Page 30 of Galaxy Between Us

Marching through the halls with determination, I burst through my office door and Ari startles, standing quickly from the sofa. With wide eyes, he opens his mouth to say something, but I silence him by closing in with a passionate kiss, surprising even myself. He tenses at first while I hold his head in place, but he doesn’t pull away. Instead, he melts into it with a moan that makes my chest rumble in delight.

Delicate hands wrap around my neck as I consume his lips, prioritizing kissing over my need to breathe. Ari’s mouth on mine feels incredible. Like this is what I’ve been missing my whole life. All my anger dissipates with his body pressed against mine. His hands grab at my clothes, shedding my jacket and letting it fall to the floor with a gentle swoosh.

My hands reach for his silky vest, and we go back and forth, stripping fabrics from one another between kisses until we’re mostly naked.

The sweetest scent to ever reach my nose permeates the air when his pants come off, making my dick throb and ache. I feel Ari shiver as the scent in the room thickens, driving my Alpha side wild. With a soft grunt, small hands shove my chest until I’m seated on a couch and Ari climbs onto my lap to straddle me, acting on instincts.

The way he prowls has me slack jawed in awe. Watching him move, I squeeze the base of my cock hard so that I don’t embarrass myself by shooting a load all over his smooth thighs. His eyes sparkle as they stare into mine, our breaths ragged and beastly, mingling together in the inches of space between us.

He lowers himself slowly, slicking up my cock between his wet cheeks, never glancing away for a second. It feels so right, giving me full-body shivers as I place my hands on his hips, lost in a trance of him lifting up and down. When I can’t take the teasing anymore, I grip him tightly and line up with his puckering hole.

“This…is this weird?” Ari whispers, feeling my girth beg for entry below.

“Not unless you think so,” I lean forward and place a quick kiss on his lips. “It’s only natural, isn’t it, Omega?” I smirk, trying to ease his discomfort.

We’ve been friends for so long, I guess we never imagined we could be anything more. Are we something more?

Ari sinks down onto my length, making me lose all thoughts. His body happily invites the first few inches of my cock inside as mother nature intended, and we both moan in tandem.

“I guess so, Alpha,” he replies sheepishly.

My cock twitches in his tight hole and I feel my brain being taken over by primal instinct. This is entirely our bodies making decisions for us while our minds take the back burner. No more dancing around our feelings and emotions. The heart wants what the heart wants.

“I wanted to kiss you…” the confession rolls out of me as if the brakes gave out. “At our spot by the telescopes. I don’t know if you remember, but I was going to meet you there and finally lean in to take these lips and make them mine…at least, that’s what I had fantasized I’d have the confidence to do.”

Balancing his hands on my shoulders, Ari begins riding me at a steady pace while listening, taking his time gliding up and down on my cock. It feels so fucking good that the pleasure creates orgasmic tidal waves across my entire body.

“I remember, Knox,” he mutters against my mouth, the taste of my wine from the gala now mixed into his breath. “I think I like kissing you in your top-floor executive office better…we made it so much farther than I could’ve dreamed.”

Brimming with satisfaction, I watch him get drunk on our lovemaking, his sweet little panting sounds morphing into a whimpering mess. His dick pulses, sliding against my abs as he rides me while never breaking eye-contact. Reaching between us, I grab him and stroke, making him jerk with a hiss. Bringing so much pleasure to my Omega fulfills every void within me.

The friction is enough to make him erupt fast, arching his back and biting his lip as a climax crashes through him. The noises he makes tip me over the edge and I burst deep inside him with a drawn-out groan, shuddering beneath his weight.

Damn, that didn’t last long. His mouth falls open with moans that I kiss away as his grinding hips slowly wind down. Our bodies are sweaty and sticky as we twitch through the aftershocks and catch our breaths. It was fast and desperate, not nearly enough, but I think it’s what we both needed right now.

“I should’ve come back to you…” he whispers the confession.

“You did.” I kiss his worries away. “That’s all that matters now.”

Ari slouches against me, tucking his face into my neck. As I stroke his hair tenderly, reveling in his mature Omega scent, I’m already imagining doing this again and again. And again. After everything with the telescope, I can admit that I understand his choice eight years ago to enjoy his independence instead of watching me live all his dreams for the both of us.

It’s the very thing that divided us before BOW camp.

But he’s here now. Back in my life by the grace of the universe. For that, I should be grateful.

Over the next few days, we fall into the same scandalous habit. Ari comes up to my office, we pretend to converse about work, and then I fuck him on every surface. It’s not right. It’s not allowed. I could get fired. But I’m on a high that no drug could ever replicate.

My brain has been completely rewired to think of nothing else but Arius. His body, his moans, his face. Oh, gosh, his face when he cums is nothing short of fantastical. The epitome of ultimate pleasure. I need to continue exploring his body as much as I need to breathe.

He just looks so good bent over my desk, pressed up against my bookshelf, and riding me on the sofa. I’m thinking of pinning him down on the rug by the fireplace tonight. Bending his compliant body anyway that I please. Fuck, I need it.

I’m staring blankly at my monitor screen when my office door opens. Blood immediately flows South, anticipating Ari for our fantastical endeavors. Instead, it’s Jaimie who strolls in with a cleaning cart. My anticipation dies out like a flame.

“Good evening, Mr. Beckett.”

“Hey, come on in,” I greet him casually, standing up to get out of his way. “My desk needs the most attention today. I’ve been a little off this week,” I admit, strolling over to the beverage counter.

“Yeah? If you’re still stressed about the presentation, don’t be. You did amazing.” Jaimie sounds surprisingly sweet for once.
