“Not quite the same, no. I think it helped that I was in a work headspace the first time. I, um, I wasn’t this time.”
I heard keyboard taps over the line.
“It’s still as intense even with all that time apart?”
“Yeah, um, until now? I hadn’t really stopped thinking about her. She mentioned she had the same experience from when she saw me as a heat helper, and just now she said that it felt similar to being in heat.”
“Come by the clinic tomorrow, and I’ll have a look. In the meantime, stay safe.”
We ended the call with no answers, but I hoped some would be forthcoming soon enough. I’d been away from Allie for too long, and my instincts screamed at me to return.
I stepped back into my bedroom and found Allie curled up under the blankets, eyes closed. I slid in next to her and tucked in. She squirmed closer to me and rolled over so I could spoon her. It was exactly what I needed.
My instincts grew quiet.
“I don’t know why I’m so tired,” she murmured.
“We did have sex for three hours, apparently.”
Allie giggled. “Okay, fair.”
“Sleep while you can. I’ll have to get up early for the puppies and who knows what the hell our hormones are doing in the meantime. We’ll go see Dr. J after breakfast and get everything figured out.”
I fell asleep to her warmth and honeysuckle scent.
Heat tugged at my awareness.
Allie’s scent invaded my senses, sweet and potent, and roused me to wakefulness. I groaned against the back of her neck, sucking in deep lungfuls of the air saturated with her as her hips rocked against mine. Her skin was damp with sweat, and she reached for me in the dark.
I moved without thinking, wrapping a hand over her hip, holding her still as she whimpered, angling myself to slide inside her warm, waiting body.
I was never prepared for the feel of her, for the silken heat of her accepting me, or the burst of ginger notes in her scent that clouded my mind. Allie shuddered. She cradled my head in her hand, her nails digging pleasantly against my scalp, urging me onward. Each thrust was punctuated with a puff of breath that was forced out by the movement.
We rolled over as one, and she spread her thighs, letting me fuck into her, grind her into the mattress. I hovered over her, and she turned her head, offering up her throat to me. I wrapped my fingers around it, a cradle, so gentle compared to my hips or the teeth I sank into the scent gland.
All I wanted was to offer my own throat, to let her claim me in return. I’d never felt the deep, overwhelming spike of pleasure that came from a bonding bite, and I craved it with an intensity that made it hard to think. The only thing that kept me where I was was the shift in her breathing and the growing desperation of her moans. My first instinct was always to care for and satisfy her. Even with the haze overtaking my thoughts, I followed that desire.
I growled against her skin as her cunt squeezed me and she moaned into the sheets. I kept my pace even as she grew quiet and relaxed against the bed. It took a few moments before tension radiated from her again and she moved frantically beneath me.
Possessiveness simmered my blood. I wanted to have all of her, to give all of myself, and live in the intoxication of her nearness. She pulled me under with the sound of my own name.
I sank against her, skin sweaty, content to lie there and inhale the scent of her.
“You’re squishing me.”
Her voice pushed me back to the surface of clarity, and I rolled off. “Sorry.”
“It’s cool.” Allie slid off the bed and disappeared into my en suite bathroom. She returned a moment later, looking refreshed. “What time is it?”
I nudged my pillow to see the alarm clock on the bedside table. “5:45AM.”
“Ugh, gross.” She flopped down and rolled until she was pressed against the length of me.
“I should check on the pups,” I said quietly. “I usually go on a run in the mornings too, but I’ll skip it today.”
“I’ll come with you if you bribe me with coffee and treats.”
I chuckled. “Doesn’t that defeat the purpose?”
