Alpha Temptation: Sanmere Shifters Romance Collection

by Lola Gabriel

  Logan released her nipple and moved his mouth to her other breast. Before he could suck her nipple into his mouth, she stood up from his lap. He frowned. Was she having second thoughts? One look at her lust-filled face told him she was having anything but second thoughts.

  Raina knelt down in front of him. She reached out and opened the button of his jeans, pulling the zipper down. He half stood up so she could pull his jeans and boxers down, and he kicked his shoes off to let her peel them off his feet. She threw them to one side and then she took his socks off, throwing them onto the top of the mounting pile of discarded clothes.

  She looked at his hard cock and smiled to herself. She ran her tongue over her lips, leaving them sparkling with moisture, and took hold of his knees, roughly pushing them apart. She moved into the gap and grabbed his cock in one fist. She leaned her head down and licked the tip of it. Logan gasped as fire flew through his cock and spread out across his whole body at her touch. She blew gently on the tip and licked it again, driving Logan wild with need.

  He needed her to take him in her mouth, to bring him some relief, but she continued to tease him, running her tongue down his length and then rubbing her lips over it on the way back to the tip. Finally, when Logan thought he couldn’t wait another minute, she plunged her head forward, taking his cock into her mouth. The warm feeling of the moist smoothness of her lips and the tickling sensation brought on by her rough tongue combined to send Logan straight to the edge.

  She had barely gotten started, and already, he was fighting to stop himself from coming. Ragged breaths tore down his throat, searing it, setting his lungs on fire. His cock sent waves of pleasure out through his stomach and down his thighs. His full body was alive, being worked by Raina’s expert mouth. She moved her head slowly at first, still teasing Logan, making little circles on his cock with the tip of her tongue as she gently sucked him.

  She began to move faster, her head bobbing furiously as she sucked him harder. He let his head fall back, his mouth hanging open as pleasure assaulted all of his senses. His cock twitched, and he was aware that he would go over the edge soon if Raina didn’t stop, but he didn’t have the strength to reach out and stop her. He didn’t even have the inclination. He wanted to come, to feel the pleasure exploding through his body. He balled his hands up into fists at his sides, his fingernails digging into his palms and leaving red crescent shapes there as he shouted Raina’s name. She continued to work him, and right when he was about to come, she moved her mouth away from him.

  Logan’s bear growled in frustration, but he didn’t have long to wait until Raina got to her feet. She smiled down at him, a smile so filled with desire that it made him want to hold her and never let her go. She moved back into place on his lap, her feet on either side of him. She moved her hips, rubbing her glistening pussy along the length of his cock. Logan’s breath caught in his throat. Raina came up into a half crouch and took his cock in her fist. She held him in place as she lowered herself onto him. Logan could barely breathe as Raina wrapped herself around him.

  She released her grip on his cock, taking him all of the way in. She put her hands on his shoulders and leaned forward to kiss him. He was inside of her, enveloped in her heat, but she wasn’t moving. He bucked his hips, yet she remained still. His lips met hers, and she kissed him deeply, wrapping her arms around his neck and pushing her hands into his hair.

  When she began to move, Logan’s whole body became a giant nerve ending. She ran her tongue down his neck, and he could feel her nipples grazing over his chest with each thrust. She moved faster, and he heard her breathing change. She angled her hips so that each thrust hit her g-spot. He could feel her pussy tightening around him as she brought herself to orgasm on his cock.

  Raina threw her head back and moaned his name, giving him a perfect view of her exposed breasts. He reached up with one hand and rubbed her nipple between his thumb and his forefinger. Raina’s moan intensified, becoming a screaming cry. She was still moving, bouncing so quickly that her body was a blur. Logan couldn’t hold himself back any longer, and with an animalistic groan, his orgasm burst through him, sending warm waves of deliciousness that held him in place on the chair, suspended in time, not thinking, just feeling. Slowly, he came back to himself, his cock still twitching inside of Raina. She was leaning against him, her head resting on his shoulder. He took a moment to get his breath back, his arms wrapped around Raina. His cock slipped out of her as his orgasm faded.

  “I hope you don’t think this is over,” he whispered.

  Raina’s head shot up from his shoulder, and she looked down at him, a sated smile on her face. Her cheeks were flushed pink, her orgasm still written all over her. Logan wanted her to feel more, to really experience the pleasure he could give her.

  “Stand up,” he commanded.

  Raina jumped to her feet, and Logan stood up before her. His cock was already hard again. It had barely gone down after his orgasm. Raina drove him so crazy that he didn’t think it would ever go fully down while he was around her. He reached out for Raina and spun her around. He pulled her backwards until she was pressed tightly against his front. He could feel her pert little ass cheeks against his cock, the heat of her body washing over him. He could smell her lust coming off her, a scent that brought his bear rushing to the surface. He swallowed it back down. Not yet.

  He ran one finger down Raina’s belly, holding her to him with his other arm. He felt her skin puckering at his touch as goosebumps sprang up on her skin. He moved his hand lower and pushed his fingers between her swollen, wet lips. He found her clit and began to work her into a frenzy. He didn’t give her any reprieve; he just went for it, bringing her body to life. She gasped and writhed against him, her hands clinging to his arm still holding her in place against him.

  He felt her body tense up as an intense orgasm ripped through her. She moaned loudly, and then she began to pant as he kept working her, bringing on another orgasm. She pressed her head back against his shoulder. He could see the pulse in her neck fluttering. Her eyes closed, and she whispered his name in a low, husky voice that sent shivers through his body. Still his fingers worked her, not giving her a chance to recover between her orgasms. He could feel the liquid running freely from her. Just thinking about how wet and ready she was for him to enter her again made him almost come himself. They were connected now, and her pleasure was his pleasure.

  He could feel Raina’s legs starting to shake. He removed his fingers from between her lips and brought them to his mouth, licking them clean, tasting her. She trembled against him as aftershocks spread through her body, catching her unawares. He smiled to himself and kissed her neck. He kept his arm around her waist and stepped back slightly. He used his other hand to push her forward until she was bending over the desk. He put his hands on her hips, holding her in place. She put her palms flat on top of the desk, holding herself up. Logan couldn’t wait another second. He had to be inside of her. He had to claim her once more.

  Logan pushed his cock into her pussy, feeling her opening up for him, taking him inside of herself. He began to move, his thrusts hard and fast. Raina pushed herself back onto him, thrusting with him, gasping each time he slammed into her.

  He ran his hands up and down her sides, running his nails lightly over her skin, listening to her moans as he brought her back to an orgasmic state. Her pussy tightened around him, holding him in place inside of her as she screamed his name. His bear rushed to the surface with a growl, and this time, he let it out. He felt his eyes changing, his hands sprouting claws, which he moved back to Raina’s hips, not wanting to hurt her. Fur began to sprout on his back as animal lust urged him on to fuck Raina harder, faster. Tufts of golden fur had sprung up on Raina’s spine, and her next scream was the growl of an animal. Their joint orgasm ripped through their bodies. Logan roared, feeling his teeth becoming more pronounced, his nose elongating into a snout. He roared again and then forced his bear back down. He wanted to feel Raina’s effect on him as a ma
n.

  His orgasm was in full swing, pulsing through him as he came back to himself, and he cried out breathlessly when Raina clenched around him again. He could feel his cock going wild, sensation after sensation radiating out of it and flooding his system. All he could see, hear, taste, and smell was Raina. She was consuming him as they became one. She screamed his name, half bear, half woman, and her whole body went rigid. Logan held onto her hips as she began to slip forward, her arms no longer able to hold her up. He moved his hands, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her upright. She leaned back against him heavily, trusting him not to let her fall.

  He moved one hand lower, massaging her clit as his own orgasm began to fade. He slipped his cock out of her, letting his fingers elongate her orgasm. She screamed out his name again and again, and when he thought she wouldn’t be able to take any more, he moved his fingers off her clit and held her against him as her rigid body orgasmed hard.

  She was no longer screaming, no longer able to utter a sound. Logan glanced at her face, contorted in ecstasy, her mouth hanging slack and open. Her eyes were rolled back in their sockets, and as they swept back into view, they were so dark, they were almost black. Slowly, the blue began to reappear, and Raina sucked in a breath that expanded her chest. She held it for a second and blew it out in a long rush before she began to pant desperately. Her body sagged against Logan’s. Logan held her tightly, not letting her fall as he made his way to the bed. He gently placed her down on it, and then he sat down beside her and pulled her head into his lap, stroking her face as she slowly came back to herself.

  If there had been any doubt left in her mind that they were meant to be mated, Logan knew he had erased it. They were mated now in everything but the official ceremony. Their bodies responded to each other, uniting them in something far more primal than a mating ceremony ever could. She was his.

  She opened her eyes and slowly focused her vision on him. Her face broke into a smile.

  “Shit,” she said, drawing the word out.

  Logan laughed. It summed it up perfectly. He moved his hand back and stroked her hair. She smiled lazily and sat up. She was still a little shaky, but she seemed to be pretty much back to herself, so Logan didn’t try to stop her.

  “I need a shower,” she said with a laugh, looking down at her wet and sticky thighs.

  “Make it a bath, and I’ll join you.” Logan winked.

  “Deal.” Raina moved into the bathroom, and Logan took a moment to appreciate just how lucky he was to have this incredible woman here with him. He forced himself not to think about what they had to do tonight. The thought of Raina in danger was too much for him to even comprehend.

  He lay back on the bed, his hands behind his head, a smile playing across his lips. He closed his eyes and thought of how good her pussy had felt wrapped around his cock.

  “The bath is ready, sleepyhead,” Raina called, pulling Logan back from the edge of sleep. He sat up and yawned loudly. Raina laughed again. “I hope you’re going to get a bit more stamina than that,” she teased him.

  “Oh, believe me, I could go again right now,” he said.

  “I don’t doubt it.” Raina danced back out of his reach as he made a grab for her. “You’ll have to be quicker than that.” She skipped away, and rather than trying to catch up to her, Logan admired the view of her ass swaying as she walked. She went into the bathroom, and he hurried to follow her. He stepped into the steamy room to see Raina already sitting in a bath of clear liquid. She smiled and beckoned him, and he stepped into the warm, silky water.

  He leaned forward and kissed Raina tenderly. She sighed with contentment and lay back. Logan looked around and spotted a white sponge to bathe Raina. She kept her eyes closed, letting him clean her. She moaned and writhed when he reached the spot between her legs. Her eyes flew open as he paid special attention to it. She grinned and took the sponge from him. She hummed to herself as she washed him down, and sure enough, she saved his cock for last, making an impressive show of ensuring every inch of it was spotless. She grinned at Logan, and he couldn’t help but laugh at the playful look on her face. She put the sponge down, and he stood up and stepped out of the bath. He grabbed a towel and began to get dry. He looked down at Raina, who stayed laying back in the water.

  “Are you not getting out?” he asked her. She smiled.

  “Eventually. I’m quite content here watching the show at the moment,” she replied.

  Logan laughed and continued to dry himself. He made a point of shaking his hips and flexing his abs as he moved. If Raina wanted a show, then she would get it. When he was done, he picked up a clean, dry towel and held it out towards Raina. She stood up and stepped out of the bath. She walked into the offered towel, and Logan wrapped it around her, kissing the tip of her nose.

  He began to gently dry her body: her arms, her back, and then her front, concentrating on her breasts. He rubbed down her stomach, and she tensed up, anticipating his touch on her, but he held back. He got down on his knees and dried her foot and her calf, doing the same to her other leg. He dried her inner thighs slowly and thoroughly.

  He threw the towel to one side and ran his tongue along her lips instead. She moaned and sidestepped slightly with her right foot, opening her legs, inviting him in. She was eager, and Logan loved that. He was only too happy to oblige her, and he pushed his tongue between her lips, licking gently over her swollen clit. She sucked in a pained breath through gritted teeth, and Logan started to pull away, knowing that the intense orgasms she had already had must have left her tender. She reached down and grabbed the back of his head, stopping him from pulling away. He grinned to himself and went back to work with his tongue.

  Raina moaned, pleasure cutting through the pain as Logan lapped at her clit. She bunched her hands into fists in his hair, tagging on it and sending stinging pains through him. The painful tugs showed him how much Raina was into this, and it spurred him on. He upped the pace of his tongue, ignoring the cramps that seized it, pushing her closer to the edge, caring only about her pleasure.

  When she came, she came hard, and Logan got to his feet and held her as her body shook from the intensity of her orgasm. He waited until she had stopped moaning his name and gave her a minute to get her breath back. He kissed her tenderly on the lips and then took her hand in his and led her back into the bedroom. She smiled at him as she began to pick up her discarded clothes and put them on. He followed suit, knowing they had work to do, and nothing would get done while they were both still naked.

  “I know we have a lot to talk about, but right now, we need to focus on Chester and tonight,” Raina said.

  “Agreed. On both counts. So, what’s your plan?” Logan asked.

  “It’s simple, really. I’ll hide out where I can see the entrance to your room, but I can’t be seen. When Chester turns up, do or say whatever it takes to get him to hand Brianna over to you before you give him the money. If he gets the money, he’ll be gone before we can do anything. Tell him you want to assess her for damage or something.” Logan saw the shiver go through Raina as she said it. She saw him looking and smiled. “Sorry. I just hate to hear myself talking about Brianna like she’s nothing more than a commodity.”

  “I know you don’t think that way, Raina, but Chester does, and if we want to make this work, we have to think like him,” Logan said. Raina nodded, looking grateful that he understood.

  “So, once Chester hands Brianna over, I need you to shift into a bear and protect her at all costs. Chester works alone, but probably not completely. He’ll have people with him. Make sure they can’t get to Brianna. While that’s going on, I’ll jump out and kill him,” Raina finished.

  “What? I know you’re fierce, Raina, but do you really think you can take Chester on alone? And you can’t kill him—he’s immortal, remember? We’ll have to come up with some way to trap him.”

  “So when I told you about killing him earlier, you thought that was hypothetical?”

  “Well,
yeah,” Logan said with a frown.

  Raina got up and went to her wardrobe. Logan watched her with interest. She pulled out a black leather-bound notebook.

  “I was being serious, Logan. I’m going to kill Chester or die trying,” she said.

  Logan felt a pain in his stomach at her words.

  “Don’t even talk like that, Raina,” he said. “You won’t be dying.”

  She smiled. “Well, that wasn’t the plan, but I didn’t want to sound too arrogant. Now, do you want to know how I’m going to kill Chester or not?”

  Logan nodded, fascinated, as she came back to the bed. He looked at the notebook. She clearly had her plans written down in it. She picked up a small pair of nail scissors from the bedside cabinet. She dug the blade into the tip of one of her fingers, and a tiny bead of blood appeared as she squeezed it. She rubbed her finger over the notebook.

  Logan’s eyes nearly popped out of his head as the notebook changed before his eyes, becoming a dull yellow colored sword.

  “Holy shit, Raina! Is that an Ure sword?” Logan said, still not quite believing his eyes.

  “Yup. The same one I used to kill the last Matchmaker who crossed me.”

  “Wow,” Logan said. “Okay, now I get it. You really are going to kill him.”

  Raina nodded with a cold smile. “You’re goddamned right I am.”

  13

  The day had gone by far too quickly for Raina’s liking. After they’d made their plans for what to do that evening, they’d gone down to the restaurant for lunch and then for a walk to pass the time. Raina had expected the day to drag by painfully slowly, but before she knew it, it was seven o’clock.

  She went up to her room, and Logan went to his. She wanted to be in place a little earlier than eight, just in case Chester showed up early. She knew he wouldn’t be too early—that would give Logan too much power in the deal, but it was always best to be prepared for anything.
