Belle blinks once, then silently accepts the orange juice I hand to her. Fixing the towel around my hips, when my dick is rock hard and straining at the material, isn’t easy, but I manage to turn off the oven and serve Belle’s food without burning my cock.
Starving after depleting my energy healing my body, I eat every bite while my mate chews thoughtfully.
“Everything okay over there?” I butter more toast and hand her a slice, also taking one for myself. Belle looks around and frowns, meeting my gaze with a confused look on her pretty face.
“I thought you’d be mad. I had a whole speech prepared.” When I see her beautiful hazel eyes glisten with unshed tears, I cross to her, squatting down and lifting her chin so I can make sure she understands.
“I am mad. Mad at Lucia and Toby for being so greedy. Mad at Leon for daring to suggest he was going to keep you. Mad at myself for leaving you the first time we met.” She smiles and presses her forehead to mine. “But not at you; you knew I wouldn’t have lasted two minutes back there still mated…” I shake my head.
Belle raises an eyebrow at me, unconvinced. “Okay, maybe a little mad that you went to Lennox’s clan on your own.” I run a hand through my jaw length blond hair and sigh. “Okay, maybe I'm a lot mad about that. But you’re my mate and I love you. Even without the bond, I wouldn’t want anyone else.”
Scooping her out of her chair, I wrap her legs around my waist and stride toward the bedroom, my head buried in her breasts.
“Ethan! Look where you’re going!” Belle tugs on my hair, but I’m not budging. I’ve found my happy place.
“No, too busy. You direct me.” Pulling her top up with my teeth, I wrap my lips around her nipple while she shrieks that I’m too close to a table in the hallway.
“Go left, go left!” Giggling, she digs her heels into my ass and tries to twist in my arms to see where we’re going. “You’re going to crash!” Laughing and out of breath, I finally make it to the bedroom with only one lump missing from my shin. Tossing Belle high into the air, I smile as she bounces in the middle of the bed, kicking her heels. And I take a second to thank my lucky stars that it all worked out.

BELLE
Dropping one knee onto the bed, then the other, he prowls toward me. His wolf flashes in his eyes, lighting up his already striking irises to an electric blue, calling to my wolf.
She’s ready.
She’s been ready from day one and won’t be denied any longer.
“Are we really doing this?” I breathe, his heated expression filling me with joy. In my head, I thought these would be a difficult few days, unpicking why I did what I did and trying to reassure him I never wanted him any less. Ethan, it seems, does not require reassurance.
Nodding, he keeps moving forward until he’s over me, one hand on either side of my head. His large frame covering me makes me feel safe, and after the last few days, I need that. I need him. My gaze drops hungrily to the excuse for a towel covering his straining cock; I reach out and give the material a quick tug, throwing it to the side.
“I missed you,” I whisper, trailing my fingers down his firm chest. His skin is tanned and smooth, most of the burn marks healed completely. Four faint pink lines linger across his side where Leon dragged his claws along his hip.
My chest tightens as I think about how close I was to losing him, to never having this.
“I’m never leaving you again,” he whispers. “I’ll come with you to your pack. You can come with me to Grey Ridge, I don’t care.”
Resting my arms on his shoulders, I close my eyes and just enjoy having him close. When he kisses me, I scratch my nails against his scalp, pulling his body down onto mine. He tugs my shorts down, nudging my legs wide with his knee and settles between my thighs. When I feel him positioning himself at my entrance, I sigh happily and rock my hips, pushing his tip inside me.
“That night, when you sent me those messages… I did come. I did imagine it was you,” I confess, and a fire lights-up in Ethan’s eyes.
“Good. Tell me what I did to you,” he whispers, his lips brushing against my ears as he nibbles my earlobe. My mind goes blank as tingles erupt wherever he touches me, and I shiver at his touch.
“You… you… took me slowly, until I was begging for you to fuck me harder.”
Ethan slowly drives his hips forward, my mouth opening on a silent cry as his thick cock stretches me wide.
“Like this?” he teases. Slowly, he slides home, filling me up and setting every nerve inside me on fire. Instead of thrusting, he rocks his hips, making sure his pelvis rubs my clit on each pass. My nails dig into his shoulders as the riot of sensations overwhelms me. I can feel myself burning up and my needy pussy clamps down, gripping him tight.
Stretching up, I nod and press my lips to his, panting as he rocks harder. My insides coil tight, low down in my pelvis, and warmth spreads out from my core to my fingers and toes. I can’t be about to come already.
“And like this?” Easing back, his smile is teasing when I whimper, my hips lifting off the bed, chasing his, seeking the friction he’s denying me.
“Ethan…” I warn, as his hand slides between us and he strokes my clit, swirling gently around it, taunting me when he knows I need more. “More, please, more.”
Instead of doing as I ask, his hands lightly skim over my sensitive skin, blazing a trail along my sides, tickling the underside of my breasts and taking the weight of them in his hands.
