abdomen. Her low moans gave way to soft growls rising from deep in her throat.
    It was time. He kissed her, thrusting his tongue into her mouth, pushing this roused state to the next level. They twined their tongues, wrapping and caressing within each other’s mouth. He drew back and nipped the corner of her lip. They were both breathing heavily.
    He pulled apart just a little. “Time for us to dive into your heat.”
    Diana’s emerald eyes were glazed. She whispered, “I’ve no idea what to do. This is all so new, being solo.”
    “Your nature is stronger than you suspect, sweetheart. Let me show you the way and then you can decide.”
    Her admission proved she hadn’t learned her position of equal power, which meant her husband hadn’t been the alpha to a clan. Perhaps they didn’t belong to one and her husband had dominated her completely, which was common enough for paired leopards where only one could be the leader.
    She nodded in response. He grabbed several condoms from the bin before kneeling. Shawn tugged her hand, drawing her down to the futon. She arched, exposing a slender column of her neck. His breath came out in short spurts. He knew she didn’t want him to mark her, and he battled a raging hunger to bite her neck. Claim her. Possess her.
    Diana pushed up on her hands and knees. “Are you ready?”
    “Not for what you think.” He caressed her hip.
    She settled back on her heels, peering over her shoulder. “Whatever you suggest.”
    He lifted her chin. Green fire danced in her gaze. “During our first time, I want to face you and see every one of your expressions, kitten.” He gently flipped Diana onto her side. He coaxed her knees apart and climbed in between her legs. Her pussy glistened pink. He rubbed his cock over her wet folds, making them both shudder.
    “Shawn, please hurry.” She bared her claws.
    Diana raked her hands down his back. Her scratches pushed his alpha dominance to the edge. His fangs nipped the air, fighting the need to taste her skin. He tore open the foil packet, very much aware that Diana continued moving against his cock as he removed the condom.
    Shuddering, he clamped his jaw shut. He took hold of his shaft and unrolled the condom down his length. His voice came out a hoarse whisper. “Give me a couple of rounds to wear the edge off you. We’ll both feel better.”
    Shawn pressed his cock into her opening, then rocked back. She arched and he thrust full force into her. A sultry cry fell from her lips. She closed her amazing liquid eyes and he let loose the leopard nature inside him. Shawn struggled to keep from shifting.
    He caught the skin of her neck between his canines and held onto her. He slammed himself into her lush body again and again, using his hands to lift her bottom. His balls slapped against her ass with the force of his thrusts.
    It took a conscious effort to release his teeth from her neck; he settled for rubbing the side of his face against her cheek. The craving to go deeper, further into Diana’s body spurred him into grinding his hips between her legs, seating himself as far as he could go. He drove his length into his kitten and then pulled out, almost disconnecting them. At the last centimeter he stopped and plunged deep into her pussy. Shawn continued hammering into her, again and again, rocking back only to thrust deeper into Diana, until his lungs burned and she whimpered.
    Somehow he had let go of his complete control and link with her. This feeling burst apart in his brain. This woman-leopard captivated him into wanting her pleasure more than his own. He slowed, not giving into rushing Diana too soon toward climax.
    Shawn pushed up on his arms, and without leaving her body, he knelt between her legs. He inched back and watched as his dick slid out from her body. He arched up, easing back inside her velvet grip. Again, he pulled his dick slowly from her pussy, rubbing his head at her opening.
    “Oh, kitten, if only you could see this
