The fever was back. Or whatever it was that had Reese burning from the inside out. And it only happened when Tiberius was there.
The elevator doors dinged and opened, and Tiberius was hauling him again by the arm toward his room. Reese was breathless, a little dizzy.
Aroused. Horny. Burning with lust. The way the alpha was dragging him along shouldn’t be a turn-on, but it was. It should speak to all the fears Reese had carried inside him since he was a little omega bullied by alphas in school, but it wasn’t.
Because it was Tiberius.
And because he was Reese’s alpha and that aggression got Reese all aroused and ready.
His alpha... He kept feeling that way, but it made no sense. Tiberius hadn’t Claimed him. But Reese kept feeling that it was true. He was in so much trouble...
The moment they entered the room, Tiberius pushed him against the wall and kissed the hell out of him. His taste flooded Reese’s senses. So right. He smelled delicious. When he lifted Reese up easily, Reese wrapped his legs around the alpha’s muscular thighs and he thought he’d come just from the feel of his hard cock pressing through the fabric against the alpha’s huge one.
It was... different from last time. He was desperate then, painfully aroused, and he was desperate now, too, but his head was clear as they kissed and rubbed together. The fog that had been hanging over his brain all week was clearing.
This was what he needed.
Who he needed.
As if reading his mind, Tiberius pulled away from the wall, carrying Reese as if he weighed nothing, and throwing him onto the bed. Before Reese could even curse in shock, his clothes had been ripped off—literally ripped, seams ripping, buttons flying—and Tiberius was shedding his own clothes.
God, the alpha was seriously ripped. Muscles rippled in that lickworthy chest as Tiberius leaned over him, his stomach a perfect six-pack. Biceps bulged, and a massive hard-on pressed against Reese’s thigh.
He arched up helplessly. He wanted it, so damn badly. “Ty...”
“Fuck, yeah. I like it when you call me that.” The alpha moved lower to lick Reese’s left nipple, then the right, until they bunched up into tight little nubs.
“Ow... God, yes.” Reese writhed in pain and pleasure. His nipples felt so sensitive. “Ugh...”
Tiberius flicked up a wicked look, and this time he lightly bit one nipple, making Reese cry out. He licked it, soothing, but Reese was almost incoherent with need.
“Please, Ty, please...”
“Want this?” Tiberius rubbed his hot cock against Reese’s thigh again and Reese moaned. “Want it in you?”
“Yes, yes...”
Tiberius’s fingers were between his legs, pushing into him, and it was not enough, but it was good, and Reese keened, rocking, reaching for his hand-on. A big hand slapped his aside. “Mine,” he growled. “You’ll come without touching your cock.”
“Fuck me,” Reese breathed, “please, Ty...”
“What you do to me,” the alpha whispered, and then he was guiding his cock into Reese. It was shocking, just like the last time, how big it was.
And how Reese opened up to accommodate that girth, the big head breaching him, that hard length pushing deep into him.
Oh God. All words deserted him. Last time, he had to have Tiberius’s cock inside him. It had been a terrible, aching need.
Now it was pure pleasure, rising higher and higher with each thrust and push, until Reese was moaning loudly and rocking his hips, gripping the alpha’s shoulders and knowing he was about to have a shattering orgasm that would break him apart.
“Ty... Oh fuck!” Reese arched back as he came, his cock jerking between them, spraying his chest with jets of cum. “Oh...”
“Yeah, baby. You’re so hot.” Tiberius was still fucking him through the orgasm, making him whimper, sending more waves of pleasure through him. “Beautiful. Want you so fucking bad. Damn...”
And incredibly, Reese’s cock was still half-hard, the need still there. “Ty.” He moaned, rocking with the alpha’s thrusts. “Oh shit...”
“You can come again,” Tiberius growled. “I know it. I want you to.”
And it was as if that command was all Reese’s body needed as he got fully hard again, groaning and shuddering. “God...”
“That’s it.” Tiberius’s thrusts were becoming erratic. He was close to coming, for sure, his cock huge inside Reese, hot like fire, hard like steel. “Come with me. Come with me, Reese. Come now.”
Every command tightened the knot of desire inside Reese more, until he was moaning brokenly and coming again, his hole clenching hard, his cock spilling.
“Oh, fuck yeah...” And then Tiberius was coming, too, groaning Reese’s name, shooting deep inside Reese.
Whatever happened... sex with the alpha was mind-blowing. The fact that he’d been the one and only guy Reese had ever had sex with was relevant, probably—but who cared? Reese couldn’t bring himself to give a damn right now.
But... what would happen next?
***
“What are you thinking?” Tiberius murmured.
Reese looked up into the alpha’s face. He never thought alphas were much for cuddling, but the way Tiberius was holding him... “Just thinking about my studies,” he lied. “I’m behind, and need to study harder.”
Tiberius hummed, as if in agreement, but didn’t release Reese. Those muscular arms around him felt less like a cage and more like an embrace. They made Reese felt protected, cared for.
“How about you?”
Tiberius frowned. “I’m thinking about you,” he said.
“Really?”
“Yeah.” The frown melted away. “You don’t believe me? I’ve been thinking about you every day.”
Reese swallowed hard. “I find it hard to believe. After all, you left without a word. After firing me. And fucking me. I thought you didn’t want to see me again.”
“I’m sorry,” the alpha said quietly. “My friend Marcus had an accident. He called and I drove over to his family manor to look after him. his family... they aren’t there. I wanted to call you but realized I didn’t have your number. You’re nowhere to be found online. Why aren’t you online, Reese?”
“I just don’t want to be found online.” He shrugged.
“Why, Reese?”
“Do I need a reason?” Reese whispered, his heart pounding. He had to change the topic. “So what happened to your friend?”
“He’s an idiot. Went and got himself got in a bear trap, in a park on the frontier with the human lands.”
“Ouch.”
“Yeah.”
“Is he okay?”
“He will be. I dunno. I left him home alone to come find you. I was scared... damn scared that something might happen to you. And I couldn’t stop thinking about you.”
Holy shit. He had done that for Reese. Leaving his injured friend behind to come find Reese.
“Reese?”
Reese reached up and stroked the alpha’s cheek, the strong jawline. “I couldn’t stop thinking about you, either.”
“I thought by the time I come back, an alpha might have taken you.”
“Against my will?”
“Maybe. I couldn’t stand the thought,” Tiberius said earnestly, dark eyes intense.
“You were jealous?”
“And worried. Alphas can’t always control themselves around pretty omegas.”
“You think I’m pretty?”
Tiberius blinked. “Are you fucking with me? You’re the prettiest omega I’ve ever seen. The prettiest boy ever.”
“Oh.” Heat suffused Reese’s face. “Shit. I mean...Thanks.”
“You’re welcome.” And Tiberius kissed him, and again. “God, when you blush like that...”
“What?”
“You’re hot.”
“Yeah, I feel warm.” Reese made as if to withdraw his hand from Tiberius’s face to touch his own, but Tiberius turned his head and kissed Reese’s palm. “Oh.”
His hand tingled.
Pleasure shot straight to his cock.
“You’re sexy, Reese,” the alpha said, his breath tickling Reese’s palm, “and I want you back in my service. I’m not letting any other alpha put his hands on you, got it?”
“Got it,” Reese whispered, and thought his heart might burst with excitement.
Why was he so excited? Tiberius was just being a typical, jealous caveman alpha, annoyed at the prospect of anyone else touching him. Fact was, Tiberius hadn’t promised anything, hadn’t implied anything else except that he desired Reese.
Desire. Pure carnal want and need.
But Reese’s heart was foolish, imagining things, feeling things it had no business feeling, and he couldn’t stop the smile from spreading on his lips as he closed his eyes and fell asleep in his alpha’s arms.
