Reclaiming the Wolf (Cascade Shifters Book 1) (22 page)

Kaya had thought she’d been wet before, then Sy had told her that her pussy belonged to him; she now felt her juices coating her inner thighs.

She wanted this desperately, but knew that begging would only turn Sy off. He liked her strong for a reason.

So she said, “Fuck me hard enough and I may just agree with you.”

Sy growled and moved his free arm under her ass and lifted her as if she weighed no more than a feather. In response, she wrapped her long legs around Sy’s trim waist. And now, with her pussy a few inches from his cock, he released her hands to wrap his other arm around her ribcage and said, “Position me so I can fuck you against the wall.”

After two weeks of celibacy, she didn’t need to be told twice. She gripped his hard, long cock and maintained eye contact as she gave him a squeeze. “Tell me your dick belongs to me, and I’ll consider it.”

“It always has, Kaya-love, and it always will.”

Love surged through her body and her wolf howled.
He is ours.

She positioned him and he thrust to the hilt. She gripped his shoulders and extended her claws a fraction. He hissed as the sharp tips broke his skin, but then he growled and started pounding in and out, each thrust forcing her harder against the wall. She might have bruises tomorrow, but as his long, hard cock started hitting her g-spot, waves of pleasure coursed through her body with each thrust.

She moaned and decided that bruises would be totally worth it.

He moved his arm from around her ribcage so that her back was now against the wall, giving him more leverage to pound into her. He fisted a hand into her hair and pulled her in for a kiss. Without preamble, his tongue swept into her mouth and their teeth clashed. He wasn’t so much kissing her as dominating her.

But damn, the man knew how to kiss.

He simultaneously released her hair and her mouth and she cried out at the loss. But then, he moved a hand between them to rub her clit, and Kaya tilted her head against the wall behind her. “Fuck yes.”

Sy growled and thrust even faster, his balls now slapping against the lower part of her ass. The pressure was building and Kaya clung to his shoulders and leaned forward to kiss him. This time, she swept into his mouth and explored every inch, wanting to memorize every contour and crevice of him.

Then Sy pinched her clit and she cried out as her orgasm hit her, the waves of pleasure and pain almost too much to handle.

As her pussy clenched and released around his cock, Sy broke their kiss and bit her shoulder as he stilled and came inside her.

They remained like that for about a minute. Then he released her shoulder and laid his forehead against her neck. His breath was hot against her skin and she moved one of her hands to his hair. As she gently pet him, he started to give the human equivalent of a purr. His voice was deep and husky when he said, “So who owns your pussy?”

“You.”

He kissed her neck and raised his head. The look in his eyes was possessive and fierce. “You hesitated a second. I think you need more convincing.”

She truly didn’t, but she lived to tease her cougar-shifter. “The woman might be convinced, but the wolf needs more.”

He ran his hands up along her ribcage to under her arms. Then he stepped back from the wall and lowered her, his cock sliding out of her along the way.

Neither she nor her wolf liked the sudden empty feeling.

Sy released her and motioned to the ground. “Then get down and show me your beautiful ass so I can take you from behind.”

She might’ve just orgasmed, but her clit was already throbbing again in anticipation.

Still, she couldn’t resist reaching out and squeezing Sy’s cock. Coated in her juices, she easily pulled up and down his length and some of Sy’s determined glint turned into desire. “Ask nicely, Sylas.”

He moved to take her shoulders, but Kaya released his dick and stepped back. She raised an eyebrow, knowing full well she’d pay for it.

That thought only made her hotter.

“Please, Kaya, get on all fours so I can fuck your wolf into submission.”

Do it
, her wolf urged. She was impatient. She’d let them do it the human way. She wanted the wolf way.

Kaya strode to the far side of the room so that Sy would follow the sway of her ass with his eyes. In a clear space on the floor, she kneeled down before lowering herself to all fours. She wiggled her ass in the air. To prod him even further, she said, “Hurry up before I change my mind.”

Sy growled. A few seconds later, she felt his heat behind her and without a word he thrust into her.

Kaya moaned as he started his rough assault all over again. Sylas Murray definitely owned her pussy, and she loved every hard, long stroke of it.

Chapter Nineteen

Three hours later, Sylas was once again dressed in his “I Heart Wolves” t-shirt, his arm around his mate-to-be as they walked through the forest to where the dual clan celebration was being held. Kaya had tried to convince him to change, but he’d said no. He didn’t want there to be any doubt of where his heart belonged.

Of course, looking over at his sexy wolf, he wished they could both be naked again. She was wearing a dark blue dress that hugged her breasts before flaring out, the skirt stopping just above her knee. His cougar wanted her to cover up those gorgeous legs from the other males, but Sy told his cat to settle down. She was theirs.

And they would make it official this evening.

But Sy was getting ahead of himself. They were going to meet with his brother and his mate first. The consensus had been to let the gathering start without the clan leaders. Not that they were letting it be a free-for-all; the seconds from each clan were keeping an eye on things in case they turned south. Especially since alcohol was being provided.

They were nearly to the meeting point. Since they were early, Sy hugged Kaya close to his side and kissed the top of her head. “Are you sure we can’t disappear into the woods for half an hour? I’m sure your wolf would like it if I took you out in the open.”

Kaya looked up at him with a slight frown on her face. “You might’ve forgotten, but my lady parts are out of practice and need a little time to recover. As it is, I think I’m going to have bruises along my back, not to mention the scratches on the side of my hips.”

He squeezed her hip, careful to avoid where she was tender from his claws earlier. “Hey, you can’t blame me. I just gave my lady what she wanted. Next time, I can be all delicate and barely touch you if that’ll make you happier.”

She full-on frowned. “Do that and I’ll leave your ass for another male.”

He growled, pulled them to a stop and brought Kaya flush against his front. “Never.”

She started to pet his chest with long, slow strokes. “Calm down, kitty cat. I was just teasing.”

He gave her a quick kiss before letting her go so they could start walking again. “Come on, let’s keep going. My sister-in-law is going to be smug as hell, and I want to get it over with as soon as possible.”

~~~

Kaya didn’t hold back her grin at that. She was looking forward to meeting face-to-face with Trinity and Kian when her clan wasn’t on the brink of collapse.

She leaned into Sy’s side and wish she could just disappear into the woods with her cougar. Despite her earlier protests, she could take more sex, a lot more.

But this was one of those times when being clan leader meant putting your own needs second. Ensuring the truce not only continued with DarkStalker, but strengthened, was necessary for her clan’s survival.

Besides, she owed Kian and his cougars the life of her clan. This was just the first step in repaying that debt.

They reached the clearing with a high rock formation to one side. It was near the border between DarkStalker’s and GreyFire’s land, the same place where Sy had cheated eleven years ago to get her naked under the stars. In that second, she realized that neither one of them had actually touched the rock all those years ago.

Let’s win
, her wolf urged, and Kaya agreed.

Before Sy could get the same idea, Kaya broke free of his arm and raced to the rock. She slapped her hand against the cool, smooth surface and grinned at her cougar-shifter. “I win.”

He frowned. “Since when was there a competition?”

She pointed a finger at him. “Technically, neither of us won that night you told me you loved me for the first time. You never touched the rock. You only tackled me to the ground. It may have taken eleven years to complete, but I just won our game.”

Sy studied her for a second and then gave her a heated a look as he stalked to her. When he was directly in front of her, he caged her body with his arms against the rock behind her. “And what do you want to claim as your prize, Kaya-love?”

It was hard to think of anything as his heat and scent surrounded her, but then she remembered his brother should be here any minute. She wasn’t a prude, but she’d rather not have her soon to be brother-in-law catch her in the act of having sex with Sylas.

She may not be able to get her male naked right now, but she needed to touch him. She placed her hands on Sy’s chest and started to stroke, wishing it was the hair of his chest under her fingers instead of his t-shirt. She looked up to meet his eyes. There was only one thing she wanted, so she simply said, “I want you.”

He leaned down to nuzzle her cheek. “You already have me, love. Try again.”

She ran her hands up his chest and then to the back of his neck. There was one other thing this strong, sexy male could give her.

She whispered into his ear and said, “Once everything is settled down and GreyFire is back to normal, you can try giving me some pups.”

He dropped his hands and hauled her body up against his. She squeaked in surprise, but Sy paid no attention as he whispered, “Maybe a cub and a pup. I’m already outnumbered and I need some support of the feline variety to remain sane.”

She smiled. The image of a little cougar cub and a wolf pup chasing each other around her and Sylas came into her head and a deep yearning rushed forth. She’d never thought much of having children before, but she’d love nothing more if it was with the man currently holding her close. True, they might turn out to be the most stubborn shifter children on the planet, but she had a feeling they could handle them.

Wanting to tease him again, she cupped his face and moved his head so she could look into his eyes. “Well, I think whether we have pups or cubs depends on whose DNA is more dominant and stubborn. Personally, I’m betting on mine.”

Sy laughed before he took her mouth in a demanding kiss. Kaya was so lost in his taste and the feel of him that she nearly jumped when she heard a female voice say, “Hello, lovebirds. Care to make yourself decent?”

Sy, on the other hand, took his time to finish caressing the inside of her mouth before pulling away and turning them both around to face Kian and Trinity.

Trinity was grinning while Kian looked amused. They both walked toward them, Kian limping a little due to his old injury.

Not that she held that against him. The man might be smiling, but there was an aura of power around him. Her wolf wasn’t about to cower, but it recognized an equal when she saw one.

Of course, when Trinity leaned against her mate, he softened and her wolf approved.

Kaya tried to move to greet their guests, but Sy kept his arm around her waist. She pinched his arm and said, “Let me go.” His grip tightened. She sighed and said, “Look, I know your cougar is tetchy right now, until the mating ceremony finishes, but it’s your brother. I hardly think Trinity is going to allow him to rip off my clothes or attack me.”

~~~

Sy ignored Kaya’s pinch and squeezed her closer. The human part of him understood her reasoning, but his cougar didn’t. Until everyone knew she was their female, they needed to keep her close.

Calm down, kitty cat.
His inner cougar growled at that, but his jealousy eased a fraction. Still, Sy wasn’t about to take chances. “He’s still another male. My cat doesn’t like that.”

“Sylas.” He looked up at his brother’s authoritative tone and Kian continued. “Take some advice from me, brother. Learn to let her go every once in a while or there’ll be hell to pay later.”

Trinity glared in her mate’s direction. “Care to explain that one, mister?”

Kian shrugged. “Whenever I act too overprotective, you withhold sex. I’m trying to save my brother some heartache. Strong women take a special kind of touch.” Kian nuzzled the side of Trin’s head. “And I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Trinity battled a frown, but Sy could tell his sister-in-law was softening. Then she looked to Kaya and he knew she was about to cause trouble. Trin said, “If it weren’t for the mating ceremony, I’d suggest that we ditch these two alphas and let them stew a bit.”

Sy looked down to see Kaya grinning. Yes, Trinity Perez-Murray was going to be a bad influence on his soon-to-be mate.

His wolf-shifter said, “Next time. If Kian is anything like his brother, I’m sure there’ll be plenty of opportunities for us to let them stew.”
