Free Drawn (Moon Claimed) by Lilou Roux Page A

voice was deep and husky with emotion, “Hey.”
    His hand moved up to her temple, brushing away her hair so that he could get a good look at the bump there. “Ah, dammit. I’m sorry.”
    “Don’t worry about it. The headache’s gone and so will the bump . So…your mother explained the big picture and I read the books and stuff she left for me.”
    “And?”
    “It’s still weird and feels totally crazy…but I saw you turn into a wolf and I saw her light a candle with nothing but her breath.”
    T he first hint of a smile tugged at his lips. “Yeah, that’s a rather neat talent to have around, especially when the power goes out.” His eyes grew serious again. “Do you have any questions that I might help you with? Or doubts?”
    She understood the questions in his eyes, saw the fear of rejection there, and with all her heart she longed to banish it. An idea crept up and a sexy smile spreading her lips, she looked at him from hooded eyes.
    Her voice softer and low now, she admitted, “I was wondering…I had a dream of you in wolf form. And I’d really like to test something.”
    His silver eyes flooded with gold. “Uh-uh.”
    It was the wolf in him, she realized, the wolf he didn’t have to hide from her anymore. She was surprised at how much it aroused her, the knowledge that she caused this. Drowning in those golden pools, full of love and heat for her, she found herself in heaven when he grabbed her with a growl.
    Pulling, tugging, gasping, t hey tumbled onto the ground and met each other in ecstasy.
     
    Nathan was leaning half on his side, half over her, as he reached out and tugged a leave out of her loose hair. “I really need to get you into a bed the next time.”
    Tess shrugged, a sweet smile and cute blush spreading across her face. “Actually, I kinda like having you under the moon and stars.”
    He chuckled, “Well, then, you won’t ever hear me complain again.” They stared into each other’s eyes that sparkled with love and rivaled the stars. “Marry me.”
    “Okay.”
    He searched her face. “Really? Just like that?”
    Tess laughed. “Yes, really just like that. I love you and I want to spend my life with you. So why wait?”
    Some might say it was too soon, too fast. But it was her life, her heart and her decision to make. And for Tess the most important realization was, that right here and now, lying on a cooling forest floor she was happy. For the first time in her life she felt loved, felt as if she belonged. Her dreams had brought her here, brought her to Nathan. Her journey was over…finally she was home.
    “I love you. You’re the most amazing and bravest woman I’ve ever met.”
    They kissed, taking their time and pleasure, basking in the sweetness of their promise. When their lips parted Tess left her eyes closed, savoring his taste, their love and this moment.
    Then she sighed, turning her face into the nook of his arm. “I need to tell my sister. And while she suffers from what will probably be a near heart attack I might just throw in the little tidbit about us being witches and all that.”
    “Heart attack? Will she be that mad?”
    “Erin’s very protective of me. Of course, she wants me to find someone, but I think once I tell her that I have…” She gazed up at Nathan. “She’ll really put you through the wringer.”
    “Just for that I love her already.”
    H e leaned over to kiss the tip of her nose, the corner of her mouth and then her lips, taking her worries away.
