She raised her arms as he pulled the sweater up and over her head. Gabriel’s breath caught in his throat, as it always did when he was unwrapping her delicious body. She was glorious in her plain bra and smooth, warm skin.
She reached for the waistband of her jeans and quickly unzipped them. Gabriel scrambled to keep up with her.
A few moments later, they were both naked, hands exploring each other with hungry urgency. Gabriel backed her toward the bed until her knees hit the edge and she tumbled onto the mattress, pulling him down with her. Their bodies aligned, her softness yielding to his hardness, and he groaned at the exquisite sensation of skin against skin.
He kissed her deeply, then trailed his lips down her throat, across her collarbone, to the generous swell of her breasts. Her back arched as he took one nipple into his mouth, his tongue swirling around the sensitive peak.
He continued his journey downward, kissing a path across her stomach, nipping gently at her hipbone. When he settled in his favorite spot between her muscled thighs, he looked up to see her watching him, her eyes dark with hunger. His first long lick made her gasp.
He grinned and set to work driving her crazy.
God, he loved devouring her sweet pussy like this, his senses filling with her taste and fragrance and the sound of her breathless pleas for more.
He worshipped her with his lips and tongue and fingers until she writhed beneath him, fingers clenching the sheets, her legs clamped hard around his head.
He could tell she was hovering on the brink of climax. It made him feel powerful to know he could do that to her.
“Gabriel,” she panted.“I want you.Allof you tonight.”
He raised his head to meet her gaze, suddenly serious despite the desire coursing through him.“My cat wants to seal our mating bond tonight,” he confessed.“So do I. But if we do this—”
“I know.” Her hand came up to cup his cheek, his ring glittering on her finger in the faint light.“It’s forever. You’ll be mine permanently. And yeah, that’s what I want.You’rewho I want, Gabriel. Until death do us part.”
His cat roared eagerly, surging so close to the surface that he knew his eyes must be glowing gold in the darkened room.
“Are you sure?” he asked, giving her one final chance to reconsider. Even if it killed him to see her change her mind at the last moment.
In answer, Kymberlie took his face in her hand and urged him up and over her.
Then she reached between them, wrapping her fingers around his stiff, throbbing cock.“I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life.”
He held his breath as she guided him to her entrance.
Gabriel pushed forward slowly, watching her face for any sign of discomfort as he filled her. Her eyes fluttered closed, lips parting on a soft gasp as he seated himself fully within her. For a long moment, he remained still, savoring the exquisite sensation of being joined with her so intimately.
“You feel like heaven,” he murmured against her lips.
Kymberlie’s eyes opened.“Good. Now move,” she growled, her inner wolf filling her blue eyes with a golden sheen.
Gabriel laughed and thrust into her, quickly establishing a rhythm that had them both gasping.
Her legs wrapped around his waist, heels digging into the small of his back to urge him deeper. Each stroke built the pressure coiling at the base of his spine, each moan from her lips pushed him closer to the edge.
But it wasn’t just physical pleasure coursing through him. With every thrust, every shared breath, every heartbeat, he felt the walls between their souls thinning. His cat clawed its way closer to the surface, reaching for her wolf across the diminishing barrier between their spirits.
“I can feel you,” Kymberlie gasped, her eyes wide with wonder.“Inside me—inside my head. I can feel your cat, too.”
“And I feel your wolf,” Gabriel replied, his voice strained with the effort of maintaining control.“It’s beautiful. Wild. Strong.”
Their movements became more urgent, more desperate. Gabriel slid one hand between their bodies, his fingers finding her clit. Kymberlie cried out, her inner muscles clenching around him as he stroked in tight circles.
“Let go,” he urged her.“Come for me, my love. Let’s make this thing happen.”
Her back arched and every muscle tensed. A keening cry tore from her throat as her release crashed through her. The rippling contractions of her body around his triggered Gabriel’s own climax, his hips driving forward one last time as he emptied himself within her in a rush of white-hot pleasure.
In that instant, something miraculous happened. Invisible machinery shifted in his chest, gears meshing and turning. There was an almost audible click as pieces long adrift found their proper alignment at last.
Gabriel collapsed beside her, gathering her panting body against his. Their hearts thundered in perfect synchronization, their breath coming in matching gasps.
