I lie there, his heavy breath on my neck, my wolf on the edge… so close.
“Something is wrong,” he whispers into the moment that is perfect in every way. Except it isn’t perfect, is it?
“She feels stuck,” I say.
I feel his weight lift from my back. Strong hands clasp my waist and draw me to my knees. Arms wrap around my waist, his solid chest flush to my back.
Shadows move down below, flitting amid the trees.
His words are in my ear. “It’s okay. It might take a bit more of a nudge.”
I hear the smirk in his voice, and I know what he’s implying. Heat surges through me at the thought of him taking me.
“Yes.” I gasp the word.
His hold tightens in response, his breaths fast and shallow. “Not tonight. I won’t rush this.”
We stay like that for a long moment, and I melt against him. “You’ve marked me as yours, haven’t you?”
He doesn’t respond right away, instead sweeping the hair away from my neck. Warm lips find my ear. “Partially. Tomorrow, we will finish. But you are now mine. Everyone will know that now and leave you alone.”
Mine. That is all I hear.
