Heat and Rut
“It’s my heat. It’s bad.”
“Shit,” he said, his voice low. “Let me in, Delilah. I can help.”
“No!” I said, but my body wanted him so bad. I slid to the floor, my hands between my legs, trying to stop the ache. “Mmm,” I moaned, unable to help it.
Then I heard Derek’s voice, sharp and rough. “Matthew, what’s going on?” he said, his footsteps heavy.
“It’s Delilah,” Matthew said. “She’s in heat. It’s strong, Dad.”
