Free The Omega's Mate: by E A Price Page B

go down.  His animal was furious at the interruption, but Cain was buzzing from their interlude.
    Yes, he wanted to mate and bond with her too, more than life itself!  But he sensed hesitation in her, not least because of his actions over the past few days.  So he was prepared to wait.  She wasn’t like the other women he had been with; she didn’t want something fast and furious, she needed tenderness and love.  It would be that much sweeter when she came to him and asked him to bond with her.
    He just hoped he could persuade his bear of that.
     
     
     
     

Chapter Eight
    Cain picked up his room key from a smirking wolf shifter, working the desk at the Bed and Breakfast.
    “Have a good evening,” chuckled the wolf, before leering and winking.
    Cain grunted at the wolf and ambled up to his room.  Things had cooled down after Rosalee arrived at the shop.  At least Carly had cooled somewhat, Cain was still hard as steel for his little mate.  He’d wanted to continue where they left off, but Carly hadn’t with her female Alpha so close by.
    Instead, Rosalee chatted about pack members while Carly listened amiably.  In spite of Cain’s overt hints and general murderous glowers, Rosalee didn’t get the message that he wanted her to leave.  Or if she did, she ignored him.
    They continued working for a couple more hours, until eventually Carly called it a day.  Rosalee finally tripped off and left them alone.  Cain walked his mate out to her car; it was a Volkswagen beetle decorated like Herbie.  God everything about her was cute .  Carly gave him a chaste kiss goodnight, before he reluctantly watched her drive away.
    Every fiber of his being told him not to let her go, to keep hold of her and kiss the hell out of her.  But again, he told himself that he must be patient.  He and his bear fucking hated himself for it, but he was going to be patient no matter what.
    Cain wrinkled his nose in disgust as he approached his door.  A pungent scent of cheap perfume assailed him.  On opening the door, the smell intensified.  Ah, shit .
    His heart almost stopped when he found Jules sprawled out on his bed.  His bear snarled.  She had to go now!  She wore tiny red, lacy underwear under the shirt he insisted she keep the last time she turned up in his bed.
    Jules leered at him.  “Hey, big guy.  Surprise!”
    Cain ran his hands through his hair.  “What are you doing here?  How did you get in?”
    Fuck!  Did other people know she was here?  Did other people see her go in his room?  Would they tell Carly?!
    Jules stroked her hands down her long legs.  “I came to see you; I missed you.”
    “How did you get in here?” he asked quietly.
    “Easy!  I told the wolf on the desk that I was you girlfriend, and I wanted to surprise you.  I slipped him twenty bucks, and he gave me a key to your room.”
    Ah crap!   That idiot on the front desk is probably part of Carly’s pack!  “You need to leave now!”
    “Awww come on... I forgive you for the other night…”
    Cain’s jaw ticked with the effort of controlling his temper.  “You’re not listening.  You need to leave.  Right now.  You can’t be here.”
    Jules spluttered in confusion.  “But I thought you wanted…”
    The bear was prowling in frustration.  “I don’t.  We can’t do this anymore.  I’ve met my mate, and I don’t want her to see you here.”
    Jules rolled off the bed and bared her fangs.  “So you’re just dumping me?  Just like that?”
    Jeez…  “I wouldn’t say dumping… it’s not like we were in a relationship.  We had fun, but we can’t have fun anymore.  I’m sorry.”
    Jules huffed.  “Fine, if that’s what you want, I’ll go!  You’ve changed your fucking tune!  You change your mind again in a week, don’t expect me to be waiting for you!  You’re not that good in bed!”
    Cain allowed her to push past him to the bathroom.  She slammed the door shut, and he could hear her irritated
