Big Bad Wolf (The Lycans 1)

Then I’d crawl back into the pits of the manor and truly contemplate if it was all worth it anymore.

Ren

I gave a mighty roar as I came, filling my mate up with my seed, making her take every single fucking ounce of it. She collapsed on top of me, her sweat dampening her little body that fit perfectly against mine. Our breathing was erratic, identical from just making love.

No, I fucked my female good and hard. She’ll be pleasantly sore tomorrow, remembering my cock deep in her body.

I hummed at how good that made me feel.

For long moments, she just lay on top of me, my arms around her body, keeping her close. Needing her that way. I fucked her all night long, small intermissions of sleep and rest before I’d woken with a renewed insatiable hunger for her. I’d come so many times I was dizzy from my pleasure, exhausted from claiming my mate over and over again.

She was perfect in every way, unimaginably beautiful and all for me.

She rolled off me and lay on her back, her arms flung over her head, her eyes closed, and this small smile tilting her lips. I couldn’t help myself from leaning over and kissing her long and slow, drugged-like. I could’ve gone again, my cock semi-hard but hardening once more as I looked down at her chest and saw her pert little nipples tighten further.

I blew a warm stream of air across them, and she arched and moaned even more.

I groaned and leaned forward, taking a peak into my mouth, sucking on it, licking the flesh, gently biting it. She arched and moaned, her legs sawing on the mattress.

I let go of her flesh with an audible pop and then pulled her in close, her chest to mine, her head resting on the crook of my arm. I had to stop touching her so erotically or I wouldn’t have any control and I’d take her again and again.

And as much as I wanted to be with her once more, I knew she had to be sore. She’d been so giving to me, spreading her thighs every time I needed her, welcoming me with her arms open as she held me and let me slide into her perfection until we both found release.

I loved this female, and although our bond as mates was unbreakable, I knew that even if we didn’t have that fate-ordained connection, she was who I’d want in my life and by my side forever.

“I’ve never felt anything so good as having you in my arms,” I murmured as exhaustion finally started to claim me. “Not in all my centuries in this world.” I closed my eyes and smiled. “I’ll never let you go.” She moved closer to me, kissing my chest and sighing in contentment.

“Good, because I don’t ever want you to let me go.”

I growled at how fucking good that sounded from her lips. “Because I think I’m falling head over heels, madly in love with you, Ren.”

My body went tight, my heart racing. And then I closed my eyes as pure pleasure washed through me.

“I know it’s insane, seeing as things have moved so fast. But I can’t deny that I’ve never felt this way about anyone, never even dreamed of it.” She tipped her head back to look into my face. “And what else can it be besides love?” Her voice was so soft.

I cupped the side of her face, stroking a finger over her cheek. “You make my heart ache, my blood rush, and every protective instinct in me come alive. Even if I’d only ever gotten this one moment in time with you, every lonely second of my existence would have been worth it.” I leaned in and kissed her. “I love you, my female. More than you’ll ever know, more than you can ever comprehend.” I kissed her once more, sealing those words between us. She rested her head on my bicep once again, and we stayed silent for so long I wondered if she’d fallen asleep.

But then she whispered, “Will you show me your animal?” Her voice was soft, her tone inquiring.

My Lycan rose up, anxious, excited to show our mate what he looked like. I pushed him back, fearful of what Mikalina would think about him. He wasn’t a normal-appearing wolf. My beast was massive, corded with power and muscular, and stuff terrifying legends were made of.

“I don’t want to frighten you.” Although I desperately wanted her to see my inner animal, it was a fearsome fucking creature. She wasn’t fully used to this new supernatural world, and I worried about shocking her.

“Will your animal hurt m—”

“Never,” I said with so much firmness there was no doubt about that lone word. “He only wants to please and protect you. He wants to always provide for you. We are one in the same, and everything I feel for you in my human side is magnified by my animal side tenfold.”
