“Maybe?” he scoffed as he raised his hands and cupped her breasts. “I bet I could turn that maybe into a yes.”
“With your tongue?” she moaned when he pinched her nipple.
“That’s how I got you under my spell the first time, isn’t it?” he teased as he leaned up and used that wickedly sexy tongue to lick her nipple, and then suckle her until she was writhing on top of him.
She pulled his hair, enjoying the sound he made when he let her nipple pop free, “No.”
“No?” He looked up at her skeptically and she could see his green eyes sparkling in the moonlight.
“No. I was under your spell from the moment you showed up on my doorstep with your adorable niece looking for your long-lost sister. I knew I was going to fall in love with you even then.”
“And thank God you did.” He reached up and cradled her face in his palm, “Because I don’t know what I’d have done if you didn’t.”
“I love you.” she whispered, the words sounding strange but right, so very right.
“I love you, Maya.” he whispered back before she swept down and kissed him hard and deep.
She was the one in control this time and it helped soothe the worst of her nerves. She had felt out of control, like she was spiraling and might completely spin off the planet, ever since her wolf ran into the clearing to find Zander bleeding. If she was honest with herself, she’d felt like she was losing her tight grip on her self-control since the first time she saw him. But this, being together this way, knowing that he wanted this as badly as she did, knowing she was the only one that could give it to him, it made her desperate to forge the bond in steel so nothing could ever break it or them again.
She tugged his bottom lip between her teeth, earning a growl, and smiled as she licked it to soothe the sting. There was nothing sweet or gentle left inside of her to give him right now. She’d thought he was dying. She’d thought she would lose him before they ever had a chance at a life together and now that he was healing, her wolf was hissing to mark him already so that they wouldn’t have to worry about him being injured ever again. She sucked his tongue as she dropped a hand between them and found his cock, giving the long, thick length a firm stroke that made Zander shudder beneath her.
The heat was burning between them now and sweat broke out over her body. Zander’s skin was slick with it too. She tasted the salt on his skin as she trailed kisses down his chest to his nipple and the silver barbell that matched the one in his tongue. She sucked and plucked at it with her teeth and tongue as she simultaneously jerked him off with her hand between them.
“Fuck.” Zander cursed as she flicked her thumb over the swollen head of his throbbing cock, collecting the slickness she found there. “Maya, I want inside you.”
“I want that too.” she whispered softly against his chest.
“Then don’t tease me anymore. Put my cock in you.” He slid a hand to her ass and squeezed. “I want to feel your tight pussy squeezing me like you’ll never let me go.”
Maya moaned, as much from his dirty words as from the way he read her mind. She wasn’t letting him go. She wasn’t letting him out of this bed. Not until the full moon tomorrow night. Not until he wore her mark and had his own wolf, not until she knew he could protect himself and that he would always come back to her. Because he was hers.
Too needy to play with him any longer, Maya rose up on her knees and positioned him beneath her before sliding down. Her head fell back on a moan as she took his cock deeper and deeper still. Once she was fully seated with him inside of her she didn’t move, could barely even breathe. In this position he filled her to bursting and her body stretched in the most delicious ways to let him in. She could feel his piercing pushing against her clit but she didn’t start rubbing against him no matter how much she ached to. She simply enjoyed the feel of them, joined in the most intimate way, soaking in the rightness of the moment but Zander groaned and grabbed for her hips.
“Goddamn, Maya. You have no idea what it does to me to feel your body squeeze me like that, like I’m coming home.” He slapped her ass playfully and gave a quick buck of his hips, “Ride me, sweetheart. I want to see you lose control.”
Maya wrapped her arms around his neck and began to roll her hips. She shifted her weight so that she could find the best angle and moaned when his cock found that sweet spot inside of her. Zander grunted, still holding her hips but letting her set the pace, letting her control their coupling.
She rode him hard, speeding up, rising and then slamming back down. Their sweat mixed and their bodies slid together in the most erotic glide. Zander sucked her nipples as she bounced on his cock, her head thrown back and her orgasm just out of reach.
She liked it that way, letting the tension build higher and higher, feeling her body shudder right at the edge and then pulling off him to start the climb all over again. She muttered and murmured as she used him to make her body feel good, talking nonsense, telling him how good he felt, how long she’d waited for him, how she was made for him.
Zander groaned and kissed her with hot and hungry open mouth kisses. He squeezed her ass, pulling her down on top of him hard as he ground up. He found her clit with his thumb and rubbed in small circles and she began to spiral, losing her rhythm and crying out as the edge snuck up on her this time, making it impossible to slow down the freight train that was barreling down upon her.
Zander pulled his hand away from her clit and she whimpered at the loss. She would have sworn the asshole chuckled but when he replaced one hand with the other she gasped out a breath. Zander slid his thumb between her lips and she moaned as she licked and sucked it without him needing to tell her.
“Fuck that’s it, sweetheart. Taste yourself for me. Get it all over your tongue.” He popped the digit free and pulled her head down to him, “Now give me some.”
The kiss was wild and sloppy. It was all tongues searching and teeth clacking. Their movements were out of sync, both of them too far gone to bother righting it. And it didn’t matter because her orgasm hit her before she had time to so much as pull away for air.
“Now.” Zander groaned, “Fuck, Maya. Do it now. I’m gonna…”
Her body still stretched tight as a bow string, thrumming with the waves of orgasm, she released her tight hold on her wolf enough to let her surge to the surface. Her wolf howled with pleasure and Maya knew her claws were out, knew that they must be scratching the hell out of Zander as she held him tight, right where she wanted, but she didn’t have the power to let him go. Not now that the wolf was with them. She bared her fangs and with a sharp snap she sank them into Zander’s shoulder and held on tight as magic burst through the connection, nearly leveling her with the power of the new connection they’d just forged.
Zander cried out as he came. She could feel his cock spilling inside of her and she continued to ride him, taking him deep. She held him close after, not moving off him, not releasing her bite, not until he went slack beneath her. Only then did she remove her fangs from his skin and force the wolf back down so that she could care for her mate.
She pulled off his softening cock and felt his seed and her own juices run down her leg. It didn’t matter. She would clean up later. Right now all that mattered was that Zander was lying on the bed, unnaturally still, and though she didn’t have much experience with a human transitioning after a wolf bite she was fairly sure it wasn’t supposed to involve him going comatose.
“Zan?” she whispered softly, unsure if he could even hear her. She reached out and touched his face which seemed to have gone very pale. She pulled her hand away with a wince. His skin felt like it was on fire. “Zander? Zander, can you hear me? Come back to me, baby. Please come back.”
