The base of his cock started to enlarge and tighten at the opening of my pussy.
“Bronc?”
He licked where he had left the claiming mark. “You were made to take my knot Little Wolf. Relax.” He moved slightly, and another orgasm started to climb. He consumed my whimper with his lips.
His slow movements were driving me insane as his dick slowly continued to fill me until I swear he reached my cervix.
“You are beautiful, Juliet. You squeeze my cock so perfectly. Made for me,” he reiterated.
My heat rose, and I had the inexplicable urge to bite him. Claim him. Still locked inside me, I sat up slightly.
“Bronc, I need. Need to bite you. Now.”
I couldn’t believe it when he bared his neck to me. Grabbing around his head, I pulled him to me and bit him between his neck and shoulder. Even with my flatter teeth, his blood filled my mouth like some kind of ambrosia. Another orgasm exploded through me as I felt his body shudder and felt him spray hot cumuntil it seeped out around his knot. Something suddenly shifted inside of me. I felt him everywhere. Through every vein. Muscle. My soul.
“I feel you. Inside me.”
“Our bond makes less two and more one, little mate.”
Still locked inside me, more awed than afraid, I snuggled deeper into his arms.
Distantly, I felt him fishing his phone from ruined jeans.
“Bridger.” Bronc’s voice rasped worse than ever, free hand absently stroking my hip. “Need three days’ provisions delivered to Juliet’s. Doc handles the drop-off.” A pause. “No, you dumb fuck, I don’t care if Papa is on latrine duty—tell Arsenal to guard the southern perimeter.”
I nuzzled his chest, licking the bite marks I’d left. His heartbeat stuttered under my tongue.
“Pearl’s bringing electrolyte bottles,” he murmured after ending the call, rolling us sideways. Calloused fingers traced my mating mark, the newly swollen flesh throbbing under his touch. “We’ll hydrate between rounds.”
“Rounds?” My laugh came out hoarse.
Bronc gave a satisfied smile. “Heat lasts seventy-two hours, my love.” His palm slid between my thighs as his knot loosened and released. He rubbed his cum all over my thighs and stomach. “And I aim to spend every minute buried in my mate.”
His words were the best aphrodisiac. I wrapped my legs around him and kissed him madly, moving my hips in a rhythm that would become all too familiar. I gave a yelp when he lifted me until I was on my hands and knees and he tucked pillows under my stomach to help prop my ass in the air..
“Now, Little Wolf, I’m going to take you as nature intended it.”
The scent of sweat and sex clung to the sheets as I traced the raised edges of Bronc’s claiming bite. His chest rose and fell beneath my cheek in a steady rhythm, calloused fingers idly twisting a strand of my hair. Three days of frantic coupling hadleft my thighs trembling, but the fire between us banked to embers rather than extinguishing.
“Still alive over there?” Bronc’s gravel voice vibrated through me. His thumb brushed the fresh scar on my neck, making me shiver. His purr helped ease the more difficult parts of my heat ordeal. And honestly, I loved him for it. That realization hit me between the eyes. I loved him.
“Barely.” My laugh came out raspy from screaming. “Do all your matings require triage teams?”
He nipped my earlobe. “Only the worthwhile ones.”
Through the bedroom window, I heard Menace arguing with someone about perimeter checks. The rustle of plastic bags near the door signaled Doc’s latest supply drop—protein bars and Pedialyte stacked next to Pearl’s homemade tamales. Realization settled heavier than Bronc’s arm across my waist. This wasn’t a fling. These people weren’t just neighbors.
Bronc had started gathering up trash and dishes.
“Where do we go from here?” I asked, nervousness in my voice.
“You are my mate, Juliet. Where you go, I go. Where you are, I am. But I am also the President of the Iron Valor MC, and the Alpha of this pack. Need to live in my house because it’s more central to the activity of both pack and club. I want very much for you to live there with me. Everything has happened in a whirlwind, I get that. By the world’s standards, it’s too much too fast. But, I love you Juliet Bettencourt. Not just the physical parts of you. It’s deeper than that. You are a part of me. I need you. You are mine, and I am yours.”
Running to him, I jumped into his arms and kissed all over his face. “I love you too!”
Bronc’s sudden grin crinkled the corners of his eyes. “Hellion.” He kissed me hard enough to bruise. “Let’s get to work on putting this place back together and get you packed up. Take onlythe things you love. We’re buying you all new things. No more thrift store items for the Luna of this pack.”
“Wait, what?” I gave him a stunned look.
