Page 84 of Corbin
Corbin couldn’t argue with that, plus the wolves eating something easy to find like a rabbit would be simpler than himtrying to feed Eirene anything decent. They didn’t even have energy bars.
Ares killed a rabbit and gave it to Pixie after he realized she was not much of a hunter. Then he found one for himself.
Corbin had to see Eirene soon. He’d been patient through everything his wolf needed because Ares had faced his fears and overcome them. He’d also shown more desire to be a partner today than before. Corbin wanted to cling to that and not lose it.
Once the wolves had drunk their fill of water, Corbin said,Please give me the body.
Instead of a sharp no, Ares gave a long sigh and started the shift.
Pixie noticed, and she began shifting.
Pushing up to his feet, Corbin moved over to pull Eirene to him. “Are you okay, babe?”
Her pretty hair stuck out in different directions. She looked up at him for a few seconds and started laughing.
He didn’t know if he should be happy or worried at that reaction. “What’s so funny?”
“Surviving all that and hours in the water to finally shift so I can see you, and my second thought is how much I want a hot shower. Maybe I am a bit of a princess sometimes.”
He hugged her to him, holding her close. He would give her all the hot showers she wanted if he could get her to safety.
She squirmed closer to him like the minx she was and asked, “What would you want if we could snap our fingers and make it happen?”
“Given that both of us being naked is opportune, I wouldn’t need a genie to grant my wish, but ... I think we need rest.”
“Sadly, I agree.”
He walked her over to the flattened grass and stretched out on his back. “You lie on top of me. That’s the best I can offer for comfort.”
“My favorite bed.” She snuggled down on top of him.
He muttered, “Keep moving like that and your bed will be bumpy.”
Her laugh sounded like a bell tinkling in the wind.
He loved how easy she was, even at the worst of times. He had no intention of sleeping so he could keep watch over her. She started humming a tune that sounded like a lullaby. He closed his eyes to absorb her wonderful voice, looking forward to the day he could hear her sing a real song.
After a while, her voice trailed off and her breathing slowed. She was falling asleep.
He forced his eyes open, but he’d almost been lulled asleep. He listened for any threatening sounds, only to hear crickets and frogs chirping and croaking. He thought she would sleep like the dead, but after two hours of snoozing, his sexy ass female started running circles around his nipple with a finger.
Then she ran her tongue over his other nipple.
He grabbed her hand. “Last night, when I said I wanted to make love to you in many different places, this one hadn’t been on the list.”
“Good time to add to the list,” she said against his chest in a sleepy voice.
“Are you sure you’re awake, babe?” Because she’d brought his dick to full attention.
“I won’t go back to sleep with you poking me.”
“Hey, you’re the one who played with my nipples.” He smiled.
“You’re complaining?” she asked and pushed up to prop her chin on her folded arms.
“Not a bit. But I want to give my princess a more comfortable place than this.”
“It’s a good time for us to be creative,” she challenged. “Got any ideas?”
