God, what was he doing? Closing his eyes, he felt his mate plastered to him and told himself what an idiot he was for worrying about things he’d have time to worry about later. Hopefully when he had convinced her to stay with him.

His eyes snapped open when she started to kiss her way down his face and neck and ground her arse into his hands. She was trying to get him to move, he growled, lifted her up, and swapped positions, so she straddled his lap.

She looked startled at his speed. Without giving her time to contemplate it, he raised her up, so the tip of his penis sat just inside her. “Ride me, honey. Let me watch those fantastic tits bounce.”

Her face turned bright red and a shy smile spread over her face as she slowly let herself fall, taking him back into her welcoming depths. Groaning, he let his hands slowly trail up her body, marveling at the feel of her smooth-as-silk skin.

Brian’s head fell back, and he shut his eyes as he reveled in all the sensations bombarding him as she moved at a leisurely pace. His eyes snapped back open as her hands moved up his body and caressed his chest, hovering over his nipples. She leaned down and licked one while circling the other with her fingers. Fuck! She was driving him insane with her slow movements and gentle explorations of his chest. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Susie, honey, I don’t know how much longer I can hold on. Your pussy is so wet. Since I saw you yesterday, I have been craving your touch and taste, but most of all I want to claim you.”

He growled, flipped her back over and laid her on his desk. He’d had enough of her slow torture. Holding her legs, he wrapped them around his waist as he moved all the way out and slammed home. Susie moaned and pushed herself to meet him, panting. She said, “More. Oh yeah, more of that.”

He grinned, picking up his pace and plunging into her hot welcoming depths. A frenzy came over him as he watched his cock plunge home again and again while his mate begged and screamed for more. The inferno built in him until he couldn’t hold it any longer. Brian touched a hand to her clit, and as he moved out one last time, he pressed down on her nub and gently rubbed. Susie bucked and yelled his name as he slammed into her. He felt her vagina walls contract as she came around him. He followed, roaring her name and pouring himself into her. Her pussy muscles squeezed tight, milking him of every last drop of his cum.

Sated, he rested over her body for a moment, satisfied for the first time in his life. His hands moved up her body. He loved the feel of her sweat-coated skin against his and the smell of their combined scent.

Groaning when she started to wiggle underneath him, he knew they had to come back to reality. Moving to the chair, Brian sat her on his lap, enjoying the quiet. He stroked her hair as he held her to him.

“So, is that how you start a work out with all your new clients?” she asked.

Brian winced at Susie’s comment before tilting her chin up so she saw his eyes when he replied, hoping she would see the truth in them.

“You, Susie, are special. I promise you I have never slept with a client before. You, honey, are the first, and will be the only.” He kissed her, putting everything into it to show her she was the only one, would be the only one from now on. He had a feeling what he’d just did with her, may bring his authenticity in doubt. So, he would just have to convince her.

Chapter Three

Oh, my God. What just happened?What had gotten into her?Okay, so Susie did know what happened as tingles from the best orgasm she’d ever had still racked her body.Shit!She’d just had the best sex of her life with her new personal trainer, who she’d only met yesterday. And he’d said he’d never been with a client before.Ha! Yeah, right. It was nice of him to say that to her, but she highly doubted, with his looks, he was telling her the truth.

Susie groaned at her stupidity for having sex with a guy she’d only meet twenty-four hours ago and doing it in his office. What the hell had happened? She never reacted to a man the way she had Brian, but as soon as his skin touched hers, her body came alive, wanting more. What was it about this man that made her heart thud and her stomach flutter?

Susie pushed on Brian’s chest and looked around the room for her clothing before frowning at the remains of her ripped bra, pants, and shirt. “What on earth am I going to wear now? I can’t go out like this. Um, please tell me the walls are sound proof?” She darted her gaze around the room again and saw that at least the door was a wooden one, and it looked good quality, so hopefully the walls were thick, because they’d been loud. “Oh God, I’m a slut. I just had sex with my personal trainer, who I only meet yesterday.”What if this was all a trick? What if the woman from yesterday was in on this?“I… Argh!” Sometimes her writer brain made her a little paranoid, but what if she was right. “I have to go. What am I going to do now? I’m going to have to find another trainer that’s for…”

She stared up at him as a rumbling interrupted her ranting. Brian watched her with eyes she would swear flashed a darker blue and glowed. She moved her hands to cover her stomach and a grizzly bear growl come out of his mouth as he started to grow. Susie jumped, almost falling, but quick as lightning he reached out and saved her, pulling her back to him.

Terrified, she wanted to scream but nothing would come out. Speechless, Susie stared at Brian, who looked normal again. Had she imagined it? She would swear he grew in height, and mass, and there was no doubt his eyes glowed. They were still glowing.Oh shit. She struggled to get free. “Let me go, please. I won’t tell anyone. I didn’t, haven’t, seen anything.” His massive hands grabbed her face, her voice came back, and she screamed as she fought to get away.

A whine escaped his lips. “I didn’t want you to see this now. I wanted to give you some time to get to know me. You have nothing to worry about. I would never hurt you. Susie, you are the safest person in the world when you’re with me. I promise you’re safe.”

She stopped partly to listen to him and also because he was so strong, she couldn’t get anywhere. Susie supposed that if he’d wanted her dead, he’d had plenty of chances.

“Fine. What do you want from me?” Oh God. An honest-to-God shifter—well, she thought he was something like that—held in her in his arms. She’d read tons of books on shifters, werecreatures, monsters, fairies, and so on. She had even written about them in her own books. Susie had thought them mythical beings, fantasies of lonely women like her, and here she was right now with a hunk straight out of her books, and she just asked him what he wanted. Groaning, she watched him raise his eyebrow.

“Ah, besides you?” His grip loosened on her and he pulled her closer. He stroked her hair. “Susie, you are very special to me.” She snorted and his hand paused for a moment before he continued, “As you can see, I’m not human.”

“No shit, Sherlock,” Susie couldn’t help her snarky come back.

He pushed her back and glared at her. “Are you going to let me explain?”

She stared at his gorgeous eyes, perfect olive skin, and the most kissable lips she’d ever seen and sighed. “All right, all right you can talk, but I just want to add I feel like an idiot for not noticing straight away. I mean you are way too good looking.” She had no idea where her newfound confidence came from.

He chuckled and kissed her forehead. “Oh, Susie, I can see I’m going to have my hands full with you.” She raised her eyebrow and started to talk, but his finger over her mouth stopped her. “My turn, remember?”

She nodded and he pulled her closer. She took a deep breath in and relaxed against him. He smelled good, like honey and sandalwood.

****

Brian took a deep breath of her honey and mango scent before he tried to explain everything. “You’re my mate. I am a bear shifter, a grizzly bear. My grandparents moved from America to Australia one hundred and fifty years ago. There are quite a few different shifters. We don’t have the same numbers as humans, because to have shifter children you have to have them with your true mate or a shifter of the same kind, even then it’s not guaranteed you’ll get shifter children. Not many settle just so they can have kids. Most wait for their true mate, their soul mate.”

He looked down at her and could see all the questions in her eyes, so he tried explaining better. “Susie, I know you are my true mate. I could smell you yesterday as soon as I entered the office.”
