“This is just going so quickly, Seven.”

“I get that. I do. And while all I can do is work on rebuilding your trust, I can’t do that if you’re keeping me at a distance. Think about it, baby. Can you see yourself with anyone but me? Because when I look at you, nothing and no one else matters.”

“I can’t, but that doesn’t mean anything because I haven’t really…uh… had sex before. So technically there’s never been anyone that I wanted to be with forever.”

“I would try to get you to see there’s a reason for that, but instead, we can just look at it as it is right here, right now. We can take each other’s virginity. I think that’s the perfect way to start our life together.”

“Lucy tried to explain the mating bond. This will link us forever. Without me you could end up like Oracle,” I tell him, trying to get him to see what is giving me pause.

Seven shakes his head. “You don’t get it, honey. The bond just strengthens our connection. I’d be like that even if we never completed the bond.”

“Seven,” I sigh.

“Grace, can you see a world without me in it?” he asks, staring into my eyes. I recoil as the thought takes over my mind and tears burn my eyes. I slam them shut trying to hold the tears back.

I feel his lips gently kiss my eyelids.

“We’re mates, Gracie. With or without the bond, it’s still true.”

I feel the words settle in my chest, my heart racing.

He pulls me into another searing kiss. I pull back just enough. “Then claim me,” I invite, the words muddled against his lips. “Claim me, Seven.”

His body goes still. I take over, delving my tongue into his mouth, tasting him, needing more. The insatiable pull between us fueling my need.

He’s right. I already belong to Seven.

I’m already his.

I roll over so she’s beneath me, her body caged beneath me. I capture her mouth in a kiss, knowing I need to slow down. It takes more effort than I would have dreamed possible, but I know I need to be gentle.

“I don’t know if you’re partial to this shirt, baby, but it’s in my way,” I growl. Knowing I’m mere moments for claiming my mate has me feeling an urgency that I can’t describe. It’s as if the hunger is throbbing in my blood and there’s only one thing to satisfy me.

Owning Gracie completely.

“I like this shirt. Don’t—” The sound of the shirt being ripped fills the air as I tear it down the middle. She scowls at me, and I grin right before I bury my face against the valley of her large breasts. I lick her soft skin as I massage her full breasts.

“Don’t worry, baby. I’ll buy you a new one.”

“You b-bet-better,” Grace breathes, the words broken as I pull a hard, pebbled peak into my mouth, flicking it with my tongue before sucking on it and teasing it lightly with my teeth. I blow against the wet tip of her nipple once I release it, sending hot breath over it and loving the way goosebumps bloom over her voluptuous tit. I massage the pale, full globe as I move to the other nipple.

Grace’s hands thrust into my hair holding my head still as she stiffens beneath me.

“Do you have any idea of how beautiful you are?” I breathe, leaning back to enjoy looking at her aroused body. I take my time drinking in the sight of her, but my cock is screaming at me to claim her.

I keep my hands on her breasts, massaging them as I place a kiss against her stomach. I flick my tongue against her bellybutton, teasing it, playing with her. I look up to find her wide, blue eyes staring down at me, her face flushed and her gaze heavy with desire. I begin nibbling along the hem of her pajamas. I bring my hands slowly down her body, letting the tips of my fingers skim across her ribs, following the line of her body until I reach her waist. I delve under the fabric in my way, looking up to smile at her.

“Seven…” She hisses through her teeth, trying to tighten her legs.

I know she’s nervous. I still my hands and place my lips against belly again. “It’s going to be okay, Gracie. I’m just going to make you feel good—make us both feel good.” She takes a shaky breath as I continue to peel the remaining clothes from her body. The scent of her arousal nearly brings me to my knees. I want to give between her legs and drink until I get my fill. I can’t do that. I need to force myself to go slow. Her breathing is labored, and I give myself a moment to admire the perfection of my mate as she is lying there, completely exposed to me.
