She looked more surprised now than she did when I’d caught her masturbating.

“You like it when I call the shots in bed, angel? Is that why you’re shooting with your weaker hand, so I can win?”

She pursed her lips and her eyes flecked with fire. Oh yeah, there was my girl. She switched her stance, raised her arm and barely glanced at the target. Fired.

That was what I thought.

I walked up to her, got so close my chest bumped into her breasts. “You hold back like that on me again, you’ll get my belt on that pretty ass of yours. I want all of you, angel.”

I took my shots, but I knew the outcome. I could shoot someone, but I wasn’t trained in it more than practicing here on the ranch. I was alpha. I led.

We walked to the targets. She’d blown a hole through dead center, not a bit of paper separated one shot from the next. Unlike my target. I was close to center, but the winner was obvious. There was much more to Natalie Shefield than I ever imagined. I was going to spend my lifetime learning all her secrets. Every. Single. One.

“Well, angel. How do you want me? On top? You want to ride my dick? How about I lick your pussy until you come a few times, then you decide?”

She slid her palms over my chest and glanced up at me through those cinnamon lashes. “How about…we wash the sweat off in the shower, you lick my pussy until I come a few times, and then I decide?”

My mouth watered at the thought of tasting her. Getting her scent all over my face. “It’s wrong to throw you over my shoulder when you won, isn’t it?”

She flicked those eyelashes at me. “It is when we’re both holding weapons, big guy.”

Taking the rifle out of my hands, she settled it on her shoulder, just like a trained soldier.

Huh. There was definitely something she wasn’t telling me. She’d been in the military or had some kind of training. This wasn’t just a girl who took herself to a shooting range on weekends because it made her feel safe. I’d bet she’d even win in a shootout against Colton.

It bothered me that I didn’t know her full story, but I definitely would. I intended to find everything out about Natalie Shefield I could. Starting with how she sounded screaming in the shower.

I put the rifle away in the barn andthenI tossed her over my shoulder because I knew my mate liked to be conquered and also because I couldn’t wait to touch her any longer.

Luckily, Colton and Marina were in Cooper Valley, so I didn’t have to kick them out of the house. Because I definitely would have. I was going to make my mate scream, and I didn’t want anything inhibiting her. I hadn’t been joking when I told her I didn’t share.

I kicked the front door shut behind us then carried her upstairs to the master bedroom and directly into the bathroom I’d remodeled myself.

She started stripping the moment I put her feet down, and I had to suppress the growl that came rocketing up my throat at every inch of bare skin she exposed.

Damn, she was hot.

So hot.

I turned the water on and yanked off my own t-shirt. Keeping my gaze glued to my mate, I quickly stripped. She grinned at me, fully naked and completely shameless and stepped into the shower.

It was hard to believe how lucky and unlucky I could be at the same time.

I had my mate here. Naked. Willing.

But she was human.

It went against nature that my wolf would choose her. An alpha wolf was always drawn to another alpha. The best of the breed. The strongest she-wolf who could produce future alphas for the pack.

Why in the fuck would my wolf pick her? It made no sense other than she met every one of my needs in bed… or the shower.

And yet, even as I questioned it, no part of me was disappointed in her. She was perfect. There was no question she was mine.

An alpha had to think about his pack. I had responsibilities that went far beyond what I wanted. I couldn’t make a choice that would stamp out or lose the Wolf line of alphas and end our pack’s autonomy.

I gave my head a hard shake. I didn’t want to think about that—I couldn’t. What guy would think about anything but the dripping wet naked woman in his shower? Right now, I needed to satisfy my mate. That was all that mattered.

I stepped into the shower after her and pounced.
