Mag-log inThe next morning, golden rays of sunlight spilled across the bedroom floor. Cole woke up first, resting on his side to watch Britney sleep deeply against the pillows. He gently brushed his fingers across her cheek, marveling at how profound his affection had grown.
Knowing that tonight he would officially mark her on their honeymoon only deepened the bond twisting in his chest, making him wonder how he would manage to keep his hands to himself. Britney shifted, groaningThe captain taxied the jet along the air strip before easing the throttles forward, hurtling down the runway until the aircraft's nose lifted into the open air. Beside him, Britney instinctively closed her eyes and clutched the edges of her leather sofa seat with white-knuckled intensity. Sensing her tension, Cole reached across the console, placing his warm hand gently over hers. He stroked his thumb soothingly over the back of her hand and began rubbing circles. "First time flying?" he asked, a hint of genuine surprise in his voice. "No, I flew plenty of times with my grandmother when I was younger," Britney murmured, her eyes still shut tight. "It's just been so long, and I've always had this lingering fear of heights." "Open your eyes, wifey," Cole whispered, his deep voice carrying a quiet anchor of safety. "Look outside." Britney fluttered her eyelids open, turning her head toward the cabin window. The jet had already broken through
"Wait," Britney said, tapping Cole’s arm. "The departure gates were back there. Where are we going?" "We aren't using the public terminal," Cole replied calmly. "We're heading toward the private aviation hangars where my aircraft is waiting." "Your own personal aircraft?" Britney echoed, her eyes widening. A wave of irritation and anger hit her as she remembered how rushed she had been that morning. She was forced to wake up early and then she didn’t get a chance to seduce him in the shower. “Wait—if you have a private plane, why were you rushing me out of bed so early?! You made me panic thinking we were going to miss our flight!" Cole burst out laughing at her outraged expression. "Wife, just because it's a private aircraft doesn't mean air traffic control bends the universe to our schedule. Slots are fixed down to the minute. If we missed our designated takeoff window, we could have lost our clearance for hours." "
The next morning, golden rays of sunlight spilled across the bedroom floor. Cole woke up first, resting on his side to watch Britney sleep deeply against the pillows. He gently brushed his fingers across her cheek, marveling at how profound his affection had grown. Knowing that tonight he would officially mark her on their honeymoon only deepened the bond twisting in his chest, making him wonder how he would manage to keep his hands to himself. Britney shifted, groaning softly as she rolled onto his arm and drifted closer. Cole closed his eyes, taking a steadying breath to anchor his rising wolf. Not until tonight, he reminded himself. She needs her energy intact for the marking. Gently shaking her shoulder, he whispered, "Wifey, wake up. We need to head to the airport soon." "Just five more minutes..." Britney mumbled into the blankets. "I'm so tired." "If we linger any longer, we'll miss our flight," Cole warned gen
Exhausted from a whirlwind of heavy shopping and intense passion, Britney drifted off to sleep in the back seat of the car on the drive back. Cole gently adjusted her dress, started the engine, and navigated the winding estate roads back to the mansion. Once parked, he mind-linked Eleanor to quietly request a warm blanket brought out to the car. Eleanor hurried down, taking in the scene and the lingering scent in the air with a knowing smile before hurrying off to have Britney’s dinner sent directly to their master suite. Cole wrapped Britney securely in the blanket and carried her in princess style straight up to their bedroom. Inside, Cole treated her to a soothing hot shower, holding her close as she sleepily leaned against him the entire time. Once she was clean, he dressed her in soft, fluffy loungewear. "I actually thought you were going to ravish me again," Britney mumbled sleepily, blinking up at him. "How come you're putting warm
Britney lay sprawled across the back seat, her dark hair scattered wildly across the leather upholstery, her skirt hiked up high against her hips. She was breathing in ragged, shallow gasps, slightly damp from the fine mist that had clung to her skin before they rushed inside. Hovering over her, Cole adjusted his weight, his eyes dark with an unbridled, feral hunger. With a quick, sharp motion of one hand, he popped the button of his jeans and shoved them down just enough to free his straining length. Settling heavily between her thighs, he looked down at her with a wicked, possessive smirk. "My wicked wife," he rasped, his voice rough as sandpaper. "You have no idea what I'm about to do to you." The heavy anticipation made Britney’s breath hitch, her chest heaving as a light shiver ran through her frame from the lingering chill of the rain. Without a word of warning, Cole dipped his head, capturing her lips in a deep hungry kiss.
Without breaking his eyes from the wet road ahead, Cole slid his right hand off the steering wheel and rested it deliberately onto her bare thigh beneath the skirt, just like the morning but this time it was more intimate touch. The scorching heat of his palm sent a violent jolt of static electricity straight up Britney’s spine. The contrast between the cool rainy air blowing from the window and the searing fire of his hand made her breath hitch. She shifted uneasily, her pulse hammering against her ribs. Slowly, almost hypnotically, Cole’s fingers began tracing lazy, wandering circles against her skin, creeping higher. Reaching out, Britney caught his wrist. "Cole, please... save it for when we get home. Don't tease me like this again." "What are you talking about?" Cole murmured innocently, though a dark smirk played at the corner of his lips. "I'm just driving." "You're trying to seduce me," she accused, turning to face him.
