Taming Todd (Maple Hart) Read online

  “I like your kisses,” I told him bluntly. “But I prefer it if you did more.”

  I touched his lips with two fingers and then the stubble on his jaw. I moved my hand lower, brushing against his hard pectorals, his ribs, his sick pack abs.

  I was about to reach for the hem of his boxers but he caught my fingers. Marco let out a low and warning growl, like an animal.

  At that moment, he looked completely predatory.

  I gasped when he turned the tables on me. Marco rolled on top of me and pinned my arms above my head.

  “You sure to want to play this game, Omega?” He asked in a deep and rough voice that sent tingles down my spine.

  “You made me wait,” I whispered. “I can’t go slow and easy with you.”

  “Me neither.”

  My heart thumped at those words. Marco’s mouth crashed with mine. He thrust heat down my throat, making my toes curl.

  I parted my lips a little wider, only for the Alpha to deepen his kiss. My dick thickened against my boxers, begging for release.

  My mind felt like it was full of cobwebs when I woke up, but now, it was filled with razor-sharp clarity.

  I wanted this Alpha with every fiber of my being. No one else.

  When Marco released me from the kiss, I whispered, “Make me yours.”

  Marco didn’t tell me this was a bad idea. It seemed he was sick of waiting around, too. Marco released my arms and left kisses down the side of my neck, my collarbones.

  He left a path of tiny bites down my chest. He took one flat nipple into his mouth and sucked hard, making me moan.

  The Alpha continued his assault of pleasure. Marco nipped his way down my ribs, my stomach. He gripped my boxers and with one tug, the fabric ripped.

  I sucked in a breath, completely turned on by his savage gesture.

  I shoved the ruined fabric aside. I was finally completely exposed and naked to his gaze.

  Marco settled between my thighs. He parted my legs wide and eyed my hardening dick, my balls, and my pink hole so intensely, I blushed.

  “What are you doing?” I asked.

  Marco flashed me an impish grin, then he lowered his mouth to my privates. He blew at the red tip of my prick, which was already leaking pre-cum. I shuddered.

  Marco tongued away the pearly droplets, then proceeded to explore me from root to tip.

  He reached for my balls and began squeezing them. The Alpha applied just the right amount of pleasure.

  I dug my hands into the sheets, unable to believe this was finally happening. Alphas always took. They were seldom on the giving end but I shouldn’t have been surprised Marco was a generous lover.

  Marco kept his gaze trained on my face the entire and damn, that was the sexiest thing ever.

  Marco

  Todd’s moans of pleasure sounded like music to my ears. I’ve never gone down on any of my lovers before.

  Usually, I was on the receiving end but tonight, I wanted to help ease Todd’s fears.

  I didn’t like seeing Todd hurting. He was more rattled by his stalker than he was letting on.

  Brave Omega.

  Todd was barely holding it together.

  I paused from my task. “Relax. Tonight is all about your pleasure.”

  I eyed my handiwork. Todd’s cock was at half-mast. I could do something about that.

  I sheathed my mouth over his prick. Once the tip of his dick hit the back of my throat, I pulled up for air. I bobbed my head up and down.

  Once Todd’s shaft was full, I retracted my mouth.

  I scooted upwards, kissing him, making him taste his own need. I moved my hand down the line of his body.

  I silently marvelled at the fact this slender Omega was all mine. Anyone who came between us was going to meet a terrible end because I was ruled by primitive emotions when it came to Todd.

  He was mine alone and I didn’t like to share.

  Todd kissed me back fervently as I continued working his prick. I alternated between fast and slow strokes.

  It didn’t take long for Todd to reach climax. I released his mouth, wanting to hear him crying out my name as he came undone. Todd spilled his jizz into my waiting fingers.

  When I lifted my wet hand to his face, Todd seemed to know what to do. He leaned forward and licked his need off my digits.

  I groaned. My prick felt like a steel pipe between my legs.

  “Are you going to fuck me now?” He asked, licking the droplets of cum that lingered on his bottom lip.

  Fuck, but that was a sexy sight.

  “You bet,” I replied.

  I already knew how I wanted him. I’ve been fantasizing about this moment since the day I met him. I rolled out of bed.

  “Scoot down,” I commanded.

  Todd obeyed me without question. After taking off my boxers, I positioned myself right in front of him.

  I hefted his legs over my shoulders. Like this, he was completely splayed open for me. Alphas and Omegas recovered quickly, so I knew it was only a matter of time before his dick got hard for me.

  “This feels so intimate,” Todd whispered. “I’ve never been fucked like this before.”

  “I want to see the expression on your face when I fuck you senseless,” I told him.

  Todd blushed, his cheeks and neck turning pink. I knew Todd didn’t get embarrassed easily so seeing this adorable side of him was a treat.

  I slipped a finger inside his puckered hole, unsurprised to find Todd already slick for me. Omegas were self-lubricating, making things easy for both of us.

  I added a second and third digit in his ass and began making twisting motions. A moan spilled from Todd’s lips.

  “Stop teasing me and take me already,” he murmured.

  “Be patient. I’m not exactly small. The last thing I want to do is hurt you during our first time.” I explained.

  Todd eyed my erection and licked his lips. “Oh don’t worry. I can take you.”

  Cocky words. We’d see if he had anything more to say once I started riding him.

  Deeming him ready, I pulled my fingers out. I guided my cock into his entrance. Gripping his hips, I nudged my prick in.

  I gritted my teeth, urging myself to go slow. Once I pushed past the thick and stubborn ring of muscles, it became easier.

  I buried myself inside Todd’s ass to the hilt, resting my balls against the curve of his ass.

  “You weren’t kidding about being big,” Todd said, sounding slightly breathless.

  “It’s time to make you fly.”

  I blanketed my body over his and gave him a kiss on the mouth for a job well done.

  The hard part was over. It was time to wash away the initial burst of pain and replace it with ecstasy.

  I started with slow and quick strokes, before moving faster and deeper with each turn. Todd groaned, clawing at the sheets above him.

  We locked gazes.

  “More,” he uttered.

  I picked up the rhythm. Sweat coated our bodies as I reduced us both to panting and groaning animals.

  The mattress’ springs creaked underneath us. Neither of us spoke. We let our bodies do all the talking.

  Each time I breached Todd, it felt like I was touching the most intimate parts of him. Todd’s soul felt like it was laid bare and open for me.

  I noticed with some satisfaction that Todd’s prick had thickened once again. He was ready to burst any second now. So was I.

  When it came to Todd, my control was fragile.

  I switched the angle of my thrusts and must’ve hit his sweet spot because Todd arched his back.

  He gasped, eyes widening as I targeted his prostate over and over again. Every muscle in my body tensed up. My balls tightened. My cock was near bursting point.

  One last thrust seemed to do the trick because Todd let out a scream. He gripped my shoulders hard, leaving nail marks.

  Todd came, painting my abs with his cum. The next time I buried myself inside him, my knot swe
lled, shocking both of us.

  This was the first time I’ve ever knotted an Omega, which only affirmed Todd was the one man I’ve been waiting for my entire life.

  There was no mistaking it now.

  Todd was my fated mate.

  He stared at me. “How long will it last?”

  “A couple of minutes,” I gritted out. I knew that much. “Stay with me.”

  I rested my forehead against his, then kissed him slowly, softly. I didn’t stop until my knot released him and I deposited a flood of my seed down his waiting ass.

  In my head, I heard the sound of tiny footsteps, laughter as I envisioned a pair of kids running through the length of Todd’s apartment. Kids who looked like him and me.

  Was I getting way ahead of myself?

  Letting out a shuddering breath, I pulled my prick out of him. Todd moved further up in bed. I made a quick trip to the bathroom to grab a towel.

  Once I returned to Todd, I cleaned us both and then joined him in bed.

  Todd snuggled right next to me. I wrapped my arms around him, refusing to let him go. I pondered on my earlier question.

  Never in a million years did I ever picture myself putting down roots and building a home and family with an Omega.

  Now that I found Todd, I realized I wanted to make that vision into a reality.

  “What are you thinking about?” Todd asked.

  My Omega didn’t sound the least bit sleepy despite the rough night he had.

  “The future,” I answered honestly.

  I had no plans of keeping anything from Todd.

  Todd twisted in my arms. I relaxed my hold so he could lie on his side and look me in the eye.

  “I’ve been thinking about that, too,” Todd said.

  I took his hands in mine and squeezed them.

  “Does that mean we’re officially together?” Todd asked, smiling.

  “We’re more than that. I never had plans to let you go,” I admitted. “I thought I could discover the stalker and once my job’s done, I’d go after you without regrets.”

  “You couldn’t wait because I was so irresistible, right?” Todd said.

  There he was.

  The sassy and opinionated Omega I fell madly in love with.

  “Yep. I don’t regret what happened tonight but Todd,” I paused, then rested my hand on his still flat stomach. “We didn’t use protection.”

  “Oh? I thought you did that on purpose.” My Omega stole a kiss from my mouth. There was a mischievous look in his eyes. “Silly Alpha. Can’t you tell? I want your babies.”

  I looked at Todd solemnly.

  “I want you to know that I care about you very much. I love you. If I managed to get you pregnant, I want to do things right. You’re going to be my husband and we’re going to plan our home and future together, every step of the way.”

  Was I rushing things?

  Those three little words slipped out by accident. We’ve known each other for only a week and yet I knew that I didn’t want to waste any more time playing around.

  Todd was born to be my mine and I was made to be his. Destiny pushed us together for a reason.

  We started as strangers but I knew right away I wanted to spend the rest of my life with this Omega.

  Still, unloading that much information on someone could be overwhelming.

  It turned out I didn’t have anything to worry about because Todd kissed me again.

  “Guess what? I love you, too. Did you just propose?” Todd asked.

  I laughed. “Don’t worry. When the time’s right, I’ll do it properly.”

  “Well, you better. You know I like things done in a grand matter.”

  “I do.” I kissed my Omega on the cheek. “Now go to sleep. I’ll be here right next to you. I’ll chase all your nightmares away.”

  Todd

  “You look different today, almost like your old self,” Gary remarked that morning.

  “It shows, huh?” I asked.

  I felt like I was floating on cloud nine. Last night changed everything for Marco and I.

  We were like lovestruck teenagers who couldn’t get enough of each other. Before going to the studio, I lured Marco into the shower. Unable to repel my charms, he fucked me good and nice.

  I always rolled my eyes whenever I saw my mated cousins. They were completely obsessed with their mates.

  I used to think they were ridiculous but having found my mate, I understood them a little better.

  Gina, my make-up artist, finished working on me. I gave her a thumbs-up sign, then exited the dressing room.

  My Alpha was standing right outside. I gave him a wink. Marco nodded. He didn’t smile but I knew he was just being alert and focused on his job.

  I joined the other actors on set. I was in such a great mood, I nearly forgot I had stalker.

  Time flew by quickly. Several scenes later, Marco and I left the studio. We had lunch at a recently opened Mexican restaurant nearby.

  I also felt good to get some fresh air. We stopped at my favorite bakery for chocolate donuts, which we ate on the way back.

  “Any new gifts from Randy today?” I had to ask.

  He shook his head. “Not one.”

  I frowned, finishing my donut. “That’s odd, isn’t it?”

  “It is. He sends gifts daily.” Marco paused. “Let me worry about him. Focus on the job you love.”

  That right there was one of the things I loved about my Alpha. Marco saw me and understood me better than anyone.

  Some of my cousins thought I pursued this career path for fame and attention. That was partly true, but Marco knew right away I was in love with my craft.

  “Marco,” I began. “About what we talked about last night.”

  “Yeah?”

  “What if I do get pregnant? Would you want me to stop working?”

  That thought had been nagging at me since we left the apartment for the studio that morning.

  “I support whatever you want to do,” Marco said. “I can’t take you away from what you love.”

  I blinked. I really should’ve expected that answer from my thoughtful Alpha.

  Most traditional Alphas preferred their Omegas to remain at home and care for their kids.

  I was raised in a non-conventional family. My Pa, my Omega dad usually ran circles around my Alpha dad.

  “My Pa once told Aaron and me that he pitied our future Alpha partners because we’re both hard to handle,” I told Marco. I pondered on what he said. “If we do have kids, I’ll take a little break from acting. I want to watch them grow up.”

  Marco smiled and reached for my hand. He squeezed by fingers.

  “We’ll work something out. We can take turns. While you’re working, I can look after them and vice versa,” he said.

  “Sounds like a good arrangement.” I couldn’t ask for a better mate.

  After finishing off our desserts, we returned to the studio. I needed a costume change. I was about to enter my dressing room but Marco used his big body to block me.

  I was about to ask him what happened, but I noticed he was frowning. I looked over his shoulder.

  “What are you doing inside Todd’s dressing room?” Marco asked in a tight voice.

  I blinked, seeing Daniel inside. What was even more curious was the fact he was holding onto a vase of wilted black roses.

  The make-up artist could be at the wrong place at the wrong time, but I didn’t miss the lavender envelope poking from his left jacket pocket.

  I barely interacted with Daniel because he was usually assigned to work on the the female actresses.

  My heart thudded violently.

  Could Daniel be my stalker?

  Someone groaned. I gasped, only seeing Gary on the ground. Blood trickled from a cut on his forehead.

  Daniel set the vase down on the table and spun to face us. The other Omega looked like a rat caught in a trap.

  My mind worked furiously to connect the dots. Gary mus
t’ve gotten in Daniel’s way. Gary then got hurt in the process.

  “You weren’t supposed to return until much later,” Daniel said.

  The Omega checked his watch then glared daggers at my Alpha. Marco stood his ground, not saying or doing anything yet.

  I understood the reasons for Marco’s actions. Neither of us knew how Daniel would react and we both understood how unhinged Daniel was through his letters.

  I tried to recall everything I knew about Daniel. He slept with almost everyone at the studio and he wasn’t well-liked.

  The female actresses always complained Daniel was the most difficult make-up artist to work with.

  I realized I knew next to nothing about the real Daniel. He certainly had access to every inch of the studio and he’d been working here for as long as I did.

  “Daniel, are you Randy?” I asked in a whisper.

  Daniel turned his gaze to me and I was stunned by the change in his expression.

  Daniel had looked at Marco with nothing but open hostility but the stare he directed at me was one of reverent worship.

  “Dave,” he whispered. “I didn’t want to introduce myself to you like this, but no matter. Once I get you alone in our dream house—”

  I froze up completely.

  “Like hell that’s going to happen,” Marco thundered. “Give it up, Daniel. You’re caught.”

  Daniel’s face contorted to one of pure rage. He bit on his lower lip so hard, blood welled. Veins popped out from his forehead like he was undergoing some sort of monstrous transformation.

  He looked from Marco to me and sneered.

  “I get it now. Marco, you refused my advances the other day because you want to have Dave all to yourself, don’t you? Selfish prick,” Daniel said with a hiss.

  “You hit on Marco because you wanted him out of the way,” I murmured as the awful realization dawned on me.

  “That’s right. Don’t you worry, Dave? Once I get rid of the competition, we have plenty of time together.”

  “I don’t understand. You slept with almost everyone in the studio except me,” I began.

  “All the people I’ve had sex with meant nothing to me. Playing the part of the slutty make-up artist is just another act for me. Dave, you’re the one I really love,” Daniel said.
