The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate

"Do you miss your father?" Sophie decided to ask. She knew Isolde was abusive toward her husband and Leland had cut ties with her years ago. She didn't know how was Leland's relationship with his father, Alpha Leon.

The man shook her head. There was no expression on his face when he replied. Leland was indifferent when it came to his other parent. Alpha Leon was really tough on him because, in his mind, being the next Alpha, Leland should be tough and capable.

Leland had some respect for his father to some degree, but he couldn't love him. He had never missed his father to this day.

"I am sorry about your parents," Sophie said with a low voice. She looked at Leland lovingly, thinking this man had a good heart that even though he had such lousy parents, he still could be a good father for their children.

Leland didn't say anything, so they would stop talking about the topic he hated, his family. He rubbed Sophie's hair and gave her a look that signed 'you promised to sleep'.

Sophie cleared her throat. She was still not sleepy. However, she had promised to sleep after Leland answered her questions.

"Uhm... I really like our conversation," she said. "Can we do this every night?"

Leland was horrified by that request. However, he didn't have the heart to say no. So, he didn't say anything.

This made his mate understand that he was not into this idea. Sophie sighed at his silence. She realized she shouldn't force her will.

"Sorry, I just really like hearing those stories, told by you, in your soothing voice," she gave him her best puppy eyes. "I think our child likes it too. I feel so calm and happy now."

Leland looked at her in disbelief. "You do?"

She nodded sheepishly. "Yes."

Leland thought about it for a while, before he finally nodded. "Very well."

Sophie's eyes widened when she heard his response. He was being really accommodating to her wishes, even though she could see that it was hard for him. She realized Leland tried hard to show his appreciation after what happened tonight by going out of his way to please her.

Leland couldn't fulfill Sophie's request to back down and leave Nicholas and the Hannenberghs alone, because, to him, it was a matter of principle. However, just working extra hard to get rid of his discomfort and dig deep into his memories to share stories she asked of him was doable.

"Have I told you that I love you?" Sophie suddenly asked. The man's ears turned red at that simple question. She had often told him how much she loved him, so his answer should be yes.

"Today?" he unconsciously pursed his lips and muttered, "not yet."

Sophie chuckled and wanted to roll her eyes, but she held back. The woman cupped his face and looked straight into his eyes. "I love you."

Leland finally smiled and replied, "I love you too."

He touched her hands on his cheeks and lowered them. Then, he tilted his face to kiss her lips. Sophie closed her eyes and enjoyed the meeting of their lips. She didn't know why their kiss that night felt especially good.

Maybe it was because they had not been intimate for the whole week after their 'argument' last week? Didn't people say makeup sex was the best sex? Sophie could never compare because before last week, they never had any such argument or dispute. And their sex life was already great as is.

His lips were especially soft tonight and there was something about his scent that made Sophie feel so mesmerized.

Wait...

Was this maybe... her pregnancy hormones kicking?

She returned his kiss, even more passionately than what he did. Her response made the man feel pleasantly surprised. He assumed it was his reward for telling her the stories she wanted.

The kiss became heated. Soon, they started panting for breath. Sophie moved back a little to get air, and so did Leland. Once they could regulate their breaths, both Leland and Sophie went back to kissing.

"Maybe we should... uhm.... do something to... ahem... make me tired and..." Sophie spoke sheepishly. "So I can... sleep."

She touched his exposed chest and traced his skin down to his hard stomach. Her other hand was naughtily sliding down to his manhood.

Sophie didn't understand why she was suddenly so coquettish. She was surprised by her own boldness. Leland was too. However, he was pleasantly surprised and again thought it was his reward for making her happy with his stories.

Perhaps, he could work extra hard to find something else to share tomorrow night?

He started to like this thing. Maybe they could make it their nightly routine. He did need to learn to communicate better. This would work in his favor. He could work on his communication skills, make his mate happy, and be rewarded handsomely.

Sophie giggled when Leland lowered his kisses to her neck, her collarbone, and after his hands lowered her dress from her shoulder, he rested his lips on her left breast and took in a mouthful.

He sucked and licked her beautiful mound while he moved his hands lower and slipped from under her dress and caressed he inner thighs. When Sophie moaned, the man smiled and moved and pressed on her body, slowly working on her sensual spots.

They had not been intimate for maybe ten days. The last time was several days before the royal party and after that, there was the incident where Leland was injured after fighting with Nicholas, followed by Sophie wanting some space so that she could think.

He missed their intimacy. They had not even celebrated her pregnancy properly by making sweet sweet love.

"Ahh... Leland..." Sophie moaned incessantly, trying to focus on her hands on his pants, trying to help him remove them, but her mind was a mess. She started complaining. "Why is it so hard to..."

Sophie halted her words, Leland rose from pressing her body and removed his shirt and pants quickly. Then, he helped her off of her dress.

Now, they were both naked.

"What is so hard?" he asked her teasingly with his deep soothing voice that she loved.

Sophie gulped. He had placed her hands on his engorged, really hard, manhood.
