Rejecting My Lycan Mate: Finding My Wolf: Chapter 86

Dimitri’s POV

My heart rate finally slowed down a little. I raised my head and looked at my beautiful mate.

I smiled at her and she sighed contently. She ran her fingers through my hair and an overwhelming wave of love washed over me. I recognized it as her emotions and my heart skipped a beat.

“I can feel your love for me,” I mumbled as I leaned in and kissed her cheek softly. “I love you just as much, Maddie. I love you with every piece of my heart.”

“I know,” she said as she tangled her fingers into my hair and placed a soft kiss on my lips.

I kissed her back and pulled out of her. I could feel the base of my dick starting to swell and I didn’t want to knot her. Not yet.

She moaned quietly and closed her eyes. She was still sensitive.

I lay next to her and pulled her to me immediately. She leaned her chin on my chest and looked up at me. I ran my hand down her naked back and smiled at her.

“I love you,” I said again.

I couldn’t stop saying that. It felt amazing and the spark I saw in her eyes each time I said those words made my heart skip a beat.

“I love you too,” she said softly as she placed a small kiss on my chest.

I tangled my fingers into her hair and lifted my head a little so I could kiss her forehead.

“Are you okay, princess?” I asked her. “Did it hurt bad?”

She shook her head immediately.

“No,” she said, giving me a small smile. “It was amazing. Thank you for being so patient and gentle with me.”

I cupped her cheek and leaned in to kiss her.

“Always,” I said. “I will always be patient and gentle, princess.”

Well, the gentle part was going to have to be discussed a bit later on. I would make love to her, but I would also fuck her, and I didn’t plan to be gentle then.

She smiled and laid her head on my chest.

I ran my fingers through her hair and took a deep breath. I released it slowly and smiled. This was all I ever wanted.

“I can’t believe that you are finally mine,” I mumbled, making her look back up at me.

“I was always yours,” she said. “Even before I knew it.”

I smiled and nodded. A thought came into my mind and I instinctively frowned.

“What’s wrong?” she asked worriedly.

I gulped and caressed her cheek. I wanted to ask her something, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to know the answer.

“Dimitri?” she called me worriedly.

I leaned in and kissed her forehead. I took a deep breath and tightened my arms around her.

“Was there someone before me?” I asked. “Did you like someone before me? I mean, I know that you never slept with anyone before me, but did you do something else with someone else?”

Jealousy was clear in my voice and I knew how hypocritical that was of me. I slept with someone else. She knew about it. She had to listen to lies about her child being mine.

“Oh,” she said, chuckling a little. “No. There was no one else before you. I was mostly alone growing up due to Mike leaving me and my mom. When I became a bit older I had to take care of my mom. Boys weren’t even on my mind.”

She smiled and I let out a relieved breath.

“I did have a silly crush on a boy once, though,” she said, chuckling again. “I didn’t even know his name, but he saved me so I kind of liked him.”

Great. I was now jealous of someone neither she nor I knew.

“Saved you from who, princess?” I asked, trying to hide the jealousy in my voice.

Maddie sighed and furrowed her eyebrows a little.

“Kids were sometimes mean to me in school,” she said, making my protective instincts flare up. “They would mock me because I didn’t have a dad. One day I was leaving school when one of my classmates tripped me, pulled my hair, and started mocking me.”

She sighed and smiled a little.

“This tall boy with blue eyes and dark hair came to my rescue,” she continued. “He chased the bullies away, wiped the tears from my cheeks, and told me that everything would be okay.”

My heart stopped beating.

“I never saw him again after that,” she added with a sigh. “I never got to tell him how grateful I was.”

I was staring at her wide-eyed and I wasn’t even breathing. She stopped smiling when she saw the shocked expression on my face.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, panicking a little.

She was really always mine.

She was mine before she knew that she was my mate. She was mine before I knew that she was my mate.

She was mine since she was 12 years old.

A smile started spreading across my face. Maddie’s confusion only grew.

“Blue eyes and dark hair?” I asked, my voice quiet.

She nodded and started studying my face carefully. Her eyebrows furrowed a little and I saw the exact moment when she realized why I asked her that question.

“I was on a work trip with my dad because I was going to take over the pack soon,” I started telling her the story of how she was always fucking mine. “We were visiting the Red Moon pack and we were just walking by a school when I saw a really mean boy trip a little girl with the cutest braids. I got so angry at him and I immediately ran to help her.”

I gulped and I saw a tear fall on Maddie’s cheek.

“I chased the boy away and helped the little girl,” I continued, my voice trembling. “She looked so sad and helpless and my heart broke for her. I told her that everything would be okay. I told her that she would become a strong woman and no one would ever be able to bully her again.”

Maddie sobbed quietly.

“It was you,” she mumbled. “It was always you.”

I pulled her in and kissed her hard.

“It was always me and it will always be me,” I mumbled against her lips.

She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me hard. I pressed her close to me and let myself enjoy the feeling of her body completely wrapped around mine.

I was always hers. I was the boy she liked.
