His body fell on top of mine, rolling us both to our sides as he kissed along my neck, his tongue tracing where he had marked me. I tilted my head on instinct, begging him to bite into me. I wasn’t even certain where that desire had come from. It had never occurred when we fooled around before, but I wanted it more than anything now.

I gasped as he did just that, his teeth sinking into my flesh as they had outside my family’s home. Marking me all over again for all to know who I belong to.

“Did I hurt you?” Nyte asked, licking the mark and sending another spark of lust straight between my thighs.

“No,” I answered with a moan. “That felt amazing.”

He chuckled into my ear, flicking his tongue over the piercings along my ear. “Good enough to do again?”

My thighs squeezed tight as my breath hitched. “Yes.”

I moaned as his hand slid between my legs, tracing my clit and sending shock waves through every limb of my body. My hips rocked with the motion, his cock growing hard against my back.

“How many times do you think you can handle?” he asked against my ear.

I moaned, his finger slipping inside me, twirling around my still pulsing cunt. “As many as it takes,” I answered.

“For what?”

“To get you out of my system.” The words slipped from my lips before I knew what I was saying, my body freezing against his as his fingers stopped stirring in my body.

He chuckled once more against my ear. “What if that never happens?”

I bit my lip again, looking at him from over my shoulder. “Then I guess we will never be done here.”

He pressed his lips to mine, adding another finger inside me as he returned to thrusting them in and out. “We’re gonna be here forever then because I’ll never get you out of my system. You run too deep.”

I kissed him with a moan, rolling around in his arms to wrap myself around him. I couldn’t help but believe him, even as the voice in my head reminded me that I wasn’t his forever. He wasn’t mine forever, even if it felt like I was. Even if he believed it now, our time would end, but he would always be a part of me.

We rolled in the sand, covered from head to toe, not caring where the gritty earth deposited on our bodies. I soon sat on top of him, my legs straddling his hips.

“I love you,” I heard myself say, wondering where the words had come from or why they felt so right.

He didn’t say the words back, only deepening the kiss and pulling me so we were chest to chest. It was still early in the night; and with his head pressing against my thighs, I knew it would be a long night of rolling in the sand and maybe taking a skinny dip in the ocean before covering ourselves with sand again.

“I want this to last forever,” I whispered, my head falling back as he thrust into me, taking us back to the brink of pleasure and pain.

Chapter eleven

Nyte

I volunteered to patrol the beach of Sunset Cliffs for nearly every shift. When I was here with Anthony and his father, I had picked up a faint scent that seemed familiar, but I couldn’t place it. It was a male werewolf. The familiarity of the scent left me uneasy, in any case. The only scents I would be familiar with would be other neighboring pack Alphas or a member of my own pack. The Coronado pack was large, with several lesser packs branched off. If the werewolf who had stalked Paige had been familiar enough with Sunset Cliffs to chase her as far as he had, there was a good chance that the wolf was a familiar pack member.

I growled at the thought of one of my own trying to claim my mate, leading her to believe that he was her fate and pushing her to come to me for help out of fear. I squatted down to try and find the scent trace again, anxiously trying to figure out who he could be. The sounds of footsteps in the sand barely pushed through my concentration, whipping my head around to find Anthony walking up to me.

“Hey,” he greeted, waving his hand in the air. “Find anything?”

I shook my head, standing up to my full height and meeting him halfway. “No, it’s been driving me nuts since family night. It’s so familiar but far too faint for me to place the scent. Now, it’s even more faint. Too many foreign scents have muddied it further. Have you figured anything out yet?”

“Nah, we even tried the variation of the tracking spell Ama put on Dad that she thinks he isn’t aware of. Whatever clues that were here aren’t enough to piece together who it was, or even where they went afterward.”

I scrubbed a hand down my face. “So, we are exactly where we started then.”

“Not entirely; you did confirm that it was a local werewolf. Not some rogue from out of town causing problems.”

We began to walk along the beach, heading to the path along the cliffs that Paige always took, hoping for some clue to appear magically.

“I just wish I knew more than that. Like, why the fuck he would try to claim my mate as his.” I let out another low growl.
