Bearing the Hunger (Shifters of Yellowstone Book 2) Read online

  He shredded the rest of his clothing from his giant form, and she grinned. He wasn’t slowing things, but speeding them up. “How do you want this? In the bed, against the wall, or in the chair? I don’t give a damn as long as I’m in you soon.”

  She yanked him down onto her. With a growl, he knelt and shifted her into the center of the large bed. He maneuvered between her thighs, weight supported by his strong arms. “Do it. Bite me.”

  She sank her fangs into the flesh near his collarbone. He hissed and drove into her in one stroke. He placed a hand on her heart and, as she released her bite, she knew what she needed to do. She reached up and rested her palm on his chest.

  “You belong to me,” he said, his voice rough and full of passion.

  Lifting her hips to urge him deeper, she replied, “Always and forever.”

  He drove into her over and over, and she held out, wanting to enjoy the moment of their first time coming together, and to orgasm together. She wrapped her legs around his hips pulling his down on her. Every inch of him pressed against her brought her body to attention.

  “I can’t hold off much longer,” he panted into her ear.

  “Don’t,” she said kissing him and reveling in the steady increase in his pace. His strokes became less fluid and more frantic. A guttural groan told her he wouldn’t last much longer. “Breed me,” she whispered, not sure why those words were the right ones. He sucked in air and ground his pelvis against her clit, and she fractured as he shuddered above her.

  They remained in each other’s arms, unmoving. Though he lay heavy above her, she relished the ragged breathing brought on by his desire for her. She had never made a man so crazy with lust. Running her fingers through his hair, she waited for him to make the next move.

  As if sensing her thought, he rolled to his side and pulled her into his body, spooning her. Once he had her back settled, he tugged a blanket over their cooling bodies. “Are you all right? I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

  “Hurt me? I bit you, remember?”

  He chuckled into her hair. “I am not likely to forget it for a long time, and when I do, you can bite me again.”

  “Again?”

  “Yes. Every now and then, you will have to bite me again. I think it’s the fates’ way of letting the men know who is really in charge.” He poked the tip of her nose playfully.

  “I like that.”

  “Tomorrow, we can head out to Cody to get anything you feel you need to make this home. Do you need to call any family or settle accounts outside the park?”

  “My brother. He will worry about me. Maybe, in the spring, I can ask him to visit the park. Is that possible?”

  He ran his fingers through her hair. “We will make it happen. Get him one of the cabins. Make the plans as soon as possible so we can reserve one or more if you want the rest of your family to come? Perhaps have a wedding?”

  She shook her head. They had never cared much about her anyway. “Later, I’ll tell Doug we eloped. If I told him we just met and I moved in, he would be on the first flight out, thinking I had lost my mind.”

  “I’ll follow your lead. Whatever you want.”

  “I need to give notice to my landlord. I really don’t want to go all the way to Arizona to pack and move, though.”

  “We could catch a flight out tomorrow or the next day. We can spend a couple of days there, perhaps meet this brother of yours, pack a rental van up, and be back here in a week or two at the max?”

  She sat up to really look at him. “You can leave the park?”

  “Of course I can, but this is home, so I don’t go out much. Never saw a reason to until now.” He cupped her face, bringing her lips to his before repositioning her back against him.

  “What about your job here? Won’t they need you?”

  “As soon as they see my mark, I will be encouraged to get your things and get us both back here as soon as possible.”

  “You are going to show everyone?”

  He chuckled. “It is a great honor.”

  “I’ll never understand the minds of men.” She snuggled closer to him, bumping the growing erection at her back. “Already?”

  “You think you can’t understand men? I’m like no normal man you have ever met.” He pulled her over him. “Tomorrow morning, I’ll set everything up to get you moved in here. Brutus has already started pulling strings to get you a job. But, tonight, I only want to focus on you and me together.”

  They didn’t speak much for the rest of the night. They explored each other and, by morning, she had discovered muscles never before known to her. But she also experienced unconditional love of one mate for another. He had been caring yet insatiable. In the wee hours of morning, they collapsed, exhausted, into each other’s arms.

  She had a lot to learn, but a lifetime to do it in. And, having always been an outsider to her family, she now had one both eager to welcome her and quite happy to have her take on their cranky Grant. Smiling, she wondered how she could be thankful that another person had broken a bone. But she was, and while a thank you note to her professor might be a bit strange, she needed to do something. Without this chance at Yellowstone, how would she have met the other part of herself? She turned toward her man. He smiled down at her and kissed her forehead.

  “You need to heal, my love. We have the rest of our lives ahead of us, starting today.”

  The future never appeared so amazing.
