“Yes. Even though you’d done what you did, I couldn’t let him think there was a chance with the two of us, so I told him no. I told him I would never love him that way, and the only chance we have is to be friends. Forever.”“Wasn’t he your first?” Luke asked.“First? You think he was my first lover?”He didn’t say anything.“Wow, okay, I’m going to tell you right now so we don’t end up with any cross-wiring or whatever, but I’m a virgin.”“What?”“That’s right, Alpha. I’m a virgin. No man has ever passed this threshold. I’ve never had sex. You were also my first kiss. You’ve been my only kiss.” She winked at him. “I think it’s time for lunch.”She made to brush past him but Luke captured her in his arms. Whenever they were at his home, he rarely touched her. He only ever did so when they were alone.“Someone might see,” she said.“Let them fucking see. You’re all mine?”“You’re not repulsed by that?”“No.”“Then yes,” Maya said. “I’m all yours.” She didn’t know why she said that. She
“It has been a long day.” He sighed.“Did I hear that you were having some difficulty?”“Yeah, it would seem the attic is a bit of a problem. Lots of old wires, and some of the roof is a little unstable. Years of neglect will do that. At the moment it doesn’t leak, but I think it would only be a matter of time before it does.” He sighed. “I’m working on preventing that from happening.”“I get it. This house is turning into a labor of love. Are you sure it’s worth it?” she asked.“I’m sure. I have no plans to go anywhere.”“But I’ve seen you looking at your bike,” Maya said. “You’re not thinking about jumping on that thing and running away?”“Never. I’m not running from you. Not now. Not ever.”He was pretty sure he saw a smile dance across her lips. He didn’t point it out as he didn’t want her to feel self-conscious. In the past few weeks they had come a long way, but he didn’t want to spoil what they had built. Even though he wanted to go further. That kiss had been freaking … everyt
The door of the shower opened and Maya opened her eyes to find the man she’d been thinking about, standing in front of her. His gaze was on her. He was naked.“I didn’t hear you come in,” she said.“Tell me to leave, Maya. Tell me to get the fuck out of your room and leave, because if you don’t, I don’t think I’ll be able to leave.”She licked her lips. “And what if I don’t want you to leave?”He took a step toward her. “Then I don’t leave and I finally have what is mine.”He wasn’t touching her. His body was so heavily muscled and covered in ink. She couldn’t resist looking down the length of his body and as she did, she noticed his long, stiff dick. Luke was aroused.“And I finally get what's mine,” she said, closing the distance between them.Maya didn’t know where she found the confidence to do what she did, but she tilted her head back, looked him in the eye, and she didn’t want him to leave.His hands went to the base of her back, then down to cup her ass, squeezing her cheeks a
He was so close to just fucking her hard and fast until he reached his own orgasm, but he held himself back, giving her time to go over the peak. But the moment it was too much, he pulled his fingers away.Grabbing her hips, he used the wall for leverage and started slowly to pump in and out of her, taking his time, working her cunt, until she was moaning his name and begging him for more. There was only so much control he had, he’d denied them this for way too long, and now he finally knew what true pleasure was with a mate. He came, flooding her womb, filling her with his fertile seed.Make her pregnant.He wanted everything with Maya—a life, a family, the pack. He wanted it all. Seconds passed and he ran his hands all over her body, breathing her in.“That was incredible,” Maya said, smiling up at him.“That’s because you’re incredible.”“You’re just saying that,” she said.He chuckled. “No, I’m not, trust me.”She growled. “Does that mean you’re comparing me to the other women you’
Two Weeks LaterHer parents had nearly caught them so many times. Even this morning, Luke had no choice but to sneak out of her bedroom. Her father had been there waiting and Maya had been on the other side, listening.“Luke, are you coming out of my daughter’s bedroom?”“No, er, I’m just about to knock. She wanted a wake-up call.”“That’s not like Maya,” her father said.“She’s been working very hard.”And while her parents were out at night, she and Luke had been making up for lost time. That was her morning wake-up call.She had been so worried. The last two weeks were like a crazy dream. They spent every waking moment together, or at least as much as possible. Once they were at his home, it was hard for them to be alone. There were so many workers, and Luke was on hand for everything. As for her, she worked in the garden, and knowing that Luke was jealous of Jordan, she kept her distance from her friend, so he wasn’t uncomfortable. Once all the workers were gone, it was just the t
“Because I want to take you for a ride, that’s why.” He took her hand.“I’m not sure this is a good idea.”“You’ve got to have a little faith in me, baby,” he said. “Come on.”“My parents are expecting us.”“I’ve already told them I’m taking you out. I want you to relax and the only way I’m going to do that is getting you away for a while.”She wanted to tell him no, that she didn’t need to leave town. But the moment she looked at his bike, she couldn’t deny the fascination or the temptation.“Are you sure it’s safe?” she asked.“Of course it is. I wouldn’t do anything to put your life at risk.” He pulled her in close, running his hands all over her body. “I want to share this with you, Maya.”She wanted to share everything with him as well. Licking her suddenly dry lips, she nodded her head.“I did get you this,” he said, holding up a helmet.She shook her head and held up her hands. “Hell, no. I’m not wearing that thing. You are not taking me out on the open road for me to be locked
He stepped toward her and stroked her hair. “What I’m saying is I want to tell your parents. I want the whole pack to know you’re my mate. My life is here with you. It’s not out on the road. I want to make a family with you. I want it all with you.”“Are you sure?”“Yes, I’m sure.”He kissed her again and this time, he felt her reach for his jeans, then tear them from him.Two could play this game. Within seconds, he had her clothes torn and on the ground. Taking her to the floor, Maya shoved him hard, rolling him to his back and she stared down at him.“I win.”He grabbed her hips, lifting her up. He heard her yelp but then he had her on her knees. His grip tightened at the back of her neck as he slowly stroked the other down her back, curving around her ass, and then cupping her pussy. She was so slick. She arched up as he plunged two fingers inside her. He twisted his fingers and pressed his thumb against her clit.“Luke!” His name spilled from her lips in a pleasured gasp and he l
Jordan frowned. “So he what? Rejected you?”She nodded.“Holy shit, you’re kidding, right?”“I’m not kidding. For five years, he and I knew what we meant to each other, but nothing ever happened. He’s still a little uncomfortable with my age.”“Okay, that makes no sense. Mates are like the most important thing.”She shrugged. “We didn’t grow up the way he did. He doesn’t know how packs work. It’s still new to him.”Jordan rubbed at his temple. “Okay, fine. I can sort of not understand that, but aside from that, you two are now mates. I mean, you stink of him.”“Stop it.”“You do. So I’m guessing the whole rejection thing is on the back burner, so why haven’t you told anyone?”Maya sighed. “Because, what if he doesn’t want to stay? What if he wants to leave again? What if he can’t be part of a pack? I don’t want to get hurt.” She shrugged.“And what if hewantsto stay? What if he never wants to leave? What if he wants to start a family, be part of a pack for the first time in his life?”
