I take a slow breath and lean into Rafe’s warmth. The broadness and strength of his chest. The dark, rich coffee scent. I let myself bathe in everything that makes Rafe, Rafe.
“I want this.” And it’s true. I do.
But I’m still nervous.
And Rafe seems to know this. “You know, I think we’ve all put a lot of meaning and weight into this.”
Well, he’s definitely not wrong. I’d twisted our sex lives into something way more than just sex, noodling it up into my self-worth and value as a wolf.
“But how about we don’t worry about any of that? Just for now. Let’s try to focus on only our bodies?” Rafe lifts my chin and I’m met with a different, sweeter smile along with those blazing green eyes. “Deal?”
I give him a slight nod. “Deal.”
His smile is the last touch of sweetness I’m allowed.
Dark need pierces his gaze as Rafe threads his fingers through my hair at the base of my skull and pulls tight.
“Mine,” he snarls. His hot breath against my cheek sends a shiver right to my core.
A sharp gasp gets caught in my throat as he pulls again, this time to the side. Rafe runs his nose up my neck and inhales, pulling in great lungfuls of my scent like a drowning man. And maybe he is drowning. Drowning in need and lust, in pain and responsibility, in decisions and doubt.
Maybe we all are.
And for once in these last weeks, I let go. I give into what my body wants and cling to Rafe like I, too, am drowning.
I grab his shoulders and press my neck, my chest, my core, any part I can, to him and finally relax into it. I take a full breath of Rafe for the first time in weeks.
And when I finally do, I’m nearly knocked over. His scent seems stronger than usual. Not because it is, but because for so long I’d been taking the smallest sips of air around him, avoiding his scent as much as possible.
It’s stupid. I know. But a girl will do a lot to keep herself from being disappointed again.
The moment Rafe’s dark coffee notes swirl in my nasal passages, they’ve already short-circuited my brain. I’m completely wasted on alpha. All at once, my own caramel scent kicks up to max, a gush of slick floods my basement, and my pupils blow out, blurring my vision for a moment.
Rafe lets out a feral growl and my sexfluttersat the sound. “You’re so fucking sexy giving in to me,” he says, and my vag fucking loves it, clamping down on nothing.
I rock myself against his hardening length, building that sweet pressure.
“Fuck, Willa. You look fantastic grinding on your alpha,” Jonah groans from behind me. His words egg me on, and I arch my back and put a little more swing in my hips, playing it up for Jonah as I lean into kiss Rafe.
Rafe meets me halfway, and the moment our lips touch, zings of pleasure shoot down my body.
Fuck, why had I denied myself this so long?
I groan into his mouth and Rafe pulls me closer. His hips thrust against me before he grabs fistfuls of my shirt and tears the back wide open.
His fingertips dig into my bare back, kneading into the muscle and claiming my skin. It hurts a little, and I might have finger-shaped bruises later, but that doesn’t mean I don’t fucking love it.
Rafe unhooks my bra, rips it away, and pushes my shoulders back to take me in.
He says nothing, but the greedy hunger on his face says all it needs to. There’s something else, though. Something hidden under the surface. Something more than simple desire. It’s almostreverent, his expression, and it takes my breath away.
I let myself get lost in that moment, leaning into it with more of my senses—running my hands down his body, taking in another deep breath of his scent, and finally tugging his shirt off.
My mouth floods with saliva at the sight of him. Rafe is alpha wolf perfection. Muscled but not lean. Hairy, but not overly so. Broad and strong and…
All mine.
“How did I get so lucky?” I mumble, dragging my palms across the wide expanse of his chest and up to his shoulders. I trace my way around to the back of his neck and tangle my hands in his hair, leaning in to reignite our kiss, but Rafe grabs me by the waist, tears my body away from his, and throws me to the floor.
