“Aren’t you worried Mrs. Rodwell might get mad at you for fraternizing with the guests?” I smirked up at him.
He narrowed his eyes. “You just let me worry about her. She can yell at me till the cows come home. So long as you’re in my bed, I don’t give a hoot.”
I smiled. “You’re inmybed right now.”
“That I am,” he rumbled, running his big hand down my stomach. He caressed the birthmark again, but then moved on to stroke my thighs.
I shivered at his possessive touch, and my dick warmed and twitched with interest. “Shit, all you have to do is touch me and I’m ready.”
“Yeah?”
I blew out a shaky breath. “Definitely.”
The sheet tented between his thighs, and he pushed them off. Before I could stop him, he was kneeling between my thighs. He took my dick in his mouth, and I let out a lusty gasp of delight as he sucked me deep into his throat.
I braced myself on the mattress, groaning as he sucked me hard. My dick grew inside his hot mouth, and I was incapable of controlling the wanton sounds falling from my lips. I watchedmy dick disappear deep into his mouth as I fucked his face. I couldn’t stop, the urge to thrust was instinctive. My thigh muscles burned as I used his mouth for my pleasure. He stroked himself with one hand, his other hand rubbing over my hole.
“Shit,” I wheezed, body shaking. “I… I’m gonna come again.”
He moaned and sucked harder.
My orgasm hit me hard and warm, causing me to cry out. This climax was softer since I’d just come moments before, but the fact he’d brought me to orgasm at all so soon was miraculous. He groaned and swallowed my cum. His thick cock hung down between his muscular thighs, and he stroked himself until a stream of cream spilled onto the comforter.
Once we’d both climaxed, he crawled up my body and kissed me. I tasted my release on his seeking tongue, and I tugged him closer. We kissed for a few moments as our delicious orgasms faded away. Then he collapsed beside me, cheeks flushed and hair mussed.
“I’m not a begging man, Tanner,” he said breathlessly, “but I’m begging you to stay another week. I ain’t ready to say goodbye.”
There were plenty of reasons why I shouldn’t give in, but the contentment I felt overrode them all. “Okay.” I laughed sheepishly. “I need more of you too.”
He sat up on his elbow, looking elated. “You mean it? You’ll stay another week?”
I shrugged. “There’s nothing but stress and turmoil for me back in Billings. It can wait.”
He leaned in and kissed me. “After all the guests check out tomorrow, you and me are going camping under the stars. I have a few days off coming to me, and I’m spending them with you.”
“Yeah?” Excitement thrilled through me at the look in his eyes. “Just you and me?”
“Yep.”
“Promise you won’t get in trouble?”
He lay back, tucking his arms behind his head. He looked content as he stared up at the ceiling of the cabin. “I’ll explain everything to Mrs. Rodwell. She won’t be a problem.”
“Okay.” I scooted over to him, cuddling against his body. “There’s a wet spot on my side.”
“Is that the only reason you’re canoodling with me?” he asked with a smile in his voice.
“That and I kind of like being near you, Rex.”
He ran his hand up my back, pressing me closer. “Feelings mutual, Tanner.”
Chapter Eight
Rex left as the pink dawn stretched across the room. I’d been uncertain of how he’d handle the dreadedmorning after. But he didn’t sneak out as I’d feared he might. Instead, he kissed me goodbye and said he’d see me later in the day. His affectionate goodbye left me feeling happy and valued. Not something I’d felt in a long time. Things with Steve had never been easy—not once we became lovers. Even after he’d given me his bite, I’d never felt secure.
And he’d proven me right.
I didn’twantto think about Steve when I was feeling so happy, but it was difficult not to. I could admit that, while I was still in pain at his betrayal, there was also relief mixed in. I had no guilt though because I hadn’t given up on him—he’d abandoned me. There was some twisted comfort in that. I’d given it my best with Steve, but he’d been incapable of being a faithful and loyal alpha.
