"I know. I've heard about the Wolf who mated with a Vamp. But isn't it a rare exception?" She turned onto his road and watched the numbers on the mailboxes she passed. When she saw his, she pulled into the drive. "I'm here, let's finish this in person." Without waiting for a response, she disconnected the call and turned off the ignition. Before she could open the door, Ronin pulled it open and lifted her into his arms.
"My Lindsay."
"Not yet." She wiggled from his embrace and enjoyed the mixture of desire and fear on his face. "You know the bracelet we spoke about?"
Confusion crossed his face. "Yes."
"What if I told you it belonged to a Fae goddess? A warrior in her time. One so powerful that men and women alike bowed before her?"
"Okay..." Ronin stepped back and crossed his arms over his chest. "Where are you going with this?"
"I know how to get in with your pack."
"The pack doesn't matter to me. Only you matter."
She took a quick look around to ensure no one could see their exchange. Pulling herself to her full height and embracing the power dancing duets in her veins, she smiled. "Kneel, Ronin."
Her werewolf cocked his head to the side and paused only a moment before dropping to his knee.
"Tell me the truth," she instructed. "Do you want a life without a pack?"
"No." Shock covered his face as the admission rolled off his tongue.
"You want a pack of your own though, don't you?" She raised a brow and hitched her hip.
"Yes."
The whispered admission took him completely to his knees.
"So, let's get you a pack." She knelt before him and placed a heated kiss against his lips. "But first, I want you to show me how loyal you can be." A flare of desire burned through her.
"I've never seen you want to take charge like this." His voice sounded thick and his eyes grew stormy.
"Maybe I've been missing out all this time. Take me inside and show me exactly how you worship a goddess."
Ronin sprang to his feet and grabbed her around the waist. "As you command it, my love."

CARRYING LINDSAY OVER the threshold into his inner sanctuary was like bringing home a treasured item. Something he wanted to keep and cherish forever. He bypassed the tour and delivered her right into the middle of his bed.
"I'll worship you, my mate."
He unbuttoned her fly and pulled the fabric down her legs until it flew through the air. The scent of her arousal called him closer. "You're so wet." He leaned close and took a long, luxurious sniff before grabbing her thighs and opening her to his view. He never grew tired of seeing the glistening moisture between her legs.
He let out a deep breath and watched her tremble as it cooled her heated core. His jaw ached to transform and leave a trial of bites up the fleshy insides of her thigh, marking her and making her one of his own kind. He resisted the urge and buried his face deep within her folds, his tongue exploring every delicate inch of her skin until he found the tight bundle of nerves at her apex and pulled it between his lips, suckling until she moaned in pleasure. His fingers delved deep within her walls and stroked until he found the perfect spot.
Her breathing grew shallow and his jaw threatened once again to transform and change her.
Before he could check his craving, she wrapped her legs around him and held tight as a tidal wave took over her body.
"Move." A single word.
"What?"
"Move. Lay on your back."
He did as she asked, enjoying this new confidence.
She worked her fingers over the fly of his pants and opened it and that of his boxers only enough to free his previously restrained cock. "Mmm." A quick flick of her tongue across the tip was nearly his undoing. She shot him a sexy smile before she straddled him, sinking low until he was settled deep within. "Tomorrow we tell the pack you're mine. My scent will show them. And then, my mate, you'll compete for Alpha. But until then, you're mine."
Ronin's back arched as she set a rowdy rhythm. His mate would be his undoing. No, she would be the beginning of the future he always wanted. Hope flared as their breathing grew more rapid. Her inner muscles clenched tight, sending him over the edge. Somehow, he always thought he would be the one to control his destiny, but now he knew different. She marked his chest with her teeth before finding her own release, claiming her as his own and it became clear. She would be the new Alpha.
Pack dynamics were about to get turned upside down.
"Change me."
"As you command it." His jaw shifted and the familiar feel of fangs descending hardened him again.
Lindsay's eyes grew wide as she resumed her frenzied pace. He sat up, bared his teeth, and sank them into the flesh of her breast. She screamed out, the pain mixing with the pleasure he provided.
She was his.
Forever.
