Delta Bear (Rogue Bear Series 2)

by Meredith Clarke

  His hands twisted in her hair as he drew her lips to his. “You’re exactly what I need.”

  She moaned as his lips crushed hers. The kiss spread fire through her limbs, coating her veins with more want than she knew existed. Her hands flew to his neck, clinging to him, coaxing him closer as their mouths devoured each other.

  His teeth nipped at her throat as he trailed over her collarbone and kissed behind her ear and shoulder. His hands coasted over her hips.

  “I don’t know what’s happening.” Her head reeled back as she felt his fingers tug at the hem of her shirt and drag it over her head.

  He kneeled to the floor, planting kisses against her soft flesh. He inched upward, taking her breasts in his hands. “You’re perfect, Haley.”

  She shook her head. “No, I’m not.”

  She looked down as his rough hands landed on her breasts. His fingers were peeling the fabric down and she felt one nipple freed and then the other. She had a thousand protests in the back of her throat. Reasons she shouldn’t be getting ready to have sex with this man who was practically a stranger. Reasons his mouth shouldn’t be on her tits. Reasons she shouldn’t crave him, but he began to suck slowly. So slowly she could feel her nipple perk in his mouth.

  Once his tongue began to flick and twirl over it, she knew the reasons were lost.

  “Oh, God.” She reached for his neck.

  “I’m going to taste every inch of you.” He stood to face her. “Just like that.” He rolled the nipple between his finger and thumb, and she whimpered at his touch.

  Jax lifted her against his chest. “Where is your bed?” His eyes raked over her chest.

  “The last door,” she breathed, bringing his lips to hers.

  She knew as he walked along the hall she was saying yes to everything he wanted to do. She could care less about the chemical reactions snapping through her body. She wanted him to take her to bed. She wanted to shed all the walls that kept her from experiencing life. The ones that made her analyze every little situation.

  He laid her across the bed. His hungry lips kissed between her breasts, along her stomach and against her hips. His fingers yanked at the waistband of her yoga pants until they were piled on the floor.

  His hot breath trailed between her legs. He cupped against the silky fabric, already wet. She felt his fingers hook on her panties as he jerked them over her thighs.

  It had been so long. So long since a man had looked at her the way Jax did. So long since she had been kissed. And so long since she felt the bliss of a man between her legs.

  “Ohh.” She let out a long sigh as his fingers began to slide between her folds, circling her nub before massaging at her entrance. She bucked toward him, her hips rocking to meet his rhythm.

  He watched her. “I said I’m going to taste you.”

  Haley closed her eyes, as Jax’s hands landed on the inside of her thighs and began to pry her legs wide. Then she felt the lightning strokes of his tongue as he began to lick between her legs, tracing the lines of her folds.

  She reached for his head, needing to grip something. Needing to tell him how good he was making her feel.

  His tongue plunged inside her and she immediately clenched at it. He dipped in and out, licking and sucking until she felt the delicious waves begin to consume her. His tongue flicked over her sensitive bud until the sensations rolled through her in giant bursts of color.

  “Ohh,” she moaned. “Yes, God, yes.”

  Jax kept her pinned to the bed, lashing his tongue against her until the last wave of her orgasm stilled.

  He licked along her thigh and planted a kiss at the top of her knee.

  His eyes blazed with lust. “Do you like how that feels?”

  She nodded. “I fucking love it.” She smiled.

  “Good, doc because I plan on giving you more.”

  She moved to her knees, crawling forward. “Can I show you how much I liked it?”

  Her hands landed on his zipper. It wasn’t enough. She shimmied the jeans over his hips, until he kicked them out of the way. Her fingers tugged the band on his boxers until he was naked.

  She stared at him in disbelief. Jax was long and hard. His thickness took her by surprise. As a doctor she had seen her share of naked men, but Jax was more than the perfect male specimen, he was gorgeous and athletic, sculpted and hot. She took one look at his cock and wanted a taste of him. She kneeled in front of him, licking her lips.

  Her tongue touched the bead of dew on the head. She flicked over it, drawing a moan from his throat. Her eyes locked on his as she drew him into her mouth, slowly. His hips jerked forward.

  “Fuck, Haley.”

  She took him farther, sliding and swirling her tongue around his shaft. He grabbed the back of her head as he rocked deeper into her mouth. His skin was soft and silky. She loved how he filled her. She loved the sounds coming from his chest. The movements quickened until he yanked her head back.

  “Not yet,” he whispered. “I want you first.”

  Haley rose from the floor. Her eyes never leaving his. Her core was burning. She was wet and hot. She lay back on the bed, watching as Jax crawled toward her. His broad shoulders full of strength and power.

  “You’re so perfect.” His mouth landed on her nipple and she bowed as he began to suck hard and fierce.

  The sensations fired between her legs. “I’m not,” she answered.

  His fingers feathered between her legs. He massaged the little bud, until she was desperate for him to fill her.

  “But you are.” He dipped one finger inside then another, prying her legs wider.

  “You don’t know me, Jax,” she whimpered. Her hips were rocking wildly as his fingers sank deeper.

  “I know what you taste like,” he growled. “I know your body was meant for mine.”

  She felt him settle between her legs, his hard cock nudged against her thigh. He pushed himself up on his palms, staring in her eyes.

  “You don’t have to worry,” she whispered.

  “Worry about what?” His eyes searched hers.

  “We don’t need protection.”

  She saw the smile on his face. She knew then he wasn’t planning on using it anyway.

  “Why do you say that?” He kissed her neck.

  “I can’t get pregnant. You don’t have to worry.” Her body arched toward his.

  He rolled to the side, his face covered in concern. “What in the hell are you talking about?”

  “We can talk about it later,” she breathed. She wanted him back on top of her, more than anything inside her.

  “Tell me.” He propped himself on his elbow, and she realized he was putting the brakes on everything.

  “All right. The down and dirty diagnosis is I have one ovary that doesn’t work and the other one would need fertility treatment to wake it up. That’s the non-medical way to explain it.”

  He ran his hands over his head.

  “What’s wrong, Jax? Does that change what we were doing?”

  They were lying on her bed naked. About to fuck like two people who hadn’t been with anyone else in way too long. She knew it. He knew it. She needed this as much as he did. But he was lying on his back, his eyes fixed on the ceiling.

  Haley sat forward, drawing one leg over him, then the other until she was straddled over him. She felt his cock jerk between her legs.

  “Oh no, not like that.” He grabbed her by the hips, and flipped her on her stomach.

  Haley squealed as Jax kissed her neck and licked down her back. His tongue landed on her generous ass and she felt his hands grip her hips. He lifted her in the air. She couldn’t stop watching him. His hands rubbed and massaged until he had her spread wide on her knees.

  “You have no idea exactly how perfect you are,” he groaned.

  She wasn’t going to argue with him. His tongue was circling over her entrance and she began to grind in rough jerks, trying to clench his tongue.

  “Are you going to fuck me, Jax?” she mo
aned through her teeth. Her hands gripped the pillows next to her head.

  “Is that what you want me to do to you?” His palm traced over her back until her grabbed her hair, yanking it back.

  “Oh, God, yes.”

  “Tell me to take you like this.”

  She missed his tongue. She missed his fingers. She was quivering on the inside, but all she wanted was his shaft driving into her. He was a big strong man. She knew it would be as hard as a steel rod.

  “Like this.” She wiggled her ass back in forth. “I want you like this. Take me.”

  She closed her eyes, waiting for him. And then she felt him at her entrance, the tip of his cock barely pressed against her heat.

  “You’re so wet. But so tight,” he groaned. It only seemed to turn him on more.

  His hand tightened in her hair and as her head met the base of her shoulder, her bottom rose to meet him. He drove himself inside her with a growl that sent a shudder through her entire body.

  “Ohh.” She bucked at his force and then began to ride his hardness into pleasure.

  “Oh fuck, doc.” He plunged harder, yanking her head back.

  But she moved wildly against him, taking the jolts of lighting. It felt amazing. “Fuck me harder, please,” she whimpered.

  He pumped against her. Each stroke deeper than the last.

  Her breaths turned to gasps as he took her with primal need. It was heated glory how his cock slid inside her, then drew back before gliding in again. Every time his skin touched her she felt the fire tingle in her blood. There was nothing like it.

  She had wondered how long it had been since Jax had been with another woman. Two years overseas was a long time. He was unleashing everything on her and it felt fucking amazing. She wanted to flip on her back and look in his dark eyes. She wanted to see the expression in his eyes as he pumped hard inside her.

  She tried to push off the bed, but as she rose he took her breasts in his rough palms and pulled her back to his chest.

  “Oh, fuck,” she moaned. Like this she could ride him up and down while his fingers tugged her nipples.

  His mouth landed on her neck as he kissed and sucked behind her ear and along her shoulder. The fever inside her was burning. She whimpered for him to release her, but the more his hands tortured her the tighter the coil wound in her core. She rode him faster, desperate to come like this. And then in an unexpected movement, his hand slid between her legs, flicking at her pulsing bud.

  “Jax,” she called his name. “Please, please.”

  His fingers worked back and forth while he whispered in her ear. “Come for me.”

  She leaned her head back on his shoulder as the waves began to crack and ripple through her. She clenched around him as the quivering took control of her body. His arms circled her and he held her close while everything she knew shattered and shook.

  Her eyes widened when she heard a growl come from his chest. “That was the fucking sexiest thing I’ve ever seen.” His teeth nipped at her ear.

  Jax’s hands slid over her stomach, palming her thighs. She couldn’t help the rocking in her hips. He was still hard and she wanted more. Another life-altering orgasm just like that one.

  In one swift motion he lifted her off of him and rolled her on her back. She smiled, knowing she was going to get exactly what she wanted.

  Jax

  He looked down at his mate. Her raven hair splayed on the bed. Her eyes hooded with pleasure. Her soft curves. Her voluptuous tits. This was the woman made for him. She was perfect. And she solved a problem he had.

  He stood at the end of the bed, dragging her ass close to the edge. Her eyes flared.

  “What?”

  But he didn’t answer. Instead he hooked her ankles against his back and thrust into her. His eyes closed, feeling the white-hot light course through him. She was tight and hot. Her body still warm. He drove into her again, each time gripping her ass harder, his fingers sinking into her soft flesh.

  “Fuck,” he groaned, knowing he was close to his release.

  The way she rode him with wild abandon drove him fucking crazy. It was time to return the favor.

  Then he opened his eyes and looked in her eyes. She was staring directly at him. Watching him. Matching his thrusts. Pulling him in. And she was loving every second of it.

  “Oh, Jax,” she screamed. Her hands fisted the sheets as she began to thrash from her orgasm. His cock began to pulse inside her and he pumped faster as the unrelenting pleasure shook him. He groaned at the satisfaction his body felt. He wanted to stay here buried in her, filling her with his essence.

  He crawled on the bed, scooping Haley into his arms and pulling her against his chest. She was his. His mate. His partner. And the new alpha he could entrust with the clan.

  He kissed the back of her head. “You ok, doc?”

  “God, yeah. That was amazing. I needed that.”

  He laughed. “You needed that?”

  “You didn’t disappoint.”

  “What’s that supposed to mean?” He brushed the hair from her neck.

  “Look at you. If you weren’t good in bed, it would be a tragedy.”

  He rolled her under him, pinning her arms above her head. “Is that what you think of me?”

  She bit her lower lip. “Is there more?” Her tone was playful.

  Jax felt his cock jerk back to life as he settled between her legs. Rough and wild was fun, but this time he wanted to take his time. He wanted to savor the feeling of his mate. Remember how soft her skin was. How her lips tasted. Memorize the look in her eyes when she came. Because he would be leaving soon. And he needed something to think about when he was sleeping under the desert sky.

  “I’ve got more,” he growled in her ear.

  Her arms flew around his neck as she arched toward him. “Good. Tell me that means you’re going to fuck me again.”

  He held back the roar rumbling in his chest. “Oh, I am.”

  * * *

  Jax drove to the cabin, his bear feeling a new kind of calm. He parked in front of the house and jogged up the steps. He didn’t know how long he had before he would be called back to Razastan, but he would need to prepare Haley for her alpha duties.

  Once he told her she was now his mate, the fate of the clan would change. The wars would stop. He would leave her in charge.

  He stripped down and stepped in the shower. The water felt good.

  He knew he’d never met a woman like her before. She was smart and strong. Opinionated and sweet. Kind and thoughtful. He smiled, lathering his solid chest with soap.

  He promised he would pick her up this afternoon and bring her back to the cabin for the night. Now that he had found her, he wanted her under his protection. Tonight he would tell her everything.

  He reached for a towel and dried off. For another bear the fact that she might not be able to have cubs would make her undesirable, but it was the best scenario he could have imagined. With no cubs, he could stay in Delta Force. He could be with his mate when he was home and leave knowing she could take care of herself.

  He felt a twitch in his chest. His bear wasn’t happy with the prospect of no cubs. But he remembered what Haley said. It was possible, she would just need fertility treatments. Maybe one day when he was retired from Special Forces they could go down that road.

  Right now it meant she could lead the clan in his absence. Cubs would come later. Much later.

  Haley

  She let the water wash through her hair. The shower felt good. She smiled. She’d never had a night like the one with Jax. She loved how he took control of her body. It was unbelievable.

  What was more unbelievable was that he was already making plans for tonight. She had assumed it was a fling. Two strangers letting out lonely frustration. Ending the loneliness for a night. But when she woke up with his arms wrapped around her, she didn’t feel like it was a one-time thing. It felt deeper. She felt as if her body somehow belonged to h
im.

  She turned off the shower and twisted her hair in a towel. Tonight she’d be in his bed. It made her hot just thinking about it. She walked to her room to dress and pack. Jax would be back to pick her up in an hour.

  * * *

  As they drove along the private drive, he kept looking at her. Haley smiled, wondering what was on his mind. His eyes drifted back to the road.

  There was something behind his eyes she couldn’t figure out. For two years he had been part of a special operations unit. He couldn’t talk about what he did. It had to be weighing on him. The secrecy of his life.

  “All right. Here we are.”

  He put the truck in park and grabbed her bag from the bed of the truck.

  Haley smiled when he opened the door for her. “Thanks.”

  He threaded his fingers through hers and led her up the front porch steps. “Home sweet home.” He pushed open the front door.

  She had been here two days ago, but this was different. Then, he had been an unknown name on a volunteer project list. Today he was the man who had rocked her body until she was blazing embers in his arms.

  “I’ll put your bag in the bedroom.” He walked down the short hallway.

  She wondered what he had planned for their afternoon. He seemed anxious and preoccupied.

  “Are you hungry?” he asked.

  “Food does sound good.” She smiled. If Jax was about to cook for her, she would know she was witnessing a mirage.

  He turned for the kitchen. “I bought all these groceries the other day.” He stopped as he was about to open the refrigerator. “Wait. That’s who the anonymous caller was.”

  “Huh?”

  “You said an anonymous caller put my name on the list for the Help A Hero Program.”

  “Yes. We didn’t have a name. Only yours.”

  He chuckled. “It had to be the nosey lady at the register. She kept asking questions. Wanted to know where I was staying. If I was alone.” He pulled two bottles of beer. “I guess I can’t be angry with her.”
