His loud growl filled the room. “If?”
She lifted her hand and continued, ignoring his question. “You should let him do what he needs to do to calm down. I need to know if I can really do this, be what you need.” Her voice was a whisper by the time she finished the sentence.
Hunger ripped through him and nearly sent him to his knees. His nostrils flared as he took in the scent of her arousal. He stepped closer, hands still in his pocket. She’d surely see them trembling if he took them out. He let his bear a little off the leash to test his mate. He leaned over and licked down her neck, needing to put his scent on her.
“Are you sure about this?”
Her body swayed and she nodded.
“I need words, Cali,” he rumbled.
“Yes,” she whispered.
Hands still in his pockets, he closed the distance between them until the hard points of her nipples poked into his chest. He closed his eyes and savored her scent, and the blast of heat flowing from her. He leaned over and kissed her neck, scrapping his teeth down the column. She whimpered and reach her hands to wrap around his neck.
“No,” he ordered on a growl. “Leave your hands at your side. If you touch me, I stop.” He bent his knees until his erection fit right between her legs. His bear bucked his control. No, we’ll take it easy on her this time. She’s not ready yet,he soothed his bear.
He pulled his hands from his pocket, and gave in to the need to touch her skin. His hands slid under her shirt, her smooth skin warm and soft. He pushed his hips up, grinding on the heat emanating from her center. She mewled and clutched her hands into fists. He kissed his way up her neck, pulling the lobe of her ear into his mouth.
“You can’t imagine all the ways I want to take you, my sweet.” He ran his thumbs over the peaks of her nipples, the lace of her bra no doubt adding to the sensation.
He rolled them both between his fingers, trailing kisses down to her collarbone. Her head lolled back.
“Please,” she whispered. She moved her hips, grinding on his cock.
He smiled and allowed it. Of course, she would learn that he wouldn’t always be so nice with his punishments. He trailed one of his hands lower, unbuttoning her jeans and slipping his fingers inside. Her body was scorching.
“My God, Cali, you’re so wet, so hot. It’s taking everything in me not to go down on my knees and devour you.”
She gasped, her hips jerking as he slid aside her panties.
“You taste so good, and really, it’s punishment for me not to be able to eat you.”
She shuddered.
“This little button here,” he pushed his thumb down and she moaned. “You remember, right, how I wrap my tongue around it?”
“Yes,” her harsh whisper brushed his neck. She was gyrating her hips, moving her clit on his thumb, trying to reach the orgasm he felt tightening her body.
He pinched her nipple and pulled down on her clit and she hissed in pleasure. “Feel good, my love?”
“Yes!”
He took a kiss from her, spearing his tongue into her mouth, wishing he was driving it into her heat, tasting every drop flowing from her sex with his tongue. Her breath quickened and he smiled, pulling back from their kiss. He released her nipple next and she whimpered.
“Now, I’m going to give my bear skin time, and when we come back, depending on how nicely you apologize to your mate, I’ll finish what we started.”
He pulled his hand from her pants and she swayed. He kept his eye on her as he licked her taste off his fingers. He gave serious consideration to forgetting the dominance his bear needed, but seeing the defiance in his mate’s eyes, he thought better of it.
“You can’t do that.”
He grabbed her chin and gave her a possessive kiss, sharing her taste. “If I come back here, and the scent of your orgasm is in the air, I will be very displeased. Take a shower, and whatever else you need to do to relax, but then I want you on our bed, undressed and ready for me. Am I clear?”
She growled. “You’re serious?”
“Did you not stand here and tell me that as my mate you wanted to give my bear what it needed?”
“Yes, but I thought…”
