The thought rolled through my mind again, and I sucked in a sharp breath.

“The thought of having his pups excites you, doesn’t it?”she muttered.

“No.No.No.No.No.No.No,” I whispered.

“Who are you talking to?”Stone murmured, turning toward me.

I stared at him through wide eyes, then at the disappearing outline of the Moon Goddess, who was fading behind him.She threw me one last smirk, and with a whisk, she vanished into the form of a flickering candle on our nightstand.

Stone snapped his head in the direction of the sudden flame.“Did you?—”

Before I could stop myself, I gently took his chin in my hand, turned his head toward me, and pressed my lips against his.The intense heat suddenly flared.He stiffened for a mere moment, then melted into the kiss, his arms slowly snaking around my wide hips.

“Zuri,” he said between kisses, “what’s going on?Your eyes … they’re glowing.I’ve?—”

“Put a pup inside me.”

CHAPTERTWENTY-ONE

ZURI

“What?”Stone asked, almost in disbelief.

I paused for a moment, desperately trying to fight the deepest urges inside me.“I?—”

Just as I was about to speak the words that I hadn’t meant what I said, a sudden heat rushed through my body.I turned toward him, my hand on his taut chest and my nails lengthening into claws, digging into the thick muscle.

“Put a pup inside me,” I cried.

While he had told me many times over that was exactly what he wanted to do, he gently grabbed my hand.“Are you okay?It must be sixty degrees in this room, and you’re sweating.What’s going on?—”

Before he could speak another word, I ripped the bedsheets off our bodies and straddled his waist, immediately feeling some relief when my pussy brushed against his hard cock.I closed my eyes and focused on the sensation.

“Zuri, I don’t think?—”

“The heat,” I muttered.“The heat is gone like this.”

“Heat?”he repeated, his canines extending past his lips.“You’re not supposed to go through heat for another couple of weeks, until the full moon.”He grasped my waist harder, as if his control was slipping as well, and pinned my hips against his.“Does that feel good, my little mate?”

I whimpered slightly, “I need you inside me.”

Hesitation washed through his eyes for a moment.“Is this whatyoureally want?”

“Yes,” I cried, panting on top of him.

Heat rolled down my spine, spreading through my limbs to my fingertips.I squeezed my eyes closed, wanting to slip into an ice-cold bath, but I knew that cursed Moon Goddess wouldn’t even let my heat go away then.

“No,” he murmured, as if he could read my mind.“It’s not.”

“It is,” I begged, attempting to wiggle my hips and slip his cock inside me.“Please.”

A low growl escaped his throat, his wolf attempting to escape Stone’s cold, hard grasp on the situation.I howled low, needing him to rescue me, to fuck me, to use me and mark me and take me as his.

“Please,” I cried, the pain unbearable.“Put a pup inside me.”

“No,” he said again, this time much stronger.

“If you loved me, you’d do it,” I said.And then immediately regretted my words because they were wrong.Manipulative.But I couldn’t talk straight anymore.My wolf ached more than she ever had, my entire body burning up in pain.
