Of their own accord, her hips began to buck, inciting him to go faster. All of a sudden, he slid his fingers out of her, and entered her with his tongue instead, sighing in pleasure as he tasted her. She moaned and sighed as her pussy spasmed.
He took hold of her thighs, clasping them in a firm grip, and began to lick her clit again, his tempo increasing until it matched the jolting of her hips.
“Oh God, I’m going to come!” she whispered. He responded by sucking harder on her clit, until all she was aware of was his deft tongue, right at the very core of her body, whipping her into a frenzy. Her eyes fluttered shut as an explosion began to build inside her, growing and growing, until it detonated with powerful waves, all over her body. The stars fizzed and burned beneath her eyelids.
“Granger,” she muttered, minutes later. “That was unbelievable.” He lifted his head, an eyebrow raised questioningly, the edge of his lips curved in a half smile. Then, with a sound a lot like a growl, he climbed up her body, powerful and agile, until he crouched over her, his shoulder muscles bunched.
She ran her hands all over him, recovering from her orgasm, but still needing more. As her frustration grew, she pulled him close, until he lay right on top of her, his cock a hard rod against her thigh. Then something in his face changed as he gazed down at her; and his features took on a rougher, fiercer expression.
“Noelle,” he muttered, his jaw tight. “I can’t control my bear like this.”
“What does it want?” she whispered.
“It wants me to mate you. To take you roughly, in every position, and claim you for my own.” A shiver of delight ran through her at his words. She loved his soft, romantic touches, his incredible tongue, but in her deepest, darkest fantasies, she wanted to be taken hard. She reached down and encircled his cock with her hand. It felt so swollen and ready for her. He groaned at her touch.
“I don’t want to hurt you,” he hissed from between clenched teeth. She moved her hand up and down, along his shaft.
“I want it like this,” she whispered. “I want all you have to give.” She hooked her ankles either side of his hips and pulled him towards her. A sharp burst of pain made her gasp as his cock pierced her, immediately filling her pussy. She held on though, her muscles gripping him tight, and the pain was replaced by a wave of pleasure that radiated all over her body. She felt herself yielding to him, abandoning herself to this big, powerful animal-man. His eyes were intense as they held her gaze, and she sensed that he was using every ounce of his willpower to control himself.
“You feel so good inside me,” she said, and instantly, it was as if a spring uncoiled inside him. His hips began to move, thrusting his big cock in and out of her, every movement setting her on fire. He moved faster and harder, alternately kissing her and burying his face in her neck. His breathing was harsh, somewhere between a growl and a purr. She was as limp as a ragdoll, overwhelmed with euphoria as he ploughed in and out of her. In and out, in and out, in a blissful rhythm. He sat back on his haunches and lifted her legs, one at a time, placing them over his shoulders. She gasped at the deeper penetration, at the different angle his cock made inside her. As he leaned towards her again, she was almost bent double. He fucked her in quick, sharp thrusts, and then he leaned back, holding her legs up in the air as he watched his cock entering her and filling her up. She squirmed and bit her lip. It was hot and a little dirty, and she loved it.
Suddenly, he pulled out of her.
“Turn over,” he growled. “I want to take you from behind.” She flipped over eagerly. She’d always liked this position the best, liked the way it was rough and primal. He didn’t penetrate her immediately, but stroked her thighs and the globes of her ass, murmuring his appreciation. He placed a hand on the small of her back, encouraging her to arch her back more, and then she felt something soft and wet running the length of her labia. Oh my god, he’s licking me again! Her cheeks warmed, and she tried to get away from his tongue, but he held her still, spreading her with his fingers and licking her eagerly, all the way from her clit to her entrance and back again. When she realized that he wasn’t going to stop, she allowed herself to relax and enjoy it. It did feel pretty amazing like this, kind of liberating.
Just as she was turning into a quivering mess yet again, he took his tongue away and, instead, she felt the tip of his cock probing her entrance. She cried out as he entered her like this, feeling her muscles yielding to his wide girth. Her nerve endings were so sensitive that she felt every bit of his cock as he slid inside her, all the way to the hilt. She arched her back further, dropping her head into her arms and he gave a purr of appreciation. At the first thrust, she cried out again, and again. He fucked her slowly, smoothly, and she began to make all kinds of sounds – yelps and moans and cries – barely aware that they were coming from her mouth. His cock was setting her insides on fire, but she needed more and more, and she pushed back on his cock, like a woman possessed, demanding all he had to give her.
He arched right over her, his hands coming down on each side of hers, and his chest pressing into her back.
“You’re mine, Noelle,” he said in a harsh, growly voice. “All mine. I’m going to fill your womb with my seed and claim you as my own. Is that what you want?”
“Yes,” she managed to say in between pants.
“Then tell me,” he ordered her. The Granger fucking her sounded so different from the sweet guy she knew that it made her hairs stand on end. It was wild and delicious.
“I’m yours, Granger,” she said. “Yours and only yours. I want you to come inside me and make me your own.”
Her words had the desired effect. His hands bit into her hips, his nails suddenly very sharp, and he began to fuck her hard, his pelvis pounding against her ass.
“Mine,” he muttered, in between thrusts. “All mine.” His words bounced around in her brain, making her delirious with arousal and pleasure. This big, sexy creature was claiming her by fucking her. He was making her his. Now she understood what it was to mate. She jumped as his hand slid along her belly and touched her clit. It was the final spark she needed. He fucked her with abandon, her fingers twisting into the sheets to stop herself from falling down flat, and at last his rhythm matched hers perfectly and she began to shudder, her pussy clenching his cock in quick little spasms. At the same time, he gave a wild roar, and came with a last, rough thrust, shooting his hot seed deep inside her.
She collapsed, lying flat on the bed, and he laid himself gently on top of her, his breath warm on the nape of her neck. They were silent for a while, Noelle too overwhelmed by the experience to be capable of putting any words together. Eventually, he turned onto his side, bringing her with him, and curled his body around her tenderly.
“Are you okay, baby?” he whispered. “I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
“You didn’t, Granger, and I’m better than okay,” she said, unable to stop herself from grinning. “But, I had no idea that sex could be so good!” He chuckled and stroked her face.
“That’s because it was more than sex: it was mating. You’re mine now. All mine. Forever and ever.”
“Really?” she whispered. He looked confused.
“Of course. Hey, hold on a minute.” He got out of bed and rummaged around in his discarded clothes, pulling out his phone. “Guess what time it is?” he yelled, jumping back into bed. She gasped.
“Is it Christmas day?”
“It is. It’s 12:32am!” He held her head in his hands and kissed her. “Happy birthday, Noelle! And a very merry Christmas too!”
“Merry Christmas, Granger!” she replied, her heart flooding with joy.
Moments later, she was asleep, her head resting on his chest and his strong arms wrapped around her.
Chapter Nine
Noelle woke up the next morning to the sound of clinking and rustling. As she stirred and started to open her eyes, Granger’s voice called from somewhere, “keep your eyes closed. Stay under the blankets!”
“Uh, ok,”
she mumbled, hiding her face in the comforter and inhaling the sweet, musky scent of their lovemaking from the night before. “What are you doing?”
“You’ll find out in a minute!” The clinking and rustling continued.
“Ok, you can look now,” he shouted at last. She dived out of the covers, pushing her hair back from her face. There was a little portable table next to the bed, filled with all kinds of delicacies, and at the foot of the bed was a Christmas stocking.
“Breakfast, and a few little gifts,” he announced. “Although I’m afraid that the gifts aren’t very exciting, since I didn’t know that you were coming until two days ago.” Noelle giggled in delight.
“That’s ok,” she said. “Considering I wasn’t expecting anything at all, this is pretty amazing!”
“And before we get started, we have to have a toast.” He climbed back into bed, reached down on the floor and produced a bottle of Champagne and two glasses.
“Wow, first thing in the morning?” she exclaimed.
“Nothing better on Christmas day!” He popped the cork expertly and filled their glasses.
“Merry Christmas and happy birthday to my beautiful, incredible, smart, sexy, lovely mate!” he said.
“Merry Christmas to my gorgeous, smart, brave, generous, amazing mate,” she replied. And they drank, the golden fizz instantly making her woozy.
“Now, presents!” he announced and handed her the stocking.
She didn’t know how he’d managed to pull everything together at such short notice, but there were two novels, a beautiful box of chocolates, some perfume, some cashmere socks, a scarf, two DVDs and a leather-bound notebook.
“This is just for now, but I’ll take you shopping tomorrow to get exactly what you want for Christmas – and for your birthday!” he said. Noelle’s eyes filled with tears.
“What’s wrong?” he asked, alarmed. She wiped her eyes on the comforter.
“Nothing; it’s just – just – I’m not used to getting stuff for Christmas, and you’ve got me all this, and we’ve only just met. You’ve made me so happy, Granger. I don’t know how to thank you enough.”
“Oh, baby,” he said, drawing her into his arms. “From now on, you’re going to have more presents than you can handle!” Her head was spinning, overwhelmed by the gifts and his words.
“But how did you get all these things for me?” was all she could say.
“Uh, I might have messaged my mom yesterday and asked her to help me out,” he said bashfully.
“No way?” she said, eye glistening.
“Yes way! Now, let’s have some food.”
The food was delicious, and it went perfectly with the champagne. When they’d finished eating, they lay in each other’s arms, kissing and touching. Noelle had never felt so happy in her life, but there was still a tiny part of her that couldn’t quite believe it was all real.
“Granger – you really mean all this, right?” she said in a small voice. “You’re not going to get bored of me and leave me one day?” He laughed.
“Are you kidding? I’m totally crazy about you. You’re my mate. And that means forever. No exceptions. Shifters aren’t fickle like humans can be. And we’ll have our mating ceremony soon, as the shifter laws dictate.” He gazed up at the ceiling, thinking. “Maybe on New Year’s Day? Would you like that?” She gasped.
“I’d love that! But, wait – what is this ceremony, exactly? Is it like a wedding?”
“Pretty much, except you wear simpler stuff and it’s held deep in the woods. Only shifters are allowed to be present, so it would be you, me and our clan attending.”
“That sounds amazing!” she said with a grin.
“Ok, it’s a date!” he said. He sipped his champagne and sighed. “I guess we should get up and go see the others. But, on the other hand – ” he lifted the covers and gazed at her naked body. “Maybe we should have a Christmas morning mating session instead.” She climbed on top of him and planted a kiss between his pecs, then one on his abs, then one just above his navel, then another on the diagonal grove at the top of his thigh.
“I think that’s a great idea,” she said.
Much later, they lay back on the pillows. Noelle’s body was tingling with the after-effects of the many orgasms Granger had just given her. He laid one of his huge hands on her belly.
“I wonder if we’ll have a cub or two running around next Christmas,” he said. She broke into a smile.
“Running around may be a little premature, but I’d be very happy to have one growing inside me at the very least.” Granger planted a kiss on top of her head.
“Merry Christmas, baby,” he said. “May our Christmas wishes come true!”

Shiftr: Swipe Left for Love
Dina
The first standalone book in the Hope Valley BBW Dating App Romances
Chapter One
“Lauren, I barely even know how to use email,” Dina said. “I don’t think this ‘app’ dating, or whatever you call it, is going to work for me.” She flung her phone down on the sofa, and gazed around her cozy, tastefully-decorated apartment. She’d long ago resigned herself to being single, and she’d worked hard at making her surroundings as comfortable as possible. She wasn’t even sure that she wanted to disturb the calm that she’d created for herself.
“Dina, when’s the last time you had a date?” Lauren asked. Her voice was calm, but her eyes were sparkling with amusement.
“Um, there was that time when I went out for dinner with the guy who works at the DHL office,” Dina said.
“And how long ago was that?” Dina counted on her fingers.
“Maybe a year ago?”
“Exactly!” Lauren said, in a tone of satisfaction. “Dina, you can’t sit here alone, night after night, wasting your life, when there are so many great guys out there you could be having fun with.”
“I don’t know. I just feel so inexperienced at the dating game. I thought things were going to be forever between Trey and me. And we met at high school, so we didn’t ever had to deal with any of that artificial, awkward dating stuff.”
“And how many guys did you date before the DHL guy?” Dina joined her thumb and index finger together into an O shape. Lauren stared at her, her huge brown eyes open wide.
“You’re saying you’ve
never been on any other dates?” Dina shook her head sheepishly.
“Girl, we have to fix that right now! And you can stop looking like I’m trying to force you to go to the dentist, or something. Dating guys is so much fun,” Lauren said. Dina took a gulp from her glass of white wine.
“I’m too old for this. Internet dating is something kids do. You know, people who actually look good in photos.” Lauren’s eyebrows shot up, halfway to her hairline.
“You have some crazy-ass ideas about things! You’re a stunning, curvy woman. Look at you! And you’re 36; you’re in the prime of life.”
“Yeah, that’s why Trey left me for somebody almost two decades younger than me,” Dina said, her voice sharp with bitterness.
“He left you for an intern in his office, right?” Dina nodded. “Trey left you because he’s a weak man, and he couldn’t handle a strong sexy woman like you. That’s why he was chasing after teenagers. Now, let’s forget about this asshole. He is over with. Will you at least try online dating? I promise you that there are lots of guys out there who will be so excited to meet you!” Dina glanced down at her phone.
“I don’t know. I –” Lauren took Dina’s hand, her eyes soft with compassion.
“Dina, I’m your best friend, and I love you. I wouldn’t be suggesting this if I didn’t think it was a good idea.”
“I know,” Dina said, and let out a long breath. Her hand crept over to her phone and she picked it up again. “Ok, I’ll try it, but just for you. Tell me what I need to do?”
“Great!” Lauren came to life. She was at her best when she was helping people out. She took the phone from Dina and began installing several different apps. When she was done, she showed Dina her handiwork.
