The walls of her pu**y clutched at his fingers as she hooked her calf around his ass, opening herself up to his touch.

“More. Please, Lex. More,” she gasped out.

“Okay, beautiful.” He moved down then, tongue licking over the flesh of her stomach, over that very sensitive crease where thigh met body.

When he pulled his hand away she cried out at his absence only to moan in pleasure as his mouth closed over her.

The intensity of that feeling—of the wet of his mouth meeting the wet of her pu**y, of the sinuous slide of his tongue as it slid through the folds of her body that way, tasting her like she was the best thing on earth—made her entire body tremble.

She could feel the scalding heat of her own honey as he drew a thumb through it and slid it down to the sensitive flesh of her rear passage. She stiffened and he looked up at her.

“I mean to have all of you. You told me to make you mine, Nina. You are mine. Your pleasure is my job. Give yourself to me, beautiful. Trust me.”

She nodded and her head fell back as he took a long lick, the flat of his tongue applying hard pressure over her clit. The spark of orgasm began to heat her body, seep into her.

While he suckled her clit, teasing the underside with the tip of his tongue, his thumb pressed into her ass. He stroked it gently into her until she began to relax and accept the new sensations he delivered.

His teeth abraded her clit gently but firmly and orgasm slammed through her, poured into her cells until they all exploded as endorphins surged through her body. Stars burst onto her eyelids as her skin tingled and heated. Her bones, once achy, now felt nearly fluid as her back arched, and she couldn’t help but scream out his name.

She was still lost in the swirl of pleasure when he moved up and entered her, his c**k sliding into her body, her flesh parting like a molten curtain around his.

“Damn, you’re so hot. So tight and wet. You feel so good I may die from it,” he murmured as he bent and licked the sweat from her collarbone.

Her body slid beneath his, the sweat of their exertion easing the friction. She was past words by that point. The wolf inside her was pushing her to submit to him and she couldn’t argue. All she wanted was for him to make love to her. All she craved was the weight of his body on her own, the slide of his c**k deep within her. The scent of his heated flesh rode her in much the same way he did. She was utterly drowning in sensation. Drowning in Lex.

His pupils were so large they made his eyes look black. His wolf was there, just inside him, and for a brief moment she felt her own wolf rush up and stroke against his and they both gasped and then moaned at the pleasure.

Over and over his c**k slid deep within her body. There were no coherent words, just her moans and sobs for more and his growls and gasps. The wet collision of bodies was the only other sound in the room.

It felt like being pulled into a vortex, the only thing holding her in place, keeping her from being swept away entirely, was the way his c**k pinned her to this reality. Her heart beat with his, her lungs breathed with his, their scents mingled and became one.

It built and built, the tension tightened, the web of desire, of lust and love and longing—of belonging—built until it burst over them both as he shouted her name, his body emptying into hers in pulse after pulse.

A feedback loop of sensation was created and orgasm spread over them both in wave after wave over what seemed like minutes until he collapsed with a long sigh just next to her, chest heaving, c**k still buried within her.

Some point later she awoke again and sighed with satisfaction. His head was on her chest, ear over her heart. The sight made her ache with tenderness for him. She couldn’t remember the last time she’d felt tenderness and tears began to come then.

He looked up with a start, worry on his face. “Nina? Honey? Did I hurt you?”

She shook her head, reaching out to trace a fingertip over his lips. “No. Just the opposite. You healed me. I’ve never, ever, felt that way before. Thank you.”

If Lex Warden hadn’t already adored the prickly woman in his arms, he would have fallen right then at the expression of her feelings in such an open way. She’d been so closed up that he didn’t know what to do with the rush of awe and admiration he felt for her.

“Nina, I’ve never felt that way before either. That was… I don’t even have the words to describe what it felt like to make love to you just now. The way our wolves touched and reacted… I love you, beautiful.”

More tears came then. Resigned, Lex accepted it because women always seemed to do the opposite of what he expected. They cried at the oddest moments, but he knew these tears were a gift from her heart. That she trusted him with her barest emotions.

“It wasn’t like this for you with all the wolves that you’ve been with?”

“No. Even so close to a full moon, my wolf has never surfaced like that. When I awoke and saw you there I just wanted to look at you for hours. When I was inside you, when I was tasting you—it was everything. It was all I ever wanted. You fulfill me in a way I never even knew I needed.”

She smiled up at him and had reached to pull him back to her when his phone began to ring.

She groaned and he growled but moved to pick it up anyway. He still had a job to do but if it wasn’t life or death, he’d kill whoever it was calling him.

Nina watched him and heard the caller on the other end. She got up and quickly headed into the shower and was moving out of the way by the time he walked in.
