Alpha's Surprise Bride: BBW Werebear Fated Mate Romance Read online

  “After careful consideration, I would have to say…” I stretched out my answer to see his reaction.

  He frowned slightly and I smiled at him.

  “Yes, I would love to work for you,” I said finally.

  He sighed with relief. He really did want me to work for him, and seeing him like that made me even happier about my decision.

  “Thank you,” Nathan said with a big smile on his face. “And now I’m going to break my first rule of business.”

  He took the glass of wine out of my hand and placed it on a nearby table. He turned to face me and lifted his hand to my cheek before running a thumb across my bottom lip while licking his.

  “I’ve wanted to bite that lip since I first saw you,” he said quietly.

  “So what’s stopping you,” I said, blushing at my own brazenness.

  He moved closer and slipped his hand behind my neck. Nathan pulled me gently towards him and I had to lean in. We were almost nose-to-nose, staring in each other’s eyes.

  I saw that golden sheen in his gaze again. His pupils dilated and he kissed me, gently at first, and the more I responded to his kiss, the deeper and more passionate it got. He tugged on my lower lip with his teeth and I moaned softly into his mouth.

  There was some distance between us so I shuffled a bit closer to him. One of his hands was on my neck, his thumb gently stroking behind my ear. The feeling was exquisite. He snaked his other arm around my back and pulled me onto his lap with one swift move.

  I knew I wasn’t on the slim side, but he had barely used any strength to lift me, not even breaking our kiss. It was dim in the room with only one small light in the corner. In any other case, I would have been a bit self-conscious about my body, but this hot as hell man wanted me as much as I wanted him and that was all the confirmation I needed.

  I pulled away and started kissing his neck. He smelled divine, even after a long day’s work. My head was spinning, either from the wine or the adrenaline pumping through me.

  I shifted in his lap so I was sitting astride him. He clearly liked what I was doing, judging by the smug look on his face. Seeing him that satisfied made me even more courageous.

  “You’re gorgeous,” he murmured, and that did nothing to fade my blush.

  I loosened his tie while still kissing and biting his neck gently. He groaned quietly, and I could feel his muscles flexing through his shirt. I started undoing the buttons to see his perfect body, but I only saw the outlines of his muscles in the dim light.

  His hands started slowly moving up and down my sides and my back. I hadn’t realized I was half-grinding on his lap until I felt his hard length against me – that definitely needed some further investigation.

  I managed to undo his shirt despite my fingers shaking slightly from excitement, and his torso looked flawless. He still hadn’t tried to take off any of my clothes, as if he were waiting for my permission.

  “You can unzip my dress,” I whispered in his ear and trailed kisses along his jaw until I reached his mouth.

  I kissed him deeply and passionately, and the kiss wasn’t left unanswered. His hands moved to the back of my dress and I felt it loosen as he slowly tugged the zipper down. He touched my bare skin and I could feel him smile against my mouth.

  I broke the kiss and put my lips on the tip of his jaw. I gently licked it with the tip of my tongue and moved up his tense jaw to his ear. I had wanted to do that since I first saw him. He groaned again and his hands were slipping the dress down over my arms now. I took his face in my palms and kissed him one more time on the lips and then started moving lower.

  I shuffled off his notable erection and kissed his throat, my hands finding their way to his steel-hard abs. I kissed and licked his stomach, unbuttoning his pants with my hands.

  Suddenly, he stood and picked me up as if I weighed no more than a feather. I got a glimpse of his perfect dick, bulging through his pants. He was huge. He pushed me against the nearest wall and started kissing me savagely.

  His hands were cupping my breasts and I was holding on to his shoulders. He was so much taller than me. Nathan grabbed my ass and lifted me so we were face-to-face. I wrapped my legs around him so our bodies barely had any space between them.

  I ran my fingers through his hair and tugged gently. In response, I got another one of his sexy, deep, throaty groans. My body and my actions were driving him wild. I could sense it and was patiently waiting for him to make the next move.

  As if on cue, he snaked one arm behind me and grabbed my hair with the other one, tugging at it gently and tilting my head back. He kissed my throat and moved a bit lower, but since we were standing, me in his arms, he couldn’t reach his mark.

  Letting go of my hair, he kissed me with passion, carrying me across the room. I felt his biceps tense as he lowered me on his bed. Somehow, I hadn’t even noticed that he had managed to unhook my bra. He removed it as soon as I was on my back and gave me a swift kiss and a big smile before moving down.

  He cupped my breasts with both hands, gently rolling and pinching my nipples between his forefinger and thumb. I was wriggling beneath him, but he pinned me down with his hips. I could feel his cock, his magnificent size pressing against my thigh.

  I unzipped his pants and pushed them a little bit lower, but couldn’t reach very well.

  “Not yet,” he whispered, looking at me sternly.

  He started sucking and nibbling on my nipples, one at a time. I could barely take it.

  “Let’s see if we can make you come like this,” he said slyly.

  He kept on sucking and kissing my nipples, but moved his body off of mine. One of his hands dipped beneath my lower back, making me arch against him. With the other hand he still cupped my breast, squeezing it and tugging the exposed nipple, while sucking the other into his mouth. Then, he started moving his hand down my stomach, grazing the sensitive skin with his fingertips.

  I could feel my body tense in anticipation. I was moaning and bucking against him even more than before. His hand moved to my navel, circling it a couple of times. He kissed me, his tongue deeply entwined with mine, and I felt his fingertips brush against my clit through my panties. His touch was too light, and I pushed myself against him, needing more. The second I did that, he stopped.

  “You need to stay still,” he whispered and started kissing my neck.

  I tried really hard not to move too much and felt his hand back on my stomach. The torturous circle around my navel began again. He bit my earlobe and kissed my neck and throat, until his tongue was back in my mouth and his hand was on my panties.

  Only this time, he slipped one finger under the fabric and circled my clit. I felt my body inch closer to my release and it was so hard to concentrate on not moving, lest he start teasing me again. I was far too ready to come.

  “Baby, come for me,” he said as he looked into my eyes.

  That was my undoing. My orgasm came ripping through my body.

  “Nathan!” I yelled.

  I had never experienced anything like that. I felt like I had been flung into space and I wasn’t ready to come down yet. My body convulsed repeatedly before I could open my eyes and look at the gorgeous man beside me. He kissed me gently on my lips and rolled over to his bedside table. He opened a drawer and pulled out a foil packet. He gave the condom to me and moved to the edge of the bed to sit up. I got on my knees and inched behind him, caressing his back, his broad shoulders, and his beautiful hair. I cupped his chin and made him look at me. His eyes bore into mine, only spurring me on.

  I kissed him passionately, and my hands started moving down his well-toned body. He lifted his hips off the bed just enough for me to lower his pants and boxer briefs down his legs.

  His erection sprung free and I gasped. He was huge. I wrapped one hand around his dick and started moving up and down. I used my other hand and my teeth to open the condom. He threw his head back and groaned, lost under my touch.

  I let go of him, got off the bed and kneeled in fr
ont of him. I kissed the tip of his cock and circled my tongue around it a couple of times before slipping on the condom. I stood up and, very slowly, removed my panties. Nathan clearly enjoyed the view as a golden glow played in his eyes.

  I stepped closer to him, but he wouldn’t let me sit on his lap just yet. He grabbed my ass and pulled me closer to his mouth. He kissed the apex of my thighs, dipped his tongue in my navel and slowly started moving down. His hands were caressing my ass and my thighs. He massaged around my labia with his thumbs. Then, he moved his index finger up and down my sex.

  “You’re so wet for me,” he said, a deep growl rumbling in his chest.

  I couldn’t do anything but moan. He opened me with his fingers and kissed my clit. It was almost my undoing. I moaned again, louder this time. He kissed his way back up to my navel and I felt his hands on my back, pulling me towards him.

  I slowly climbed on his lap, sitting astride as I guided his tip into me. He was so big, but I was more than ready for him. Slowly, I sunk onto him, until he was deep in me. The feeling was out of this world.

  I felt him flex a bit underneath me and I started grinding against him. He leaned back on his elbows to admire the view of my tits bouncing up and down as I rode him.

  Him looking at me like that made me feel like the sexiest woman on earth. He threw his head back and I saw his jaw tense. I knew he was close. I opened my legs wider so he could get even deeper. He came back up, grabbed me in a bear hug and buried his face between my breasts.

  I felt him tense and heard him growl as he came. His voice pushed me over the edge once more. I came with him, long and hard. We held each other tight for a couple of minutes as we descended from the heavens back to earth.

  “You’re so beautiful,” Nathan whispered, and I could only sob a breath in response.

  As our breathing got steadier, we let go of each other and I climbed off of him. Somehow I felt so drained that it was hard for me to even keep my eyes open. I lay down and saw Nathan throw the used condom into a trashcan. He crawled under the covers behind me and pulled me into a hug. We were both too tired to speak, and no words could have explained how we felt that night anyway.

  With those emotions, we drifted off.

  Six

  Nathan

  What did I do to deserve this woman?

  That was the first thought I had the next morning when I was awoken by gentle strokes over my chest. Simona was popped up on one elbow, using her other hand to gently touch my skin. She traced the scars over my heart with her fingertips, not even noticing that I was awake. I moved my head to look at her, and she flinched.

  “Hey you,” she said quietly, startled that she had woken me up.

  “Hey you, too,” I replied with a big smile.

  Never before had I had such a magical night. Simona was special. I felt something for her, feelings I wasn’t prepared for, but I needed to clear my head and find out what that ‘something’ was.

  “You have scars. I didn’t notice them last night,” she remarked, still stroking my chest with her fingertips.

  I had gotten used to them and they were barely visible anymore. Still, I felt like she was waiting for an explanation of how I got them. I put my hand over hers.

  “Many years ago, I went hunting with my brothers. We decided to pull an overnighter and stay in the woods. We were sitting around the campfire, just talking and goofing around, when a big angry grizzly bear approached us,” I stopped to check if she was following my story.

  Her eyes were so big, and I let their intense blue color wash over me. She listened so attentively and must have already guessed the ending because her eyes were tearing up.

  “Don’t,” I said to her and kissed her.

  “I’m sorry, please continue,” she pleaded me to go on.

  “I think her cubs were somewhere nearby and she felt threatened by our scents and voices. She growled, but we were too afraid to move. She suddenly lunged straight at me, and I only saw her giant paw and claws flash in front of me before I was on my back. Then I heard a gunshot, one of my brothers tried to scare her off and it worked. But I couldn’t move; the pain was just unbearable.”

  I stopped talking. I couldn’t tell her the whole truth, at least not yet.

  Tears were rolling down her cheeks. She was living through my story so vividly that she couldn’t help but cry, as if she had felt the pain herself.

  “Please don’t cry,” I tried consoling her. “It was a long time ago and the scars remind me of what I’ve been through and who I am.”

  She pressed her hand on the marks on my chest, as if trying to take away my pain. I put my hand over hers and took it off my chest to kiss it.

  “So who are you?” she asked, wiping her tears away.

  It was way too soon to tell her who I really was. We had only known each other for a couple of days and the previous night had been way too special to ruin it with the truth. It would just scare her off, and I was not nearly ready to let her go.

  “Well, as of today, I’m your new boss,” I tried to change the subject, smiling at my own declaration.

  “Oh, right,” she said after a pause, sounding a bit hesitant.

  “And like I said yesterday – I broke my first rule in business.”

  “What rule?” she asked, looking puzzled.

  “I never mix personal relations with business,” I replied, sitting up.

  “Is that what it is – a relationship?” she asked with a surprised expression.

  It was hard to read her emotions. Was she glad or disappointed?

  “I hope it will be one day.”

  I let my answer hang between us.

  The silence stretched for a couple of minutes and I was beginning to get restless. I didn’t want to let this woman go just yet, but her silence had me worried. Simona, her body and beautiful mind, had grown on me in such a short period of time. I was afraid of my own feelings for her and needed to figure them out before I took things any further.

  “I hope so, too,” she said finally, making my bear give out a satisfied rumble deep inside my chest.

  I grabbed my shirt and threw it to her before picking up my boxers and pulling them on. She put my shirt on and was looking for her panties.

  “I’ll hang on to these,” I said, picking them off the floor and clutching them in my fist.

  I lifted my hand up to my face and inhaled her scent. Her reaction was priceless – her perfect full lips popped open and a wave of a blush covered her beautiful cheeks. I laughed out loud and she started laughing too. I stepped closer to her and took her hand.

  “Come, we need breakfast,” I said as I tugged her off the bed.

  Luckily it was my housekeeper’s day off, so we had full privacy in my house. I found my phone on the kitchen counter and checked it quickly. I had three missed calls, all from Bradley. What was so urgent that it couldn’t wait for a couple more hours?

  Simona must have noticed my disturbed face looking at the phone, so she offered to cook breakfast herself.

  “Go ahead, take care of business,” she said with her beautiful smile. “But first tell me, Mister Rockwood, what would you like for breakfast?” she asked, leaning against one of the counters and giving me a good look at her generous form.

  She was such a tease and I felt my cock stir, but Bradley’s importunity had me worried.

  “Bacon and eggs would be nice, Miss Parker,” I said with equal courtesy.

  In two steps I was next to her, kissing those perfectly pink lips. When I pulled away, she was breathless. I turned and left for the living room, finding it hard to tear myself away from her.

  “What,” I said curtly as soon as Bradley answered his phone.

  “Oh, hey man. I’m sorry to disturb you, but our mining crew in Kelsey Lake got some sort of severe flu and I needed to replace them. That’s why I was calling,” Bradley said apologetically.

  “Well, did you hire someone?”

  “Yeah, I kind of did, but the paperwork someh
ow got mixed up and instead of a temporary contract, we signed a termless contract.”

  “Fuck, Bradley, I told you not to make any rash decisions. Who are they? I’ll talk to them.”

  “Yeah, okay. Jack and Eric Figo, they call themselves the Figo brothers. And they had a couple of friends as well.”

  Bradley sounded like a small child. He knew he had fucked up but had no idea how to fix it.

  “Fuck. I know them – they are the worst choice you could have made!”

  I could barely control my anger, talking through gritted teeth.

  I hung up before he could get another word in. My inner bear was ready to show himself. I was so pissed at Bradley. That wasn’t the first time for him to make a major wrong decision without consulting me. As if a couple of hours without a crew would have changed much. I needed to get to the office as soon as possible.

  I knew the Figo brothers and their friends – they were a pack of werewolves. Their family had been trying to get on our lands for decades now, and every time they got the slightest chance to cause trouble, they took it. It was harder for them these days, with the legal system and all, but they had found my weak spot, and it was Bradley.

  “We need to eat fast and go to the office,” I said sternly when I returned to the kitchen.

  Simona was startled by the sudden shift in my mood but just nodded and didn’t ask anything. We were ready to go twenty minutes later.

  Seven

  Simona

  Our ride to the office was mostly quiet. Apparently, it was my first day at my new job and I was still wearing the dress from the day before. Not exactly first impression material, but Nathan wasn’t in the mood to be argued with.

  I was nervous about meeting new people and seeing my workplace for the first time. Nathan was tense. Something about that phone call had made him angry and that was a whole new side of him, although he was still polite and charming with me.
