CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX.

BRINLEY.

After dinner with Kelsy and Ryder, I sent Delores off to bed. She looked worn out, so I told her I would clean up, and Kelsy offered to help. At the same time, Xander and Ryder stepped out into the backyard. I washed while Kelsy dried the dishes, her lips formed a thin line, and I knew she had something on her mind.

"Spit it out,”

A frown formed on Kelsy's face. "Why didn't you tell me? About the baby, I mean,”

"Because Xander and I aren't together. He is only pretending in front of dad, and he even told his brother Knox to say this baby is his." Kelsy gasped. "You're kidding?"

I shook my head, "I'm not going to lie to you. But please don't tell papa,”

"I wouldn't," She said, shaking her head, "But I can't believe it, though, how he looks at you. It's like he's in love,"

"Really? If he loved me, he wouldn't be pawning his child on his brother and raising a sluts baby," Kelsy nods, "True. And his brother is okay with all of this?"

Knox and Lucy both say they are okay with this, but I never really asked them because I'm still hoping Xander will change his mind. But, first, I need to talk to Knock and Lucy and find their true feelings.

I sigh, "Knox and his mate both claim to be okay with this," sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Wait," Kelsy says as she puts the last dish away.

"You mean to tell me that Xander's brother Knox has a mate? And Xander is okay with coming between them with this crap?”

I nod.

Kelsy shakes her head, "I can't believe that. What brother would want to cause problems like that,” I shrugged my shoulders because I didn't know the words to say. After all, Kelsy was right. I don't understand how Xander could want problems between Knox and Lucy. They have both been good to me, and it's wrong to do this.

"Xander says it's because he doesn't want our baby in this crap that his great grandfather made with the Mortaga kingdom. But, in reality? I think he is ashamed of me because I was a slave in his kingdom, and I'm only seventeen.”

"How old is he?" She asks.

"Twenty-Eight,”

"Oh, I see." Kelsy nods her head, "So, what's the plan?"

I arch my brow, "What do you mean, plan? I have no plans.”

Kelsy folds her arm across her chest, "So, you're just going to let your ex-best friend have him? Without a fight?"

"What should I do?"

Kelsy smiles, "That's easy.” She pauses, "Fight for him,"

I rose a brow, "How can I fight?" I motioned to my growing belly, "If you forgot, I'm pregnant. And so is Julia,” Kelsy shrugs, "Not actual fight. I mean, show him all of you. Make him want you the way you want him,"

"Ugh, I don't know how to make him fall for me."

Kelsy slaps my shoulder playfully, "You better learn if you don't want to lose him,"

Kelsy's right! I need to stand up and fight for what's mine. Xander might not like the idea, but I am his mate. Like it or not, that's how the goddess intended it.

"I don't want to lose him. But I can't force him either,”

Kelsy shakes her head, "Come on. Ryder just linked me to bring out some beers,"

"I see he is still lazy,"

Kelsy laughs, "Of course he is. But I love him anyway.”

Kelsy hands me a beer that I'm sure is for Xander—following behind her to the back yard I see him sitting on the chair beside Ryder.

"Here, Monkey," Kelsy tells Ryder as she hands him his drink and sits beside him. I give Xander his beer, and he mumbles a “Thank You." I make for the chair next to Xander, which is the only chair left when Xander wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me onto his lap.

I let out a shriek, and Kelsy and Ryder laugh at my expense.

Kelsy gives me a look, but I ignore her and stir uncomfortably.

I feel Xander's hot breath on my neck as his lips find my ear. A pleasurable shiver runs down my spine.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," He whispers.

My forehead creased as I met his darkened gaze. Xander's lip tilted upward in a smirk when he realized I was clueless.

He leans in again, "Sit still, or what comes up, you'll have to get down,”

My eyes widen, fully aware of that meant now. My heart was pounding against my chest. Why? Part of me was happy that I turned him on. I watched as his black eyes turned back into that bright silver that I love so much.

Ryder pops the cap on Xander's beer, and he brings the bottle slowly towards his lips as he tips his back, drinking half of the bottle in one go.

I chew on my bottom lip and avert my eyes to keep from staring at his gorgeous face.

"As I told Xander, you need to join us tomorrow when we play.”

"I'm not that into it," Xander tells Ryder.

"Into what?" Kelsy asks. "Football. I'm trying to get Xander to play, were a guy down." Ryder tells my sister, who nods.

"Yeah, I can't play. Rose takes all my attention,” She smiles at Ryder, who shakes his head.

"Yeah. Kelsy here,” Ryder says, kissing her cheek, "Is one of the best players we had,”

"You play?" I asked my sister, shocked that she even likes the sport. She nods, "Yeah. Did you think you were the only one who likes sports?"

I nod, "Yeah, I didn't think you would be into that stuff,” I say honestly.

"She's almost as good as you were, Brinley," Ryder teases Kelsy. I laugh at the face she gives him. If looks could kill, he'd be dead.

"You play football?" Xander asks.

I shake my head, "I used to, but Gabriel got upset that I was better than him and wouldn't let me play anymore,”

Xander looks at Ryder, "Is Gabriel playing tomorrow?" Ryder nods, "Yeah, he plays on the team we are playing against," He smiles at Xander, "Did you change your mind?"

"Depends," Xander tells him.

"on?"

"If my little mate here will be there cheering me on,”

"Brinley and I both will be there,” Kelsy tells Xander.

"Then count me in,"

Ryder's smile spreads across his face, "Awesome, man, I can't wait to see Gabriel cry like the bitch he is,"

"Are you sure about this? I mean, do you even know how to play?"

"It can’t be that hard," He says.

"It is if you don't know what you're doing,”

"You could teach me," He pauses, his hot breath tickling my ear, "I will warn you, I like to play rough,” He whispers against my ear and adjusts me on his lap, and I felt it. His hard-on pressing against my ass, my core tightens. I did this; I made him hard. He is hard for me.

My mind was racing around all the dirty thoughts that were flooding my mind, and I didn't expect what would happen next.

Xander pressed his lips to mine, and the chaos filling my head vanished in one sudden move that made me weak in the knees. Xander kissed me hungrily like he'd been deprived of food so long that he wasn't about to let go once he got a taste he had longed for. And I didn't want him to.

I wrap my arms around his thick muscular neck, pulling him greedily toward me, the bulge in Xander's jeans growing harder by the second. It wasn't until Ryder cleared his throat that I remembered we weren't alone. I pulled away from Xander and hid my face in his chest, too embarrassed to let them see my redden cheeks.

"Get a room," Ryder laughs.

"Oh, I plan to," Xander replies.

"We're going to head out. Try to get some sleep, man. We have a game to win tomorrow.” "Goodnight, Brinley,” Kelsy says. I sneak a peek at her and Ryder as they walk towards the patio door. Kelsy lets out a squeal as Ryder lifts her over his shoulder and spanks her ass.

"Ryder, what the hell?"

He spanks her again, "Don't move, or I'll tie you up and won't let you come,” Kelsy chuckles as they walk through, disappearing into the house. Once they were gone, I lifted my head and met Xander's gaze. His silver eyes swirled with a dark blue, almost black color.

Xander's eyes alone would make any girl drool.

Tingles shot up my back as Xander's finger stroked me softly. A strange feeling arose in my stomach. Xander stood to his feet, wrapping my legs around his waist in the mix as he walked into the house. A growl escaped his lips as I placed soft needy kisses on his neck. Xander stooped at the stopped at the top of the stairs.

"Which way?"

"To the left last door on your right,”

Xander started walking faster towards my old bedroom. I didn't want him to see it, where I spent most of my time ashamed of what I went through.

Xander opened the door, kicking it closed with his foot, not bothering to stop or let me down. Instead, he placed me down on the bed.

"Sit up,” He ordered. I did what Xander told me and sat up. He pulled off my shirt and unclasped my bra, freeing my small breast.

I always thought that you get bigger boobs if you are pregnant. But, in my case, I went from a lemon in size to an orange.

Sadly.

Xander pulled off my leggings, tossing them to the floor with my clothing. He grabs both of my thighs and pulls me to the end of the bed. Xander places both of my legs over his shoulder.

He inhales the smell of my arousal, and I don't know why seeing that turns me on more.

"You smell so fucking good," He says, running his tongue over my wet folds. "You taste even fucking better,"

Xander's words and the tiny fragment of pleasure nearly sent me over the edge.

Xander again swipes his tongue over my folds. "Say your mine," He says, sucking my clit into his mouth. I buck my hips in a tempt to get him not to move away.

"Say it,"

"Xander," His name rolled off my tongue in a pleading moan. I love Xander, and I will always be his, but he has made it clear that he doesn't love me and plans to do nothing about us being mates because of my stupid age. So I don't see a point in making this into something that will never be. Xander circles his tongue around my clit sucking and nibbling. Soft moans fill the room as he insults my pussy.

"I want to hear you say the words, little mate.”

*Lick*

"Or I'll keep bringing you to the edge,”

*Suck*

"And just before you spillover."

*Lick, suck*

"I'll stop,"

The pressure builds quickly, my knees trembling my body is ready for release.

Xander stops.

"Xander, please,”

"I want you to say that your mine,”

The build-up decreases when Xander buries his face back between my thighs.

Oh, goddess.

A moan escapes my lips, and I arch my back as the pressure builds back up in my core. I grabbed a handful of Xander's long hair and pulled him towards me, and I felt him smile against me.

"So, needy," He says as he pulls away.

"Say your mine, and I'll make you cum.”

My chest rose and fell hard.

"I'm yours. I always have been and always will be," I whispered breathlessly.

"Good girl. Little mate,”

Xander puts his head back between my thighs. My eyes roll to the back of my head, and I cry out pure pleasure.
