Alpha's Surprise Bride: BBW Werebear Fated Mate Romance Page 8


  I started praying in my mind, sending him blessings and health and love. I had to force myself not to cry because it would have only made everything worse. I didn’t need him to worry about my emotions; I needed him to heal.

  “We’re here,” I said quietly when we reached the hotel.

  I leaped out of the car and ran to his side. He leaned on me again as he got out of the car. He still walked on his own legs, even though he was severely injured. The chauffeur ran towards us.

  “What happened?”

  “Please, we just need some privacy,” I told him while walking towards the front door of the hotel. “We’ll pay for any damage to your car.”

  Nathan was close to passing out and I needed to get him to bed as quickly as I could. Luckily, there was still enough strength in him to walk the distance to our room.

  Upstairs in our suite, I noticed that the door had been fixed. We got inside and I helped Nathan to bed. He was lying on his back with his eyes half open, staring at the ceiling. I went to the bathroom to find the first aid kit and some towels to clean his wounds. When I got back to him, he was passed out.

  I gently peeled off his bloody shirt and threw it on the floor. He winced through his sleep and grunted. His perfect torso was full of scratches, bruises and deeper wounds. I started cleaning him softly. Most of the blood flow had stopped; only the deeper wounds were still dripping. I used up all the bandages I found in the first aid kit and left the minor scratches open.

  I was so tired. I washed my face, changed my clothes and climbed in bed next to him. He was sleeping peacefully, his wounds properly covered. I pulled a blanket over him, even though his body was radiating heat. He needed all his warmth and energy in order to heal faster.

  I admired my beautiful hurt man. He really was the complete package, inside and out. He could have finished Jack off then and there, but had decided to show him mercy. It was Jack’s decision to be the martyr.

  Nathan was reasonable, honest and just. And I didn’t care that he could turn into a bear – he was still my man. With those thoughts, I drifted off into heavy sleep right next to him.

  In the morning, I woke up feeling hot, my clothes damp from sweat. It took me a moment to realize I was in a tight hug, my legs entwined with Nathan’s. I knew he was feeling better by the way he caressed my ass and my thigh. I turned to face him and saw the sweetest smile on his face, even though he still looked beat.

  “Good morning,” he whispered and gave me a swift kiss on my lips.

  “Good morning yourself,” I replied with a smile.

  I was relieved when I saw him smiling and knew he would get better. He was still hurting and needed time to let his body heal itself.

  But it really was supernatural how fast he was getting better. I doubt that any ordinary human would have been able to heal as quickly.

  We got up and ordered breakfast.

  “I need to know about yesterday,” I stated after finishing my meal.

  I had spent the entire evening and morning preparing myself for that conversation. There was no room for secrets in our blossoming relationship.

  “Are you sure you want the truth?” he asked.

  “Yes, I’m ready for whatever is coming.”

  “Where do I begin?” he asked, rubbing his chin with his index finger.

  “From the very beginning.”

  I really wanted to know everything about him. We already had a very strong sexual bond. We needed to reach the spiritual bond as well, and we were already halfway there by admitting love for one another. I just needed to understand him for us to be complete.

  “Centuries ago, my ancestors found this land in Colorado that wasn’t claimed by anyone. It was a beautiful mountainous area and the perfect place to raise a family. So they decided to settle in. As time went by and generations passed, my clan started to get stronger and wealthier.

  We legally bought the lands for ourselves. The werewolves living in the area had a hard time accepting that, and they have been rivaling and challenging us ever since. Every one of my forefathers has had to fight a werewolf in order to keep our lands.”

  He paused to check if I understood everything so far.

  “But what are you?” I asked.

  “I’m a werebear,” he said simply, “and werebears are usually very peaceful, but we get really aggravated when someone tries to come after our property or our loved ones.”

  Nathan was the first werebear I had ever known and he truly was very peaceful. He was determined and strong, but he always kept his cool while communicating with others.

  “Why are werewolves so vicious?” I couldn’t help but wonder.

  “They aren’t that bad if you have a valid treaty. It was all about Jack’s greed, he was the Alpha of his pack. They actually have a decent amount of land, but it was never enough for Jack. He was sly and smart.

  He found out that one of my crews at the Kelsey Lake mining site was out. Now that I think about it, maybe he was the reason they weren’t able to come to work. Anyway, he deceived Bradley into hiring them so they could get closer to me. That was the reason I was out on the mining site the other day.”

  “I remember your mood shifted after that day. What did they want?”

  “Our land, which very conveniently had a couple of profitable mining sites as well,” he replied. “Easy affluence,” he added with a shrug.

  “I don’t know much about these things, but I mean, the land is legally yours,” I wondered, “and it’s not that easy to just take someone’s property.”

  “Go figure,” he shrugged again. “Anyway, I blew them off and warned them about coming back. He threatened to hurt me and my loved ones. I said that if he ever came back, it would be a fight to the death. He knew his clan wasn’t as strong as mine, so he decided to wait it out….”

  “Until you were on your own,” I finished his sentence.

  “Exactly. And all I wanted was for you to be safe. That’s why we came here in the first place. He made a huge mistake by involving you in our feud.”

  “When the three of them were on top of you, I thought I would lose you,” I said with tears welling in my eyes. “How did you manage to regain your strength?”

  I had wanted to ask that question since the fight, but Nathan hadn’t been well enough to talk then.

  “You said you loved me. And right then I realized that I love you, too. You need to know that I’m an Alpha and most of the people you saw at The Grizzly Rose belong to my clan.”

  “You’re an Alpha of werebears? I mean, you are much younger than one would expect a leader to be.”

  I couldn’t hide my surprise.

  “I know. My father was an Alpha. But he died in a fight when I was a teenager. I’m the oldest of my brothers, and I was destined to be the Alpha. But I was too young to understand what it really meant. Remember I told you about the time I went hunting with my brothers?”

  He swiped his hand across his chest, his old scars barely visible under the new wounds.

  “Yes.”

  “The grizzly bear that attacked me was actually nature’s way of sending me a painful reminder of who I really was. That was a life-changing experience for me. I decided to pull myself together. I cleaned up my act, started my own company and became a true leader for my clan.”

  “You didn’t answer my question – what made you so powerful during the fight?”

  His strength on the battlefield had been unnatural.

  “That’s the thing about werebears. Once an Alpha finds his fated mate, he gains his full strength. I am complete, thanks to your love.”

  A tear rolled down my cheek, I couldn’t help it. He was so sincere and his declaration of love made me feel whole. I loved this beautiful man, body and soul. And I knew he felt the same way about me.

  He stretched out his hand, wincing in pain as he did, and brushed his thumb across my cheek to wipe the tear away. I moved closer and kissed him. I gently put my hand on his wounded chest, trying to make it heal
faster. It seemed as if our kiss lasted forever, consuming us both, and our souls were finally bonding into one whole.

  Thirteen

  Simona

  Days passed before Nathan felt strong enough to fly back home. We used his private jet again – that saved us from having to explain his injuries at the airport. All he needed to heal was time and the fresh mountain air of Denver.

  “How are you feeling?” I asked as soon as we took off.

  “Babe, I told you not to worry,” he answered, smiling. “Besides, with you by my side, I hardly feel any pain.”

  “I miss you,” I said with a secretive smile on my face.

  “But I’m –” he stopped talking, “Oh.”

  “Yeah,” I winked at him.

  “I’m all yours,” he said with a wide smile while motioning to his body with his hands.

  I heard a ping and the fasten seatbelt sign switched off. It was going to be a long flight back home, but we had all the time in the world for just the two of us. I stood and walked the short distance to him. I unbuckled his seatbelt and sat astride him. He winced, but when I tried to get off of him, he held me down. I slowly and gently caressed his cheeks, his hair and his injured neck.

  “You certainly know how to mix pleasure and pain,” he said in a low voice.

  “Just tell me when to stop,” I replied with a smile.

  He enjoyed everything I did to him; I could see it in his eyes.

  “No, never,” he said with his eyes closed. “You can do whatever you want to me, I will never make you stop.”

  Nathan opened his eyes, and I saw that mesmerizing golden glow in them again. I knew then and there that he was ready for action. I leaned in and kissed him, my hands gently resting on his chest. He pulled me closer to him, and even though it was painful for him, he didn’t let me go. His devotion to me and my needs was so overwhelming.

  “I love you,” I said after pulling away from our kiss and looked him in the eyes. “And I don’t know what I would do with my life if I lost you.”

  I was almost sobbing.

  Not the sexiest moment, I know, but it was something I needed to tell him. I needed him to know that he was the one for me.

  “I know, babe,” he said quietly while stroking my hair, “but I’m here, with you. I will never leave you.”

  “You are the love of my life and I thank god that he let you stay with me.”

  A single tear rolled down my cheek as I stated my true feelings.

  “You are my world, Simona,” he whispered. “With you, I feel like I’m more alive than ever.”

  I couldn’t wait any longer and kissed him hard, my tongue finding his. Every inch of my body was aching for his. I wanted him to touch me, kiss me, and own me – all of me.

  Nathan put my hands around his neck and stood up with me in his lap. He started walking towards the back of the plane, not once breaking our kiss. He opened the door to the master bedroom and closed it behind us. The billionaire lifestyle sure had its benefits.

  He sat on the edge of the bed with me still in his lap as he leaned back and lied down. I followed him, kissing his neck, gently tugging his earlobe with my teeth. I heard his appreciative, quiet groans.

  I sat up and pushed his T-shirt up, and with a little help from him, pulled it over his head. His wounds were healing rather fast, but then again, he’d told me that werebears were quick healers.

  “You want to play?” I asked seductively as I pulled out a pair of handcuffs from the back pocket of my jeans.

  I had gotten them when I was out looking for a pharmacy and stumbled across a sex shop. I was hoping he would be healing fast so we could play on the plane. My wish had been granted. I really wanted to join the mile-high club with him.

  “Oh, Simona,” I heard his low voice and felt his erection grow.

  I climbed off of him and took off my T-shirt but left the bra on. I also removed my jeans so I was in front of him wearing only my lingerie. I could see in his expression that he was enjoying the show. I climbed back astride him and felt his dick grow even bigger than it had been before. I cuffed my left hand to his right, our fingers interlocking.

  “No escaping now,” I whispered as I moved my kisses down his neck to his scratched and wounded pecks, careful not to hurt him.

  “Not in a million years,” he replied with a smile.

  I kissed his old scars – his reminder of being the Alpha – and every inch of his skin that wasn’t hurt. I was moving lower, kissing his rock hard abs and gently moving down his side with my free hand.

  I managed to unbutton his jeans and was unzipping them when I felt a tug on my cuffed hand. He was pulling me up again, like the last time I had tried to make him happy in his bed.

  I was face to face with him again when he made a swift move. The next thing I knew, he was on top of me. He was so dexterous, even with his injuries slowing him down. He held our cuffed hands above our heads and caressed my breasts with his free hand.

  “Ladies first,” he murmured, licking his lips.

  He started kissing my chest while his other hand slid under me to unhook my bra. He removed the obstacle to his goal and, one at a time, kissed my breasts savagely, playing with the nipples. I felt my underwear getting wetter by the second. Everything he said and did was so erotic.

  “Besides,” he added a few moments later, “I owe you one, and I’m a man of my word.”

  “Nathan, no,” I started protesting because it wasn’t a competition, but his cuffed hand moved to my lips and his index finger crossed my mouth.

  He didn’t want to hear any of my protests, so I decided to just give in.

  His trail of kisses moved down from my breasts to my belly, making my body so sensitive to his touch. He dipped his tongue in my navel, making me wriggle. Grabbing my thigh with his free hand, he pushed my legs apart before sticking his nose between my thighs and inhaling.

  “Divine,” he said, tugging my underwear down.

  I was clutching the sheets with both hands. The anticipation was too much for my body. I was naked in front of such a hot man, and he made me feel like a goddess.

  He trailed his index finger across my sex and pushed it inside me, making me gasp.

  “You’re so tight and ready for me,” he said with pride.

  I couldn’t bear it any longer. I wanted him inside me right away. But he wanted to play and prolong my pleasure. He kissed the apex of my thighs, moving closer to my sex with every kiss. Then, he finally licked my clit, making me convulse involuntarily. He pushed two fingers inside me while torturing me with his tongue. He licked and kissed and sucked gently, his fingers still moving inside me, until I couldn’t take it any longer.

  “Nathan,” I yelled as an orgasm so intense I almost blacked out took over me.

  I felt him move back up to me and lie down next to me, our fingers still interlocked. I was breathing heavily as I came down from my mind-blowing orgasm. I looked at him, and seeing his happy face made me smile.

  “You rock my world, Mister Rockwood,” I said, panting.

  He smiled and lay down on his back. I could see that his insides were hurting by the way he winced with every move he made. But I also saw that big bulge in his jeans that needed sorting out. I took off the handcuffs and set him free.

  I helped him out of his jeans and kissed his impressive length. I stood up slowly, my curves grinding on his perfect, lean, naked body. I could tell he was excited by the way his cock twitched. I left him standing there and climbed in bed, taking the sexiest Aphrodite pose. He was standing in front of me in all his glory. I smiled and he climbed in behind me and started caressing my breasts while kissing my neck.

  Suddenly, he grabbed my hips with both hands and pulled me up on my knees. He fondled my ass, and seconds later, he pushed his hard dick inside me. The full feeling made my head spin, it was so good. I was so ready for him, my body yearning for his touch.

  He paused for a few seconds so I could adjust to the feeling and then started moving
his hips. He pushed hard and I didn’t believe I could have another orgasm, but when he started kissing my back while gently tugging nipples, I felt the delicious feeling build again. He started moving his hips in a circular motion, while still pushing in and out.

  The mix of all his moves made my body tingle and I was getting closer and closer to my release. I felt Nathan’s fingers digging into my hips and I knew he was ready but wouldn’t let go without my happy ending. He reached my clit and started circling it with his index finger. The combination of everything he was doing to my body tipped me over the edge, making me climax. I clenched my insides involuntarily as I came even harder than before. That was his undoing as well.

  “Yes, babe,” he hissed trough his teeth as he came, growling.

  He collapsed on top of me, his cock still in me. We were both spent, our hearts racing. He rolled over and held me close to his body. That was the best place in the world for me. I could stay like that forever. He pulled the sheets over our naked bodies and we just lay there, spooning.

  Our love filled the plane and we knew we couldn’t spend another day without each other.

  It was true love. It was fate.

  Epilogue

  Simona

  It was the first day of summer and my relationship with Nathan was stronger than ever. A lot had happened since our trip to Belgium. I hadn’t really had any time to reflect on my recent life because I had new duties and responsibilities at work and in life in general.

  After we returned, Nathan’s partner, Bradley, declared that he wanted to start his own company, now called RHM. He had been through a lot, being beaten up by werewolves and all, and had decided to turn a new leaf. Nathan had a lot to do with his new beginning – he decided to give Bradley an enormous bonus for his merits at RW Empire. As a thank you, Bradley named the company Rockwood-Huff Mining.

  Once Bradley left the company, my man needed a new partner. He had some trust issues since the fight, so he decided to offer the position to me. I hesitated a bit because I didn’t know very much about managing a huge company like that, but I wanted to be by his side and support him in every way I could.
