Contracted to Alpha Maximus - Chapter 9: Chapter 9

ZIA
Aiden didn’t give me the time to recover from my defeat.
He started fucking Emily as soon as night fell and he got the chance to get inside a room with her.
The pain that hit my stomach this time was so intense that I nearly lost my conscious. I crawled on the floor of my assigned bedroom. My insides were twisting, my heart was hurting and my head was just blank.
Then, something clicked.
Despite the excruciating pain, I pushed myself to my feet and staggered out of the room. The corridors were drowning in darkness in the middle of the night and there was no one in sight.
But I knew where I had to go.
I stumbled over the floor and made my way to the East wing of this mansion where I heard the Alpha King’s room was located.
My whimpers of pain filled the space as I found myself standing outside his door. He wouldn’t kick me out, right?
I scoffed and suffered another wave of pain. Fuck it! I needed to do this now, even if I was angry at Maximus.
Without knocking, I turned the knob and stepped inside the dark room. With labored breaths, I rushed towards the lump on the bed.
As his scent grew, and sparks rushed down my spine, the pain started to lessen. I could stand straight and I could breathe without feeling my lungs on fire.
This was the magic of fated mates.
They could take away any pain, and give you instant relief.
But the distance between us didn’t allow me to settle. I climbed his bed and kowtowed towards his figure on the other side.
My heart clenched, and my back arched as I got so close to him that I could see his features.
He was like a devil. But he was so painfully beautiful that I couldn’t even hate him properly.
He looked so relaxed right now with his hair falling over his forehead in a ruffled mess, his dangerous eyes closed and his sinful lips sealed.
The sheets were pulled to his shoulders, leaving just a little of his skin exposed and I was desperate to see more, to touch more.
As I admired him, warmth trickled down my thighs. My primal instincts were forcing me to pounce on my mate and let him have his way with me, let him devour me until I was writhing with pleasure.
Before I could shake that thought off or act on the dirty ideas, his hand shot out and gripped my neck. I gasped, my eyes widening in horror.
“ I thought you hated me, Little one. ” His sleepy, sinful voice whispered in the dark.
Desire flamed in my veins like I never felt it before. I trembled, pushing my neck more into his gentle palm.
“ I do. ” I whispered.
“ What are you doing in my bed? ” He squeezed, just a little, a small warning.
I gasped, my hands finding their way to his wrist. It was so wide and warm under my grip and his fingers were so thick and long.
“ I- - -I want to use you. ”
How could I say that?
Finding my courage, I swung my left leg around his hips and settled atop him. It was my luck that his hardened crotch was just beneath my wet pussy.
As I pressed down, a moan erupted from my mouth, and my eyes rolled back into my head. This felt so fucking good.
Maximus’s hand squeezed again, another warning, and the last one. But I couldn’t bring myself to wake up.
Aiden was under this roof, busy fucking his mistress and hurting me so much that I wished for death every moment.
Why couldn’t I do the same?
He should hurt too.
He should know what it felt like to have your soul crushed because your marked mate was getting pleasured by someone else.
With that thought in mind, I stole a fearful, inviting glance at Maximus’s face.
He was watching me with those hawk-like eyes, daring me to keep this up and see what consequences awaited me.
I arched my back and grabbed his hand which was squeezing my throat. Maximus’s jaw clenched, his gaze dropping to my hold on him.
Slowly, and carefully, I moved his hand down, to my collarbone, just above my heaving breasts.
His hard cock twitched and thickened under my clothed folds. My thighs clenched, as wetness pooled into them.
I wanted him.
And judging by his darkening gaze and his thickening cock, he wanted me too.
Licking my lips, I moved his hand further down. His fingers slid between my breast valley, missing my peaked nipple.
I shuddered and moved my pussy over his cock unconsciously. His hand closed, bunching the neckline of my silk nightie.
My soul trembled with the intensity of his gaze on me, the heart of his palm, the twitch of his cock.
I had occasional sex with Aiden before but I had never orgasmed or felt true pleasure. It didn’t compare to what this was.
I was losing my mind, forgetting why I was even here as I directed him to release my neckline.
A soft grunt left his mouth, his naked chest rumbling under the sheets. I glanced at his broad shoulders, imagining the way I could dig my nails into them as he pounded into me, hard and fast.
My hips moved forward, before sliding back on his hard cock. I moaned, almost exploding with the little movement.
“ You want to be fucked, Little Bunny? ” He hissed, his cock twitching again.
“ You want me. ” I grind my pussy over his cock, and lost control of my movement.
I was rubbing over him and I didn’t want to stop. My hand guided his palm to my stomach, and my back arched some more.
The warmth of his skin reminded me of the cold pain I suffered all this time. I couldn’t kill my self-respect like other Lunas and accept that Aiden was having sex with Emily. I couldn’t forgive him even if he tried to ask for forgiveness.
“ It- - -It hurts, Maxie. ” I whimpered, tears welling in my eyes.
I didn’t cry in front of others before. I couldn’t bring myself to show them any weakness but Maximus evoked some strange emotions in me.
“ He is having sex with Emily. He- - -He is hurting me. ” Tears slid down my cheeks without any restraints.
I only got the chance to sniffle before Maximus sat up and smashed his lips on mine.
He tasted like whiskey and mint, so masculine and overpowering. I was stunned into forcing my lips shut at the sudden sensation.
“ Open up. ” Maximus pulled back and growled over my lips.
His hand cupped my cheek and he roughly pried my mouth open before he started devouring me like a beast.
Heat traveled down my spine and dripped down my pussy as I moaned against his tongue. He gripped my hips and licked my bottom lip.
“ Rub that pussy over my cock. ” He commanded and gave me just a moment to breathe before I found myself caged in his arms, making out and dry-humping the scary Alpha King.
