her flesh. Lucy’s blood hit his tongue, and
he tasted the power inside her veins. She was strong, and all his.
The power had his wolf rearing back, and Caleb did at
the same time, howling at the sky. The sun beamed down on them, but it didn’t
matter. He pounded inside her, fucking her harder than ever before, going as
deep as he could. Every single wolf within the pack would know who she belonged
to, and now that he’d mated her, he couldn’t be parted from her. She would have
to move in with him, or he’d have to move in with her parents. His wolf, and
himself, wouldn’t be away from her.
His father never left his mother for long periods of
time. It was the blessing and the curse of the wolves that mates had to stay
together. They were stronger together than apart.
He fucked her harder, pulling his cock out, only to
slam all the way back inside her. Over, and over, he pounded into her tight
pussy, and Lucy arched up against him, taking all of him.
His orgasm built and he couldn’t hold it back, nor
could he hold it in. Slamming inside her one final time, he erupted, filling
her with his cum. He didn’t want to pull away from her. Keeping his arms
wrapped around her, he picked her up, and carried her toward the creek.
“What are you doing? You’re going to drop me.”
His dick was still inside her, and he wasn’t going to
drop her. As he lowered them into the water, Lucy gasped.
“It’s cold.”
“You better hold onto me. I’m not cold, and I’ll keep
you warm.” Wolves ran hotter than most other species.
She held onto him, and when he looked at her neck, he
saw his mark was deep in her flesh. He’d marked her good. No one would doubt
they were mated.
“I meant what I said.”
“Huh?” she asked.
“I’m not going to hide who we are. I want you. You
want me.”
“Caleb?”
“No, I’m not going to hide us. We’re mates, and I’m
not going to let anyone take that away from us.”
“You’re being serious.”
“I’m always serious, baby. You should know that by
now. I’m not going to hide who we are to each other. We’re mates, and I’m proud
to call you mine.”
She bit her lip, and he wanted to bite it, too.
“You can’t hide who you are to me. The pack would smell
me on you, and they’d see the mating mark that I gave you.”
“You were pretty determined, weren’t you?”
“Of course.”
“Do you think Guy has claimed Bianca?” she asked.
“If he has any sense, he has.” He caressed the scar
that was on her back.
“You really sat with me after I fell out of the tree?”
“Yes, I did. Our parents were worried about you.”
“Even your parents?”
“Yes.” He didn’t know if he could tell her how
important she was to the pack, or how much danger she was in. His father hadn’t
told him that he could be completely honest with her.
With Lucy in his arms, and them now mated, he felt the
pull to tell her the truth.
“What is it?” she asked.
“What’s what?”
“You look troubled.”
“I do?”
“You’ve got this frown down the center of your head.”
She placed a finger against the line. “What has you frowning?”
“It’s nothing.”
“Don’t lie to me.”
“I’m not. We’ve got to figure out what we’re going to
do.”
“Our parents.”
“Yeah, they’re going to want to know. They’ll know the
moment we enter town again.”
“You don’t regret having a witch as a mate?”
“No. I think it’s hot. I love it when your eyes go all
black.”
She chuckled, and again, he loved hearing the sound.
He wanted to hear her laugh more often.
Caleb tensed up as he heard noise in the distance.
There was a threat to Lucy out there. Covens of witches and warlocks could
discover she was alive, and try to take her from him. He couldn’t live without
her, and even his wolf was on the alert.
She’s ours.
We protect her at all costs.
He’d die for her.
He loved her.
It was as simple as that.
