Chapter 28:
The questhouse given to us was quiet. Secluded: One of the perks of being the Alpha’s mate, I guess.
Callan locked the door behind us. He didn’t say a word didn’t have to. The way he looked at me said everything
I stood by the bed, heart thudding. My skin still smelled like ash and smoke from the cave, but his eyes made me forget every scrape and scar. They burned into me like I was the only thing he saw.
“Come here,” he said, voice low and rough.
I didn’t hesitate
He met me halfway, gripping my waist, pulling me against him. His mouth crashed into mine–hungry, heated, claiming, I gasped, fingers threading through his hair, tugging. He groaned into my mouth like i lit a fuse inside him!!
“You drive me crazy, he muttered between kisses. “Do you know how many nights I dreamed of this?“}
His hands roamed down my back, finding skin beneath my shirt. I helped him, dragging the fabric over my head and tossing it aside. His lips found my neck, and my knees almost buckled X
He lifted me like I weighed nothing and laid me down on the bed, his body hovering above mine, eyes devouring every inch
I could feel the heat of his body through every layer of clothing.
“You’re so damn beautiful,” he said, voice husky. “And you’re mine.“))
“Then claim me.” I whispered.
He growled, and that’s all the warning I got before his lips were on me again–hot, possessive, desperate.2
clothes hit the floor one by one. There were no walls between us anymore, no curses, no fear. Only us. Skin to skin. Bre
He didn’t rush E
Breath to breath.
Callan’s hands explored every inch of me like he was memorizing it. His fingers trailed slowly down my ribs and over my hips, stopping to squeeze, to caress, to learn His mouth followed, kissing lower–over the curve of my breast, down my stomach–until I was gasping for
When his lips wrapped around my nipple. I arched into him. He was careful but intense, tongue circling, then flicking as one hand worked the other breast. My fingers dug into his shoulders, needing more.
“You feel like heaven,” he muttered, lips brushing my skin..
He continued lower, kissing down my abdomen until he reached my thighs. His hands gripped them firmly, spreading me open. He glanced up once, his eyes wild with hunger!
“Tell me what you need,” he said.
“You” I breathed. “Now”
But he wasn’t done taking his time!
His mouth pressed between my legs and I cried out–his tongue slow, deliberate, driving me out of my mind. I grabbed the sheets, back arching, thighs trembling as he worshipped me. It built and built until I thought I might break.
Then he came back up, kissing me deeply, letting me taste the desire between us.
“I want to feel you.” I whispered, voice rough
“You will,” he growled i
He lined himself up, gaze locked to mine. And when he slid inside, slow and deep, we both gasped. It was more than physical–it was everything His hands gripped my hips, my legs wrapped around him, and we moved together, slow at first, then harder, deeper. We didn’t stop until we were breathless, tangled in each other, and completely undone.
The heat between us was overwhelming, now it was after midnight and still our lovemaking was intense and passionate. I was sore, but it was a satisfying soreness)
Callan took his time, learning my body with his mouth and hands like he’d been waiting his whole life for this moment
His mouth met mine again, slower this time Deep and drugging. His hips moved with purpose, every thrust syncing with my pulse. I clung to him, nails digging into his back, gasping his name like a prayer
gentle, but there was an edge underneath, the primal need of a man holding back his wolf. I could feel it in the way his body trembled above mine, how his eyes glowed faintly as he stared down at me
“I need to mark you” he said, voice strained “Tell me to stop if it’s too much ”
Instead, i tiftad my head, baring my neck to him. “Do it“E
That was all he needed
He kissed the curse of my neck first, as if asking my skin for permission Then his fangs sank in–not deep, but enough to make my body jolt and my wolf howl inside me burned and thrilled all at once, the pain twisting into pleasure that rippled through my spine / My mark His scent mingling with mine. The bond snapped into place like lightning
as shudder against me. The growl that escaped his chest was now, full of possession and relief.
When he looked down at me again, something wild softened in his eyes. “You’re mine now”
pidit hesitate. I leaned forward and bit into the side of his neck, night over les pulse. He grunted, eyes fluttering shut as my teeth broke

skin, sealing the bond from my end.
His taste was like power, earthy and electric.
We stared at each other, both of us breathing hard, our connection pulsing like a second heartbeat between us
Then he kissed me again, slower, deeper. No more urgency. Just need. The kind that didn’t rush. The kind that consumed.!!!
When we moved together again, there was no hesitation. Every touch was magnified by the bond we had just sealed I felt his every emotion–his hunger, his devotion, his need to protect. And he felt mine–my trust, my want, my complete surrender to him, We didn’t stop until we were both spent and tangled together in the sheets, our marks glowing faintly against each other’s skin.
