“Gavin,” I breathed. “Please, just fu?—”
He leaned down to cover me, the delicious weight of him anchored me in place.
His thrusts didn’t slow, and my need spiraled higher. It was rising, rocketing, ready to explode and I clawed at his back wanting more, wanting to mark him as mine.
“That’s right, come for me. I want to feel you coming around my cock.” He lifted up enough to look into my eyes, the words sending me over the edge. “Now, Serena,” he commanded, and I did, my back arching, my core clenching, my world exploding as I screamed his name.
A sharp sting hit the curve of my neck and shoulder, morphing into a bone deep sear of agonizing fiery heat that filled every cell of my body.
My cries of pain mingled with his roar, as he came hard, flooding me with jets of hot cum. He thrust hard a few more times, his mouth still on my skin as he marked me in every way.
He licked my shoulder, kissing around the bite. A soothing sensation flowed everywhere the pain had been, until my whole body felt warm and languid.
“I’m sorry, so sorry, love,” he whispered. “If there were another way?—”
“I’m not. I’m yours, and you’re mine.” There was a new feeling inside me, like I could sense his regret and love and…pride?
“Do you…feel me inside you? Like I can feel you?” I asked.
His eyes widened in surprise. “You can feel?—”
“I don’t know how to describe it—and it’s not just the way you made me come.”
“We should do it again, just to be sure.” He grinned and flexed his hips, making me gasp.
I hadn’t seen this Gavin before, the one with a lightness in his eyes, and a wide, relaxed smile.
My heart beat a little faster. He was mine. All mine. The dark and rough, the sweet and affectionate, the wicked and playful.
“You’re mine,” I said. The fierce tone of my voice an echo of earlier this morning. Was it really the same day? I had confronted the man I thought couldn’t stand me. Couldn’t bear to look at me, and it turned out he was a bear. And wanted me. All of me.
“I’m yours,” he agreed. The look in his eyes turned thoughtful. “I told you I’d explain about those girls?—”
I growled.
“Yeah, there it is.” His smile grew wider. “You were already feeling the mate bond.”
“How is that possible?” Bear. Shifter. Anything is possible.
“I think this was always meant to be.” He shook his head. “I wasted so much time.”
“You did.” I wasn’t going to hold back ever again. “But I have a very good idea of how you can make it up to me.”
He pumped his hips again, his cock still rock hard.
“I’ll never stop.” His words were a vow, the fire in his eyes lighting up with the promise.
I had no idea what else would happen with my bear shifter mate, but I knew he’d always take care of me, protect me, and love me.
