“Me too.” I think I’ve always known there was a shifter out in the world meant for me. It’s why I’ve avoided all relationships up until now.
He prowls over to me and pulls me back into his arms. “I need you.”
My body goes haywire as my pulse skyrockets. “Then make me yours.” I can’t imagine my life without my Bossy Bear mate, so it’s time to cement our relationship.
“I’m going to bite you here.” He runs his nose around the area at the base of my neck where my shoulder and collarbone meet. “And join our souls together for all eternity. Be sure you’re onboard with that because I’ll never let you go once you carry my mark.” He runs his tongue over the spot, sending sparks shooting through my blood. “My bear wanted me to fly to New York and kidnap you the first day we spoke on the phone, but I told the asshole to be patient. He’s chomping at the bit to finish our mating. Once I let him off his leash, all bets are off.” Sounds a tiny bit scary and a whole lot hot.
I take a deep breath and tell myself it’s time to make my move. “Then make me yours forever.” Giving the smoking hot bear shifter permission to bite me frees something in my soul.
“Once I give you my mark, our hearts and souls will bound together forever. Basically, a human wedding ceremony, except bears don’t do divorce. Ever.” I already knew all this from my sister’s relationship with a wolf shifter.
“Quit stalling and bite me already,” I groan as my patience runs out.
My Bossy Bear lifts my chin so I’m staring into his shimmering green eyes. His warm breath brushes against the side of my neck, causing my blood to boil. Kodi already owns my heart. Now, it’s time to give him my virginity, too. “What are you waiting for?” When leans back and stares into my eyes, I see the fangs protruding from his gums and feel a tiny spark of fear, but the overwhelming lust coursing through me overrides my apprehension.
Chapter 7
Kodi
“You’re the one fully dressed,” I remind Briella as I stare down into her eyes. At the thought of seeing my gorgeous mate naked, my bear awakens and fights to take control. “Take off your clothes,” I manage to growl as I wrestle my bear back into place.
My mate steps back and slowly pulls her light blue t-shirt over her head before sliding her black yoga pants down her curvy legs. My cock turns to stone and bounces against my stomach as I watch her kick away her sandals and pants.
She gives a little squeak when I lift her against my chest, and I place a soft kiss on her soft cheek before walking over to lay her on the silky black comforter.
Hunger flashes through her light blue eyes as she leans back on her elbows and stares at my shaft. I take a step back and wrap my hand around my erection.
As I slowly slide my hand up and down, her gorgeous eyes follow my every movement. She raises her eyes to meet mine and asks, “May I?”
“Touch me,” I groan and lock my knees as her soft hand tentatively wraps around my cock. My inner bear nearly loses his mind, but I keep a tight leash on my control while my mate drives me out of my mind.
When she runs her thumb across the head and gives my cock a little squeeze, I nearly come from her touch alone.
That was too fucking close, my bear growls in my ear as I step back out of her reach.
“Hey,” she grumbles in complaint.
“I’ll let you play after I’ve fucked your sweet pussy five or six times.”
She blinks up at me. “Five or six times? Tonight?”
“At least.” I’ve been waiting an eternity to find my soulmate, and it’s going to take a long time to quell the hunger coursing through me.
At least, she mouths before adding, “I’m going to need to take some vitamins or something to keep up with you.”
“Don’t worry, Beauty. I’ll take it easy on you the first time or two,” I promise, knowing I’d never do anything to hurt my mate.
“Uh…” She bites her bottom lip. “There’s something you should know.”
“Please, don’t tell me you want to stop.” I’m not above begging at this point.
“No.” She shakes her head vigorously. “But I’ve never done this before.”
“I know. The eternal mates the universe chooses for shifters are always untouched.”
“Oh.” She stretches like a little kitten, and I almost come on the spot watching her. “That’s good to know.”
I prowl over to the bed, staring at my mate’s gorgeous, curvy body. All the blood in my body rushes straight for my cock as I crawl over her luscious curves, leaving little kisses along her the way. My slow progress pisses my inner bear off, but I ignore the fucker’s complaints and continue my exploration.
