“Alpha,” I moaned.“More!”
His growl rumbled through both of us, his aura growing and trembling with instability. I should be scared of the chaotic energy, but I knew he wouldn’t use it against me.
So I gulped down inhales of his stormy scent, electrically charged in a way that sent zings through me.
“Karma,” I whimpered his name, grinding back on his thick knot.
All at once he slammed his hips forward. His knot slipped inside of me with a hint of pressure, and then everything went white.
It was like nothing I’d ever experienced.
I couldn’t even stand—Karma had to hold me up as my legs gave out beneath me. I felt the trembling of his muscles as he let out a guttural growl, the sound harsh enough that I should have been scared but wasn’t.
His knot trapped him against me, his cum filling me up with a searing, pleasant heat. He was so much taller and stronger than me, pinning me against the wall. I felt safe and protected.
There was something creeping into the edges of my mind.
…I’d tried the door handle to find our cell locked…
…The others were quiet…
All of that vanished as his teeth grazed my neck.
I didn’t dare beg him to claim me, but I couldn’t stop my keening whine.
He groaned, hips shifting as if it was possible for him to be any closer to me right now—but it was.
I gasped as his teeth sank into my neck and a bond burst to life. It forged a stronger connection than the pack bond I was used to—a direct line from me to him.
I came with a series of sharp cries that he didn’t even bother to muffle.
He held me up against the wall as my legs turned into jelly. He let me slump forward, my cheek pressed to the cool wall as his tongue nursed the fresh bite mark he’d left.
My pack was so perfect, it felt like a dream.
And we would… Wewouldescape this place tomorrow, assuming…
A hazy memory pulled at the edge of my brain, trying to tear me away from this languid moment. Distract me from my alphas knot and bite.
We… Maybe… Weren’t safe here, a voice whispered.
Except I was with my alpha, so I couldn’t be anything but safe.
My brain relaxed again at the exact moment Karma stiffened.
Had I done something wrong by letting him hold me up while we were locked together? Should I be caring for him instead?
In the quiet of the dark hallway, filled with the soft sounds of our panting, I caught the sound of footsteps only seconds after he did. It put those worries to rest, but sent new terror lancing through me.
Someone’s coming.
There was nowhere to hide here. We couldn’t run, not while we were locked together. Could he fight like this, even?
“Oh, shit.” He cursed under his breath, his hands dropping from me.
Karma bent and twisted to the side, fumbling to grab his pants from where they were pooled around his feet. He searched for something in the pockets, growing frantic as the footsteps got closer, almost seeming to speed up.
He gave up before he found what he needed, pulling my back to his chest and spinning to face me away from the mouth of the hallway. I tried to look over my shoulder, but I couldn’t see past his broad chest. No one could see me, either.
