Nate sat in the tub filled with warm water and Karla’s lavender scented bubble bath. He’d tried to explain he was fine. That she didn’t need to worry about him or the minor wounds he was sporting. He was used to it and after a couple of shifts, they’d be gone. But she hadn’t listened. She’d gone out of her way to set up a bath for him, claiming it would help his aching muscles. Her change in attitude had knocked him off kilter. She’d fully embraced him. Them. It was like she’d broken down the wall that had been there before, and he could see the rest of her finally. And he loved what he saw.
“Need more bubble bath?” She poked her head in from the bathroom entrance.
His heart felt lighter at the smile she gave him. It was no longer wary or filled with insecurity. It was pure joy.
“No. But I could do with you joining me.” He winked.
She shook her head, long dark curls bouncing around the curve of her breasts. “Nu-uh. You’re hurt. You need to rest and relax and—”
“And if you come in here with me, I’ll feel better sooner.” He used the wash cloth she’d given him and slowly slid it down his torso, watching her eyes latch on to the movement. The scent of her arousal filled the room, and he knew he had her. “I need help reaching some spots.”
She gulped, her gaze riveted on the bubbles covering his nipple. “Help?”
“I promise I’ll behave.” He almost choked saying that. Behave? Not if he could get her in there naked.
She licked her lips, need flared bright in her eyes. “Okay.”
His cock turned rock hard watching her shrug out of her clothes. Her curves were more voluptuous with pregnancy. Her breasts larger, her hips wider and the small flare of her belly only added to the beauty that was his mate.
He’d yet to bite her. And it was time.
Though Karla’s house wasn’t large, she’d mentioned having the bathroom redone to be bigger and fit a massive soaking tub inside. She said she liked bubble baths. He was glad she had. Now he could do more than just sit in the tub alone.
He held her hand and helped her sit between his legs, her ass cushioning his cock. His arms went around her torso, instantly grabbing on to her breasts.
“Nate…” she said breathily.
“Um?” He kissed the side of her neck, enjoying her move to display more of it for his access. Pure submission.
“You’re….oh!” She gasped when he squeezed her nipples.
He knew her nipples were sensitive and loved her body’s responses to his touches.
“Nate…oh, God!” She thrust her breast out into his palms, the large mounds overflowing in his hands from their new size.
He licked circles around the curve of her shoulder, grazing his teeth until she moaned louder.
“I want you,” he murmured over her baby smooth skin, nuzzling his lips and nose over her shoulder, inhaling her scent so deep his wolf reveled in how close she was to them. The beast and the man loved the new combination of him, her and their babies.
“I always want you, Nate.” She moaned, lifting her hand into his hair and clutching the wet strands. “Jordan was right.”
A gentle kiss and she whimpered. Flicking his thumbs on her nipples got him a raw cry. “What’s she right about, love?”
“I am easy when it comes to you,” she murmured.
“No, babe. You’re not easy. You’re mine.”
He shifted in the tub, glad for the extra space he could use to his advantage. He patted a corner where she’d put a towel for him. “Sit up here for me.”
With a turn and a lift, he helped her sit on glossy tile. She sat on a foot wide space, with her legs spread wide and lifted to rest on the curve of the tub.
He moved in, kissing her knee and running his tongue up her thigh. Her breathing turned ragged, drawing him with each harsh gasp.
“Nate…”
He met her gaze. Loved how bright her eyes were with need. “I love your scent.” He watched her swipe her wet pink tongue over her full lips. “I love your taste. It’s the sexiest fucking thing I’ve ever come across.”
She moaned and shut her eyes, digging her nails into his scalp, knees tense at his sides. “Please…I don’t know how long I can last.”
“This,” he watched her body jerk at the flutter of his finger over her swollen pink clit, “is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen.”
“Oh my…”
The perfume of her arousal filled the large space, wrapping around his cock and making him ache to be inside her. Claiming her. “Pretty. So pink. And I can’t wait to fuck you.”
He licked at her exposed nerve bundle, gripping her thighs open and inhaling more of her addictive fragrance. A deep shudder racked her, tensing her thighs and making her whimper.
