บททั้งหมดของ The Maverick Pride Tales: บทที่ 161 - บทที่ 167

Cole could tell the second Megan started overthinking what they were about to do, and fuck, but he was a selfish prick, cause he leaned forward, cupped her cheeks, and kissed her again. She tasted divine. Better than anything. Even better than peanut butter and chocolate, and those were his two favorite fucking things in the world.Shiiit. I should let her go. She’s not mine.Mine.No. Not mine. I’m such a prick for doing this.But he couldn’t stop. She deserved more, so much more, but at least he could make her feel good for a little while. Yeah, he could do that. He needed to. At this point, it was like a biological imperative. Drinking from her lips, he swallowed her down, taking everything she gave and more.Good woman. Sweet woman. Sexy woman.He could not imagine someone like her needing the help of a matchmaker to find a mate. Why hadn’t someone from her Pride just swooped in and made her his? Were all male felines idiots? Then again, Sheila’s mate was a Lion, but ma

Shit.It was already half-past three, and Megan hadn’t shown up. Cole was tearing his fucking hair out like some pansy ass bitch, wearing out the rubber mats covering that part of the garage floor with his incessant fucking pacing.Where was she? Was she standing him up?He growled in frustration. He knew he’d fucked up, playing hot and cold with her, but that wasn’t his fault. Fine. Maybe it was. But what the hell was he supposed to do? He’d never felt his way about another person before in his entire life.“You wanna stop all the fucking pacing, dude?” Phoenix growled from where he squatted on the floor, adding air to the back tire of his favorite hog.“She’s not coming.”“Who’s not coming? Oh! The tall girl from the bar—ahh!”Cole had his Pack mate by the throat and off the floor in the bat of an eyelash. Megan wasn’t just some fucking tall girl. She was perfect. And his Wolf really didn’t like Phoenix or anyone talking about her size. Like at all.“Um, hello?”Col

The next few days sped by in a haze of steamy nights and laughter filled days. Cole liked having Megan with him. As in he really, really liked it. Being with her was a whole new level of commitment he didn’t even realize was missing from his life. He’d asked her to move in, but she’d signed a monthly rental agreement and had three weeks left. But she’d said yes. and that meant everything.“Hey, lily, when am I gonna meet your people?” he asked.He parked carefully, making sure she had room to open the door on the crowded sidewalk. Megan didn’t answer until they got out of his truck and ambled up the stairs to her rental. She didn’t seem to like talking about her family or her Pride, but he understood little of the reason.“I thought you knew some of the Pride already?” she asked.“I’ve met Hunter and his mate. Brayden and Jessica, too. But what about your parents? Your siblings?”“Oh,” she replied, pausing on the steps. “I hadn’t thought of that. Do your parents know about me

Megan read the letter from her brother twice. She set it aside with a small smile as she opened the gift he’d sent her from where he was working overseas building housing for Shifters in South America who’d lost their homes during an earthquake. He worked for Hunter with Maverick Development now, and the Neta was doing his best to turn her baby bro into a man.It was true some wounds took a long time to heal, but she was proud of him. She couldn’t wait till he came to visit. She wanted to hear all his stories about his trip. Matthew had a lot of growing up to do, and Hunter was a great mentor.Cole would need some time before welcoming her little brother, of course. Her overprotective mate was still pissed off at Matthew for everything he’d ever put her through, and she couldn’t say she blamed him. After all, the should have felt the same way if anyone had hurt him.“What do you have there?” Cole asked, coming up behind her.He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her head and sh
