Moon's Law (New Moon Wolves 2 ~ Bite of the Moon ~ BBW Romance) (19 page)

"Yeah." He took the phone from her. Angling the screen so she could see, he scrolled down to W and then to her name, Charlotte Wills. "And here’s where you are."

She peered at the phone screen. "Oh, wow. I don't know what to say. You did that for me?"

"I would do more than that, if you let me." He held her gaze for a second and she had to look away, unable to withstand the desire burning bright in his dark eyes. "I know you were mad about all those girls. But I met them only because I hadn't found you yet. If I'd met you first, your number would've been the only one in my phone."

Clearing his throat, he continued, "I gave you your own ring-tone, too." He tapped the screen and wolf howls filled the kitchen. There were two of them, going back and forth. "I heard about them online. They're from Yellowstone. They've been mates for over a decade and never leave each other's side. Her alpha was caught in a trap, and she not only fed him so he wouldn't starve, she went and found a park ranger to help. She saved his life. Just like you saved mine."

Charlotte’s breathing hitched. This was possibly the sweetest thing any guy had ever done for her. He'd really put some thought into it. Something she'd never seen from her ex, who treated her like she was a pizza he could order in whenever he felt like it. "Thank you, Kane," she whispered.

His hand cupped the side of her face and he dipped his head down until their eyes were even. "Talk is cheap. This is so much better." His lips descended on hers and fire raced from her mouth to sear the rest of her body. She’d always known Kane was hot, but his touch was like an open flame, dancing and licking over her as it burned.

"Oh, Kane," she breathed.

"Shh." He shushed her and then deepened their kiss. His tongue stroked hers, and his teeth nipped at her bottom lip, which he followed up with sucking the whole thing into his mouth. Charlotte’s knees went weak and she pressed into him, leaning into his strength.

After a moment, he pulled back, his breathing ragged, his eyes dark pools of seduction. "What do you think? Can I be part of your plan?"

Charlotte froze for a moment, considering his question. Her ex had never kissed her like that. She couldn’t even call what Kane did a kiss. It was more a brand, one that marked her as his. She could deny it all she wanted, but it wouldn't change the fact that deep down in the dark place where her wolf lived, she wanted him.

It might be a disaster. It was probably a bad idea, but that didn’t matter. They'd been through too much to
not
be together. Instinctively she knew they needed each other. It wasn't just about attraction, it was about healing and holding each other up until they could both stand on their own again.

Chapter Twenty-Four

Kane groaned as their kiss deepened. He cradled Charlotte in his arms, wanting to treasure the moment as much as the woman he enjoyed it with. Her scent filled his head until he was dizzy with it. His whole life, he'd been chasing the wrong idea of beauty, but with one bite, that had all changed, and while he wasn't a hundred percent sold on being a werewolf, finding Charlotte was a check in the pro column.

She filled his hands with her soft curves, her body yielding to his touch. His ears picked up the way her heart quickened when he reached down to squeeze her ass and grind his cock into her pelvis. That he had that kind of effect on her made him even harder.

He pulled at her shirt. "This. Off. Now."

Charlotte resisted. "You first." She yanked at the buttons on his shirt, growling softly when they wouldn't give way.

Annoyed, he swatted her hands away and ripped his shirt off with one quick jerk. Buttons clattered to the floor. He'd probably ruined his shirt, but he needed her now or he was going to lose his mind. She bit her lip at the sight of him, and then reached out to press a hand against his chest. "You're built like a body builder. How do you find the time to work out?"

He caught her hand and placed it at his groin. "I think of you. That's all the exercise I need." Crushing her against him, he drove his tongue into her mouth, doing everything in his power to lap up every last bit of her scent and swallow it inside him.

Coming up for air, he said, his voice low and ragged, "Get that shirt off before I rip it apart."

Charlotte's breathing hitched as they locked gazes. Her eyes were wide pools, deep enough to drown a man should he fall in. She did as he asked, her hands going to the shirt and lifting it over her head. Save for her lace panties, she was naked.

Kane just looked at her for a moment, reacquainting himself with her curves. The glimpse he'd had of her earlier had burned itself into his brain and he found his memory accurate. Her skin glowed, pale as cream, and her pink-tipped breasts were glorious. He would hold onto her wide hips as he took her, pulling her as close as he could.

"You're beautiful," he said, hefting one breast in his hand. "I wanted you the second you knocked me over. Did you know that?"

She shook her head, her eyes glazing as his thumb found her nipple and flicked it into prominence.

"It's like you knocked some sense into me and I saw you for the first time." He leaned down and sucked her nipple into his mouth, teasing its twin with his other hand.

"I-I didn't know." Her voice came out breathy as she responded to his touch. He could smell her desire in the air and knew a slick wetness waited for him between her legs. His pants were tight enough to split around his hardening cock.

"I'm glad your ex was an idiot," he said, his tone sharp. "Because you were meant for me." With that his hands went to her panties and he ripped them off in one swift movement. Nuzzling her neck, he carefully folded what was left of the lace and put it in his pocket. He'd never done anything like that before, but Charlotte was special and he knew he was going to want to remember their first time together.

***

Charlotte leaned into Kane, her mind whirling from both his touch and his words. When he moved in to kiss her again, she turned away.

"What is it, Char?" He'd been growling commands at her the last few minutes, but just then, his voice was quiet, tender even.

"I feel broken, Kane. What I am. What I've been through." Her voice caught and a tremor shook her body. Did monsters deserve love? Was that even what she was?

"You're not broken." He gave her a little shake and then lifted her chin up until her gaze met his. "Do you know what I see when I look at you?"

Mute, she shook her head.

"You're brave, loyal, and gorgeous. There's no one else I want to be with." He leaned down and nibbled her earlobe for a second before saying, "What we've become, who knows what will happen with that? But what
we
have? You and I? That's a good thing, and I'm not letting it go."

"Do you think that's true?" She wanted to believe him.

"Yes." Kane pulled her tight against him. "You're mine. And I'm yours, if you want me." He captured her lips with his then and kissed her until her lungs burned and her heart throbbed with need. When he let her breathe, he said, "Tell me you want me. Let me make you happy, Char."

"Yes," she sighed. She did want him. Needed him even. His touch felt right when everything else around her was wrong. It had been that way since she'd run into him that day on Glen Vine's Main Street. "I...just..." She trailed off.

"What? Tell me, and I'll make it happen." There was a deep fierceness in his voice that told her he meant every word.

"Just don't leave me, Kane. I don't think I could bear it." Her heart already threatened to break in two at just the thought of being dumped again.

He shook his head. "Don't you know?"

"What?"

"Wolves mate for life. This isn't just one night, Char. I think it might be forever." He walked her back toward the kitchen counter and lifted her up. Kneeling down, he spread her knees. "I know your ex hurt you, but tonight, I'm going to make you forget he even breathed on this earth. It's my name that will fill your lips, and that's the only one that matters, you hear me?"

He nipped at her thighs, alternating between lips and teeth. She shivered and gasped as he neared the nexus between her thighs. Before he touched her, he lifted his head to say one last thing. "You're going to scream my name until it echoes in your soul. There will be no room for anyone else ever again."

With that, he thrust his tongue through her nether lips. Charlotte fought not to melt into a puddle of sexual ecstasy, but it was damn difficult with a man as hot and alpha as Kane between her legs. Forever would be awesome if it was full of Kane touching her like this.

He wanted
her.

Not those other girls, the ones she knew he'd been with before, but her.

The pain she'd carried since her ex had dumped her evaporated. Kane was right, her ex hadn't been the one for her. He'd just been a stepping stone on the way to finding Mr. Right. She felt the truth of that in the pleasure Kane's tongue sent rippling through her.

Kane was who she was supposed to be with. Her nose had been trying to tell her all along, but she'd been too hurt to listen.

Kane flicked the sensitive bud at her core with his tongue and slipped his fingers inside her. Charlotte threw her head back as her hips writhed on the counter, not caring that she was covering the granite with her juices. She would clean it up later. After Kane was done fucking her senseless.

Reaching for his head, she held tight to his hair, urging him to go harder and faster. Her body pulsed and quivered as pleasure gained momentum. Before she knew it, she was keening and shuddering into Kane as an orgasm hit her so hard it left her stunned and barely able to breathe.

"Kane, Kane," she whispered, struggling to find air and the ability to think.

"That's right, baby. Say my name." He helped her off the counter, catching her when she stumbled, her legs numb and leaden. Sweeping her up into his arms as if she weighed nothing, he headed upstairs.

She pointed to her bedroom door. "There."

He shouldered the door open and tossed her onto the bed. She watched as he shucked his pants and boxers, enjoying the view of his sculpted physique. Most hard things hurt when you ran into them, but when she'd slammed into Kane that day on Main Street, the feel of being pushed up against him had made her body sing. And tonight, she would take all the hardness he had to give.

Naked, Kane jumped on top of her, covering her curves with his lean strength. He kissed her, and she tasted her essence mixed with his. She gripped his shoulders and deepened their kiss, wanting more. Their tongues tangled and they nipped at each other's bottom lips.

Giving her lip one last hard bite that left her gasping, Kane moved down her body, gathering her breasts in his hands. Sucking her nipples in turn, he didn't stop until they were hard, aching points.

"Spread your legs," he said, his hand going to her thighs, seeking the heat at her core.

She let her knees fall open, sighing as his hard length slid inside her. He was so big she felt her body stretch to fit him.

His head fell back and his eyes closed as he sank all the way into her. "You're so tight and wet, Char. I need you."

"Yes, Kane," she hissed, hands reaching for his shoulders and pulling him close. "I need you, too," she whispered in his ear.

He went for her breasts, pulling the nipple almost savagely with his lips. Charlotte gasped in surprise and then moaned as the momentary discomfort melted into pleasure. Kane thrust into her as he played with her breasts, pulling on the sensitive tips and then biting them until Charlotte thought she would burst into flames.

She'd never had a rough lover before, but she liked what Kane did.
Maybe it's the wolf in me.
Her wolf ran close to the surface, drawn by the frantic tangling of their bodies and the pleasure that pounded through her heart.

She had the urge to sink her teeth into Kane, to plant herself in his flesh and taste his blood
. That definitely has to be my wolf.
  But she didn't fight it. Instead she reached down and yanked Kane up by the hair, covering his mouth with hers. Their kiss this time was hungry and fierce, full of hard edges that fought for dominance.

He pushed his hands under her back, lifting her upright into a crushing embrace. The change in position allowed him even deeper inside her, and Charlotte moaned as he made the darkness within her come to life. Pleasure sparked all over her body, zooming through her system faster and faster. She undulated her hips against him, struggling to take more of Kane.

They clung together, rocking and thrusting as one until she cried out. The orgasm rocked her, stealing her breath. Her core fluttered around Kane until he succumbed to his own climax with a harsh yell. They didn't stop though, the need to be one was too great. They held onto each other, their bodies shaking with the power of their coupling.

Charlotte rested her head on Kane's shoulder, breathing in his scent. "Wow."

"Yeah. That was amazing."

She turned her head and looked up at him. "You sound surprised."

He was silent for a moment, his gaze searching her face. "It's never been that good, Charlotte."

She couldn't keep from smiling, pleased she'd outdone all his previous lady friends. Point for the curvy girl. "Same here. What do you think that means?"
