up, covered her body, hissed when the heat of her skin branded him. Past control, his claws extended. He dug them into the mattress, so he didn’t accidentally scratch her and tried to calm his breathing, to pull it back.
‘Wrap your legs around me.’ She did as he asked instantly. ‘Guide my cock inside you.’
He was so damn hard, when her fingers wrapped around him, guiding the tip to the slick opening of her pussy, he almost came there and then.
‘Oh God.’
She undulated beneath him, tried to take him all the way inside. Just like the first time, all those years ago.
‘Brace your arms against the headboard,’ he gritted out.
As soon as her arms lifted and she gripped the wooden slats above her head, he slammed into her. Tressa cried out, but her legs tightened around his hips, heels digging into his ass, and he knew he hadn’t hurt her.
‘Fuck.’
Gabe, buried his face against her throat, letting her scent, her warmth wash over him, fill him. He didn’t hold back, pounded into her, gave her everything he had, powerless to do anything else. He fucked her without mercy, stroke after powerful stroke, owning her, like he needed to. The sound of flesh meeting flesh filled the room along with their moans and gasps for breath. Then Tressa tensed, her hands coming down on his shoulders, nails digging in, her inner walls squeezing powerfully around his cock.
He covered her mouth to smother her cries, until she stopped clawing at his back and began to quiet beneath him.
His balls drew up tight, shot after shot of pleasure snaking down his spine, nailing him in the ass. He couldn’t sink his fangs into her, not yet, not the way he wanted to anyway. Beast and man growled, needing to mark her, needing to stake his claim over the female beneath him.
He pulled out of her quickly, and gripping his dick, jerked himself off hard and fast. He watched her, heavy-lidded and sated from her orgasms, and bit his lip to stop from shouting as he shot all over her tits and stomach. The sight of his come on her skin helped to ease the beast some, for now anyway.
He collapsed down beside her, cupped the smooth skin of her cheek and kissed her soft lips.
‘You’re amazing, Tress.’
‘You’re not so bad yourself.’ Her colour was high. ‘I’ve never…no one’s ever…’ she looked down at her stomach. ‘…I like it, like watching you touch yourself.’
He nuzzled her throat, nipped the tender skin there.
‘Hmm, will you do that for me? When we’re home, and I have all the time in the world to play with you. Will you touch yourself, show me how you like it?’
She swallowed audibly. ‘Yes.’
Jesus, he had to pull his shit together. Sawyer was in the next room. He didn’t have the luxury of playing out every one of his dirty fantasies with his woman, not yet, not until she and Sawyer were safe.
He pulled her under him, already hard again. ‘A lot has happened, things neither of us had any control over. But I want this, I want you…and Sawyer. I want us to be a family. As soon as my son learns to trust me, realises that I’m not going anywhere, I want us to mate. I want you to be mine.’
Tears pooled in her eyes at his words and she cupped his face.
‘Yes, God, yes. I didn’t dare hope that you…that you would want me again after everything I put you through. Jesus, I can’t believe this is happening, that you’re here. That you’re real.’
‘I’m here, baby. No matter what happens, you need to know, I’ll never let you go. Do you understand?’
She pulled him down, kissed him with a fierceness that twisted something deep inside, melted the last of the ice around his heart.
‘I don’t want to lose you again, Gabe.’
‘You won’t. I promise you that.’ Then he slid back inside her and took his time, making love to his female.
Chapter 8
Tressa woke to Gabe’s soft snores. When she opened her eyes, she had to slap a hand over her mouth so she didn’t giggle and wake them up.
