His other hand rolled down her thigh with a purpose. He shifted his weight as he fisted a handful of material, dragging it back up her thigh and over her hips, before his hand reached around her backside and palmed the full cheek of her backside, massaging it beneath his fingers and drawing her hips up as he pressed and rolled his arousal over her nub.
“Tell me you need me…” He growled against her breast and Jasmine was lost in the feel of him against her, around her. His hard muscled body was making her insane beyond anything she had ever felt before. He pressed her close, but not close enough. He suckled her breast hard, but not hard enough. There was ache inside her that demanded to be eased, and only the stroke of him within her would accomplish that.
“I want…” She breathed out and heard his gentle growl over her breast. The rumble of his deep tone sent shivers through her body and when his fingers released her backside and ran over her hip and down her groin, she knew she couldn’t stop the ache, the need, the desire within her for him, and she didn’t want to try.
“I need you woman, you could want any man, but you need me.” He growled out as his fingers slipped under the lace of her panties and over her curls, until he found the moist heat of her folds, and she arched into his touch. Done with one breast he moved to the other, devouring her with his mouth as his fingers sought to bring her fully to life beneath him.
His beast was anxious within him, its feral nature, mixed with his own carnal desire to know his mate intimately, only held back by a tenuous thread. He wanted her to submit to him so completely that there could be no misunderstanding between them, no going back from this very moment. She had to recognise the need within her for him, not just the desire to have him, and he wouldn’t settle for anything less.
His fingers found the swollen nub and he took it slowly, rolling wide circles with a touch too light to bring her the satisfaction her body was craving, but touch enough that her legs fell away from around him and she opened herself wide for his touch, submitting to his will, allowing him access to her sex as her hips begged for more.
Wade sucked hard against her breast, pulling back his head and elongating her sensitive nipple, until she arched as far from the bed as her back could get. The moan of pleasure escaped her lips and he released it, licking over her nipple and up her body, until he breathed against her ear.
“Need.”
Jasmine went to reach for him, but he was gone. He climbed down her body until his shoulders were nestled between her thighs. His large hands spread her wide, before he snagged the thin lace and tore it apart, exposing her sex to his gaze, as he scented her arousal and growled with his own need to taste her.
Opening her sex with his thumbs, he flattened his tongue against the tight hole of her backside and travelled upwards, in one long hard press that made her muscles convulse with the pure pleasure his touch brought to her.
His name came out as a moan on her lips, and he gloried in the taste of her on his tongue. And what his tongue could do, wickedly tasting and teasing her with every stroke, with every swirl over her nub, before rimming her wet needy channel and probing inside. He growled when her inner muscles clenched around him, flicking hard and fast over the sensitive nerves of her opening, before releasing her to devour her folds.
Jasmine squirmed beneath him when he began the slide of his fingers into her channel, relieving her desire to feel him there and renewing her need to feel something more, his shaft within her, filling her, stretching her around him. His touch was driving her wild with a fever that she knew wouldn’t be sated with anything less than all of him. He could release her with his mouth and his fingers, but it wouldn’t be enough.
“Wade…” She was going to go insane without him. The frustration was clawing at her, and she fisted the covers beneath her until her knuckles were white. “I need you.” She felt him release her, the instant relief from the divine torture he was giving her allowed her to draw one full complete breath, and she opened her eyes to see him dispose of his jeans, his arousal so thick and hard, as her eyes travelled down his glorious body to rest on his evident desire for her, and then she saw only his dark eyes, as he crawled up over her body.
He reached for her hands, still fisted into the covers and released them. Bringing them up with him as he loomed above her, looking every inch the predator she knew him to be. He nestled between her thighs and pushed her hands up on the bed. Pinning her beneath him with his hands and his hips as he rested against her, the tip of his arousal just nudging her sex, his dark gaze fixed on hers.
“Tell me again, my love. Tell me you need me.” He growled lovingly against her lips.
“I need you.” Jasmine breathed, running her feet up either side of his thighs. The feel of the course hair covering his legs another sensation to add to the many.
Wade lifted his hips and pressed into her. The silken head of his desire pushed inside, easing her muscles aside and stretching the satin walls of her channel around him, until she didn’t think she could stretch any further for his entry.
Gently pulling back to the very edge of her opening, he eased back into her, taking her further, stretching her wider, until she moaned with how full she felt. Jasmine closed her eyes and pushed her head back into the pillows, a breath of denial on her lips at taking any more of his girth.
Wade eased back out, lacing their fingers together, he brushed his lips over hers, and growled his desire. “Look at me, Jasmine…” He urged her as he eased back into her, and she tossed her head, tensing slightly when he was almost at the point where she felt so full. “Open your eyes and look at me, love.” He commanded and she complied. Her lashes fluttered open and her green passion filled eyes gazed up into the black desire of his, as he pulled slowly back and then eased into her again.
“Relax and let me love you. You were made for me.” The deep soothing tone of his voice, and the touch of his lips, made the tension within her ease away, her body opening to him, allowing him to stretch her walls just the slightest bit more he needed to be seated to the hilt within her.
The press of his silken tip against her womb made her ache for his seed and she pushed her hips up against his as he slowly rolled his hips, teasing her body to accept his thickness, as her muscles clenched involuntarily around him, a gentle throb of awareness from her body as it welcomed him.
“You’re… large.” She breathed, as he rested inside her, letting her body get used to his size, and he couldn’t help but grin down at her, his male ego on display.
“I’m an alpha, we’re made to be snug, it’s so our female can’t get away…” His grin of pride hadn’t left his face. “You’re tight my love, but your body has already accepted me. I can feel it pulsing around me with a need for more. Are you ready for more, Jasmine?” The gentle growl that rolled over every word excited and transfixed her, and she couldn’t have pulled her gaze from him if she tried.
When she nodded he moved, pulling back his hips and taking her from tip to hilt in one long slow thrust that had her rising to meet his hips, “Does that hurt you love?” He breathed against her ear and she shook her head, eager for him to move within her again.
He started a steady rhythm, taking her slowly, easing her worries, building her need for release. Breathing soothing words against her neck, in between teasing her response with his tongue and nipping her with his blunt teeth, until she was matching his rhythm, pushing her hips closer, harder, to take him deeper.
“That’s it love, take me deeper, let me fill you.” His wolf was prancing within him, eager for the bite of bonding, but Nathan wouldn’t do that to his mate, not without her consent.
Mine. His wolf growled within him, and Nathan couldn’t help but utter his agreement. “Mine.” He breathed against her lips, taking her faster, hearing her breathing hitch with every long stroke inside her.
Her fingers curled against his, tightening their hold, as she gazed up into his eyes, sharing the intimacy between them with more than just her body, her magic reached
out for him, touching the beast within, and she saw the wolf in his eyes as his fangs elongated.
“Careful, Jasmine…” Nathan pulled away from her lips, starting to rise above her, but she circled her legs tightly around his thighs and kept him with her.
“Mark me as yours, Nathan. But if you bite me I will hurt you.” She managed, turning her head and offering her neck for his fangs. The gentle growl of desire against her neck as his tongue tasted her salted skin and raised her excitement, and she could feel the release gaining ground. Her inner muscles were starting to tense around him, making him work harder, causing the constant play of the head and shaft to rub over the tiny bud of nerves inside her.
The change in his body’s angle allowed the bottom of his shaft to rub over her swollen nub and she felt the need to let go, surrender to his body. His name on her lips as she soared towards release.
When his fangs touched her skin she gasped with the knowledge of what came next. He pressed the razor sharp tips into her skin, anticipating the second taste of her blood, this time sweeter, because she gave it willingly and it wasn’t clouded with the memory of the vampire, and because she would now be wearing his mark.
Unable to control his desire anymore he took his pleasure in her body. Thrusting into her with long, hard, deep strokes that sent her over the edge, and she cried out as her orgasm exploded within her.
The throbbing within her womb raced to every nerve ending of her body as she bucked beneath him. Waves of pure molten lava washed through her as he thrust faster. The feel of her muscles trying to milk his seed from his body, as they clenched and released in a sensual massage around him, making him almost insane.
Wade released his fangs and reared up over her, keeping his wolf at bay as he allowed himself the rush to climax he sought. The low growl starting within his chest and turning deeper as he took his pleasure, until finally he buried himself against her womb as his seed exploded out of him. Every muscle within his body felt the power of his release, and he pulled back and thrust into her again, over and over until he had nothing left to give.
Wade collapsed down onto his elbows above her, his arms shaking under the pressure to keep his weight from her body, protect her from crushing her beneath him, as he fought to regain his senses, while revelling in the after effects of his loving on his own body and hers.
Her inner muscles still throbbed, more so around him now that he wasn’t as hard, like a lover’s lips suckling him, and he didn’t want the feeling of being inside her to end just yet.
He collected her against him and rolled with her until he was lying on his back and she was draped across his chest, as she fought to control her breathing. His arms weighed heavy, but now he was off them, he could at least stroke his hands down her back, soothing her mind back to him, as he closed his eyes and revelled in the afterglow of making love to his mate.
“Are you hurt?” He looked down at her curled up on his chest, her fiery red hair a curtain across her face, and reached down to brush it aside. He heard her breathe a denial against his chest and reached for her. The scent of her blood drawing his senses to the fact that he hadn’t sealed her wounds, and he eased her body gently up his chest until he could nuzzle into her shoulder, and gently seal over the mark he had placed there. The feel of his tongue running across his mark sent a spark of life through her body and she finally moved against him.
“I felt your wolf.” She waited for him to finish tending her before she rested the palms of her hands on his chest and her chin against her hands as he looked down at her. His eyes hadn’t returned to the creamy chocolate that she knew them to be, they still shone black with passion, but the upturned smile of the corners of his lips and the gleam in his eyes made him look sexier than hell, and her inner self cooed.
“I know, and you nearly got bitten for your trouble.” He informed her, lifting his brows and berating her with his eyes. “That was a dangerous thing to do.”
The wicked smile that touched her lips and lit her eyes made him want to roll his eyes and sigh. His beast wasn’t the only one that needed to be tamed.
“Live dangerously, Alpha. Where’s your sense of adventure?” She teased and he used both his hands to brush her hair from around her face and to cup her cheeks as he grinned at her.
“I fear you have enough for the both of us, little witch.” He lifted his head and brushed his lips over hers.
“Who’s to say what is enough?” She teased again, a wicked gleam of mischief in her eyes and he chuckled, growing hard within her again.
“Not I. I don’t think I will ever get enough of you.”
“You didn’t even have the patience to undress me.” She berated him, and in an instant he had snagged her top and pulled it over her head.
“Let me correct that now.” It was his turn to deliver a wicked smile and she raised an eyebrow as she pushed up on his chest, straddling him and easing down on his hard erection until she took him to the hilt.
“Do you promise not to bite until I say you can?” She started to move her hips, undulating like a mermaid’s tail through the water, and his hands reached for her skirt, taking it over her head, and then placing his hands against her hips to steady her, but not stop her movements. She felt too damn good around him, and she was a sight to behold as she danced above him. Mesmerising.
“I promise not to bond. I like to bite…” He gave her a wolfish grin and she could help but chuckle, the way it made her inner muscles massage his shaft made him growl in pleasure.
“I like it when you bite, maybe we can find other places for you to sink your fangs?” Her offer enticed another growl from him.
Nathan moved with stealth over the rooftop. The shadows of the night kept him from view, and he came from downwind, so she couldn’t pick up his scent until it was too late and he was right beside her.
Sky’s head snapped to the right, her eyes taking him in as he stood over her. Her heart beat hammered in her chest for a long moment, as she came to the realisation that she wasn’t alone anymore. Her bolt hole had been discovered and by her mate no less, one more place she couldn’t be alone, one more sanctuary lost.
“And don’t even ask why I didn’t knock…” Nathan sat down beside her. His legs dangling over the side of the roof as he looked down at the grass below, narrowing his eyes in thought.
“I thought wolves didn’t do heights?”
“I’m not my wolf right now.” Sky answered, turning her head away from him to stare off into the distant woods.
“But still…”
“What do you want, Nathan?” Sky whipped her head back to glare at him.
“You Sky.” Nathan shot back as quickly as a flash and heard her sigh. “But right now I’ll settle for what’s eating you.”
“Not you, Vampire, so keep those fangs sheathed.” Sky muttered as she swung her legs back and forth, now eyeing the grass forty feet below her and wishing she could make that kind of a jump.
“That seems a little selfish as I shared with you.” Nathan teased and she cut her eyes at him.
“I never asked for it.”
“No you didn’t. You’re alpha asked me to save you…”
“And now you’re sorry you bothered.” Sky pushed up onto her feet and stood on the edge of the precipice.
“I am or you are?” Nathan asked, eyeing her nervously. He could catch her easily, save her from falling, but he didn’t like the fact that he might have to, she shouldn’t be taking chances in the first place.
“Meaning?” Sky glared down at him and he thought he might have just hit a nerve, especially with the way her shoulders had tensed, but then again it could just be a reaction to him, he couldn’t be sure.
“You’re awfully close to the edge for someone who doesn’t have a death wish, Sky.” Nathan’s comment made her take a full step back and she frowned down at him.
“I’m guessing it has something to do with the fact that you’ve been overly protected all of your life, by your family, your pack
, and now you’re alpha brother…” Nathan jumped to his feet in front of her, his back to the edge of the roof as he stared down at her.
Sky kept her eyes downwards, that frown was still lodged between her brows. “What’s that got to do with anything?” Sky snorted. He’d been here five minutes and because he was her mate he thought he knew her, she reasoned.
“Well some little wolves need to spread their wings and fly…” Nathan leaned in and whispered against her ears and she shivered from his proximity. But she liked it, she liked it a lot. The fact that he was a vampire was becoming more appealing by the moment. Maybe she did have a death wish. But then he was her mate and she knew he would never hurt her.
“I’m guessing you don’t really like the height up here, but you like the thrill of it. That and you can be alone here…”
“Could be…” She snorted starting to turn away, but he snagged her wrist and held her in place. A slow devilish grin spread his lips wide and made his dark eyes lighter and she felt the desire stirring within her.
“Can be. If you want me to go…”
“Go…” She snapped back and the grin turned into a smile.
“As you wish.” He turned and stepped off the edge of the roof and Sky caught her breath as she took a step forward and peeked over the edge. There he was, standing down on the ground looking back up at her and she raised one brow and wished she could follow him like that.
“Come back.” She whispered, without even realising that she had spoken the words out loud. He was at her side in a heartbeat and she gasped and turned towards him, her foot slipping against the edge of the weather shielding, and she tittered for long enough that her heart raced as well as her mind. The next second she was in his arms and pressed up against his chest, her head snapped back and she stared up into amused black eyes.
“How did it feel? The moment when you thought you would fall?” Nathan breathed down at her and she took a second to swallow her fears and her lies.
