His lips work their way down my chest to my belly. He tugs at my thong, and I lift my hips so he can slip them off me. Positioning himself between my legs, he kisses and licks up and down the inside of each thigh. His movements are slow, methodical, and full of love. My entire body buzzes with anticipation of where his touch might go next.

I feel the warmth of his mouth as it invades my core. I move my hips to his rhythm as the pressure builds inside me with every lap of his magnificent tongue. He rigorously devours my core, and I fist the sheets and moan.

“Does that feel good, love?” He takes my nub into his mouth, teasing it with his tongue, and nibbling it with his teeth. A lustful haze clouds my mind, and I can’t form a coherent thought or sentence, so I moan louder.

He slips two fingers inside me, slowly pumping and rubbing my sweet spot. I close my eyes and throw my head back. My body shakes and trembles as I fall off the edge with an explosive orgasm.

“Yes, Ian!” I shout, as I’m hit with wave after wave of pleasure.

“I love when you cum for me.” He continues to pump in and out while his thumb rubs circles on my nub. He watches my body with a smile, knowing that he’s the only one who can take me to such an ecstatic state.

He slips off his boxer briefs, then rubs the tip of his shaft up and down my entrance. Dipping it in and out of my folds, thoroughly coating the tip with my juices. The need to feel him inside me rises and I reach for him. Grabbing his ass, I pull him close to me, begging for him to enter. He chuckles at my eagerness, and with a single slow push; he obliges my request.

We both hiss and moan as he enters me. He is completely inside. We are one. Still, he’s too far away from me. I need him closer, close enough that our hearts beat in unison. His tongue invades my mouth, exploring every inch, and claiming it as his own. I lock my legs around him, and I can feel his smooth shaft as he slowly pumps in and out of me. Each thrust feeling better than the last.

I pull him close, wrapping my arms around him, molding myself into his body. We are like two perfectly matched puzzle pieces. Our moans grow louder as his hands explore my body, sending it into a buzzing frenzy.

“I’m so in love with you, Kate.” He whispers in my ear, sending me spiraling out of control.

My vision blurs and my head spins as I’m hit with the most amazing climax. I feel like we are floating on thin air as I shake under him. My appetite for him can never be satisfied. I’m simply insatiable. The more he touches me, the more I crave. He pumps a few more times before pushing in as deep as he can. He grunts; I can feel his member pulsate and throb as he fills me with his hot liquid. I love the grunts and groans he makes when he climaxes. Knowing that I’m able to please him sets my soul ablaze with desire.

He doesn’t pull out, but continues to slowly pump in and out. We stare deep into each other’s eyes and smile. I’ve never felt so connected to him as I do right now.

“I’m in love with you, too.” I whisper. He really is the other half of my soul. My true one and only.

A New Rein

**September 2006**

Ian

“Ian?”Katecallsoutfrom the bedroom, “help!”

“Be right there.” I walk down the hall to our room, passing packed boxes along the way. Our wedding photo still hangs on the wall. I stop to adjust it, making it level again. Every time I see this photo, I get emotional. I think about how much we overcame, and how we didn’t almost exist. Our wedding was two short months after we re-marked each other. It was a beautiful day for the private ceremony in front of the glass greenhouse at the arboretum in the city. Kate looked so beautiful in her simple yet elegant white dress. Our garden wedding was perfectly Kate, and she was in her element amongst the roses and jasmine. We spent two blissful weeks in Tahiti on our honeymoon.

“Hey, love. What can I help you with?” I walk into our room.

“I can’t get this zipped up and I’m feeling like a beached whale.” She puts her hand on her swollen belly and sighs.

“Dada, mama pretty.” Our year and a half year old daughter says from my arms.

“You hear that, mama? Our little sugar thinks you’re pretty.” Kate walks up to us both.

“Oh, thank you, sugar. Mama thinks you’re pretty too.” Kate kisses our daughter’s hand before I sit her on the bed.

“If my opinion matters, I think mama is smoking hot. Especially with my little sweet pea growing inside here.” I kiss Kate and rub her belly. Still, to this day, I can’t get enough of her, and I let her know every chance I get. “Turn around. Let me get you zipped up and help you into your shoes.”

Tonight, a new rein at Blue Moon will take over, as we are all sworn into our respective positions. Zane will take over as Alpha, I will become Beta, Kelsey will become Gamma, Rebeka will become Luna, Kate will become Beta Female, and Sonia will become Gamma Female. As our parents step down and we step up in their places, we know we each have huge shoes to fill as leaders in this massive pack.

Kate sits on the edge of the bed and plays with our daughter while I slip on her shoes. Before I do, I take a moment to rub her swollen legs and feet. She is due any moment. We’re just hoping she gets through the ceremony before the new pup’s arrival. I watch her play with our daughter and smile. She really is an amazing mom.

“It’s time to go. Are you ready, love?” She flashes me the most beautiful smile and nods her head. I pick up our daughter then help Kate to her feet, and as a family, we head down to the ceremony.

I think back to when it all started, the day I found out she was my mate. Watching her walk down the stairs, I saw the most beautiful woman where a little girl once stood. She was no longer just the girl next door and my best friend’s little sister. Looking into her eyes, I saw love. She was and is the most beautiful woman in the world. I felt love when she helped me into the paracord bracelet that she made me. That was the moment my life changed, and I knew she was mine.

What started out as a fairytale romance went sour so quickly, due to me. My selfishness and immaturity almost cost me all of this. She is the only woman I will ever belong to. I wish it didn’t take me losing her to realize that. We beat every odd stacked against us the day she agreed to give me a final chance, and every day our love grows stronger and stronger.
