“No, I’m not. Go back to sleep.” Of course, he’d do no such thing and she’d have been disappointed if he had.
/> “You feel so good. Come here,” he growled, rolling her onto her back.
“You’re insatiable.” She smiled up at him.
“Only when it comes to you.”
Nick captured her face with both hands and lowered his lips to hers. God, she couldn’t get enough of him. He was becoming an addiction. The more she tasted him, the more she wanted. He’d loved her for hours the night before, in every conceivable way, but it still wasn’t enough. Moving over her, he covered her body with his, enfolding her in his embrace.
He claimed her once more, this time loving her with great tenderness, as if she were a priceless treasure. In her entire life, she’d never imagined sharing this sort of intimacy in lovemaking. Nick wasn’t like anyone else, ever.
He was the man—wolf—for her.
Moving within her, he stoked the fires until the blaze consumed them both. Their passion erupted with force as they melted together, riding the pulsating waves. At last, he collapsed with a shudder, holding her tightly.
Calla ran her hands over his back, wondering how she’d ever lived without this, without him.
“Where are we going to live?” he asked. “I’ve been meaning to broach the subject, but there hasn’t been time. I’d be glad to travel back and forth between here and the stronghold.”
“But that would make your work harder for you,” she said.
“Some. But what you do with teaching the children is important, too.”
“I love you for that,” she said, stroking him. “But it’s easier for me to travel than you. I say we live here and travel to my brother’s as needed.”
“Are you sure?”
“Positive.”
He kissed her soundly. “It’s settled, then.”
He became quiet, and she asked, “Is there something else on your mind?”
“There is.” After a pause, he said, “You know how you said it’s rare for vampire females to give birth?”
“I remember.” She pulled back and looked into his earnest face, already smiling inside and out.
“Well, do you think we could try? If you want to, I mean. I know I already have a daughter, but I missed out on so much of her growing-up years, it aches,” he whispered.
“Oh, honey.”
“Please, consider it? He could be a little vampire, or a wolf. Could he be both? I wonder.”
“Well, I can’t consider it.”
His face fell. “Why not?”
“Because it’s already a done deal, my commander.”
“You mean—?” His face lit with untold joy.
“Yes. We’ll just have to find out what special gifts our baby has when he arrives.”
Laughing, her mate pulled her into his arms and made love to her again. And again.
Life was full, and happy. With Nick.
Her wolf that chased the shadows from them both, for good.
