Page 31 of Purrfectly Mated

She pushed away all negative thoughts. If she was his mate, he needed to see the real her before they went any further. Plump belly, round hips, thick thighs, large boobs, jiggly ass, and all.

No lies or misconceptions. She was who she was, and Elissa was a big girl. She’d make no apologies. Not now that he’d said she was his mate.

Better know what he was getting himself into now. She steeled herself for his cold rejection, surprised when the heat in his eyes declared anything but.

Judging from the sound building in his massive chest, Hunter didn’t mind her curves. Not one little itty bitty bit.

Her long top covered her private bits, but just the hint of her skin seemed to tempt him. His Tiger looked as if he wanted to come out and play, too. Gold rimmed eyes bore into hers.

“I said, what else?” she repeated, pausing with her hands on the hem of her tunic.

She might not be a Shifter, but she felt desire rise between them. Sensed it in the air. The large bathroom practically sizzled with the energy flowing between her and the big Tiger.

“Just what I said. You are mine. Only you. No one else. Not ever.”

“Yeah?”

“Yesssss,” he hissed, his control waning.

“You belong to me.”

“What if someone else comes along for you or me?” she asked.

“No,” he shook his head, baring his teeth.

“No other males. Mine,” he growled.

Fuck. That was so damn hot.

She noted his eyes were pure gold now and he was trembling with either desire or anger. Maybe a bit of both.

Uncle Uzzi did mention Shifters had a wildly jealous streak.

“If I belong to you, what are you gonna do about it?”

“Mate you. Claim you. Fuck you. Now.”

Elissa straightened her shoulders. Her hands going slowly towards the buttons of her tunic.

“Purrfect,” he grunted, as she revealed more and more of her skin to his glowing gaze.

“Lissa, it’s killing me to say this, but if you don’t want me to do something about this right now, I think I should leave.”

“What if I do want you to do something?” she asked, standing so close to him now she could feel his warm breath on her forehead.

For the first time in a long time, she felt sexy and wanted. There was power and beauty in that, but also something else. Her heart swelled and her body responded to the need she saw burning for her in his beautiful, glowing eyes.

A Shifter. A real honest to God Shifter. And he was hers. Her mate. She belonged to him, and he to her.

She just needed to let it happen.

ChapterTen

Thunder roared in his brain. The sexy temptress was teasing him to within an inch of his sanity. He was desperate to touch her, hold her, fuck, he needed her.

But acting like a possessive caveman wasn’t going to win him any favors. He had to rein in his beast. But she was doing things to him, he never thought possible. Then, when he thought he couldn’t take it anymore. She gave him hope.

Grrrrrrr.
