when Skys are grey

In every way part 1

*smut warning*

Sky's POV
1 month later

It still seemed impossible that just over a month ago my life changed entirely. I met my mate who loved me unconditionally. He saved me from my captures and showed me what life could be like with a real family.

I'd been shy and reserved at first, not really knowing my true self or who I was, but in just the past few weeks, Steve helped me open up and find myself.

I was fun and carefree and while still a little timid and shy, I was free to just be me. To just have the ability to express myself without worry of being hurt.

Especially with Steve.

He was so encouraging and patient. Even when it came to my knowledge of things. I really didn't know a lot and when I felt embarrassed that Peter knew more elementary wise then I did, Steve was right there to let me know it was okay.

He was so gentle with me too. His kisses were soft and loving, full of this excitement I knew he was bursting with, but he never pushed me to go further, content with what we had physically while our love grew spiritually and mentally.

I'd started sleeping in his room though, finding it easier to deal with the nightmares when he was holding me close. He helped them go away and stay away, giving me some of the best night's sleep I've ever had in his warm embrace.

Waking up with him was even better. Watching the sun shine on his face as his eyes flickered open, giving me a sleepy smile before kissing my head mumbling a "good morning."

It was my heaven. My sanctuary. My peace.

That's how we are now. Laying in bed and just taking advantage of the quiet morning. His arms wrapped around me as I nuzzled my face into his neck, breathing in his scent deeply.

His voice was still slightly groggy as he spoke, making me smile more as he asked if I slept well. I always did with him and just smiled. "I slept great. Not a single nightmare."

He hummed happily in response, running a hand up and down my back soothingly. He placed tender kisses to my head then my cheek as I moved my head back to look at him.

I just sighed out happily before leaning in and kissing him deeply, feeling his arm tighten around me slightly, sharing his warmth as he kissed back.

It was sweet and soft, but soon enough it started to become more as I pushed myself closer to Steve's body, not able to help myself from the excitement that flooded through me.

Steve deepened the kiss even more, licking my bottom lip as he gently rolled us till he was above me. I gasped softly, not expecting it, but not wanting to stop either.

He'd never done that before, but in a way it felt so natural.

He continued to kiss and lick at my lips till timidly, I opened my mouth, letting him slip his tongue inside. It was warm and kinda odd, but it added something else entirely to the heat that was spreading between us.

I made a soft noise as my body shuddered then pulled away, feeling my cheeks heat up as I panted out, looking up at Steve curiously and nervously.

He just smiled kindly, stroking my cheek with the back of his hand. "You are stunning, Sky. So beautiful." He kissed my nose and I giggled, moving my hands around his neck.

I still wasn't ever sure what to say when he complimented me like that, but I was slowly learning that he always ment it. To him I really was beautiful.

He just smiled at me, watching me with so much love in his eyes before sitting up onto his knees and pulling me up with him, moving my legs around his waist so I was in his lap.

I gasped in surprise then giggled again, still holding onto him as he moved his hands to my waist and kissed me again. This time starting off deep and heated.

It felt electric as I found myself pressing my body further into his, suddenly wishing neither of us had shirts on so I could feel his skin against mine. Feel that level of intimacy I'd been hesitant about before.

As if my hands had a mind of their own, I started to tug at his shirt, slowly pulling it up his chest as he continued to kiss me, his own hands moving under my shirt, heating up my skin.

His fingers were warm as they moved my shirt up further, stopping at my ribs and just rubbing soft circles there as I broke the kiss to catch my breath, practically grinning at him.

Without hesitation, he pulled his shirt off, tossing it off to the side before stroking my cheek again and tucking some hair behind my ear, silently asking me if I was sure about this.

I bit my lip, but nodded, moving to pull my shirt off and tossing it in the same direction as his. The air around me was suddenly cool and I shivered, moving my arms up over my chest as I blushed deeply.

I knew my body wasn't as curvy as other women. I was rather small and petite and honestly wasn't sure if he'd want to continue once he saw how small my chest really was.

I looked down, biting my lip again and just hugging myself, covering my boobs and hardened nipples. That too was an odd sensation, making my cheeks burn almost uncomfortably.

Steve gently placed his hands on my arms, gingerly pulling them away from my body. "You don't have to cover yourself or be shy. You are so beautiful and so perfect. My perfect mate."

He kissed my forehead then my nose, making a smile pull at my lips as I looked up at him again, sucking in a nervous breath before relaxing my arms so he could move them away fully.

He smiled lovingly as his hands soothed up my back, pulling me back into him, flush against his chest and causing my breath to hitch.

Where our skin touched I felt so alive, letting out another low throaty noise as I wrapped my arms around him.

He tucked his face into my neck, placing kisses along my skin there and up to my ear. My mouth gaped open and I tangled a hand in his hair, gasping out his name in an almost breathless whisper.

He continued to litter kisses along my jaw and then to the other side of my neck as my chest pressed into his, rubbing against his slightly sweaty skin.

This was like nothing I ever experienced before. What I thought were heavenly kisses before were nothing compared to this. I never wanted him to stop and pouted a little when he pulled away.

He chuckled at my face, pecking my lips before sighing happily. "I love you. I love this and I love being with you like this, but I don't want to push you and I'm worried I won't be able to hold back if we don't stop now."

He still held me close as he spoke, giving me a reassuring smile as he thumbed at my bottom lip gently, pulling a sharp gasp from my mouth as I realized what he ment.

He'd proven over and over again that he loved me with everything he was and I knew I loved him with all I had and I knew this was just another step in our relationship.

A step I'm fully ready to take.

I moved a hand up to his cheek, nodding slowly as I returned his smile. "Then don't hold back, Steve. I love you too and I want this. I do. You're my mate. My alpha. I want you to have all of me."

My voice came out almost in a whisper at the end, but I meant every single word. I was done waiting. I was done taking my time. I was ready.

Steve's eyes widened slightly as he held my gaze, breathing in a sharp breath. "Are you sure?" He laid me back against the bed, tracing my features with his fingers.

I nodded again, smiling widely as I cupped his cheek and pulled him down into another kiss. This time I licked his lips before sliding my tongue into his mouth.

He had my trust and my heart fully. Now he'd have my body too. I knew I wouldn't regret this. I loved him and this was the perfect way of showing that.

He was bringing down every wall I had. Every barrier. I didn't want anything keeping us apart any longer. I wanted to be his in every way possible. I wanted to love him in every way possible too.
