“Won’t that be super risky?” she asked.
“I’m not sure how much you know about shifter senses, but my ability to scent is unrivaled by anyone else in the pack.” My nostrils flared as I pulled her scent deep into my lungs. “And I can tell you with complete confidence that you aren’t ovulating yet.”
“Oh. Wow. Um…” she trailed off as she wiggled her hips. “Then my vote is that we go bare because just the little bit of your dick that’s inside me already feels incredible.”
I didn’t want to prolong the pain that would come from taking her innocence, so I slammed my cock into her tight sheath, burying myself deep before I stopped. Calliope tensed beneath me, and I bent low to kiss the tears off her cheeks. “I’m sorry, baby. It’ll be better soon. I swear.”
She gave me a jerky nod, and I held still until her muscles started to ease, and she wiggled her hips. “It’s starting to feel good already.”
“Yeah?” I asked, trailing my mouth down her neck to nibble at her pulse point.
Her walls loosened their tight grip on my hard length. When I angled my hips back and slowly sank inside again, she gasped, “Uh-huh.”
“I want this every single day for the rest of our lives, Calliope,” I grunted as I thrust back into her.
“Yes, me too.” Her nails dug into my shoulders, her hips lifting off the mattress to meet mine. “Tane, please…”
“So fucking tight. Perfect,” I groaned as I buried my face in her shoulder while I pounded in and out of her pussy.
Her inner walls fluttered around me. “So perfect that I’m already so close.”
I lifted one of her legs and brought it over my shoulder so I could get even deeper. Then I slid my hand between our bodies to circle her clit with my thumb. “Are you going to come for me, baby?”
“Oh, yes,” she breathed.
I pumped in, hard and fast, my gaze locked on her face as I watched her orgasm build. Her eyes were hazy, and the pink in her cheeks had deepened. “Do it now,” I urged.
I dropped her leg from my shoulder and wrapped it around my waist as I continued to power into her body. Her heels dug into my ass cheeks, and she lifted her hips to meet me thrust for thrust. Her body finally shook in ecstasy, her pussy clenching around my cock and taking me with her.
I shot so much come into her pussy that our combined fluids dripped down her leg. Our scents mixed, shredding my control past the point of no return. My tiger pushed for control, and my canines burst through my gums. I grazed the sharp edges over her soft skin, being careful not to draw blood. Although she’d given her body to me, I needed to hear her tell me that she was ready to join our souls together too. “I want to leave my mark right here while your pussy is full of my come. You’re already mine, and I’m never going to let you go. But this will complete the mating process so every other shifter will know.”
A glint of fear filled her eyes, darkening them to a golden brown. “I can be a big scaredy-cat sometimes when it comes to pain, but I want to be yours. Please do it quickly so I don’t have the chance to freeze up too much and make it worse.”
“Trust me, baby. When I sink my teeth into your soft skin, the last thing you’ll want is for me to go fast,” I purred while my lips curved up in a smirk. “From everything I’ve been told about fated mates, the only thing you need to brace for is an orgasm that will blow your fucking mind.”
“Then heck yeah”—she lifted her shoulder closer to me—“hurry up and get to it because I’d love to see how this orgasm will top the two you just gave me.”
My tiger surged close to the surface, his fur brushing against my skin. As both sides of my soul reached for hers, I sank my canines into her flesh. It felt as though an explosion went off inside me, but it was quickly followed by a sense of peace I’d never experienced before. My tiger and I were in sync. Happy. And it was all because of my gorgeous mate whose pussy milked another orgasm out of me as she flew over the edge again.

Calliope
Waking up in Tane’s arms was beyond anything I’d ever imagined. After spending most of yesterday in bed together—with a few breaks to eat, pick my stuff up from Allegra’s house, and shower—we’d finally passed out late into the night. No matter what we were doing, Tane kept me close. I quickly got used to how he always liked to touch me. He kept a hand on my nape when we talked to Zeke, his thigh flush against mine as we sat side by side whenever we ate in his kitchen, and spooned his body around mine while we slept. He didn’t shy away from public displays of affection, which he proved when he French kissed the heck out of me on his front porch, and several members of his pack jogged past, shouting out encouragement while they were still within earshot. And he loved to leave marks of his possession all over my body, as though the mating mark on my neck wasn’t enough to warn off other shifters.
