CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Adam woke to the scent of Becca everywhere. On his skin, in his sheets, on his pillow. The scent of her in his room, filling the space and mingling with his own ordinary scent…those two together made up something new and unique and utterly perfect.

And he had no idea how he’d ever be able to walk away from her now.

He’d have to. Sooner rather than later. He was a rogue wolf with no pack and no stability and no safety to offer. Even his home was likely something he’d have to abandon soon because of the pack to the north. He could never keep her in his life when he had so little to offer her.

But he wanted to. He wanted to keep her forever.

She rolled against him, in the cocoon they’d made of his blankets, and his arms came around her instinctively, before he was awake enough to think consciously about that need to hold her close. She was soft and warm, mussed from their night and from sleep. When he looked down into her face, the quiet beauty of her made his throat tight. And his arms tightened reflexively, pulling her even closer.

He nuzzled her messy hair, soaking in her scent and warm softness, wishing he could live the rest of his life in this moment.

Wishing reality would remain at bay for just a little bit longer.

By some miracle he didn’t think he deserved, reality did hold out a bit longer. She woke with a sleepy smile, looking up at him with her beautiful brown eyes soft. And without a word, pushed up to kiss him. A gentle brush of the lips. But it was the familiarity of it that shook him to his bones. The sense that this was a regular morning ritual for them. They did this all the time. Waking in each other’s arms and kissing good morning.

He didn’t want just a gentle kiss this morning, though. He wanted their familiar mornings to involve more. So he nudged her over onto her back and kissed her, slow but deep. Her answering passion sparked something hot and sharp in his chest. Something possessive. Too possessive for their situation. But he didn’t care. Not just then. With her soft and naked and warm beneath him, she was his, he was hers, and this was a moment they could have.

Gliding his lips down her jaw, over her neck, he bit the skin where her shoulder and neck met, an area that made her shiver and moan. He scrapped his morning beard over her chest, then down across her breast, her peaked nipple. And her moan deepened.

“I love the feel of your scruff on my skin,” she murmured.

He was amused those were her first words this morning. “I noticed. I may never shave again.”

She chuckled, a sound that dropped into a gasp when he took her nipple into his mouth, sucking her hard, teasing her with his tongue. Her hips rolled under him, seeking, and knowing she wanted him, so easily, so quickly, left him hungrier for her.
