Page 105 of Rejecting his Mate

I swipe my tongue again over it, making her throw her head back and moan. “Cade…”

I keep my tongue locked to it as she tries to tug her hand free, but I'll be the one playing with her clit. Mine. The water splashes as I apply pressure, circling it slowly and then fast. She grips the edge of the tub, spreading her legs wider for me.

“Oh!” She gasps again, the word raw and ragged as it is forced between her lips. “Right there,” she tells me, but I don’t need that instruction. I know exactly where to press to bring her to orgasm.

Her pants become more intense, building to something beautiful as my dick is painfully hard pressed against her ass.

My chest feels tight like every breath is a struggle. Is it possible to suffocate when there is plenty of air? My wolf whines, his ears up. I ignore him, focusing instead on what my tongue and my fingers are doing.

Halle’s scent surrounds me, clinging to my nose and making me feel dizzy. I don’t stop what I’m doing, though. She’s close, I can sense it. If she wasn’t in the water, I would smell it.

I grind my thumb against her clit, and her body twitches. Her orgasm rolls through her, and I love seeing her like this. Her dusky pink nipples are hard little buds as they thrust up at the same time as her hips, and her pretty pussy glistens with drops of water as it surfaces before sinking back under. She sags bonelessly against me, her skin flushed and a contented look on her face. I take a moment to just stare at her, taking her in as she looks at me with adoration.

For a while we just sit together, her back against my chest, my arms wrapped around her. Once the water gets cold, I force myself to move. “We need to get out.”

“I’m not even sure I’m clean.”

This makes me laugh. “You’re clean enough. Let’s get out before I make you dirty.”

I stand and help her out of the tub before wrapping a fluffy towel around her body.

I’ve never wanted to take care of someone before. Never cared enough about anyone to do it, but with her, it’s all I want.

My wolf lifts his head and bays into the sky. As he does, one word floats across my mind.

Mate.

Chapter 25

Halle

Ifeel relaxed and sated as he leads me into the living area. Wrapped in my towel, I sit on the edge of the couch, unsure of what all this means.

My fingers gravitate to the bite mark on my neck. It tingles as I touch it, and I’m not sure how he could give me a claiming mark when I am already joined to somebody else.

Is that possible?

I feel Dalton fading from my awareness, remaining only in the deepest vault of my mind, but his scent, his touch on me is nearly gone. I hate that he’s there at all, corrupting and degrading the way I feel for Cade.

I come back to the present, to the dark-haired wolf in front of me. His eyes are intense as he crouches down in front of me.

“We left the bags in the truck,” he tells me. “I’ll grab mine and get a clean change of clothes for you.”

The way he is looking after me makes me want to cry. There is so much care and affection there, and Idon’t know what the hell to do with it. I’m not usually emotional, but the past few days have been hard for me to deal with.

Dalton would never have helped me this way. I’m not sure Adeline would have either.But this man is caring for me and has just given me two orgasms without even considering his own pleasure.

“Okay,” I say, keeping my voice soft and hoping it doesn’t betray how I’m truly feeling.

Cade kisses my forehead before he straightens, a seemingly benign gesture that tightens my throat even more. “I won’t be long,” he assures me before he goes to the door.

He pauses before he opens it, looking back at me as if he can’t bear to lose sight of me for even a moment. I have to admit, I like the way that makes me feel, and I give him a reassuring smile, telling him without words that I’ll be alright for a moment without him.

Finally, he strides through the door, leaving me alone. I grip the edge of the couch, a smile playing over my lips. I don’t know what is going on between us, but I know my wolf approves. She is stretching in my mind, yawning and feeling as sated as I am.

We like him.

We more than like him.
