Alexei was still out cold by the time I crawled away from him and used the bathroom to freshen up. I took a quick shower and added a blob of toothpaste on the tip of my finger to swipe along my teeth. Later, when I went home, I would give it a good scrub with a proper toothbrush.

Once I was finished, I left the bathroom, surprised to see Alexei sitting up, talking on his phone. His voice was a delicious rasp as he rubbed his eyes and rolled his neck. His eyes caught mine, smouldering. Without taking his eyes off me, he gestured to his lap, 'come here' he mouthed.

I practically skipped to him.

Just as I approached the side of the bed, he hauled me over his body until I was straddling his thighs. His lips skimmed my forehead briefly before he returned to speaking into his phone.

"Yeah, I'll be there."

Jude's voice came from the other line, "At noon, we'll assemble."

"Alright boss, I'll be there."

The line beeped, ending the call.

"What's going on?" I asked, brushing my thumbs across his jaw. He turned his head, nipping my fingers and pressing a kiss on both my wrists.

"Jude will be announcing the news to the Pack today about the Blue Cave Pack. He wants me to come early."

"You sound unsure."

"Not of Jude but the whole situation with Bennett."

"No one trusts him."

"I don't know how the Pack will react to all this. Jude is a wise guy. The Pack always have been loyal to him but having a whole other Pack here with us, especially Bennett's could make people uncomfortable. They might even demand a new Alpha."

I dragged my palm to his chest, feeling the rapid pace of his heart. "Relax. This is Jude Slater we're talking about. We don't need to trust Bennett. Everyone just needs to trust Jude. Jude has never failed anyone in the Pack before. He won't start now. I'm sure he has something planned."

Alexei set his chin on the crown of my head, inhaling deep. "Trust Jude huh? That's it?"

"Yes, and stop sounding so mellow about it. I can sense that you're not smiling."

When I rocked back, my words were confirmed.

He was wearing an upside-down smiley face.

To be fair, he was still half asleep, but he seemed completely lax beneath me as I rubbed the back of his neck. His eyes fluttered shut as he rested the back of his head against the headboard. "That feels good." He whispered, rolling his shoulders too.

I dug my fingers into the tense muscles, drawing circles into his skin. "Want more?" I pitched my voice lower, so it was a seductive drawl that oozed off like velvet.

"A bit harder Solnishko." He replied, "Yeah, that's it. Keep going. Don't fucking stop."

I snorted, amused as he slowly opened one eye to peek down at me. "Like this baby?" I squeezed one spot on his shoulder hard, kneading out the tension there.

His eyelashes fluttered as he tipped his head back, swallowing hard. I watched his throat bob. His hands suddenly gripped my hips, angling it in a way I could feel how much I was affecting him. "You're trying to kill me. I know it."

"I'm pretty fond of you to let you go for now."

"You're not tired?" He asked, forcing his eyelids open to watch me intently.

"Insatiable." I offered.

A quick smile flashed across his lips. "We have time." He hinted, holding my hips tight so I would move against him.

"The wall." I smirked.

Alexei blinked, confused. "The wall?" He glanced around his bedroom with a small wrinkle depressed between his thick brows.

I didn't give him any warning.

I pounced off the bed and pulled off my tee, discarding it somewhere where I didn't really care. The protest in Alexei's throat disappeared as his eyes ate me up whole. His lips parted while his gaze trailed along my bared skin. It felt like a physical touch as he studied my pebbled nipples in the lightly sun-bathed room of dawn filtering through the gaps in the curtain.

I made sure he watched as I found a spot and pressed up against it with my palms flat against the wall. I tipped my ass back, forming a perfect arch just as Alexei slid off the bed, tugging his sleep shorts off.

His cock was thick and stiff as he pumped it a few times.

"Fuck me hard against the wall Mr Vasiliev."

Alexei stumbled but swiftly regained his footing as he approached me on soundless feet. "Show me how much you want me. Bend over a little more and show me how wet you are."

I gave him a sly grin before bending slightly, making a deeper arch.

Alexei stood behind me, leaning over me as he laced his fingers over mine against the walls. I felt the soft feel of his cock against my slit, parting my lower lips as it slicked the tip of his with my arousal. "Wet enough for you?" I asked.

His hips dug into my ass as the tip of his cock slid an inch inside my pussy.

Alexei moaned into my neck, gripping my hands tight. "Guide me in Solnishko. I want to feel all of you all over my dick."

I reached down and grabbed his cock. It pulsed, hot and thick in my hand. His moan was immediate upon contact. I felt his teeth dancing along the base of my neck, teasing...tasting...seeking.

When I positioned him, I pushed back slowly, moaning with each inch of his cock I took.

His lips parted over my pulse as his big hands gripped my tits, pulling me close to his chest. "You like the way your pussy sucks in my cock?"

"You know I do." I gasped when he licked down my neck, "I love every inch."

"I know you do."

I groaned when his hips rolled against mine in long, slow strokes. He was going slow as his fingers began to pluck and pinch my nipples.

Each time, I felt close, he would stop moving and place a tender kiss on my shoulder blade.

He knew what he was doing because his chuckle was a tease against my hair.

He drew his hips back slowly, taking his slick length before pushing into me with force, my walls clenched over his member.

I was so wet to the point his cock slid in and out of me without too much resistance. My arousal was enough to wet his cock.

"Stop teasing me. I'm so close." I whined after he fucked me in slow strokes for another, five long minutes.

I felt his teeth against my neck.

I froze, halting my hips from rolling back into his cock.

"What would you do if I claimed here, you right here, right now?" He asked, "I want to claim you. I want my mark on you. I want everyone to know you're mine."

My lips dried as his words settled over me.

I think I was in shock.

I may have taken too long to process my words because Alexei withdrew completely from me. I felt his loss immediately, protesting with a small noise. His hands turned me around until I was facing him. I noted his chest had a light sheen of sweat over it, like mine. The ends of his hair were damp too and his cheeks...they were pink. My gaze drifted pass his abdominal muscles, to his thick cock brushing my thigh. It was still coated in my arousal. He closed his eyes briefly, gripping his cock to stave off his release. "Don't look at me like that. We should have this conversation now."

"But I was so close-"

"-as was I but this is more important." Alexei grabbed one of his pillows, placing it over his lap. hiding his cock from view. He sat at the bed, although he did look tremendously uncomfortable.

I ignored my aroused state. "Ok, let's chat." I sat beside him, against the headboard. I swiped up the sheets, gathering it over my body as I pressed my thighs together.

Alexei remained sitting, panting. His eyes were still dilated from pleasure. "Solnishko."

I shifted, aware that I was still aching.

Alexei noted the move. His throat bobbed as he clenched his jaw, "I want you to be mine Pen. I want my mark on you."

I nodded, "I want it too."

His chest shuddered as he released the pillow. I watched as he crawled over, until he was hovering over me. He perched one elbow near my right cheek while he brushed his fingers over the edge of the sheet I had covered my body. "Tilt your head back." He said softly. I felt his fingers walk along my collarbone as I craned my neck, so the sensitive skin there was exposed.

I felt his warm breath first before the touch of his velvet lips.

My core pulse with anticipation.

"You're mine Solnishko."

"And you're mine."

Alexei growled in approval as his fingers found their way into my hair, bunching it up so more of my skin was revealed. "This won't hurt." He whispered, just as his teeth sank into my skin.

I moaned, holding his firm shoulders in a tight grip. The small sting didn't last more than a second. There was just a small pinch, a slight burn before I felt his tongue lapping the indents in slow, wet strokes.

I felt my wolf shiver as Alexei began to trail kisses along the slope of my neck. When he reached the base, he sucked lightly, eliciting another set of shivers from both me and my wolf.

In a daze, I relaxed into Alexei's touch. I felt him pull away the sheet from between our bodies, letting it pool on the side of the bed. His thighs stretched my legs open, until I was nothing but submissive under his touch. When he rocked back to see the spot between our legs, he bit his lip, breathing slow.

I was still throbbing for him.

The tip of his cock brushed against my clit. I gasped, holding onto his waist as he did this over and over again until I couldn't take it. I nipped his lip, "Alexei."

His hands gripped my hips, lifting until he had the perfect angle.

When he did, he thrust his cock into me without warning.

I gasped, gripping onto his biceps as he slowly pulled out, only to slam his way back in mercilessly.

Alexei gave me barely any time to catch a breath as his hips hammered into me. His mouth caught most of my moans, muffling it under his wicked tongue.

I felt my grasp on him slipping as the bed moved from his thrusts. I latched on his hair with one hand, which earned me a flash of dark eyes. His gaze hadn't left mine once since he claimed my pussy.

His fingers clasped my jaw, before he dipped two between my lips. "Soak them with your spit." He demanded hoarsely.

I kept his gaze as I curled my tongue around his fingers, sucking both digits. His body shuddered in response. "Wet enough for you?" I asked.

"More than enough." He whispered against my lips as he placed those soaked fingers right on top of my clit and began to rub it.

"Alexei-" I croaked, closing my eyes.

"If only you could see how much you're dripping on my cock. Such a pretty picture." He pinched my clit, rubbing more circles on it.

"I'm so close, Alexei-"

"Give it to me. You're fucking soaked."

I felt my walls clamp on his cock as my release shot through my body, making my muscles tense from the gravity of it.

"Fuck, I'm almost there." Alexei squeezed my hips, hefting me up until my bottom half wasn't even touching the mattress. He rammed his thickness into me relentlessly, chasing his release with fervour. After several long thrusts, his muscles tensed as he flung his head back and roared.

We stayed liked that for a few suspended seconds.

I threw an arm around my eyes, catching my breath. I felt Alexei slowly release my legs. His cock still pulsed inside of me, where I could feel his release dripping from my slit.

When I opened my eyes, Alexei's gaze shone brightly. He dipped his head, claiming my lips in a long, passionate kiss that stole more of my breath away. His hips slowly rocked against me, until he withdrew, taking his cock with him. His lips rested against my forehead for a few more seconds as we simply savoured the each other's touch.

A thought bloomed in my mind as I drew my fingers along his chest.

Alexei was my home.
