“This will be over too soon,” he curses.

The water shuts off as I apply suction, then he’s pulling me up by my armpits.His mouth presses over mine, hard and dominant. I sink into the kiss, wanting more.

Dex rips away from my lips before I’m ready. “You make me lose all control.”

“I want you to lose control,” I tell him truthfully.I can tell from the set of his shoulders he doesn’t hear me. Biting my lip, I eye the door. “You’ve kept me waiting, Dex. It’s your turn to chase.”

Before he knows what I’m doing, I leap out the shower door and scramble from the bathroom.

“Nova.”

Dex growling my name as though he’s about to toss me over his knee is the sexiest thing I’ve ever heard. He hates it when he thinks I’m not properly dressed for this cold cabin.Oops.

“Do something about it, alpha,” I goad him, racing out of the bedroom.

The thunder of his footsteps causes a scream to bubble from my throat, the sound laced with giddy excitement.

“Little wolf, you better run because when I find you, you’ll be mine.”

That’s what I’m after, alpha.

Dex makes me feel like an omega, as though it’s safe to let him take control. I want Dex to let his alpha loose. I crave cementing the physical connection between us. He can give me what I need if he lets himself.

I drip on the floor as I run down the hallway, looking over my shoulder. My nipples pebble in the cold air. Slick slides down my legs, and my perfume is like a beacon, billowing around me. I skid into the living room, looking at my options.

Dex’s thundering footsteps are on my tail. “I can smell you, little wolf.”

His hand darts along my side, and I hop over the couch. The shriek I let out is all omega as I tumble back to my feet. I dart to the landing and twist gracelessly up the stairs, knocking the shit out of my side.I look over my shoulder, and the thundering alpha isn’t far behind. His eyes glow silver with his wolf, and my omega wants to bare her neck.

“Looks like you’re about to get exactly what you’ve been asking for,” he growls, lunging for me.

I slip from his grasp and scramble on the stairs, crawling on my hands and knees.

His big body cages me in, his heavy weight pressing me into the wood.

I squirm, and his teeth scrape my neck.

“Stay very still.” He sounds as if shards of glass are stuck in his throat, and I know I’m dealing with his alpha now.

My core clenches. “Make me.”

Chapter 30

Dex

“Is that what you want, little omega? For me to take what’s mine?” I pin her in place beneath me, a hand gripping the back of her neck.

She perfumes in answer, her apple and cinnamon tickling my nose and making my cock jerk.

My free hand finds her dripping slit, and I tease her with the tips of my fingers. The feel of her slickness makes me growl, the words torn from my chest. “Is this all for me, sweet girl? Did you like our game of chase?”

“Yesss! Alpha, please,” she begs.

My body vibrates with the need to claim her and sink my teeth into her neck. I settle for tasting her. Looping a hand around her waist, I pull her to her knees before settling her on the stair above and burying my face between her legs.

She goes wild as I flick my tongue into her weeping pussy. She tastes so fucking sweet I can’t get enough. I’m desperate, sucking and licking up her honey until she’s riding my face.

“Alpha,” she whimpers.
