Page 47 of Knot Her Mountain Men

Bear shifted behind me, woefully extracting his cock so he could roll me onto my back and lean over me. His mouth was warm and his body even warmer as I locked my limbs around him to force his weight down.

Being surrounded by Bear was an excellent distraction from the fact that most of my pack had walked away.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Mypack was not an allowed thought. They wereapack, but not mine. These men had a life here, and I had been eager to start my own before the whole Brandon mess.

Bear growled, nipping my earlobe. He whispered, “What’s wrong?”

“Just overthinking.”

He adjusted, his cock gliding right back into its home inside me. I arched off the blankets, already whining as he kissed his way down my throat and over the curve of my shoulder. “Stop thinking.”

Easier said than done, but the slow drive of Bear between my thighs was exactly what I needed to make it happen. I had madefouralphas come in the span of the day. Who even was I? I was pretty sure I had come more times this week than I had the entire rest of my life combined.

I sighed against Bear’s mouth when he returned to kiss me. “You feel so good, Bear. Never stop.”

My instincts reared up from all sides, focused on the alpha in my arms. He had saved my life, brought me to safety, built me a nest, and poured pleasure over me without any regard for his own. I couldn’t possibly have done enough good deeds to deserve him.

My chest ached over how much I wanted to keep him…all of them. I was never going to find anyone like them again even if I searched the entire planet. Staying here and giving up the whole plan was a temptation. Sometimes I forgot the plan existed, but reality was cold and liked to surge in no matter how much I’d like to ignore it.

Bear deserved more than I could give him. I had to try, though. Returning even a fraction of everything he had given me was only fair.

I cupped his face, greedily consuming his kisses. His beard had gotten fluffier over the past few days and I liked the texture of it against my fingers. Apparently Bear liked it too since his purr got louder the more I stroked it. I could get drunk on him so easily. With nowhere to go, that was exactly what I set out to do.

My alpha.

Temporarily, but mine all the same.

Every movement between us was soft and slow, with none of the frantic energy from my other joinings. Bear was here to experience me with no rush to get either of us off.

I hummed, closing my eyes and letting my hands wander, learning the expanse of his body. He was the slightest bit ticklish on his side, and he bucked hard into me when I brushed over his nipples, which, of course, prompted me to play with them until he finally grabbed my wrists and pinned them overhead.

“You’re ruining my fun.” I grinned up at him, taking in his flushed cheeks.

“Too much,” he whispered.

“As in they’re too sensitive or you’re worried you’ll come too fast if I keep playing with them?”

Bear’s shoulders shook with silent laughter, and he signed, “Both.” He watched me for a few long moments, my nerves tingling at his focused attention. “Are you happy?”

“I need a bigger word than that right now. If happy is all I am right now, then I must’ve been miserable before coming here.” I wriggled beneath him, reveling in the grip he had on my wrists. “Actually, that’s probably not wrong. I hoped I would be happy when I finally got to Missoula, but I don’t think I was before.”

Bear dipped down, lifting my body into an arch so he could suck on one of my nipples while I was helplessly suspended. Why hadn’t humans figured out telepathy? It looked like Bear had a thousand things he wanted to say, but he couldn’t touch me and sign at the same time.

My pussy clenched down on him with every sweep of his tongue until I was delirious and clinging to his head. “Fuck, Bear, you make it so hard to think.”

He quickly signed, “Good,” with a smirk on his lips before returning to his task.

This man was going to make me feral for him. I didn’t need any words to feel how much he wanted me, how willing he was to protect me and give me anything I needed.

It would be so easy to love you.

Bear froze for an instant and laid me back out on the blankets, staring down at me with innumerable emotions warring behind his eyes.

“Did I say that out loud?”

He nodded, still staring at me like I was some priceless treasure.
