“Shh, pup. No more tears, baby. You are my mate. Whether you understand fully what that means right now or not, you will come to understand as my mate I am here to take care of you just as you are here to take care of me. We belong to each other. Your troubles are mine to bear as well, Seth.” Kasey ran his hands down Seth’s back in a comforting gesture. “You don’t have to go through anything alone ever again.”
Seth sobbed harder as he threw his arms around Kasey’s back and buried his face in his mate’s neck. For a moment, he was airborne when Kasey picked him up and strode over to the waiting room couch. He clung to the big Cheyenne even harder, his slight frame shuddering with each gulp of air he took into his lungs. It took several long moments before Seth was able to calm down. It had been so long since he’d felt like he belonged somewhere.
“Better?” Kasey asked, his fingers sifting through the hair behind Seth’s ear.
“I’m sorry,” he muttered, embarrassed at how badly he’d broken down.
Kasey tilted Seth’s head back far enough that he could look into his mate’s red-rimmed eyes. “Don’t be sorry, baby. You never have to be scared to show your emotions in front of me.”
Wrinkling his nose at Kasey, Seth decided to look around his newly repaired clinic with a less overwhelmed view. He would find a way to repay the pack members for their kindness. He eagerly stood up and walked toward the examining rooms, then further still to the kennel in the back. Stopping at the door leading into his office, Seth let his hand hover over the doorknob for a moment at the memory of Ginger and the condition of his office the last time he’d seen her. He bit his lip and opened the door.
The only smells were of fresh paint and new carpet. Seth’s eyes widened as he saw he even had a new desk and couch. “Kasey….”
His mate appeared beside him in an instant. “What’s wrong, pup?”
“I don’t know if I can go back to my house,” he murmured in a rough voice. “The memory of B-Bullet and… and….”
Kasey stopped the flow of words by pressing two fingers across Seth’s lips. “Baby, stop. You aren’t going back to your house. I want you… I’d hoped you’d agree to move in with me.”
A surprised breath escaped Seth. “Really?”
“Of course. We’re mates, and I intend to sleep every night with that hot, sexy body of yours next to me.” Kasey had a slightly guilty look on his face. “And I… ah… already had Nick bring your stuff to my house.”
Seth’s eyebrow arched. “Oh, is that right?”
Giving Seth a chagrinned look, Kasey replied, “I didn’t think you’d mind.”
“Taking advantage of the situation, wouldn’t you say?” Seth started pushing Kasey backward to the leather couch. He shoved lightly once the backs of Kasey’s knees hit the couch and watched in satisfaction as his mate had no choice but to sit down. Placing his knees on either side of Kasey’s legs, Seth straddled his lover and ran his hands down Kasey’s chest. “Am I going to have to beg you, Sheriff?”
Kasey gave Seth a confused look. “Beg me for what, pup?”
Grinning mischievously, Seth leaned in close to Kasey’s ear. “To fuck me, Sheriff.” He nipped at the lobe of Kasey’s ear.
His mate’s body responded at Seth’s words, and Seth ground down into Kasey’s lap. “Seth… pup.”
“No,” Seth growled lustily. “You’ve denied me for two long nights where I thought I would go insane with wanting you. No longer.”
Surprised, Kasey stared at his lover. Seth had never taken the initiative, and Kasey bit back a groan when Seth rocked against his extremely hard cock. It might have been torture for Seth the past two nights, but it had been sheer agony for Kasey not to claim his mate again, marking him once more. He’d only wanted to ensure his mate had healed completely before he claimed him again. “Nngh, Seth,” he moaned as Seth continued to dry hump him.
Seth made short work of the buttons on Kasey’s shirt, spreading it open to greedily take in the sight of his mate’s broad, tan chest and the hard, dusky nipples. He dove down and pulled one into his mouth while smoothing his palms across the dense muscles of his lover’s body. The swift intake of breath sent a thrill through Seth. It made him feel powerful to know he affected his mate as much as Kasey affected him. He bit down gently, and Kasey’s hips bucked up from the couch. Chuckling, Seth shifted to the other dark nub, sucking it wetly between his lips.
His hands expertly slid Kasey’s belt through the buckle as Kasey watched him, desire glittering in his eyes. Seth unzipped his pants, slipped his hand inside, and lightly squeezed his mate’s cock through his underwear. “Mmm, I think I found what I’d like for dessert,” Seth said slyly, his lips twisting in a smirk.
A groan rattled in Kasey’s throat at the feel of Seth’s hand on him, but his words sent him up in flames. He reached out and abruptly pulled his mate’s shirt over his head, baring his slim chest to his wandering hands. Seth grabbed at his wrists, pinning his hands to the couch. “Uh-uh. My turn, love.”
It took every ounce of Kasey’s strength not to ignore Seth’s command and haul his mate against him. His cock jumped as Seth parted the front of his pants and lifted Kasey’s hard length free. Slithering out of Kasey’s lap to the floor, Seth looked up into Kasey’s dark eyes as his light-pink tongue flicked out to taste his lover. “Shit, pup,” Kasey swore, his hands gripping the cushions of the couch.
Seth chuckled quietly before dipping into the small slit at the tip to gather the pearl of fluid seeping freely. “You taste good,” he murmured, sliding his tongue around the head slowly.
He leisurely, tenderly inched his lips down the shaft while his tongue wetly bathed the pulsing vein underneath. Seth lightly fondled Kasey’s balls as he sucked gently, not enough to make Kasey come but just enough to make his sac tighten in preparation. Reaching down, he unbuttoned his own jeans and pulled his cock out, stroking himself at the same pace as his mouth slurped along his mate’s shaft. Kasey’s hand came to rest on the back of his head, sifting through his hair lovingly. “Fuck, Seth. Your mouth is so fucking hot.”
Grinning around Kasey’s dick, Seth hummed softly, causing Kasey to thrust upward at the vibrations running straight down to his balls. “Seth!”
He could sense Kasey wasn’t too far away from the edge, and Seth stopped, sitting back on his heels. A disappointed look flashed over Kasey’s features. Seth’s cock bobbed in front of him, begging him to continue as he stood, stripping all of his clothing off. “I’m not done with you yet, Sheriff,” Seth purred seductively, his blue eyes a stormy gray.
Seth offered two of his fingers to Kasey as he straddled his mate’s lap, lovingly tracing the lines of his mate’s mouth. “Wet them,” he commanded huskily.
Kasey’s fingers dug even deeper into the couch cushions as he realized what Seth’s intentions were, and he eagerly sucked the digits between his lips, slathering them repeatedly with his tongue. His eyes never left Seth’s during the bathing of his mate’s fingers. A growl rattled in Kasey’s chest at the sight of Seth sinking down onto the invading digits. A twinkle of mischief in Seth’s eyes made Kasey snarl, “If you don’t hurry up, pup, I’m going to finish that for you.”
The only response Seth gave was a rough laugh, his breathing uneven. Using his free hand, he reached behind him and stroked Kasey’s shaft, smearing the liquid gathering at the tip with his thumb. Guiding his mate’s cock, Seth pressed downward, biting his lip as the flared head breached the tight muscle. A hiss whispered between Seth’s lips as the shaft sank deep inside him. Kasey’s hands came up to grip his hips in a hard grip.
Both of them released a loud moan the instant Seth sat fully on Kasey’s cock. “You feel so good,” Kasey said roughly, thrusting up into his mate.
Seth gripped Kasey’s shoulders, tipping his head back in pleasure. He slowly began to ride Kasey, lifting himself up and dropping back down. Kasey’s fingers dug into his flesh, but the pain only added to the song his body felt with his mate deep inside of him. He captured Kasey’s lips in a searing kiss, darting his tongue in and out of his lover’s mouth, imitating the actions of their bodies. Slow and intimate, there was no sense of urgency to their lovemaking, just the joy of being one together.
Sweat built on their flesh, searing their keen noses with the salty-scented fluid. Seth lapped at Kasey’s throat, tasting his lover’s skin, lust singing inside him. Kasey wrapped his arms around Seth, pulling him down for each plunge into his mate’s snug passage. His fangs elongated as he neared the edge of his climax. His balls grew tight, the need to fill his mate’s channel and claim him as his growing stronger. “Seth,” Kasey ground out, “need you to come.”
Pulling Kasey’s mouth to his neck, Seth keened, “Please….”
Kasey bit down deeply, flooding his mouth with his pup’s essence. Seth’s inner muscles clamped down like a vice on Kasey’s cock as his mate released between. He felt the hot seed splash across his stomach. The sweet tang of his pup’s come and the feel of his tight hole fluttering around his hard shaft triggered Kasey’s own orgasm. Letting out an almost yelping whine, Kasey shattered into a shuddering mess. His chest heaved with each shaking breath he took.
Seth collapsed onto Kasey’s chest, moaning, his eyes closed. The sweat cooled on their skin slowly, sending a shiver through Seth as the air-conditioning kicked on. Kasey reached out and pulled the blanket folded over the back of the couch around them to cover his mate’s chilled flesh. “You’re going to wear me out, pup,” he said tiredly, pressing a kiss to Seth’s temple.
Laughing breathlessly, Seth wrinkled his nose at Kasey without opening his eyes. “Me? Wear you out?”
“Uhm hmm,” Kasey hummed. “You and that luscious body of yours I can’t get enough of.”
“Somehow I think you’ll wear me out first.” Seth finally gathered enough strength to look up into his mate’s eyes. “Thank you for my clinic, Kasey.”
Kasey smiled at Seth’s words. “You’re my mate and a part of my pack, pup. Of course I’m going to do whatever I can to help you out. You just need to learn to listen to your Alpha.”
Seth’s eyebrows went up at Kasey’s words. “My Alpha? Who said you were my Alpha?”
A superior look crossed Kasey’s features. “I did.”
Indignation flared in Seth’s eyes. He opened his mouth to argue, but Kasey cut him off with a deep kiss. Seth’s lips were swollen and red by the time Kasey let him breathe, and whatever he’d been about to say was simply forgotten. “Love you, pup,” Kasey whispered against Seth’s mouth.
“Love you too, mate,” Seth sighed as he snuggled closer to his sheriff.
