forward.
Shaun broke free, brought her on top, clasping her so hard her muscles protested. She couldn’t complain, not when he rearranged her and began a rocking motion, grinding against her ready sex.
“Now, please, please, please…” Gem tilted her hips, attempting to line them up properly. He refused to let go, maintaining the steady torment, driving her back up to the pinnacle. Each brush of his erection priming her body.
She pressed on his chest as she lifted her torso to vertical, catching his gaze. Her movement caused the tip of his shaft to slip through her folds. They hung together motionless—the place between worlds.
Now they were two individuals—one step away from joining their lives forever.
The only sound was the song on the radio. Soulful, yearning.
He smiled up at her as he stroked her jaw with the back of his finger. “My mate.” My. Mine . The word thrilled her and scared her silly. Predestiny was the norm amongst wolves, but no one had told her how heart-stoppingly fragile facing this moment would make her feel.
One heartbeat passed.
Another.
Gem moved forward, Shaun thrust up, and the two of them connected forcibly. Mating heat danced around them like an exotic pied piper.
Instantly, she froze. The width of his erection stretched her, changed the ache of need into something midway between pleasure and pain. Similar to the nips and the bites he’d given, and she wasn’t sure if she could survive if tonight got any better.
“Oh, Shaun.” She leaned forward to kiss him. He lifted his head eagerly to allow his mouth to meet hers. The controlling grip on her hips loosened as he stroked her gently, fingertips soothing her. He tasted wild. There was raw energy in his kiss, the hint of a sweet aftertaste that made her smile against his lips.
The measured exploration of his hands continued as he slipped them farther up her torso to cup her breasts. Pulling in a breath of air from his mouth seemed the only way to get any oxygen. His palms were hot against her skin, the tender touch helping her relax. Slow smooth circles, teasing flicks over her nipples.
The distraction on her breasts let her almost forget there was an extremely large section of his body currently in residence inside her.
Almost, but not possible.

Any pain she’d experienced was gone, replaced with the urgent desire to use him like a pogo stick.
Gem tightened her thighs, lifted herself and moaned at how incredible it felt, the consuming rub that started deep and rose to the sensitive edge of her sex in line with the crown of his shaft.
“Sweet Gem. That’s so good.” Shaun’s head thumped back on the pillow, his one arm thrown over his eyes, the other hand caressing her body. “I’m dying. I’m really and truly dying.” She rode him another time, the smooth stroke sparking energies inside her that wanted to break free.
“You’d better not die. Other than your name, Shaun Stevens, I don’t know anything about you.” His arm fell away, and the brilliant white of his smile hit her full force as she drove herself down harder. “I’m a wolf, you’re a wolf. We’re mates. That’s all we need to know.” Mates. Another plunge. Mates . Together. This was really happening.
“She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”
Gem froze—sex forgotten. Well, kind of forgotten. It was difficult to completely ignore the fully erect penis in her passage, and that all manner of incredible hormonal things were happening because of that fact.
And when Shaun took over and lifted his hips, increasing the pace between them again, Gem was the one to moan her approval in spite of having something to say.
“I heard you…in my head… Oh, Shaun…”
He didn’t acknowledge her, the sheer bliss on his face enough to make her put the discussion aside and come back to what she was doing.
What they were doing.
Shaun smoothed his hands up her thighs, dipping his fingers
