It also had me wanting to drive inside her and claim what was meant to be mine. To make sure she forgot everyone and anyone who might have touched her before me. And to ensure no other Alpha would ever be good enough for her in the future.
So fucking wrong.
Feels too damn right.
My palms skimmed up her sides to once more palm her perfect tits. I teased her hard nipples with my thumbs while my lower half firmly pinned her against the wall.
It wouldn’t take much to enter her.
But an insistent pull in my mind held me back, reminding me to be gentle with her. To cherish her as an Alpha should.
My wolf grumbled inside, his need for her bordering on violence. It’d been six very long years since I’d taken a woman to my bed.
I hadn’t meant to fall into a bout of celibacy, but after meeting Ivana, I’d simply lost interest in everyone else.
She’d consumed every ounce of my attention, dragging me into one of the hardest battles of my life.
It was a battle I was currently losing.
A battle I no longer wished to take part in.
Not with the pliable, willing Omega pressed up against my hard, aroused flesh.
Ivana caught my bottom lip between her teeth, causing my eyes to flash open and collide with her dangerous gaze.
If she bit down, it would initiate a mating bond between us. A bond that required me to bite her in return.
Don’t tempt me, macushla, I thought at her, belatedly realizing that I could access her mind again.
Whatever block she’d created had long since crumbled to dust, allowing me to hear the sensual intentions dancing through her thoughts.
Gods,I groaned, enthralled by her imagination. Yet the underlying hint of innocence told me she wasn’t experienced.
And that…
That forced me to slow down.
To take a breath.
To gently remove my lip from her teeth so I could trail kisses across her cheek.
She needed tenderness. Adoration.Worship.
My hands returned to her hips, my lips going to her ear. “Have you ever been knotted, Vana?”
Her fingertips skated down my torso, nearing my groin. “Not by a real Alpha, no.”
I frowned. “Are you being coy with me, darling?” Because that certainly seemed like a very Ivana thing to do.
“I have a toy,” she whispered. Her blue eyes lifted to mine, only to drift to the side a heartbeat later as she added, “For my heat cycles. Because… you never…” She swallowed and shook her head. “I don’t think it’s the same as a real knot, but it… helps.”
A note of sadness haunted her mind, pushing away some of her lustful thoughts.
He never came,she was thinking.He left me to suffer alone. Because he never wanted me.
“Fuck, Vana, I?—”
A loud knock against the bathroom door interrupted me mid-sentence. My power instantly locked on our intruder, my gaze narrowing as I spun in his direction.
