Ara

After I finished eating, he spoke, finally breaking the silence.

“You’re avoiding me.”

“What do you mean? I’m right here.”

“Look at me,” he demanded and I clenched my jaw, staring down at my plate. His chair screeched as he slid it back and my eyes jerked up to him, my mouth falling open as he stalked around the table.

He pulled my chair out from the table and knelt in front of me, grabbing my chin with his thumb and forefinger, and turned my face to his. I met his gaze, heart pounding in my chest.

“Do you still not want me?” I shook my head and he released a low, breathy laugh. “Are you sure?”

His free hand slowly slid up my arm and I closed my eyes. He inched his way to my shoulder, rubbing his thumb along the bite mark. A bolt of white-hot desire shot through me, pulling a gasp from my lips, and his grip tightened on my chin.

“Look. At. Me.” He demanded and my eyes snapped open to him. “I can feel it. Your desire for me. Your arousal.” He rubbed his thumb along the bite mark again and I moaned, leaning into his hand. “With this delicious little mark, I will always know when you are in need of me.”

I should be shocked, disgusted… But it only flamed the raging fire that spread through me at his touch. At his words.

“Tell me to stop.”

I paused, searching his face for something, anything, to snap me out of it. To remind me why this was wrong. But every thought I’d had for days dissipated at the intensity in his eyes. The sincerity.

He wanted me just as badly.

“I’m not agreeing to be your mate,” I whispered and he dropped his gaze, nodding.

He started to stand and I reached my hand out to his face. As my hand grazed his cheek, he froze, closing his eyes. I slid my hand into his hair, knotting my hand in it.

His eyes snapped open, his gaze blistering.

My heart leapt into my throat and I jerked him forward, crashing his mouth to mine. He hesitated, just for a moment, before he deepened the kiss, groaning and bringing both hands to either side of my face. The sound went straight to my core, reminding me of every delicious sound he’d made that night, and I moaned at the intensity of every feeling. Every touch. Every breath.

He slowly stood, pulling me with him, unwilling to part. As soon as I was on my feet, he slid his hands down to my backside, pulling my hips into him. He lifted me and my legs wrapped around his waist on instinct.

Sitting me on the table, he broke the kiss, smirking as his hands slid down my thighs to my knees, parting them wide. My cheeks flamed as the thin strip of fabric fell between my knees, the only thing covering my bare sex.

“I brought you here for breakfast. Now it’s my turn.” His gaze dropped and his smirk deepened into a devilish grin.
