The Girl He Marked

Book 4 Chapter 45 (End)

'Your sister is here,' Lance calls from the hallway. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

I finish putting in my earrings and check my reflection. It's going to be a hot day today; I think we're

lucky enough to maybe hit thirty degrees (C). I smooth down my dress and nod in satisfaction.

After grabbing my handbag, I meet my mate in the hallway. I lock up my flat and we walk downstairs

and out of the building.

Orelia and Xavier are in their car, waiting for us. Lance and I get in the back, and we drive off.

It doesn't take too long for us to arrive at Xaden and Noelle's house. I've been coming here since I was

a child. The driveway is already filled with cars, so Orelia has to park on the road.

We grab the cakes that our mum, Rory, baked, from the boot and carry them into the house.

Auntie Noelle answers the door. She looks incredible with yellow, and orange braided into her hair.

'You made it!' She cries with a grin. 'Come in, guys. Goddess, it's so good to see you again. It's been

too long.'

We do all of the introductions in the hallway. We drop the cakes in the kitchen and carry on through to

the garden, where everyone else is.

Our parents, Rory and Lydia, are already in the garden. They're talking with Axel and Grace, my other

auntie and uncle, and Uncle Xaden, Auntie Noelle's mate.

The twins, Phoebe and Paige are already here with their mates. They are Noelle and Xaden's

daughters. We still laugh about how they both met their mates. They were both locked up in prison

cells when they first met them.

Phoebe had been locked up in the cells for trespassing on Oberon's territory because she got too

drunk. Paige was in heat and accidentally trespassed on an Alpha's territory. She was locked up in a

cell with her mate, Logan, whilst being in heat. I've heard it was quite the experience. Porn companies

would have paid millions for the footage, I imagine.

Needless to say, they're both heavily pregnant now. They will be having the first babies of our

generation, I can't wait. I'm sure children are on the cards for Lance and me in the future, but I think we

both want to be selfish and have some time alone together before we think about starting a family.

Axel and Grace's daughter, India, arrives with her mate, Sebastian and his son from his previous

relationship, Jake. I know that India had a bit of a tough time with Jake at the beginning, but from the

way they're all smiling now, I think things have improved drastically.

India's brother, Rian arrives next. He is with his mate, Adriana. Lance and I speak to them for a bit. I

never heard the full story of how they met.

The two lovebirds share an amused look.

'It's a funny story, really,' Adriana says. 'We crashed into each other at an intersection.'

'No one was hurt,' Rian adds quickly. 'But we had to wait a while for the breakdown company to come

and check the vehicles.'

'One thing led to another…and yeah,' Adriana says with a grin and a blush. 'Let's just say that car sex

is a lot of fun.'

Now it's Lance and I's turn to share a knowing look.

'Something tells me we're talking to people who already know that,' Rian comments, laughing loudly.

'Aren't you a police officer'

Lance smiles. 'Yes, I am.'

'Oh, my Goddess!' Adriana squeals. 'Have you two done it in the police car'

Our silence is an admission of guilt. Rian and Adriana burst out laughing.

'That's amazing!' She cries.

Suddenly, my mum, Lydia, appears next to us. 'What's amazing'

Adriana recovers quickly. 'Ines was just telling us about how Lance and she met.'

Lydia's eyebrows draw together. 'I thought your mother already told you the story'

'She did,' Adriana responds quickly. 'But, you know, you get more details when it comes straight from

the horse's mouth.'

I give her a deadpan look. 'Thanks, Adriana.'

She grins at me. 'No offense.'

We stay all afternoon in the garden, long after the sun has started to set. It's still light out and we sit out

on the garden furniture, talking endlessly and catching up.

Eventually, it gets late, and people start to leave. Lance and I help to clear up a bit and then take our

leave with my sister and her mate. At Lance's request, Orelia drops us off at his house instead of my

flat.

I'm confused when he asks me to get into his car with him instead of going inside.

'You're not hoping for round two of car sex, are you' I ask as I strap myself in.

He chuckles and starts the engine. 'No, baby. I just want to show you something, that's all.'

Intrigued, I let him drive me across a few streets. It's only about four minutes before he pulls up in front

of a beautiful, detached, two—story house.

'Do you like it' He asks, looking nervous.

I look at the house, illuminated by streetlamps.

'It's gorgeous. Why are you showing me it Does it belong to someone you know'

He waits until I turn to face him properly.

'I was hoping you would like it, so that I could go ahead and buy it,' he says anxiously.

The silence drags on between us and I stare at him in shock.

Buy a house For us

'You want to buy a house for us' I murmur.

He nods. 'I want to start our lives together, Ines. No pressure, no kids or anything like that yet. I want us

to live together.'

'What's wrong with your house'

'I want us to have somewhere that's our own. Somewhere that you can customize and decorate how

you like it. I know that, if you moved into my house, you would still always think of it as my house and

not ours.'

Happy tears fill my eyes.

'Sergeant Lance Owens, you are the most perfect man I have ever met.'

He grins at me.

'So, is that a yes'

'Yes, it's a yes!' I cry.

He hugs me across the console. When he pulls back, he grabs the back of my neck and kisses me.

'Am I allowed to take you home and fuck you, now'

'Yes, please,' I whisper back.

We get home in record time.

Lance sweeps me off my feet the moment he has the front door unlocked. He carries me upstairs, but

we don't make it as far as the bedroom.

We're too busy pawing at each other. He sets me down on my feet in the hallway. His hands go under

my dress and find my underwear. He pulls it down quickly and I step out of it.

My hands go to his trousers, getting them undone. Once they are round his ankles, he lifts my legs. I

jump up and wrap them around him. My arms go around his neck, holding on to him.

He lines himself up and fills me up in one thrust. We both gasp at the incredible feeling of our joined

bodies. He pins me to the wall, fucking me in long, smooth strokes.

I grab at his hair, pulling and tugging on it until he grunts in my ear. Our bodies rock against one

another, the pleasure taking over and making us more animalistic.

In the heat of everything, I start kissing his neck. I find my mark instantly and drag my tongue over it. A

shudder wracks through Lance's body and I do it again, desperate to feel him come apart.

Lance obviously wants to return the favor, because he drops his head and buries his face in my neck,

too. He sucks and nibbles on his bite, sending exquisite shivers of pleasure through my body.

At the peak of my climax, I sink my teeth into his neck, remarking him. Lance does the same with his

bite, remarking me. I think I almost blackout from the euphoria that crashes through me.

We grip onto each other tightly and I know that we'll never let go.

The End.
