Chapter 16 - Dinner

EVADIENE

I woke up in Ambrose’s arms and rolled over to see he was already awake. “Morning.”

He chuckled. “Evening.”

I glanced toward the window to see that outside was dark. “How late?”

He lifted his head slightly. “Around five pm.”

I groaned. “Dinner time.”

“We don’t have to go,” he offered, nuzzling his nose into my cheek and I couldn’t help but giggle at him.

“No, wouldn’t want you wasting in on yourself. I like it when my guys have something to hold on to.” I smirked and grabbed his hip that was no where near as curvaceous as mine.

“Are you calling me fat?!” He scoffed, grabbing my own hips and pulling me closer against him.

“Fat? Never,-“ I slipped my hand over to feel him up. “Thick? Mmmm. .. maybe.”

He groaned long and loud, letting his head tip back and his eyes close. “Evadiene..”

I had to hold myself back from correcting him, wanting to hear him say myrealname.

I reached over and smacked his ass. “Come on, let’s freshen up for dinner. Wouldn’t want you to miss out on showing off your new arm candy to all the boys.”

I turned to roll off my side of the bed but he caught me, pulled my face back to into his and planted a firm kiss like a seed. “You are far more than eye candy, you are not a trophy or a ball and chain. Yes, you are my mate but long before that you were Evadiene Vesper a multi talented woman with more skills than sense when it came to letting me love her.”

My eyes were huge as I stared at him, my heart clenching to imagine leaving his side. He was too good for anyone, and I certainly didn’t deserve someone so perfect. As I continued to stare he smirked and kissed the tip of my nose.

“I realize you were teasing me because you are a strong, independent woman who doesn’t need a man, and I may have gotten a bit carried away, but I do. I meant every word.” He kissed my nose again. “I love you. Now hurry up and get ready, I gotta show all the boys how hot my bitch is.”

“Hey!” I yelled, moving to hit him in the chest but damn-it if he wasn’t fast as a puppy.

My heart was still racing at his declaration as Ichased him into the bathroom. I made getting ready take twice as long as I ‘trapped’ Ambrose against the counter to take control ofhisheart rate. I wrapped my arms around his neck pressing myself tightly against him and running my thigh between his legs. He lost himself with me for a minute, his eyes closing as he focused on everywhere him and I met.

When he realized I had been distracting him I felt his lips curve against mine. He picked me up and sat me on the counter, making my chest line up for him to place his chin between them. He groaned into my breasts and I ran my fingers through his hair, scratching his scalp lightly with my nails. This increased his sounds of pleasure, resulting in him showing his appreciation by kissing and sucking the skin at the top of my breasts. My own moans hummed through my chest to his lips, becoming harder to contain as they trailed up my neck, encircling my mark, and up to my ear.

He pulled my lobe into his mouth and I heard his breath pull down his throat as I gasped, “Ambrose!”

This encouraged him to play with my ears and my hands forgot what they were doing. I could hear his want for me, feel his hand running up the inside of my leg, and he could definitely hear my want for him.

A loud knock at the door startled me. “Put your clothes back on it’s time for dinner!” We heard Ellion yell and I laughed with only a little frustration. “It seems we’ve been summoned.

He pulled back and smirked at me, then towed me toward the shower. “Come on, Alpha is apparentlypersonallyoffended when I smell of sex.”

I gave him a confused look. “But we didn’t….”

He picked me up and pinched my bum. “Not yet.”

AMBROSE

Fuck the Alpha and hisfeelings. I ate my Evadiene in the shower until she came on my tongue and then fucked her to her second climax before we washed up and changed for dinner. She did as promised, despite my insistence that she could wear a paper bag, insisting she wanted to show her appreciation for the ‘leg shaking orgasm’. Her words, not mine. She wore a dress that fell to her knees with socks that covered her shins, short boots and a tight long sweater that flowed like a cape behind her. Most of her skin was covered, but every curve was on mouth watering display.

“I don’t know if I can let you go out there like this,” I told her, and as she turned to berate me I continued, “but I guess I can ravish you again later and show you off now.” I moved in close to her rubbing my cheek against hers. “But I’ll fight anyone who dares to look at my mate longer than it takes to be jealous.”

I started rubbing myself against her and she giggled. “What are you doing?”

“Scenting you, you will never be my property Evadiene but wolven are very territorial. Our pack is mostly males, and if I don’t announce my claim on you, others may think that they can take you or challenge my claim.” She looked more curiously at me, like she didn’t believe me. “You are gorgeous Evadiene, and brilliant. You’re a perfect mate and I will make sure that everyone knows that going near you means going through me.”

She blushed and then rubbed her cheek against mine. “Missed a spot.”

“Perfect,” I breathed, taking her in again before leading her down to the dining hall.

We were late, obviously,but she didn’t shrink away from the attention. I led her over to the main table, one in the middle of five that stuck out slightly at the end to put the Alpha apart from the rest. She noticed as I did that there wasn’t a seat for her but she didn’t hesitate, making it look like I was leading she pushed my hand into ‘guiding her’ to the chair and sitting in my lap.

Alpha smirked at her. “Ev-a-deen, do you like your seat?”

She smirked right back. “Did you ever realize you sit at the tip of a middle finger, Covyn?”

Several people gasped at her using his name but he threw his head back and laughed loudly. “Now I guess so do you,” he chuckled and people began bringing our plates.

“As if I needed another way to displease my father, I’m sitting on a middle finger of a hand made a wolven,” she muttered, stabbing a carrot with her fork and eating it pointedly.
