Nodding, I let out a deep breath. “I’m good.”
He gave a final push and his cock was buried inside of me to the hilt. My hands moved to his back dragging down his muscles as he started to pull out of me before abruptly thrusting inside again.
Pleasure built as our bodies moved in sync. Panting breath, heated skin, and moans mixed together.
When he bit down, once again, on my collar bone, giving me his mate mark and drawing out blood, I saw stars as I came, this time, almost passing out. Wyn moaned softly as I felt his own release.
He rolled to lay against my side, his fingers brushing through my hair. My eyes closed at the tender touch.
“You still need to give me your mark.” His voice had softened as he continued to run his fingers through my hair.
Opening up my right eye, I didn’t want to move. “Now?”
His laugh was barely there. “Yes, kitten. I want to be yours.”
Sitting up, mourning the hair petting already, I kissed the middle of his chest. He watched me with hooded eyes.
I wasn’t sure where I wanted to mark him until I paused on his left side of his chest. He raised a brow when I grinned up at him.
“You’re mine. You were mine when you first took a step into the cabin.” I licked his left nipple teasingly, pleased when he sucked in a sharp breath. Someone was sensitive. I’d have to remember that for the future.
My canines lengthened just as I bit down around his nipple. He gave a shout, his hand coming to hold my head still as I took his blood in my mouth, moaning. I could feel his cock starting to harden against my thigh as I pulled back, licking my lower lip.
The changes my body made with a thought should have still concerned me, but it felt natural now. Easy.
Chapter 23
Becca
As I went down the stairs to the second floor a few hours later, I paused as I noticed the rest of the guys on the couch playing a game. I tensed.
Seth was in the middle of it, his arms spread across the back of the couch. He smiled at me, and my shoulders relaxed.
I knew that they were aware Wyn was a mate, but sleeping with him was another thing altogether. Looking at the others, I wanted to make sure we were okay.
Axel was leaning against Seth with Cody in his lap. It made me happy to see them together. Axel must have missed them as much as they missed him. Cody was concentrating on the game as if something important was on the line.
Jasper wasn’t there. I glanced around and Seth nodded toward the deck. Jasper stood at the rail, looking out into the woods.
I moved quickly past the TV, with the three of them whistling at me. I rolled my eyes at them as I slipped out the door.
“Jasper?” I didn’t want to bother him if he wanted to be alone.
“Hey, Becs.” He didn’t turn around but held out his arm. I went under the arm to lean against him as he pulled me close. “Just needed some air.”
This was quickly becoming one of my favorite things. Cuddling against them.
“Can I talk to you about something?” I looked out at the woods. The sun had started moving across the sky.
“Of course.” Jasper moved his attention to me.
“I know we’ve had the talk, but being with all of you, it’s really just fine?” My animal flicked her tail at me in annoyance.
Jasper’s arm squeezed my waist as he laughed softly. “My fox wants me to boop you on the nose for that question.” He looked back to the woods. “There will be jealousy. I’m jealous that I haven’t gotten to have you yet. But we will work it out. You’re not human any longer, my love. We’re family now. Even Wyn. It’ll work itself out. Never doubt our bonds with you and each other. I don’t have a problem with Wyn. Like we talked about earlier, I think he’s going to be the one who has the hardest time adjusting to all of us.” He paused to let me process his words. “I want you. I actually ache with how much I need you to be mine, but it doesn’t change the fact that this is your choice and you’re in charge of the timeline.”
My face flushed at his statement of him being jealous that we hadn’t had sex yet. He wasn’t pressuring me, and I appreciated him for it.
“You’re the reason I can’t breathe.” Channeling the dark side, I looked at him, trying not to grin. I hoped he got the reference. He didn’t disappoint.
