“Such a good girl.” I slid my fingers around the front of her throat, not squeezing, but holding her loosely there as I rocked in and out of her. I pulled her torso up, so she was arched beautifully.

She loved it. She cried out, releasing even more arousal around my cock.

“Yeah, you wanna come all over my cock again, don’t you, honey?” I found a steady rhythm.

“Yes,” she moaned.

“You want me to give it to you harder?”

“Yes, please.”

I pushed in harder, slapping my thighs into her ass.

She let out a little cry.

“Like that, honey? Or was that too hard?” I did it again.

“It’s good,” she moaned. “It’s so good.”

I picked up my speed, plowing into her now. The room filled with the sounds of flesh slapping flesh, her slickness dripping down around my balls. I was getting dizzy with need.

Oh fuck. It wasn’t just the need to come. My canine teeth had elongated slightly and were coated with serum. My wolf wanted to mark her.

If I’d had any doubt that she was my mate, it vanished now. One quick bite, and she’d be mine forever.

But, of course, I couldn’t do it without her understanding. Without her consent. And arriving at that consent was a problem I didn’t quite know how to tackle.

I closed my lips around my teeth and drew in a deep breath through my nostrils, trying to rein in my wolf.

Not yet.

Maybe not ever, I reminded myself. I had to stay vigilant. Keep our hearts–Remy’s and mine–out of the game until I was sure it could work.

“Please,” Joy begged.

Oh, fuck. My mate was begging? She needed me to give her satisfaction while I was thinking about protecting my heart. What kind of jackass was I?

I reached around to the front of her hips and put the pad of my index finger over her clit.

“Don’t come until I tell you,” I growled in her ear.

She cried out at the sensation of her most sensitive part being touched. “Wh-what? Why?” she practically wailed. She was desperate to come.

“Because I’m in charge. When I tell you it’s time, you’re gonna come all over my cock. As hard as you’ve ever come in your life. Understand?”

She nodded frantically.

I fucked her hard as I tapped her clit with my finger. “Ready…”

My balls drew up tight. I was as desperate to release as Joy. “Set…”

“Please!” she wailed.

JOY

I screamedbecause it felt so good. It wasn’t a little tremor of an orgasm, but a body-shaking–no, earth-shaking–kind.
