Brenna
His c*ck brushed across my lower lips, causing my sex to throb with want. Then he pushed into me slowly as I dug my fingers into his back, trying to quell the pain.
“Are you okay?” Adan asked, his voice heavy with want. “I can stop—”
“No, keep going,” I cut him off, pressing my lips to his, lost in the emotion of the moment.
He pushed in farther, and his c*ck hit a barrier. Then he held me tightly and plunged through it, taking my innocence with him. I gasped against his lips as he slowly continued to push in. When he was fully seated, he waited for a moment for the pain to subside and then started moving in and out, slowly at first. Soon, the pain eased and was replaced with pleasure, just as he said it would be.
Before long, I was pushing against him as I pulled him to me, wanting all he could give. Sensations filled me, unlike any I’d felt before, as he pounded into me, his lips groping mine as passion overtook us both.
Adan’s eyes met mine as I wrapped my legs around his waist. “I love you, Brenna.”
“I love you, too,” I replied, running my fingers through his hair. Then I pulled his lips to mine and opened for him as he rolled his hips into me, truly making love to me. Soon, my breath quickened as my whole body responded. Then my walls clenched around him, and his c*ck swelled as we both exploded in orgasm, going over the edge together.
“Are you okay?” Adan kissed my neck as his breathing slowed and then raised up to look into my eyes, smoothing my hair back away from my eyes.
“Yeah.” I nodded, smiling as I kissed his neck. “How was it?”
A smile lit his lips as he kissed my neck. “Fantastic. How was it for you?”
“Great.” My breathing slowed, but I wanted him again.
“Well, it’ll just get better from here.”
“Promise?”
“Oh, yeah.”
I rolled him over, and he sat up, holding me as he crushed his lips to mine. But I pushed him back and sank down onto him as he gasped.
“God, you feel so good,” he breathed as he pushed into me, his eyes filled with love and lust as he held my hips, pulling me to him again and again.
“I now claim you as my Mate,” I breathed between thrusts, my wolf purring her satisfaction. “You are now mine.” Then I leaned down and bit his shoulder, drawing blood. The taste of him filled my mouth, as well as my soul.
Then he flipped me over and pushed into me hard, all niceties gone. “I now claim you as my Mate, from now to eternity.” Then he leaned over and bit my shoulder, drawing blood, too. Then he pulled back and gazed into my eyes, my blood on his lips. “You. Are. Mine,” he growled as he crushed his lips to mine, allowing me to taste my blood on his lips.
Suddenly, the longing I’d felt for him, my Mate, for so long was filled. At that moment, I realized that the part of my soul, that part of me that had been missing all this time... was him.
Adan must have felt it, too, for he rolled me over and thrust into me over and again, whispering words of love as he slammed into me, taking me hard this time. It was then that I realized how much he’d been holding back before.
We made love into the night, tasting each other, exploring, each time he took me better than the last. And our enemies lurking outside the castle walls never crossed our minds.
After a while, I lay across his chest spent. Adan ran his fingers lazily through the strands of my hair, leaning in to kiss the top of my head now and then. “How do you feel?”
“Great,” I breathed, pressing my lips to his chest. Then I propped my head on his chest, looking into his eyes. “How do you feel?”
“Words can’t express how I feel, but wonderful is good enough.” He chuckled as he kissed me again. “Come on. Let’s eat. Then I want to take the next few days to teach you a few things.”
“Teach me a few things, huh?” I laughed, shaking my head. “I guess if you want to keep a man happy, all you have to do is give him sex and food.”
“But not necessarily in that order.” Adan gave me a sexy smile as he slid out of bed and pulled me with him. A streak of blood covered the sheets, proof of my virginity. “I’ll have someone come and change the sheets later.”
“I’ll do it in a little while,” I replied. “Let’s get cleaned up, and then we’ll eat.”
“Great idea.” Adan led me toward the bathroom and turned on the shower. “I want to take care of you.”
“Sounds good to me.” I smiled, a bit sore, as he led me into the bathroom. But as a wolf, I heal quickly. So, by the time our shower is over, I’ll be completely healed.
He turned on the water and pulled me to his chest as he waited for it to heat. Then he pulled back and looked into my eyes. “I’ll always protect you, My Queen, and I’ll always love you.”
A small smile lit my lips as I pulled him to me. “And I’ll always love you, My King.”
He pressed his lips to mine as my wolf purred. We were now one.
“So, we’re soul mates now?”
A smile lit his lips as he looked into my eyes. “Nearly. But to become true Soul Mates, we must perform the Mating Ceremony.”
I chuckled. “Umm... isn’t that what we just did?”
He burst out laughing. “No, we claimed each other as Mates. A Mating Ceremony is when our souls are bound for eternity. It’s usually done a few years after a couple becomes a Mated Pair.”
“Why?” I stepped into the shower and pulled him with me, leaning back to wet my hair down.
He squirted some shampoo into his hands and began washing my hair, his smile fading. “Becoming Soul Mates is a very serious matter to consider. If one of us dies, then the other will die shortly after of a broken heart. Our hearts and our souls will be linked forever, in this life and in our lives after.”
“It doesn’t sound so bad to me.” I shrugged. “It feels as if we’re already Soul Mates. Maybe we performed the ceremony in another life.”
Suddenly, he gripped my chin firmly, forcing me to look into his eyes, obviously wanting me to take this seriously. “Brenna, this isn’t something to be taken lightly. Think about it hard before you agree to it.”
A crease formed between my eyes, surprised at his sudden seriousness as my heart fell. “Why? Don’t you want to be Soul Mates?”
“Yes, but I’m much older than you and have lived many years—”
“As soon as we have another Pack Witch, I want to do the ceremony... with you.” I let out a deep breath as I placed my hand on his cheek. “For if something were to happen to you, I wouldn’t want to live one more moment on this earth without you.”
