Chapter 236: “He said...”
“Caleb?” Ashton asked after a whole minute had passed. Honestly speaking, before he pulled the whole speech he was very nervous. Unsure even if he should pop the question. Now that cat was out of the bag he didn’t know what else to do until Caleb gave him an answer.
Caleb’s eyes were still fixated on the ring and he was so still that Ashton could tell Caleb had even stopped breathing. It was as if Caleb completely shut down. “FYI, You can say no” Ashton cleared his throat nervously.
“No” Caleb mumbled but then quickly mumbled, “I am not saying no to you, I am saying, no, I don’t want to say No. I mean I am not saying Yes, but I am also not saying No. I am not even sure what I am saying at this point” Caleb rambled on and breathed to take a minute. “Are you sure?” He asked Ashton reluctantly.
“Wouldn’t have asked you if I weren’t. I love you a lot, and I would love to marry you” mumbled Ashton. “If you will like the same”. He added.
“Yes”! Caleb mumbled. “Yess, I will marry you. Of course I will” before Ashton could even give him the ring Caleb jumped on him and kissed him aggressively. In the excitement Ashton almost dropped the ring, but nevertheless, he kissed his mate back. “I love you so much Ashton Parker” Caleb mumbled between kisses.
When Caleb’s excitement finally settled down a bit, Ashton popped the ring again. Taking his mate’s hand he put it on which fit him perfectly. “How did you know my ring size?” Caleb asked with a chuckle.
“I had help” Ashton chuckled as well, recalling his encounter with Christian earlier that day...

Christian was busy arranging stuff in his office when he heard a knock. “Can I come in?”
“Sure” he allowed when he noticed it was Ashton. “What can I do for you?”
“You don’t...happen to know...”Ashton hesitated.
“Yeah?” Christian raised his brows, intrigued
“Caleb’s ring size do you?” Ashton murmured. A human sure would have missed it, but luckily Christian was a werewolf.
Christian’s eyes widened whilst Ashton’s cheeks turned hotter by the second, “You’re gonna propose” Christian smiled. Unable to form any words Ashton simply nodded. The giant smile on Christian’s face was a confirmation that he approved which brought Ashton great relief. “Well... I never measured his size, but..” Christian opened one of his drawers, “This is an old ring of his. He asked me to get it fixed, but I forgot” Christian shook his head at himself.
“Thanks” Still blushing, Ashton nodded and left.
Ashton’s smile deepened at the recall. Caleb who happened to witness it in his head smiled as well. “So that’s what happened.” He chuckled. “Wait.. this happened earlier today right.... when did you get time to get it sized”?
“I actually didn’t.” Ashton clarified. “This ring belonged to my Dad, adopted Dad I mean. It was already the same size” shrugged Ashton. “Neat huh”? He chuckled.
Caleb who couldn’t stop smiling and staring at his mate planted another kiss on Ashton’s lips. Ashton kissed him back with equal enthusiasm and soon their passionate kiss turned into a heated one. Within the kisses, they let out soft moans which rang in their ears. It’s been a long time since they felt this way, passionate, loved... and so alive.

When after a long time they couldn’t breathe anymore, they pulled away trying to catch their breaths, “Wanna go inside”? In between his breaths Ashton proposed. Caleb let out a smirk before he got up and got inside. Ashton followed the same suit and soon they were back in their own room. As soon as Ashton stepped into his room, he was showered with hot and heavy kisses once more making him almost trip, but thanks to the door behind him, he didn’t.
They changed angles as Caleb held his mate’s face in position, while Ashton’s hand wandered off to the skin below his mate’s shirt. He traced the margin of those rock hard abs until his fingers hit something else. Pulling away he frowned. “This scar”? He whispered as he traced it with his fingers.
“It’s a long story” Caleb mumbled, “Let’s just say I got it while trying to escape”
“Escape what”? Mumbled Ashton.
“Mutiny”? Caleb mumbled. “Remember I told you about Warren and Karolyn. During their mutiny I escaped with Connor back then, but it wasn’t that easy... in the turmoil, I got this scar” Caleb mumbled, stealing a glance at the big shiny cicatrix. “This was actually done by a Vampire” He agreed.
“I am so sorry you had to go through with it all alone” Ashton whispered.

In their heated moment, Ashton pushed his mate gently before both of them fell into the bed. Ashton showered his mate’s body full of kisses and soon they were both shirtless. Ashton made sure to appreciate every inch of his mate’s body available to him.
Tracing his abs Ashton reached Caleb’s crotch and rubbed gently over the covered member until Caleb became a moaning mess. These moans were like music to Ashton’s ears. It’s been eight years since he heard them and it only encouraged him to continue.
“I can’t..”! Caleb cried out, at this point even impossible to breathe properly. His body missed Ashton’s and Ashton’s touch was definitely driving him crazy, “Just hurry up”! Caleb let out a frustrated growl.
Ashton smirked at his mate’s eagerness and pulled down both of their pants in a manner of a few seconds. Pushing Caleb’s leg upwards, Ashton positioned himself. Before he entered, he made sure he prepped his mate properly as to not hurt him more than he already had.
As Ashton’s fingers worked magic on Caleb’s entrance, Caleb threw his head crying out in pleasure, letting out a deep throated moan. The stimulus was so intense that Caleb ended up coming just with fingers.
Ashton crawled up and kissed Caleb softly on the lips and his cheeks comforting him as Caleb came back from the high. “Do I go in”? Ashton asked. He would be really frustrated if Caleb said no, but he wanted to make sure.
Unable to form any words, Caleb simply let out a nod. Getting all the motivation he Ashton pushed himself in slowly, allowing Caleb to adjust to his size. Caleb’s whole body shivered as pleasure overtook his body. “I’ll start to move” Ashton declared and started to move.
Caleb who just came a while ago seemed to be on the verge of coming again. He let out his uninhibited moans which were absorbed by the walls of the room while their sheets were drenched in their sweet and cum.
Ashton continued to work his way up I increased his pace with every push and soon enough he was practically ramming into Caleb. Caleb didn’t mind though, all he wanted at this point was for his mate to move faster.
“I love you Caleb Wrisberg” declared Ashton, and after a few pushes he came inside Caleb. Caleb too came once more staining both of their abs.
“Thank You, for coming back to me” in high, Caleb mumbled.
“Thank you, for never giving up on me” Ashton replied back and planted a soft kiss on his mate’s lips before he pulled himself out. After the evening they had neither of them had any energy or will to move so they stayed back in the bed cuddling till the late night.
