I smirked through the building heat, leaning forward to brace my hands on his chest. “Flattery will get you everywhere.”
“It’s not flattery. It’s fact.” He bucked his hips up sharp, driving deeper, and we both let out these deep groans that echoed in the quiet room.
I picked up the pace, riding him harder, my thighs burning as I lifted and slammed back down. The wet sounds of my pussy sliding over his cock filled the air, mixing with our heavy breaths. His fingers trailed down my stomach, finding that spot where we connected. He pressed his thumb against my clit, rubbing tight circles that made my rhythm stutter, pleasure spiking hot and fast.
“Don’t stop,” he growled, grabbing my hips to pull me down harder onto him. His grip bruised in the best way, guiding me as I bounced. “Keep going. Let me watch you fall apart on my cock again.”
“Caelan...” My voice cracked, head tipping back as the pressure built low in my belly.
“Come on, little menace.” Alpha command laced his words. “Be a good girl and come for me again.”
I clenched around him tight, the orgasm hitting like a wave crashing over me. My walls pulsed hard, gripping his length as I cried out, body shaking. He thrust up one last time, deep and forceful, his back arching off the bed. Hot spurts of cum filled me up, and he groaned my name like a prayer, arms wrapping around my waist to hold me close.
We collapsed in a sweaty heap, me draped over his chest, his heartbeat thundering under my ear. His hands stroked lazy patterns on my back, both of us panting like we’d run a marathon.
“I could do this forever,” he murmured after a minute, lips brushing my hair.
I laughed softly, still catching my breath. “We might need water. And snacks. And possibly physical therapy.”
“I’ll have them delivered,” he said, chuckling. His fingers tangled in my hair, tilting my head up for a slow kiss. “But first... round three?”
“Werewolf stamina,” I sighed. At this rate, I wasn’t going to be able to walk tomorrow. Totally worth it. I grinned against his mouth, already feeling that familiar ache building again. “Only if you make it worth my while.”
This time was slower.
He rolled us so we were facing each other, side by side, legs tangled. He pushed into me gently, and we moved together in an unhurried rhythm, deep languid strokes that made me feel weightless.
His forehead pressed against mine. His hand cupped my face, thumb stroking my cheek.
“I love you,” he whispered against my lips.
“I love you,” I mumbled back, his love mixing with mine in my chest, filling my heart in a way that battled the feeling of his cock filling my pussy.
“I’ll spend the rest of my life proving I deserve you, Riley.” He peppered kisses all over my face.
“You already deserve me.” I cupped his face, making sure I caught his gaze. “You are worthy.”
He smiled, vulnerable. A smile I’d never seen from him before.
“I want to claim you,” he said quietly.
“Well, you’ve been claiming me since round one,” I said. “What does that mean?”
“It’s sealing the bond, making it permanent.” He was still moving inside me, pulling my leg over his hip and pounding inside my pussy relentlessly even as he explained. “A bite. Here.” His fingers traced the junction of my neck and shoulder, featherlight. “It connects us fully. You’ll feel my emotions as clearly as I feel yours. You’ll heal faster. Live longer.”
“How much longer?”
“Centuries. Maybe more.”
My breath caught. Centuries with him…
“What else?” I asked.
“You won’t change. You won’t become a wolf. You’ll just be... mine. Officially. In a way no one can ever undo.”
I looked at him, really look at him. His eyes, his face, the way he was looking at me, treating me. How he’d been treating me since the first moment we met. And suddenly, there was no hesitation in my heart, just pure certainty.
“Yes,” I said.
