He did, slowly allowing his fingers to linger on her back. He planted kisses along her shoulders and she moaned lustfully.
His hands reached round to cup her breasts. “We can’t...” She whined helplessly.
He nibbled her ear. “I’ll be quiet...”
“Ha! Yeah right!”
He slowly unzipped her dress. “Fear of getting caught makes it even more intense.”
She chuckled. “I think if it were any more intense my heart might actually stop.”
Pushing his erection against her ass he groaned. “I wouldn’t allow that... I know CPR.”
Rosalee snorted. “Wow that’s so romantic.”
“I can hear everything Alpha.” Yelled Charlie none too delicately.
Adam growled lowly and moved away from his mate, irritably rearranging the bulge in his pants. “How about we pay for these and hurry back to my place?”
Rosalee bit her lip, Adam felt himself dangerously close to exploding. “I just can’t decide between these dresses... which one do you think?”
His wolf was dancing up and down impatiently for their mate. “All of them.”
“Isn’t that a bit...”
Adam took the dresses out of her hands and swooped up the pile of clothes she had already decided she wanted. “All of them sweetheart, it’s best you have a lot of spare clothes, just in case I decide to rip them off you.” He winked at her and strode out of the changing room.
“You won’t be doing that in public right? Right?!”
The only answer she got was a bellow of laughter. That was no answer at all.

Adam ensconced his mate into the passenger side of his truck, eager to get her back home and into his bed.
His phone chirruped. Adam stared at it in frustration. Would it really hurt to send it to voicemail? The ringing stopped and then quickly started again. Deciding they weren’t going away he roughly answered.
It was Alec.
“Someone broke into the Bennett house again.” Alec said shortly.
“Who? When?” Barked Adam seething with rage.
“About half an hour ago, Gabe was watching the house but didn’t see anything ‘til the guy was already in the woods. I got Don to the house, he found a scent, and we got the guy. We’re taking him to the station now.”
“I’ll drop Rose off and meet you there.”
Adam clicked the phone off and sighed, a mixture of relief and annoyance. He pulled open the door to his truck and hopped in slamming the door behind him.
“What’s up with you?”
Adam gripped the steering wheel tightly. “Alec caught the guy breaking into your house.”
Rosalee’s eyes widened. “Well that’s great right?”
He looked at her and softened. “It is, it just means I have to go deal with them now.” And it also meant he didn’t have an excuse to keep her at his house anymore.
She scooted over the seat and kissed his jaw. “Well the sooner you get there the sooner we can get back to what we started in the store...” She cooed at him as her fingers traced patterns on his shirt.
“Well when you put it like that...”

Rosalee hummed as she walked through her house. She looked around, somewhat at a loss.
She’d made up her mind that she was going to sell the land to her sexy Alpha. Not that she had told him that, she thought it best to leave him to stew for a few more days or perhaps even weeks. She smiled wickedly at the thought.
If what he said was true in that he wanted to get rid of the house there honestly didn’t seem much point in making it more habitable. If it is just going to be bulldozed who cares that the wallpaper is peeling?
Rosalee smiled thinking of the money she would get. She’d never been particularly greedy about money, in general she just scraped by. When she had to she ate noodles for dinner, bought second hand clothes, crashed on friend’s couches. She didn’t need a lot of luxury.
It was nice to think that she wouldn’t have to work at a temp agency for a while, photocopying and filing while fending off the unwanted advances of corporate buttholes wasn’t exactly her idea of fun. She could devote her time to painting for a while. She could go anywhere she wanted... Or she could just stay in Rose...
She chewed her lip thinking of Adam. The last few days spent with him had been the happiest of her life, and she had to agree with Liv, Rose was a beautiful little town. If she truly looked she had no doubt she could find some sights worth painting. Not to mention a few subjects. She still needed to paint the Alpha in his wolf form...
If she did stay, if they did bond, she could probably persuade the Alpha to leave Rose for a holiday now and then. Who knows? It might be good for him to get of town and see the bigger world. Not that Adam wasn’t already pretty worldly, but a wider perspective of what lay outside Rose couldn’t hurt.
