He kisses me until I’ve forgotten where we are and what my own name is. The party continues on without us, and I don’t care. I’ve got everything I need right here.
Finally Onyx pauses, sucking in air. “Let’s go home,” he says. Without waiting for my agreement, he grabs my hand and leads me toward our vehicle.
Digging in my heels, I pull him to a stop. “Hey, it’s a nice night out. Do you want to run instead?”
His eyes light up.
Stowing our clothing in the truck, we turn toward the forest. Black fur sweeps down my arms as I shift, and suddenly the forest is brighter. Night creaturesscurry away as our paws grip the earth, propelling us into the trees.
The moonlight filters through branches as Onyx chases me northward, toward our home. Through our mate bond, I can feel adoration, desire, and playfulness as he snaps at my tail. As we cross the border, I slow. The trees are denser here in this corner of our territory, and I know patrol has the night off.
Halting, I glance over my shoulder at the dark gray wolf a few steps behind me. He cocks his head in a silent question. Closing my eyes, I reach for my human side, and let the shift change me back. When I open my eyes, Onyx stands just a few inches away, his hair mussed.
With a sweet smile, I reach up and run my fingers through his hair to untangle it. The intensity in his gaze takes my breath away.
“I’ve been thinking about getting you alone in the forest again,” he rasps, lifting a hand to brush along my neck and push my hair over my shoulder. My whole body shivers.
“I had a feeling,” I say, excitement rising as he closes the distance between us. His desire warms me through our mating bond, meeting my own.
“Did I mention purple is my new favorite color?” he murmurs before his mouth closes over my skin. My laugh is cut off by the feel of his teeth nipping the sensitive spot under my jaw.
The night’s chill prickles along my back and his body heats my front, his handing rove down my ribs to my bare ass. We’re wild things in the night, a tangle oflimbs and unending kisses flowing into each other. Promises whispered against heated skin and soft moans mingle in the air. He is mine and I am his, and when we’re done, we can return to the home we claimed together.
