He pulled back, then drove deep again, setting off ripples that started deep inside, then exploded outward.

The world disappeared in a shattering of stars.

Pippa came back to herself, gasping for breath, and realized Jared was still hard inside her, waiting.

She opened her eyes and stared into his, stunned.

“Again,” he uttered and started moving once more.

The hours passed in a haze of passion and heat.

Neither one got any sleep as Jared proved he’d been right when he’d said that once would most certainly not be enough.

The sun was just starting to streak across the sky when Pippa fell into an exhausted sleep, thinking she should kick him out, but unable to harness the energy to even try.

Pippa woke much laterin the day alone in her bed.

A note was propped on the pillow beside her.

It said, “Thank you for an amazing night.” No phone number was listed and there was no mention of getting together again.

She wasn’t sure how she felt about that.

On the one hand, it was good Jared wasn’t harboring any illusions about there being a repeat performance.

Except instead of feeling relieved, Pippa found herself feeling a bit put-out.

It was a new sensation for her, feeling as if she might have liked a second round in bed with a man.

The moment she had that thought, another one followed, a truly horrifying one.

It wasn’t possible though.

No way would her mate be a wolf, let alone an alpha one.

She’d been horrified when Natalie mentioned that Jared was the pack alpha.

She’d immediately made a vow not to get involved with him, but then he’d shown up under her window and she just couldn’t resist all that sexiness.

But imagine if it had turned out he was her mate.

What a nightmare that would have been!

Alphas were born dictators and there was no way Pippa would ever put up with someone trying to tell her what to do all the time.

She didn’t even listen to Natalie, so it was probably best they never did this again.

Still.

It was an awful shame.

The man had a truly beautiful cock and the best part about it was how good he was at wielding it.

“What didyou do with the wolf’s note?” Tivali asked.
