She gasped and wriggled against him. “Nate!”

“Mine,” he repeated, pulling at the clothes that were in his way. Letting go of her hands, he grabbed her ass in both hands, slid her up the wall…then down his cock.

She keened, the sound high and so breathtakingly beautiful he nearly lost it right there and then.

* * * *

“Fuck you!” Kellie fought the urge to hit him. He’d taken her against the wall, right in the middle of the waiting-room where anyone could have walked in; and now, he expected her to come live in his apartment. Who did he think he was?

“You’re my mate!”

“No.” She ground her teeth as she hooked her purse higher over her shoulder. Whirling around, she stalked off, intent on ignoring him and his crazy demands.

“Don’t make me push you, Kellie.”

“Ha!” She didn’t stop walking. Hitting the back door, she watched it slam against the wall with a deep satisfaction. She beeped her car open and slid inside, her gaze avoiding the tall and very pissed off man who had come to a stand on the sidewalk.

“You can’t avoid me forever, Mate. If you’re not at my condo by seven, I’ll come get you. Is that clear?”

She rolled her eyes and put the car into Drive. If he thought he owned her now, he was seriously mistaken. She sped off, her mind on what had happened that day.

She was mated. She couldn’t deny it, not with the way she was now reacting to him. Whenever he touched her, she became mindless; as if her soul became so lost in him she didn’t exist any longer. She hated and loved the feeling at the same time. It felt good to belong for the first time in her life, but she also couldn’t accept how he’d gone about it. He hadn’t even asked her!

He’d been trying to save you from the pain inflicted by your lioness
, her mind countered. He was a doctor; that’s what he did. She’d only been working with him for a bit more than a week, but she’d come to know him. He hated seeing people hurt. It went against everything he was.

And yet, he’d used his Alpha voice on her, controlling her, dominating her… A frisson ran up her spine. She hated him!
No, you don’t
. Argh! She could feel her lioness inside her, content even though she shouldn’t be. Nate was so freaking male. How could her animal even like him? Nothing made sense any longer.

Biting down hard on her lower lip, she focused on driving herself home in one piece and locking herself in her house for the coming night. She’d hide under the covers and force herself to think of something else. Someone else.

Her insides pulsed, reminding her the mating frenzy was still upon her. But, she could deal with that, too. She had a drawer full of toys that were begging to be used. She was in control of her body and of her destiny…

* * * *

She hadn’t been home for five minutes when someone was knocking on the door. Exasperated, she flung it open. “For pity’s sake, Nate—Oh. Jane?”

The other woman smiled in welcome. “Hi. I was in the neighborhood and thought we could continue our conversation from this morning. After all, that awful man interrupted us.”

Kellie blinked. Couldn’t the woman smell her? She’d been on her way to take a shower, wanting to wash his scent off her. He’d spilled himself inside her again, making her think for the first time of the possibility of having a baby. She’d always thought she’d never become a mother, not with her lioness so uncontrollable; but now, everything had changed. Her whole world had shifted, only because Dr. McDreamy had helped her. Her mate…

Licking her lips, she took a step back, a gesture the blonde woman took as invitation. She brushed past her, her forearm touching her breast as she moved further into the house. Kellie groaned inwardly, wondering what Jane wanted. After all, Kellie had made it clear she wasn’t interested. Hadn’t she?

Moments later, they were both sitting in the small kitchen as they waited for the coffee to finish dripping. Silence rose once the platitudes had been said, a silence that grew more and more uncomfortable. Kellie knew she should play the hostess and start talking again, but she had no idea what to say. She also wasn’t sure she wanted to have the other woman in her house. There was something strange in Jane’s gaze, something that made her lioness start pacing inside her. Considering the animal had wanted her only the previous day, that was odd. Very odd indeed.

“You have such lovely hair,” Jane said, reaching out to brush one of the curls dangling in front of Kellie’s eyes.

“Hmm, thank you?”

The woman smiled. “Have you thought about what I said this morning?”

Huh?
Kellie winced. “I’m not sure what you mean.”

“It’s that doctor, isn’t it? I know you want me, hon. I can feel it. You want me as much as I want you, but that man has forbidden it. Do not worry, though. I have a plan.”

“You have?”

“Yes.” Jane reached out again, but this time her fingers teased Kellie’s still-hard nipple.

Kellie leaned back against her seat, breaking the contact. Her body yearned for her mate, her senses high-strung, her skin sensitized. One touch and she’d probably explode. But she didn’t want the touch to be Jane’s! “What are you doing?”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be gentle.” Jane had such a sweet smile on her face, too. Her eyes, though, they were dark and glittery.

Kellie pushed her chair back and stood up. “I think you should go now, Jane.”

“If you say so.” The other woman beamed as she made her way to the front door. She turned around once to say, “Goodbye, Mate.”

Kellie stilled, not understanding, but Jane didn’t stop. Her car soon sped off, leaving Kellie feeling totally confused and not a little bit tired.

Closing the door behind her, she decided it wouldn’t be a shower she was going to take. It would be a long, and seriously hot, bath. She deserved it!

 

 

 

 

Chapter Nine

 

 

“It’s eight o’clock.”

Kellie flailed in the tub so much she nearly drank a mouthful of water. Pushing wet hair off her face, she blinked up and saw a huge mountain of a man towering over her. “What are you doing here? How did you get in?”

He ignored her questions, but added, “I gave you an extra hour, Kellie, but you still didn’t turn up.”

“I was taking a bath!” She waved her hands around her, as if to prove her point.

Big mistake… His gaze sharpened as he took in her body, naked under the bubbles. The bond between them heated up, her walls clenching around an imaginary cock seconds later.

He knelt beside the bath before she could tell him off again. One hand found her left breast, weighing it with obvious relish before his thumb straightened and hit her nipple.

She hissed, making him chuckle. “A ‘lil excited, aren’t you, honey?”

“Go away,” she said, but her voice didn’t carry any strength. It was as if something warm and soft was starting to envelop her, pulling her limbs down, making her arch her back.

Fingers slipped down her softly rounded stomach, teasing her navel, sliding further down until they spread into the springs of hair just above her sex. And stopped.

She groaned, rocking her hips up, hoping he’d take the hint.

“What do you want, Kellie? Tell me,” he whispered, bending down to nuzzle her shoulder. A droplet of water clung to her skin, and he quickly licked it. Her nipples tightened in reaction, wanting that tongue on them.

“God!” She widened her legs as far as she could, even hooking them around the tub’s ledge to make it easier for him.

“Where do you want me to touch you, baby?” he asked against her collarbone.

He was so close, so close…

“Please!” Damn it, she couldn’t believe she was begging him.

“Here?” His other hand clasped her thigh, nails digging into her flesh.

“No!”

“Here?” he repeated, but this time his fingers dove between her legs. He didn’t pull his punches, one long digit sliding inside her, followed by another one and another one.

“Ahh!” It hurt, and yet, it didn’t. She felt full like this, those three fingers starting a slow rhythm that echoed her heartbeat. “Nate?”

“Yes, Mate?”

She looked up at him. The second their gazes caught, something flared between them so bright she had to avert her eyes. The next thing she knew, she was dripping water everywhere as Nathan carried her out of the bathroom. He dropped her onto her bed and quickly shed his clothes, offering her the view she remembered from the night before. But this time, oh this time, he was completely naked.

He was also rock-hard, his cock already leaking pre-cum. She licked her lips at the sight and made to reach for him, only to find herself flat on her back with him between her legs.

He spread them wide, wide enough so he could move down until his face was suddenly right over her core. Her insides pulsed. Was he really going to… The question died in her mind at the feel of his tongue flicking her clit. He really was.

She leaned back and grabbed the pillow behind her with both hands.

 

Her scent. God, her scent!

She was so aroused, so fucking wet, all he could do was lap it all up and hope the taste would stay with him forever.

He straightened his tongue and dipped it inside her, making his lion purr in pleasure. Her thighs tightened around his face, and he grinned. Putting his right arm over her midriff, he forced her hips down before taking it up a notch. He started by licking her slit slowly, tonguing her inner lips, flicking her clit quickly before dipping into her entrance once again. Once he had her begging for more, he answered her plea and took the hardened nub between his lips.

He sucked on it, even letting his teeth circle it for a while there. She moaned, groaned, hissed at him to make her come. He just kept on pleasuring her, his focus on her and her only. This was his mate, the one woman for him.

Her hips thrust up, her scream echoing all around them. He didn’t stop, didn’t even blink. When juices seeped out of her, he lapped at them like the cat he was, growling his enjoyment. His lion answered in kind inside him, butting his head against his flanks to remind him he would have to take her soon. The male needed to claim his female, the one currently lying prone as if offering herself to them. Nate roared back, reminding the lion who was in charge. The idea had merit though…

When she started trying to rock her hips again, he knew it was time. Moving up on his knees, he grabbed her and forced her to lie down on her stomach. She fidgeted, looking somewhat uncomfortable. Unable to stop himself, he slapped her ass and said, “On your hands and knees, honey.”

She froze. Finally, she looked over her shoulder. “What?”

“You heard me, Kellie.”

“Hmm, are you sure?”

He could feel his eyes take that bronze hue, his lion pushing to the forefront. He managed to rein it in, but barely. When he spoke up again, his voice had turned lower and huskier. “We are lions, Mate. This is what we do.”

“Oh. Okay.”

His human side noticed her hesitancy and asked, “Have you never tried that position before?” She shook her head no. “Oh.”

He remembered what she’d told him about her previous relationships, realizing the men her lioness had picked wouldn’t have been dominant enough to take her in such a way. He’d be her first; the thought was thrilling on its own. His cock spasmed, semen gliding down. He fisted himself, pumping his erection a few times. A growl escaped him, and she turned around, catching him in the act.

He watched her eyes widen, felt her arousal spike. Her scent deepened, and it was all he could do not to slam into her right there and then. Instead, he pushed her body into the position he wanted, making sure her ass was high in the air. Oh yeah…

“Just like that,” he whispered, rubbing her cheeks with greedy hands.

His eyes traced her puckered rose, wondering what she’d do if he touched her there, if he dipped his finger inside her. No, she wasn’t ready for this yet, but one day… One day, he’d take her there. Oh yes, he would. “Ready, baby?”

She nodded, her breasts swaying under her. He grinned, grabbed her hips in both hands, aligned himself…and pushed. She gasped but never told him to stop. No, instead she braced herself and let him fuck her to heaven and back. Just as a mate would.

He closed his eyes at the thought and rejoiced in the feel of her, wondering why he hadn’t wanted such a bond before. For the first time in maybe forever, he was right at home. Deep inside his mate, with her screams ringing over their heads, and her walls clenching around his pistoning cock.

Yes, he was home.

* * * *

Hours later, her body sticking to the sheet, Kellie looked at the ceiling and wondered what had happened to her life. Here she was, lying snuggled against a seriously hot male specimen who’d claimed her as mate, and her lioness was purring. Purring!

“I don’t understand,” she mumbled, waking the man beside her.

“What don’t you?” he asked, brushing her hair away from her face.
