“Zachary, how is this possible? I’m so confused.” She watched him tense at her words.

“Just drive. I’ll explain everything soon enough,” he whispered.

The look of nervousness returned across his features as he looked around the parking lot.

Marley started her car and headed to her complex. The moment a black SUV pulled behind her, Zachary retrieved a phone out of the dark denim jeans he wore.

“Cole, keep the car going and wait. Give me an hour. If I’m not back, call me. Keep a watch out for anything suspicious. No one is to come near the apartment. Is that clear? Good.”

He closed his phone and looked over at Marley. Her heart rate jumped.
After what he just said, he already plans on leaving. What in
the hell? Maybe he didn’t like me, or maybe…And what’s this stuff
about suspicious people? Holy shit, what have I gotten myself into?

She couldn’t think anymore. Well, it figured
. He’s way too good
looking to find me attractive, anyway. At least I got to sample the
goods,
she thought dryly. The last thing she wanted to admit to herself was how much the rejection hurt and the how easily he could leave crushed her.

After a few blocks, she pulled into the parking lot and grabbed her bags out of the back. Zachary followed her to the door, scanning everything around them. Marley noticed he seemed to sniff every few seconds. Could he be sick? What could he possibly be smelling for?

The key twisted in the metal door knob, and she pushed the door open. “So, what is going on, exactly? Why is it not safe?” She shut the door behind him.

The bags dropped to her feet suddenly as Zachary lifted her into his arms. His mouth hungrily found hers, driving a need so intense into her she felt as if she were drowning in his taste. Marley wrapped herself completely around him, her legs around his waist and her arms tightly around his neck.

The pressure from his chest against her breasts made them swell.

Both Marley and Zachary ripped at each other’s clothes while slowly making their way to her bedroom. By the time they got to the bed, all Marley wore was a pair of unzipped jeans and socks, which she desperately wanted off.

“Marley, you don’t know how long I’ve been looking for you. I never thought I would find you, but there was no way I would give up. I couldn’t,” Zachary said against her lips.

“I thought I was going crazy. I never imagined I would get to meet the man who appeared in my dreams. I can’t believe you actually found me.”

Like air, Marley felt herself weightlessly lowered to the bed.

Zachary fit perfectly between her thighs.
Now if I could get these
damn pants off,
Marley thought impatiently.

Zachary opened his mouth to say something, but Marley quickly stopped him. “Zachary, tell me later.” She pushed down her pants as best as she could with him in the way. In one swift tug he pulled them off for her, along with her panties in the process.

“God, your scent is so much stronger now.” His face instantly lowered between her thighs. Large palms pushed her farther apart and eased their way toward her pussy until he used his fingers to separate her.

Zachary moaned when his tongue slid inside of Marley’s wetness.

He knew he should be telling her about the situation they both faced, but he couldn’t stop himself from tasting and enjoying her first.

Impatiently, he kicked off his pants, which rested at his knees.

A moan escaped Marley’s lips as she buried her fingers in his hair, urging him on. Slowly, she lifted herself on her elbows to watch him as he sucked her folds into his mouth. Zachary never looked away from her face. He stared, captivated with the fascination that caused her eyes to fight to stay open. She seemed to enjoy watching him. The width of his cock swelled until he was positive he had never been so thick in all of his life.

With gentle flicks, he teased her clit, watching her jump at the sensitivity. Zachary pulled off his boxers, stroking his cock to the slow rhythm of his tongue. Gently, he eased two fingers inside of her, stretching her pussy to better prepare her for his size. As Marley’s moans became louder, he watched her arms collapse from behind her.

Marley let out a scream as she fell back to the bed.

“Zachary, please don’t make me beg. I want you now.”

Impatiently, Marley pulled at his shoulders. He smiled at her with a crooked grin. With his two fingers, he found her G-spot and gave a quick push.

“Not until you come.” He pushed again, watching her back arch.

Marley was already starting to tighten around his fingers. He moved them in a consistent circular motion, causing her moans to turn back into screams in seconds.

“That’s right, Marley, come for me. I want to taste you.” Zachary thrust his fingers into her at a fast pace.

The faster Zachary thrust, the more of her release he licked off of his fingers. When Marley lay there gasping, his fingers withdrew. He wanted to taste what he had missed.

A small whimper escaped her lips at his tongue sliding inside of her. He savored her flavor, taking his time to drink up her essence.

Wetness started to reestablish itself as she became aroused all over again.

* * * *

Marley was having a hard time thinking straight with Zachary’s tongue creating new sensations throughout her body. Heat rebuilt itself into a small inferno at the pit of her stomach.

Smoothness covered the inside of her walls. Zachary seemed to be taking in everything she released. Marley fought to keep her eyes open. Weight rested on her lower stomach, drawing her attention. She opened her eyes to see a cocky grin on Zachary’s face.

The bed shifted under his weight as he positioned himself between her thighs. The tip of his large cock pressed against her wet pussy.

She wrapped her hand around his thick length, stroking him slowly.

In a figure eight, she traced his tip along her wet opening and over her clit, teasing him like he had done to her in previous encounters.

When she got back to her opening, she placed his tip inside. A deep groan shook his chest. Marley prepared herself for his thrust, but it didn’t come. Instead, he flipped her over on her knees so fast she felt off balance. Then his cock slowly eased into her.

The completion Marley felt was just like before. He fit perfectly, filling her until she couldn’t be filled anymore. His fingers bit into her hips while he slowly pulled out and then thrust back into her even harder.

So she wouldn’t alarm the neighbors, her fingers grasped onto the comforter while she held in her screams. The more his cock slid into her, the more difficult it became to remain quiet. She could already feel her orgasm coming with every pull of his slight withdrawal.

“Zachary, tell me you’re not leaving right after this,” Marley said desperately.

The need to know was driving her crazy. A huge part of her wasn’t ready for him to leave, not after one amazing sexual act. There Ebook piracy is stealing. It is a federal offense.

had to be more good sex to come. She wanted more. An intense need ran through her to find out who the real Zachary was, his likes, dislikes, what drove him to do the things he did. How he found her to begin with.

“No, I’m not leaving,” he said, his voice straining.

Marley’s body relaxed at his words, so much so that her orgasm blindsided her, causing the screams once again to escape her throat.

Zachary’s thrusts pumped harder into her, prolonging her orgasm, dragging it out until the euphoria became unbearable. The feel of his cock swelling was briefly forgotten when a slight stinging raced down the back of her shoulder.

Marley’s mind exploded into thoughts.
He bit me again!
She opened her mouth to tell him that she actually felt that one and it wasn’t too pleasant, but his coming inside of her locked her mind completely.

A mass of questions ignited all at once. Her mind panicked.

Zachary pulled out slowly and Marley spun around to face him.

“Start explaining fast because I’ll give you two minutes before I start freaking out about what you just did.”

The startled look he gave her said he had no idea what she was talking about. It only confused her even more. She prayed the answers came soon.

After Zachary remained silent for a few moments, Marley decided to start asking the questions. He obviously needed help on where to start.

“You said you weren’t leaving afterward, so when are you then?”

Marley braced herself. Even though she knew he planned to leave, a part of her didn’t want their connection lost. There was something there. She felt positive that they shared a deeper connection than most people. Marley just couldn’t see him traveling all the way to her to have sex and then vanish. It didn’t make sense.

“
We’re
leaving as soon as I finish telling you what you want to know.” Zachary got dressed.

Confused, Marley shook her head back and forth. “We? I don’t understand.”

“Yes, Cole, Jordan, you, and I, we’re going to be leaving,” he repeated.

Me, leaving where? I can’t leave. What about my family, my
business? I don’t even know this man!
Marley’s fingers ran through her hair, pulling it out of her face. “Where are we
supposedly
leaving to?” she asked, placing her hands on her hips.

His eyes narrowed. She could tell he had picked up her attitude and was trying to figure something out.

“We’re leaving for my estate in Virginia,” he said cautiously.

Marley edged off the bed slowly, walking toward her door to grab her robe. Reflexively, she slipped it on, avoiding looking at him. So many things rushed through her head.

How can he expect me to just leave? We just met. When he said he
was coming for me, I thought it was so he could get to know me
better. Not actually coming to get me and take me away.

“I can’t go with you.” Marley finally looked into his eyes.

They pierced her, penetrating into her very soul. He stood, sliding his shoes on. “Get dressed and walk me out,” he said, his voice deeper than she had ever heard it before.

Well, that had gone better than she thought. Marley slid on a pair of new panties and some jeans with a new shirt. She couldn’t look at him. A part of her almost felt tempted to go, but she reminded herself that she had a business to run. Her family lived here. There was no way she could go traipsing through the countryside with some drop-dead gorgeous lover…stranger.

Marley slid on her shoes and followed Zachary out to the dark SUV. The fact that she couldn’t see inside made her nervous. Why the dark tint?

“Look, I’m sorry if I upset you for not going, but I have my family here and my business. I can’t just leave them behind. Plus, we don’t even really know anything about each other. You understand, right? You can visit me anytime, though, in my dreams, of course,”

she said, smiling.

He looked at her, grinning so wickedly her tongue itched to trace his lips.

“I’m sorry, too,” Zachary said. His smile fell.

Confused, Marley’s eyebrows drew together as she studied him.

“What are you sorry for?”

“This.”

One moment Marley stood there in the parking lot, the next his hand clamped across her mouth and she felt herself being pulled into the SUV. He sat Marley stiffly on his lap, hugging her body against his securely, while Marley struggled and kicked at his shins.

“I know you don’t understand what’s going on, but I’ll tell you if you’ll be quiet and listen. Do you think you can do that?”

His words absorbed in her head. Marley gave one more kick and nodded.

“All right, I’m going to uncover your mouth. I want you to listen to me,” he said, gently.

Zachary removed his hand slowly and looked at the driver and the passenger. “Marley, do you watch the news? Did you hear about the attack that happened not far from here?”

Mention of the news was the last thing Marley expected to hear from him. Letting her mind pause she absorbed his words thinking about the attacks on the news.

“Yes, I watched it. What does an animal attack in Goliad have to do with you kidnapping me?”

He took a deep breath and turned her body to face him. “It wasn’t just any animal attack, Marley. It happened to be a werewolf attack.”

She couldn’t help it, she laughed. Marley laughed so hard tears came down her cheeks and she still couldn’t stop. Not even when he raised an eyebrow at her, it just made her laugh harder. This guy was one insane fruit loop, crazier than anyone she had ever met before.

“You find that amusing, do you? Well, it happens to be true. I know because I’m a werewolf and because the werewolves that killed that family were just eating while they searched for you. Think about it Marley, it happened to be a full moon that night, do you remember?”

Marley tensed slightly in his arms. She did somehow recall seeing something about a full moon, and the neighbors said they heard wolves. Chills crept up her spine, causing her to shiver.
