I rub my thumb back and forth along her cheek. “What does that mean?”
“I don’t know.” Her nostrils flare. At the same time, her eyes flash blue for the briefest moment—so quickly I can’t even be sure I saw it.
“It’s all right, baby girl.” My purr sounds, and I tuck her into my chest, rubbing my hand in soothing circles down her back. “It’s all right. We’re together. We’ll figure out the rest.”
“Fennik.” My name on her lips is stripped down to its essence. It’s a plea that means,Alpha, please.
My wolf charges to the surface, desperate and possessive. The shower fills with the scent of her need and the tangy bite of citrus. The citrus is new, getting stronger every day. My pheromones answer, my alpha’s dominance rising to stake my claim.
She’s hurting, and she needs to reestablish the connection between us, for me to remind her who I am to her. I need it too. My human instincts are replaced by my wolf’s need to fill my mate and mark her with my scent. It feels necessary to prove to her that this won’t change us. She’smine, made for me down to her soul, and nothing will stop me from giving her what she needs.
My hand clutches her throat, and I devour her mouth. The kiss is an extension of my possession, hungry and raw. I suck her tongue and claim her mouth until she’s gasping for air.
“Yes, please.” Her back hits the shower wall, her hands greedily grabbing for my cock.
I flip her around, pinning her with my weight. Her hands splay against the tile, her shoulders dropping some of the tension she carries.
“I know exactly what you need, little dove. You crave my cock. You need me to remind you who you belong to,” I growl.
She gasps as I nip her neck. “Prove we’re real. Make me remember.”
“No matter what happened in those woods, you’re mine,” I promise.
My cock nudges against the seam of her ass, my hand twisting around her front to cup her mound. I ease the tip of my finger through her slick, spreading her and circling her clit. She’s dripping, making needy sounds that rip my remaining control to shreds.
My growl rumbles against her neck, and she shivers as I grind the heel of my hand against her clit. I push her legs farther apart with my knee, nudging my cock through her slick in a smooth back and forth that teases her lips and drenches my cock.
“I need you,” she demands breathlessly.
I give her what she craves, surging home with a deep thrust. She bucks against me, and I slap her ass—hard. Randi melts for me. “That’s it, baby girl, take my cock.”
“Harder. Please. I want to feel you everywhere,” she begs.
“You need to feel how I stuff you full?” I nip along the column of her neck, my wolf surging to share my skin.
Her answering moan goes straight to my balls. I steady her with a firm grip on her hips, pounding into her in smooth thrusts. It’s a ruthless claiming that makes her legs tremble and those sweet, needy whimpers spill from her lips.
“You’re gonna take my knot, aren’t you, baby girl? Tell me. Let me hear how much you want your alpha’s cock.”
“Yes, fuck,” Randi moans.
“Say it,” I grit the words through clenched teeth.
“I want you to fuck me hard and fill me with your knot.”
“Who, baby girl?”
“Alpha,” she murmurs. “I want my alpha’s knot.”
“That’s my good girl. Your pussy is so sweet, squeezing me so tight.” I swat her ass, then grab her cheeks and watch with satisfaction as my slick shaft gets swallowed by her tight heat.
Even over the pounding of the shower, the wet slapping sounds of the two of us fill the air. Her back arches. I smatter open-mouthed kisses along her spine before I collar her neck and bring her flush against me. My other hand wraps around her, and I strum her clit until her pussy spasms around me in a grip so tight it strangles my cock.
“That’s it. Give it all to me. Come for your alpha,” I groan.
Her orgasm drenches my knot, squeezing me so fucking tightly.
“Now you’re going to take this knot for your alpha like a good little omega. Let me fill you with my cum and mark you as mine.”
