JelenaMy body shudders as pleasure courses through me. Nothing has ever been this good. Running my fingers through Traeger’s silky hair as he lays his head on my stomach, I close my eyes and take a few deep breaths. After a moment, I rise up and look into his beautiful gray eyes, kiss his beautiful lips, and whisper. “It’s my turn now.” Traeger’s eyes sharpen with desire as I push him onto his back and straddle his waist. Traeger stretches his beautiful body across my bed and groans when I run my hands across his carved chest and pull at his shirt. “Take it off,” I whisper. Traeger reaches behind his head to remove his t-shirt, exposing his chiseled abs to my hungry eyes. Leaning down, I kiss his collarbone and work my way down to his nipples and abs. My hands wander his body, memorizing every curve and muscle until I finally reach the top of his jeans. Traeger releases a ragged breath when I rub the bulge between his l

 JelenaI can feel the air caressing my body as the morning light shines through my window. The strong need from the night before is just a controlled hum now. It’s as if my body was waiting for Traeger’s caress. I rub my leg up and down my sheet, recalling last night’s erotic episode, and I can’t help but wish he would have stayed. I know that I want to make love to him. No more small touches. I need his body riding mine to an ecstatic release. The mere thought of his powerful body taking mine makes dew collect at the juncture of my thighs. I ache for him so much. It’s surreal how the mere fact that he’s a Lycan does not bother me. Hell, it’s surreal that he’s a Lycan at all.Letting out a resigned sigh, I rise from the bed and dress. I put on a light yellow, sleeveless summer dress with no bra and flip-flops. My family should be up by now. This time my dad and Mr. Morgan are preparing breakfast. And my mom

JelenaTraeger and I were so close to making love. Now I’m worried about what might be happening at the Institute. He tried to reassure me, but I know that something big must be going down. His men wouldn’t have been so nervous otherwise. I get the feeling that they're not easily shaken. Especially considering their training. Rubbing my temple, I head to the house. There’s no point in thinking about this too much.Once I get to the house, I see that everyone is preparing to go camping. My dad is the first one to notice my presence. “Hey, pumpkin, I’m glad you’re back from your walk. Your mom was ready to go and find you.” Just then, my mom comes out looking upset. “Where have you been, young lady? I told you not to be out too long, and it’s been two hours since you left.” I shake my head in exasperating at her exaggerated tone and stride to the SUV’s passenger door. “Geez, mom, I just got distracte

JelenaThe shower’s cabin is surprisingly sturdy. It looks like a shower you’d find at a gym. It’s wooden on the outside, but inside there are dark tiles and a wall with three large showerheads. To my right, there is an area with wooden storage counters. And beneath the shower faucets, there are waist-high wooden benches attached to the wall. Resting my towel and bags on the counter, I strip off my sweaty clothes and turn on a nearby shower. To my surprise, the water is warm. Closing my eyes, I lean my hands on the wall and throw my head back, letting the water run through my body. It feels so good.Suddenly, two arms wrap around my naked waist and pull me against a solid male chest. Startled, I turn my head in surprise. “Traeger, you found me.” Giving me a smoldering smile, Traeger buries his face in my neck and inhales deeply. It’s so sweet and sexy. I’ve never had a guy hold me with so much reverence. He makes me feel like t

 JelenaCamping was fun. Especially my shower with Traeger. I’m glad to get back at the house, though. The fridge was empty, so everyone decided to go to the market. I bowed out because I couldn’t handle another minute with the little devils. They were driving me crazy. I thought my mom would argue, but she didn’t. I guess she understands that Jesse and Ricky can be quite the handful. Throughout the day, I keep reaching for my phone, then remember that Traeger has it. After what he told me about the Institute, I worry about what will happen to him and his pack. Ever since he told me what he is, I’ve felt like I’m in the middle of a science fiction novel.When I get to my bedroom, I lay my bag on the floor and throw myself on the bed. I’m still a little sore from the night before. Making love with Traeger was amazing. I had never felt so needy in my life. I miss him so much right now. I wish he were here. I touch the mark
