Hidden Away

Ch 27 Marked

Jesse's POV

"Wait, wait, wait, wait... she marked you?! You told me that people do that when people mate but you said nothing happened last nig-"

"Snowflake, calm down," Colten said in soothing voice, grabbing both sides of my face.

I went to speak again but he cut me off again. "No, breathe...."

"Who says I want smell your stupid sawdusty smell right now anyway?" I asked.

"Really? Sawdust? That's what does it for you, Snowflake?" He quipped.

"Shut it, Vanilla Bean." I shot back.

He gave me a gorgeous smile, "Don't forget my apple pie. I like my a la mode."

I couldn't help but laugh. Colten leaned in and gave me a quick peck on the lips.

"Nothing else happened last night. I didn't leave anything out. Markings normally happen during the mating process because it is said to be a very pleasurable act. It doesn't have to happen during mating though." Colten explains.

He still is holding me close and I nod my understanding. "Why is it still bleeding though?"

"My guess is because it's not finished. It's not an injury, it's a mating mark. She bit me as I was pushing her off of me. The bite has to be deep enough to show a mark and then be sealed by your saliva." He answered.

"So, the only way for it to stop bleeding is for Journey, or myself, to finish it?" I ask.

"You. Not Journey. She crossed a line and knows it. Look, there's no pressure. I'm not worried about. I'll be fine." Colten said.

"Can you explain to me what it means to mark someone? Please? I've only ever heard about if from Journey and since she pulled this stunt, I want to make sure I have my facts straight." I ask.

Colten sits down cross legged and pulls me to him. I sit in his lap facing him, wrapping my arms and legs around him. "Comfy?" He asks, wiggling his eyebrows.

He begins, "When mates mark each other, for one, it lets all other wolves know they are taken. But, for each other, it ties them together in many ways, I can feel what your feeling, you can feel what I am feeling, I can find you faster, we can mind link each other, our bond of wanting to be around each, touching each other, it intensifies... we get stronger together. Everything between us is so much more."

"Wait... I could feel your pain last night. This is why?" I asked.

He nodded his head yes.

"Mind link? What is that?" I ask.

"Well, wolves can't talk, so, they can mind link or use telepathy, like how you speak with Journey. It's how I communicate with my pack as a whole, or individuals. Because the marking isn't complete, we can not mind link, yet. If you had a pack, you could mind link them, but only your pack. When you come back with me, you will join my pack, then that will open up to you."

"Do you want to mark me?" I ask him.

"I do. I've been looking for my mate for awhile now. But I will wait until I know you are ready and want it as much as do." He answered.

"Are you angry that you are marked?" I ask.

"No, I'm only upset that Journey took something from you. From us. Mainly the way she went about it." He answered again.

"I want to finish it." I said looking into his eyes.

"Wha-, no, Jesse, I don't want you to rush into this." He responded.

"Hey, look at me, look at my eyes, it's 100% me. I don't feel rushed. It never felt right with any one else so I never did anything, I always stopped it. But it feels right with you. You're my mate, I do know that. I know I was raised human but I was always different and always having to be careful so this is nothing new. You're going to have to trust me, too. Besides, we are not rushing into anything, it's not like your getting laid." I said with a smile.

He chuckled. "Are you sure?"

I nodded my head.
"P.S. It's Snowflake Mr." I reminded him.

He takes my chin in his hand and smiles his gorgeous, radiant smile. "I'm sorry, Snowflake." He said as he kisses my nose.

I fisted my hand into his hair and took his mouth. I gently bit his bottom lip and sucked it between my lips rewarding me with a moan. His tongue licked my top lip while I held his hostage for a moment longer. I smiled as his hands started roaming down my backside. When I released a moan for him, he surprised me by taking my mouth. His lips were soft even as he over powered mine. My heart was beating faster, and needing air, I broke the kiss. Panting, I kissed his jaw line knowing where I needed to go next. I nibbled and tugged on his earlobe before slowly making my way down to Colten's neck.

"Snowflake?" Colten called me.

"Mmm?" I answered.

"Let me see your eyes." He requested.

I stopped everything and took his face in my hands, "It's me, Colten, it's still Snowflake." I promised him. "How can you tell it's me or wolf if my eyes change when I am aroused anyway?" I ask.

"They are different, both dark, but they are still noticeably different." He said and then he crashed his lips to mine once more saying everything he couldn't put into words last night. I loved the way his hand felt on my face when he was holding me. I love the way he needed me. I love the way he loved me. I held him closer to me, not wanting to let go, not wanting any separation between us. He growled and leaned forward making me fall backward, but never breaking the kiss. I was now on my back and he was top of me, I was still wrapped around him. I wanted him.

I rolled him over and he brought me with him so now I straddled him. His hands were on my hips and they were doing their thing. I broke the kiss and looked him in the eyes, panting, chest heavy, his chest matching mine. He knew it was me. I grew my canines and he offered me his neck. "I don't know how hard to bite." I panted and back off a little. "I don't know really know what to do."

He looked back at me and smirked, "For now, just keep doing what you were doing." His right hand left my grinding hip and went down to the hem of my t-shirt. It then disappeared under the shirt and I felt his hand go into my underwear. I couldn't keep the moan from escaping my lips. He slipped his finger right between my folds and went right to clit. "You're already so wet for me Snowflake." Colten whispered in my ear.

I was lost to the pleasures of this gorgeous man. Electrifying sparks were flying through my lips and spreading throughout as I made contact with the skin on his neck, kissing and sucking him. The sensation of grinding against his rather larger member and his hand was going to do me in quick. The same tightness that he had built up in the lagoon was building up again and my breathing was ragged. "That's right, Snowflake, cum for me." He whispered. His hot breath on my neck was like fire to gasoline. His hand on my hip went to my breast. He cupped and squeezed it sending more sensations throughout my body. I was almost there, I was so close. I was moaning Colten's name and just hanging there on the edge. Colten pinched my swollen clit sending me over the edge screaming Colten's name. Shock waves went flying through me and I sank my teeth into Colten's neck, causing him to growl. I laid there on his chest, panting while flying high in my one little world.

When my breathing slowed, I licked his mark, sealing it, but also noticing that it had an effect on Colten, making him twitch a little. "What's wrong?" I ask.

"Not a thing, Snowflake." He said with a huge smile. "It's just now, every time you touch my mark, I feel pleasure."

Wow, I couldn't help but think, I can't wait for him to mark me.

"Me too, Snowflake. Me too." Colten said with a megawatt smile.

"Wait. What?" I said with a horrified expression.

We can mind link now, Snowflake. You thought that out loud. Colten's voice pops in my head while he has the biggest grin on his face and bursts out laughing.
