BEARly Mated to the Grizzly (Bear Clan 2)

I lifted my gaze to her face again. “This may be strange for you, Ali, but the truth is this is what perfection is for me. Having you here, knowing you want this despite your confusion.” I took a small step closer. “Make no mistake in thinking you can run from me.” I ran my finger along the side of her throat, her pulse beating wildly beneath her ear. “I have your scent ingrained in my very cells.” I growled the words out. “I can find you anywhere, my female.” I felt my bear flash across my human side, saw her eyes widen as she saw the reaction. “I’ll track you, hunt you. I’ll always find you.”

“God, are you always this—”

“Intense? Possessive? Territorial?” I looked at her mouth, wanting to kiss her so fucking badly. “Only with you, Allison.”

I pressed my body flush with hers, heard her gasp, and knew she felt my cock pressing against her belly.

“Do you feel that?” I asked, but she didn’t respond, just licked her lips. I bared my teeth so she could see my elongated canines. “I’m going to claim you, take you as mine. No other male will know how you feel, how tight you are, how wet you get, baby.”

My cock jerked after I spoke, and her eyes widened further. I leaned in close so my mouth was by her ear now. “Mine, Ali. You’re all mine.”

She was breathing harder, faster, and the scent of her arousal filled the cabin like a field of flowers blooming.

I leaned back so I could look in her eyes again. “And every single time I take you, claim you, mate, I’ll make sure to fill you up with my seed until it slips out of your hot little pussy and makes a wet spot on the sheets.”

This little sound left her, maybe outrage, maybe desire. I scented both in the air and it made me burn alive. I watched her chest rise and fall. “I don’t think you fully understand what it means to be mated to me, female. But you will, and very soon.”

I was in a constant state of lust where Ali was concerned.

She stepped toward me, her mouth parted slightly as she looked up at me, her hair this long curtain moving fluidly over her shoulders.

“Just tell me you want this. Tell me that you can’t fight the pull, the attraction.”

She sucked in a breath, her pupils dilating.

“I don’t want to fight you, Maddix.”

The way she said my name had my cock jerking, had pre-cum spilling from the tip of my shaft.

“I don’t want to fight this,” she whispered again.

I knew I had to have her now, had to finally claim her.

“When I first saw you, something in me awoke. I’d frightened you, made you run from me, and that’s not what I want. Not ever.” I lifted my hand up and ran my thumb along her bottom lip, feeling the soft plumpness of her mouth. “I want to make you happy from this moment on. I want to be the male you come to when you need something, anyt

hing. I want to be the man to give it to you, Allison. Always.”

We were only inches away now, breathing the same air, experiencing the same electricity and arousal. I smoothed my finger over her bottom lip, feeling her tremble. “There has never been anyone for me but you, baby. And that’s how it’ll be until the day I die.” I was transfixed, mesmerized by her. “Does this—the mating—scare you?”

She shook her head instantly. “No, but maybe it should.”

I was the one to shake my head now. “Never. I’d never hurt you, Allison.”

“As crazy as all of this is, being with you … being with you … seems like the most perfect thing in the world.” She looked me in the eyes. “It’s what I want.”

“You’ll never know what it feels like to have any cock but mine. You’ll never know the feeling of a male’s hands on you but mine.” I knew she could sense how serious I was, but she’d never know exactly the lengths I’d go for her. She’d never realize how I’d do anything and everything in my power to make Allison mine irrevocably.

“And when the time is right, Ali…” I cupped the side of her face. “When the time is right I’ll place my child right here.” I had my hand on her belly, adding the slightest amount of pressure. She breathed harder, faster, and I allowed my inner savagery to come forth, the beast that made my canines elongate, had my eyes flashing from my inner bear. “Say it,” I demanded, my animal coming forth, needing that submission from her, needing to hear her say it to placate the beast within me.

“Yes,” she said with wide eyes, the truth of that lone word filling my head and making me intoxicated.

And that admission was good enough for me and my bear.

“You want this,” I growled out. “I want this,” I admitted with a distorted voice, my bear so close to rising to the surface. “Now get undressed for me, mate. I want to claim you properly.”

I took a step back and watched her, my cock throbbing, my balls drawn up tight. I reached down and adjusted my stiff, aching dick. There was no denying that I wanted her, that my animal lurked below the surface, ready to take charge.

“This is all so … fast, but God, I don’t want to slow down.”
