His dark hair was kept cut close to his head. His smooth brown skin was flawless, and she could see the crinkles in the corners of his eyes and wasn’t sure if they were laugh or stress lines. His build was that of a shifter, muscles defined and well curved out on his arms and chest.
He glanced over at her before snatching a random blade of grass. “What do you want to know?” he asked, playing with the grass in his hands. “I can tell your mind is racing a mile a minute.”
She thought about his question. She had a million questions running through her head. The one she was sure of that she didn’t need to know, was if they had been intimate. There was no way on God’s green Earth she would not have had sex with Gavin. Just staring at him now had her clenching her thighs together.
“Who kissed who first?” she asked.
He barked a laugh and tossed the blade of grass. She smiled at the sound of his laugh. Her heart did a pitter-patter at the sound of it and paused when he turned his beautiful grin toward her.
“You kissed me first.”
“What?” She shrieked, shaking her head. She may not be able to remember her past, but she didn’t think she was a kiss-him-first type of girl.
“You did. It was one week after we met at the traditional mating call ceremony. I believe it was our official first date.”
She laughed, covering her face in embarrassment. A wistful look came over his face as he met her eyes through her fingers.
“Are you sure?”
“I’m positive. Right here in this spot. I had brought you here for our first date. You fell in love with this area the moment you walked through the trees. You pretty much had the same reaction you had a few minutes ago. My plan had been for us to have a picnic. Afterwards, we were going to shift and run through the wild.” He glanced at her with his smile fading.
Her breath caught in her throat as she waited for him to continue.
“And?” she pressed. She had to know what happened next. He couldn’t just leave her on a cliffhanger.
The heat in his eyes was all she needed to know about what had happened next.
Go to him, the voice in the back of her mind urged.
Well, if she made the first before, she’d just have to do it again.

Gavin released a grunt at the force Damara’s body slammed into him. She crushed her mouth to his in a hard kiss. His chest rumbled with a deep growl at the feel of his mate’s body in hands. He gripped her close to him, allowing her to straddle his waist.
He angled his head, deepening the kiss. He took control of it and his dipped his tongue inside her mouth, tasting her. She moaned, meeting his tongue’s thrust. Her small hands reached underneath his shirt and tugged. She dragged it up over his head, breaking the kiss. He stared at her, his heart pounding a mile a minute as she stared with her lust-filled eyes.
“Damara,” he growled.
Her eyes flew to his.
“Are you sure?”
“God, yes,” she groaned, their lips meeting again.
He had to fight to push his canines back in.
Claim her,a voice demanded in the back of his mind.
His wolf, ever impatient, wanted to claim their mate now.
Not until she remembers, he snapped to his wolf.
He began to disrobe her. First, her shirt. He greedily took in her plump mounds that were cupped and pushed up by her lace bra. Her dark areolas peeked through the sheer material.
Gavin reached up and gripped her breasts; the familiar flesh still filled his hands. She leaned into him, offering her neck. His tongue trailed along her soft skin while his hand reached behind her and released her from the restrictive contraption. A growl vibrated deep in his chest at the sight of her naked breasts.
He pulled her closer, pushing his hardened cock into the warm valley between her legs, and took her breast into his mouth. She gripped his head between her hands as if to guide him.
