Cinderella's Billionaire Bear: A Shifter Fairy Tale (8 page)

But after kissing me
and saying good morning, he actually got up from the bed and said, "I'll
call down for room service before hopping into the shower. Then we'll eat and
go out to buy you some new clothes."

He was being the
perfect gentleman like I had requested, yet I wanted nothing more than to pull
him back into bed and kiss every hard inch of his glorious body before riding
him all fast and furious.

I almost did it, too,
but he walked out of the bedroom before I got the chance to act. I guessed it
was a good thing since having sex with him right now would make it even harder
for me to think straight about everything else. Still, I needed to relieve some
of my sexual frustration. Luckily for me, the suite had two full bathrooms. So
while he was showering in one bathroom, I decided to get inside the other one
to take care of the ache between my legs.

Chapter 8

Charming

Being a bear shifter
meant I could hear even the faintest of sounds. So when Cinderella was in the
shower in the other bathroom, I couldn't help but hear the sound of her soft,
lustful moans. She was no doubt pleasuring herself while in the shower, and the
thought of it had me harder than ever.

I wanted to surprise
her in the shower and fuck her against the shower wall. However, I had promised
her last night that I wouldn't have sex with her again until she has had more
time to think about our relationship and everything else going on in her life. So
I fought my primal urge to go mate with her and stroked myself off in the
shower instead.

Afterward, I met her in
the dining room of the hotel suite to have breakfast together before taking her
out for a shopping spree.

Cinderella

Charming took me to the
nicest designer shops in town. He had me try on a bunch of different outfits at
each store we went to and bought everything he thought looked good on me
without bothering to ever look at the price tags.

I had a great time
being incredibly spoiled by him. He never looked bored as I tried on one item
after another, which was a huge contrast to some of the men I saw yawning and messing
around with their cell phones while their girlfriends were busy trying on
clothes.

The woman in the
fitting room next to mine looked at me with obvious envy in her eyes. I smiled
at her and felt myself bursting with pride.

After our shopping
spree had ended, Charming and I walked back to his car to place the bags of
clothes inside. Then he asked me if I wanted to share an ice cream cone from
the nearby ice cream shop, and I agreed since it was hard to turn down ice
cream on a warm day like today.

We held hands as we
walked together from the parking lot to the ice cream shop. I was thinking
about how nice it was to spend the day out with him like this, when suddenly,
Charming let go of my hand and forcefully pushed me away.

I fell to the ground in
an instant. Meanwhile, next to me, Charming had been run over by a speeding
car. I rushed to him right away to see if he was okay.

There was blood on his
body, but he was still able to breathe. I tried to get him to talk to me, but
he remained silent even as I continuously called his name. So I dialed 911 and
waited for the ambulance to come.

I rode with him to the
hospital, and my hands shook the entire way. I was afraid of losing him. In
fact, I had never been more scared of anything in my entire life. Even when the
men had abducted me and tied me to a chair yesterday, I still wasn't as scared
as I was feeling now.

It was then that I
realized how much he meant to me. I was in love with him. And the sad irony was
that now that I finally knew it, I might no longer have the chance to let him
know how I felt.

I sat in the hospital's
waiting room, anxiously awaiting for the doctors and other medical personnel to
save him. After hours had passed, a doctor finally came out to see me. Unable
to read the expression on his face, I began to worry.

"Miss Cinderella,
you're here with Mr. Moore, correct?"

"Yes, is he
alright?"

"He had slipped
into a coma earlier. And considering the condition he was in when he first got
here, I honestly didn't think he was going to make it. Yet miraculously, he had
since woken up and seem well on his way to recovery," said the doctor.

My heart sang with joy
upon hearing the news. "He's okay? Can I see him?" I excitedly asked.

"Yes, I was just
about to tell you that he specifically asked to see you, Miss Cinderella."

"Please take me to
him now."

"Yes, of course.
Please follow me this way."

I followed behind the
doctor as he led the way into a medical exam room. Charming was lying there, hooked
up to all sorts of monitors and medical devices. Upon seeing me, his face
immediately lit up.

"Cinderella, I'm
so happy to see that you're okay."

"Of course, I'm
okay. You're the one that had me all worried." I was in awe of the wonderful
man in front of me. He had pushed me out of harm's way and risked his own life
to save mine. Then upon waking up from his coma, all he could think about was
whether or not I was okay. Tears blurred my vision as I thought about it all.

The doctor left the
room then to give us privacy.

Once it was just the
two of us in the room, Charming said, "You had nothing to worry about. I'm
a bear shifter; it's extremely hard to kill me. I heal really fast, and I'm
able to sustain what would often be considered lethal injuries for regular
humans."

"Even so, it's
hard not to worry when you were totally unconscious earlier. I thought I had
lost you, Charming. It was the darkest moment in my entire life."

"Well, I'm
conscious now, and I'll do my best to never make you worry again." He
squeezed my hand and smiled at me.

"Whoever it was
that tried to ran us over, do you think they'll come back for us again?"

"Well, they won't
have much time to try," said Charming. "I saw the guy's face right
before he ran me over. And before you came in here, I had already told the cops
the guy's name. So he'll definitely be spending plenty of time in prison."

"You actually know
his name?"

"Yeah, it's Gavin.
He's one of the bear shifters I fought when I came to rescue you
yesterday."

"So you think he
did it on my stepmother's orders again?"

"Yeah, probably.
It's either her or the Beast. But when I called the Beast earlier to confront
him, he claimed to have nothing to do with it. And he even offered to bring
Gavin to the cops himself. The Beast sounded really mad about how Gavin, one of
his most trusted men, had taken money and orders from someone else. So I
believe in this case he's actually telling the truth."

"Wait a minute.
You spent time talking to the cops and the Beast before letting me come in here
to see you? Have you any idea how worried I was sitting out there waiting to
hear how you were doing?"

"I'm sorry,
Cinderella. Believe me, I wanted to see you the moment I regained
consciousness. However, as your mate, I needed to make sure that you were safe
first. So I did what I had to do." He smiled warmly at me, and there was
no way I could even pretend to be mad at him after that.

"You know,
Charming, there's something I really must tell you now that you're conscious
again."

"Oh yeah? And
what's that?" he asked.

"Earlier, when I
thought I had lost you forever, I felt sadder than I had ever felt in my entire
life. It was then that I knew I was actually in love with you, too. So even
though, I'm not a shifter like you, I do believe I'm fated to be with you for life."

"Oh, Cinderella,
you have no idea how happy I am to hear you say that. I was willing to wait for
however long it took for you to agree to be my mate for life. But now is
definitely better than later."

"So where do we go
from here?" I asked.

"Well, first of
all, I'm going to have the doctor discharge me from the hospital as soon as
possible because I absolutely hate being in here."

"But don't you
need more time to recover? You've only regained consciousness a while
ago."

"Like I said
earlier, it doesn't take long for a shifter like me to heal. So yeah, I'm
pretty much fully recovered."

 I took a good look at
Charming, and it was then that I realized, he was already looking so much
better in the short amount of time I had been in here. In fact, had it not been
for all the machines still hooked up to him, I wouldn't have even known he had
been hit by a car just hours ago.

"Are you sure it
isn't best for you to stay here for them to at least monitor you for a while
longer?" I asked, just to be sure.

"Nah, I'm good.
Besides, it can be dangerous for me to hang around in a hospital. Medical
personnel might get suspicious about how I'm able to heal so fast. And the last
thing I want is for some curious doctor to figure out that I'm a shifter. So
anyway, back to what I was saying earlier. Let's get out of here soon. Then
we'll go back to the hotel suite together. My bear and I have been dying to
mate with you again."

Despite wanting the
same, I couldn't help but blush at his words.

He soon noticed and
said, "I'm sorry if I'm being a little too straightforward. It's just that
your scent, your curves, and everything else about you drive me absolutely mad
with lust all the time."

I smiled and said,
"It's okay, I feel the same way, too. Being around you has a way of landing
my mind in the gutter."

"Then let's call
for the doctor and get out of here," he said with a devilish grin.

Charming

We were riding the
elevator up to my hotel suite back at the casino. My arms were around Cinderella's
waist and my tongue inside her mouth. It took every ounce of self-control in my
body to refrain from ripping off her clothes and mating with her right in the
elevator.

As soon as the elevator
doors opened to the top floor, I grabbed her hand and nearly ran down the
hallway to the entrance of my hotel suite.  I fumbled with the key to open the
door. Then once I got us both inside, I carried her into the bedroom and
plopped her down on the bed.

I clawed off her
clothes as fast as I could. Meanwhile, she was helping me out of my clothes.
Once we were both completely naked, I crawled between her legs to taste the
sweet honey pot that was all mine.

But Cinderella had an
even better idea. She got me to lie down on my back. Then she got on top of me
in the 69 position.

She licked and sucked
me off while I did the same to her. Fucking delicious was the only way to
describe the way she tasted right then and there. Her mouth on my erection was
nothing short of amazing. But I didn't want to blow my load this way, so I
withdrew from her mouth as soon as she had cum.

Then I had her on all
fours. I entered her from behind and soon had her squealing as I fucked her
again and again.

My bear was close to
the surface, and it was growling as I fucked her into the mattress.  Then as I
got closer and closer to cumming, I sunk my teeth into her shoulder,
effectively marking her as my own. She moaned in response, and I came deep
inside her womb.

Afterward, I cuddled
with her on the bed as I told her how she was now forever marked with my scent.

She smiled and said,
"That's so primal and fucking sexy. Now is there a way for me to mark you
as mine?"

"Yes, there is
actually."

"Really?" she
asked with interest in her eyes. "Do I just bite into your shoulder,
too?"

"No, all you have
to do to claim me as yours forever is agree to be my wife."

"Are you just
saying or seriously asking?"

"Of course, I'm
serious, Cinderella. You should know by now how serious I am about you. But
hold on a minute. Let me at least get up and try to do this the right
way."

Cinderella

Charming got up from
the bed and quickly threw on his boxers. Then he walked to the closet and
grabbed something from inside. He hid something behind him as he headed back
towards the bed.

I sat up on the bed to
see what he was up to. Then I smiled from ear to ear as he got down on one
knee.

"Cinderella, I
knew from the moment I saw you at my friend's wedding that I wanted nothing
more than to have my own wedding with you one day. A wonderful woman like you
deserve to have the most spectacular engagement ring on your finger. But since
I didn't get the chance to properly prepare for this proposal, please accept
this bedazzled shoe as a token of my love instead. And please make me the
happiest bear shifter alive by saying you'll marry me and be my mate for life,"
he said as he presented to me the shoe I had left behind when running to catch
the limo in New York.

I nodded my head as
tears of joy streamed down my face. "Yes, Charming, I can't wait to be
yours for life." Charming kissed me as soon as he heard my answer. After
our kiss ended, I asked, "But how? How did you even end up with my missing
shoe?"

"I found it when I
went looking for you the morning after we first hooked up. I had been meaning
to give it back to you but didn't get a chance until now. I'd love to see you
wear it on our wedding day."

"Oh, but the other
shoe is still at the house."

"Don't worry about
it, Cinderella. I'll send someone to fetch it for you."

I smiled and thought
about how I could certainly get used to a lifetime of him constantly there to
take care of me day in and day out.
