Mated to the Alpha: Sold to the King novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182: 0182

Lorelei POV

I watched as Kaelen’s jaw tightened, the muscle jumping once along the sharp line of it as his amber eyes dimmed into something darker, hotter, almost predatory.

A low, dangerous growl rumbled deep in his chest, the vibration traveling straight through his body and into mine where we were pressed together, settling against my ribs and sinking lower until it curled in my belly.

Without warning, his free hand shot down, seizing my hip hard enough to bruise as his fingers slipped beneath the soft fabric of my dress. He found the thin band of my underwear, gripped it, then tugged at it once, his touch making my breath catch.

"You’ve gotten really good at testing me," he said, his voice rough and thick with the restraint he was barely holding onto.

With that, his hand slid farther, the broad pad of his fingers pushing past the lace and brushing lightly over my bare folds.

The contact was deliberate, slow, almost gentle, yet the heat of his skin against my slick, sensitive flesh made my breath hitch hard in my throat. My hips jerked upward of their own accord, chasing more of that fleeting pressure as a shiver ran through me.

"Can’t you see I’m trying really hard to be a gentleman?" he murmured, the words coming out as a rasp against my mouth as he leaned in close again.

I didn’t answer with words. Instead, my hips buckled harder, rolling and tilting as I tried to position his fingers exactly where I needed them, silently urging him to slide between my folds and press inside.

The movement was shameless and desperate, the wet heat of me coating the tips of his fingers, and the moment they shifted even a fraction deeper, a soft, broken sound escaped me.

He was so close, so close to slipping in, so close to giving me what my body was already clenching for, yet somehow, he was still holding back.

The tips of his fingers hovered right there, coated in me, refusing to give me what I needed, and frustration flared in my chest.

Without thinking, I reached down, seized his wrist with both hands, and forced his fingers inside me in one rough push.

Two thick digits slid deep, stretching me open, and the sudden fullness dragged a broken moan from my throat. It wasn’t the same, nowhere close to the thick, heavy stretch of his cock buried to the hilt, but it was something, and right then, I was desperate enough to take whatever I could get.

I started moving immediately, rolling my hips back and forth as I fucked myself on his fingers with short, desperate strokes, each movement making me take them deeper while shaky exhales slipped from my lips.

The wet sound of it filled the quiet space between us, and somehow, hearing it only made the heat rushing through my body burn even hotter.

Kaelen’s breath hitched hard, and for a fraction of a second, his amber eyes went entirely black as his wolf surged to the surface at the shameless way I rolled my hips against his hand.

His jaw locked tightly, and the growl that tore from his chest was so raw that it sent another shiver through me.
