Page 4 of Dragon Shifter's Captive Princess

I don’t know what to say right now but I do know that I don’t care so much. It scares me a little bit because I don’t want to let her get away from me but I knew that I didn’t want to stop it. If anything, I’m going to end up making her mine entirely.

“So, why did you come in here?” She asks me again, tilting her head to the side, “I would have thought that you would have left. I thought that you did.”

“I wanted to see you.” I explain, wondering if she is going to believe that, “and I kind of thought that you would like seeing me as well, Rowena. I mean, didn’t you feel the pull?”

“I did.” She agrees, and now she is looking really intrigued by what I’m saying, “but what does that mean? Is it a shifter thing?”

“You’re my fated mate.” I explain to her, feeling really weird about it now, “You’re the one that I am destined to be with. And that is why we are both feeling the pull because we both know that we are meant to be with the other. I’m sure you understand.”

She is looking at me with wide eyes and I’m sure that she is trying to make sense of what I’m saying. I’m trying to do the right thing and I’m hoping that she is going to believe me because I really want her to be mine.

“I believe you.” She suddenly responds, and it makes my heart soar in my chest because it feels like utter perfection right now, “and truthfully, I don’t know what is going to happen but I do know that I need you by my side if you’ll have me.”

I don’t know why but I feel a sudden boost of confidence as I watch her, “would it be okay if I end up staying with you tonight? I kind of feel like wanting to. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything.”

She hesitates, probably trying to decide if it is a good idea or not but I couldn’t be sure what she was going to decide. Truthfully, I wouldn’t have been able to blame her if she told me to take a hike but she nodded her head.

Heading into the bathroom, she closes the door behind herself and I’m left alone again.

Stripping down to my boxers, I at least leave those on because I don’t want to scare her too much. I want to be sure that when we do make love, that she is going to be okay with everything that I do to her.

I want her to want me.

I want her to beg for me.

I want her to be writhing with pleasure beneath me as I take her.

But that is going to take time and right now, time is something that is going to have to wait. I don’t know if it is going to be easy but I do know that I’m going to do it.

I just hope that maybe if something else happens, it’ll be alright. Because I want her already and I care about her…

I just need to do this the right way.

Chapter Four

Rowena

Stepping out of the bathroom, my breath hitches a little bit when I see Oakley lying in my bed, making me feel a little odd as I look at him. This pulsing need erupts inside of me, tempting me to do more but I don’t know if it’ll be alright.

I’m a Princess and I can’t give into my desires because I could end up doing a lot more with him. I think that the minute that I make him mine, I am never going to let him go and I’m going to make sure that he will be alright.

“You sure make yourself comfortable.” I tease him, seeing how he looks up at me with a smirk on his face, “I kind of didn’t realize that you were going to be lying in my bed and everything. It is a good thing the door is locked.”

“Don’t worry, I would hear them coming before anything else.” He assures me, and he is patting the bed next to him as he watches me, “I can promise you that we are going to be safe and nobody is going to figure this out. Not unless we want them to.”

He is watching me with an intensity in his gaze that was enough to make me feel really weird and I couldn’t be sure whatwas about to happen here. I did know that I was going to enjoy it and no matter what, I was going to make sure that he would be mine.

“Well, I think that it’s going to be time to go to bed soon.” I agree with him, nervously licking my bottom lip as I’m watching him, “So I’m going to get into bed and go to sleep.”

I didn’t realize how nervous I could get until I’m crawling into bed next to him, feeling a little weird about it. This intense feeling burns within me, tempting me to do a lot more.

His heat is radiating off of him, making me feel really warm and like everything feels good. But I’m more than just a little surprised when he pulls me closer, wrapping his arms around me as he buries his face into my hair.

It is enough to make my heart skip a beat. I feel too perfect, like this feeling inside of me is enough to make me want so much more. It was an intense feeling, like nothing I had ever felt before.

I felt like I was going to be his and it wasn’t going to matter. I don’t even know if he feels the same way but I did know that I was going to enjoy being close to him. I wanted him so badly, but I had to hold back these desires.

I didn’t want to end up ruining everything just because I didn’t want to keep it in my pants.
