When Mates Collide | Questions And Half Baked Answers
Bonnie lifted her eyebrows, a habitual response, but was curious about what he’d just said. “What is your weakness, Nate?” she asked. He held her eyes for a heated moment. “I have only one.” She felt warmth pool out from her heart and other lower places. “Which is? Or won’t you tell me?” “Another time,” he said thickly. “To red wine, red meat, and red dresses.” A flattered laugh softly fell from her lips and she tapped her glass to his. “Don't forget handsome imposing men.” A surprised grin appeared on Nate's face but vanished quickly as a food runner interrupted them, carrying the most beautifully arranged plate of crab cakes laid on a bed of sautéed kale. As he set it down, the electricity calmed between them and Michelle nervously picked up her menu and asked, “What will you be having?” Nate looked at her like he knew she was putting a wall between them with that leather-bound list, but he was respectful enough not to mention it. “Let me see. I’ll probably have Filet. What ab

Bonnie cringed as Joan kept booming in her ears, "Where did you meet him? Was it online? Oh please, Bonnie don't tell me - "“No! I’m not online dating. I met him on your birthday at that club. Well, I kind of did. But then afterward…” She quickly explained how she caught her on Joan's panties at the club, lied about giving him her business card, and how he tracked her down and showed up at her apartment building the next day. She told Joan truthfully that she'd sent him away that day thinking him a stalker, but that his friends had interviewed her to get them back in the same room together and now here they were on a date. She kept out the part about the near-rape, him saving her, and the fact that she had a suspicion that he was supernatural. A werewolf. Plus, she didn’t want Joan to think she was dating a killer. Even though she was? “So, let me get this right. You’re calling me because you’re terrified you’ll jump on his lap and start grinding away right there at the dinner table
When Mates Collide | Unexpected Interrogation
Bonnie chuckled at the accuracy of Nate's awareness, and they ate their meal chatting easily about different topics. She loved hearing his voice as he explained why he loved living Downtown over mid-city, that he liked the grittier aspect of the area. Underneath their conversation she was very, very aware that he just expressed an interest in taking her somewhere else in a hurry. She had visions of his private bed and what it must be like, or maybe the back of that limo, and more than once he paused like he could sense she was turned on. The heat in his eyes was palpable and he kept glancing down as though he could see through the table to her dampened panties. As soon as their plates were cleared, Nate asked for the check. She played with the napkin on her lap to keep her mind off what was about to happen. All she wanted was for him to sweep his arm across the table, throw everything onto the floor, and lay her down right there and now. “You smell amazing,” he said, thickly. She g
When Mates Collide | Tasted Like Love
As the car door shut, Nate stared out the window, momentarily caught in what had just happened before he remembered Bonnie. Turning to her with forced casualness, he found her keenly staring at him like she knew everything. His heart slammed in his chest and he looked to the divider as Nick asked, “Where to?” “Central Park.” He heard his low voice crackle with shakiness and cleared his throat. “Thank you.” Nick nodded and met his eyes in the rearview, then pulled the car away, merging with traffic. The window rolled up to give them privacy again and Nate was grateful for the thought. But what to say to Bonnie with her looking at him like this, he had no clue. He took her hand and stared out the window, wondering what he could tell her and how much. It was a while before they got to 61st Street where the park began, and he took that time to consider the fact that he’d never revealed what he was to a human. Not since after the war. Up in the woods they had only been werewolves in the

Heat rushed through Nate and he nodded, kissing Bonnie hard on the lips before grabbing her hand and leading her back to the car so quickly she had to jog to keep up. He pulled out his phone and said, “Text Nick.” The phone’s computer voice replied, “Okay. What would you like to say to Nick?” “Come get us.” “Text sent to Nick.” By the time they arrived on 61st Street, the car was waiting with Nick at the ready. “Take us back to Ms. Bonnie’s apartment.” “Yes, sir.” Inside the car, the privacy of the large backseat drove him insane. He sat away from her, holding her hand firmly on the leather between them. He felt her looking at him and when he turned, there was worry in her eyes. “What’s wrong?” She licked her lips self-consciously. “I’m just wondering why you’re way over there.” A rueful smirk pulled at him. “If I start touching you now, I won’t be able to stop. And Nick has a way of hitting the brakes when we least expect it. I need you alone. Entirely alone.” “Oh!” A reliev

Struggling, Nate began pacing back and forth. Finally, he stopped and looked at her, resigned. A wall that hadn’t been there before was between them and she hated to see it but she had no choice but to push for the truth. “Are you sure you want to know this? It might change your view of me.” She gave him the tiniest of nods. “I’m a werewolf.” She blinked and gulped, closing her eyes with strange relief. “I thought so.” His eyebrows rose. “You did?” “Yes. Didn't I guess you were a wolf earlier?” She stayed by the door, pressing herself closer to it as though it might suddenly become pliable and warm. She needed a hug. “Yes. The growl. The way they described the body in the news. The policemen asked–” “About a wolf,” he interjected. “Right. Of course, you would deduce from all that… What do you want to know then? Now that I've confirmed my secret I'll answer any questions you have for me.” “My mind is a blank.” He stared at her. “I'm not surprised. Well, let me just clear up a few
When Mates Collide | Still Don't Want To Run?
“Whatever you want. I’m yours,” Bonnie breathed, gasping as he kissed her harder and searched her mouth with his skillful tongue. The sensations his kisses sent choked her up. She’d never been this happy in her life and as he lowered her to the bed, she ordered herself silently not to cry. She was with a supernatural being and one who seemed to have eyes only for her. The tears stopped cold from excitement as his fingernails sharpened and like razor blades, he used them to rip her dress from her body. Her lacy nude bra and panties were exposed to him and torn red fabric lay on either side like a frame. He stood up, his body lit from the side, the floor lamp dim and perfect for this moment. Every muscle had shadows. He looked like Heaven. “Do you want to keep your lingerie items?” Bonnie blinked down at her body, happy to find the shadows did nice things for her curves. Her breasts in this underwire were fabulous with her resting on her elbows and gravity doing its best to make them
When Mates Collide | Incredulous Moment
Panting, they quieted and he kissed the back of her neck and buried his face in her hair. “Marry me.” She froze. “What?” He pulled out, taking his time and lowering her to the bed so that he could face her. He held himself up on his elbow and searched her eyes. “Marry me, Bonnie. Be my wife.” She chuckled and closed her eyes, looking at him again after an incredulous moment. “You’re serious.” He nodded. “It’s our first date.” “So?” He shrugged like that meant nothing. With a fluttering heart, she pushed back a fallen lock of hair from his forehead, looking into his eyes. “I don’t believe in divorce,” she whispered. “If we were to do this, it would be for good. We’d be a team and best friends. Do whatever we had to to keep it strong, and not lose the love.” He gave her a calm, knowing smile. “I have no problem promising I can do that.” She paused, her blood racing so much she could barely speak. The crazy thing was, she believed him! Everything about the way he was looking at he
