Page 29 of The Scent of Seduction

Nicole’s head bobbed in earnest, and Jaryn watched as each inch slid between her slick lips over and over. Her hand cradled his balls, and one finger slipped lower to massage the patch of sensitive skin beneath. As incredible as this was, he didn’t want to come in his mate’s mouth. He wanted to once again find heaven locked inside her body. With the last ounces of restraint in his system, he halted Nicole’s ministrations. She pulled off his cock with a popping sound and an expression of confusion.

“Get up here,” he growled.

Jaryn dragged her body up his. He rolled them over on the enormous bed till he braced his weight above her. Time suspended as he examined every delicate feature of her face. Then in incremental movements, he lowered his mouth to hers. It was a kiss of hunger and of claiming. It was a kiss that said; you belong to me. Jaryn pulled away from the temptation of his mate’s lips and dipped his head to capture one nipple. He sucked on the hard tip while caressing the underside of the plush mound. He lifted the weight in the palm of his hand to kiss the tender skin on the underside. Nicole’s natural taste was stronger here, held securely within her skin from the heat of her body. A little moan from above signaled that she enjoyed that touch, so Jaryn took the time to kiss and lick her swollen and aroused breasts. He found out since their mating that Nicole’s body did in fact have tiny freckles all over, and one of his favorite games was to play connect the dots, so to speak. He could feel his wolf’s desire build in his system—the ever-present need to reassert his claim on his mate. To plunge inside and take them on a journey to unparalleled heights of pleasure.

His hand slid down the smooth expanse of her abdomen and his fingers dipped into the slick creases of tender flesh he longed to drive his cock between. One finger circled the opening of her body, tracing the contours in a lazy pattern. Nicole’s thick cream coated his finger and Jaryn spread it around the blood-infused folds. Her hips thrust up towards his hand.

“Jaryn!”

“I want to hear you, sweetheart. Tell me what you want. Tell me about the need raging through your body.”

“Oh, God…” Nicole panted. “I… I need to be filled. I need you to claim me.”

He stared down at the woman he loved as he fed a single digit into the tight channel of her pussy. “Is that what you needed?”

“More!”

He added a second finger and his thumb brushed over her clit, causing Nicole to arch up and a soft pleading cry to escape from between her lips.

“How about that?”

“Please, Jaryn. You. I need you,” she pleaded. “You have me, love. I’m inside you, just like you asked.”

"Your cock. I need your cock."

“All you had to do was ask.”

Jaryn rolled onto her body. His arms gathered Nicole close as their bodies rubbed together. Her hard nipples skimmed the hair on his chest. Jaryn cupped one thigh and lifted it. His hips slid into position and his cock nudged the wet opening of her body. He moaned as her pussy stretched around his invasion. He slowly moved up into her, taking his time to fully merge his body with hers. Her fingers dug into his shoulders and her nails scored his skin, adding another sensation on top of the ones already rioting through his system as Nicole’s body enveloped his cock in fiery bliss.

“That’s right, love. Let me feel your mark.”

His voice was raspy even to his own ears. He took a large breath and his torso shuddered. There was a distinct burn on his back as Nicole dragged her fingers up to the top of his shoulders. He moved, slowly drawing out of her body. The motion made all the nerve endings in the head of his cock jump in excitement and the veins climbing the hard length pulse in a throbbing tempo. Her thighs closed around his hips. Their skin pressed together. The sweat created by their exertions made their motions slick. A whimper rose from her lips as he thrust deep, his entire body heaving against hers. His hand pushed back the damp edges of her hair and he pressed a kiss to her mouth.

He kept his momentum steady, driving his cock deep with each thrust. This wasn’t a time to rush their coupling. Jaryn wanted to draw out every moment in Nicole’s arms. Pleasure caused his body to tighten and his lower back tingled as their need climbed. His mouth left hers and her neck arched. Jaryn watched her pulse flutter in the moonlight. His teeth grazed the side of her neck. His cock plunged hard enough to rock the bed, and his mate met every thrust with her hips as she pleaded for more. His lungs burned as pleasure washed over him. The wave slammed over him, at the same time Nicole’s pussy clamped around his cock. Jaryn held her tight as he buried his cock deep inside her, sank his teeth into his mark, and offered up every ounce of his seed into the clutches of the flesh that milked him to completion.

Chapter Ten

Nicole rolled onto her back without opening her eyes, reaching out beside her for Jaryn. However, instead of the warm male body she desired, she found cool cotton. Her lashes slowly lifted, and she turned her head to look at the clock on the bedside table. Considering the glowing blue numbers, she smiled, upon noticing that the room was darker than expected. She rolled to her right and scooped up Jaryn’s pillow, pulling it close. She inhaled his scent from the fabric. How considerate of her mate to activate the smart-dimming windows in their bedroom. He’d quickly realized that nothing bothered her more than waking up to a face full of blinding sunshine.

Nicole curled herself around Jaryn’s pillow, reluctant to leave the haven of their bed, knowing that by now Jaryn was already in the air on his way to the Northwoods. Fear threatened to consume Nicole when contemplating the dangers he would face when he got there. But time waits for no man or woman, and there was a lot to do while Jaryn was gone. Not the least of which was to find out exactly who’d been following her.

She rolled across the expanse of mattress until she reached the edge and pushed until she sat up. Her feet dangled over the side of the mattress and the cool air made her bare skin chilled. The weather had become decidedly colder, and Nicole swore she could scent snow in the air. They were predicting another winter storm to hit in the next twelve hours. When she’d chatted with Landon upon her arrival in town back in September and he’d mentioned the town turning white, Nicole hadn’t been quite prepared for exactly what he’d implied. Stonepass' snowfall already exceeded her typical winter experience. When she’d asked Jaryn, he’d laughed and told her that their quaint little town averaged somewhere around seventy inches a year, and it wasn’t unheard of for there to still be white stuff on the ground come St. Patrick’s Day. She’d been a little shocked, but then logically thought that, as wolves, her mate and his pack probably weren’t that fazed by the winter conditions. However, why the humans settled here still bewildered her. In her opinion, mornings like this called for a hot shower then a snuggly place in front of a roaring fire.

A few steps and Nicole found herself in the master bath Jaryn had designed. After taking care of her morning needs and brushing her teeth, she eyed both the shower and the sunken tub. While a hot soak did sound nice, she knew only the pounding jets of shower’s multiple heads would wake her up.

She tapped the screen of the control panel outside the enclosure to bring it out of hibernation. “Activate for Nicole.”

The sound of water hitting the smoothed floor of the stone filled the space, and she stepped under the spray. Nicole felt every single drop of water pelt her skin, and while she’d been hoping for a soothing morning wake-up, the antsy feeling that had plagued her all week seemed to increase.

Over the last several days, she’d tried to hide from Jaryn just how unsettled she was. She tried to talk herself into believing that it was nerves about her mate raiding a compound run by a sadistic wolf, but something deep inside argued. Nicole had even found herself talking out loud, and occasionally she could have sworn she heard a voice answer her back.

She got out of the shower as quickly as possible and hurriedly dressed in a pair of jeans she’d broken in from the wardrobe Jaryn had bought her when she first arrived. At the time, she’d specifically told him all she needed were a few pairs of jeans and some tops until she got settled and figured out what she was going to do for a job. But Jaryn had spent a fortune, in her estimation, on a full wardrobe he’d bought from department stores on the world network. She smiled as she remembered the time shortly after their mating when she’d come into his home office to find him perusing a lingerie store using the 3D virtual modeling feature and an uploaded scan of herself. Now she thoroughly appreciated not only her mate’s generosity, but his taste for good quality clothing.

She went out into the great room and headed for the kitchen, needing her morning infusion of caffeine. The stimulant probably wouldn’t help her nerves calm down, but she was a creature of habit.

“There’s some coffee already made on the stove.”

Nicole jumped and clutched her hand to her chest. “Holy shit, Cooper! Don’t startle a woman like that.”
