Page 77 of Wolf Bitten

When my mouth landed at the base of his neck, where his pulse pounded against my lips, the urge to bite him stole my breath. My mouth opened of its own accord, and my teeth raked his skin as the friction inside my core intensified.

His breath caught, and I realized what I wanted to do.

Claim him.

Is it okay if I …I wasn’t sure how to say it, and my wolf urged me to sink my teeth into his neck. I managed to hold back, though I tasted his blood.

That should’ve disgusted me, but instead, it made the urge unbearable.

“You biting me would make me more fucking happy than I’ve ever been in my entire life,” he rasped as both hands worked my breasts. “But only if you want—”

I bit him, my teeth sinking deep. As his blood filled my mouth, somethingboltedinside me. The spot in my chest where my wolf usually lived opened and poured from me into him.

He released my breast and gently took my head, lifting it up.

Our gazes connected, his eyes glowing brighter than ever before, and he put his mouth at the base of my neck and pierced my skin.

Pleasure exploded inside me. I gasped. The sensations were more intense than ever as what felt like his ecstasy flowed into me, adding to mine. In that moment, we were truly one, and he groaned gutturally as our bodies quivered together.

Our orgasms lasted longer than I’d thought possible, the two of us gazing at one another, blood trickling down our necks, and our bodies moving in rhythm. Our love for each other mingled, making my chest feel fuller. Somehow, my love for Raffe had multiplied from biting him and marking him as my own.

When our bodies calmed, I laid my head on his chest, breathless, though he was still inside me.

He kissed my sweaty forehead, and his happiness flowed into me so forcefully that I laughed while he cuddled me in his arms.

My hair, still wet from the shower, stuck to my face, the moisture mixing with the perspiration on his chest, but I didn’t care. I wanted his scent all over me.

Wait. What?

That was something I would’ve never thought before; however, my wolf pranced proudly inside my head, and I didn’t regret thinking it for one second.

What’s that look for?He chuckled.

My face heated.It’s so weird. I never imagined loving you more, but I do. In fact, my feelings for you are so strong that I don’t find your sweat disgusting. I want to bathe in it.

Warm laughter escaped him, the sound more carefree than I’d ever heard from him, and he leaned his head back against the pillow. His chest shook so hard that I bit my tongue.

If I thought I’d been embarrassed before, nothing compared to now.Never mind.I lifted my head and glowered at him.Forget I said anything.I moved to slide off him, but his hands captured my wrists.

His face softened, though the smile was wider than ever. He said, “Hey, I’m not laughing at you. I’m just so damn happy. I’d come to terms with believing we could never havethis, and I’ve never been so ecstatic to be proven wrong.”

My body warmed at the way his hands constrained me, but I sniffed, making it clear I was trying to smell his lie.

But all I smelled was his musky scent, spicy with … arousal.

“Babe, I swear I’m not lying.” He leaned up and kissed me. “What you’re experiencing is your wolf’s influence. She wants to smell like me and wants me to smell like you so that no one questions we’re mated. And our fated-mate bond is now fully formed as intended, which allows us to feel more for each other. There’s no going back, especially now that we can sense each other’s emotions.”

My head jerked back. “Well, I mean, I feel yours more strongly now, but still.”

His brows furrowed. “You’ve been feeling every one of my emotions?”

I nodded. “Even when they’re faint. How do you think I knew how hard you’ve been struggling? I sensed it the entire time, and now I feel you as strongly as I feel myself.”

“I didn’t feel yours before, but it makes sense that I couldn’t. You hadn’t bitten me yet.” He kissed me and linked,That must be how I was able to track you when you were taken. I couldn’t nail down exactly where you were because we were only semi-connected, but I sensed the direction you were in.

Whatever it is, I need you to make love to me again.

He was already hardening inside me, never having slipped out.
