He gritted his teeth, grabbing her knees and pounding inside her. Thrusting in deep, he watched the way her tits bounced as he filled her.
The way she moaned his name was almost too much.
Sliding out of her, he placed her on her knees and found his way back within her tight heat. Her hair had fallen off one shoulder, exposing her neck. The wolf within him was so close to the surface. He gripped her neck, pulled her close, and gave her the mating bite, marking her as his for all time.
No man would ever doubt who she was.
She’d smell like him.
She was well and truly mated as he fucked her hard and fast, spilling his cum deep within her walls.
Collapsing to the bed, he pressed his face against her neck, but Mabel had other ideas. He didn’t know where she found the strength to spin him around and pin him to the bed, straddling his waist.
All that he cared about was the feel of her teeth against his flesh as she marked him.
He pushed some of her hair back as she lifted up.
“If I’m yours, then you’re going to be mine.”
“I’m at your service, Mabel. Forever.”
She put her hand against his chest. “I don’t want to ever lose you, or even be in a position where I could lose you.”
“That thing with your dad scared you, huh?”
He wiped away the tears as they spilled.
“I’m sorry,” she said.
“No.” He lifted up, wrapping his arms around her. “You don’t have to be sorry. You’ve got nothing to apologize for. This is all me, and you’re not going to take that away.” He sank his fingers into her hair. “I was the one at fault, not you.” He pulled her down and pressed his lips against hers.
“No more running, Lucas. I promise.”
“It doesn’t matter because even if you were to run, I’d come and find you. You’re not getting rid of me that easily.”
He pulled her down and kissed her lips hard.
Lucas couldn’t remember a time he was happier. He loved this woman more than anything in the world, and no matter what, he’d always be making up for the way he’d treated her. Never again would he take her for granted.
“Do you think we should tell our parents that we’re ready to go home?” he asked.
“Nah, let’s stay here awhile. You never know, we could go home and be right back where we started.” The smile on her lips was all it took.
“Yeah, and this is really important.”
“So important,” she said. “We don’t want to rush this in case it backfires.”
“Exactly, and it’s so new.”
“Oh, so new.”
He pulled her down, rolling her onto her back as he slid between her thighs. “Now I’m going to make love to you.”
“I’m here, Lucas. Always here.”
Epilogue
Five years later
“You’re stealing the pineapple again,” Lucas said, wrapping his arms around his very pregnant wife and mate.
Mabel held a piece up for him. “And I’m eating the cheese. I’m not totally mean.”
He laughed and took a piece, chewing on the sweet fruit as well as the savory cheese. “Tastes so good.”
“I know, but I’ve got to stop. All I keep thinking is they would taste so good with fried tofu,” she said.
Lucas moved down the tables as his wife tried little nibbles. He kept his arms around her.
It was a fair in town, and the pack was surrounded by tourists and their fellow civilians. The full moon was only a few days ago, and Lucas had spent it near his wife. They owned a small house in the center of town. Since his wife was also pregnant, the need to change wasn’t as strong as it usually was. He had the choice to run out in the open or stay indoors loving his wife.
Mabel was the most important person in the world to him. They’d been able to get away with another four months alone at the island before Duke had come to take them back. The pack had accepted them with open arms, and now, five years later, married, mated, and with a little baby on the way, he couldn’t be happier. Mabel worked for him, helping him with the pack. She was learning her duties from his mother. There wasn’t a lot of time for anything else. Running the pack was a full-time occupation, but he saw her still ferociously typing away at her laptop, creating a brand-new world.
“People are staring,” she said.
