He. Was. Hooked.
“You’re beautiful,” he whispered, nuzzling under her neck. He’d meant to stop, to suggest they order dinner from room service, but the soft tremble that rolled through her body and the way she turned her head seeking his mouth again broke his control. “I can’t stop. Tell me you don’t want me to.”
Holy crap. Reduced to begging, he had to keep going. Even if it was just kissing and nothing more. He needed to touch her, needed to feel her in his arms. His cock ached, hard and ready for action. Gritting his teeth painfully, he worked to maintain control. She’s human, she doesn’t want me to behave like some animal.
Even if he was one.
Chapter Three
“God no, don’t stop.”
Mel never wanted him to stop. The instant his lips claimed hers, she’d been sunk. If anyone had told her the week before, hell even that afternoon, that she’d be in the arms of a leather-clad, tattooed rock star-wannabe, she’d have told them to piss off. She didn’t do rock stars, film stars, or any other type of star, even though her work largely depended on men like that for backing.
Aaron Rixx was so far from her type, he might as well have been from another planet. But he had something about him, an aura of bad boy she found irresistible. And hell, the guy knew what to do in a lip-lock. He kissed like the dissolute celebrity he resembled; all sex, wolves and rock and roll…the sexy promise in every glide of his tongue weakened her knees.
He’d be good in bed, everything about him screamed that, and she was so ready for a good night in the sack, although it had been so long. Would she disappoint him? She moved closer still, the worry sweeping through her as she took control, kissing him instead of the other way around. Nipping his lip, she smiled at his start of surprise. Might as well get things started.
Breaking away she admired him, loving the way his dark hair spread over the pale cushions he lay on. Lord, the man is built for sin. Absolute, decadent perfection. Holding his gaze, she slid her hand down the centre of his bare chest, taking a path between the tattoos over the toned abdominals. When she reached his belly button, he sucked in a sharp breath, watching her slide lower, his eyes darker than the night sky above them.
He arched an eyebrow when she reached the heavy buckle on his pants, playing with the silver wolf skull. “Sure you want to move so fast, kitten?”
She smiled. Typical of a bad boy rocker. A couple of initials were engraved over the buckle, and the weird, unplaceable sense of familiarity she’d had earlier gripped her again. Too many other things to think about.
Hooking a finger underneath, she pulled. The belt gave with a soft pop and she glanced up, a question in her eyes. “One-night stand, remember? Sex is kind of the point. Wild. Unbridled. Sex.” Shifting position, she laid a kiss on his bare chest after each of the last three words.
Her lips whispered over his skin, and he sucked a breath in, holding his toned stomach taut. She flicked a glance down at his crotch. Oh yeah, she had his attention all right, all of it if the hard outline under the leather was any indication. In case he needed more persuasion, she bent her head, grazing her teeth over the head of his cock through the leather.
“Fuck!”
He surged to his feet, the word nothing less than a growl, managing to scoop her up in his arms on the way.
“Aaron, put me down! I’m too heavy!” she squeaked, clutching at his shoulders for support.
“Not a chance, kitten.” He shook his head, hair dancing over his shoulders and strode toward an open door to the side of the balcony. “Tonight you’re mine to pleasure, and it pleases me to carry you.”
Excitement gripped her low, her pussy clenching hard when she saw where they were headed. His room, shrouded in shadows. He stepped through it into velvety darkness. Instinct had her clinging to him, widening her eyes to see clearly in the little light from the windows. An enormous bed loomed in the dimness, the sheets dark. He made his way straight to it, not bothered by lack of light.
It made sense. A werewolf would be able to see as well in the dark as in daylight, if not better. He paused by the edge of the bed and set her down. Not the normal bend, put her feet on the floor and make sure she had her balance so that she didn’t face-plant sort of motion. Instead he kept a hard arm around her waist and let her legs go. Holding her close, he slid her down the front of his body, arching back to take all her weight.
She held his gaze, feeling everything. Every hard plane of muscle. The thick length of his arousal pressed against her soft belly. He was going to fuck her. Fill her again and again with that deliciously hard cock, every inch of it. A shiver rolled from head to toes. She couldn’t wait.
Drawing in a sharp breath, he let it out with a rumbled growl—the sexiest thing she’d ever heard. Her vision near to useless in the dim room, what she could see of his face would have scared her any other time; his expression drawn in feral lines. Any other time. Right then it only fuelled the fire deep within, a lazy heat uncoiling, ensuring her body danced to the tune of the blazing arousal thrumming through her.
“God…kitten, you sure know how to turn a guy on,” he murmured, holding her close to bury his lips in the curve of her neck. His stubble abraded her skin, but she didn’t complain, savouring the shiver of pleasure. What would that stubble feel like other places…?
She managed a reply from somewhere, one way too breathy for her liking. “I’m glad you think so.”
He found the zipper on the back of her dress and tugged. The fastening gave, a slow rasp preceding the cool wash of air over her skin. “Not think,” he corrected. “Know. Fact.”
Rocking his hips, he offered the thick length of his erection as evidence, dotting a trail of light kisses over her shoulder. When the zipper reached the bottom of its run, he nipped lightly. Sharper than human canines pressing into her skin but not breaking it. Heat and lust roared through her, hurtling her right to the edge. She gasped, wriggling against him. Fuck, if he did that to her with a few kisses, what would it be like when he had her on the bed?
Naked. Both of them naked. Entwined. Skin on skin.
She whimpered.
“Shhh…It’s okay, kitten. I won’t hurt you. Never hurt you,” he promised, misinterpreting her distress and cupping her face so he could look into her eyes.
“Yeah…I know.”
She trailed her fingers along his sides, under the shirt, then moved to ease her hand between them. He groaned, holding the back of her head as she stroked his balls through the soft leather. It wasn’t enough. She wanted skin.
“Perhaps I want to hurt you though, just a little,” she whispered, nipped the full lower lip and used his start of surprise to push inside. Finding his tongue, she wrapped her own around it and sucked. A growl reverberated through his chest. Any other time a growling were might have worried her, but not there. Not with him. There was something about him. Something about the way he looked at her…hot as Hades, and twice as sexy. As though he’d go to the ends of the earth for her and protect her from anything.
“You do?”
She smiled at the catch in his voice. Male wolves always liked to be in charge…but her sources told her most wanted that rare female that challenged them. Not let them get their own way all the time, make it interesting. Right then, she had a whole lot of interesting planned.
“Yeah. In a good way though.”
She shoved his shirt off his shoulders, pinning his upper arms and stood on tiptoe to place a soft bite on his shoulder. Her attentions wandered across the satin skin of his chest. She’d expected a werewolf to be hairy but his smooth chest only had a tiny swirl of hair around each nipple. Working her way down, she flicked her tongue over one of the flat discs in a wet swipe. He growled again, tension humming through him as though holding himself in check, and allowed her to play. For now. Her time would soon run out and he’d hurry things on.
“Oh, God, yes….” His head dropped back, exposing the strong column of his throat in a response she hadn’t expected. Even with her limited
knowledge of werewolves, everything about him screamed Alpha male. So, baring his throat…. She didn’t comment, instead started to undo his pants. The buckle hung loose and she flicked the top fastener free then licked at his nipple.
With an explosive snarl of lust, he lunged, wrapping his arms around her and tumbling them backward. Before she finished her gasp, he’d pinned her under his hard body. Squinting her eyes to adjust to the darkness, she could make out his face, his hair around it like a dark halo. The word fit. A fallen angel, he’d been dropped from the heavens to ravage her.
Ohgodyesplease. If there was any ravaging to be done, she needed it then. Like really need it now. Her pussy clenched again, the heat of her arousal flooding, dampening her panties in a scalding rush.
With a deep breath rumbling in his chest, he claimed her mouth again. The hard, dominant kiss parted her lips, his tongue driving inside to tangle with hers. He swept a hand between them and the front catch between her breasts gave, the bra disappearing behind her. Her nipples rubbed against the hot satin of his chest and puckered, and she moaned.
Breaking away, he nuzzled the side of her neck and pushed a knee between her legs, pressing her thighs apart to settle between them. He surrounded her, his heat and presence dominating her world.
Leather rubbed her inner thighs, igniting the nerve endings, heat spiralling through her to settle into a hard knot in her pussy. She whimpered again. It was all too much, yet not enough…from the brush of his long hair, his mouth on the curve of her shoulder, to the pulse of his cock against her satin-covered mons.
Every touch, every glide of skin on skin coiled her body further. Her nipples ached as he hunched over her. Warm breath whispered over the peaks and she held her breath, anticipation holding her in thrall. His tongue swept over her in a hot, wet rasp and she groaned, driving her fingers into his hair to hold him to her breasts. He paid them attention, kissing and licking until she nearly lost her mind with need, writhing beneath him on the bed.
“That’s it, kitten, let me hear you,” he urged, sliding lower.
She flinched, holding back a moan at the sensual assault of his short stubble over her skin. More heat flooded her lower body and her cheeks burned. She’d never had such a reaction to a guy before…such a wet, needy reaction. Never had the sheer desire to have him inside her. Filling her. Fucking her.
“Please…Aaron.” A begging note filled her voice but she didn’t care. She needed everything he could give her.
“Shhh…I got you.”
He pressed a quick kiss to the damp satin of her panties before forcing her thighs wider to accommodate his broad shoulders. Though not as broad as some of the sports players she ogled on the sly, when he settled over her, between her legs, she realised how big he was. How masculine. In every way they were opposites…hard against soft. Rough to smooth. Big versus small. The differences thrilled and excited her, and she waited with bated breath, sparks freewheeling through her. He didn’t make her wait long. Curling his long fingers under her thong underwear, with a quick yank and the sharp bite of the side straps, they were gone. Her stomach quivered, her heart thundering as the writhing mass of desire within reacted to his actions.
He stroked his hands up the inside of her thighs. Large, callused hands. Strong. Sexy. She shivered, wide open and vulnerable. A cool breath washed over her pussy, dragging another moan from her. He swept his tongue over her. A hot swipe of pure, wet pleasure.
He located her clit and the moan became a whimper. Licking and circling until she arched under him, unable to keep still. Then he spread his hand over her lower stomach, holding her motionless, as he chuckled in the back of his throat. The sound vibrated against her clit and she almost went over the edge.
“Stay with me, kitten.” He pulled back to kiss along the seam of her hip and thigh. “You’re so wet…. Pretty, pink. God, you taste fantastic….”
Pushing her knees up, he hooked her legs over his shoulders, holding her open for his mouth and tongue. Biting her lip to keep from begging, demanding, and screaming all at once, she reached out, holding onto the ornate headboard above her.
She needed it to anchor her.
Without warning, he pushed a finger into her again and they both groaned. She turned her head, hiding her face in the crook of her arm. He pumped, the lazy motion causing a delicious friction that sent quivers through her. God, that felt good…better than good. Amazing.
“Tight…you’re so tiny. I’m scared I’ll hurt you.” He turned to rest his forehead on her thigh, his whisper almost tormented. “But I can’t stop….”
“Don’t then,” she begged, meeting his thrust with her hips. He couldn’t, she’d go crazy if he did. He pulled out and she blew out a quick breath, panic filling her that he’d changed his mind. Decided that screwing a human, more fragile than the women of his species, was a bad idea.
“Oh, God, Aaron, please, I can take it. You won’t hurt me.”
He didn’t answer. Instead thrust two thick, long digits deep inside her. Twisting and scissoring, he stretched the channel, preparing her.
“I can’t…won’t.”
He latched onto her clit and sucked, forcing a scream from her, then rubbed, finding her sweet spot. Hot, liquid need flooded her again and she bucked against him as he drove her up and over the edge without mercy. She came, hard, pleasure cascading like a waterfall, crashing over her. Yanking his hand back, he buried his tongue deep in her cunt to collect every drop of her arousal, low rumbles and snarls erupting from his throat, the vibrations prolonging her pleasure.
Finally withdrawing, he crawled up her body, his movements feverish and uncontrolled. Ripping at his crotch, he opened the leathers. The blunt, broad head of his cock pressed against her entrance and she moaned.
“Oh, God, yes.”
He started to push, then froze. Her heart lurched. What was wrong? Had he changed his mind?
“Shit…I forgot the condom.”
He moved as if to withdraw but she stopped him, relief surging through her. Under normal circumstances, she’d have freaked out. But they had something…a connection between them that told her everything was perfect.
“No, stay with me. Don’t worry about it. I’m on birth control.”
“Kitten, I’m not bothered about getting you pregnant. If I let me, I’d claim you forever and give you as many kids as you wanted.” His expression serious, he added, “But you don’t know my history. It’s about protecting you. How can you be sure I’m clean?”
She tried to ignore the urge to move. To wriggle, push against him and end the discussion. “Are you?”
“Well, yes. Of course. But that’s not the point here.”
His concern melted her heart. Half the men she’d known would have said, to hell with it, and she expected a guy like him to do the same. The whole, bad boy rocker thing. Didn’t they leave a trail of broken hearts and kids behind them?
He held her gaze, the look on his face serious and kind of cute. Pain flittered across his expression as she unwrapped her hold on him. “God, kitten. Don’t look at me like that or I won’t be responsible for my actions.”
Closing his eyes, he slid from her hold, reaching into his pocket for his wallet. With a shaky hand, he retrieved a silver packet. The wallet hit the floor somewhere around the bed as he ripped the foil open to sheath his cock quickly.
Then he returned, easing over her, and she parted her thighs eagerly. The hot, thick tip of his erection stretched her and she moaned, welcoming his penetration. Driving into her in one, hard thrust, he forced her to accept him, seating himself to the balls. She stiffened at the intrusion, breathing with care as she got used to the fullness. If she hadn’t been ready, she wouldn’t have been able to take him.
He buried his face in her neck, panting, his body taut and controlled above her.
“Please, kitten, hold still, or this’ll be fucking quick,” he said, his shaky voice strained.
Her heart went out to him. “Aaron?”
&n
bsp; “What?”
“It’s cool. Now shut the hell up and screw me, okay?” Tightening her vaginal muscles around him, she rocked her hips to seal the deal. Heat and darkness flooded his eyes, and deep inside her his cock jerked.
A heavy shudder racked his body and the floodgates opened. Pulling back, he surged into her again, setting up a hard, fast rhythm. Fucked her as she’d asked with long, fast strokes. He didn’t let up, wrapping a big hand around her thigh and yanking it over his hip.
She moaned at the new angle and tightness. She wouldn’t last long, not surrounded by him, loving her with everything he had. Pleasure rose like a tsunami, sweeping away everything in its path. She clung to him, matching him thrust for thrust until….
He pulled out and paused, dropped a kiss on her lips then drove in again. The rock of his hips at the end of the thrust sent her hurtling over the edge with a scream. Ecstasy crashed, ripping through every cell, shattering her. Her cunt spasmed around his cock in waves, and he swore, slamming into her over and over. His movements became jerky, uncoordinated until he drove into her a final time.
Every muscle locked and he howled, the sound triumphant and very male as he came. She moaned, his climax continuing her own until his cock stopped jerking. He collapsed, his arms bracketing her shoulders. The fact they were locked together didn’t bother her. Wrapping her arms around him, she smiled and her eyes fluttered closed. She’d happily stay there for days…months. Perhaps even forever, her heart whispered, if he wanted her to.
Epilogue
Morning dawned bright and early, but Mel missed it. When she finally cracked her eyes open, the clock showed half past ten. Way later than she usually woke. On a normal day she woke by five, ready and raring to get out to whatever dig she currently worked on.
Bolting upright, she blinked, registering the room…. How in hell have I slept so long? It wasn’t her room. Someone had placed her clothes in a neat pile on a boudoir chair and her cheeks burned. The heat rose a little more as she recognised the black shirt next to them. A man’s shirt.
