Victoria frowned at that last statement Melody made. She didn’t get it. What was he doing again? All he was doing was making sure she was okay.
“Then let me see Mel.”
“I think it’s just a sprain,” Melody said, as Adam examined her ankle. She attempted to not wince when Adam touched her ankle.
“Come on, let’s start heading back and putting some ice on that ankle.”
With little effort Adam lifted Melody off the ground and had her fitted in his arms.
At the urging done by Melody, Victoria and Kaden continued on with the hike. Victoria and Kaden were a good distance away from the couple, when she realized she was still in possession of Melody’s camera. Kaden promised her he would make sure Melody received the camera back.

He was torn. The plan had been simple. Kaden had played around with the idea, but now, he wasn’t sure he wanted to see it through. He’d brought it up to Adam during their brief break. Adam thought Kaden was crazy, but then, he said he understood Kaden’s reason. Now that he was alone with Victoria he wasn’t sure if he should proceed. Adam and Melody were gone. He couldn’t shift here alone with just her.
I have lost my damned mind. Shit, things would have been easier if she just wasn’t human.
Kaden pushed the growl rising up down. He was frustrated. The truth couldn’t be ignored or denied. This would have been much easier if Victoria wasn’t a human. Sooner than later he was going to have to reveal he was a shifter. The man who wanted her was part animal, but nothing to be feared. Her voice pulled him away from his troubled thoughts.
“I really hope Melody is okay.”
“Adam will make sure of it.”
“Yeah I am sure he will,” Victoria said, as a smile slowly broke out on her face. Kaden frowned and wondered what the cause of that smile was.
“What are you over there smiling about,” Kaden inquired.
“Adam and Melody, you can tell they really care about each other.”
Kaden nodded his head in agreement. “Yeah, you can definitely see that.”
I can’t do it now. Not while we are alone.
“What is that sound?”
Victoria came to a halt. Kaden stopped too and turned to face her. He chuckled and grabbed her hand urging her to keep walking. Kaden hadn’t been to this area in so long.
“Oh my god,” Victoria said as she came to a stop again. “It’s beautiful. I didn’t know one was here and so close.”
From a safe distance Victoria and Kaden eyed the raging waterfall.
“I knew you’d like it.”
Kaden strolled behind her as she walked closer to get a better look.
“I can only wonder how many other women you have brought here, Mr. Wright.”
“Plenty,” Kaden said casually as he stuffed a hand in the back pocket of his jeans.
“Figures,” Victoria said, as she looked at from over her shoulder. Kaden let out a throaty chuckle and shook his head.
“Nah, I haven’t brought any women up here before. I used to come here alone from time to time.”
“When you say it like that you sound sad as if this place has bad memories.”
“I do,” Kaden inquired as he took a step in her direction.
Hell, it did but she didn’t need to know that right now. She didn’t need to know this is where he spent some of his nights after being locked out or kicked out by Morgan over the littlest thing. This place was his little piece of heaven back then.
“Yeah you do. I wonder what it is.”
“Like I told you earlier get to know me.”
Why are my hands so fucking sweaty? I’m a fucking alpha and I am nervous. Christ! Get it together man.
“Do you have any water left? My throat is a bit dry.”
Kaden retrieved a water bottle and handed it over. Victoria mumbled a thank you as she reached for the bottle.
“I can’t believe I wasted all my time in that cabin.”
“Why did you?”
“Well, it wasn’t like I knew anyone here. Plus after the widow Mrs. Bell left to move down to Florida for retirement, leaving a behind a job opening that I immediately went after, but it was just something to keep me busy. I was a depressed mess. I don’t think I would have been good company.”
“What do you mean depressed?”
“You don’t want to know,” Victoria said with the roll of her eyes.
“Yes I do. Come on. I really want to know.”
Victoria laughed and took a sip of water.
“Alright, I had a broken heart, and coming here was just me pretty much running away from it all. And running just made me look a very sad individual. I just couldn’t handle the betrayal.”
“He didn’t deserve you.”
“No, he didn’t, and neither did my so called best friend. She wasn’t really a friend. No, she was willing sleep to with my fiancé. Friends don’t cross lines like that.”
“I’m kind of glad she fucking did.”
“What,” Victoria squealed.
“Yeah, I mean you wouldn’t be here right now. Here with me. So, I could kiss the hell out of fate right now for making sure you got to me.”
“Stop it Kaden and stop looking at me like that.”
Kaden chuckled. Oh this devour you look, but it’s really more of an I-really-want-to-fuck the-shit-out-of-you kind of look. And it’s been hard as hell not to taste her lips again.
Victoria turned away from him and drunk from the water bottle. Kaden couldn’t resist a minute longer. He slowly strolled closer.
“So?”
“What,” Kaden asked, as he stopped at her back. Victoria hesitated before taking a step forward.
“Um, thanks for showing me…well bringing me here. It’s beautiful here.”
“Not as beautiful as you Victoria.”
“Kaden it’s just a waterfall.”
Kaden took another step to reclose the gap between them.
“And I don’t want a waterfall,” he said while linking his arm around her waist.
I want you.
A soft groan came from Victoria as she leaned into him. Kaden leaned down to rub his nose along her neck, inhaling deeply, and taking in her scent. He wondered again why he had been fighting against this.
“You smell so fucking good.”
Victoria laughed, but inhaled sharply, as she felt his tongue, and his lips gliding over the sensitive area. Her hand reached up to grip his hair. Victoria shifted slightly as she yanked on his hair to force his head to the right angle to gain access to his lips.
Damn so much for keeping my hands to myself. Mmmm, I couldn’t resist anymore.
Kaden moaned. Victoria increased her grip on Kaden’s hair as their tongues touched. Slowly Kaden’s hands roamed to various places on her body. Kaden broke away first. He needed the air considering he had been holding his breath. Victoria groaned at the loss of his lips and brought him back in for another kiss. And here he was afraid of the kiss ending so soon. He sensed Victoria didn’t want it to end, not yet. Their tongues moved in sequence. Victoria managed to turn around completely, to where she was finally facing Kaden. Her hands moved underneath his shirt rubbing up and down his well-defined chest. Kaden thought about ending this now. To break away from her before this went too far and control slipped away from the both of them completely. He couldn’t find the will power to stop. Kaden didn’t want this to stop.
Just one more second!
Kaden enjoyed the feeling of his tongue of his tongue moving against hers and the way her soft hands floated over his chest. He received no objections when his own hands went underneath her t-shirt. Kaden worked fast to release a breast magically from the lace feeling bra. Within seconds his hand was full. Victoria moaned into his mouth and placed a hand on top Kaden’s.
Where the hell is your control Kaden? Come on man. Get your shit together!
He wasn’t naïve. Kaden could tell she wanted him and recognized the smell of desire that oozed f
rom her body. The pheromones attacked his senses and intensified his own craving. Kaden prolonged this for as much as he could without making this go further beyond touching and kissing. This was not where he wanted to have Victoria. Not here. With great reluctance Kaden put a stop to their heated actions. He only succeeded in becoming horny as hell. Denying them both wanted pleasure. And it didn’t help as images of them together flashed though his mind.
Chapter Eleven
Victoria was revved up and ready to go right there on the ground in the open. She protested when Kaden ended it. When Kaden said it was time he get her back home she was disappointed and refused to let it show. Another night with her vibrator wasn’t going to cut it. She needed Kaden. She wanted Kaden. Victoria tried not to think about it.
Why do I need him? Damn it, I have a pretty damned good vibrator sitting inside my dresser draw.
She pushed aside her craving for the man walking beside her as they finally made it back to her cabin. This wouldn’t be the first time she had to take matters into her own hands to ease the ache between her thighs. Even though, she wanted Kaden between her thighs, Victoria certainly didn’t have a problem with whipping out the purple vibrator again. It wasn’t what she wanted, but it would do, it had to until she got what she wanted. If she was willing to wait!
Screw it. I am not going to let him leave me in this awakened state. I don’t want to use that toy again. I can’t do it.
Victoria fished her key from her pocket. She hurried to unlock the door. Thinking about what she was going to do to fix her current state. She only wanted Kaden to help her with her current state. To hell with any consequences if there were any.
“Bye Victoria.”
No Kaden! This is not how you do the girl you claim you want, Victoria thought as she pushed the door open. She didn’t want to walk in their alone. Not today. She whirled around to see Kaden walking over to his truck. Victoria didn’t want him to go. After what happened earlier out there between the two of them she just couldn’t delay having him. Victoria took a deep breath.
Say something Vic. Don’t let him leave you like this. What is the worst that could happen? Grow some balls girl.
“What and you don’t want to finish what you started?” An eyebrow quirked up as Kaden came to a stop. She held her breath as Kaden made his way over to her. Kaden ran a hand through his hair. He let out a groan as he closed in the distance between them. Kaden placed both his hands on the side of her face and leaned in to take her lips. Victoria made damn sure to return kisses that packed heat. She used her tongue to coax him to give her what she wanted. Her fingers were once again in his hair. Victoria whimpered as she felt him tug backwards.
“I do and I plan on it,” Kaden said when he pulled away. “I always finish what I start.”
Sometimes a girl has to do what she has to do to get what she wants. Right now I want him. I want him fucking bad.
Victoria bit down on the bottom her lip and backed into the cabin. With a laugh she gripped the bottom of her shirt. In seconds she had the shirt on the floor. She was putting herself out there in ways that was out of her nature. Victoria didn’t care about a relationship, where this lead to after, as she only just needed him. She just needed sexual contact from Kaden. The rest she’d think about later, even the shame if she felt it after, but as of now it wasn’t on her mind.
“Well then, are you positive,” Victoria said, as she tried not to laugh at the expression on his face. Her hands went to work on the clasp of her bra. “I’m going to take me a shower. If you want you can join me or close the front door for me.”
It’s written on your face Kaden. You want the same thing I want right now.
She backed away and headed for the bathroom. Victoria twisted the knob in the shower and finished undressing. She listened as she stepped into the shower. Victoria groaned as the water hit her sore legs. With a sigh, Victoria held her breath, and ducked under the shower head. She quickly moved backwards and wiped the water from her eyes.
Don’t reject me. I’m inviting you to come and get me Kaden.
The sound a door closing made hold her breath again as she listened for footsteps. After hearing none she concluded he left. She tried not to be disappointed as she reached for the body wash. The hand, that got there before her caused her to jump and spin around. She hadn’t heard any footsteps or the sound of him stepping into the shower.
The corner of Victoria’s lip lifted. I win! She didn’t break eye contact as she felt his lathered hands roam down her arms. Kaden broke eye contact as he glanced down at her body. Victoria looked down and followed the movement of his hands.
Oh shit! Damn, my calculation was bad.
Victoria couldn’t help but glance between Kaden’s toned legs. She declared silently to herself there was no way his cock was going near her mouth. A fan of deep throated from time to time she wasn’t sure she could even fit half of him in her mouth. She moved closer to Kaden and reached for it. Kaden groaned as her hand tightened around his cock. Victoria didn’t take notice of the hands on her own body as she became fascinated with biggest cock she’d seen compared to the three men she’d only been with.
I think I could work my way around this, Victoria thought as her hand moved up and down. Kaden groaned as he allowed her to play with him while his own hands continued to roam over her body. She wanted him to touch her too. Victoria used her free hand to move one of Kaden’s between her thighs. She missed the words Kaden muttered as he forced her legs apart and rubbed her already wet sex. About to ask him what he had said Kaden brought his lips down to hers. Her back arched slightly as she felt a finger slide inside of her sex. Victoria’s eyes fluttered closed. She finally realized what was missing from her vibrator and what it could never give her compared to this. Warmth!
Victoria bit the bottom of Kaden’s lip as she felt him use the palm of his hand to rub against her clit. Any attention there was her undoing. It was every woman’s undoing with the right licking by tongue, the right flicking with fingers, and the secret to a swift orgasm. She wanted this to last longer than that. At least until she had him inside of her inch by inch. She attempted to ignore the delightful pleasure and focused on equaling the playing field. Victoria had watched enough porn to figure out what some men might like. She had wanted to do more of this exploring on the male anatomy before but never got around to it. Sex had always been a basic routine of the same thing without much exploring in her previous relationships.
Images of from porn scenes flashed through her mind. Breaking off the kiss Victoria glanced down. She picked up speed and placed her other hand on his balls. Remembering how the female porn stars handled their co-stars with delicious care she lightly massaged him there. As if sensing her angle Kaden added another finger inside of her and thrust upwards with new vigor causing her to shudder.
He is going to make me come.
Victoria breathlessly told him to stop. She wasn’t ready to give in.
“What’s wrong?
“You are going to make me come,” she admitted.
“That is the plan Victoria.”
“Not yet.”
***
Kaden pushed his fingers in deeper ignoring her command. His was past rational thinking. He’d wanted to do this the right way. Kaden wanted her to know the truth about him before things went down this road. He really tried to resist doing this. Regret washed over him but it quickly disappeared when he saw the look on Victoria’s face. How could he ignore his mate’s needs? She needed him, wanted him, and he was not about to turn his back on her right now. If she wanted him so be it. Pleasing his mate was just a natural instinct that was unignorable, wired into his brain, and there was no way in hell he could walk away from the invitation. His clothes rested on the floor in a path that lead to the bathroom. Kaden had removed with speed.
“I want you to Victoria. Let it happen,” Kaden mumbled.
“K-K-Kaden I-” Victoria inhaled sharply at the quick movements of his fingers. Kaden nee
ded her to climax. He needed to milk as many as he could before he entered her warm tight sex. Kaden wanted to make sure she was able to take all of him. He made sure to apply pressure to that little nub above the opening of her sex. Victoria gripped onto his shoulder blades tightly. She was close and fighting it. Kaden used his thumb to coax her into giving in to the beckoning orgasm. Victoria rocked her hips to the tempo of his thrusting slippery fingers. He felt her inner muscles squeeze around his fingers.
That’s it give into it.
Kaden wrapped an arm around her waist and held Victoria close as she finally caved in. Spasms raked her body. Kaden softly stroked her as she came back down off her euphoric high. Victoria laughed as Kaden kissed her on the nose. He released her and moved her under the shower head so the water could remove the dried up body wash.
Silently Kaden and Victoria stood in the shower as she got rid of the body wash. Kaden let out a curse as his cell phone blared.
“Give me sec,” Kaden mumbled, as he stepped out of the shower. He walked to the sink and picked up the cell phone and answered after reading Adam’s number.
“Yeah,” Kaden answered.
“Hey man. Yeah Melody forgot her camera do you think you can bring it to me when we meet up tonight?”
Yeah man I will do that.”
“Awesome. And look Tristan might have found something on this Joanne person you were looking for. He is going to bring the information over to you.”
“What right now,” Kaden asked as he glanced at the shower.
“No, he is bringing it with him tonight.”
Kaden was relieved. He didn’t have the willpower to leave. Pleasing his mate was the only objective he could focus on. Desire had clouded his rational thought process.
“All right good I will see you guys then, bye,” Kaden said as he ended the call. He quickly powered down the cell. Victoria shut off the water and stepped out of the shower. She quickly wrapped a towel around her body.
