Chapter
Five

She looked down to glimpse her
erect nipples through her cerise colored t-shirt, and although her black sports
bra did nothing to accentuate her beautifully shaped breasts, it did offer Mia
some much needed support.

The sports bra was a terrific
invention for a busy girl on the go. Plunge and underwire lingerie was fine,
but realistically, they were designed to show off your ample breasts to their
best. In the wilderness, the only attention she might attract would be that of
a wild animal.

At the moment though, Mia
wished she’d chosen style over comfort and dressed in a more flattering
lingerie set.

She saw Ethan gazing at her
breasts through the tight cerise t-shirt and smiled to herself, if he thought
they looked good in a sports bra then he was easy to satisfy. She took the
upper hand now as she stretched her elegantly slender neck up and kissed his
lips softly, Ethan moaned quietly.

Mia pressed her lips against
his harder and slid her moist inquisitive tongue between his slightly parted
lips. She could hear his fast erratic breathing in her ear and noticed the
ragged heavy sigh that escaped his lips as her tongue plunged into the wet
depths of his mouth.

Her own breathing sounded like
short, sharp gasps of air being sucked into her lungs as though she’d no time
to think about the simple art of breathing.

His hands went around her neck
as she placed hers around the bunching muscles of his shoulders; she pushed her
breasts against his warm hard chest. Mia was almost panting now as her sexual
arousal grew between her silky thighs and her wetness craved his touch.

Ethan groaned as she pushed
against him and kissed her deeper making Mia shudder and gasp for air in short
sharp intakes.

She pulled at his t-shirt in an
impatient manner hoping he’d notice her rather large hint, which he did as he
raised his arms above his head as she lifted the infuriating piece of clothing
from his body.

His skin was amazingly smooth
and his chest adorned with just a few wispy hairs. His dark brown nipples were
big but not too big, and his stunningly sexy six-pack was enough to make her
gasp when she looked at him. He was the quintessential downright perfect guy.

The one flaw that you could say
was a major one really was the bear shifter part of his character, but as of
yet to Mia, it wasn’t presenting itself as a massive issue.

She felt him tugging at her
tight t-shirt and cringed inwardly at the thought of the undesirable bra
lurking underneath it awaiting his scrutinizing inspection. Too late to worry
about it now as the t-shirt was being raised up quickly.

“Excuse the unattractive
lingerie,” she whispered feeling that she must make an excuse for her poor show
of sexiness. She heard him sucking in air through his teeth and noticed his
breathing had become quick and shallow.

“I’m more interested in what’s
inside the bra to be honest Mia,” she heard him whispering in her ear.

She smiled at his comment and
relaxed as he lifted her t-shirt off over her head. She assisted in the removal
of her sports bra running her fingers through her short blonde hair as she
pulled the bra off.

Sitting in front of him with
her top half exposed, she felt vulnerable all of a sudden and tried to cover
her nakedness with her arms. He stopped her by pulling her arms up and around
his neck and holding her close to him. As her achingly swollen pert breasts
pressed against the solid wall of muscle that was actually his hard chest, Mia
sighed softly.

She felt his hands gliding up
and down her smooth back as he kissed the contours of her shoulders and neck
gently, his teeth lightly nibbled at her skin and she sighed loudly.

Ethan traced lingering kisses
from the side of her neck around to the front and began following her
satin-smooth skin down to the natural curve of her flushed aroused peaks. Her
rose-colored tips were rigid and throbbing, craving his lips to be wrapped
lovingly around them.

As if he read her thoughts, he
continued on his downward journey until his mouth reached its intended
destination and claimed one of her hardened nipples. Mia cried out with
uninhibited passion as Ethan’s teeth nibbled and his soft mouth suckled at her
sensitive peak.

As he gave his undivided
attention to her throbbing points, she pushed herself into his mouth and pushed
against his naked shoulder, forcing him to sit back against the couch.

Mia placed a leg astride his
hard body and he didn’t release his grip on her nipple once.

Even with their combined
clothing of her ski pants and his jeans, she could still feel his hard arousal
pressing between her opened legs.

Mia started to rub herself up
and down along his erection and Ethan groaned loudly removing her nipple from
his mouth now and reaching up to unzip her pants. She helped him by climbing
off from his body and standing in front of him. He smiled as his green eyes
gazed up on her half naked body.

She slowly began wriggling her
sexy hips and shaking her ski pants off her smooth toned legs revealing her
peach short panties. Mia wasn’t going to apologize on her lingerie’s behalf yet
again so this time she just went with the flow and chose to ignore it.

Ethan sat forward and pulled
her toward him. Mia was now wearing her peach panties and her red socks. Sexy
or not, he didn’t seem to object though and to Mia that’s all that mattered as
his lips kissed her flat tummy while his strong hands grabbed her tight ass.
She reached down and unzipped his jeans helping him to lift himself from the
couch to remove them.

His thighs were thick, strong,
and muscular leading, down to his hard bulging calf muscles. As she positioned
herself on his lap once again, she gasped softly at the feeling of his hard
erection through his thin cotton boxer shorts.

Mia slowly slid up and down
along the hard bulge underneath her wetness and heard Ethan groaning loudly as
he held on to her slim back. She sighed in his ear as she felt him pushing his
hardness up against her moistness. She reached down and began pulling her
panties off slowly only to be stopped by Ethan’s hands as they continued the
task.

She felt her panties being
pulled down her legs in an awkward style as she was still in a kneeling
position and sitting astride him. Ethan seemed to struggle with the flimsy
material but eventually managed his goal leaving Mia sitting naked apart from
her red fluffy socks.

“Your turn,” she breathed
heavily in his ear as she began tugging at his boxers.

“Okay, okay!” he laughed
grabbing her hands and replacing them with his own. She watched him underneath
her as he squirmed and writhed until she saw his feet kicking the boxer shorts
to one side.

He grabbed her slim hips as she
felt his rigid arousal resting against her delicate softness, Mia leant forward
and kissed his neck hard teasing his taut skin with her teeth.

Ethan sighed and she felt him
shuddering beneath her as she nibbled lightly at his neck with the delicious
feeling of his aching shaft sitting tantalizingly against her sweet warmth. She
purposely opened her legs slightly wider as she continued to kiss his neck and
shuddered when she felt his swollen throbbing rod entering her tight, wet
depths.

He was huge, and as he guided
her down on to him, Mia gasped as she felt him pushing up into her. She felt
his body starting to rhythmically rock underneath her.

She began riding his manhood
slowly, wanting to savor every intense feeling and every incredible pleasure.
Her ample soft breasts bounced in time with her regular movements as Ethan held
on to her slim hips, gazing up at her sweetly curved mounds with their hard
rose-colored tips.

Mia hadn’t experienced an
orgasm for a long time now and knew it’d be quick and intense. Ethan reached up
and cupped her breasts in his hands, squeezing lightly. Mia moaned loudly as
she increased her movements and began grinding herself against his warm, hard
body.

She could feel her sensitive
clitoris rubbing against him and this coupled with his hard erection pounding
her wetness succeeded in bringing her quickly to a climax. Mia experienced a
dizzying explosion of ecstasy as she reached her sweet moment of release. Her
slim body shuddered as she collapsed against Ethan and felt his arms wrapping
around her back.

He pushed up into her lifting
her body as he did so and she started to move against him once again matching
his thrusts perfectly. Their bodies joined, perfectly slotting into place with
one another like pieces from a jigsaw puzzle.

Mia accepted all he could give
her as he thrusted repeatedly upward. She screamed with pleasure as she felt
his hard shaft being buried deep within her tight, wet sheath. He held her hips
tighter and moved her up and down while she clenched and shuddered. Ethan
sucked in gasping breaths of air as he let out a loud groan of male
satisfaction.

She felt him exploding inside
her tightness and filling her with his sexual release. He continued to push up
into her urging her to orgasm again.

Mia didn’t need much
encouragement as she plunged over the edge of total ecstasy with her blue eyes
closed tightly and her soft lips slightly parted. She cried out his name as
wave after wave of sheer bliss ran through her slim body.

He held her close while her
body shuddered in completion. She giggled nervously and suddenly felt very
vulnerable and open to him.

Her cheeks grew warmer as she
felt her blush racing up her satin-smooth cheeks. Ethan cradled her head
between his hands and looked into her eyes. Mia searched his handsome face for
an indication of satisfaction.

She received her reward and the
sign she was looking for in the form of a big smile.

“Hey you,” he whispered as he
kissed her softly on her lips.

She felt his kiss everywhere
from her head to her petite toes. Her skin was on fire, tingling all over and
her pulse was racing.

Was this feeling passion and
desire, or was there love involved too?

Surely, it couldn’t be love, as
they’d not known each other long enough. But was there a rulebook? Wasn’t it
different for everyone?

Perhaps it began as desire and
turned into love. What about her story, should she still write it?

As Ethan’s lips kissed her neck
tenderly, all thoughts of anything else simply melted into the background, for
now.

Chapter
Six

After spending some
considerable time just kissing and touching one another, they made love again,
only it was different this time as Ethan was on top.

They lay on the floor in front
of the couch, and as he guided himself into her inch by inch, she moaned and
dug her fingernails into his muscled back. She wrapped her legs around him
drawing him deeper into her.

Mia arched her body to meet
every single thrust lifting her hips from the floor to envelop his hardness in
her hot, wet sheath.

With ragged gasps of breath,
she kept up with his tempo. They were evenly matched and as they climaxed
together and he spilled his hot seed inside her tightness, she cried out his
name. Her orgasm was just as intense as the first one and she shuddered as that
final moment of release claimed her slim body.

He raised himself up gently
pulling himself from her and grabbing the blanket on the couch that she’d been
wrapped in earlier. They snuggled up together underneath it and she drifted off
to sleep in his arms, feeling safe and contented.

The warm sun on Mia’s face woke
her up and as she opened her eyes, she saw Ethan kneeling down beside her
dressed in only his boxers and t-shirt with his short brown hair ruffled. He
smiled as he saw her eyes opening and presented her with a hot steaming mug of
coffee.

“Morning sleepyhead!” he smiled
down at her. Mia rubbed her eyes and took the hot drink from him, enjoying the
comforting warmth radiating from the mug on to her cold hands.

“What time is it?” she asked.

“Nearly 10am, you slept right
through Mia,” he kissed her nose as he spoke.

“Shit, nearly 10am. Oh fuck, I
was meant to call my mom at 9am. She’ll be panicking Ethan.”

“No signal up here Mia. We’re
in the mountains. You can’t call from here; all calls have to be made from the
hotel or in that area. This is why I alternate between staying here and down
there,” he explained.

“Will I be able to call my mom
soon?”

“You can call her whenever you
wish Mia. I’ll drive you down to the hotel. You’re not imprisoned here.”

“I could do with grabbing some
more clothes as I left in a hurry,” she smiled rolling her eyes at him.

He grinned as he reached a hand
down to help her up. Ethan helped her dress and they ate breakfast together,
and as she stacked their dishes, he reached a hand across the table.

“What will you do about your
story?” he asked as he held her hand tightly.

She stopped what she was doing
with the breakfast dishes and looked into his green eyes.

“I won’t write it Ethan. How
could I possibly now?” she answered truly, wanting to believe the words she’d
just spoken were the truth.

Mia was a reporter at heart. A
good story was high on her priority list, but then again so was being happy.

She was torn between the two
because as easy as she thought it was to turn her back on her career, she knew
deep down it wouldn’t be plain sailing. You didn’t simply stop being a
reporter; it didn’t happen.

Her feelings had jumped right
in the way of her story. She didn’t know how to handle the situation; she knew
Colin would tell her not to be so foolish and to carry on with the story. That
was probably the reason why he’d remained single for so many years. Her mom
would tell her to follow her heart and to hell with the consequences.

Mia needed to do what was right
for her but not only that, what was right for Ethan too.

Bear shifters were becoming a
rare breed throughout Whistler; she knew this to be true.

“Are you the last one of your
kind?” she asked suddenly as her free hand fiddled nervously with a spoon.

He laughed and squeezed her
other hand, “We’re not like Indians or anything Mia. There are many of us
around but yes, I’m one of the only ones in this specific region of Canada.”

“A rarity then?” she smiled as
she dropped the spoon and placed her hand gently on his face.

He nuzzled her hand and
whispered, “Yes, I guess I am Mia.”

A rush of cold air hit their
legs as the cabin door flew open. A red haired girl stood in the doorway
staring at them both.

“Ethan what the fuck? Where
have you been?” she cried at Ethan as Mia just stared down at the table and
Ethan released her hand.

“Maggie!” he snapped.

“I’ve been looking everywhere
for you. I was worried. Who’s this?” Maggie said nodding toward Mia.

“Mia,” said Mia quietly.

“Mia who? Is she with you
Ethan?”

Ethan looked uncomfortable as
he replied, “Yes, Mia’s with me.”

Maggie looked furious with
Ethan’s answer as she glared at Mia and moved quickly toward her at the table.

“Maggie back off. Nobody hurts
Mia, nobody, you understand me?”

Maggie looked scared and
cowered away from Ethan. He really was an alpha, in command. Mia was relieved
to have him on her side.

“The others need to know,”
Maggie snapped.

“Others?” Mia asked thinking
back to how Ethan had told her he was one of the only ones left.

“Does Mia know what you are?”
asked Maggie.

“Yes and I can speak for
myself,” Mia said.

“I think you better go now
Maggie. Leave now,” Ethan shouted as Mia watched him pushing Maggie toward the
door.

“Bye Mia honey!” Maggie called
as she left and went into the snowy wilderness outside.

“What was all that about?” Mia
asked Ethan when they were alone again.

“Maggie’s my sister another
bear shifter like myself. I never told you about her to protect our family Mia,
and I never told her what you are to protect you.”

Mia stood up and hugged him as
he walked back toward the table after showing Maggie out.

“Ethan the protector!” she
whispered.

“ That’s me. Come on we better
get you to the hotel for supplies.”

They headed out to Ethan’s
vehicle and drove in silence to the hotel. Mia was amazed by how far away his
cabin was from the hotel.

“You carried me all this way?”
she asked as they pulled into the hotel’s car park.

“Mia, you still haven’t got the
hang of the whole bear shifter thing have you?” Ethan asked as he unclipped his
seatbelt and turned to look at her.

“Apparently not, no!” she
replied as she looked into his green eyes.

“My strength is far superior
due to being a bear, as is my speed Mia. I’m not exactly a normal, regular
human being.”

She reached out and laid the
palm of her hand against his smooth face as she whispered, “No I’m starting to
get that much now.”

He leaned across and kissed her
lips softly, making her entire being shudder. They left the vehicle and he
followed her up to her room. Once inside, she began packing up her things,
although most of it was still in her bag anyway. “Hey I’ll be back in a minute.
I’ll give you chance to call your mom,” Ethan said as he kissed her tenderly on
the cheek before leaving the room.

Mia was happy for the first
time since her dad had gone. She felt relaxed and comfortable with a guy. So,
okay, he wasn’t your ordinary type of guy but she already knew she felt a lot
for him. He’d protect her and keep her from harm.

She phoned her mom and then
Colin.

“Yes, I understand Colin. I’ll
get the story to you as soon as possible and thank you,” Mia said quietly, and
as she ended the call, Ethan walked in the door.

“Colin? Your boss I take it?”
he asked as he walked toward her and sat on the bed next to her.

“Yes,” she replied feeling a
little awkward by what he’d overheard.

“So you’re still doing a story?
Really, I mean nothing to you Mia?”

Mia smiled shyly and turned to
face him, “That’s the whole problem Ethan. I care too much about you. My
story’s about you and Maggie.”

“I trusted you Mia,” he cried
as he stood up quickly and raced to the door.

“Ethan, for fuck’s sake, listen
to me,” she called after him standing up beside the bed.

He stopped and turned around,
“Fine. I’m listening, carry on.”

“The story’s about how you
helped Maggie, your sister, by buying her the cabin. She fell on hard times and
you, being the billionaire big brother, stepped in to help her. You’re not a
shifter but rather a shy reclusive guy who didn’t wish to be disturbed.
Maggie’s husband cheated on her. She needed to rebuild her life, you’ve helped
her,” this was the story she’d concocted for Colin and he loved it.

Ethan fell silent and then
muttered, “Colin fell for this story?”

Mia nodded her head slowly
while Ethan ran across to her and swept her up in his arms kissing her mouth
gently.

Life with a bear shifter
billionaire would certainly be different but it was a difference Mia was
prepared to cope with. She didn’t need to report on everyone else’s life
anymore.

She’d simply report on her own
life with Ethan to her mom back home.

THE END
