He pulled away and reached into his pocket. “I…don’t make fun of me. It’s not the coolest hobby in the world. I made you this with the pieces of your table. It’s not fully finished. I need to coat it.”
Vin handed me a wooden wolf howling. A gasp escaped my lips. “You made this for me while you were at work?”
He smiled. “Yes. I know our relationship hasn’t started normally. No ring, no date, nothing normal. I figured I could make that for you,” he said.
My fingers caressed the small wolf in my hand. “I love it.”
My hands waved around the living room. “I mean, I hope I enjoyed it. Are you a giver or a taker?”
“We could always try it out again. I can show you.” His hand wrapped around my shoulder as his palm contacted the mark. A shot of arousal spread through my body. I shoved him with my elbow.
“That’s not fair! What will we break this time?”
“What’s left? Your bed?” His head tipped closer to mine. His breath caused goosebumps to raise on my skin and butterflies bounced in my belly.
My head turned towards the hallway. “We didn’t break it last time. So we may be okay there.”
“That’s ‘cause we were too busy breaking everything out here.”
His hand grabbed the bottom of my chin and brought my head closer to his. “I really want to give this a chance. Maybe Siobhan was right. Maybe we needed the right amount of luck to make a connection like this.”

Chapter 12
Clover
His lips landed on mine. Vin’s firm hands gripped my hips and pulled me onto his lap. I shrieked as I pulled back. My pelvis grinding on top of his hard cock. “Already?”
He smiled as he dipped his head towards my throat. “You’re my mate now. Of course, I’m ready,” he murmured against my neck. His hand touched the mark on my shoulder again. Another pulse of need surged through my body. My panties were getting wetter and wetter. “This isn’t fair.” He pulled me up and down the seam of his pants. A moan slipped from my lips as bliss coursed through my system.
“I think once we have a stronger bond, you’ll be able to do more to me. I am not entirely sure how it works.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, I can faintly feel your emotions through our bond, but I think we’re still hung over. I barely can feel you,” he said. He stilled his ministrations. “This is new for me just as much as it is for you. Since we started in such a different way, I don’t really know how to press forward. We didn’t really discuss much. I’m sorry it started this way. Thank you for giving us a try.”
“Don’t stop that since you started this,” I said. I leaned forward and nipped at his neck. His hands gripped my ass as I rocked against his erection.
“Let’s go to the bedroom,” he whispered.
I pulled back. “Okay,” I said. As I was scooting off his lap, he grabbed my ass and stood up. “Hey! You can’t carry me. I’m too heavy!”
“Let me carry you. It’s the least I can do,” he said.
“This is the weirdest ‘carry her over the threshold’ thing then,“ I said as I wrapped my arms around his neck.
He carried me to the bed and laid me on the edge. “There are many things that a wolf can do. I’m stronger than most men,” he said. “I’m faster.”
“Is that why I’m so sore?” I asked. My pussy was finally feeling better. I didn’t know if that was why it felt so sore. Maybe he had a massive dick. I pulled off my shirt.
His eyes darkened as he looked down at my body. His cheeks darkened. “Uh, no. I...I think we did it in my shifted form. If that's what you are talking about,” he said.
“What? I did what?”
“In my wolf form, I have a knot. It might be why I bit you. I don’t really know what happened, but I know my bite would have helped you take me easier,” he said. “You’re still wearing too many clothes.”
I stood up and slipped out of my leggings. Even as I stood in front of him in just my bra and panties, I didn’t feel self-conscious. I wasn’t sure if this could be a part of the bond. I unhooked my bra as Vin spun me around and pushed me against the bed. His fingers slid between the waistband of my panties and my skin. Fire crackled underneath his touch. I wiggled against him. A growl erupted through the room. Instantly, my panties became wetter. I turned my head and saw him get on his knees. I felt like arousal was dumping into my system.
