Sounds like a plan, but then we’ve got to eat.
His tongue slid into my mouth, and once again, we got lost in each other and the moment.
I managedto talk him into two more rounds of sex, but he finally forced us to get up. We took another shower because we were drenched in sweat, and then he went down to the laundry on the second floor to wash my sheets, which were officially stinky. I tried to go with him, but he refused, telling me I needed to eat.
I’d almost argued with him, but his concern had weighed on me.
Instead, I warmed up leftovers, taking my time so we could eat together when he got back.
As usual, he’d bought half the cafeteria, including a large pizza, a hamburger, fries, and the chocolate fudge cake I loved. By the time I got the pizza reheated in the oven and the hamburger and fries warmed up the best I could in the microwave, he was strolling back through the door.
“Now that’s a sight I love seeing.” He shut the door and leaned against it. “My woman taking care of me and making me lunch.”
I rolled my eyes, but my heart fluttered. “First of all, you took care of me by bringing all this stuff, and second, I’m not making it. I’m reheating it.”
“Same difference to me.” He walked over, pulled me into his arms, and kissed me.
Wanting more, I opened my mouth, but he pulled back a little. He booped me on the nose and said, “More of that after you eat.”
This time, I knew I wouldn’t win the argument. We took out plates, and I grabbed two slices of pizza and a piece of cake. He took the rest of the pizza but cut the burger in two and put half on my plate.
I shook my head. “That’s too much. I’ll never eat it all.”
He smirked. “Trust me.”
Whatever. He’d eat it when I couldn’t.
When I took the first bite of food, my stomach gurgled. I needed the food inside me now.
After ten minutes, I’d finished the pizza, the half burger, half the fries, and a piece of cake, and I didn’t feel even a bit uncomfortable. “I must have eaten too fast.” I frowned. When it caught up to me, I’d be sick.
“You’re a wolf shifter.” He winked, sitting back. “You need a lot more calories. We burn them four times as fast as a human.”
“Seriously?” I must have heard him wrong.
He took the last bite of his double-meat pizza. “Yup. One of the blessings of being supernatural. Between that and how much Keith, Adam, and I work out for football, we have to eat almost all the damn time.”
My body warmed. “And all that sex.”
He smirked crookedly. “Especially that. I’ll need you more often now that you’re mine in every damn way. I thought I was addicted before, but I had no idea what both of us claiming each other would do to me.”
I tucked a piece of hair behind my ear. “Well, I mean, I’ve eaten, so …” I moved to him and straddled him. My eyes locked on the place where I’d bitten him. I could see the faint scab and knew a scar would be left behind.
“Yeah.” His hands rubbed up my sides before he went still and groaned, “Fuck.” The spicy scent of his arousal vanished in a second, and then we heard a knock.
Adam linked to the two of us,We need to talk. I know you’ve been busy with Sky recovering and all, but we learned some new things.
That sounded ominous.
Raffe kissed me softly and frowned. “This will have to wait.”
I wanted to pout, but I held it back. Whatever Adam had to share sounded serious.I hope they found the wolves and questioned them.
He flinched as he lifted me from his lap and placed my feet on the floor.
There was something he hadn’t told me.They were looking for them, right?
Face creasing, he turned and opened the door.They searched all night and couldn’t find them. They’ve been doing some digging.
