“I'm on it.” It surprised her because he usually grabbed his own food. She fixed him lunch anyway and set it on the counter for him to get and grabbed the money that he had set there.

Grant seemed to like all the food that she fixed, so there was no danger in giving him something he didn't like. He grabbed the food and then sat down and ate, but he kept looking at her, and it made her feel weird. Was it possible that Harry was right, and that Grant didn’t hate her? Anything was possible. She walked by him to get the dishes, and he grabbed her and pulled her into his lap.

“I just can't help myself anymore.” He admitted as he kissed her, and she could feel passion flair.

Chapter 4

His Need

Her scent was driving him crazy, and he didn't know how he had been around her for so long without simply taking her. He'd known from the moment he saw her that she was his. There was no way he was going to stop now, and there was nothing that would prevent this. Grant knew that she had to feel the same way because she hadn't stopped him when he kissed her. There was nothing that was going to stop him now. There was passion between them like nothing he had ever felt before, and he knew that she felt it, too.

At least there was still a little bit of sense left in him, and he picked her up and carried her upstairs, locking the door to the office as he walked by. This thing between them had simmered for far too long, and now it was a raging fire. All she had to do was say no, and it would be over with, but she seemed as stunned by what was between them as he was. If nothing happened to stop it, they would be together, at least physically. His wolf howled. He wanted nothing more than he wanted forever.

Grant laid her gently on the bed, stepped back, and began undressing. Her eyes held heat as she watched him, but she wasn't taking anything off herself. That was all right because he liked unwrapping his presents. He stripped completely ina matter of seconds, and now, he would begin on her. His hands went to her shirt, and his mouth joined with hers. This was crazy, but he couldn't stop now. Stepping back, he quickly stripped her and moved forward, positioning himself on top of her. This was really going to happen. He had stayed away from her so long that he thought he would go a little bit crazy.

His mouth worked its way down her body a little at a time, kissing her neck and working down to her breasts. He sucked one nipple in his mouth and made it hard before moving to the other one. She moaned, and he could tell she was enjoying it. Working his way down her body, he kissed and licked all the way down until he was between her legs. There, he breathed deeply and enjoyed the smell of her need. It reassured him that she still wanted him regardless of anything he did to make her feel the contrary.

His tongue sank deep into her channel, and she lifted her body up toward him, and her hands sank into his hair. Grant chuckled because she didn't want him to move, and he didn't want to move either. He replaced his tongue with a finger, then moved to her little nub and began to worry about it. Another finger joined the two, and he stretched and prepared her for what was coming. His tongue sped up, and he could feel the tension in her body as she prepared to explode.

Jenna went wild, and he slid up her body and slammed his cock inside her. This was the best way to make sure she was ready to take a large cock like his. Grant felt like he had come home, and nothing had ever felt so wonderful to him. He hesitated a moment, not wanting to cause her any pain, but she didn't want him to wait. She wrapped her legs around him and pushed her body upward and his down. He got the message and started pounding into her how he wanted to.

Pounding, pounding, and more pounding! He pushed them both toward their orgasm as he realized that the pounding thathe was hearing was going on downstairs at the office door. They both reached their bliss but immediately had to prepare to go downstairs. He hoped whoever it was had a good reason, or he might just kill them. Grant dressed, but he knew if they were wolves, they would smell what was happening.

Jenna dressed in a second, and if he didn't know better, he would say she had spilled her clothing on. He felt a fresh wave of air roll over him, and her scent was no longer there. “Are you a witch?” He asked. He tried not to look like that, which terrified him, but his wolf had gone into hiding.

They both hurried downstairs, and she had never answered him. Maybe she was just using one of Harry's toys? That was possible, wasn't it? As he arrived at the door, the person pounding on the door was unfamiliar to him.

“Can I help you?” He was the guy standing there that he had never seen.

“I thought the secretary was a girl and was here alone.”

That immediately set off an alarm in his head. “She's only alone here sometimes. What did you need? I'm sure I can help you.”

“I'll just wait till the secretary's here.” The guy hurried away.

“What the hell was that all about?” Jenna asked.

“I think he was going to attack you because he thought you would be alone. Now he thinks others are here sometimes, so he'll be more cautious, but I'm sure he'll be back. I’ll just get back to my job, so I don't get in trouble.”

He headed out the door even though she gave him an accusing look. Grant had some things to think about, like whether Jenna was a witch. The ironic taste of blood was in his mouth, and he was afraid it wouldn't matter now. He'd mated her, and now they were stuck together for all time, witch or not. She wouldn't be happy with him, and he wasn't off to a good start in this meeting. Moving his hand to his own neck, he saw that she had bittenhim, too. That was unusual for a human, but maybe she wasn't entirely human after all.

Grant had left quickly and was headed to his next job. He wasn't stupid. He knew he had just made a mess of their relationship. It was probably unlikely that she would forgive him again, and if she did, it wouldn't be easy. Maybe he would use the fact that they were mated, and she couldn't escape him to push for a relationship. Goddess! He was such a fool, and witches weren't that bad. It wasn't like he didn't spend time with Harry. She'd saved his life more than once. It was possible that Jenna might save his life down the road.

This was one of those secrets that he'd not expected. It made him wonder if there were more secrets and if he would find out all of them soon. There were also his secrets, which he had not revealed yet. Grant knew he was bad and hard to get along with. The job site was just ahead, and he pulled the truck up just out of sight of the house. He walked the rest of the way and knocked on the door, waiting for someone to answer. The lady of the house was middle-aged and very talkative. It was good that this was not one of those bad jobs, and everything went well. When he was done, he headed to the next job, which would be his last one.

Maybe no one would know what had occurred or that he had returned to the office for lunch. Would the other wolves scent the mating, or would Jenna cover up the scent? He would imagine she would cover it up because she wouldn't want anyone to know they had mated. It was hard to blame her because she wasn't very happy with him. While he did this last job, he thought about everything that had happened and how he felt about it. His mate, she was his, and he needed to decide how he was going to finish the claim. There was no way he could leave her on her own, and he knew it.

Since he had made a terrible mess of things, would she fight him and try to escape him? It was hard to say, but he needed aplan because he knew he would go crazy without her. It wouldn't be long before their time here would be up, and he knew she intended to leave. Grant couldn’t let her leave without him. He wasn't sure where she intended to go or if she had any family that she planned to go to. Jenna never talked about it, and he never asked. Grant picked up his speed and made up part of his time. It was doubtful he would be the first one back to the office, but he doubted he'd be the last one.

Now that he was done, he headed out and drove a little faster than usual. He was careful to watch everything so that he would not get into trouble and was making good time. He pulled into the parking lot and saw that Sally and her partner were already there. Grant was sure that they would be thrilled that they had beat him to the office today. If only they knew that he'd had delays and still had gotten there not long after they did. Parking the truck, he headed into the office and was the second one to make it.

Sally was grinning like a fool because she had beaten him there. He let her enjoy it and wouldn't worry about it. It wasn't like he had plenty to worry about for himself. Grant had expected questions, but he was also sure the look on his face prevented them from asking any. Just let them enjoy meeting him back to the office even though there were two of them and only one of him. It was bound to happen eventually, and finally, it did. Grant had been distracted, and it had interfered with his job. He had still gotten his work done, and he always would.

Other matters were more pressing, and he wasn't sure what to do about Jenna. She was angry at him, and that was obvious by the look on her face. He cursed himself a dozen times over as a fool. He could have handled it better in so many other ways, but he'd taken the worst possible way. Now, he would have to work his way back into her good graces, and he knew that wouldn't be easy. He handed in his list with all the jobs marked complete.

“Good to see you got them all done.” Jenna's voice was cold as ice.

“I knew you would be pleased.”
