Tara
“Good morning,” I whisper as I curl into Leo’s big warm arms. He wraps them around me and holds me tight. This is by far the best way to wake up.
“Did you sleep well?” he asks in a deep groggy voice that’s just so freaking adorable. His hair is all messy and his eyes are a little puffy. I just want to kiss him, but I don’t because in the morning my mouth is a toxic waste dump before I brush my teeth.
“I did,” I say as I rest my cheek on his big chest. I can hear his heart beating in a slow relaxed rhythm. It makes me want to stay in bed all day.
The mattress is so comfy and the sheets are so soft. We still don’t have power and it’s still snowing outside, but we have all we need here.
“How come the fire is still going?” I ask when I see it roaring. It should be nothing but ashes by now.
“I woke up every hour to throw in another log.”
He just says it so casually. Like it’s nothing.
“You did that… for me?”
I’m so touched I feel like I might cry.
“I didn’t want you to get cold,” he says with a shrug.
That’s one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me. I stare up at him in awe until he kisses my forehead.
“Thank you,” I whisper with a smile as I lay back down on his chest. “Is there something I can do to repay you?”
“You don’t have to repay me for taking care of you,” he says softly. “That’s my job, Tara. That’s my purpose in life.”
But my hand is already moving down. It’s sliding along his hard stomach and under the sheets. When my fingertips arrive at his cock, it’s already rock hard. I brush it lightly, gently sliding my fingernails along his shaft, and then I wrap my hand around it.
We’re in the mountains, snowed into a cabin a million miles from civilization. There’s nothing to distract us, so we can—
“Good morning!” a deep masculine voice shouts as the front door swings open. I leap up with a gasp as it slams into the wall, shaking the picture frames.
“Can you believe all of this snow?” another man says as the two of them burst into the cabin like they own the place. “It’s got to be a new rec—”
The words disappear from his throat when he spots me sitting on the mattress beside Leo. I’m clutching the blankets over my bare chest and staring at him in horror.
“Guys!” Leo shouts. “Get out!”
“Who’sthat?” the older-looking one says as he points at me. His eyes widen when he spots the mark on my neck. “Is that your mate?”
“Holy shit, it is,” the younger-looking one says. “She’s marked.”
“Get the fuck out!” Leo roars even louder.
It’s like they’re both just realizing that Leo is here too. They look at him like they can’t believe their eyes.
“You found your mate?” one of them asks.
“Why does she have a bandage on her nose?” the other one says as he turns to me. “Did he headbutt you during sex? Leo always was the clumsy brother.”
“No, he didn’t headbutt me,” I say with a laugh. “It happened before I met him.”
Leo is staring them down with a vicious look. “You have five seconds to leave or you’re going to have a pissed-off grizzly bear to deal with and trust me, you don’t want to deal with him around his mate.”
