Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future novel Chapter 23

Bronx's POV

 

I wake up in the morning to find Kas and my bodies are completely intertwined. She didn't wake up once all night. No crying, no nightmares, or screaming. Just peaceful sleep. I nuzzle her sparkly silver hair, breathing in her scent feeling completely content.

 

Feeling her all over me, combined with her scent and our mate bond, I start to get aroused.

 

Saint howls with excitement, 'Okay, wake her up so we can mate already!" 2

 

"Stop it, Saint."

 

"Can we at least mark her?"

 

"Saint, I said knock it off."

 

"Prude." 7”

 

Just then, Kas rolls away from me with a sleepy little groan as she rubs her eyes and opens them, "It's morning already?"

 

"Yeah, Baby. You slept all night! How do you feel?" I sit up and realize her legs are still draped over mine.

 

"Really good!" She sits up and stretches. I see the top buttons of her shirt have come

 

undone. I turn my head with a gulp. My movement makes her look down and gasp. Seeing she's almost exposed, she instinctively turns toward me for protection and presses her body against me to hide.

 

The Goddess is testing me for sure.

 

“Fail the test! Fail the test!" Saint chants in my mind as he tries to push his way to the front. ’ “Kas, I told you I would control myself. If I'm going to keep that promise, I need to get up and go get a cold shower right now. This was only our first night together. I don't want to press my luck.”

 

A mischievous look comes across her face. I don't think she realizes her violet eyes flash as Lex comes close to the surface.

 

Kas speaks, but it isn't her voice. Lex's voice comes through huskier and more confident than Kas, "Bronx, before you go I just want to give you a little kiss.” »

 

Before I can stop her, she crawls up on my lap and straddles me. I can't help but let out a low growl as I feel her press the skin of her half open shirt against my chest and she starts kissing me. My hands grip her hips tightly, pulling her closer until she is pressed against my aroused cock. She takes my hands and moves them for me so one is caressing her breast under her shirt, the other firmly on her ass. I rub and gently pull on her nipple while we kiss. I don't even realize what I'm doing as my mouth leaves hers and moves down her neck. I start to lick and suck on the spot I will mark her and she lets out a little moan at the sensation. She breathes heavily as she nibbles on my ear, holding the back of my neck. The body heat between us makes me want to be even closer to her.

 

I don't notice my fangs are extended until I feel the pressure of her skin starting to puncture and she lets out a moaning growl of pleasure, bringing me to my senses. :

 

Whoa. No. Wait. No. I was about to mark her? What the Hell was I thinking? I push Saint as far back in my mind as I can. It's way too

 

soon. We can not mark each other yet. We have no idea what would happen to either of us if we did and I'm not willing to risk it until after we know her powers are under control. I snap out of it and I open my eyes. I see Kas is glowing purple. No, WE are glowing purple. It's the sobering reminder that we don't know the full extent of her powers.

 

“Nope nope nope. Not today, Kas. Nope, I made a promise. I - and - nope. We're glowing and I can't - wait - it's just - I just - nope," I can't even make a complete sentence. I pick her up off of me, put her on the bed, and run to the bathroom as fast as I can. I turn the shower on and stand under the freezing water for what seems like forever until I'm calmed down and no longer glowing. °

 

"You're such a buzzkill," Saint chides after I chastise him for trying to mark Kas.

 

By the time I shower, change, and come out of the closet room, Kas had already changed into a dress and braided her hair.

 

"I'm sorry, Bronx. I'm not quite sure what came over me. I-”

 

"It's okay, Baby. You don't need to apologize. Our bond is strong. Our wolves's bond is strong. I'm an Alpha Regent and you're a literal goddess. Of course the closer we are to each other, the more we want to, you know, be with each other. We met each other over a month ago and just kissed for the first time yesterday. Saint and Lex are definitely influencing us. We just need to hold out.”
