Rad's eyebrows shot up. "What?"
I felt my face flush with heat. I dropped my eyes and started to roll away, horribly embarrassed. I never should have—"Rad!" I cried out when I was wrenched back around. "What—"
I whimpered when Rad captured my lips, stealing all thoughts from my head just as he stole the breath from my lungs. I groaned into the kiss as Rad's musky scent filled every pore in my body.
The kiss was hot, a savoring caress. In a matter of moments, the kiss grew more demanding, more savage. I reveled in my passion, my breath catching as the sexy man kissed me even deeper.
When Rad's lips moved away from my mouth and started moving down my jawbone to my throat, I tilted my head back, giving Rad better access. The growl that rumbled through Rad's chest set my pulse to pounding frantically.
It was the hottest damn thing I had ever heard.
I whimpered again when Rad moved away. I grabbed at him wrapping my arms around his neck when he scooped me up in his arms. "Where are you going?" I asked when he suddenly set me aside and then got up.
"We need lube."
Right.
I knew that.
I pressed my hands to my cheeks, positive they were blazing red. I wasn't exactly a virgin, but I wasn't that experienced either. Finding someone I felt safe enough to have sex with wasn't easy.
When Rad came back, he was carrying a tube of lube in his hand and a sleeping bag tossed over his arm. "Stand up for a minute."
I quickly stood and then moved out of the way so Rad could spread the sleeping bag out on the ground where I had been sitting. As soon as he did, I sat back down.
Rad tossed the lube onto the sleeping bag and then knelt in front of me. "Can I claim, Ajag, make you mine?"
"Yes." There was no hesitation in my answer.
"You know if we do this, I will bite you and bind us together."
I nodded.
"Once it's done, it can't be undone. You'll be mine forever."
"But, you'll be mine, too, right?"
"I will, Ajag. I will be yours for the rest of your days and mine."
"Okay then."
Rad's eyebrows lifted. "You agree to be my mate?"
I grabbed Rad's face between my hands and pulled closer until our noses were mere inches apart. "Yes, Rad, I agree to be your mate."
Rad down at me with an intensity I'd never seen before. For a brief moment, I couldn't breathe, afraid Rad was leaving me when he stood up, but then the man started stripping his clothes off, and there was no possibility of breathing at all.
There just wasn't enough air in my lungs.
Rad was a thing of beauty on any day. A naked Rad was every fantasy I had ever had, all rolled into one. I could lie there forever and just look at the man.
Still, when Rad knelt down in front of me again, I eagerly welcomed the man between my thighs. Touching was way better than simply looking.
"You need to be naked, too. Works better that way."
I was all for naked.
I went to work on the buttons of my shirt. Rad chuckled as he reached for the snap and zipper on my pants. My underwear, shoes, and socks soon made a pile with the rest of my clothes on the ground beside us. Between the two of us, we had me naked in seconds.
