“Tristan?” Dante asked.
The fae shook his head and stuffed his hands in his pockets. “Not this time. I have…things to do.”
With that, Tristan turned toward the exit and left without another word. Levi blinked at the spot where his friend once stood and frowned.
“Any idea what that was about?” Dante asked.
“I might have an idea, but I honestly don’t know for sure.” Either way, it wasn’t his place to ask until Tristan came to him for help…if he could help at all.
“I like him. He isn’t as stuffy as most of the fae I know.”
Levi rolled his eyes. “This, coming from a dragon.”
“True. Okay, see you tonight. My mates are waiting for me, and I think there was a mention of honey.”
Levi laughed and made his way to where he’d open a portal home. “Too much information, dragon. Way too much.”
Dante just grinned and flicked his tongue ring against his tooth. “I’m one lucky bastard.”
“I’m one hell of a lucky one, too.”
They said their goodbyes, and Levi sent himself through the portal so he could go home. Home, for the moment, was the one in the wizard realm because of the girls. However, they hadn’t gotten rid of Faith’s place. Levi wasn’t sure they would since it held so many memories for his mate. It was always good to have another home in a realm they frequented. Plus, he didn’t want to pull Faith away from everything in her past. She was worth so much more than that.
He closed the front door behind him then almost swallowed his tongue.
Faith stood at the entrance to the hallway leading to the bedrooms, her hair tousled, her makeup done to enhance her eyes and lips, and she was wearing the sheerest black lace number he’d ever seen in his life. She had one hand on each wall, her legs crossed, and those sexy-as-hell black pumps would definitely be staying on when he fucked her.
“Holy hell, Faith. This is the best welcome home ever.”
She winked then uncrossed her legs and did a slow turn. She looked over her shoulder and wiggled her ass. “I figured you needed a reward for enduring the Conclave meeting.”
He wasn’t about to tell her that things went relatively well. Fuck no. Right then, he wanted his reward.
She strutted toward the bedroom, and he quickly stripped off his clothes as he followed her. He was surprised he hadn’t tripped over his own feet as he stepped out of his pants on his way, but damn it, he was determined.
He was just stripping off his boxer briefs when he made it inside the bedroom, this time groaning. Faith stood at the edge of the bed, her hands on her hips.
“Took you long enough,” she teased. “I can see you’re up for the occasion though.”
He fisted his cock and prowled toward her. “You want to be on top today? Or is it my turn?”
She licked her lips and cupped her breasts. “It’s your turn, but I’m not sure you’re ready for me.”
He growled then cupped her neck, running his thumb along her chin. “Open for me.”
She parted her lips, and he crushed his mouth to hers. She moaned, clutching his arms. She tasted of spice and his. He nibbled on her lips then moved to her jaw and behind her ear. She rocked against him, wrapping one leg around his so he could feel her heat. Fuck, he loved this woman, loved everything about her. She was just so damn sexy.
He pulled away and fisted his cock again. “On your knees.”
She grinned then did as he asked. He held her shoulder to make sure she didn’t fall in her heels, but he did notice she was damn skilled in those shoes. With one hand around the base of his cock, she pumped once, twice, and then cupped his balls. He sucked in a breath and traced her cheek.
“Suck all of me, Faith of mine.”
“Are you going to make me come if I do?”
“I’m going to make you come more than once as long as I can have your pretty mouth around my cock.”
She licked up his length, her gaze on his, before she opened her mouth and swallowed him whole. Again, she couldn’t take him all, but what she couldn’t swallow, she gripped in her hands. She worked him, teasing him with her tongue and licking the slit at the tip of his dick when she came up for breath. The warmth of her mouth was almost too much to bear, but he didn’t want to come right then.
He pulled away, and she licked her lips. “I want to come in your cunt, not your mouth.” He might have a wizard’s recovery time, but he didn’t want to wait to have his mouth on her. “As much as I love what you’re wearing. I want you naked.”
She let out a small laugh then gasped as he stripped her with a quick efficiency. “I see you left my shoes on,” she said dryly.
“I like the heels. They’re going to feel fucking awesome digging into my back when I fuck you. Put one leg over my shoulder,” he said when he knelt in front of her. He gripped her hips then latched onto her clit, sucking it into his mouth and teasing the bud with his tongue.
She tangled her fingers in his hair, pressing him closer to her cunt. He took that as invitation and sucked and licked down her pussy, fucking her with his tongue. He kept her balanced with one hand then took his other and speared her with three fingers. Her pussy clenched around his fingers as she came on one stroke.
“Levi!”
He pulled back, his fingers still working. “Come one more time, pixie, and then I’ll fuck you with my cock. Come on, Faith. Play with your nipples. Help me make you come.”
“Can’t do it on your own, can you?” she taunted then shook when he rubbed her G-spot.
“Don’t tease or I’ll draw it out.”
She did as she was told and kept her gaze on him. Her body shook, and her eyes darkened when he pressed one more time on that bundle of nerves. Her mouth parted, and he had to quickly move his hands so he could catch her as she came again.
“Your knees give out, baby?”
“Don’t call me baby,” she panted.
He kissed her hard then moved her so she lay face down on the edge of the bed. “Grip the sheets and spread your legs.”
She did so quickly, and he smiled. She might taunt, but she wanted him as much as he wanted her.
He gripped her hips and plunged into her in one stroke. They both shouted, but before he could take the next breath, he pulled out then pumped back into her, moving at a hard pace.
“Who am I, Faith? Who am I?”
She looked over her shoulder at him, her breath coming in pants. “A fucking wizard who likes fucking me hard.”
He grinned then rotated his hips, slamming into her even harder. “Who am I?”
“Levi!” she screamed.
“Who am I, Faith?”
He pulled out of her then rolled her over on her back. Before she could answer, he slid into her again, this time keeping her legs spread as wide as possible.
“You’re mine! My mate. My everything.”
He leaned down and took her mouth, pumping into her. His back tingled, and his balls tightened. He was so fucking close it wasn’t even funny.
“You’re mine, Faith, just like I’m yours. You’re my mate, Faith. My everything.”
He slammed into her once more and came, filling her up. Her cunt clamped onto him as she came as well. Her nails raked down his back, and he captured her lips in an unforgiving kiss.
“Love you, Faith,” he whispered.
“Love you too, Levi.” She blinked back tears, and he frowned. He rolled to the side, keeping himself deep inside her, and brushed back the single tear that had fallen down her cheek.
“What’s wrong, my love?”
“Thank you for taking me.”
“You mean just then?” he asked, confused as hell.
She let out a laugh and shook her head. “No. Well, thank you for that. I mean thank you for taking me as yours. Thank you for giving up your future and binding your soul to mine when you didn’t even know me. Thank you for saving my life and being the man that I never knew I wanted. Thank you for giving me the life I never knew
I wanted. Thank you, Levi. Thank you for being mine.”
He swallowed hard then kissed her softly. “You don’t need to thank me for any of that. I will always be grateful for having you in my life. I didn’t take a chance. I didn’t risk anything. We might not have done things in the order we should have, but we ended up where we needed to be. Together.”
She grinned then kissed his chin. “I think I should be on top this time.”
He laughed then rolled onto his back, his dick perking up at her words. “Anything you desire, my pixie.”
She rolled her hips and winked at him. “Better get used to saying that, wizard. For a long fucking time.”
“For eternity if I have anything to say about it.” He lifted his hips, and they both moaned.
He might have been the wizard, but he was utterly enchanted by the pixie in his life and soul. The fierceness of their love and the path to their future had shown him that happy endings weren’t filled with easy decisions and rainbows, but with sacrifice; love transcended realms.
He had his Faith.
He didn’t need anything else.

About Carrie Ann and her Books
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan never thought she’d be a writer. Not really. No, she loved math and science and even went on to graduate school in chemistry. Yes, she read as a kid and devoured teen fiction and Harry Potter, but it wasn’t until someone handed her a romance book in her late teens that she realized that there was something out there just for her. When another author suggested she use the voices in her head for good and not evil, The Redwood Pack and all her other stories were born.
Carrie Ann is a bestselling author of over twenty novels and novellas and has so much more on her mind (and on her spreadsheets *grins*) that she isn’t planning on giving up her dream anytime soon.

From New York Times Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan’s Redwood Pack Series
Wicked Wolf
There were times to drool over a sexy wolf.
Sitting in the middle of a war room disguised as a board meeting was not one of those times.
Gina Jamenson did her best not to stare at the dark-haired, dark-eyed man across the room. The hint of ink peeking out from under his shirt made her want to pant. She loved ink and this wolf clearly had a lot of it. Her own wolf within nudged at her, a soft brush beneath her skin, but she ignored her. When her wolf whimpered, Gina promised herself that she’d go on a long run in the forest later. She didn’t understand why her wolf was acting like this, but she’d deal with it when she was in a better place. She just couldn’t let her wolf have control right then—even for a man such as the gorgeous specimen a mere ten feet from her.
Today was more important than the wants and feelings of a half wolf, half witch hybrid.
Today was the start of a new beginning.
At least that’s what her dad had told her.
Considering her father was also the Alpha of the Redwood Pack, he would be in the know. She’d been adopted into the family when she’d been a young girl. A rogue wolf during the war had killed her parents, setting off a long line of events that had changed her life.
As it was, Gina wasn’t quite sure how she’d ended up in the meeting between the two Packs, the Redwoods and the Talons. Sure, the Packs had met before over the past fifteen years of their treaty, but this meeting seemed different.
This one seemed more important somehow.
And they’d invited—more like demanded—Gina to attend.
At twenty-six, she knew she was the youngest wolf in the room by far. Most of the wolves were around her father’s age, somewhere in the hundreds. The dark-eyed wolf might have been slightly younger than that, but only slightly if the power radiating off of him was any indication.
Wolves lived a long, long time. She’d heard stories of her people living into their thousands, but she’d never met any of the wolves who had. The oldest wolf she’d met
was a friend of the family, Emeline, who was over five hundred. That number boggled her mind even though she’d grown up knowing the things that went bump in the night were real.
Actually, she was one of the things that went bump in the night.
“Are we ready to begin?” Gideon, the Talon Alpha, asked, his voice low. It held that dangerous edge that spoke of power and authority.
Her wolf didn’t react the way most wolves would, head and eyes down, shoulders dropped. Maybe if she’d been a weaker wolf, she’d have bowed to his power, but as it was, her wolf was firmly entrenched within the Redwoods. Plus, it wasn’t as if Gideon was trying to make her bow just then. No, those words had simply been spoken in his own voice.
Commanding without even trying.
Then again, he was an Alpha.
Kade, her father, looked around the room at each of his wolves and nodded. “Yes. It is time.”
Their formality intrigued her. Yes, they were two Alphas who held a treaty and worked together in times of war, but she had thought they were also friends.
Maybe today was even more important than she’d realized.
Gideon released a sigh that spoke of years of angst and worries. She didn’t know the history of the Talons as well as she probably should have, so she didn’t know exactly why there was always an air of sadness and pain around the Alpha.
