He thought about everything that he did to get here, the sacrifices that he’d made, all the fucking pain that he’d gone through, and when his thoughts turned to Elizabeth, he found himself thinking about his angel instead. He thought about the way that Jill teased him, the way his body caught on fire from a simple brush of her fingertips, and how his breath caught when he saw her, and realized that Elizabeth never made him feel that way and-

He hated her for it.

Determined to destroy this hold that she had on him, Logan forced himself to focus on what he had to do next as he opened the bathroom door and-

Sighed heavily when he saw the small mound hiding beneath his covers. She really was too fucking adorable for words, Logan thought as he hesitated by the door, telling himself that he should send her back to her room, but…

Fuck it.

Too tired to really care, Logan turned the light off before he climbed into bed. Releasing a sigh, he closed his eyes only to feel his lips twitch when he felt the covers rustle seconds before the small bundle curled up next to him moved closer. A moment later, Emma wrapped her tiny arms around his arm before she pressed her forehead against his arm and slowly exhaled seconds before he felt her relax. Within minutes, she was fast asleep and-

He was releasing a pained grunt when Caleb climbed onto the bed and climbed over him. With a grumble, a grunt, and a satisfied sigh, the little boy dove beneath the covers and curled up next to him. Definitely not going to let them soften him, Logan told himself, only to sigh and dutifully turn his head so that he could kiss the top of Caleb’s head when the little boy grumbled, “Goodnight kissy,” against his arm.

CHAPTER 24

Layman Pack House

Pennsylvania

One Month Later…

“Mo ghrá,” Kale managed to get out on a moan when he felt his incredibly beautiful mate kiss her way down his stomach and-

Tore a groan from him when her soft lips brushed against the tip of his cock, causing his fangs to rip through his gums in record time seconds before he felt her small, warm hand wrap around his cock and slowly stroked him as her lips parted and guaranteed that he wasn’t leaving this bed tonight. He raised himself up on his elbows so that he could watch his mate push the sheet down as she followed the move with her mouth, slowly sliding her mouth down his cock.

So fucking good, Kale thought on a groan as she slowly stroked his cock in time with her mouth, sending pleasure throughout his body as he dropped back down on the bed. Before his back hit the mattress, he was reaching for her. He grabbed hold of her hips and picked her up, careful not tointerrupt what she was doing to his cock and pulled her over him so that her knees were straddling his head.

When he saw the white cotton panties outlining the soft curves of her lips, Kale leaned up and kissed the soft material and tore a soft moan from the one woman that he couldn’t live without. As he kissed a path over her lips, Kale reached up and hooked his fingers in the waistband of her panties and pulled until the soft cotton material tore apart and dropped away, revealing the soft lips that he couldn’t wait to bury his cock between.

He continued kissing a path along her slit, keeping his kisses teasing, knowing just how much she liked it. When she spread her legs further apart a moment later, causing the soft lips to part, Kale pressed a kiss against her swollen little clit, earning a moan around his cock. He would never be able to get enough of her, Kale thought as he traced her clit with his tongue before gently taking it between his lips and-

“Kale,”Ashley moaned as his cock slipped free from her lips. He ran his hands over her back and ass as he took his time licking her, alternating between teasing her clit and sliding his tongue inside her while she was forced to rest her forehead against his thigh as she moaned his name.

When she began moving her hips, desperate to ride his tongue, Kale licked her swollen little clit one last time before he picked her up and gently placed her on the bed next to him and-

“Mo ghrá,” Kale groaned when Ashley immediately climbed onto his lap, the move causing her soft, wet pussy to spread open over his cock.

“I missed you,” Ashley whispered as she leaned over him and took his lips in a teasing kiss while she shifted to get more comfortable, the move causing her swollen little clit to brush against the underside of his cock.

“How much?” Kale asked, running his hands down her back to her ass and gave it a gentle squeeze, letting her know just how much he liked the way she moved.

“Enough to overlook the fact that you forgot to pick up the cheesecake that you promised me,” Ashley whispered as she moved, gently rolling her hips so that her clit teased the spot just beneath the tip of his cock.

“I didn’t forget,” Kale said as he broke off the kiss and began kissing his way down her throat. “It’s in the fridge downstairs.”

“Did you remember to put it on my shelf?” Ashley asked, making his lips twitch as he slid his hand between their bodies and cupped her breast.

“I remembered,” Kale promised her, not bothering to mention that he’d also written her name on the box to ensure that they didn’t have a repeat of what happened last week when he left the box of donuts he bought for her on the counter. Not after Ashley stood there, sniffling sadly while her bottom quivered as she looked from the half-eaten donut in Drew’s hand to the half-empty bakery box on the counter until the shifter broke and ran out to get her more donuts.

She was so fucking kind and incredibly sweet, Kale thought as he gently squeezed the large breast in his hand while his mate continued moving. He couldn’t seem to get enough of her. Morning, noon, and night, he wanted her and when he wasn’t with her, he couldn’t stop thinking about her. She was everything that he didn’t realize that he was missing in his life and so much more.

Christ, he loved her more than anything.

“God, that feels so good,” Ashley whispered on a moan as she kept moving, every roll of her hips causing his cock to strain against her, desperate for more.

When she rolled her hips back all the way until her soft pussy was teasing the base of his cock in the familiar move that toldhim everything that he needed to know, Kale released her breast and slid his hand down her side, over her ass and joined his other hand in gently squeezing as Ashley rolled her hips forward and-

Tore a groan from him when she took her time, causing her wet pussy to rub the underside of his cock before the move placed her core against the tip of his cock. With a soft moan, Ashley began pushing back, slowly taking the tip of his cock inside of her as her mouth found his.
