Mated to the Alpha: Sold to the King novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219: 0219

Jaxen POV

Just the thought of having her beneath me again was enough to make my cock harden painfully, something that hadn’t happened this intensely in months.

A low, primal growl rumbled in my chest as my mind wandered into places I had spent months forcing myself not to go, replaying all the dark, desperate things I wanted to do to her now.

Things I had deliberately held myself back from when we were together because, back then, I had stupidly believed she deserved my respect.

Clearly, I had been the fool.

She obviously hadn’t given a damn about respect when she was away. She had no problem opening her legs for only the Moon Goddess knew how many other men, so why the hell should I still care about showing her any restraint?

Honestly, if I was even willing to sleep with her again after everything she had done, she should consider herself lucky.

The thought alone made the corner of my mouth lift into a slow, cruel smirk.

Fuck.

My body was already reacting just from imagining Lorelei underneath me again, her body pinned beneath mine, and the thought of finally letting myself do all the things I had once forced myself to hold back from doing was driving me insane.

I wasn’t sure how much longer I could keep pretending I had the patience to wait.

I wanted her.

And maybe it was fucked up, but after everything, a part of me still felt like I had every right to take back what had once been mine.

"Jaxen?"

Callista’s frail voice suddenly cut through my thoughts, pulling me out of the fantasy before it could go any further. I blinked and looked at her, only to find her staring at me with those tear-stained eyes of hers, studying my face like she was trying to figure out exactly what had caused the sudden change in my expression.

"What are you thinking about?"

Fuck.

Seriously?

Why did she always have to do this?

Every single fucking time my mind wandered to Lorelei, Callista somehow found a way to drag me back to reality.

It didn’t matter what I was doing.

I could be masturbating while thinking about Lorelei, fucking another woman while Callista watched, buried deep inside Callista herself, or even just sitting there doing absolutely nothing when my thoughts happened to drift toward her.

Callista always interrupted.

Always.

And right now, after almost a fucking month without sex, it was getting more irritating than usual.

My body was already wound tight, my patience was practically nonexistent, and instead of helping with any of that, Callista had spent most of the past few weeks complaining about one inconvenience after another.

At first, I had actually found it cute.
