Chapter 21 - Sweet Surprise

--This is not for kids. This is a steamy chapter. You have received the warning now onward readers.--

Ayame had sent me off with a hug and a choice I had to make. Jack was nowhere to be found but she didn't want me walking home alone in the dark so she had asked her neighbor to walk me home. Vince had striking features that included long red hair with white highlights shining in the moonlight. His green eyes focused on the path as we walked. He hadn't said a word even when Ayame asked him to take me home. He had just nodded and waited for me to say my goodbyes. I wondered if he couldn't talk or just didn't want to.

I didn't really have time to think about his muteness though. No matter how good looking he is I already have one man at home and another that will die if I don't take him as my mate. I wanted to scream because no matter how I worded the question about Ranald it was always an I have no fucking clue as to the answer. Both choices made me want to gag. There was no way I was having sex with him and no way I wanted to watch him die.

Before I knew it I was standing in front of Orpheus's hut. Well, I guess it's now mine too. That is as soon as we do the dirty. Just thinking about it had me on edge. I really hope I don't suck at it. Vine stared at me as I just stood there like a jittery idiot. "Thanks for walking me home." I smiled before stepping toward the door.

"Your welcome." His Vince was rough and deep and gave me chills. I turned to a sudden not so mute Vince but he was already gone.

I turned away from the empty spot and pushed the fur away from the doorway. I gasped in shock at the flower petals scattered all over the floor making a path toward the back bedroom. They were all different colors and made the place smell like my favorite Bath and Body Works spring candle. I followed the petals and stood at the doorway of the backroom to find Orpheus laying sideways with his arm under his head and petals all around him. He had a small black fur draped over his midsection. His eyes are closed and he is lightly snoring. He must have been waiting quite a while and dozed off. He was handsome even as he slept. I felt bad for being so late and ruining the romance he had planned. I smiled to myself as I thought of how lucky I am to have met a sweet guy like him. I leaned in and kissed his cheek. His eyes popped open and he shot up almost headbutting me. Luckily I have fast reflexes.

He looked at me and smiled. "You're finally home." He seemed so happy and not upset at all that I kept him waiting.

"Yep, finally home. Sorry for being so late."

He shook his head and hugged me. "Not like you knew I had planned this. I am just glad you're here now." He kissed me gently at first. As the kiss got deeper he slowly pulled my shirt off.

When he went for the button of my pants I pulled back breathing heavy. "Are you sure you want to be my mate? I know little about things in this world and I won't be the type to just stay home and take care of the kids. I like being me and you don't know much about who me is. I don't want you to later regret this." I wanted him right now but I didn't want him to wish he hadn't done this later. I need to make sure this was what we both wanted.

Orpheus held my face and stroked my face with his thumb. "I want you now and for the rest of our lives. You may not know much now but you will learn. You are strong and I don't expect you to raise our pups on your own, we will do that together. I could never regret having you as my mate and can only hope you feel the same." His eyes were full of love with every word.

I leaned in and kissed the man that cared for me so much after such a short time. He began struggling with my bottom button again till he growled and just ripped them off. I would be mad if I was not so relieved to be free of them and closer to him. My underwear had gone with the pants and his hands had now reached for my bra. I stopped him and he gave me a worried look.

I laughed "I am just going to get this off myself. Don't want them to end up like those." I nodded at my torn clothes.

Orpheus looked at me apologetically "Sorry, I have furs you can where." he said as I unzipped the front of my black sports bra. It was my favorite and I was not about to let it be shredded. I let it slide off my shoulders as Orpheus's brown eyes watch hungrily. I loved that look. It made me feel gorgeous and desired.

He gently pushed me back on the furs. His eyes did not leave mine as he slowly took one of my nipples in his mouth. He teased with his tongue at first and then sucked while slowly pushing his fingers between my lower lips. As he played with me I felt like I was in heaven. I moaned loader and loader until my body felt like it would explode. When I finally did Orpheus captured my lips with his own.

He pulled away "Are you, ready love." I couldn't speak and just nodded. He slowly turned me over and then pulled my ass up and against him. I felt him slowly enter me and gasped. It hurt but not as much as I thought it would. He then began to slowly go pull out. I pushed my hips back against him missing the fullness he gave me seconds before. He laughed "Easy now I don't want to hurt you."

I turned my head and growled shocking myself a little but I wanted him. No, it was more of a need than a want. My whole body was screaming for him to take me "Please, I want you now." I pleaded with my eyes.

Orpheus let out a growl of his own and then let me have what I was craving. No more slow movements. He pumped into me hard and fast as I screamed in pleasure forgetting the world around me. Just as I felt about to explode again Orpheus leaned forward and bit my shoulder sending me over the edge as he had his own release. We lay there panting while I was curled in his arms. I had never felt so amazing before. I nuzzled my face against his chest before falling asleep.
