Hated By The Alpha-Chapter 188: Raw Feelings

Audrey obeyed, slowly turning over with a soft, deliberate sway of her hips, arching her back as she rose to her knees on the couch. Her cheek pressed to the cushion, and her hands clutched the edge of the sofa. She was breathless and flushed, her hair a wild halo around her face, and her body trembling with anticipation.

Lake’s breath hitched at the sight. "You have no idea what you do to me," he murmured, dragging his fingers down the curve of her back until they gripped her hips. "So beautiful... so fucking mine."

He slid back inside her slowly, groaning as he filled her again. Audrey let out a whimper, pushing back against him, needing more—needing him. Lake leaned over, his chest pressing against her back as he whispered against her ear, "You said you were open to me... then show me, Audrey. Show me everything."

"I am," she gasped, rotating her hips as he began to thrust into her deeply. "This is me... stripped, exposed... I only do this with you, Lake."

He paused inside her for a moment, buried to the hilt, his voice tight, low. "Then don’t ever hide again. Don’t ever make me question what we are."

Audrey turned her head slightly, just enough to meet his eyes. "You don’t need to question it. You’re already under my skin. I feel you, Lake... in my bones."

That was all he needed.

Lake began moving again—slow, deliberate strokes at first, each thrust grinding into her with a precision that left her clinging to the cushions, crying out his name. One hand left her hip and snaked under her to cup her breast, his fingers rolling her nipple between thrusts while the other held her firmly in place.

"You’re mine, Audrey. Say it," he growled, hips slapping against her skin.

"I’m yours," she sobbed, her body pulsing around him, "only yours."

The pressure built again, that molten tension spiraling between them as if the air itself had turned electric.

He reached around again, finding her clit, circling it with just the right amount of pressure. "Let go for me again. I want to feel you break."

Audrey’s scream echoed in the room as her orgasm crashed into her like a wave, her entire body convulsing beneath him. That tight, wet pulse around his cock dragged Lake over the edge with a raw, broken groan. He held her tightly as he emptied himself deep inside her, their sweat-slick bodies trembling with release, clinging to each other like it was the only thing that kept them grounded.

Silence filled the room, save for their heavy breathing.

Lake leaned down, brushing her damp hair aside to press a kiss to her neck. "You’re everything I never thought I deserved," he whispered, still inside her, unwilling to pull away. "But I’m not letting you go. Not now. Not ever."

Audrey turned her head, her cheek still against the cushion, and met his eyes with the faintest smile. "Then don’t."

Morning. Golden sun. Naked bodies cuddled warm and closely on the bed.

They were a perfect muse for an artist.

Audrey cuddled closer to Lake, pressing her breasts on his sides.

Lake instinctively drew her closer, his arm wrapping possessively around her.

He opened his eyes and stared at her beautiful, sleeping face in front of him.

"You’re making me shy, Lake. Stop staring," She whispered and slowly opened her eyes to look at him.

A smile graced Lake’s lips, his fingers sneaking into her hair to massage her scalp.

He leaned his face closer to hers, whispering, "There’s nothing to be shy about, Audrey. You’re perfect." He kissed her forehead.

"And I don’t recall someone being shy all night, Moma," He teased, loving the blush that appeared on her cheeks.

"Stop it," She slapped his chest and wanted to pull away from him but he drew her closer.

"Fine, I’ll stop," He whispered and kissed her.

Audrey sighed into their slow, morning kiss, loving every second of it.

She’d been alone for five long years, this was her time to catch up for her missed affection from Lake.

Lake’s tongue molded against hers, lips locked in.

Lake gently pulled Audrey over his body, slowly withdrawing his mouth from hers.

"Good morning, My love," Lake greeted tenderly.

Audrey couldn’t help the giggle that left her lips, "Good morning, baby," She kissed his cheek.

"I want to make love to you," He confessed.

Audrey blushed, "Again?" She asked.

"What do expect from an Alpha in love?" His hands traced her curves, playfully slapping her ass.

"I would love to, but, I’ve got a bay to feed and guests to attend to." She reminded.

Lake sighed, "Please?" His fingers caressed her thigh, slipping between her legs.

Audrey gasped as Lake’s finger teased her entrance, "Lake... stop," She whimpered softly.

Lake shook his head, "I don’t want to be away from you today. Let me help you make breakfast then we can meet Melody and her weird friend together," he suggested.

Audrey smiled, "Okay, but you need to - ah... get your finger out of my pussy," She breathed out.

"Fine," He removed his finger from her and carried her off the bed and into the bathroom, "I’m not leaving without a quickie, Sweetheart..." he turned on the shower and turned Audrey so she faced the wall.

"Yes?" He asked huskily beside her ear, his hands cupping her breasts.

Audrey pushed her ass against his cock, "Yes," She moaned.

"Hey, don’t hurt anyone, okay?" Sebastian held Green by the arm as she was about to step out of the pack’s coffee.

He had followed her there in secret and had only shown himself when he saw that she was about to go up to Melody and Ava who were on their way to the pack house.

Green paused, not turning to look at Sebastian, "Get your hands off me, Alpha," She said.

Sebastian wanted to release her but changed his mind, "No," He drew her back into the café and toward his table.

Ignoring the eyes of curious pack members around the café, he drew out a chair from under the table and pointed to it, "Sit."

"No, Alpha," She said quietly.

Sebastian chuckled and stepped closer to her, "Why do I feel like you’re flirting with me each time you call me Alpha?" He questioned, raising his finger to touch her face but it got slapped away.

"Ouch!" He frowned.

"Learn to distinguish between flirting and mocking," Green shot at him and turned to leave.

Sebastian wasn’t letting her walk away just yet; he quickly caught her arm and pulled her into his arms.

Green was frozen, she stared at Sebastian with widened eyes, not believing that he dared to play this way in public.

"Oh, gosh, would you look at that? Who knew the witch could blush? And so beautifully, too," Sebastian smirked, still not releasing Green, his eyes admiring her face.

"Let go of me and don’t cause a scene," Green said in a small voice, wishing the ground would open and suck her out of this crazy man’s arms.

Sebastian leaned his face closer, "A scene would be me kissing you because you’re being stubborn. Choose one, a kiss, or a sit?" He whispered.

Green quietly gulped, "I’ll sit," She replied.

"Wise choice," Sebastian led her to the chair and let her sit before he drew his chair close to her and sat down, too.

Green sighed and placed her hands on the table, "You know I can get into your head and compel you to let me go, right?" She asked coldly.

Sebastian gently placed his hand over hers on the table, "But you didn’t. Because you want to talk to me, too," He replied to her, smiling.

Green drew her hand away from him, "Was this where you stalked me from? Why are you following me?" She changed the topic.

"And, you don’t need to get into my head to compel me. You’re already in my head; just say the word, and I’ll do it," He whispered, placing his hand on the side of Green’s face.

Their eyes locked for a moment, a deep meaningful silence stretching between them.

"Pfft!" Green suddenly burst out laughing, shifting away from Sebastian. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Sebastian was quiet, staring at her. He didn’t think anything was funny, he had just told her how he felt but she chose to laugh it off.

"That was lame, Alpha. Whoever that girl is will surely turn you down," She sniffed.

Sebastian sighed, "At least I made you laugh..." he said.

"You have a beautiful laugh, by the way," He complimented.

"So, why are you keeping me here?" Green turned serious.

"There you go, ignoring my compliments again," Sebastian murmured, looking away from her.

Green glanced at his sad face for a second, "Then stop giving them, Alpha. Expectation kills," She said, placing her hand on his knee.

Sebastian held her hand and brought it up to his lips, kissing the back of it, "It’s my choice to expect, and it’s your choice to either kill or nurture my expectations," He whispered behind her hand.
