running to clear the table. When all the dishes were gone and the room was quiet, he reached across the table with his palm held upright. She slipped her fingers into his waiting hand. He raised it to his lips and kissed the back of it.
    “I don’t want you to worry about anything. I never want to see you hurt,” he said. “I’m Alpha here and this is my domain. When we are mated, everything that is mine will be yours. I’m also a leader, and that means my Pack matters are my own to worry about. My responsibility is to protect and cherish you, and I’ll do that with everything I have. If you’ll accept me.”
    “I already have,” she replied.
    “Come here,” he said in low, seductive tone and then led her to stand.
    Kalena closed the distance between them and sat on his lap with her legs facing outward. Thane didn’t miss one beat as he claimed her lips. He tasted salty and sweet like the food they’d just finished eating, but with every breath she took, there was no denying the rich scent of sandalwood and fresh rain all over his skin.
    In their frenzied haste, Thane grabbed both sides of her hips, lifted her up, and then led her down so that she was straddling his lap. She groaned and threw her head back the moment his cool lips came in contact with the delicate juncture along her collarbone. His hands found their way under her short sundress and his thumbs were flirting along the edges of her panties.
    “Thane…”
    “You’re addicting,” he whispered, his tongue leaving hot trails against her skin.
    “The door…anyone could walk in…” Her fingers were tangled in his hair, pulling his mouth closer to her breasts.
    “They already know that you are mine,” he mumbled just before he bent lower to gently kiss the tops of her breasts. “Your heat smells like strawberries and glaze.”
    She laughed softly. “That’s probably because I just ate them.”
    “Now it’s my turn.” He pushed her panties aside and glided a finger along her wet center.
    Kalena gasped. “Quick. I need you. Don’t tease me.” At this point, she didn’t care what anyone thought of her or if they saw, she only focused on how much she loved being in Thane’s arms.
    He unbuttoned and unzipped his pants in record time, freeing his engorged cock and letting it brush against the insides of her thighs.
    “Quick, huh?” He grinned. “Quick doesn’t always mean gentle.”
    “Who said anything about gentle?” She lifted her hips and positioned her sex against his cockhead.
    An expression washed over his face as she slid down onto the meaty length of him, inch by inch.
    “Something tells me you enjoy this position,” he rasped, grabbing her ass and coaxing her lower.
    “I like it a lot,” she replied, just as they found a rhythm that suited them both.
    They got lost in the moment. There was absolutely nothing that could ruin this high for her. Her clit pulsed on each downward stroke, and her sex clenched tightly around his cock on the upstroke. Her orgasm was a quick build this time, almost as if he’d willed it so. His tongue lashed against her nipples, luring her further into ecstasy. His fingers gripped her meaty backside, driving her down to the root of his cock.
    Her climax spread through her, blossoming like a tulip after the rain. When he joined her in completion, his seed pulsed straight up into her core. She muffled her cries by pressing her lips together. His groans were low and hoarse, but still sounded like music to her ears.
    Thane let his head fall onto her chest right near her heart. She held him tightly against her as she struggled to gain her breath again.
    There was a sharp knock at the door to the left of them. Before they could prepare themselves for company, Brant pushed through the doors holding an envelope.
    “Oh!” Brant exclaimed as he looked back and forth between the two. “Um, sorry.” He turned and headed back to the door.
    “Give us a few minutes, Brant,” Thane called out behind
