Now she trailed him in his other form. Watching him morph into an all-white wolf was breathtaking. She’d never been this close to a shifter changing into their animal before and she had to admit it was fascinating.
Maxius trotted ahead of her. Keeping her cloak near her, she continued on the trail behind him. They went deeper into the woods until they came to a small creek. Maxius waded into the shallow water.
He turned to glance at her, and she knew without him having to say it.
He’d lost the trail.
The wolves had probably anticipated someone following them. There was no telling if they’d gone north or south.
Kamila held Maxius’s gaze and couldn’t shake what he had said before he’d shifted.
But I’ve known you much longer than you’ve known me.
What was that supposed to mean?
Not once had they ever spoken. How would he know her?
A gentle brushing slid along her psyche. Kamila blinked and looked around.
“What the hell?” She gasped. She spun around and took in the woods behind her. No one was there. Only someone with great powers would be able to engage with her walls she kept constructed around her mind.
“You felt that?” Maxius’s voice appeared behind her.
Kamila slowly rotated back around and faced the very naked alpha.
He stood feet from her in all of his glory. She greedily took him in, and this time she was unable to stop her eyes from going lower.
His massive manhood stood to attention. Her core clenched with need while she gazed upon the magnificent shaft.
Maxius stopped mere inches from her, forcing her to tilt her head back to meet his gaze. Her knees wobbled at the intensity of it.
“Felt what?” She went on the defensive. How did he know she’d experienced something? Her heart raced in an erratic manner. The heat from Maxius swept over her.
“This,” he murmured.
There it went again. A gentle brushing as light as a feather swept along her mental wards.
Her eyes fluttered closed as she basked in the feel of the warmth and love she felt filling her.
“What is that?” she whispered.
She opened her eyes and met Maxius’s amber eyes. He closed the gap between them, his erection pressing into her stomach. He took her in his arms, and a gasp escaped her.
He cupped her face, and she found herself unable to pull away.
She didn’t want to.
“Our connection,” he growled. Maxius bent down and captured her lips with his.
Kamila opened her lips when he pushed his tongue forward. The kiss was unlike any she had ever had before.
Electricity rushed through her body down to her toes. She leaned into him, unashamedly returning the kiss. She skimmed her hands over his chest, taking in the hard planes before entwining them at the base of his neck.
His hands dug into her hips and held her against him.
Maxius’s chest vibrated with a deep growl.
Kamila stiffened.
