Savage Mates

Chapter 44

Chapter Forty-Four Alone with the Alpha

“Why are you trying to make me drink so much water?” Tillie asked as she let go of my hand to

unscrew the lid of the water bottle. “Is it like a kink thing?”

“That mouth sweets…” Travis growled, but I could see the way that his lips twitched as he tried not to

smile at our mate.

“We can’t have you passing out on us, baby girl,” Ryan said, watching Tillie as she drank her water.

“We should stop and get you something to eat before we get to the pack house. Unless you want to

cook for us?”

“I’m not hungry,” Tillie said, but her stomach rumbled, making Ryan smirk at her. His eyes darted to me

and I shrugged. Fixing something for my mate appealed to me on a primal level. My wolf was

practically ready to go out and kill something for her. I doubted that she would like me to bring her a

deer.

“I could fix something.”

“You’re hot and you cook. Maybe I could eat, I mean if you’re cooking?” Tillie asked, looking over at

me. She rested her lips against the water bottle and all I could think about was how it would feel to

have those lips moving along the head of my cock.

“I do.” I swallowed hard and looked away from her, dragging a hand through my hair.

“I got lucky then.” Tillie said, finishing off her water and handing the empty bottle to Travis. “I guess I’ll

see you later.”

“Oh, you will,” Travis said as he leaned over the bar top. He grabbed the front of Tillie’s shirt and she let

out a gasp as he dragged her closer, pressing his lips to hers. “Stay out of trouble until I can watch.”

“Travis, I, I’m not going to get into any trouble.” She said, stumbling over her words as she pulled back.

He shot her a wink before his lips slipped into a smirk.

“I know. You’re a good girl who doesn’t push us.”

Shaking my head, I turned away from the bar, letting Ryan walk with Tillie. He needed the time with her,

but I was going to be selfish when it came to the drive. Having her in my car, all to myself, sounded like

a dream come true.

I made my way to the exit, pushing open the door before stepping outside. Tillie was behind me with

Ryan. I walked further down the sidewalk before turning to look at the two of them.

Ryan had tucked Tillie into his side, his arm wrapped around her waist as they walked. I had never

seen my friend like this with anyone. The look on his face, it was like he was looking at someone he

never wanted to let go of. I could understand it. She made me feel the same way.

His voice was low as he spoke to her, but I could hear the slight rumble of his voice. Her cheeks

flushed and she looked away from the sidewalk to batt her long lashes up at him.

Fuck.

I wanted her to look at me like that. Don’t get me wrong, I was happy for Ryan and thankful that he and Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Travis were willing to share their mate with me. But I hadn’t known how jealous I would feel.

Nothing had prepared me for that. I didn’t know how dragons were able to deal with this. They mated in

thralls so it was normal for them to share. It was expected even.

I had never thought about the fact that I might have to share my mate.

My beast didn’t care. He was relaxed inside of me, still glowing in the fact that we had claimed Tillie.

That we weren’ t going to go feral. That we were headed home to feed our mate and fuck her well into

the night.

“Where did you park?” I asked, looking away from Tillie and Ryan, back towards the moon that hung

high in the sky.

*A few blocks away.” Tillie said, pulling away from Ryan and shifting her purse around. She rummaged

around in her bag until she found her keys and pulled them out.

I looked over at the jangling keys before coming closer to Tillie and taking them from her hand. I

couldn’t help but notice the way the moonlight seemed to make her skin glow

“Goddess, you’re fucking beautiful.”

The blush that stained her cheeks grew deeper and I brought my hand up. Tracing my fingertips over

her lips. They parted and her warm breath moved over my skin. Her pupils flared and I closed my eyes.

Breathing in the scent of her and marveling at the feel of being so close to my mate.

“Can you kiss me now?” She asked and I opened my eyes, looking down at her.

“You don’t want that right now,” I growled, the sound low and dangerous. “Or maybe you do, but if I kiss

you right now. I’m going to drag you into the alleyway and fuck you where anyone could find us. Where

anyone can hear you begging me for more.”

Her lips pressed against the pads of my fingers, her eyes meeting mine as she caught my wrist in her

hand. Her tongue swirled over my digits.

“Being bad can feel so good, though.” She purred up at me and my lips spread into a slow grin. “So can

fucking in public.”

“Oh, kitten. You are playing a very dangerous game.” I said, tucking my tongue behind my teeth.

Ryan moved closer, taking Tillie’s keys from my hand as he pressed his body up against her back. I

looked over at him. His eyes had gone dark but I could almost feel him pulling away.

“Have fun, alpha.” he smirked up at me, pressing his lips to the side of Tillie’s neck before he growled

into her ear. “Don’t push him too much, baby girl. You don’t know what you’re doing yet.”

Her eyes widened and I watched his hands move along her body before he let them fall away. He took

a step back before heading down the sidewalk towards the parking lot.

Turning my head, I looked back down at my mate. We were alone. It would be so easy to haul her body

against mine. To put my hand over her mouth and drag her into that darkened alleyway.
