My Heartless Alpha

Chapter 23

Asher and I left our woodland mansion just after lunch, our hands and bodies curling around each other.
We decided to walk to where Alpha Tolkiens pack would be residing, mainly so we could spend as much precious and private time with each other as possible.
The forest looked gorgeous today; the sun shining brightly through the blossoming foliage.
But I wasn't properly looking at the scenery.
I was taking in as much of Asher as possible, the way his grey eyes glinted and sparkled in the light, and his carefree nature when it was just the two of us, and if only for moments, we were the only things on the planet. No witch, no pack, nothing. Just us.

"Done checking me out?" He looked down at me with a smirk as he spoke our infamous line.

"Not quite" I replied, leaning up on my tiptoes to brush his lips, a faint smile still evident on my face.

He growled at me playfully, grabbing my waist and lifting me off the forest floor, twirling me around in the air, my smiles morphing into laughter.
I circled my arms around his neck as he finally put my giggling form down.

"You know, as compensation for that, you can give me a piggy back" I declared, poking a finger in his ribs.

With an hmph I clambered onto his back and dropped my head onto his shoulder.
"Come on bronzy, we don't have all day" I whispered into his ear, smiling.

Don't push it his playful voice scratched my mind.

"Or what? You can't resist me..." I lightly bit his earlobe and marvelled when I saw him shiver and his head slightly turn towards mine.

"Your playing a dangerous game" he turned his head and whispered onto my lips.

"Of course. Didn't you know? I'm mated to an Alpha" I smiled at him, flicking his nose.

"I wonder how he'll react when he sees you this close to another man" Ash muttered, his hands which were resting on my thighs moving up my backside, extracting a moan from me.

"I think he'll murder him on sight" Ash continues.

"Murder?" I inquire, feigning innocence,
"Murder is a bit extreme wouldn't you agree?" I began kissing down his jaw.

"Murder is a light punishment in this case"
Before I could comprehend, Asher had twirled me around and pushed me up against a tree. The bark digging into my lower back was the last thing on my mind as Asher thrust his lips on mine, his tongue exploring my mouth as my mind clouded and my senses were bombarded with pleasure.
Subconsciously, I arched my back, my chest mingling with his as my fingers lifted to tug on his ebony strands.
I moaned and hummed into his mouth as his hands lifted my body up so I straddled his waist.
My legs curled around his thighs as I deepened the kiss, pushing our bodies even closer together.
My hands begged me to reach down towards the buttons of his jeans, but I forced myself to stop as I remembered that we needed to be preparing for the meeting with the eclipse pack.
Eventually, the kiss became softer and lighter.
We both reluctantly pulled away from each other, understanding that we had pack duties to attend to.
We stared into each other's eyes, softness radiating from his. I offered him a tender smile as I brought my lips to his one last time to revel in his addictive taste before slowly pulling away.
I slid down his front to show him what he was missing before I began wandering forward, my hand pulling me with me.

"Has your wolf got a name?" I asked randomly as we walked along the forest floor, scattering the autumn leaves.

"No. At least, with my pack we haven't given names to our wolves. This has been a thing for as long as our pack has been alive, so generations ago. It's because in our pack our wolves are a part of us, integrated into who we are. So if my wolf was to have a name it would be Asher aswell, because we are one of the same."
