“What is it?” he asked again.
“Draco has been taking care of an infected woman in the cabin on the opposite side of the forest. She has been in and out of transition, but he has fed her blood. His blood.”
She told them everything she knew, and she knew Draco was never going to forgive her.
Chapter Twelve
“You’re upset,” Rocco said the following night as he glanced down at a very naked Rose. He’d already made love to her in the hope of distracting her from whatever guilt she was feeling. After she told the club what Draco had done, they had no choice but to see the truth for themselves.
He’d been shocked to see Draco able to handle a human female. Not only had he taken care of her, he also opted to give blood. What was even more surprising was how protective he’d become of her. Even hinting that if they thought to terminate her, he would claim mating status. This was a change for the Draco books.
None of them wanted to kill any humans infected by blood. They truly wanted to find a way to keep them alive. He was offering it himself as a kindness. It wasn’t what he wanted to do. There was no other choice.
“Yeah, did you see the way Draco looked at me?” she asked.
“I know, but there are secrets you can keep within a pack, and secrets that truly need to be told,” he said.
She sighed, sitting up as she ran fingers through her hair. “And yet, I feel like I betrayed his trust.”
“You didn’t.”
Rose snorted. “Come on, Rocco. I totally did. He told me his secret and I went running to the pack leaders.” She closed her eyes. “I don’t know what has happened to me.”
“It’s simple, Rose. You love the pack.”
This made her laugh.
“You can try to hide it any way you want, but we all know you love the pack. You take care of us in your own way by just being there to help when we need it. You clean up the mess, and so what if you don’t join in half the fun or do any of that shit? It’s not about that anyway. We both know that.” He ran his hand down her back, gliding up to cup the back of her neck. “You did what you had to do.”
“I was afraid she would attack him, or something else.” She blew out a breath. “I’ve seen the mess. It’s not pretty.”
Rocco shook his head. “It’s not pretty. It’s worse than any kind of horror movie I’ve ever watched. Not that you would know because you don’t have a television.”
Rose laughed. “That really does surprise you, doesn’t it?” she asked.
“It’s fine. I’m a big boy and I can handle the fact that you don’t want a television.”
“Graham doesn’t seem to mind.”
“Graham loves reading,” Rocco said.
“And you don’t?”
“Well, you see, I don’t mind doing other things with my mate.”
“Your mate?” she asked.
“Yeah, you see, I’ve seen the error of my ways, and I can now see the value of not owning a television.” He leaned in close and brushed his lips across the back of her neck. He heard her soft subtle moan, which was quite intoxicating. He wanted to hear it again.
Sliding his tongue down the curve of her ear, he moved past her lobe and then toward the pulse within her neck. She moaned, and he couldn’t help but glance down to see the fullness of her tit, the peak of her nipple as her arousal began to build. Not only could he see it, he could smell it as well.
His mouth watered, and without even realizing what he was doing, he spun her toward him and pressed her against the bed, already moving between her thighs. They were not open wide enough and he had no choice but to nudge them to fit between.
“Rocco?” she asked.
Taking possession of her mouth, he felt his wolf close. He was hungry and desperate, needing to fill her, to thrust every inch of his hard cock deep within her tight cunt. At the same time, he hungered for a taste of her sweet honey.
Her lips were enough of a distraction for now. With one hand at the back of her neck, pulling her in close to him, the other he slowly caressed down her body, stroking over her full ripe tits, and then sliding down toward her sweet pussy.
The scent of her was driving him wild. It wasn’t long before he had no choice but to break from the kiss so he could travel his lips down and suckle at her sweet tits. First one nipple, and then he tongued between the valley, going across, and then toward her other one, sucking it into his mouth.
He had the oddest sensation that he wanted them to be full of milk. In fact, he suddenly had a very overwhelming desire to have Rose pregnant with his child. She would be completely bound to him, and then it wouldn’t matter what he did in the past.
