His gaze darkened, and he kissed me again, this time with purpose. I opened to him and our tongues tangled, my skin heating as his hands stroked me, starting at my shoulders and working their way down until he reached my backside.
He gripped my thighs and lifted me. I spread my legs, grateful for the full skirt that allowed me to wrap them around his waist. Somehow, we made it to the bedroom without breaking our kiss.
I slid my feet back to the floor and pushed him away. He looked at me, confused, until I reached behind me for the zipper. I let the dress fall to the floor and stood in front of him, clad only in my panties.
He swore under his breath as he ripped his tie off, followed by his jacket. I giggled as he struggled with his shirt buttons. His eyes were dark and pinned me in place as he tore the shirt off.
My breath came fast as I stepped forward to run my hands over the muscles of his chest, down to his abs. I wasn’t nervous anymore. I wanted to belong to Tobias.
He picked me up in a bridal carry and laid me on the bed, coming to rest over top of me, his arms holding him above me. I pulled him down so his body rested against my own, my hips cradling the hard length of him.
He growled, rocking his hips against me. His hands were firm as they molded against my body. He alternated between rough and gentle strokes as he teased my breasts to a peak, all the while keeping up the rocking motion against my lower body.
I moaned and grasped at his hips, urging him on. My body throbbed and clenched against his. He shifted, making room for his hand to reach between my legs. His strokes were firm against my clit and I bucked, his mouth swallowing my cries of pleasure.
He traced his lips down my neck, settling in the crook, the marking spot. He sucked and nibbled while his fingers stroked and plunged into my wet heat.
Just as my pleasure began to crest, he sank his teeth into my neck, a sharp pain followed by intense pleasure that threw me over the edge. My body shook beneath him as his teeth withdrew. He licked the bite mark, his saliva soothing the wound and causing it to heal.
It also caused me to moan as my pleasure built again from the tingles radiating from his mark. He withdrew long enough to shed the last of his clothes, coming back to rest his large, hard cock against my slit.
He rubbed it against me a few times, gathering my moisture before easing the head into me. I moaned his name when he went no further, his hips making shallow thrusts. He slid further into me and I pulled his lips back to mine, holding his head in place so I could ravage his mouth the way I wanted him to ravage me.
He took the hint, and with one hard thrust, he was in me. It felt strange having him there, and now that I was marked, I could feel the echo of his emotions amplifying my own. He pressed his forehead to mine, and we exchanged breaths as we both adjusted to our new position.
As soon as I was ready, I rocked my hips against his, and he began to move. Slowly at first, then faster. I met his thrusts with my own movements, our pace frenzied as we both climbed higher.
I shattered, feeling him follow right behind me with a roar. I floated, still in pieces, collecting in his arms as he rolled us to his back to keep from crushing me.
I rested on his chest as I came back together. No longer just me. I could feel the bond now, tethering us together. Making us one.
“I love you, Emma.” His words flowed over me, and I could feel what he felt through the bond.
I pressed a kiss over his heart and whispered, knowing he would feel the truth of my words through the bond. “I choose you. Always.”
EPILOGUE
Tobias
I wrapped my arms around Emma as soon as I entered the apartment, breathing her scent in deep. After I marked her, we spent most of the following week alone with each other, but today we went back to our usual routines.
“How was your day?” Emma nuzzled against my chest. “Mine was long.”
“Same here.” Focusing without Emma there was hard but being able to mind link her helped. I knew it would get easier. Mates often spent time apart, but our bond was so new it was still a challenge for us.
She stretched up on her toes to kiss me. I deepened it and soon we were both breathless, with Emma straddling my lap on the couch. She pulled back and rested her forehead against mine, our breaths mingling as we enjoyed being back together.
“Tell me about your day.” She gave me a look when I groaned. “I want to hear about it. I learned in Luna training today that part of my job is to be a sounding board for you.”
Emma was still tutored by Lora in werewolf topics and trained by Danny in fighting, but she spent the rest of her day with my mom learning about being a Luna. We were planning to have her Luna ceremony at the next full moon, and she wanted to be as ready as possible.
“I spent the day reading reports. Matthew and my father covered last week, so I just needed to catch up.”
“Nothing interesting?”
I frowned. “Sebastian sent over a report on the creature. It crumbled to dust on the table when they went to examine it.”
“That’s weird. Did they learn anything?”
