The Alpha's She-Wolf by K.S. Martin

you to look at me when we speak Shauna.”  He was
very close to her now.  She turned to glance at him and he caught her in his
embrace.  Connor brushed his lips over hers then drew back just enough for her
to decide.  When she didn’t bolt or scream he covered her mouth with his.  His
tongue traced the seam of her lips begging entrance, which she granted.  It
teased and danced with hers.  Her heart began to pound and a flush stole over
her body.  The heat enveloped her.  He was her mate.  It was so clear to her
now.  Every cell in her body longed to submit to him, to caress him, to take
him within her.  Her breath came in shallow pants now but it wasn’t the same
feeling as when those kinds of breaths signaled a panic attack, this was
different, this was good.  Shauna put her hands on his chest and let them find
their way around his neck giving him permission to explore her further.  Connor
pulled her up and out of her chair snuggling her tightly against him.  One of
his hands tangled in her hair and massaged her scalp while the other pressed
into her lower back holding her still and steady.  Shauna felt his growl
against her chest and liked it, she moaned into his mouth encouraging him. 
Connor moved with her intending to take her to bed when Kirk burst through the
front door and whistled loudly.
    “Glad you both got over your
stupidity.”  He smirked.  “We need to get to work big brother.”  Connor growled
shoving Shauna behind him.  “Shit.”  Kirk took a step backwards into Derek and
Mike.  “He’s gone guys.”  Shauna stepped around him and looked up into Connor’s
face.  His eyes were completely amber and his features contorted into a mask of
rage. 
    “What’s wrong?”  Shauna backed away
from Connor but he grabbed her roughly and pulled her to him.  “Let me go!” 
She tried to fight him but he was just too strong and she was terrified. 
Shauna and Naomi grew up alone without any exposure to other wolves, his
behavior was frightening, and unlike any, she’d ever seen before.  The panic
attack was starting.  She couldn’t control her breathing and her heart started its
drum roll.
    “Don’t fight him baby girl, he’s in
complete mating lust, it’s like blood lust but…”  Shauna nodded.  She
understood at once that there would be no getting away from him or fighting him
and let Connor tuck her into his side.  “We’re going to leave you two alone.” 
Naomi burst through the door just then and ducked between the men unnoticed.
    “What’s up?”  Connor growled
again.  “Oh stop it.  You aren’t going to hurt anyone here and if you don’t put
your happy face back on, you are going to scare Shauna again.”  Connor
instantly calmed, scaring Shauna was the last thing he wanted to do.  He took
deep measured breaths and looked down into her beautiful face.  He calmed
himself down quickly gazing into her eyes.  Shauna watched his contorted face
return to normal and saw the grey returning to his eyes.  She let out the
breath she’d been holding trying to keep the attack at bay.  “Shauna honey,
come over here with me for a sec okay?”  Naomi walked toward the couch and
Shauna followed her.  “Are you okay?”  Shauna nodded.  “Did you?”  Shauna
peeked up at Connor and shook her head.  “But you want to?’  Shauna smiled
shyly and bit her lip.  Naomi spotted her sisters tee shirt on the couch and
smiled softly.  “Okay.  The boys are going to see me home and then they are
going to work but afterward everyone is coming to Mike’s house for dinner,
we’re going to grill out to celebrate my claiming”  She smiled over at Mike.  “I’m
packing more of my things to bring back with me later, I am moving in with
Mike.  You and I need to decide what we are going to do with the house and the
business.  Will we give it up?  Continue?  Move onto something else?  Stay with
our mates and make babies?  Or will we expand?”  Connor
