Everyone stood except for Jack, who stayed on the couch next to Stevie. Samuel stared at the two of them as Bodey started to lead me down the hall toward the stairs and our room.

Bodey detoured to Samuel and patted him on the shoulder.Go get some rest.

Someone needs to watch her.Samuel frowned.

I wanted to tell him that wasn’t true, but to be fair, if I were him, I wouldn’t trust my sister either.Jack will stay close to her.

“You staying here?” Samuel asked Jack directly.

“Yeah, I figure I’ll make sure none of the queen’s minions come back while you all are asleep.” Jack shrugged. “You know, with the queen, king, and crown heir all living in one house.”

See? I tugged on Samuel’s arm, urging him to follow us upstairs.It’ll be fine.

He winced, still sore from his injuries, and then relented, the three of us heading to our rooms. Inside ours, Bodey shut and locked the door.

I didn’t hesitate to crawl into bed, and soon, he was sliding under the covers beside me. His hands slid under my shirt, and he spooned me.

Our bond sizzled as the heat from earlier flooded through us. I arched against him, desperate for him to touch me.

After seeing him in so much pain, followed by our argument, and then everything that just happened downstairs, I needed to connect with him again.

He growled as one of his hands inched down the boxers I was wearing while the other one cupped my breast. My breath caught as his fingers delved between my folds, causing me to arch against him again.

I love how you respond to me,he linked as his fingers slipped inside me and his mouth lowered to my neck. His other hand caressed my nipple, causing the buzzing to intensify and cloud my head.

His thumb rubbed my spot as he moved his fingers in and out. Between that, the wonderful graze of his teeth and his tongue on my neck, and how he stroked my breasts, I came unglued in minutes.

“Bodey, I need to touch you,” I begged.

“Nope. This is your reward for keeping your head on straight earlier.” He chuckled as he bit into my neck.

An orgasm rocked through me, and he held me tight, continuing to work my body. When I shivered, he released me, rolling me onto my back.

He stripped me slowly, taking his time, running his hands over my skin. Goose bumps followed wherever he touched. When I lay naked in front of him, his eyes glowed, taking in every inch of me.You’re so damn beautiful.

Hmmm.I tapped my chin and smiled.I wonder if you are. I can’t tell with all that material hiding you.

He laughed, the sound better than any song I’d ever heard, and then quickly removed his clothes.Is that better?

Marginally,I teased, taking in every inch of him—his six-pack, his muscular chest, and the trail of hair that led to my very happy place.

Hey, my eyes are up here.He winked.

That they are.I could easily get lost in the indigo of his eyes. They let me see his soul, and his long lashes and sculpted cheekbones were the icing on the cake. I kissed him, and he growled as he moved between my legs and pressed against my entrance.

I shifted my hips, helping him slide inside me in one quick thrust, making me whole.

He hissed.I wish we never had to stop doing this.

Sounds like a plan to me.My hands dug into his back, urging him faster.

Wrapping my legs around his waist, I reveled as our bodies worked in rhythm. Need clenched inside me, but I wasn’t ready to be done. “On your back.”

He eagerly lifted me, obeying, and when I straddled him, he somehow hit deeper. I threw my head back as he cupped my breasts, heightening the pleasure that was building in my body.

I rode him desperately, the sensations more intense than ever. His hands grabbed my hips as he tried to shove even deeper. His body shuddered, and I could feel his orgasm take hold.

My wolf howled, and I leaned forward, biting into his neck again, claiming him once more, as my pleasure flooded our connection. Our bliss melded as our love for one another swirled between us. He groaned in completion, and my body shuddered in ecstasy.
