The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate

He got up from the bed and planted another kiss on her shoulder where one of the kiss marks showed. His voice was husky when she wrapped his arms around her waist. "Don't worry about this. They don't care."

He understood her concern and immediately alleviated her worries. She must be troubled by the thought that the pack members would look at her weirdly because of the obvious signs of sex on her body.

Lycans were not humans who lived with a lot of pretenses. They were not prudish when it came to sex as they understood it was part of their nature. It was needed for procreation and the sustainability of their race. They treated sex like breathing and eating, a natural part of life.

"They don't?" Sophie needed to confirm this.

She had never heard anyone having sex in the castle before. If they made noises like she did last night, surely anyone having sex in this vicinity would be heard, and she would be aware of it. Yet,  she had never heard any of the pack members do it.

She didn't know that the lycans in the castle wanted to give face to their Alpha by not openly showing that they had sex while he didn't. Even if they had sex with their partners, they would do it discreetly.

Leland could guess what Sophie had in mind. So, he pulled a chair to sit and put her down on his lap and he explained to her a little bit about his tribe.

His voice was soothing when he spoke. "Female lycans usually only go into heat twice a year. Other than those times, they don't really attract the opposite sex for mating. That's how we can focus on our mission, not swayed by other unnecessary things."

"Ohh..." Sophie was surprised by this information. So, lycans considered sex for pleasure as an unnecessary thing? Did Leland also think that way? Was their amazing sex last night something that would only happen twice a year?

The man moved his hands from her waist and cupped her breasts, slowly kneading them gently, effectively shutting down her assumption earlier.

Leland cleared his throat. "We take procreation seriously and during the mating season, you can witness how we celebrate our bodies and sex to the fullest. That's when lycans usually can't hold back. We are loud and savage."

Sophie swallowed. She couldn't help but imagine the scene. Had her husband ever had sex with another female, during the mating season where he said, with his own words, that lycans couldn't hold back?

"I usually would go somewhere around that time," Leland immediately added to make Sophie understand that he didn't fuck just any female lycans in heat during the mating season. "It's too much of a distraction."

Sophie didn't want to pry into his past sexual adventures because whatever he did with his life before they got married was none of her business. She also thought it would only pain her to know the truth.

Leland was not a virgin like Nicholas when they first have sex. She could tell that Nicholas' first time was with her because he needed a bit of time to get over the awkwardness in the beginning.

However, after they consummated their marriage, he was quick to learn her sensual spots and how to pleasure her.

With Leland, it was all great from the beginning. He seemed very confident and knew what he was doing. Their consummation last night was proof of his experience and capabilities.

She wondered how many women had seen her husband naked and enjoyed being fucked by him.

So, hearing him explaining that he usually didn't participate in the mating season rituals gave her some relief she didn't know she needed.

'You must not feel jealous of the women in his past,' Sophie chided herself. 'You even have children with another man. You are the last person on earth who could feel jealous toward him.'

"You are more human than lycan, so you don't seem to follow other female Lycan's estrus cycle," Leland continued his words. "which is good because I am also not like most lycans who associate sex only for procreation."

"Ahh..." Sophie's face instantly flushed red. Her question was immediately answered. It seemed, their amazing sex would happen more frequently than she originally thought.

"My mother is half human and half lycan. I believe, only humans do sex for pleasure and that's the only good thing I receive from her," Lycan said flatly.

Whenever he had to mention his mother, he couldn't help but feel an unexplainable coldness. His mother was cold and that was another thing that he took after her.

"Oh.. so, your mother is like me?" Sophie turned around and looked at Leland attentively. This was the first time she heard the man talk about his mother.

"No, she is nothing like you, but she did pass on a little human gene to me," Leland replied. "I love mating with you, and not only for procreation. If you will have me in your bed every night, you will see what I mean."

Sophie couldn't believe her eyes when she saw Leland grin. He never did that. Before this, the best she could get was a smile. The grin was so rare that she could tell he was now in an extremely good mood.

"Uhm... about that," she muttered shyly. "Maybe we should share a chamber from now on?"

Since they were now truly husband and wife, no longer in name, shouldn't they start sleeping together and stay in the same bedroom?

The man nodded happily. "Yes, we should."

"Then..." Sophie cast her glance around the room. "Where should we stay? My chamber or yours?"

Leland stopped kneading her breasts. He felt his lower body had become so firm and he was aroused again.

Ahh... so dumb. He shouldn't have done it if he knew he wouldn't be able to fuck her this morning. Sophie already washed up and was prepared to get dressed and start her day.
