My attention darts from his face to his cock and back again. “What do you mean? I need to go find my friends.”

He curls his lip. “Tell me what you all were doing here.”

I swallow hard. I could go with the story that we were lost. But I don’t want to lie to him. He might be a crazy, naked psychopath for all I know, but for some reason, I feel like he’s a good guy. Like I can trust him.

So, I explain that I thought we just hiking in the wilderness, but the others had some plan, involving TikTok or Instagram or something, which I wasn’t privy to.

Anger tightens his jaw, then he narrows his eyes. “You didn’t know what they were up to?”

I shake my head. “I know they’ve been cooking something up, but that’s all. My sister and I are not real close, to be honest. And I’m not friends with the others. I’m only here because it’s my sister’s bachelorette weekend—”

I stop short, because something new is flooding those beautiful brown irises—relief?

“Go on,” he says.

“I woke up this morning, and saw they were about to head off into the trees, so I decided to follow them. Then I saw…” I break off, overcome by shame. “One of them filming, while the other three knocked on your door, then let themselves in.”

He works his jaw back and forth. “You know why they were doing this?”

“No.”

He keeps on staring at me with those mesmerizing eyes. A shiver goes through me. Right now I do feel like a rabbit, caught in a car’s headlights. Or, caught in the gaze of some apex predator, more like.

“You don’t know me, do you?” he demands.

I shake my head. “Well, you look a lot like a guy I dreamed about last night.”

“You dreamed about me?”

Crap.I can’t believe I just admitted that. “Uh huh,” I mumble as my cheeks burn.

A slow smile spreads across his face, and he lets out what can only be described as a purr. A deep, growly, bear’s purr.

He takes a step toward me. “What happened in the dream?”

Oh, god.Now my cheeks are on fire. “Oh, I-I can’t remember.”

“Tell me.” He takes a second step. “It’s important.”

And now I’m staring at his cock again, which I swear is more erect than before.

“I-I’ve got to go,” I yelp.

I turn on my heel, andbolt.

“Run, little rabbit,” I mutter as my girl’s pert, round ass disappears into the trees. “It won’t be long before I catch you and claim you.” My bear is straining to go after her, of course. Strip off her clothes and claim her right on the forest floor. But I rein it in.

I’m buck naked, I remind it. Humans aren’t cool with that. They get freaked out at having conversations with guys who have their dicks out.

She kept glancing at my cock though. I hope it didn’t scare her. Wasn’t my fault that it got harder and harder the more she looked at it.

And now, it’s hard as a rock. Automatically, I wrap my hand around it. Her nipples were hard, too, poking sweetly through the fabric of her hiking shirt. And she kept running the tip of her tongue across her lips.

She’s attracted to me. Of course, she is, because she’s my mate.
