It wasn’t nearly enough for the hunger inside me. I grasped the hem of his shirt. “Off,” I gasped. “Now.”

He wrenched it over his head faster than I’d have thought possible, with the snap of at least one button. Somehow that turned me on even more. I seemed to have no limit when it came to theseguys.

He claimed my mouth again with an urgent fervor. The press of his bare chest against mine drew another moan out of me. My fingernails sketched lines up the muscles of his back. He hefted me as if I weighed nothing at all, bracing me higher against the tree with one hand supporting my ass and my legs splayed. I gripped my thighs around his. The hard length of him pressed against my core, and Iwhimpered.

Aaron rocked against me as he leaned in for another, even deeper kiss. I could feel the strength coiled all through him, holding me up, but also braced to withdraw the second I told him to stop. Pleasure rushed through me, but suddenly the sweep of it didn’t feel unnerving atall.

I was exactly where I wanted to be. I belonged here, with this man, in every way he wanted to be withme.

Giving in to my desires wasn’t letting go of control. It was taking it. Grasping hold of the destiny I’d never imagined and claiming it asmine.

The second I made the decision, a hum of power rose up inside me, stronger than I’d ever felt before. I linked my arms behind Aaron’s neck and dipped my head between one kiss and thenext.

“I want this,” I said, breathless, “I wantyou.”

He hesitated, searching my eyes, a wildness in his. “Do youmean—”

“Aaron,” I said, as clearly as I could manage. “Be mymate?”

A strangled laugh burst out of him, as if he couldn’t quite believe what I’d said. He crushed his mouth against mine, kissing me until I was dizzy. I fumbled with the button of his slacks. My hand brushed over his erection, and hegroaned.

“I think we’d better take this to the ground,” he said, guiding me away from the tree. He grabbed his shirt and stretched it over the dirt before he laid me down in it. “For our first time,anyway.”

“Lots of time to experiment later,” I said, and his eyes flashed even hotter. He kicked off his pants. I couldn’t wait to touch his cock. The huge, hard length of him pulsed against my palm through hisboxers.

Aaron bowed his head, exhaling with a stutter. Holding himself over me with one arm, he dipped the other hand down between my legs. A mewing sound escaped me as he stroked me there. My breath broke into panting as he slipped his fingers under the band of my sweatpants. My sex was already slick with my arousal. He trailed his hand over that wetness and muffled another groan in myhair.

“Please,” I said. He didn’t need me to beg more than that. He jerked off my pants and panties together and wrenched off his boxers. My hips arched up as he settled between my legs. The head of his cock rubbed over my opening. I pulled his mouth back tomine.

He kissed me and eased inside at the same time. His hardness filled me with a burning sensation, but it was oh so good. I was filled, completely, and it was everything Ineeded.

“You feel amazing, Serenity,” he murmured between kisses. He lifted my hips higher and thrust into me with a steadily building rhythm. I clung on to him as the swell of pleasure carried me higher. Up and up, until it shuddered through my whole body. Until I barely felt the ground beneathme.

We were flying. Soaring up and away on a haze of bliss. No leap or fall had come close to comparing to thisexhilaration.

His cock nudged against the sweetest spot inside me, and the bliss shattered apart. It radiated through my entire body, tossing me even higher. I gasped, digging my fingernails into his shoulders. Sparks flared behind my fluttering eyelids. The pull between us solidified into a solid glow that bound us together. It lit me up like a flare from theinside.

Aaron’s thrusts turned erratic. He pumped into me a few more times and moaned as he followed me over the edge. His body settled over mine, resting against me but not pinning me down. Every inch of his naked skin aligned withmine.

I traced my fingers back up his neck and into his sweat-damp hair to draw him down for one last kiss. My muscles trembled with release—andhappiness.

I had him. My eagle shifter. Myalpha.

Mymate.

Iwokeup cuddled against Aaron on the middle seat of the SUV. Daylight was streaming through the windows. My head still felt fuzzy from not quite enough sleep, and various parts of my body ached, but in an enjoyable way. I had no desire at all to getup.

I buried my head into the crook of Aaron’s neck. The wonderful salty fresh smell of his skin filled my nose. We’d gotten dressed before we’d finally made it the rest of the way back to the car, but I hadn’t been quite ready to let go of him yet. It was a tight fit, our legs intertwined and him half on top of me, and yet I felt totally at home tangled there withhim.

My mate. The knowledge thrummed through my veins. Only the first, if I fulfilled my role completely, but right now one wasplenty.

Knuckles rapped against the window over my head. I blinked and peered up at it. Aaron brushed a kiss to my temple before raising hishead.

Marco looked in at us, his eyebrows arched. He opened the door a few inches to talk. “Wolf boy found us some eggs. You’d better get up if you want to grab them before our resident bear eats themall.”
