Page 85 of Shifters' Fated Summer
I should say no. A claim mark from Luca would mean I could never leave. It was intentional, and he would never let me go.
It was weak, but I couldn’t help nodding.
“That’s my little mate” he said, his rough words scraping over me.
My shorts went next, and Luca ripped off his shirt and shoved his pants down so fast, my breathing hitched as he pushed my legs open and thrust into me.
My eyes closed, muscles tense as he began fucking me. The sound of skin slapping filled theroom. Luca reached down and grabbed my hair, pulling my head back.
“Look,” he commanded, and my eyes fluttered open.
We were displayed in the full length mirror. My small breasts bounced as his muscles tensed and he pounded into me.
Angry Luca made my heart race, and each movement, each drag of that piercing, spiraled me higher.
“Who do you belong to?”
I gasped, unable to answer.
With a growl, Luca hauled me tighter against his chest, his thrusts shortening as his knot swelled.
“Answer me, Summer,” he rasped.
“You,” I ground out, yelping as his teeth closed over the muscle opposite from Cade’s claim mark. The skin broke with a sting, and he dug in, determined to leave his mark.
With a slow lick, Luca released me. He pulled us down, cradling me against him. My eyes stayed on the mirror, the way his body framed mine, invaded me, dominated me.
“You are mine and Cade’s. No one else’s. They can’t have you.”
“Okay,” I said softly. He kissed the nape of my neck and over the bleeding bite mark.
Still locked inside of me, he pulled the blanket over us, and ran his hands down the length of my body, finding my clit and playing me like an instrument. By the time I finished, I was a boneless mess, and his knot had recededenough he slipped out of me.
My breathing evened out as Luca wrapped his arms around me and held me tightly, like after the mission went sideways, he was afraid to lose me. I couldn’t blame him after what I had suggested. But the sting of his bite proved I was his, and I wasn’t going anywhere.
Chapter 33
Betrayal
Cade returned some time in the night, and I woke with both men in bed with me. The fated mate bond purred, and I rolled my eyes, climbing over Luca to get to the bathroom.
When I emerged with my hair wrapped in a towel, Cade was gone. Luca pulled on pants and smiled up at me, but it was tight and brief.
“We’re going again. Finn hacked the nest’s new location. We’ll be there before sunset, so they can’t escape.”
“Oh,” I said, halting. “Is it safe? Something feels wrong to me.”
“It’s fine. We’ve done this before. Even before we formed this pack, Cade and I served on a team in our old pack. We know what we’re doing.”
He stood, crossing the room and kissing me. I let my towel drop so I could hold his face, my fingers tracing over the dark tattoos as they cut under the edge of his jaw.
Our kiss morphed into something deeper. I explored his mouth, and his hands gripped the small of my back,lifting me so I was pressed against him.
“I love you,” I murmured as he kissed down my neck and over the claim mark he gave me the night before. “Come back safe. I don’t know what I would do without you.”
“Of course,” he said with a wicked grin. That warmth and sparkle was back, and I relaxed. “I love you, too.”
With one last lingering kiss, he was off.
