Hired to Protect Read online

  Sliding off the bed, Penny stood and began to undress. Grabbing the hem of her dress, it was over her head in seconds, thrown casually to the floor without a thought. The bra followed, the freedom from the restrictive garment causing her to release a soft sigh of relief. She left the panties for now, more concerned with getting the Alpha’s attention.

  Limping her way across the room, a part of her mind was still irritated by the boot, but she pushed it aside. Reaching up, she ran her hands across the Alpha’s shoulders, breathing his sandalwood scent deep into her lungs as she pulled his jacket down his arms. Penny felt him tense as her hands slid under his arms to stroke his chest through the thin dress-shirt he wore before her hands ran down his muscled abdomen as she made her way to his pants.

  Gripping her hands in one of his, he stopped her, saying, “Penelope,” in a warning tone.

  Letting out a soft purr, she rubbed herself against his back as she answered, “Alpha.”

  Ethan turned within her arms, keeping her hands held in one of his so that they were now behind his back. Looking up into his eyes she could see the hunger waring with uncertainty.

  “Take me, Alpha,” she whispered, molding her body against his chest.

  Nostrils flaring, he let out a low growl as his pupils dilated even more.

  “You don’t know what you’re saying. Your mind is clouded by instinct driving you to breed.”

  Forcing herself to focus on what he was saying, Penny frowned.

  “You may be right, but I wanted you before. Now I need you. Please Alpha… Ethan…”

  She could see the moment he gave in when she said his name. The last of the hazel in his eyes disappeared and his body seemed to swell as he took in a deep breath before letting it out in a rumble that made her knees weak.

  Dropping to the floor, her hands flew to his belt, pulling it loose and moving on to the button and zipper in seconds. When she finally freed his cock, she gasped and pulled back, torn between hunger and trepidation.

  Long and thick, it bobbed before her, beads of precum collecting at the tip before sliding down the head as she watched. The musky scent surrounded her as she licked her lips before leaning forward.

  Swiping her tongue through the fluid glossing his tip, they both let out a moan. Ethan buried his fingers in her hair as she opened her mouth wide, taking his entire head between her lips and swirling her tongue around it. Relaxing her throat, she took him deeper, choking as it hit the back of her throat and there was still more than half of his cock left uncovered.

  Wrapping a hand around the base, she stroked what she couldn’t fit in her mouth, using the other hand to pull his pants down to his ankles before cupping his balls and gently rolling them in her palm. Ethan’s hands tightened in her hair, causing her scalp to sting and her core to clench in need.

  Releasing his cock from her mouth, she looked up at the powerful Alpha standing over her.

  “I need you. Please,” she begged.

  Hands moving under her arms, Ethan lifted her to her feet before kicking off his shoes and stepping out of his pants. Penny began to back towards the bed, watching the Alpha as he undressed.

  Ripping the shirt open without taking the time to undo the buttons, he dropped it to the floor behind him. Stalking towards her, he wrapped his arms around her body just as the back of her knees hit the edge of the bed.

  “I’ve wanted to do this since I first saw you,” he whispered in a husky voice before crushing his lips to hers.

  Moaning, she opened to him, letting his tongue invade her mouth as she clung to his strong body. Stroking her fingers down the muscles of his back, she felt them jump and writhe beneath her palms as he tipped her head back and deepened the kiss.

  When his lips finally released hers, Penny was breathless and drunk on the Alpha’s rich flavor. Whimpering, her eyes opened to find him staring down at her as his hands moved from her back down to her bottom.

  Hooking his hands under her thighs, he lifted Penny, crawling forward onto the bed to deposit her in the center of her pillows. Pressing a kiss to her lips as her hands clutched his shoulders, Ethan settled his hips against hers, his cock trapped against her belly. She could feel her skin grow slippery as he thrust against her, rumbling growl vibrating his chest as he licked his way across her jaw to gently bite the muscle just below her ear.

  Moaning, Penny writhed under him, searching for friction on the bundle of nerves between her thighs. Slick poured from her core, soaking the bedding beneath her as Ethan continued to lick and bite his way down the column of her neck and across her shoulder.

  Moving down her body, he captured her nipple between his lips, sucking it deep as his rough hands stroked her sides, massaging her from ribs to hips.

  Arching her back, she gripped his head, pulling him harder against her chest as he bit down, flicking his tongue over the pebbled peak trapped in his mouth. With a pop, he let it go, turning to its twin. Licking around the areola, he avoided the tip as his fingers slipped under her panties and over her mound to begin stroking her lower lips with a touch so light, she almost thought she was imagining it.

  Torn between wanting him to touch her nipple and her clit, Penny thrashed her head, moaning in frustration as he teased her.

  “Take me!” she growled at him, yanking on his head so he was forced to look up into her eyes.

  Growling, both hands stopped, moving to press into the bed at her sides as he repositioned, the head of his cock pressing against her entrance, a thin slip of fabric the only thing between them. Penny gripped the bed at her sides and pressed her unbooted heel into the back of his thigh, urging him to press into her harder.

  Sitting up, Ethan looked down on her, gripping her hips and lifting her butt from the bed to angle her the way he wanted. Grabbing the sides of her panties, he gave a sharp yank, ripping the thin fabric and tossing it off the bed. Repositioning his shaft, he slammed into her with one rough thrust, burying his length in her core all at once.

  Penny threw her head back and screamed.

  29. Ethan

  He froze as Penelope’s cunt fluttered around his shaft. Gritting his teeth together, Ethan gripped her hips so hard he knew there would be bruises, but he tried to give her time to adjust to his size.

  Rocking gently, he waited until her body began to relax before he started to move, her heel on the back of his thigh pulling him in even as her clenching core tried to expel him. Starting slow, he only pulled out a couple of inches before thrusting back into her, using his grip on her hips to make sure he bottomed out in her pussy with every stroke he made.

  Moaning, Penelope’s hands released their grip on the bed and moved to her breasts, cupping them and pinching the nipples between her fingers. Leaning forward, Ethan flicked his tongue over the dark red tips, drawing more whimpers from her.

  Pulling out until just the tip remained inside of her, he used her hips to slam into her over and over, Penelope’s head thrown back as she moaned and continued to urge him on no matter how rough he was. Adjusting his legs, he released her hips and braced his arms next to her body, pressing her into the mattress as his thrusts grew faster.

  Running his nose along her shoulder, he drew in her sweet jasmine scent mixed with the smell of her slick. She was irresistible to him, and he began to press kisses up the side of her throat, tasting her sweat soaked skin.

  Reaching her ear, Ethan licked along the shell before sucking the lobe into his mouth, biting down gently and growling into it. He felt a gush of slick coat his thighs as Penelope’s body shuddered, and he released her ear to nibble along her jaw. He couldn’t get enough of the taste of her.

  Stroking the hair back from her face with one hand, he cupped the back of her head and tipped it back, taking her lips with his as he continued to pump into her. The hunger and need in the kiss took his breath away, and Ethan released her to sit up again.

  Eyes running down her body, he marveled at her. She was soft and feminine, curved in all the right places, and he ne
ver wanted to let her go.

  Watching his cock slide in and out of her pussy, he used his thumb to brush over her clit, causing her legs to jerk as she bucked up into his touch. Slowing his thrusts, he continued to brush gently over her clit as she began to move erratically.

  “Please! I need it!” Penelope cried.

  Wrapping one arm under her lower back, he pressed down hard on her clit and released a rough growl as he began to slam into her, her entire body rocking with his thrusts. It only took three strokes before her back bowed and she screamed, cunt clutching at his shaft as her orgasm swept through her.

  Moving his hand from her clit, he wrapped it around her and swept it up her back to clutch Penelope around the back of the neck, supporting her body as he continued to pound into her pussy.

  Feeling his knot begin to swell, Ethan bent his head down, scraping his teeth along Penelope’s shoulder. Locking his knot behind her pubic bone with a final thrust, he bit down, sinking his teeth into the smooth skin on the side of her neck, just below her ear, and began to pump her full of cum with a ragged moan. The taste of copper flooded his tongue as he broke skin, leaving his mark on her and binding them together.

  Chest heaving and chills racing down his spine, Ethan held on, emptying himself inside of her. When his cock finally stopped spasming, he opened his jaw, releasing Penelope’s flesh before licking over the wound. Beneath him, Penelope whined before letting out a purr as her hands ran up his back to clutch him tight.

  Rolling over, he pulled her on top of him, letting her lay on his chest as their breathing slowed, returning her purr with one of his own. Knot locked deep in her core, he wasn’t sure how long they lay like that. Both of them had drifted off before it finally deflated, a rush of their mixed fluids coating him and the bed where they lay.

  Immediately Penelope moaned, rocking on the semi-hard shaft still inside of her.

  “I need more,” she whispered against his chest.

  Sliding his hands down to her ass, Ethan gripped her cheeks, pulling her so that her clit rubbed against him with each rock of her hips.

  Cock hardening at the feel of her pussy moving on him again, Penelope pressed her hands to his chest, sitting up and beginning to ride him in earnest. Watching her breasts sway and bounce with her movements, he ran his hands up her sides to grip them, squeezing the whole mound in his hand before pulling on the nipples.

  Swirling her hips, Penelope threw her head back as Ethan moaned, taking a nipple into his mouth as his hands went back to gripping her ass, lifting her and slamming her back down on his cock. Squeezing and massaging her cheeks, he pulled them apart, slipping his fingers down to brush over her back hole.

  Squealing, Penelope jerked forward, attempting to escape his finger, but he didn’t give her the space to move, sitting up to hold her in place. Still pumping his hips up into her, he swirled his fingers through their fluids before rubbing them over the dark bud.

  Letting out a purr, Ethan pressed his finger into her as her hips began to jerk. With a moan that grew into a scream of pleasure, he felt her pussy begin to milk him, her body trembling as the orgasm moved through her.

  Cock pulsing, his knot inflated, locking again in her still trembling cunt. Going limp in his arms, Penelope moaned, still rocking her hips as she rode out the aftershocks. Pressing his lips to hers, Ethan thrust his tongue into her mouth, stroking as he wrapped his arms around her and laid them back down.

  Penelope snuggled into his chest, occasional shivers running down her body as he stroked her hair and rested while he had the chance. Her heat was going to take a lot from both of them, and neither had the chance to prepare for it. He didn’t regret biting her, but he knew it was going to cause issues.

  Pushing those thoughts away, he drew in a deep breath of their combined scent, letting his mind drift away as he increased his purr.

  30. Penelope

  Penny awoke on Ethan’s chest, the sculpted muscles warm beneath her body. Her mind was still cloudy, but the painful cramps had begun again and provided a bit of clarity. Looking around the room, she had no idea where she was, but since they were together, she assumed they were safe. At least for the moment.

  Stomach tightening, Penny let out a whine as slick leaked from her core, causing Ethan to stir beneath her. Scooting forward, she nuzzled her nose into his neck, licking him as his hands came up to caress her back.

  “Already need more?”

  Ethan’s voice was rough with sleep and sent tingles down her spine as a wave of heat washed over her. Penny’s only answer was a moan as he buried his fingers in her hair and pulled her face up to kiss her.

  Tongues dueling, his other hand slipped down her back to curl over her ass, fingers stroking her lower lips. Trying to press down on his fingers, Ethan held her in place with the hand in her hair.

  Breaking the kiss, Penny let out a squeak when he flipped them over, his larger body looming over her. Pulling her head back, Ethan pressed kisses down her neck, licking and sucking her skin.

  Cupping her breasts with his hands, he took one nipple into his mouth as he pinched the other, the warring sensations of pain and pleasure swamping her mind and causing her pussy to clench in need.

  Writhing beneath him, Penny whimpered, running her nails over Ethan’s shoulders. She felt him shiver as he bit down on her nipple, causing her to cry out. Hands moving to his head, her fingers clenched in his hair even as she tried to pull herself away from his mouth.

  Releasing her nipple, he began to kiss his way down her belly as his hands slid down to cup her hips. Tipping them up, he settled between her spread thighs, running his nose along her slit.

  “You smell delicious,” he groaned before his tongue swept between her folds.

  Hips bucking up, Penny let out a cry. Using his thumbs to pull her open, Ethan ran his tongue along the edge of her lips before dipping it into her core. Muscles clenching, she could feel her orgasm building as he licked his way up to her clit.

  Circling it, he teased her for a moment before sucking it into his mouth. She exploded with the first hard suck, hands clenching and tugging at Ethan’s hair as her legs jerked. Shivers rolling down her body, Penny went limp, basking in the afterglow.

  Lapping up the slick flowing from her clenching core, Ethan continued to torture her until she pressed on his forehead, begging him to stop.

  “Too much! Please!”

  With a grumble he pulled back, moving her legs from his shoulders to crawl up her body. Pressing kisses to her breasts, he licked the side of her neck before continuing forward. She watched his chest and abs pass over her head before he stopped.

  Taking her wrists in his hands, he pulled them above her head as he straddled her. Knees even with her shoulders, Ethan’s cock bobbed just out of reach of Penny’s lips. Ignoring what he was doing with her hands, she leaned her head forward, succeeding in capturing the head of his cock in her mouth.

  Rolling her tongue around his tip, she sealed her lips around it and sucked, moaning as the taste of his precum flooded her mouth. Trying to wiggle down so she could take more of it into her mouth, she was stopped by the cuffs he had attached to her wrists.

  Pulling himself out of her reach, Ethan smirked down at her as he backed towards the end of the bed.

  “Now I can do what I want without you interfering,” he said as he stood.

  Penny tried to scoot back up to give her arms some slack, but he grabbed the ankle without the boot, pulling her body taut as he wrapped a cuff around it as well. Eyes wide, she watched him as he began to prowl around the bed, gaze stroking over her body. When he returned to the foot of the bed she whimpered, lifting her hips.

  “Do you need something, sweet omega?”

  Nodding her head, she thrust her hips up again, silently begging him to touch her.

  “Hmm, I don’t understand. Maybe you should use your words.”

  Watching her, Ethan remained at the end of the bed, cock standing proud from where the V of muscles met between hi
s hips as he waited for her.

  “Touch me,” Penny whispered.

  Smile tipping up the corner of his lips, he reached out and ran his fingers over the top of her foot, sending a tingle up her leg that went straight to her clit.

  “Like this?”

  Tossing her head side to side, she whimpered, “No!”

  Humming, Ethan moved to the side of the bed, hand sliding up her calf until his fingers were stroking the back of her knee.

  “Like this?” he teased.

  Eyes narrowing, Penny bared her teeth at him.

  “No!”

  His grin grew wider at her irritation even as his fingers tickled up the inside of her thigh. Stopping just short of her pussy, he stroked the sensitive skin of her upper thigh with the tips of his fingers.

  “Touch my pussy,” Penny demanded after he continued to stroke her for a minute, thrusting her hips up towards him again.

  She wasn’t expecting the sharp slap he delivered to the skin he had previously been stroking, and she jerked away, gasping in shock.

  “Watch your tone omega. I’m the one in charge,” Ethan said with a growl.

  Stroking the stinging skin again, Penny writhed as he stared down at her. Waiting.

  “Please,” she whined. “Touch me, Alpha.”

  Releasing a purr, his hand moved to her swollen lower lips, stroking and tugging on them before slipping his fingers between her folds. Circling her clit, Penny moaned as Ethan climbed back onto the bed between her legs.

  “Fuck me. Fuck me please,” she begged breathlessly, looking up into his eyes.

  Bending the knee of her free leg, she pushed the boot down into the bed to spread herself and lift her hips, trying to entice him to do as she asked. Drawing in a deep breath, Ethan released a low growl, as he stared at her cunt.
