Enticing Their Mate(42)

“You couldn’t keep me away.”

From the way his smile dimpled his cheeks and his eyes lightened, he appeared interested in something other than getting clean. She wagged a finger at him. “Behave.”

“Don’t I always?”

Sarah laughed and hurried into the water while Jay undressed. If she’d helped take off his clothes, she might never have made it to the eight-foot high falls. Barefoot, she carefully walked across the smooth rocks, scooped up the rushing water in her hands, and splashed it on her face. Brrr. That was colder than she’d anticipated.

“How is it?” he asked.

“Wonderful.” At the moment his cock was pointing upward, but she bet that condition would change as soon as he stepped in with her.

Naked, Jay moved behind her and wove his hands between her arms and her body. He wet them and then plastered his palms on her chest. Whoa. Her nipples stood up straight.

He plucked the hardened crests and then continued to play with her breasts, igniting her passions. “I do love these,” he whispered against her cheek.

She twisted in his arms. “No playing until I’m clean.”

Jay saluted, stepped under the heavy flow, and washed, whistling some cheerful ditty, not seemingly affected by the temperature a bit.

“Come on in.” Jay held out his hand. As soon as she took hold, his tug propelled her under the freezing stream. Yikes. “I’ll rub your body to keep you warm.” He chuckled, acting as if he’d bested her.

“Be my guest.” She lifted her arms.

His cold hands started under her arms, traveled across her chest and then landed between her legs, ticking her when she least expected it. She was laughing too hard to stop him until he slipped a finger into her hot sex. She sobered and clamped down on him to keep him there.

“You ready to get out?” he asked.

He wanted to stop now after he’d heated her up? She wouldn’t let on how much he’d turned her on. “Not yet.”

His eyes lightened as his scruff darkened. The roar of the water disappeared as lust consumed her. She couldn’t stay there forever, nor did she want to, but another minute with Jay would be nice. Besides, she had other activities on her mind. Sarah ran her hands over his muscled chest and down his corded abs. Nice.

He grabbed her wrists. “No fair. It’s too rocky for the type of activity I have in mind.”

Yes!

As she took her first steps across the slippery rocks, Jay swept her up in his arms. She might have been self-conscious about being naked in the open had the trees surrounding them not blocked the view of the trail. Furthermore, werewolves had an amazing sense of hearing, and she was confident he’d let her know if anyone was near—especially another shifter.

He set her down. “Stay right here.” His voice came out low and dripped with promise. Jay snatched her clothes and spread them on a low-lying branch. Aw. That was so considerate of him. He then picked up his clothes and placed his pants on the ground in front of her. “Stand on this.”

She didn’t want to ruin his jeans, but her body couldn’t help but obey his command. It was as if he’d somehow drugged her and had taken over her mind.

Jay then slipped his shirt over her shoulders, perhaps because he thought she was cold. “I can’t stay away from you.”

She couldn’t keep from touching him either. As his hands slid around her waist, his lips descended. While she’d loved being with Riley and Jay together, having this wonderful man to herself was equally alluring. She wanted to stop and tell him that making love in the open where anyone could happen upon them was crazy dangerous, but she couldn’t, not with the way his mouth was possessing her.

Needing him closer, Sarah wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her chest against his. His heat seeped into her, and it seemed as if his cock had found its purpose again. Jay’s hands trailed down her back, rubbing and kneading all her sore spots. When his fingers reached her rear, for that split second, she wished Riley had been there.

“I want you,” Jay said after breaking the kiss.

“Me, too. Want you, that is.” The man clouded her mind, making words difficult to form.

Nipping at her lip, his eyes were so close it was as if she could see right down to his soul. Jay was a wonderful man and one who knew exactly where to touch to make her beg for more.

“Wrap your legs around me,” he said lifting her up.

She didn’t hesitate. He pressed her back against the tree for support and only then did she understand why he’d placed his shirt on her shoulders. That one action made her lose another bit of her soul. She didn’t want to feel this much for him, but she couldn’t help it. Perhaps it was all the tension of what might happen between them and to the women that had her more emotional than usual, but right now she wanted to push everything aside and get lost in Jay.
