Black Wolfe's Mate (Paranormal Shifter Romance)
became more animal than human.
    “Derrriiiccckkk,” she rasped, her voice a rough purr. “Yes,” he answered in a husky growl as he began his own shift, waiting until the last possible moment so he could continue to speak to her in the way she was most accustomed.
    “Your Derrick, Angelica. Only yours.”
    Her fangs lengthened, perfect and white, as she threw her head back and howled. Her silky hair spread, covering her entire body until she glistened in radiant gold. A rainbow of silver, gold, and every hue in between shimmered around her as her form changed and shifted, until she stood before him, a perfect she-wolf. Panting heavily, she dropped to the ground, regarding him with glowing amber and gold eyes.
    “You are breathtaking,” he breathed, her she-wolf far beyond anything he could have dreamed. Small, yet sleek — perfectly proportioned for speed and grace.
    No longer able to contain the change, he shifted into his wolf form in a burst of blue and black. She whimpered, and he scented her fear.
    He growled softly — as gently as a wolf could — and lowered his massive snout, nuzzling her. He licked her face, butting her in soft demand until she licked him in return.
    Then he rose and stood before her, magnificent and proud. He lifted his head and growled. This time, not in warning, but promise.

    P ain. So much pain .
    Angelica awoke in pure agony. It felt as if her body was being torn apart. Blood boiled in her veins, bones popped and realigned themselves, muscles pulled and stretched to their limits. And then, when she thought she could not endure another moment, it stopped just as quickly as it had begun.
    Weak and breathless, she dropped to the ground and tried to take in her surroundings.
    This new world was so strange. Familiar, yet...not. She recognized things around her: the sand, the palm trees, the wind, the ocean — but they were different. Things looked different, as if someone had just given her a new pair of glasses and she was seeing clearly for the first time. They smelled different, too — a thousand times more powerful than before. In the air alone, she scented a hundred new unique and wondrous things.
    And then, there was Him . That magnificent beast with fur like thick black threads of the finest silk and eyes bluer than the clearest summer day. His cold nose prodded her, licked her, and nipped her, until she gave him her full attention — until this new, amazing world consisted of nothing but him.
    Yes, he was her world. He was everything.
    He rose before her, a huge, magnificent beast, and growled his demand. He wanted something. Needed something. Something only she could give him. Oh, she wanted to please him, but how? She whimpered and licked him in response.
    He growled again, a rumbling command her mind could not comprehend, but her body did. A deep ache in the center of her body, an urgent demand that had to be fulfilled, a bond that must be forged. He turned in the moonlight, revealing his desire for her. Her eyes widened at the sight of him; another whimper escaped.
    She answered him, a soft purr of submission. Instinctively, she lifted her haunches, offering herself to him.
    Blue eyes blazed with approval. He padded on silent feet behind her until she felt his hot breath on the most feminine part of her, now swollen and sensitive. She whimpered again and moved her hindquarters to entice him, lure him.
    He growled in warning, a low sound commanding her to stop. She lifted her behind again, in invitation and defiance.
    A huge paw swiped at her hip, holding her in place as his nose nuzzled between her legs...
    * * *
    D errick filled his lungs with her scent. Soon, she would bear his as well.
    He gave her a long, lingering lick and she nearly collapsed. A feminine howl of pure torment released, leaving him stiff and aching with the need to claim her as his mate.
    He mounted her, penetrating her with the force of the Alpha he was. As a man, he would spend the rest of his life
