“The Texas vampires,” he says sheepishly. “With some exports to the Louisiana and New Mexico packs.”

“Wonderful!” she says, clapping her hands. “I’m so glad that the peace treaty has made things so successful for your pack.”

Holy shit—my Mate isamazing.

Buck heads back to his seat and plops down, mumbling to himself and not meeting anyone in the eye. Leo takes that moment to announce a half hour break.

I turn to Isabella, every nerve in my body on fire. “Do you need anything?”

“No, I think I’m good,” she says, standing and stretching out her long limbs.

“Good,” I say casually. “Let’s go for a walk in the hall.” She narrows her eyes at me, and I shrug. “I need to stretch.”

As soon as we’re out of the room, I lead her to another hallway, one without any tourists or hotel employees. And then, in one swift movement, I push her against the wall, and slam my lips down on hers. I need her mouth like I need air to breathe.

She lets out a surprised squeak that turns into a throat moan as I deepen the kiss, burrowing my hands into her long hair. Her hands fly to my chest, and she grips the fabric of my shirt tightly.

I absolutely devour her, sweeping my tongue across the slit of her lips until she opens up for me like the good girl she is. Then, I bite gently on her lower lip, reveling in the shiver that overtakes her as I lick and soothe the injured skin.

I’m shaking as my hands run up and down her, soaking in the heat of her body. Desire thrums through me and makes me dizzy, and all I can think of is how I need to own her, possess her, and make her mine. I pull back from her, both of us panting with the need for air.

“Do you trust me?” I murmur, kissing the side of her neck.

“Yes,” she says, her words barely more than a whisper.

“Good,” I say, and in one quick movement, I pick her up and start running down the hallway like the whole place is on fire.

She starts laughing and asks, “What are you doing?”

“We’ve got twenty-five minutes left of our break and I’m going to use that time very efficiently.”

At the end of the hall is a supply room with a sign for Housekeeping on it. I put Isabella down on the carpet before I test the knob and throw it open when I find it is unlocked. She follows me inside, and I close the door again. I find a broom that seems sturdy enough, and wedge it under the knob.

“That’ll keep any pesky housekeepers away,” I say, and she laughs again.

That beautiful sound fades away when she gazes into my face.

“I don’t know what I’m doing,” she whispers, looking almost frightened at her lack of knowledge, not knowing how much it drives me wild that I’m the first man she’s ever kissed. I can’t wait to teach her everything about what we can do to each other, and the pleasures we can bring.

“I do,” I say, my voice rumbling in my chest. “Let me take care of you.”

She nods her consent, and I sink to my knees, my fantasy from the other night flashing through my brain. She raises her skirt at my silent command, revealing shapely legs and silky smooth skin.

I kiss and nip my way up her thighs until I find the damp treasure I’ve been waiting for, framed in perfect blue lace.

I bury my nose in her wet panties and inhale her sweet perfume before tugging them down and revealing her to me for the first time. She’s beautiful, all plump skin and dewy pinkness. I can’t wait to taste her, to feel her fall apart on my tongue.

“I—I—” she stammers, and I smile up at her.

“Trust me, remember? Trust me to make it good for you.”

She nods, and I lean forward and kiss her sweet clit. She gasps, a hand flying over her mouth to hold back further noises. I start to flick my tongue back and forth, watching how each movement makes her tremble and shake.

Her skin flushes the most delicious pink, and her eyes nearly roll back as she arches against the door. Her breasts heave with short panting breaths, and if I get this chance again, I’ll make sure to worship them properly the way they deserve.

I can’t get close enough to her delicious core, so I coax her shaking leg over my shoulder, holding her steady by her hips as I suckle her clit, moaning at her taste. Already, her thighs are clenching around my head, and she makes the sexiest moans into the safety of her palm.

One of her hands fists into my dark hair, the pain from her sharp tugs shooting through my body and electrifying my cock with ecstasy.
