Chapter 212
Erin’s POV
Our kisses grew more passionate, his hands roaming down to the small of my back as he pressed me against him. I could feel his hardness through his pants, pressing against my thigh. He shrugged off his suit jacket, never breaking contact with my lips.
When his hands found the zipper at the back of my dress, a moment of clarity cut through the haze of desire. I placed my hand over his, stopping him.
“I–I’ve never bonded with any wolf before, I admitted, my voice trembling slightly.
Derek’s hand froze. His eyebrows shot up in surprise, and he sat back, looking away as if to collect himself. His wolf, however, seemed to grow even more excited by this revelation, his eyes flashing brighter gold.
“You’re a virgin?” he asked, the question hanging heavy between us, his voice rougher than before.
I nodded, feeling suddenly vulnerable under his intense gaze. “Apart from Bradley, I’ve never been close to anyone. And I… I never let him
touch me like this.”
Something possessive and pleased flashed across his face before he controlled it.
Derek stood abruptly, straightening his clothes. “The celebration is over,” he announced, his voice controlled once more. “You can change and go to sleep. I’m going to take a shower. Don’t worry, I won’t disturb your sleep.”
I remained seated, staring at the birthday cake as Derek walked away. A breeze from the open window extinguished the candles, plunging the room into darkness broken only by the fairy lights. I already missed his touch, the scent of his wolf. My body still hummed with unfulfilled desire, aching for his touch. After a moment’s reflection, I made my decision. I should trust Derek, give myself to him as a birthday gift and soul mate.
With nervous determination, I made my way to the bedroom. Derek stood by the window, smoking a cigarette, the buttons of his shirt undone to reveal his muscular chest. Moonlight bathed his powerful form, highlighting the contours of his body. My eyes traced the defined muscles of his abdomen, and I felt a rush of heat between my legs.
“You can sleep peacefully,” he said, his voice calm though his eyes still flickered with gold. “I’m just going to shower to control my wolf.”
My gaze traced his every movement, drawn to him by the invisible but powerful bond between soul mates. As he turned toward the bathroom, I rushed forward, wrapping my arms around him from behind. The contact made our soul marks heat up instantly, and I pressed myself against his back, feeling the warmth of his skin through his shirt.
Derek stopped, his body tensing. “What’s happening?” he asked, his voice hoarse. “Do you know you’re challenging an Aha’s self–control? You’re playing with fire, little Omega.”
I swallowed hard and released my embrace. Derek turned to face me, his eyes now completely golden–his wolf fully present. I nervously bit my lower lip, unsure but determined. The bulge in his pants was unmistakable, and knowing I had this effect on him gave me a rush of confidence.
His hand came up to caress my cheek. “Why are you testing my patience and my wolf’s?” he asked, his voice a dangerous purr. “Do you know what we’ll do if you continue to present yourself to us like this? I’ll fuck you so hard you won’t be able to walk tomorrow.”
His crude words should have shocked me, but instead they sent a thrill through my body. Taking a deep breath, I met his gaze steadily. ‘I’m ready, I declared. “I’m ready to accept the soul mate bond between us.”
Derek pressed my back against the wall, capturing my lips in a hungry kiss. His wolf had completely taken over, his restraint abandoned. I could feel his hardness pressing against my stomach, and I moaned into his mouth.
“Are you sure?” he asked between kisses, his hands already roaming my body possessively. “Once we start, neither I nor my wolf will be able to stop. His eyes searched mine. “What changed your mind?”

“Y–yes,” I stammered, my breathing heavy. “I–I want to give myself to you as a birthday gift, to accept our soul connection.
The corner of Derek’s mouth lifted in a wolfish smile. “My wolf is very pleased with this decision. He’s been wanting to claim you time the first- moment we saw you.”
He unzipped my dress, letting it slide down my body to pool at my feet. Standing before him in only my purple lace underwear, I crossed my arms over my chest shyly. My soul mark glimmered faintly in the moonlight, and I could feel his eyes devouring every inch of my exposed skin.
