Karina gripped his shoulders, trying to find anything to hold onto, not wanting to let him go. He was so big and he filled her to the brim. She knew there was a risk of her getting pregnant, but in that moment, she didn’t care.
Karina wanted to spend the rest of her life with him, to have his babies, to be his mate. She didn’t want to go home, where she was the alpha’s human daughter. She wanted to be Rage’s mate.
“You’re mine,” he said.
“And you’re mine.”
“Always.” He captured her lips, and she sunk her fingers into his hair. This felt different to her.
Rage didn’t hold back. He wasn’t afraid of hurting her. There was no reason to be. She could handle this. He pulled out of her pussy, and then slammed back inside, making her cry out.
Suddenly, he pulled out of her pussy but then took her to the ground, placing her on her knees. Rage surprised her further by tearing the skirt from her body. The shirt she’d been wearing didn’t last either, nor did the bra. They were shredded and on the floor.
Naked and exposed, Karina didn’t care. It felt so good to be in the open, with her mate.
He spread the cheeks of her ass, and within seconds, he was balls-deep inside her again. From this angle, he’d gone deeper than ever before, and she sunk her fingers into the earth.
The scents that surrounded them were intoxicating.
Rage ran his hands up her back, then down to her hips, gripping them tightly. She knew there would be bruises where he held her, but she didn’t care.
“Do you have any idea what you’re doing to me?” he asked. He gripped her hips, pulled all the way out of her until only the tip of his cock remained, and then slammed hard and deep, making her gasp.
He went so deep within her that she wasn’t sure if it was pain or pleasure, or a combination of the two she felt. She whimpered his name and he growled.
“No,” she said. “What do I do to you?”
He held himself deep inside her, making her feel unbearably full. Rage was not in any rush to answer, but she felt a need to come. Rage traced little patterns on the base of her back, and she was sure at one point he’d written, Rage’s mate, but she couldn’t be entirely sure.
Her whole body felt so sensitive, on fire, and the need consumed her.
“You make me forget everything.” He pulled out of her and slammed back inside. He did this twice more, then paused once again.
She was so close to orgasm. “What do I make you forget?”
“That I didn’t want to have a mate. That I didn’t want to have children. That a part of me didn’t want to settle down.” He let out a little growl.
“I make you forget all of that?” she asked.
“You make me want to forget it all, and to have it all. I want to mate with you, Karina. I want to have a life with you, and children. I want to fill that house with the sounds of children’s happy screams. I want to come home to find you there, waiting for me. Naked, or surrounded by our kids. I will do whatever it takes to make you mine. Be mine.”
He leaned over her and kissed her neck. One of his hands moved from her hip and delved between her thighs. He began to stroke her clit, and Karina forgot the answer to the question.
Wait, he wanted forever with her?
Karina didn’t know if she could give him forever. No one knew how long she would be alive. Could she promise him forever, when she might only have twenty, thirty, forty, or fifty years left?
For the first time in her life, Karina hated what had happened to her. She hated that she was human with an unknown length of time. That was cruel. Giving her a mate that she knew she was falling in love with, which was crazy. She had started to feel close to him, connected, and that could all disappear if she got sick.
Tears filled her eyes, but she pushed them back and out of her mind. She only had now. There was no way she could offer Rage anything more than now.
Pushing those thoughts to the back of her mind, she tried to ignore the pain blooming in her chest at the sheer loneliness. She hated being her, hated what she couldn’t have.
There was no choice, for Rage’s sake. She would have to let him go.

Rage rolled over and reached out toward his woman, his mate. He had known the moment he got her to come to his pack, to his town, to be part of his life, he’d win her over. At home, she’d been too protected, too isolated. He sensed her need for freedom, and he was more than willing to grant it. All he could see for the two of them was an amazing life. He couldn’t help but imagine children running around, laughing, and screaming in excitement. Karina gave him the opportunity to dream of a future he didn’t even realize he wanted.
