Did he want her?
“I promised myself I’d give you time, that I’d let you get used to me.”
“Time is overrated,” she said. Placing her hands on his chest, she felt his rapidly beating heart. So powerful as it thumped beneath her fingers.
“I’m glad you said that.”
Chapter Five
Liam couldn’t keep away.
Jake had been right. The longer he spent apart from Rebecca, the more feral he became. His wolf was agitated beyond recognition, desperate for its mate. Their mate.
He kissed her in the middle of the kitchen, and she clung to him, his shirt bunched up in her little fists. The scent of her desire was potent, perfuming the air in a dizzying fog that had him nearly salivating for her pussy. Her sweet, virgin pussy.
“You smell sweet.”
“It’s my strawberry shampoo. I just took a shower.”
He released the elastic from her hair and ran a hand through her long waves. It was only slightly damp. Her shampoo had nothing to do with her feminine signature, the scent calling out to his wolf.
Rebecca may be socially awkward, but once the heat turned up, her rigidity faded away, alo
ng with her nerves. Right now, she was putty in his hands, and after going days without seeing his woman, his body was pent up and hard for her.
Her tits pressed against his chest, soft and tempting. He’d been dreaming about stripping her naked and drowning in her softness. All he knew was she had to be marked by him. Until she was properly claimed, he’d obsess over another male stealing her away. His wolf demanded he fuck her and brand her with his bite.
“Forget the tea,” he said. He leaned over and turned off the stove. “I’d much rather have you for a snack.” Liam nipped her earlobe, before suckling it into his mouth. She moaned and tossed her head back.
“That feels good,” she whispered.
“Then you’re in for a surprise, beauty.” He’d wanted to take her home and fuck her in his own bed now that his packmates had moved out of the house. But he had no doubt it would be happening here and now.
Liam teased her erogenous zones, determined to get her deeper into that sweet spot.
“I—I’m not good at this,” she stammered. “I’ve never done any of this before.”
“I’ll teach you everything you need to know.” He reached around and cupped her ass cheek. She had lush curves he could grab hold of. He squeezed the soft flesh. “Just relax for me.”
It would be a challenge claiming a virgin when he wanted to fuck her hard and fast. He’d have to take his time, easing her into life as a mated woman. Liam wouldn’t have it any other way, though. Knowing she was untouched by other males pleased him more than he imagined. His claim of ownership would be uncontested.
She held onto his biceps as he kissed along her jawline and neck, unable to get enough of her. When she started testing his muscles, he stepped back briefly and tugged off his t-shirt. “I’m all yours. Don’t be shy.” He took her hands and placed them on his chest, loving how her hands felt on his skin. She smoothed her fingers up over his shoulders, her eyes wandering all over his body. As she trailed her hands back down, she stopped at his belt and looked up at him.
“Your muscles are hard.” She squeezed his arms again. “Strong.”
“All the better to protect my woman.” He tilted her chin up. “And you are my woman, Rebecca. You, this body, it’s all mine.”
She swallowed hard, but her desire didn’t diminish.
“I’ll never let anyone hurt you.”
“I can’t believe this is happening.” Rebecca painted a fingertip down his chest as she bit her lower lip. Liam loved that she couldn’t keep her hands to herself.
He grabbed her wrist. “I know you’re new to this, but I don’t think you understand the power you have over me. Every touch. Every move. You drive me crazy.”
“I’m not trying to.”
“You don’t have to try. All I can think about is stripping you naked. Filling you with my cock.” He reached between them and cupped her pussy through her pants. She gasped, bracing his shoulders.
