Nothing but bliss filled his mind, and suddenly, Caleb exploded, surprising himself. His orgasm slammed into him and Caleb screamed his Master’s name as he soared.
He felt his body lifted into the air, floating. Strong arms held him against a hard chest and he was moving. Something cool brushed against his skin from shoulder to foot, but the clouds kept swirling, making him feel free, like he was a bird flying on the breeze.

Ridge had never been happier, or more satisfied in his life, than he was in this moment. His mate had done beautifully and had given himself over to his dominance completely, allowing Ridge to do whatever he wanted to his body.
He would never do anything to harm his mate, and there were plenty of lines he would never cross in their play. He had no desire for certain things, but what they just shared was one of the most beautiful moments of his life, and definitely the most special.
Even though Caleb hadn’t seen Jag, Mason, TJ, and Blu enter the dungeon behind them, he was sure his mate knew they were there, watching every moment. He not only fulfilled some of Caleb’s fantasies, but also took care of both of their needs for him to dominate, and for Caleb to submit in front of the pack.
Ridge would never do anything like he just had with his mate in front of the whole pack, but in front of his inner circle was another thing. They all needed to see him claiming Caleb publicly, just as much as his and Caleb’s wolves needed it. It was ingrained in all of them and Ridge was sure there would come a time when he would claim Caleb in front of others of the pack, but not like this. They didn’t need to know all aspects of their relationship. But to have the ones closest to him, his inner pack, witness what just happened, would ease all their wolves and make them now feel secure with his and Caleb’s mating, and would also give others, who completely believed in them, a voice to calm any fears of them being true mates, or their love and devotion to one another.
Ridge laid Caleb down on the large bed and stretched out beside him, then pulled the blankets over them and held his mate tight, as he whispered against his hair, “You are mine and I am yours, mate. I belong to you just as much as you belong to me. You are my life, Caleb. My heart and soul. You are my everything and I love you more than I have ever loved anyone else in my life.”
“I love you too, Ridge,” Caleb mumbled.
Ridge smiled knowing that even while lost in his subspace, Caleb could hear him and tell him how much he loved him.
“Thank you for trusting in me to take care of all your needs and for taking care of mine. Everything that I am belongs to you. You own me, my love.” Ridge tightened his hold on his man and closed his eyes.
Even though he meant every word he said from his soul, he also said them for another reason. His friends still remained in the room, waiting quietly, and he wanted then to hear his confessions to his mate. He wanted them to know that Caleb was the Master of him as well.
He heard feet shuffling softly, then the light click of the door as it closed behind the men and he smiled. His pack knew it was time to leave them alone, so that he could care for his submissive. Aftercare was more important to him than the actual act of dominance. His submissive needed to know that the gift he willingly gave of his trust and submission, was appreciated, honored, and respected. And to Ridge, he loved it, because it allowed him to show a softer side of himself that only his mate would ever know.
“Did they enjoy the show?” Caleb whispered against his chest, and Ridge smiled.
“Immensely, my love. You were so perfect and stunning in your submission. I am in awe of you.”
Caleb pulled back slightly and gave him a cute smile. Ridge smiled from the look of bliss on his mate’s face. “Thank you for giving me another of my fantasies, mate. It was amazing. And thank you for claiming me in front of those who mean the most to you. My wolf was getting a little nervous wondering if you didn’t accept him, and that’s why you hadn’t claimed us in front of the pack yet,” Caleb confessed.
Ridge raised his hand and brushed a strand of Caleb’s hair from his forehead. “I know, mate, and I’m sorry it took us so long to do that. My wolf was riding me hard too. Now we can all rest easy and enjoy our life knowing they have witnessed, not only my dominance on you and your submission to me, but our love and devotion to each other. Thank you for coming into my life, Caleb. I love you.”
Caleb smiled again and leaned in, giving him a soft kiss, then pulled back and cuddled in his arms. “Thank you for waiting twenty-five years for me to catch up, for never giving up on our mating while you waited, and for wanting me when the time came. Thank you for loving me and for being you, Ridge. I love you too, with all my heart.”
Ridge tightened his hold on Caleb and released a contented sigh. He finally felt complete and whole for the first time in his life and it was all thanks to the amazing man in his arms.
He felt Caleb’s lips move into a smile against his chest right before his mate said, “And I love my new piercings. Maybe we can do more in the future.”
Ridge chuckled then kissed the top of his head. “I could always get a Prince Albert or a Jacob’s ladder,” he said teasingly, but the whimper that came from his mate, told Ridge it was something they might need to look into. Damn, they really were made for each other.
