Once I was done with her leg, I moved to her arm. I sucked each finger into my mouth taking them in all the way. Her writhing and moaning ratcheted my desire up a notch. I kissed and licked my way up her arm and over her shoulder. I ran my tongue up her neck and around the outside of her ear. I blew my hot breath into her ear. “Please Jericho.” She said leaving me to decide what it was she wanted and if I would give it to her now or make her wait. My cock throbbed and jerked against my belly. I was as ready as she was. I just couldn’t wait. There would be time to go slower later. I repositioned myself between her heated thighs. I was shaking with need like a young wolf who had just discovered sex for the first time. My she wolf had that effect on me.
I hoped I wouldn’t explode on entry and embarrass myself. I tried to keep half my mind on things that weren’t sexy like finding Seymour and ripping his claws out one by one instead of what I was doing which was getting ready to fuck the most desirable she wolf of them all. I was ready to lock my cock into her moist warmth. I lined up and eased in. Oh, fuck that felt good. I had forgotten how amazing and tight she was. Her muscles clamped down on me once I was fully seated. I almost came right then. I slowly pulled out almost all the way and slid back in just as slowly. My lady wolf emitted a frustrated groan. She was hot, wet, and ready to go. I slid out one more time and slammed back in over and over. “So, close, Baby.” She moaned sending a shiver through me.
“Me too. Just a little more. Cum for me, Sweetie. Cum for me now.” I said just before she froze for a second then jerked hard over and over. Her already vise like grip on my cock intensified until I thought she would tear it from my body. Suddenly I froze and started jerking too as hot sticky cum shot from me in torrents. I wrapped my arms around her tight trying to anchor both of us as we lost control of our pleasure crazed bodies. My mind filled with burst of pure elation as our bodies rolled around together lost in the joy of mutual release. I slid over on my back pulling her on top of me as the last and slightest tremors continued to run through me. Oh my goddess that was amazing!
“I love you so very much!” I whispered fervently in her ear as I held her like the precious one she was. I wanted her with me always so no one would ever take her from me again. I hadn’t been more than a few steps away from her since I had brought her back from the woods. Right now, I gloried in this closeness. I just wanted to keep myself wrapped around her and never let her go. She whispered something unintelligible and I could tell she was near sleep. I would have been happy to fuck her one more time but I was reluctant to keep her from her needed rest. I held her tight, deeply inhaling that marvelous scent that was hers alone and closed my eyes hoping we would find sleep together. We did.
Morning in all its glory woke us up by shining bright sunlight through the window. I thought of making love to my mate but the hour was later than we usually got up. She would need her coffee soon or she might get cranky. I woke her and then got up to shower and dress. I left to make her coffee assuming she would be right behind me. The coffee was done long before she dragged herself downstairs. It was unusual for her to be this tired so early. I immediately worried asking her if she had slept well. “Don’t you start on me. Everyone has an off day from time to time. Give me a break!” She said as she gulped her coffee. I thought she looked for help from the caffeine.
I was about to start cooking breakfast when Kaleb came in. He looked hungry so I fixed a lot more than I planned on. I fixed T.J.’s plate first. She loved her bacon and eggs. She dove in with real appetite. I fixed Kaleb’s plate then my own. Kaleb and I spoke about pack business as T.J. sat and listened. After a while she got bored and excused herself to work on readying the bar for business. Kaleb looked a little tired. “What have you been doing lately? You look like you could use some rest.” I said hoping to get to the heart of the matter.
“All the headway I made with Sandy disappeared once you and T.J. got together. I’m crazy about her, but she could care less about me.” Kaleb said sadly. He seemed to have a serious case of a broken heart.
“That’s nothing new. She’s always been like that. Why is it getting to you now?”
“I guess I let myself believe I had a chance. Now I don’t know how to pull back into the waiting mode I was in. I don’t know what to do. I’m sure she’s my soul mate, but all she does is run away.”
“T.J. says Sandy isn’t ready to settle down. You remember how Sandy’s mother was. She found her true love every week until something broke them apart. Sandy’s probably afraid it’ll be like that.” I told Kaleb. I wasn’t really sure what to say or do. I’d never pined for anyone but T.J. and we had worked out our problems relatively quick. Kaleb was a great guy. I hoped Sandy wouldn’t regret losing him someday. Kaleb left no happier than he was when he arrived but he was well fed. It looked like he left just in time. I saw Sandy coming in the front door as he headed out the back. She walked up to me where I sat near the small grill in the corner of the bar.
“What was Kaleb doing here?” She asked trying to act casually. I wasn’t fooled. She might push him aside but he mattered to her.
“Nothing exciting. We just had breakfast while we discussed pack business.” I said sticking as close to the truth as possible. I would never admit that we had discussed her as well. I wondered if they would ever straighten things out between them. Sandy’s childhood had left her messed up. She liked to party and have fun but true intimacy scared the hell out of her.
“Any good gossip?” She whispered conspiratorially.
“There’s nothing of any interest going on right now. Maybe next week.”
“Okay. Well, I better get to work.” I was relieved when she walked off to find T.J. so she could help her. I felt like Sandy was pumping me in order to find out what was going on with Kaleb. Kaleb was my best friend and I wasn’t going to share anything. Sandy was T.J.’s best friend so it would be wise not to tell my mate anything about Kaleb either. The phone rang so I answered it.
“Hello, Tabby’s.” I said answering the way T.J. did.
“Is T.J. around?” A soft female voice asked.
“Sure, I’ll go get her.” I answered then I went to see where she was. I found her out front talking to Sandy. It didn’t look like they were getting much done. “Phone call for you, beautiful.”
Sandy said, “I wasn’t expecting a call.” I raised a brow at her and fought to keep my face straight. She was kinda funny I had to admit. T.J. hurried to grab the phone.
I looked around for something to keep me busy so it wouldn’t be obvious I was listening in. There really wasn’t anything odd out front to pretend to study. My mate sounded excited but I wasn’t sure if it was a good or bad kind. I was sure she would tell me once she was off the phone. I hung around trying to look busy but I was sure I failed miserably. She finally said good bye and hung up. She walked over to me.
“My sister Sherona is coming for a visit.” She said smiling. It looked like it would be a good kind of excitement. I wanted her happy and having her sister visit should do that. I planned to asked Sandy what this sister was like as soon as I could get her alone away from T.J. who she was hovering near right now.
“I’m glad I’ll get to meet someone in your family. I’ll finally find out all about you.” I said hoping her sister would share a few of my mate’s secrets with me.
T.J. smiled. “Sherona knows not to share anything, sweetheart. You can beg all you want to but she won’t tell you a thing. She’s got more secrets than I do and she knows payback’s a bitch.”
I still had hope of tricking a secret or two out of her unsuspecting sister. After all I had some serious skills when it came to manipulating the average female. “Okay, Baby. Maybe she will and maybe she won’t but I will find out more about you. You never tell me anything.” My mate didn’t answer. She hurried away to unlock the door. It was time to open for customers. It would be a busy night because it was ladies’ night.
It was funny the way giving ladies a free drink got them to drop by and havi
ng a lot of ladies drew in a lot of men. The pool players were all regulars who were here most nights regardless. I helped where I could but it wasn’t really my thing. Once I was sure T.J. was out of danger I would get back to my own work during the day. For now, the risk was simply too great to leave my mate on her own. There were a couple drunks who wanted to fight that I threw out but other than that there was no danger present. My mind drifted back to Sherona. I wondered if she was like T.J. or very different. My mate had said her sister would be here in two days. It would be Saturday night, the busiest night of the week. I managed to get Sandy alone. She said Sherona had platinum blonde hair and the blackest eyes she’d ever seen. She was much taller than T.J. with a long, lean build. Sherona was outspoken and a fighter. She was a little like T.J. but a lot different too. I was actually looking forward to meeting her.
By the time we closed up, all of us were dead tired. I thought I would have to carry my mate upstairs but she managed to stay standing. It had been a good night business wise. If it continued, T.J. would need to hire another waitress. The grill had pulled in a lot of business. We had a new burger called the Sunny burger after one of T.J.’s cousins who used to fix it on their camping trips. I thought it was kinda gross but that was just me. It had blue cheese on it and a slice of fried green tomato. It was the blue cheese that I didn’t like but apparently most of the bar crowd did. It was a double decker and served with fries or chips for five bucks. I had worked the grill most of the night and when I got back to my usual work she would have to hire a cook too.
We got upstairs took a shower and fell into bed too tired to do anything but sleep. I wrapped myself around my female noticing how vulnerable she looked in her sleep. The shadows under her eyes hadn’t cleared completely from her terrible experience and I wondered if they ever would. She lay there asleep and helpless bringing out my need to protect and care for her. I had never felt this way about anyone before not even my family. Perhaps if my mother had survived I would have felt something like this for her. Someday, I suspected, our children would bring this need to defend out just as strongly. I wrapped myself around my love and let sleep take me too.
The phone rang about thirty minutes before the alarm went off. I just hated to have T.J.’s sleep cut short when she needed it so much. I caught it before a second ring hoping she wouldn’t wake fully. I turned out to be my dad and the news wasn’t good.
“Jericho, the council has called to warn us about some intel they’ve received.”
“Is it Seymour?” I asked unable to come up with any other possible threats.
“No. Seymour seems to have gone home at least for now. There’s a new group of rogues that has taken exception to all the mating with humans. They say the white wolves are more human than wolf. They want to stop any more wolves from mating with them. They say we’re watering down our blood and soon we’ll be more human than wolf too.” My father showed no emotion as he told me just the plain facts.
“That’s just great. Like we haven’t had enough trouble without more headed our way. I don’t know if I should tell T.J. or not. Her sister is coming here tomorrow. The risk will double with two of them here. Any suggestions?”
“I’ll send a couple of wolves to help you out. It shouldn’t be a hardship for them. T.J.’s sister is probably as pretty as she is. I’ve heard all the white wolves are.” I was surprised my dad said that. I guess sometimes I forgot he was a male as well as my alpha father. My mom had been gone a very long time. Still I felt uncomfortable thinking of him that way. Not because I didn’t want to think of him being interested in females, but because it made me feel guilty for all he had given up for me and my brother. We were grown now so maybe dad was planning on getting back in the game. I knew many of our she wolves found him attractive and not just because he was alpha. He looked more like my older brother than my dad. It wasn’t like it was too late for him to find his soul mate. He had loved my mom but they hadn’t been soul mates. A pack alpha needed a mate so he picked the best of what was available to him. He hadn’t regretted it. She had given him two fine sons and the best years of his life. Those were his words. He had some poetic tendencies but I only noticed them when he spoke about my mom. We said our goodbyes and I hung up. It was only a few minutes until the alarm would go off.
I shut it off but didn’t wake my sleeping lover. She was too tired and I wanted her to get a little more rest. I went downstairs to fix coffee and breakfast. Once it was done I fixed her a plate then went upstairs where she still slept. I woke her with a gentle kiss. “Breakfast is ready downstairs and I have your plate ready and a pot of coffee waiting.”
“Mm, you’re too good to be true, Baby.” She said with a sleepy smile.
“I know and I’m glad you recognize it.” I said eliciting a laugh from her.
“Oh, I do. I might even have to give you a raise if you keep working so hard in the bar.”
“I’d rather receive some personal attention from the boss.” I said suggestively. She opened her arms and I moved into them. This would start my day off right.
She gently slid her soft lips against mine. Her hands moved over my shoulders and my back. She was gently questing, looking for the right combination between easy and hard to arouse me and yet keep me calm enough to take her slowly. I stepped back and stripped so there would be no clothing between us. She took off the little she wore too. I slid into the bed beside her and moved my fingertips up her arms slowly, tantalizingly. I felt her shiver with desire. She wanted slow and easy so I would give it to her if it killed us both. I reached for a full breast that heaved as her breath sped up with desire. I felt the heft of it, slid my palm over the soft silky skin up to the hardened peak of her nipple. I squeezed it hearing her gasp at the unexpected zing that shot through her. I lowered my lips and sucked it in amazed when it hardened even more.
I moved to her other breast for a repeat performance. She moaned and wiggled trying to find my hard heat to slide inside her. I wouldn’t give in at least not this quickly. She wanted slow and slow she would get. I kissed and licked my way down her body pausing at her navel to lavish attention on it with my tongue. She writhed and moaned arching her body at me, wanting more of what I had given her. I worked down the side of her thigh then placed a hot, wet kiss just inside it below her pussy. She jerked and moaned louder than before.
“Do you want me inside of you?” I asked her already knowing the answer. “Do you want me to drive my hard cock deep into your tight sweet pussy until you scream my name over and over?” She nodded as her breathing picked up. “Not good enough, Baby. You have to tell me what you want.”
“Yes!” she screamed. “Yes, fuck me now. I want you to fuck me now.” I know I probably shouldn’t have smiled but it felt so good to hear it. Payback might be a bitch but I would worry about that later.
I slid into place between her silken thighs and took my cock running it up and down her opening. “Feel that?” I asked her. “Feel how much I want you. Feel what only you can do to me.”
“Yes, oh God, yes. Don’t stop!” She said and I didn’t. I slammed my cock hard into her and she groaned as I filled the ache inside her. I hammered into her sliding easily into her drenched channel. Her tight flesh fisted me. So tight, so hot, so perfect!
“Oh, Baby. You feel so damn good. I’m gonna make you cum so hard then I’m gonna fill you with my hot seed.” I felt her grow even wetter as she arched against me harder than before. I could tell she was close and I was glad since I was close too. I drove into her releasing a little of my inner beast. “So close.” I could tell she liked to hear me talk and I would have said more but my cock was on fire wanting desperately to spill inside my little slice of heaven. I reached my hand between us homing in on her little love button. She was so slick my fingers slid easily. I circled round her clit once, twice, and the third time just as I sank deep inside her, was a charm. She exploded all around me her spasms gripping my shaft milking it perfectly. She screamed my name over and over as she came
, my name a song on her lips. I tried to hold back but I couldn’t. I howled as I came. My pleasure was uncontainable, unmatchable. I collapsed beside my trembling mate. It took us a while to come back to reality.
“Wow!” I said not knowing any other way to describe it.
“Back at you, lover boy.” She said with a contented smile on her face. “That was worth missing breakfast for.”
“Breakfast, damn I forgot about that.”
“As you should when you’re in my arms.” She said with a chuckle. “At least I know I didn’t disappoint.”
“Oh, Baby. You have never disappointed.” I said assuring her though why she would doubt the proof of her senses I didn’t know. She flushed a little from either embarrassment or pleasure I wasn’t sure.
“The bar is still there waiting for us to get it ready.” She said totally killing the mood. I frowned at her but she just laughed. “Somebody’s got to be responsible.”
Chapter 6
Sherona
I knew she was right but I could get lost in the afterglow forever and never look back. We were so different and yet everything we did together was perfection. She made me feel better than anything or anyone. Mine! She was mine and had always been meant to be mine. I was more certain with every passing day that she held the other half of me. Even more importantly she held my heart in her delicate hand.
She hurried to take a shower so I slipped in with her. “We’ll never get done with both of us in here.” She said but she poured some soap on me. I poured some on her then we started cleaning each other but we were more playful than anything. It took a little longer but we were both laughing when we were done.
We dressed and went downstairs where we attempted to salvage breakfast. It wasn’t that bad, really. I caught T.J. making faces as she ate. “If you don’t stop that I’m going to punish you.” I threatened.
“You and what army, big boy?” She asked pushing me.
“Don’t you know I’m an army of one?” I said as I moved toward her. She moved back then I moved so quick she didn’t see me coming. I picked her up and threw her over my shoulder. “What should I do with you now? Hmm. I could throw you in a mud puddle, out in the trash, or you could apologize for mistreating me. After all I’m dedicated to you, Sweets.” I smiled at her.
