Geek Bearing Gifts (BBW Paranormal Shape Shifter Romance): A BBW in search of love + A sexy shifter who secretly loved her = Smokin' Roaring Romance (Paranormal Dating Agency Book 2)

by Milly Taiden

  There were cuts and gashes all over his fur. She couldn’t tell how bad they were from the lack of light and the sheeting rain. He met her gaze and prowled toward her. Instinct told her to run, to get away from him. He had a dangerous look she’d never seen before. The beast controlled him.

  She eyed the muddy hill. It was going to be impossible for her to get up there. She’d just keep sliding back down, making a fool of herself if she tried. Then he was there, in front of her. She glanced up and gasped. He lowered and opened his arms for her. She held on to his furry neck. There was no fear as he lifted her legs in his arms, careful not to dig his claws in her skin. Still very much in his bear body, he carried her in the direction of his cabin.

  It was easy for him to use the tree limbs to climb back up the hill. When they reached the creek, she wiggled in his hold.

  “Put me down!”

  He did so, gently.

  “You come back to your human body. I need to talk to you,” she demanded.

  She stepped away from him, waiting for the shift. In his human body, she saw his cuts with more clarity. He had bruises but nothing appeared to be life threatening.

  “Nita!” he called when she turned away. “I’m sorry.”

  She whipped around to face him again, inhaling hard and ignoring the harsh raindrops stroking her body. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

  “I was stupid,” he said, stepping closer.

  “Don’t give me that crap!” she threw back. It was hard enough to keep her eyes from straying down his body. Now he wanted to feed her some corny line. “We both know how intelligent you are. Why didn’t you tell me we knew each other?”

  His gaze dropped to the ground, his chest heaved from the shift and the fight. He looked so good wet.

  “I didn’t want you to judge me based on the awkward kid I used to be,” he admitted.

  Maybe he really was stupid. Her mind and body struggled for dominance. She wanted to tackle him and rub herself all over his naked body and at the same time slap some sense into him.

  “Are you serious?” She turned away, blood boiling with frustration. “I can’t do this.”

  She marched toward the car, trying to ignore the icky feeling of the mud sliding in between her toes. She’d only gone a few yards when he grabbed her arms and tugged her around to face him.

  “What do you want from me?” His face was soaked. Water streamed down his body from the pouring rain.

  “I want the truth!” She didn’t know what possessed her to scream at him, but she already knew her feelings. There was no going back after this. If they had any chance at all they had to be honest with each other.

  “The truth? Fine.” He jerked her close into his arms. “The truth is I knew from the moment I saw you seventeen years ago that you were the only one for me.” His gaze bore into her. The raw honesty in his eyes kept her unmoving. “At first it was an attraction, a pull, I couldn’t understand. When we started spending more time together it was clear to me that we had a connection that went beyond the physical. Yes, I was attracted to you back then. Even with how shy you were. Despite my inability to say a full sentence to you without stuttering from nerves, I knew you were my one.”

  She swallowed at the dryness in her throat. Her stomach twisted in knots with every word that came out of his gorgeous mouth.

  “How do you think I felt, the kid that everyone picked on because I was skinnier than anyone in the clan? I wore braces and probably the ugliest glasses in the world. I had minimal self-esteem. But when I was with you, I was on top of the world.”

  She blinked back the tears filling her eyes. She knew firsthand how hard school had been for a kid that was picked on. She’d lived it. Emotions overwhelmed her. Hope. Sadness. Pain. All of them swirled around in her chest filling her heart to near bursting. She heard the raw honesty in his words. Saw it in his eyes. They had more than most people ever dreamed of, a connection since the first time they met as kids. She struggled to swallow back the knot in her throat.

  “Ky—” Her heart ached. Tears burned in her eyes. So much had been suffered by both already.

  “Let me finish.” He lowered his head a fraction. “Do you know it broke my heart when you moved away? You never even told me where you were going. You just left.”

  “I’m...I’m sorry.” She loved him so much at that moment. He’d told how he felt and stood in front of her, still wanting to be with her. It was time to stop fighting it and find their happily ever after.

  “No. I did not tell you who I was when I woke up in my kitchen floor with you leaning over me. At first I was in shock. Do you know how many times I dreamed of something like that? But when I realized you didn’t recognize me I thought it was for the best. I’m not the insecure kid I used to be.” He licked the raindrops that continued to fall off his lips. “Although you can reduce me to a hormonal teenage boy, I am a different person today.”

  She shook her head, ignoring her soaked state and the clothes clinging to her like second skin. “No. You’re not. You’re still the sweet, nice boy I fell in love with back then.” His eyes went wide and she smiled. If he could open up about his feelings then she could too. “Yeah. I had a crush on the geeky boy that tutored me. That connection you speak of? I felt it too! And now...” She glanced down at his lips then back at his eyes. “Now I’m in love with the adult version of Ky Stone.”

  He stood there, staring at her. Saying nothing.

  She cleared her throat. “I’m in love with you, Ky. I love you.”

  There was a heartbeat of silence. Then his lips crashed over hers. Passion flared brighter than the last time they’d been together. He held her lips captive, driving his tongue into her mouth with a new aggression she hadn’t seen before. Need pooled at her core, scorching her brain cells and pushing all rational thought out the window.

  He tore his mouth from hers to drop kisses all over her face, down her jaw and to her neck. She didn’t notice when they fell to the ground in a tight embrace. Nor when her dress came off. What did burn into her brain was the feel of his lips on her skin at the same time rain drops continued to fall on them.

  The heat of his mouth encasing her nipple, combined with the cool drops of water added to the raging fire in her blood. He sucked her hard nubs, grazing his teeth over them and tugging.

  “Oh, Ky...”

  He slid his hands down, tearing at her panties. “Yes, sweetheart. Say my name. I like hearing it out of your lips.”

  She moaned, spread her thighs open and gasped at the finger he slid inside her.

  “Fuck! You’re ready for me, aren’t you?”

  She bit her bottom lip and whimpered. “I need you. Ky...I—”

  He was at her entrance, pressing the head of his cock into her wet sheath. “I love you, Nita.” He drove forth. In a single smooth slide he filled her.

  A gasp of pleasure tore from her throat. “Yes!”

  He rumbled and pulled back. The heat from his body cocooned her in a warm embrace. Their lips met again. Another scorching kiss with their tongues rubbing over each other. His thrusts increased in speed and strength.

  “I’m sorry.” He sucked on the pulse at the base of her throat. The errant pulse that ran at a million miles per hour. “I can’t slow down,” he groaned. “I want you more than you know.”

  She clung to his shoulders, curling her legs around his hips. “I can imagine. I want you just as bad.”

  There were no more words after that, just his body moving in and out of hers in powerful thrusts. Tension curled into a ball at her core. Her pussy felt aflame. She gasped and moaned, unable to speak a coherent word. For every thrust, he sucked at her shoulder.

  She became lost in the sensation of pleasure. The feeling of fulfillment from the one man she finally opened her heart to. He pulled out of her and flipped her on her stomach. The rain continued to fall on them, cooling their bodies.

  She wiggled on all fours and glanced over her shoulder at him. “Fuck me, Ky.”


  He slapped a hand on her hip and guided his cock into her pussy with the other. Again, there was no soft and careful. He drove forward swiftly. One deep penetrating thrust that left her gasping for air. He gripped her hips and fucked her fast, hard. With a wild animal abandon she’d never experienced before. It was amazing and perfect.

  There was no need for sweet words at this point. She knew he loved her. What she wanted now was for him to make the ache in her pussy ease. She needed for him to help that tightness in her muscles turn into a wave of pleasure coursing from her head to her toes.

  “You’ve always been mine,” he said, tapping her right ass cheek with his palm.

  “God, yes.”

  His powerful drives increased in speed. Only the sound of the rain and the slapping of his body on hers sounded in the forest.

  “Tell me you’ll be mine forever, baby,” he said, voice rough and deep.

  There was no question or doubt in her mind that she wanted to be with him. He was the first and only man her heart had allowed inside.

  “Yes. I’m yours,” she moaned. “Forever.”

  He dropped on all fours, caging her.

  “I’m going to take you every way possible,” he breathed by her ear. “Your mouth. I love your mouth. I can’t wait to see my cock down your throat.”

  She hitched a breath, feeling the burn of her blood on boil.

  “Your pussy. Shit,” he groaned. “I love fucking you deep and hard, feeling it close around my dick like a silky tongue.” He angled his hips and she almost saw double.

  “Oh, but your ass,” he grunted, moving his hand from her waist and slipping it between their bodies. He slid a finger around her ass and pressed at her hole. The sensation was more than she could handle at that moment. Even though they weren’t ready for it, she wanted him to do her there so bad she hurt from how tight her muscles were.

  She moaned and pressed into his finger. It slid just a fraction into her asshole.

  He licked her back and panted. “That’s going to be the biggest treat. I can’t wait to fuck your tight little hole and fill you with my cum back there.”

  She shoved her ass into each of his thrusts. He brought his hand back up to her waist and gripped her firmly. Harder than he’d done before.

  “I’m marking you as mine,” he said. “I want you as my mate.”

  “Do it. I’ll always be yours. Only yours.”

  He fucked her in firm solid strokes. So harsh she swore he’d break her in half soon. His cock felt like heated steel inside her, branding her as his. He hit her at an angle. Her eyes rolled back. Christ he was fucking amazing. He pulled her body up, switching the depth of his penetration. She moaned at the new feeling of fullness.

  He slipped the hand he had on her waist between her legs and flicked over her clit, rubbing on the nerve bundle back and forth. She gasped. The tightness in her body snapped.

  “God, yes!” he roared. “Come on my dick and squeeze tight with your pussy.”

  She screamed his name. A rush of pleasure liquefied her bones. Her muscles shook and she’d have fallen on her face if he didn’t have her tight in his grasp. Her pussy clutched at his driving cock. He moved his hand back to her waist, digging his claws into her flesh at the same time he bit her back. Her body continued to wade through the pouring of euphoria from her first orgasm and the one that followed when he bit her.

  He growled, still biting her back and drove a final time into her. Deep. He filled her with his seed then. Her pussy milked him of his cum. It was by far the most erotic experience of her life.

  Blinking her brain back to reality took a while. She was still gasping for breath minutes later when he pulled out of her.

  He kissed her back and picked her up in his arms. She sighed and snuggled into him. They were wet, muddy and covered in leaves. If that wasn’t wild sex she had no idea what was. Instead of heading for the cabin, he jumped into the creek with her in his arms.

  She screeched when they came up for air.

  “Are you insane?” She slapped his shoulder and curled her legs and arms around him like he was her only form of salvation.

  He chuckled and kissed her. “We’re dirty. This is the easiest way to get clean.”

  She raised her brows. “Did you forget I can’t swim?”

  A playful grin covered his lips. “Then I guess you’ll have to hold on to me, won’t you?”

  She rolled her eyes, but tightened her hold on him just in case. “You know, you’re lucky I’m so patient.”

  His flirty grin turned into a full blown smile. “I know. I love you. All sides of you.”

  “Flattery will get you—” She sighed. “Oh, alright. It works. Especially if you promise me some of the awesome stuff you do with your tongue.”

  He roared a laugh. “You really are great for my ego.”

  She cupped his face in her hands and stared him in the eyes. “Don’t ever lie to me again. Even by omission. I won’t stand for it. If you really love me then you won’t do anything that hurts me.” She was all seriousness as she spoke. “Tell me the truth all the time, no matter how bad you think it is and we’ll always work through it.”

  “I’m sorry, Nita. I’ll never lie to you again.”

  She harrumphed. “Good, because if you do, I’ve got Tally ready to bite your furry ass off. Trust me, she’s vicious.”

  He slid the hair away from her face. “Your cousin can stand down. I don’t need her to come bite me anywhere. I will allow you to do it whenever you want though.”

  “Now that has some good possibilities, Mr. Bear.”

  * * *

  A month later, Nita stared at the claw marks on her hip. The night he’d mated her in the rain he’d scratched her to mark her as his. The scratches had healed but now she had claw marks that would never go away. He entered the bedroom from his shower, rubbing a towel over his head to dry off.

  “What are you doing?”

  She slapped her hand on her hip. “Look!”

  He grinned. “I see.”

  “You think this is funny? I have claw marks on my hip. And teeth marks on my back.” She frowned. “I don’t even want to know what Grandma Kate will say the next time we see her.”

  “When is that?” he asked, tossing the towel on the bed and marching to where she stood.

  “Next week.”

  “You can tell her you’re ready to hibernate for the winter with me,” he joked and rubbed his erection on her back.

  She turned around, curled her arms around his neck and smiled. “You’re a pervert. I didn’t realize how much of one you are. I like it.”

  “I aim to please,” he said, squeezing her ass cheek.

  She yawned and leaned into his hug. “I need a nap.”

  “You’ll be needing lots of those soon, darling.”

  “Why?” She jerked her head up and stared into his smiling hazel eyes.

  Oh.

  Shit.

  “Yeah, that,” he said. He must have seen the realization of her state dawn on her face.

  “This is all your fault.” She tried to sound chastising but couldn’t when all she felt was absolutely happy. “Sexy ass geeky bear. Get me pregnant and you find it funny. Now when will I ever go back to work?”

  “Never. You don’t have to work. But if you want something to do, you can be my sex slave.”

  “That one sounds like something we should discuss.”

  He pulled away from her arms with a laugh. “Wait here.”

  She stared at the claw marks on her hip again. Well, at least they weren’t on her belly. With a growing pregnancy they’d end up looking like big foot prints.

  He returned with two boxes in hand. “I come bearing gifts.”

  She laughed. “Hah! I get it. You silly bear.”

  He frowned then laughed as if just realizing what he’d said. He handed her the larger box first. “This is for you. A symbol of how much you mean to me.”

  She opened it carefully, wondering what he’d got
ten her. Inside the box there was a pendant. The pendant was a bear wearing glasses. She flipped it over and read the inscription.

  “A bear is only as smart as the woman who puts up with his growling.”

  She grinned. “I like that.”

  The smaller box came next. She was about to open it when he took it back. “I thought of this day since I was fourteen. I know it sounds stupid but it’s true.”

  “Ky—”

  He dropped down on one knee. “I love you, Nita. Will you spend the winters putting up with my growly ass and the summers mating with me in every way possible? Forever?” He cleared his throat. “Will you marry me?”

  She nodded. “Yes. But I think I’d like the mating to take place year round. I don’t know if I can live that long without it. I’m pretty addicted to that body of yours.”

  He slid the antique style ring over her finger and pulled her in for a kiss.

  “I love you, geek bear.”

  “I love you, beautiful.”

  EPILOGUE

  Gerri opened up an email she’d gotten a few days back. She needed to stop hanging out with her nephew and baking or she’d never get her business off the ground.

  Dr. Mrs. Wilder,

  My name is Alyssa Moran. I’m a co-worker of Tally’s. She mentioned your services and I’ve met her men. They’re hot. Like panty-dropping sexy. Yeah, you guessed it. I want my own hot man. I don’t expect you to match me up with two of them, lord knows one is a feat on its own. I’d love to meet a nice guy for once. Maybe a guy that likes a woman with some curves. I’ve always been afraid of using dating services because men are only looking for sex and people never look like they say. Attached is a full body photo of me that I took today. Please don’t laugh at the three cats. They’re my only company. If you can send a man my way that likes cats, I’d be eternally grateful.

  Gerri glanced down at the open file on her desk, grinning. The leader of a tiger pride needed a mate. He’d been recommended by the bear. Apparently he lived in a neighboring area. The tiger needed a mate soon or he’d be challenged for his pride. She’d need to find him someone willing to take on a hissing tiger.
