an eyebrow and smiling.
    Ares just grinned at the remark. Military-grade weapons weren’t the only kind of heat he was capable of packing.
    He tore open the package and slid it over himself, painfully aware of the fact that even the large size was confining.
    Ares came between her legs and propped himself above her. It all felt so right, so perfect that he wished he could rip the condom off and claim her right here, right now like his bear wanted. But he knew better than that, and if he wanted to win her heart, he’d have to do it piece by piece, moment by moment.
    He teased at her entrance, feeling how incredibly wet she was, and she bit her lip in anticipation. Then with one smooth motion, he slid into her slowly, filling her completely.
    At first, there was shock in Kat’s eyes. Then, as he met her hip to hip, she arched back a little and sighed with pleasure.
    “What do you think?” Ares asked.
    “Once again, so much better than I could ever have imagined,” Kat replied, looking beautiful and needy.
    He’d fulfill every desire of hers for the rest of time.
    Ares slid out and slowly pushed back in again, the sensation of being inside her beyond incredible. His mate was just the right size for him, so tight but just big enough to fit him inside, leaving them so enmeshed he didn’t know where he ended and she began.
    He moved into a slow, steady rhythm with her, and each stroke drew an exhausted, exhilarated moan from Kat’s lips. And as he thrust into her, Ares leaned down and placed kisses along the side of her neck and down onto her shoulder, worshipping her beauty with every touch.
    As if acting on instinct, Katrina began to move with him, her eyes full of lust. The second she pressed into him, Ares gasped, feeling closer than he’d ever been with her.
    He’d be damned if she made him go without her.
    Ares tensed his muscles and moved double-time, creating delicious friction between their two bodies, pumping in and out and back in. His entire body felt like it was on fire, every nerve cocked and ready to fire off in explosions of pleasure.
    When he was at the very cusp, Ares reached his hand down and rubbed over Kat’s clit once, then twice. Without hesitation, Kat jerked and tensed, and Ares felt his body come with her a moment after. He pushed all the way into her, loving the feel of their bodies together like this, riding out wave after wave of release.
    Kat’s voice carried out over the silent, unanswering forest as she cried his name to the stars over and over. His entire body felt like bolts of lightning were passing through him as he held his mate in his arms, as if he could keep her here forever if he never let go. Her own orgasm seemed more powerful than all the others, and Ares couldn’t help but feel very pleased at the thought.
    But the waves of pleasure passed eventually, leaving the two of them alone together on the soft grassy patch overlooking the small city below them. Ares slowly pulled out, cleaned up with some paper towels from the basket, and then pulled the blanket around them as he snuggled close to Kat.
    “Shouldn’t we be getting back?” Katrina asked.
    “Just a moment more. I want just a moment more with you, Kat,” Ares responded.
    With you, my mate , he thought to himself as she nestled into his arms, sighing softly with satisfaction.
    A moment would never be long enough. But life and problems and the real world waited for them back down in the city, back down in reality.
    Still, they had time for just one more moment. If they just took things one moment at a time, he had to hope everything would turn out all right.
    He loved her and would fight for her. What else mattered?
    “Ares?” Kat asked quietly, her voice vibrating against his side.
    “Yeah, sweetheart?”
    “Maybe this is crazy, but I feel safe with you,” she said. “Do you think that’s crazy? For me to let myself? For me to just spend time here not thinking about it?”
    He held her tight, his heart
