The Girl He Marked

Chapter 17

My mum is on the grill whilst Dad sets the table, I grab some plates and help him so that Mum can't

complain I'm not doing anything.

'Don't worry, she's invited other people as well, you just have to socialize, she'll drop this subject as

soon as you find someone to take,' Dad tells me and I bitterly wish that I could take Rixon.

I conveniently head back inside to prepare more food when the guests start to arrive, I hope my mum

hasn't told them why she's invited them today. I'm only alone for a few minutes before she comes

inside.

'Lexi! Go outside and say hello to our guests,' she scolds, and I roll my eyes at her.

'Have you told them why you invited them'

'No of course not, I just said it was a friendly get—together, your friends Aria and Lucia are out there,'

she says, and I decided it might not be so bad after all.

I sit with my girls and chat politely to the four guys my mother has invited; they all seem sweet enough,

but I have absolutely no interest in them. All of them are about half the size of Rixon, I don't think I can

ever be with another man again after having him inside of me. He's ruined me for all other men, and I

don't care.

'Do you think Jasper would mind coming to a ball with me' I ask Aria about her gay best friend.

'Um no, he loves that kind of thing, why' She asks curiously, I've only met Jasper a couple of times.

'My mum is trying to force me to take someone, and I can't be arsed to deal with that right now, so I

need a safe date who won't grope me,' I explain, and she laughs.

'Yeah, I think Jasper would be up for it,' she replies, now I've just got to run the idea past Rixon.

I can see my Mum sending me signals to talk more to the guys, so I ignore her, collect the dirty dishes

and head into the kitchen to wash up. I slip on the washing—up gloves and get to work on the plates. I

hear the back door go and I groan.

'Mum seriously, just let it—' I jump as two large hands squeeze my waist and I relax as Rixon's

intoxicating smell fills my nose.

'I'm definitely not your Mum,' he whispers huskily in my ear and kisses down my jaw to my neck.

'What are you doing here' I breathe, anxiously glancing out the window at the table full of my friends,

parents and guests on the lawn.

'I couldn't wait until this evening,' he says, he reaches down and tugs on my dress, 'I like this though,

reminds me of the one you wore in that bathroom,' he comments, dragging the dress up to reveal my

ass.

'Stop that, everyone is outside,' I gesture, and he glances over my shoulder and frowns.

'What's with all the lads' He asks and I bite my lip, wondering whether to say anything. He notices my

hesitation and his eyes darken.

'Explain,' he growls, and I swallow hard.

'My mum has invited them because she wants me to find a date for this ball my parents host each

year,' I tell him, and his hands tighten painfully on my hips.

'Fuck that, I'll be your date,' he snarls, his eyes flashing with annoyance as I smile sadly.

'You can't baby, they can't know about you yet,' I say softly, and he looks at me with disappointment.

'Look, we'll discuss this later okay' I tell him, jumping when his fingers slip aside my thong and push

inside me.

'Fine, we'll discuss it later, but right now, I think you need reminding who you belong to,' he mutters

gruffly, and I close my eyes in anticipation as he replaces his fingers with his cock.

'We can't do this here,' I moan quietly as he pushes inside of me, beginning to move in and out as I

lean slightly over the sink. I grip the counter as he drives into me from behind, my eyes nervously

watching everyone outside in case one of them decides to come in.

'Yes we can, just don't be too loud,' he teases, nipping at my neck with his teeth. I know he wants to

mark me, but he can't, not yet.

I reassure myself that if any of them looked over they couldn't see anything because of the sun's glare

on the windows.

I bite down hard on my lower lip to keep myself from moaning, but Rixon is obviously displeased by my

silence and squeezes my boobs, his fingers teasing my nipples. I gasp loudly as he increases his pace,

I feel myself getting close and clench around him.

'Come for me, baby,' he whispers in my ear, and it's my undoing as I pulse around him. I pant heavily

as I come down from my high, he pulls out of me and fixes my dress. I glance up and a sick feeling

pierces my stomach as I see my mum heading towards the house.

'Quick! Go!' I shove Rixon towards the corridor.

'Go out the front door,' I tell him, he pecks my lips, winks and disappears down the hall. I rush to the

cupboard under the sink and grab some surface cleaner. I hurriedly spray it all over the counters, so

the room smells of disinfectant and not Rixon and sex. Mum enters seconds later and turns up her

nose at the clinical smell.

'Why are you cleaning' She asks as I wipe down the counter.

'I spilled something, sorry I'll be out in a minute,' I give her a quick smile and she nods, satisfied. We

grab the dessert plates and bring them outside to the table. I sit down between Aria and Lucia and

notice that I don't even feel guilty about hiding Rixon from them. I enjoy being with him too much to

want to jeopardize things by telling everyone about him. They'll want me to reject him and deciding

between my mate or my friends and family is not a decision I want to make right now.
