Circus Wolf (24 page)

She
patted him. “You’re no longer a lycanthrope, but you still have that Alpha
branding touch.” He laughed, and she heard pure joy in his tone. He lifted
himself with powerful arms and swung over and straddled her, his flesh
scorching hers. Her core heated to a shivery liquid as their kisses grew more
frantic. He laid her back prone on the silken sheets. Wild with fever, she
arched her back and thrust her hips forward, inviting him to love her. She
moaned in ecstasy as he explored the smooth contour of her belly and the moist
triangle of curly hair with his hands, his lips. He kissed her, caressing her
as his hand slid between her thighs. She arched her hips again to meet his
seeking fingers. Then she wanted more. Eager for the hot hardness that throbbed
against her apex, she arched again. He rained kisses on her face, then
French-kissed her until her core was hot, tingling, and wildly receptive. She
clung to him as he gently entered her and began the slow, rhythmic dance of
passion. When she thought she couldn’t stand a second more of her rising and
agonizing desire, he quicken the pace. She slid her hands around his waist,
then lower and dug her fingers into his hard, unyielding buttocks, crying out
as he brought her to an earthshaking pinnacle. She exploded again and again,
shattering into so many pieces that pain and pleasure joined in an unbelievable
orchestration of fireworks. They rode the wave of crazed wildness until Hugh
convulsed inside her, and together they plunged over the edge into a grateful
release while clinging to one another with their last ounce of strength.

Hugh
rolled off her and they lay side by side, breathing hard and trying to catch
their breaths.

After
a few moments, he drew her into his arms again and held her. When the afterglow
faded,
she looked up at him.
He
winked at her with his thickly-lashed eyes and then kissed her nose. “She-Tiger
or human hellcat, you take my breath away.”

She
kissed his chest and laughed. “If we can perform a mind-blowing romp in our
condition, just imagine what we can do once we’ve totally healed.”

He
clasped her hand and entwined their fingers. “I can’t imagine it being any
better. Even in this uncertain world, after what we’ve lived through together,
I’m confident our love, passion, and desire will grow stronger as we share and
experience life together.” She traced a prominent tendon in his hand. “I’m
ready and excited to start that new phase of my…our life.”

“Excellent,
you’re already thinking like a married lady. And I promise to devote myself to
making certain you never regret it.” He stroked her cheek. “
In a
few days, after we pull up stakes and head for Europe, I’ll get my dream
of traveling the full loop
with the circus beside the woman of my dreams.”
