“Nothing between us, Victoria.”
I’m going to have sex. I’m going to have sex.
She felt giddy at the thought of finally giving herself to a man whom she wanted more than anything. Scorch was sex on legs, and the longer she was away from Chain, the happier she was starting to feel. He didn’t control her in what she gave to Scorch. This was about her, no one else.
He tore the shirt over her head leaving her exposed. Next, the panties were taken until they were both naked. Scorch picked up her feet and started to caress the soles of her feet and up to her toes.
At first she started to giggle and then moan as the pleasure swamped her. Chain disappeared from her thoughts. In that moment Victoria felt like she and Scorch were the only two people on the planet. He stared into her eyes, capturing her with his gaze. Up her leg he went, massaging her calf then up her thigh. His touch was so close to her pussy, but he released her before he touched her. Moaning, she watched him hold onto her second foot repeating the massage all the way up her leg.
“You’re very impatient, Tori. We barely know each other,” Scorch said. He flipped her over so she lay on her front.
“We’re wolves. We’re not known for taking things slowly.”
“Give me an example.” His hands landed on the base of her back. She groaned as his thumbs were sheer heaven against the muscles. Victoria hadn’t been touched like this at all. Everything he did ignited a fire within her body.
“My parents were married within the month of meeting each other. Once they saw each other, they knew what their future would hold.” Thinking about her parents made her ache deep in her heart. She wouldn’t see the love blooming between them again.
“It was the same for my folks,” he said, rubbing circles up and down her back. Scorch took his time making her melt with every touch of his fingers.
All women should have a man like Scorch who was prepared to rub down their body. His penis lay on her ass. The hard length hadn’t diminished at all as he took the time with her body. She felt like a queen from his caresses alone.
“The moment my dad saw my mom, they were mated the same day. Within a week they were married. Our kind doesn’t take long to get what it wants, does it?” he asked, kissing her neck.
She whimpered, wanting so much more than a kiss to her neck. “You’re torturing me on purpose.”
“I’m not going to fuck you today, baby,” he said, catching her unaware. He whispered the words against her ear.
“What? Why?” she asked.
“Our parents moved fast because they knew what their future was together. I know what I want, Tori. You’re not ready. Until you’re ready to face the truth, we’ll have this, nothing else.”
The desire to scream, kick, and fight him at the unfairness of his decision was strong. She glanced behind her, staring at the cool, calm depths of his blue eyes and knew he was doing the right thing.
“You’re not playing fair.”
“Baby, I’m a good alpha. I never hurt any of my pack. Their protection is my primary concern, but never for a second think I play fair when I want something badly.” His hand stroked down her front. Even with him on top he made easy work to touch her. He cupped her pussy, sliding a finger through her slit. “This is going to be more than a quick fuck. Don’t worry, Tori, I can wait for you to admit the truth. I’ve got the patience of a saint.”
He kissed her temple, removing his hand from between her thighs at the same time. She smelled the intenseness of her arousal on his digits. Glancing behind her she watched him suck his fingers clean of her cream.
“You taste so good. We won’t be fucking, but we will be doing a hell of a lot more than that.”

Victoria had finally spoken up about her parents. They’d been killed. He knew they had from the way she spoke of them. The love couldn’t be disguised as anything other than love. He would get to the bottom of what happened to her if it was the last thing he did as alpha. All of the pack considered her one of their own. None of them knew the full extent of what she meant to him.
Last night, holding her in his arms, Scorch had known the truth of what had happened between them. They were a destined mated pair. His wolf had calmed down the instant they were close. The words of mating, claiming, and taking made more sense. He’d never found a woman he wanted more than the beautiful, red-headed Victoria. She sent his blood aflame with her presence alone.
He recalled a conversation with his father many moons ago asking about mates and knowing when the right one would come along. At the time his father had been cryptic, but Scorch finally knew the truth. When he found the one woman destined to be his, he’d know. He would feel it in his body and in the way his wolf responded to her.
