6 Asher

Over the course of the following month, I spent as much time as I could with my mate. Unfortunately, that meant I was away from home quite a bit but that couldn't be helped. Nai had been the one to cancel the visit to my house this time, saying that it wasn't fair on my mum. Especially since what we had was so new and may not work out in the long run. I'd scowled at him but he'd just shrugged his shoulders at me. I had to remind myself that he didn't know about the bond between us, it was for life, but he will soon enough.

Mum still won't speak to me, or even look at me. Dad keeps saying give her time but I think he's also disappointed too. That pains both me and my wolf, but my mate comes first.

'You ok?' Nai signs.

I'd finally admitted to signing up for an online ASL course so that I could communicate with him like his mum does. He smiled with warmth in his eyes and told me I didn't need to as he could lip read.

I wiggled my eyebrows at him saying I wanted to have my own private conversations with him as he does with his mum. He blushed so badly I couldn't help but laugh. Making him blush is quickly becoming my favourite thing to get him to do.

That weekend I was going to be spending it with Nai like I did most weekends, only this time we were going to be completely alone.

I'm currently driving us up to one of the log cabins the pack owns along the outskirts of pack territory. Nai is staring out of the window, his hand absentmindedly gripping my thigh.

I'd asked dad's permission to use it, he'd been reluctant but knew better than to get in between mates.

I pull up to a large wood cabin type building, I hear Nai gasp. The cabin has a wrap-around porch and large windows. Aside from the makeshift road leading to it, the cabin is completely surrounded by the forest.

My wolf is pleased that he likes what he sees, he is just as eager to impress him as I am. I grab our bags and open the front door. The rustic cabin look of the outside contradicts the sophisticated and modern look of the inside.

I smile when I hear Nai gasp again, it's almost like he doesn't know how to make any other sounds.

The first floor is an open plan, living room, dining room and kitchen area. A kitchen Island marks the start of the kitchen which is fitted out with all the modern appliances you need. Upstairs houses several bedrooms with ensuites.

I want to suggest we share a room but I don't think he will agree to that. I begrudgingly put his bag in a different room to mine and then join him back downstairs.

"This place is amazing!" he says and signs. It is something I told him to do so that I can practice.

"Glad you like it," I put back, my signing is choppy and slow.

I move towards the large fireplace and create a fire as he continues to look around, especially at all the pictures around the room. Various pack families come up here and often leave pictures as memories behind.

"You hungry?" I ask him.

He nods and smiles, still looking around. I leave him to explore as I go into the kitchen. Thankfully the kitchen is always fully stocked since the cabin gets used a lot. I rustle up some sandwiches, which to be honest is the extent of my culinary skills.

When I return to the living space he is scanning the shelves of books, gently touching each one as he reads the titles.

I put the plates down on the small table and walked up behind him. I love that he jumps a little as I wrap my arms around his waist.

"Asher, you scared me," he scolds me, as he lightly pats my arm. I chuckle against his neck. I don't know if he is aware of doing it but, he tilts his head to the side giving me better access to that slender neck of his.

I take the invitation, intentional or not, and kiss the base of his neck. The exact spot I plan on marking once he knows everything. I can only hope he can accept me and my wolf. It might kill me if he can't.

A moan escapes his lips as I move up to nibble on his ear. I can smell how excited he is getting, to be fair I'm not too far off either.

I step back and take a deep breath. He turns looking concerned, he bites his bottom lip. That small insecure action almost does me in. I'm very tempted to push him roughly up against the shelves and take him right here.

"Come on, I've made us something to eat," I say, leading him to the table.

He squeezes my hand before sitting down. I hadn't made anything fancy, just some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. He smiles as he eats them.

"Max used to make me peanut butter and jelly sandwiches too," he tells me, a sad smile on his face. A stab of jealousy flashes through me and my wolf growls.

"Max?" I ask, trying to keep the jealousy from my face.

"Yeah he was my best friend, back in my other school, you know before I came here." He smiles softly at a memory that I instantly don't like.

I knew Nai had a life before meeting me, but I didn't know there was another guy.

"Were you two ... I mean, was he ….." I can't seem to form the words 'was he your first boyfriend or were you in love with him.'

"Do you mean were we together?" he asks with a chuckle clearly enjoying himself. I can tell he knows I'm being jealous. He leans forward and grips my hand.

"I told you before Asher, you are the first person I've liked. Max was only my friend, there was never anything more." I smile, my wolf settles down satisfied.

"What was he like?" I want to know about the guy who can make Nai smile so fondly, especially now that I know it wasn't anything romantic or sexual.

"He was a troublemaker," he laughs. "To be fair to him, he only got into trouble for defending me. When the jerks would pick on me, he would punch them." I'm starting to like this Max more and more, he protected my mate.

"I like the sound of this guy," I tell Nai, who smirks at me.

"He would like the sound of you too," my eyebrows knit together. "Max was or I mean is gay, he would have described you as 'sex on legs'" he blushes a little.

I smirk at him.

"Am I?" I tease wiggling my eyebrows at him. "Am I sex on legs?"

He blushes again pulling his hand away.

"Anyway, Max got into so many fights defending me that his family pulled him out of school and moved away. Not long after that, I came here," he finishes ignoring my smirk.

"I hope one day I can meet him again," he sighs wistfully.

"I'm sure you will, I would like to meet him too. Got to thank him for protecting my man," I wink at him, and there is that blush I love so much.

"If he came with me, we most likely wouldn't be here."

My smirk vanishes as I look at him in confusion.

"Why not? I doubt anything would have changed with how we met."

"He would never have let you meet me or even get close enough,' Nai chuckles at something but I don't.

'He would stop us from getting to our mate?' my wolf asks just as confused as I am. 'Is he another shifter, does Nai know about me?'

"Why?"

Nai laughs as he looks at me. A hand grips mine as he leans towards me.

"Do you remember what happened the first time I saw you?" he asks me.

I think back to his first day. I remember he looked like a scared sheep when I walked up to him and Clay at the front door. Then in the diner, he kept his head down and scurried away from me.

"Do you mean on the steps at school or in the diner because on either one I didn't do anything,"

Nai shakes his head.

"No the first time I saw you, there was a large crowd around you shouting 'fight'. You were fighting and Clay had dragged me to watch. Just from that alone, Max would never let you near me. That day you looked like a bigger and meaner version of the bullies I used to know."

I can feel all the colour run from my face. I'd forgotten about that. Whenever I remember when I first noticed him I forget what I was doing when I noticed his scent and saw him.

He literally saw me acting like one of his bullies, that was his first impression of me.

"That wasn't what you think. That guy had been harassing a girl I know quite well. She tutors me when an exam or something comes up. She lives near me and her mum works in the diner.

He was trying to force her to do his work for him, he said he would take her out on a date as payment. She wasn't interested but he thought he was irresistible.

I intervened when he grabbed her and wasn't taking no for an answer. He said something disrespectful to me about her and that's why we were fighting."

I send a silent prayer to the Moon Goddess that he believes me. The last thing I want is for him to be scared of me.

Nai thinks it over and nods.

"Did you protect her because you and her ….?" he trails off, almost afraid to ask.

"No Nai, there has never been or will ever be me and her. There will only ever be me and you."

There's that blush I know and love.

----

Later that night we are cuddled together on one of the long sofas watching Tv. I've no clue what we're watching.

I'm too focused on Nai and how his soft body is pressed against mine. He melts into me just right. My wolf is actually purring, content to have our mate in our arms.

I nudge my nose against his head, he looks at me and smiles.

'You ok?' he asks me when I stay silent.

I nod before leaning forward and capturing his mouth in a searing kiss. I feel him shift slightly, this new angle allows me to attack his mouth so much better. His tongue dances with mine as my hand slips under his shirt.

His skin has been calling to me, I've been so desperate to touch it. He stops my hand and pulls back, I stare at him confused. He smirks at me and stands up. He does two things that surprise me and makes me and my wolf growl in lust.

He removes his shirt and straddles my waist.

I openly stare down his chest, following all the lines. I can see an outline of his abs and pecs. They're not as prominent as mine but, my dick likes the sight. It throbs painfully against my jeans.

He wraps his arms around my neck and pulls me in for a kiss. My hands grip his ass before sliding up his back. His smooth skin feels wonderful.

I feel him moan into my mouth as we kiss. Smirking, I pull back to stare at him. My hands delicately travel over his chest and abs, his eyes close and his head rolls back. I watch him carefully as my hand goes lower.

He quivers in surprise, yelping a little when my hand ghosts over his erection through his sweats. I smirk as I do it again, eliciting the same response.

"Asher!" he moans and it takes all of my self-control to not rip off our clothes and plunge deep into him. His grip on my shoulders tightens as he moves his hips against my hand.

I bring his mouth back to mine as I stroke him, slowly getting faster. Suddenly, his hands grip me fiercely as his back arches. His head is thrown back as a small cry of ecstasy escapes him as he cums.

That sight will stay with me forever, definitely adding to the many images of him I already have. Those images fuel my fantasies every night I'm alone.

Once he recovers enough he stares at me blushing. I love the way he looks when he blushes, it makes my dick twitch even more.

"Nai...." I'm suddenly feeling a little unsure of myself, what if he says no? ".... How about we take this upstairs?" I ask my heart in my throat. "We can get a little more comfortable," I add with a wink.

He looks shocked, he bites his bottom lip which has me groaning. I'm about to backtrack and tell him it's so we can go to sleep but he nods shyly at me.

My eyes go wide, I didn't expect him to say yes. Especially after such a long pause.

"Are you sure? You know what I want right? What I actually meant?" I ask, feeling a little nervous. I need to be sure he knows what I desire because if we go upstairs I will struggle to one, stay in my bed and two, keep my hands to myself.

"I know, I want this too," he avoids my eyes. I need him to look at me in the eyes, I need to know he is ok with this.

"Are you really sure?" I ask again. "Once we start it will be hard for me to stop, not impossible just extremely hard."

I've wanted this since the moment I smelt him, the moment I saw him and the moment I kissed him.

He smiles at me and gives me the briefest of kisses. One hand raises up slowly and he curls it into a fist.

'Yes,' he signs, not speaking.

I smile back, lift him up and carry him upstairs. He doesn't protest or tell me to put him down. Instead, he attacks my neck with kisses and little nips, which has me growling in pleasure.

Once inside the bedroom, I throw him on the bed eyeing him hungrily.

This is the point of no return for my self-control, any further and I won't be able to stop myself. I need him one more time to tell me he wants this too.

"Are you really sure you're ready Nai? You need to understand that once we start. I will find it very difficult if not impossible to stop. I plan on devouring you. I want to taste every last part of you before I slide into you and make you mine."

I want him almost desperately, but if he isn't ready I will try to understand.

Nai holds his hand out to me with a smile, I gently take it as he pulls me down onto the bed next to him. He kisses me gently and signs the word 'ready'. That is all it took.

I crash my mouth back onto his pushing my full body on top of his. My hands go under his shirt, exploring the heated skin. Kneeling up, I quickly removed the rest of his clothes and all of mine. The need to feel his skin against mine is overpowering.

His cock is now semi-hard despite his orgasm earlier. He gasps as I lay beside him and stroke his erection, his hips move in time with my movements.

"Asher!" he moans again. I feel him gently touch my very hard cock. Which is currently poking his side. His gentle hesitant strokes have me gasping and moaning.

My hand works quicker on his now fully erect cock as he strokes a thumb across the tip.

As much as I love the feel of his hand on me I really need something else.

I move off the bed, Nai sits up watching me. I open my bag and pull out a bottle of lube and a condom. Nai raises an eyebrow at them and then me when I turn back to look at him.

"Were you planning this?" he asks with a chuckle. I feel my cheeks go red, which makes him laugh harder. I kneel beside him and he becomes serious.

"I wasn't planning it, but I was hoping," I say softly with a smile. He gulps and his eyes go wide as he bites his lips. I bite my own lips to hold back a groan.

"What's wrong?" I ask him, worried I've moved too fast. "I'm sorry, am I going too fast? If you're not ready I'll….." he stops me with a kiss then pulls back smiling at me. I search his eyes for an answer.

"It's not that I'm not ready, I just …" there's that blush I love colouring his cheeks. I cup one of them and rub my thumb across it.

"I've just never done this before or even thought about doing it. I want to ... I'm just nervous I guess," he looks away. I smile gently at him as I move his face to look at me.

"I am too Pup, but we'll do this together," I tell him. His smile lights up the room.

I grab the bottle and tell him to lay down. The cold lube squeezes on to my fingers and I begin to circle his rim before applying more lube to stroke his cock. I start to slowly insert one finger in making sure not to hurt my pup.

A stab of pain hits my heart as his eyes scrunch up in pain and he grips the pillows, his knuckles turn white as a result. For a moment I contemplate stopping. He must have sensed my hesitation.

"It's ok, keep going," he tells me through gritted teeth.

I slowly move my finger out and then back in. I'm about to add more lube when a strong scent hits me, and something starts oozing out of his ass.

At first, I panic thinking he's bleeding, I hurt my mate. I soon realise what it is, my wolf howls in happiness. It was 'slick.'

Omega males secrete it during sex. It's the equivalent of a woman getting wet.

My wolf is trying to tell me what this could mean but I stamp him down, deciding to just focus on the moment and deal with that later.

I add another finger and scissor them. Nai's moans go straight to my cock, I can't wait any longer. I smirk at his annoyed groan as he glares at me.

His glare may have been more effective if his cheeks weren't red, or his hair wasn't messed up.

His eyes change when he watches me rip open the condom packet and grip hold of my cock. His eyes stare at my hands as I roll it down, pump myself a few times and then line myself up.

I look into his eyes as I slowly push forward past the first barrier, his slick making it easier. He scrunches his eyes as I bottom out, my eyes close. My wolf howls at how right it feels to be inside him.

"Move! Please," he begs in a breathy tone. I don't need telling twice.

I move out slowly almost all the way before moving back in. My pace, slow at first but quickens when I feel him start to move his hips in time with mine. He responds beautifully to me.

I pull out and he whimpers, I sign for him to turn over and he quickly obeys. A smirk flashes across my face at his eagerness.

I help him lift his hips up and he looks back at me with pure desire in his eyes. I stroke his cock and lick his rim before reinserting my cock.

The slapping of his skin against mine is music to my ears but it pales in comparison to his moans. No more than ever I really wish he could hear how he is making me feel, how much he is turning me on.

I grip both his arms and pull up, so his back is flush against my chest as I pound into him.

I put one hand on his chest and the other on his cock. My hand pumps him in time with my thrusts as I moan into his neck. I hope his hearing aids can pick up on my moans but if not then he can feel them against his back.

The telltale sign of my orgasm is looming so I pick up my speed on his cock wanting him to cum with me. A few more thrusts and I cum as my dick swells inside him.

'I've knotted him,' I think in amazement. My wolf growls out the word 'mine' repeatedly.

We both collapse forward, it takes me a few moments for my knot to relax before I can move off of him. He rolls over and looks at me in confusion.

"What happened at the end?" he asks. "It felt like you became so much bigger," a blush tints his cheeks.

Smirking, I wiggle my eyebrows. He playfully smacks my chest and I laugh at him.

I move off the bed and walk into the bathroom, starting the bath. Once it's done I walk back into the bedroom and pick him up. He weighs next to nothing as I carry him to the tub and gently place him in it.

I so desperately want to join him but the tub isn't big enough. However, there is a walk-in shower we can share, with more showerheads that are actually needed.

"I'm going to change the sheets and then I'll come back," I tell him before giving him a quick kiss. I make sure to make quick work of the bedsheets, wanting to get back to my mate as soon as possible.

'Our fated mate!' my wolf growls correcting me.
