Page 259 of Knot What I Expected

“I want you. I want the matebond. I want whatever comes next.”

My palm settles over his heart.

“And if what comes next is our baby?”

I swallow past the emotion filling my throat.

“Then I want that too.”

Gold consumes his eyes.

“Gabriella.”

I cup his face.

“I choose you, Rowan.”

Monster's growl rolls through the room. But I keep my eyes on the man.

“And I want you to knot me. Right now, please, my Alpha.”

Chapter 27

Havoc

My mate doesn’t need to ask me twice.

I’m already moving, kicking away the rest of her clothes as I pick her up in my arms.

Her hot pussy presses against my stomach as I walk us to my king-sized bed, my cock bobs beneath her, slapping against her sweet ass with every step I take.

Every instinct I have is locked onto her.

Her heat.

Her scent.

The way her arms tighten around my shoulders like she can’t stand the few inches between us any more than I can.

I am keenly aware of our bodies. Of the heat radiating off her. The growl reverberating through me.

Monster is right fucking there, riding me hard, demanding everything she just offered.

Mate.

Claim.

Knot.

Mine.

But underneath all that feral need is something bigger.

She chose us.

That thought damn near brings me to my knees.

Gabriella moans as I lay her on the bed, and I crash my mouth against hers. This is not a gentle kiss. This is hunger. This is tongues and lips, and teeth mashing. This is me memorizing her taste. Stamping myself all over her.
