his mate's hair and reached for the man.
"No need."
Confused, Ben looked down at the man who had just sucked his brains out through his dick. "Didn't you enjoy it?"
"A little too much. I came when you did." Red stained Tommy's cheeks with his admission and Ben couldn't be happier that he turned his mate on so much.
"Come up here anyway. I want to hold you." Being a big tough Alpha, Ben never let anyone see this side of him. Not even his past lovers. He couldn't afford to appear weak in front of anyone, and as such, once the sex was over so was most of the touching. Now, however, things were completely different. Tommy was his mate, and that meant Ben could be himself with the man; he knew in his heart that Tommy would never do anything to hurt him.
Tommy gladly crawled up his larger body, and instead of cuddling in next to him like Ben thought the man would, Tommy curled up on top of him, his head snuggled into the curve of his neck. Ben barely felt the weight of the man as he wrapped his arms around Tommy and held him close.
"Thank you, mate," he said through their bond for the very first time. Ben could feel a small thrill race through him due to this fact.
"Anytime." Tommy chuckled in return.
"Careful there, pup, or I might just make this an everyday thing. I've got to tell you, it's one hell of a way to start the day."
"Fine by me." Tommy's tongue snaked out and licked up the side of Ben's sweaty neck before the man settled back and released a large breath.
"Rest, pup. You've had a very exciting twenty-four hours."
"Stay?"
"I'm not going anywhere." Ben ran his hands up and down Tommy's back, feeling his mate relax more and more with every second that passed. Soon Ben heard a little snore and knew, once more, his mate had succumbed to sleep. Ben closed his eyes and just rested for a time, content to hold his mate close.
Ben wasn't sure how long he had lain there beneath Tommy or what the time was exactly when he heard the muted sounds of his phone ringing. It took Ben a minute to realise the reason for the sound being so faint was the phone had to still be stuffed in the pocket of his jeans from the previous night.
Deciding he was far too comfortable where we was to move, Ben ignored the phone, which he never did. This became increasingly hard though after the fifth time in a row that the damn thing rang. Heaving a deep breath, Ben carefully manoeuvred Tommy until he was lying on the bed cuddled up to one of Ben's pillows. He watched as Tommy breathed in his scent and seemed to relax right before his eyes.
Ben reluctantly got out of bed and stalked across the room looking for where his jeans had ended up the night before. Finding them in a pile halfway across the room, he smiled when he remembered last night's frenzy to undress and claim his mate. Ben reached into the pocket of the jeans and retrieved his phone just as the damn thing started to make noise again.
He silenced it quickly and walked from the room so as not to wake Tommy up. Once the door was closed, Ben started downstairs. If he was going to be interrupted this early, he needed coffee. Ben looked at his phone and frowned when he realised that it was Liam who had been trying to call him.
Swiping his finger across the screen, Ben finally answered the call. "This had better bloody be an emergency," Ben's deep voice growled down the line. He was pissed as all hell that he had been interrupted while lying with his newly claimed mate.
Silence greeted his words for a moment before Liam rushed forward unperturbed. "I'm sorry, Ben, but please tell me you did not claim Tommy last night."
"Excuse me?" he shouted, anger boiling through him at his Beta. Who the hell did Liam think he was to question him? Ben could also admit that there was a little hurt mixed in his emotions as well since he thought the man his friend.
"Ben." Liam sighed. "I mean no disrespect, you know that."
"Do I?"
"You bloody well should."
Ben grunted. Liam was right, Ben should
