If he joined her, things would happen. He wouldn’t be able to control himself, or his bear.
“I’m going to dry my clothes. I’ll come in later.”
She didn’t argue. One quick glance showed her hugging her knees in the waist-deep water. She had her bra on, though that looked soaked, too. He wanted to strip it off her and warm every inch of her body with his hands and his lips.
Fox took off his wet clothes and made a pad on the ground with an extra emergency heat blanket and a couple of flannel shirts from his pack. Wrapping another foil heat blanket around his waist, he sat and poked the fire with a stick. The heat felt incredible. Nothing beat the soothing comfort of a good fire.
Closing his eyes, he listened to the sounds of the woods and water. Everything was still. Birds chirped happily. But the air was heavy as if another storm was coming. He’d checked his hand-held radar, but it only gave him a snapshot of what was happening in the next half hour and not a broader notification. They’d make good time back to his cabin, and then… that was that.
The dribble of water suggested Lulu had gotten out. The foil blanket crinkled as she wrapped it around herself and came to the fire.
Fox dared look, saw her coming toward him. Something was different about her. It radiated off her. Determination and heat shone in her eyes with an almost predatory gleam. His middle tightened and all his senses came to life.
“You’re doing something to me, aren’t you?”
Lulu came directly at him and straddled his legs. She put her hands on his shoulders and dragged her gaze over his bare chest. Her throat moved slowly as she made her way to his eyes. Fox couldn’t move. His blood heated, adrenaline rushing though him. Afraid to touch her, he kept his hands to his sides. His bear roared and clawed at him, wanting its mate. Wanting her touch.
“Like what?”
“I’ve barely been able to keep my hands off you since we met. The more we’re together, the stronger it is. It’s not normal. It’s… different. Why?”
Unable to hold himself back any longer, he reached for her, and their arms tangled as they wrapped up in each other. Lulu ripped off her blanket and worked his free. His cock jumped to attention as she straddled him. His gaze roved her beautiful body, hands cupping her small but full breasts with perfect hard peaks. Her skin was smooth and warm; the feel of it went right to his brain and fogged him up. His arms wrapped around her, pulling her in so her breasts pushed against his face. Fox lost complete control of himself, feasting on her nipples as her fingers dug into his hair. She pulled his hair, moaned, squirmed demandingly against him.
It was a flurry of kissing and touching, his lips taking hers as his hands laid claim to every inch of her that he could reach. Lulu ran her hands down his chest and stroked his abdomen before one hand closed around his thick cock. A guttural, appreciative sound bubbled from her throat and before he could take control, she sank herself down on him.
The mind-numbing shock from the pleasure rendered him momentarily senseless. His brain was unable to do anything but process the feeling. She sank lower, taking him all with her tight, wet channel, consuming him until she had him completely. Fox grabbed her hips and forced her to hold still. Did she have any idea what she was doing to him?
He could claim her right now, right this very minute and make her his mate.
“Lulu,” he said hoarsely.
Her arms wrapped around his neck as she began to move. He had no control— let her buck and arch on him, grind into him, fuck him into oblivion. He thrust into, kissing her hard, taking her breath into his mouth and claiming her in every way that he could. That’s when he noticed the new taste on her lips. The realization caught him completely off guard.
Oh, fuck.
Lulu arched her back and dug her nails into his shoulders as her pussy clamped around him as she came.
Too late. He couldn’t hold back. Fox pumped into her, filled her with his release as her mouth crashed back onto his and he tasted it again.
She was in heat.
Shivers raced over his body. He couldn’t think straight enough to do anything about it. Lulu gripped his hair at his temples and urged him to look at her. He was still hard… and she started to move again with desperate little pants and moans that quickly flamed his desire.
“What are you doing to me?” She whispered. “Is this a shifter thing? Who are you, some sort of shifter sex king?”
He took over, thrusting hard into her, completely losing his mind as she met his every movement, her slick, wet cunt greedily taking every inch. He felt the orgasm build fast and shockingly. How was he coming again so soon?
She cried out and ground against him, claiming her orgasm just as he spilled into her again. Cupping the back of her neck, he put his forehead to hers and rode out a massive wave of pleasure.
“I’m your mate,” he growled. “You’re mine.”
Chapter Nineteen
Lulucollapsedagainsthim,weak and spent but desiring him again with a desperation that refused to lessen. She wanted more. And more. Something had snapped when she’d gotten in the water. All the lust and desire that had been gnawing and building inside her came to a head and she… she had to have him.
She’d totally thrown herself at Fox and now he was talking crazy.
“I’m not your mate.”
