Mate Is Right, M/M Paranormal Gay Romance (Book 3) (Win an Alpha) Read online

Dylan tightened his grip on Gary’s wrists and claimed his mouth. Gary practically melted. It was a kiss of the toe-curling kind. Their tongues and teeth tangled, but eventually, Gary yielded, letting Dylan thrust his tongue down his throat. The heat and taste of Dylan flooded Gary. God. Dylan’s lips sealed against his felt so good, so delicious. Gary could sense the terrible hunger in Dylan’s wolf, but he wasn’t afraid. Whatever Dylan decided to give, Gary knew he’d be able to take it. He wanted to take it.

  Someone gasped, and Dylan pulled away. Seeing two Omegas by the door, Gary’s blush deepened.

  “Not fair,” one complained.

  “Why don’t you leave that boring pup behind, and have the two of us instead?” the red head suggested.

  Dylan moved in a blink of an eye, releasing Gary’s wrists and in seconds, had the red head by the throat. The red head gasped, legs kicking uselessly in the air.

  “If I ever hear you insult my chosen mate again, trash, I’ll fucking rip your throat out. Understood?”

  How Dylan delivered those words with such contained cold rage, Gary didn’t know. The red head rasped out a ‘yes’. Dylan released him and the Alpha’s words finally sunk in.

  Dylan called him his mate.

  Wait, was that right?

  Dylan was by his side again, holding out a hand to him. “Come on. Let’s get the hell out of here.”

  Hesitantly, Gary reached for Dylan’s fingers, marveling at how his slender fingers looked tiny compared to Dylan’s. This Alpha terrified and excited him in so many ways, but Gary wasn’t foolish enough to refuse Dylan. He came to the studio today, expecting he had no chance against the other Omega hopefuls. Gary had been ready to fight, to win, but it seemed Dylan made it easy for him.

  Gary gave Dylan’s fingers a squeeze and starting pulling him out. The other Omegas stared daggers at Gary, but what else was new? Dylan picked him and no one else. The Alpha must have seen something special in him.

  It felt odd, being the center of attention. All his life, Gary had never been noticed. He existed in the background, watching every eligible werewolf in his pack find their fated pair. Gary began to contemplate artificial insemination and care for his own pup by himself. Staring at Dylan’s broad back, it looked like he worried for nothing.

  He prayed to destiny, fate, God, or whoever was out there in the universe that Dylan Barlow wouldn’t end up breaking his heart.

  Chapter Three

  Dylan seemed to know his way around the studio. After several twists and turns, Gary blinked at the direct sunlight. Somehow, Dylan found his way to the parking lot and a black limo was waiting for them. Gary blinked. Did the show producers provide this too?

  Dylan led him to the limo. The driver, all dressed in an official-looking uniform, opened the door for them.

  “Did the studio do this too? Can we really ride this?” Gary asked, nervous. That got a sexy laugh from the Alpha.

  “Little Omega, you’re full of surprises. You don’t know who I am at all, don’t you?”

  Gary frowned. “Should I?”

  Dylan shook his head.

  “Did I disappoint you?” Gary asked, apprehensive. ‘Barlow’ did sound familiar, although he couldn’t remember where he heard it. Then his heart started to race as he recalled one conversation with his mother, who made it her life’s mission to teach Gary all the important werewolf family bloodlines. That made Dylan werewolf royalty. Gary sucked in a breath.

  “Wait, that Barlow family?”

  Dylan chuckled. “Don’t worry about it, pup. I’m not disappointed. In fact, I’m the opposite. You please me a great deal. Get in, unless you’ve changed your mind?”

  Gary shook his head and slid inside the limo, heart pounding. It was unexpectedly spacious inside and he noticed the wine chilling in a bucket along with tidbits on a tray.

  “Wow, are we celebrating something?” Gary asked once Dylan joined him.

  “In a way, we are.”

  Dylan pressed a button and the divider between the passenger carriage and the driver went up, providing them ultimate privacy. Despite the situation, that Gary was with a man he just met, he wasn’t afraid. Somehow, he felt safe with Dylan. The Alpha wouldn’t hurt him, Dylan knew. How he came to that conclusion, he didn’t have the foggiest clue yet, but he intended to find out where all this would lead.

  Stop focusing on the future, think of the present. Sound advice, because Gary had a hard time holding onto rational thought when Dylan was around. A good or bad sign?

  Gary rubbed at his hands. “This is all new to me. I mean, I’ve had boyfriends, but I’ve never really taken that final step in the bedroom.”

  Dylan’s eyes widened. The Alpha let out a low growl. Gary couldn’t tell if Dylan was pleased or unhappy about the news. Without warning, Dylan’s hands found Gary’s waist. Using his supernatural strength, Dylan hoisted Gary on his lap, so Gary straddled him. Gary swallowed, aware of the intensity in Dylan’s gaze.

  “How come?” Dylan asked, tone gentle.

  “Well, it’s embarrassing to say,” Gary admitted.

  “You’re in the safest place in the world, pup.” Dylan banded an arm around his back, making sure Gary wouldn’t fall off his lap. The Alpha began rubbing circles across his spine, calming Gary instantly.

  “It never felt right, but with you it’s different.”

  “How so?”

  “I’ve never felt this sense of rightness with anyone else before.”

  “I’m the same.” Dylan’s answer gave Gary the confidence he needed. The Alpha continued, “Isn’t this wonderful, pup? I’ll be the first one to breach that tight virgin ass hole of yours and the last.”

  “The last?” Gary whispered.

  “Don’t you feel it, Gary?” With his free hand, Dylan reached for Gary’s hand and made him feel his own beating heart. “Our wolves know. You’re rightfully mine, Omega. You’re the missing half I’ve been searching for my entire life.”

  “Oh, Alpha. I wish that’s true.”

  Dylan kissed his forehead. “I’ll just have to prove it to you. First, these clothes have to go.”

  With each piece of clothing stripped away, Gary felt more exposed. He’d never been comfortable with his slender body. All dominant wolves were big to him. Gary wore his designer clothes like an armor, but once Dylan looked at him with desire burning in his gaze, the Alpha made him feel wanted. Needed. Gary never felt that before.

  “So fucking sexy, baby.” Dylan nuzzled his neck. Gary froze when Dylan licked at the side of his neck, sharp canines grazing the skin lightly. “Look at those small nipples, that long hungry cock.”

  Gary’s cheeks turned red. He gasped when Dylan pinched his left nipple. Those fingers found his cock, giving his shaft a squeeze. Gary nearly came then, but he held back, seeing Dylan’s warning look.

  “Your orgasms are mine too, pup, just like this delectable body. Remember that.”

  “I will, Alpha.”

  “Good, we understand each other. Stay still while I examine my gift.”

  His gift?

  Gary had never been called that in his life, but today was the first of many, apparently. He squirmed, feeling Dylan’s strong fingers prying his ass cheeks slowly. When Dylan fingered his opening, Gary whimpered.

  “Oh, Alpha, not there. No one has touched me there before.”

  “We’re about to remedy that little fact, Omega. This body, this cock and this hole, now belongs to me, understood?”

  Gary shivered at those possessive words. How often did he dream of a powerful mate, capable of sending him to his knees? He loved every bit of Dylan, especially how natural commands came to him and Gary liked nothing more than to follow that firm and authoritative voice, also capable of kindness when needed.

  “Yes, Alpha.”

  “I want to hear you say it, pup.”

  “This…body, this cock and my ass,” Gary faltered, but managed to continue. “Every inch of me belongs to you, Alpha.”

  “You want to be ow
ned and loved, don’t you, little Omega? You’ve waited so long, but I’m here now.”

  Shuddering, Gary pressed his head against the curve of Dylan’s shoulder.

  How was it possible, Dylan knew the exact words to say?

  This was crazy, this entire day felt like someone else’s dream.

  How could Gary begin the day, hopeful yet deriding himself for joining a dating game show? Now, he was sitting on a powerful Alpha’s lap, practically begging to be ravished. What if Dylan ate him up and spat him back out?

  No, if Gary had to be really honest with himself, it was his own personal fears talking.

  Hadn’t Dylan demanded he stopped thinking of himself in terms of the negative?

  Where would Gary find another Alpha, who didn’t give a damn about his flaws and imperfections?

  Dylan wanted him bad and so did he, but why did trust come so hard to Gary?

  Well, it was about time Gary disposed of that old self. In with the new.

  “Alpha,” he whispered, not believing he was about to say the next three little words. “Make me yours.”

  * * * *

  God. Dylan had such a sweet little thing, such a tasty morsel on his lap.

  How did he ever get so lucky?

  Hearing Gary utter those words he longed to hear opened something inside him, the heart he kept locked away until the right man came along. He wanted to flip Gary on his hands and knees and take him right there and then, but Dylan controlled himself.

  The passionate rutting could come later. Gary required a little more delicacy and besides, Dylan wanted to enjoy tasting him.

  “Command me, Alpha. Tell me what to do. Please.”

  Jesus. Dylan’s dick was so hard and ready. It would be easy to breach Gary’s hole and hear the lovely cries of the Omega as he pleaded for more.

  Control yourself. You’re the Alpha here.

  Gary was making it hard though, simply sitting naked on his lap while Dylan remained clothed.

  “Since you begged so nicely, I’ll bite. Undo my tie and offer it to me,” Dylan ordered.

  Nodding, Gary worked his tie until the silken fabric was in his hands. The Omega handled it reverently, like a treasure. Christ. This would really be the ultimate test of his control.

  “What do you want me to do with that, pup?” Dylan asked.

  Gary bit, looking dead serious, as if he was terrified of failing a test that never existed in the first place. Dylan’s Omega clearly had trust issues, but Dylan was patient. He’d show his needy and insecure pup he meant every word. When Dylan announced they were mates, Gary hardly believed the words.

  The sexy Omega really thought Dylan did this kind of thing often.

  Gary hesitated. Dylan took over and began looping the fabric around Gary’s wrist. The silk blue tie looked amazing on Gary’s pale skin.

  “Tell me, pup, have you ever been bound by a five-thousand dollar tie?”

  Gary shivered. Dylan kissed him again, because he could and wanted to.

  “Look at you, like a present all for me.” Dylan began making a path of kisses down Gary’s throat. He took a nipple into his mouth, sucking until the bud hardened. Moving to the right one, Dylan bit down, loving the sound of Gary’s cry. Damn, but the Omega was so responsive it drove him up the wall. Learning Gary was a virgin was an unexpected plus. Dylan would make sure he was careful. He’d ease Gary into sex and once they overcame that barrier...God, he had plenty to teach the eager Omega. Dirty things. Perverse things.

  His Omega. Dylan couldn’t get enough of hearing those words.

  Dylan pulled his mouth away from Gary’s nipple, admiring his handiwork. “Perfect. How’s your little dick, baby?”

  He gave Gary’s prick a squeeze, making Gary groan. Props to the Omega for lasting this long.

  “I want you to touch yourself for me, Gary. Do it now.”

  Cheeks red, Gary used his bound hands to fondle his own cock. The sight made Dylan growl in approval. Such an erotic image to behold.

  Dylan began shrugging off his blazer and undoing the buttons of his shirt. Gary paused as Dylan began to unveil more skin. The look of appreciation on the Omega’s face when Dylan revealed his toned body made him smile.

  Gary was so easy to read, to please. They would have such a fucking wild ride together. Dylan couldn’t imagine anyone more perfect for him “Did I say you could stop, pup?”

  Gary shook his head and began pumping his dick again. The Omega blinked when Dylan pulled out his cell phone and began videotaping them.

  “W-what are you doing?”

  “This is for us to watch together later. I want to preserve our first moment together,” Dylan said.

  He put the phone to the side and kept the video rolling. To appease Gary, he gave the Omega a kiss and Gary seemed less nervous. Dylan took over, beginning to glide his hand up and down Gary’s dick. Gary looped his bound hands around Dylan’s neck, panting, meeting his gaze.

  “You like my hand on your dick, Omega?” Dylan asked, amused.

  “Very much, Alpha.”

  “You’ve been such a good boy. Beg me the privilege of coming.”

  “Please, Alpha!”

  “Such a compliant little firecracker.” Dylan swiped away Gary’s pre-cum and gave Gary’s tip a pinch. “Come for me then, Omega. Do it now.”

  With a cry, Gary came hard and fast, unloading his seed all over Dylan’s hand and spilling some over his ribs and abs. The sight of Gary coming undone did wonders to his own cock. Seeing Gary recovering and looking at the bulge in his trousers, Dylan grinned.

  “What to return me the favor, pup?”

  “Gladly, Alpha.”

  Chapter Four

  Dylan helped Gary to his knees, delighted when Gary leaned over and licked his cum off his skin. Such a good pup. Dylan thought he ought to reward him soon.

  “I haven’t done anything like this. Tell me if I’m doing something wrong,” Gary said.

  The Omega looked up at him with those amazingly sincere puppy brown eyes of his. God. Dylan could eat this pup right up. During his climb to the top of the business world, Dylan had done things he hadn’t been proud of. Calling himself a good man was a joke. He didn’t deserve such a sweet pup like Gary, but Dylan never backed away from a challenge.

  Besides, no man could walk away from his soul mate. That would be a crime.

  Gary wrapped his fingers at Dylan’s base and leaned forward. Taking command, Dylan threaded his fingers into Gary’s hair and nudged his prick between Gary’s lips. Gary’s pink tongue darted out to lick away the pre-cum on his tip.

  “That’s good. Swirl your tongue a little. Good. Go on, pup.”

  Gary’s curiosity and hunger to please made Dylan hard in seconds. Finally, Gary took his dick into his mouth. The Omega gagged at first, but soon got used to the size of him. With confidence, Gary bobbed his head up and down. The Omega looked like he thoroughly enjoyed sucking Dylan’s dick. What a refreshing change to see a lover who didn’t act like giving head was a chore.

  “Good, pup. I’m taking over now.”

  Nodding, Gary opened his mouth wider so Dylan could fuck his hole. Starting slow, Dylan picked up speed, imagining it was Gary’s virgin hole he was breaching. Christ. The image was so vivid in his head Gary knew he wouldn’t last long. With a growl, he came, about to pull his prick away, but Gary latched on, mouth sucking hard. Much to Dylan’s approval, the Omega took every last drop of his seed.

  Once done, Dylan pulled away. Gary sat back on his heels. The limo unexpectedly swerved to the side but Dylan caught Gary before he injured himself. The driver’s apologetic voice came through the speakers.

  “Are you hurt?” Dylan asked, sitting Gary back beside him.

  Gary shook his head.

  “We’ll continue this in my apartment.” Seeing Gary’s worried look, Dylan tugged him close and gave him a quick kiss. “Don’t worry, you did good, pup.”

  Relieved, Gary nodded. “That’s good to hear.”


  “Let’s get dressed,” Dylan suggested. Once dressed, he asked Gary a couple of personal questions, eager to know more about his mate. Judging from Gary’s story, he guessed the Omega had been overlooked for most of his life. If only Dylan met Gary earlier, he’d help disperse those useless fears.

  “You’re special, one hell of a guy, Gary. Don’t let anyone let you think differently. More importantly, you’re mine,” Dylan said firmly. “You don’t need to think about things like that anymore. You’re perfect the way you are.”

  Dylan swore he’d spend the rest of his life proving to Gary he was sexy and a man worth loving. The limo arrived in front of Dylan’s apartment building. The driver held the door open and Dylan offered a hand to Gary, who clasped his fingers, grip firm. Good.

  “Wow, you live here?” Gary looked impressed by the high-rise building.

  “One of my properties, but this is my favorite, the one I come home to,” Dylan explained.

  They walked inside the lobby. Dylan slotted his key card in the elevator, which would take them to the penthouse suite. With his perfect hair, clothes and excellent sense of style, Gary could fit right into Dylan’s world. Plus, it was endearing Gary didn’t seem to give a care about his wealth.

  The doors opened to the top floor, which only held a single unit—his, but Dylan wouldn’t mention to Gary his family owned the building. Dylan nodded to one of his personal bodyguards, who opened the front door for him.

  “Oh, I love the flooring,” Gary murmured.

  “Admire the tiles later. Are you hungry?”

  Hearing Gary’s stomach growl, Dylan smiled and nodded. “Me too. Takeout? Bartollini’s?”

  Gary looked relieved. “Oh good, you don’t mind pizza?”

  “Love them. Relax, Gary. I’m not going to bite.”

  Dylan fixed Gary a drink and gave him a tour of the apartment while they waited for the delivery. Gary seemed to relax around him and started to open up more. Well, they were a long way from getting to know each other, but this was a good start.

  Once the pizza arrived, they traded childhood stories and awful dates. Dylan realized what felt different about Gary. The Omega had a certain quality about him that made him easy to talk to and Dylan felt completely at ease with Gary, like he didn’t need to worry about Gary harboring ill will or calculating intentions. After pizza, they had dessert, practically decimating Dylan’s tub of cookies and cream.
