Tracie’s thighs tightened, and her back arched as she came with such force calling out his name.
Nathaniel entered Tracie in one swift move burying his rock-hard cock inside her, stretching her. His balls smacked against her pussy as he pounded into her.
Tracie’s nails raked his back as she wrapped her legs around Nathaniel’s waist, enabling his cock to slip in deeper.
Nathaniel growled as thick hot spurts of his cum shot inside her pulsating pussy. He rolled over onto his side taking her with him. Gasping and panting, they lay together, spent and exhausted.
“I love you, Nate.”
“I love you too, Tracie.”
Their bodies entwined, they once again fell into a sex induced sleep.
They were woken by Nathaniel’s cellphone an hour later.
“Hello?” Nathaniel asked, still half asleep.
“Nate, I wanted to update you on Maximo,” Darias said.
“Okay, I’m fully awake, and so is Tracie. Let me put you on speaker.”
“As you know, Maximo had his wolf spirit removed. He tried to escape early this morning and was shot dead,” Darias informed them.
“Wow. So it’s over then. Tracie and I are safe.”
“Yes, you are. Creed’s followers that are still alive are still in jail and have no interest in you. The new pack has no desire to cause either of you harm. They were forced into following Creed. Maximo was an orphan and never mated, so there is no one to avenge him.”
“Thank you, Darias, for everything.”
“You’re welcome. It wasn’t really anything. It’s what a good pack does,” Darias said before hanging up.
“Would you like some more great news?” Tracie asked.
“Great news is always welcome.”
“My wolf said that she could sense a life form inside of me. We’re going to have a baby!”
“Sweetheart, that’s the best news I’ve heard since we mated. Thank you for giving me a family.”
“No, Nate. Thank you.”

About the Author
K R Hall
Hi there! I’m Karen Hall.
I’m a New Englander by birth. I grew up along both the east coast and west coast as my father was in the military. After my eight years in the military, I moved to Colorado in 1992.
When not creating amazing new worlds for readers to get lost in, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two rescue dogs, Sammie and Jake, who are both chihuahua mixes.
I have been writing in various genres since 2017; although paranormal romance is my go-to genre, I also have two mysteries and a contemporary romance under my belt.
Starting my journey as a reader, one of my favorite authors encouraged me to begin writing; with my family and husband’s support, the stories started flowing freely.
All ten of my books are available through Amazon, where I publish them exclusively. Pick up a copy and fall in love with my books today!
