Page 39 of Unbelievable Faith
Her eyes shone with unshed tears but her lips twitched upwards a second before they were against his. He could feel her happiness through the bond. He could feel the joy radiating from inside her. Her wolf was there with them this time, rubbing against her skin, wanting him to know that she felt the same way even if she hadn’t been allowed in the open with her mate yet. Michael let his own wolf out of the cage he’d erected, letting him brush near the surface to scent how close they were to having their matesclaim.
She was right; the bond between them was so strong. Stronger than anything he could have ever imagined. He couldn’t imagine how much more powerful it would be once she marked him and their wolves mated as well. The need to be close to her, touching her, taking care of her wouldn’t wane over time the way it did with some humans. A mate bond was about so much more than physical affection and he couldn’t wait to spend the rest of his life learning and loving this woman that fate had seen fit to gift tohim.
Luna nipped at his lips, “Michael?”
“Hmm?” He tipped his chin up to give her room as she trailed kisses down histhroat.
“Stop holdingback.”
“I thought you’d want…” He trailed off, unsure how to put what he’d been thinking into words but luckily, either from the mate bond or just their connection, Luna seemed to understand and her face was soft when she pulled back enough to meet hiseyes.
“To be in control this time?” She asked and he nodded even as she shook her head, “I don’t. I know I said out there that you can’t treat me like I’m submissive but in here, just the two of us, like this…” She bit her lip and looked up at him from beneath her dark lashes, “I’m yours, Michael. I’m yours to do with as you please. I trust you and I love you and I want you to be yourself with me. I want my strong, dominantmate.”
His cock throbbed between them and all the moisture in his mouth dried up. She wanted him to be in control. She was naturally submissive and though she fought it outside the bedroom she was willing to let go and let him dominate her when they were alone like this. She wanted him, just him, the way he truly was without holding back fromher.
Michael’s throat felt tight, “Are yousure?”
Luna nodded, a small, coy smile tugging at the corners of her beautifullips.
It was all the answer he needed. Michael wrapped his arms around her and twisted. She squeaked a little when he slammed her onto the mattress but he took her lips and swallowed the sound. She opened for him instantly, her tongue meeting his and her arms and legs coming up to wrap aroundhim.
He groaned as his wolf howled inside his head. He wasn’t going to last. Not this time. Not if he went at her full throttle. Not knowing that she wanted it as badly as he did and not knowing that whether she was on top or bottom, whether he was in control or she was, that there was only one way this was going toend.
Her teeth in his skin. Mating him. Marking him. Binding them togetherforever.
With no hesitation, he notched himself between her legs and thrust hard. He buried himself inside of her as deep as he could get and growled when she cried out his name. He pulled almost all the way out and slammed into her again so hard she scooted up the bed a good foot. She only clutched at his back harder, her nails scraping him down to his ass as she pulled him against her and he groaned as he realized it wasn’t nails he felt. It was her claws. The knowledge that her wolf was fighting to be with him drove him out of his mind and he lost itcompletely.
He took her harder than his human side would ever have let him. He slammed into her again and again. He snarled and growled. He bit her again and again, leaving claiming marks on the soft curve of her breast, the inside of her bicep, the thin skin above her rib cage. He was sweating, panting, her blood making his wolf go wild inside hishead.
He didn’t just mark his mate this time. He claimed her. Body. Soul. Heart. Wolf. Woman. She was his in every way and he wanted everyone to know it. To hear them. To sense that they shared one scent now. To see the marks no matter what she wore and know whom she belonged to. But more than any of that, he wanted them to see him and know that he was hers in every waytoo.
Luna arched as her climax rocked through her and he grit his teeth as his hips stuttered, her grip on him tightening to a vise, tightening until he wasn’t sure he could move. In one swift buck of her lithe body, Luna jolted upright. Her arms went around him, one at his back and one digging into his hair so hard he winced. She wrenched his head sideways and he didn’t resist at all as she all but howled and sank her teeth into the flesh of hisshoulder.
Michael blacked out from the pleasure as his own orgasm overtook him. Their bodies still, locked together, as their hearts synchronized into one beat and their panting breaths fell into step together. The jolt of electricity that had been zipping between them since he first laid eyes on her solidified and the hints of her feelings, of her wolf, of her emotions that he’d been getting became a tidal wave that forced its way inside of him, rooting around and digging deep, finding a home inside of him just as his own being was knitting itself toher.
He didn’t know how long it took. Had no idea how much time passed while they sat there in each other's arms, wrapped around one another, his dick still inside his mate and her teeth still inside him. He only knew that when his muscles finally unlocked he fell backwards, taking Luna with him and holding her to his chest so she couldn’t slipaway.
Not that she tried. Her grip on him was just as tight and she nuzzled her nose against his neck, licked at the claiming mark she’d made on his shoulder, helping it to heal, and then sniffing around his skin, scenting and marking him, mixing their skin and come until there was nothing left of each of them individually, only their combinedscent.
His eyes drifted shut as the rightness of the moment washed over him. He yawned and stretched, feeling his muscles strain from exertion. But Luna continued to nuzzle and rub against him and despite his aches his body responded. He smiled softly as he slid a hand to her ass and smacked hersoftly.
“Be still or you’re going to make me hardagain.”
She giggled against his chest, “Exactly.”
“Jesus, woman, aren’t you tired?” He groaned as she slid up and over him, straddling his waist and giving him a gorgeous view of her long, lithe body, her full, tight tits and her gorgeous glowing face as she grinned down athim.
“No.” She shook her head and her curls bounced adorably. “I’m not sleepy at all. I’m… electric. I feel alive for the first time in so long and I want… Ineed…”
Michael groaned as he watched her eyes dart to the floor length windows and the door that led to the patio. The patio that led to a wide-open yard and then, on the far side of it, to the creek and the forest. He knew what she was getting at and even though he was exhausted and really wanted to take a nap, he knew that he couldn’t and wouldn’t denyher.
“You want to go for arun?”
She bit her lip andnodded.
“As wolves?” He raised an eyebrow when she nodded again, “You know my wolf isn’t going to let you get far, right, Luna? As soon as I let him break my skin, that’s it. It’s all over for you. He’s going to chase you down and finish the bond full moon ornot.”
Luna continued to nibble at her bottom lip, “Iknow.”
