Chapter One
Five minutes. Kiara Cruz glanced at her watch again. Dear God let her survive those minutes
before Royce showed up. Royce, the wolf shifter. The man who was totally out of her league on so
many different levels she couldn t even count. She needed a new dose of her heat suppressant, or
she d start meowing like a& well, exactly like what she was a damn cat in heat. It was bad enough
to be in heat, but working among humans meant not all of them knew about her shifter status.
Thankfully, her bosses did, and they were very accommodating.
She washed her face in the bathroom sink with cool water, dissipating some of the anxiety
with the cold liquid. That would have to do until she got home. With a deep breath, she headed back
to her desk to wait out the last interminable minutes.
Four minutes.
She urged the clock forward like a kid in school at the end of the day. She needed to go before
Royce showed up.
Three minutes.
So close. Steph, her friend and co-worker, would arrive soon to have a cup of coffee with her
before her shift started.
Two minutes.
Yes! She was going to make it.
Ding.
Shit! She had her finger over the shutdown button on her PC when an instant message popped
up on the screen.
Can you bring us the contracts we need to sign?
She stared at the screen. Then turned to her right and saw the manila folder she was supposed
to have delivered to her bosses over an hour ago. She groaned a curse. In her obsession with leaving
without running into the third partner of the company, she d forgotten to bring in the contracts for
signature. Great. Now she was late. Manila folder in hand, she stepped into her bosses office with a
smile.
 Sorry about 
She stopped dead in her tracks. Royce sat across from both Bryan and Brent at a round
meeting table.
 It s okay. Bryan smiled that dimpled smile that made her all kinds of stumped.  You look
tired. Go home and relax. We ve had you running around all day.
Right. She had to move. But she couldn t. Instead, she stood there, staring at Royce s serious
face. His blue eyes held her rooted to the spot. Her feline took that moment to rub under her skin. A
soft purr worked the back of her throat.
Heat crowded her cheeks, and she coughed, clearing her throat to cover it up. She rushed
toward Brent and passed him the folder. Not even slowing her step, she hauled ass to the office door,
but was stopped by Brent s voice.
 Don t forget to leave those employee files on your desk for us. We ll grab them later.
Employee files? Against her better judgment, she turned to face the three men again, forcing
herself to stare at Brent and not at the sexy man next to him.
 Files?
Brent s eyes widened. Probably because she d never had to ask him about something she was
supposed to do. But her hormones were all over the place, and she needed to go home and purr and
meow without any witnesses to her misery.
 The ones of employees under probation. You were going to pull the list and then bring us the
files with the report.
Ah hell. She d gotten so caught up in a different project she d forgotten.
 Okay, no problem. She turned to leave again.
 Kiara, wait, Bryan called out.  This is for you. He held out a pumpkin colored envelope
toward her.  We hope to see you there Friday night.
She smiled and excused herself to get back to her desk. Exhaling loudly, she sat down to do
the extra work she d forgotten about. Because being a cat in heat and being attracted to a wolf was
normal apparently. And now she still had to do mundane tasks while holding back the urge to purr.
Great. Just. Great.
* * *
 Are you sure? Bryan asked, bringing his attention back to the meeting.
Fuck. Just smelling the sweet scent of her heat pushed his wolf toward his skin. The beast
wanted free.
To lick. To taste. To fuck. To mate.
 I m very sure. He struggled to get the words past his dry throat. Kiara s curvy body and
beckoning heat had made it nearly impossible to think. All he wanted was to feel.
Bryan and Brent, his childhood friends and partners stared at him with confusion. They
couldn t understand what being a shifter meant. They were fully human and without the urges of his
kind.
 She s the one. Mine. The animal inside tugged at the leash, ready to pounce on the
voluptuous beauty.
 You ve spoken a handful of words to her, Brent said, his voice filled with disbelief.
 I know that. He glanced from Brent to Bryan.  But attraction and her scent don t lie. She
wants me. Her cat wants me, and I want her.
 But 
 Save it. He raised a hand.  You two want Stephanie and you both know it s a lot more than
plain lust.
The pair flushed.  Yes, we want her, but we know it s a probability she won t go for the two
of us.
He inhaled, still taking in the sweet scent of Kiara s aroused tigress and her own human
arousal. The combination was addictive.
 Do you really think Kiara will show up? Bryan asked.
 I told Stephanie I m not coming. Kiara will feel more comfortable to show up if she thinks
that.
 And you really think she ll just fall at your feet? Brent snorted.  If I know one thing about
Kiara, she s not falling at anybody s feet no matter who they are.
 Yeah, I don t see that happening. Bryan agreed.
 I may have to do a little hunting, but the fact remains, that on Halloween night, I m claiming
her.
 Wait. Does this mean we re going to have to get a new assistant? Brent accused.
Royce grinned. As far as he was concerned, the moment he got his hands on Kiara s body, she
wasn t getting away from him. With the full moon and her in heat, he d keep her in bed for days. Long
pleasure-filled days.
 Yeah, you ll need to find someone else. At least until her heat passes.
 Dammit, Royce. She s the best we have! Bryan complained.  All our other assistants turn
into idiots when they take one look at us.
Royce chuckled.  Hey, it s not my fault they go brain-dead at the sight of two pretty boys.
 Stephanie never goes brain-dead, Brent mumbled.
If only they knew. It was incredibly uncomfortable for Royce to scent how aroused his
assistant was for his two partners. Then again, he knew how hot Kiara was for him. Fucking hell, he
loved how sweet her arousal smelled whenever he was around. She tempted him like no other human
or shifter ever had. The first look into those gorgeous brown eyes and he d been lost. The flirty grin
when she joked around with Stephanie and didn t see him coming made his gut clench.
And that body. All those curves. He wanted to shove his face between her thighs and lick her
into screaming his name. Better yet, he wanted to rub her cream all over his face and fuck her until
she went hoarse. So yeah, he couldn t fault his friends for wanting the vivacious Stephanie when he
was mentally fucking Kiara every way possible wherever he saw her. Thankfully, he didn t have to
worry about Stephanie wanting him. She was highly turned on by his friends. But her warm
personality helped Royce work alongside her without worrying about her attaching herself to him.
 The party will be your opportunity to see if Stephanie can be talked into something with the
two of you, he said casually, mind still in the gutter with Kiara.
 You really think she ll go for it? For us? Bryan whispered.
 Yes. Royce stood, listening to Kiara s voice outside, telling Stephanie on the phone she d
be right down.  I ll be back. My little kitten is getting ready to leave, and I want a few more minutes
in her presence.
 So, Brent grinned,  is saying you re pussy whipped accurate? I mean she is a pussy and has
a pussy. He laughed.
 I think you re right, bro. Bryan joined in the laughter.
 Think what you want, but I know you two will be kissing Stephanie s feet when she demands
it. He left the office and his two friends grumbling behind.
Marching down the hallway, he stepped into the elevator just as the doors were about to
close. Kiara s wide-eyed stare pushed his wolf to the surface. They had all but a few seconds.
 How are you? He asked, watching her lick her lips in the glassy interior of the car. Her gaze
traveled from his lips down his body. His cock turned hard at that single needy look she didn t think
he saw.
 Good, thanks, she said in that low, throaty voice he loved. Phone-sex operators had nothing
on her.
 Are you going to the party? He asked.
 I m not sure yet. It s kind of short notice. She inhaled deep, and a soft purring sounded.
Fucking hell, that was hot. She coughed to cover it up, but the damage was already done. He d
already visualized her purring as he fucked her long and hard. Her body cushioning each of his blows
into her heat, and her pussy sucking him dry when he came.
He was too busy trying not to come in his pants from his mental porno movie with her that the
door ping caught him by surprise.
 Have a good night, she whispered, rushing out of the cab.
Good? Only if he got to manually satisfy his need for her. The need she d soon be filling. He
knew she d be his on Halloween. Even if he had to chase her, she d be his.
Chapter Two
 A Halloween party, Kiara said. She wasn t a fan of parties. Heck, she wasn t a fan of
crowds. Cats, or in her case, tigers, were solitary creatures.
 Yes! Her friend, Stephanie, leaned forward over the table, excitement sparkling in her dark
eyes.  I can t believe the partners are finally doing something this cool for their employees.
Yeah, she couldn t believe it either. Their bosses, aka the hottest male muscle Kiara had ever
come across in all her thirty-two years Royce  Growly McDaddy Night and Bryan and Brent
 Wonder Twin Day the partners and owners of Night and Day Ink were professional. No-
nonsense. Owners of the largest corporation of tattoo shops, they were kept busy all the time. Not to
mention they had those rough and tough personalities that made women drop at their feet. Royce Night
worked nights. Steph was his assistant during that shift. And let s not forget he was a shifter. The big
bad bitey type that didn t like her kind.
As a feline, she was the enemy. At least, all through history they had been. Though she d heard
of wolves and felines who d mated, it was rare and far between. Being a wolf didn t take away from
how hot he was with those piercing blue eyes and the rough and rugged features that screamed,  I m
wild in bed.
Dammit! She kept fantasizing about how wild he could be. She had a hard time on the best of
days keeping her attraction under wraps. Thank God she only saw him briefly as she walked out the
door. Even if she looked forward to those few moments they were near each other, she never crossed
the line. She was a cat, and he was a wolf. She d never be able to work with him. Her tigress went
haywire when she got a glimpse of the six foot four hotshot with a body made for licking.
Then there were Bryan and Brent Day. Those twins were hot enough to make all the women in
the office melt on the spot with a single smile. They handled the day-time operations of the business,
and were also known as Kiara s bosses. Though they were handsome in the me-love-you-long-time
way, it was Royce who made Kiara s cat perk up. And lately, the damn kitty was purring way too
often.
 I admit this is very unlike them, she mused. None of the men appeared to be party animals.
Most of the time they were serious, focused.
 Forget what it s like and let s think up costumes. Steph grinned.  I m thinking something
fun. Maybe I ll be a sexy dominatrix.
Kiara almost choked on her drink, drawing the attention of the other bar patrons. It was
Thursday night, and the Cat s Meow was packed with the usual happy hour crowd of professionals.
But this was the time they met up to chat since they had opposite hours at the same office.  Are you
out of your mind? This is a work function!
 So? She pouted.  We don t get to do anything fun because we re never off the same hours.
This will be a first.
 No leather, Kiera groaned.
 Oh, I know you ll be something like Little Red Riding Hood, won t you?
 Well&  She d bought that exact costume the previous year, hoping to wear it for Halloween
and hand out candy. Her own personal joke on being a cat and wanting the wolf at the office, but
she d ended up having to lock herself away. She d been in heat without a partner. Heck, with the way
her body was acting, she anticipated having to skip the party if her cat went into full-blown heat
again. She was already demanding sex, and she was popping her heat suppressants like tic-tacs.
 Yeah, real exciting. Stephanie rolled her eyes.  I want fun.
 What about a 
 Oh! Steph opened her eyes wide, her mouth formed into a perfect circle.  I ll be a belly
dancer.
 You have been taking the classes and can get away with it. Kiera nodded. She, on the other
hand, could only get away with shifting into her tigress and biting someone s ass if they weren t
careful.
 It s not like I plan on performing. But I already have the clothes for the upcoming show
we re doing at my dance class.
As long as she wasn t strutting around smacking her co-workers or God forbid her boss
with a paddle, they d be fine. If Steph went anywhere near Royce in any kind of more than the boss-
employee way, she d have a problem with Kiara s snarly tigress. But Kiara knew poor Steph had the
hots for the wonder twins.
 I haven t been feeling well, so I m not sure I ll be there, Kiera murmured, not really
convinced. Besides, the last thing she needed was to go into heat and be in the same room with
Royce.
 Royce won t be there, Steph said. Was she that transparent that Steph knew what she was
thinking?
 Why not?
She shrugged.  He has some other thing going on. Something about  getting a mate were his
words. I hardly understand him when he talks in riddles.
That s right. Halloween would have a full month this year. As if going into heat wasn t bad
enough, most of their kind chose that time to find a mate. Or to claim those they already knew they
wanted. If he didn t go to the party, then maybe she could go after all.
 I know you like him. Steph winked, sipping on her drink.
 I do not! Liar. She went so hot around him, she swore she would internally combust.
 Don t bother denying it. The few times we ve been in the elevator together I swear the
temperature shoots up and I feel like I m going to watch you attack each other at any moment.
 You have a very active imagination. Kiara laughed.
Shit. Had she been that obvious? She d known she was attracted to Royce and his rough and
rugged features to the point she almost purred whenever he was near. Those blue eyes focused on
hers made her skin sizzle. But for Steph to notice was strange. Kiara was sure she d been
professional at all times. Well, most of the time, unless she was daydreaming with the big bad wolf
frolicking with her kitty.
 Too bad he won t be at the party. Steph sighed.  It would have been your chance to talk to
him outside the office. She wiggled her brows.  Maybe even do something about that explosive
attraction between you two.
Oh, hell to the no. Thank you very much. She did not need to go near the wolf and make her
already horny cat that much more interested in him. They d had a handful of words spoken between
them. Besides, with the way she d been feeling lately, it was quite likely she d end up attacking him.
* * *
Kiara glanced around the large house, her palms sweaty. Her cat pushed under the skin,
wanting loose. She d taken the heat suppressant before she d left for the party, but it seemed the
stupid pills hadn t taken effect. Now, all she wanted was to strip bare and find the only male she d
been daydreaming about who happened to not be at the party to rub on for relief. Disgust over her
present situation rolled through her along with the beginnings of a purr.
God dammit! She d arrived not more than half an hour before. So far, she d had a single drink
and managed to evade Bob  Octopus Hands from Marketing. He d gawked at her too-damn-tight
costume and licked his lips while staring at her boobs. She d gained weight since the previous year
and didn t try it on prior to that night. So she ended up stuck in the too snug little red riding hood mini
dress that felt like it was going to pop at the seams at any moment. She didn t dare breathe too deep
for fear of falling out of the neckline.
The main salon was crammed with people. Some of them she recognized, while others were
not the kind that she knew worked at Night and Day. Shifters. Wolves for the most part. They eyed her
with enough interest she almost broke her neck doing double takes and trying to figure out what the
hell was going on.
Her cat rubbed her insides, hoping to get out. Like hell. Not in that mutt orgy. The way the men
sniffed and groaned when she passed by told her they could scent her heat. Christ, she needed to go
home, lock all the doors, and suffer in silence. Damn stupid pills didn t work. It had never happened
to her before. Her hopes of getting out quickly died. The hall was not only packed with sweaty, horny
people, it was hot and too late to try to go back.
She pushed her way through the colorful costumes and loud thumping music toward the back
of the massive house. Bypassing catering staff in the kitchen, she finally found a door to the yard.
Hopefully there would be a way she could go around without running into too much attention.
Breaths rushed out of her the minute she reached the yard. Fire took hold of her skin. The
tigress wanted loose. Something was making her harder to control. A scent drifted from the woods,
lodging into her feline. Her hormones went crazy. She knew that scent. It was familiar and so sensual
she wanted to run for it. Kiara couldn t believe it. Nothing like that had ever happened to her before.
Just great. She headed into the woods, away from prying eyes and toward a scent that seemed to
whisper her name.
Everything turned hazy. Questions blurred about anything other than the here and now. Animal
instinct took place.
Mine. Mine. Mine.
The animal scent called her. Earthy. Wild. Like a spray of mud, rain, and sex all rolled into
one. As she drew near she realized why it was familiar.
Royce.
Chapter Three
Shit! Her mind screamed to turn and run, but the cat was in control now. She wanted near him.
Near the man she considered hers. Her heels caught in the earth, making it difficult for her to walk.
Urgency speared her. This was wrong. He wasn t even her kind of shifter. How could they be mates?
But none of that mattered when instinct drove her forward, deeper into the night. Deeper into the dark
forest.
Using the last shred of her self-control, she forced herself to stop. Though her body tried to
urge forward, she ignored the instinct and pushed away. She slipped her feet out of the heels, leaving
them behind in her haste.
 I know you can hear me, she whispered into the silent night, taking quick steps away from
the delightful scent that made her slick between her legs. Kiara wasn t some easy kitty. Royce would
have to do a lot more than look good to get her.  If you want me, you ll have to catch me.
And then she ran.
Anticipation built so fast in her chest, she almost choked trying to get air into her lungs. A
howling pierced the quiet. She grinned. He was coming. She could feel it. Hell, she could hear him
hunting her. And all it did was make her pussy even wetter. Wind whipped her hair around her face.
She didn t stop. She ran harder, faster. Excitement bubbled in her, growing with the desire she felt for
him. Dodging branches and tree limbs, she moved with the speed and agility her kind were known for.
A growl sounded near. Wait. The growls turned to yips and garbled barks. Did she just hear
him say,  Here kitty, kitty?
Picking up the pace, she ignored the mud spreading between her toes and the soft grass
caressing her soles and ran. This was it. She couldn t make it easy for him. She tugged the dress over
her head, balling it in her fist and then holding it between her teeth. Then she shifted. She let the
tigress free.
Muscles shifted, bones cracked, and the cat pounced loose. Her vision sharpened, taking in
her surroundings. She moved deeper into the forest. The sound of rushing water caught her attention.
She ran for it. Snarling when she saw the slow-moving creek ahead. The trees opened and with it, the
view of the large full moon was clear. It shone down on her and the area, making it even easier for
her to see.
Before she got a chance to blink, he was on her. They tussled, and the bundle fell from her
jaws as they rolled on the grass. She shifted to her naked human body.
Kiara turned on her back and stared up into Royce s eyes and the aroused tight lines of his
face.  Kiara& 
Lord have mercy. She d never heard him say her name like that so low and rough and sexy
as hell.
 Royce. She swallowed hard, watching his nostrils flare and his deep intake of air.
 You smell so fucking good, he growled.
Her pussy throbbed. Heat blossomed inside. A half-moan half-purr rolled up her throat. Pure
animal attraction drove her. She wanted him. Had wanted him for months. Every look they shared,
every time she inhaled his addictive scent had driven her desire further into the realm of need. She
might be in heat, but she knew all about desperation. It s what was burning her from the inside for a
single touch of his lips on her or his hands over her body. She couldn t wait any longer. Her control
snapped. She lifted her hands, twined her fingers into his blond hair, gripping the strands, and jerked
his head down.
Lips met in a frantic kiss. Tongues rubbed over each other in a hot caress so sensual she
purred in the back of her throat. He dropped over her, hot bodies rubbing. They rolled on the soft
grass, until she lay over him, thighs wide open and the bar of his cock rubbing her slick folds.
She mewled. Need centered in her stomach. Like a swarm of butterflies flapping their wings
in her chest, she struggled to get air into her lungs. His kiss turned rougher, hotter. Cupping her face in
his palms, he held her head in place. Stars burst behind her lids. More. She needed more than just his
lips on her. Wiggling over him, she groaned when his hard cock rubbed at her entrance. God, she was
so close to dying from wanting him. His hands traveled down, and she pushed up to a sitting position.
If she moved just a tiny bit, she could have him filling her.
 Kiara&  The deep rumble made her purr again. She jerked her eyes open to meet his bright
blue gaze.  Ah, kitten, your heat is dripping on my cock.
 I need you, she moaned. A hot shudder rolled down her spine. Passion burned in her pores
with every small slide of her body over his.
He tugged her body down until his lips encased one of her nipples. The groan that slipped out
of her was loud and garbled, filled with need. Electricity shot from her nipple to her clit and back.
She pushed her chest into his hot mouth, loving the feel of his tongue flicking over her tiny hard bud.
 God, yes.
He licked over her areola, across the valley of her breasts, and then sucked the other into his
mouth. She panted and purred, body vibrating with pleasure. His hands caressed down her spine to
squeeze at her ass cheeks.
 Fuck, kitten. You re hot. So damn hot. I want inside you.
 Yes. Finally.
He curled his hands around her waist and lifted. Their gazes met. She couldn t have looked
away even if everyone in the party showed up to watch them. He took his sweet time and brought her
down over his cock. She bit her lip, strangling back a moan of pleasure. In a slow and drawn-out
move, he filled her with his hardness. Her skin felt tight, hot, and ready to explode with each inch he
slipped inside her.
The tigress inside purred. It went on that way, until he was fully inside her, stretching her
slick channel.
She widened her legs some more to drop even lower, dragging a choked groan from him.
 Jesus.
With a quick rocking of her hips, she had him groaning for more. She dug her nails into his
chest, lifting and dropping over him. His hands moved over her hips to cup her ass cheeks. Passion
flared bright in his blue eyes. She had a hard time holding back the moan that surfaced at his
possessive stare.
He guided her up and down his length, lifting and dropping her in quick repetitive moves. Up.
Down. Faster. Hotter. Until she swore her insides were on fire. Until she started shaking from the
quick tightening in her core.
Their gazes stayed locked on each other. Neither wanting to break the bonding connection
between them. Her hands shifted, turning her fingernails into claws. But she couldn t stop what her
tigress wanted. To mark him. To own him. To claim the man and the animal.
Dragging her claws down his chest, she scarred him, leaving thin lines of ownership down to
his washboard abs. He hissed, and his cock thickened in her channel, rubbing and branding her with
its heat. Almost as quickly as she made them, the scratches started to heal. Rain washed away the
blood of the wounds she d made to show the healed, but scarred skin left behind. Branding him with
her mark.
 Oh, God!
The quick unraveling of tension shook her to the core. Before she had a chance to ready for the
push over the edge, she was already floating. Pleasure melted all thoughts of anything but him. Them.
There was nothing else but their newly formed connection and that tide of bliss rushing her.
She screamed as wave after wave of intense joy racked her body. Time ceased to exist.
Nature surrounded them, joining in with drops of rain coating their overheated bodies. He growled
loud over the harsh beating of her heart.
 Mine, he snarled.
Yes! He rammed his cock deep into her a final time and came, filling her with his seed. She
fell forward, his hot chest right under her cheek. She grinned at the sound of his racing heart. The
tigress purred, loving he feel of him still thick and hard inside her. It didn t matter that it was raining
and they were on the grass, still connected and wet. She rubbed her cheek on his chest. A purr
sounded at the back of her throat. Christ. The man was going to turn her into a house cat.
 I love that sound, he said, his voice rough and deep with arousal.
 What sound? She moaned as his cock turned steel hard inside her, growing thicker by the
second and filling oh so perfectly.
Royce rolled them over on the wet grass. Cool moist drops of the light rain coated their
bodies, turning them slick and wet. Still inside her hot, tight pussy, he nudged deeper into her. The
quick flutter of her channel tightening around him was bliss. Absolute heaven. He couldn t stop
himself. He wanted her again. Wanted to taste her. Her sweet scent called him down to lick her. To
rub his face on her folds and pleasure her like only he could.
He kissed his way down her slick body, pushing her breasts together and licking from one
nipple to the other. Her soft moans pushed him further. He bit down on one tip and she purred. That
sound. It was the sexiest fucking sound he d ever heard. Swiping his tongue down her belly, he licked
around her belly button, and dropped to her clean-shaven pussy.
She mewled. Her nails dug into his scalp, gripping his wet strands between her fingers.  Oh,
Royce.
He kissed her left inner thigh. Then the right.  I may not be a cat, he licked a trail from slit to
clit,  but I love the taste of your cream.
Her body vibrated. One flick of his tongue over her clit and she was jerking in his arms, balls
of her feet digging into his back. Her moans said it all. She loved his mouth on her sex. And he loved
pleasuring her. Another swipe, and he sucked on her folds. On her cream and that delicate heat
dripping from her slit.
 Yes, Royce, yes&  she murmured throatily.
He growled, shoved his tongue deep into her channel and licked. Her trashing on the ground
only enhanced his own aroused state. He wanted to fuck her again. To feel her pussy hugging his cock
so tight he swore he saw double. To fight her pulsing walls to hit her deep and hard and come at the
same time her pussy fluttered over his dick. And then he wanted to do it again.
The rain continued to cool the heat from their bodies. He loved watching the drops fall on her
skin, on her nipples and her quivering body. Every single splatter slowly eased down a different
curve and left a wet trail he wanted to lick. Her body tensed under his driving tongue. He struck
faster, flicking over the tight bundle of nerves in quick rotation.
 Oh, God, oh God, oh God! She screamed, body twitching and jerking in his hold. He didn t
stop. No. He continued licking at her pussy and adding to each of her deep shudders.
She tugged on his hair. He glanced up to meet her bold sensual smile. That amazing smile of a
woman well loved.
 Fuck me, Royce.
Jesus. Hearing her say the words had an immediate effect, and made his cock twitch. But it
was the glowing gold in her eyes, the gold of her tigress that pushed him beyond control. Both the
woman and the animal wanted him.
He knew she d be his, but now he wanted her to love him. Call him selfish, but he knew he
could make her happy. The animal stared at him from deep in her eyes. He saw emotions there. Those
deep feelings he knew she possessed. And he wanted them. Wanted her heart, body, and soul.
He crawled up her torso. Their wet bodies allowed him to slip up easily. Her legs spread
wide, welcoming him into her sex. One deep thrust, and he knew he d found home. Her pussy gripped
him in a hold so tight, so perfect he almost came that very instant.
 Royce, oh& you feel so good. She moaned, digging her nails into his back. He could feel the
sharp tips of her claws cutting into his flesh. She was branding him again. Fuck it if that didn t turn his
wolf all kinds of happy. The beast wanted her mark on him. He wanted to belong to her. But he
wanted his mark on her too.
He cupped her face in his hands, forcing her to meet his stare while still pumping deep and
hard into her, fucking her with long strokes that sent electric tingles from his back to his cock.
 Please& 
 Please what, darling? Fuck you harder? He loved the tightening of her channel over his
cock. Her lids lowered to half-mast. That sleepy-eyed look combined with her moaning and wet
facial features only turned him on more.  Do you like the feel of my dick in your pussy?
 Yes! God, yes!
He grinned at her quick response. He brought his face down to hers, meshing their lips
together in a new kiss. A harsh branding of her mouth, claiming it as his. He fucked her full lips with
his tongue at the same time he fucked her slick pussy with his cock. Her soft body cushioned every
quick, hard blow, urging the tension in his spine to unravel. To break free and let his climax soar. He
bit her lip, sucking on her swollen flesh and licking circles down to her racing pulse at the soft curve
of her neck. With each thrust, he growled, the animal pushing to break loose.
Mark her. Mate her. Own her.
The wolf wanted his own brand of mating. Royce bit down on the soft curve of her neck and
thrust a final time. She raked her claws all over his back, drawing groans of pleasure from him. He
marked her on the shoulder with his canines, branding her as his. Her pussy clasped his cock hard.
She screamed, and pleasure blasted through him in electric currents. With each flutter of her pussy, he
kept coming, filling her with his seed.
They struggled to breathe in unison. Her slick channel s sucking of his cock restarted the need
to mate. His animal wanted to fuck her for days. Her heat pushed him forth, and all he could think of
was staying in her warm embrace and making her his. He groaned when her muscles flexed around his
shaft, taking every bit of his essence deep into her, marking her from the inside. Her legs shook at his
sides. He couldn t contain the smile that broke free.
Her lovely brows rose, and the tigress receded from her eyes.  What s so funny?
 How good you smell with my scent all over you.
Indecision clouded her golden gaze.  We let the heat take us, Royce.
 Say it again, he ordered, loving the sound of his name on her lips.
 What?
 My name.
Her swollen lips tipped up in a flirty smile.  Royce.
His cock jerked inside her, and she moaned.  I like hearing you say it.
 I like saying your name. She licked those sinful lips before adding,  It s sexy.
He pulled back softly before ramming his once again hard cock into her.  I like hearing you
scream it better.
 Please, she moaned,  Royce, we need to talk. The soft tremble in her voice stopped him
from taking her again. Though that s all he could think of.
 What s there to talk about?
Chapter Four
Kiara had a difficult time making use of her faculties when Royce was still rocking into her.
The cat rolled around inside wanting to get fucked hard. On all fours and mated. That s what they both
wanted. Yet, she knew they needed some things out in the open, or they d never be able to make any
kind of relationship work.
 I marked you, she stated without a single ounce of remorse.
 I know. He grinned, showing his lengthening canines.  I ve marked you too.
 What do you want from me? From us? She was a feline shifter. Not used to being with any
man other than a human or her own kind. But here she was, marked, and pretty sure about to be mated
to a wolf.
His features turned serious.  I wanted you from the minute I saw you.
She swallowed against the multitude of questions clogging her throat.  That s normal for us.
You know we are sexual creatures. I love having you inside me, filling me. But I need more than that
in my life.
 I know what you mean. He withdrew from her body and the emptiness she suddenly felt
almost tore at her insides.
He stood and held out a hand to help her to her feet. Her legs wobbled, and her knees shook.
Nice. He d fucked her boneless. That was a first. She didn t get a chance to get her legs to work
before he lifted her chubby body into his arms. He brought them into the cold creek and she squealed.
 Are you insane? This water is cold!
His booming laughter caught her by surprise. Then she smiled. Seeing his normally serious
features go from drop-dead sexy to super-fine with that grin.
 So I guess what I ve heard about cats is true, he joked, bringing her deeper into the cold,
creek water.
 What did you hear? She shifted to curl her legs around his waist at the same time his hands
held her up by her ass, bodies plastered together.
 That they hate water. He chuckled.
 We do not hate water. She sniffed.  But I m not into sadistic punishment with frozen
creeks.
The smile slid from his lips, and his eyes glowed with arousal.  I want you, Kiara. Not just
today. Or this week. Or for the heat. I want to be with you.
Fear and hope battled in her chest.  You don t even know me.
He brought a cold, wet hand up to her face and twined it into her hair, cupping the back of her
skull.  Then let me get to know you. Let what we ve already started tonight develop at its own pace.
 We ve started the mating process, she whispered.  You know that.
 I want to be mated to you. I want to get to know you. I want to create something long lasting.
There s such a thing as instinct, and mine tells me you re the one. You and me.
Those words. Her heart tripped in her chest. They were exactly what she wanted to hear a
mate say to her.
 I m a cat, she mumbled, her mind trying to fight the possibility they could make something
out of the intense attraction they shared.
 You re a beautiful tigress, he murmured, bringing his lips softly over hers for a slow brush
that made her nipples tighten.  I don t care if you re a feline, a wolf, a human, or a troll. I want to be
with you.
Something inside her, other than her very horny cat, told her this was the right thing to do. To
go for it. Royce was a man of integrity. He was a protector, not that she needed it, but it was a good
thing. He was strong. And he had that possessive glint that made her tigress want to roar. Plus, he was
the first to make her hormones and emotions turn soft at thoughts of a relationship with him.
 I could be breeding right now, she said, wanting to see his reaction. She was in heat, and
he d fucked her three times straight with no protection.
 Then we ll see it through together. His gaze bore into hers.  And I bet anything we create
will be perfect.
That sealed it. She pushed forward to kiss him, mating their mouths in a bold dance of tongues
and lips.
 Yes&  She whimpered, rubbing her pussy on his erection.  Mate me. Make me yours.
 I ll do better than that. He licked her jaw.  I ll do whatever s necessary to make you
happy.
That s all she wanted to hear. He brought her toward the water s edge where a soft patch of
grass lay in direct sight of the moonlight. She got down on all four, knees and hands digging into the
wet grass. She shivered at the first feel of his lips trailing down her spine.
 Beautiful&  He whispered between kisses.
She struggled to force air into her lungs when the broad head of his cock pierced her sex.
 Oh&  Yesss.
He pushed forward into her heat in one quick, demanding thrust. A moan escaped her throat.
His hands slid up her sides, setting her skin on fire. Then he caged her. His harsh breaths caressed the
side of her neck.
 Fuck, kitten, you re so perfect, he growled, his voice a deep, churned gravel.  So wet and
hot and slick around my cock.
He drove deep and pulled back. And an instant tightening gathered in her core. Her body was
ready to explode, and he d just begun. With every thrust, the anticipation built inside. For him. For
them. For more. A new set of emotions blossomed in her heart. Hope. Joy. Excitement for what they
could build together.
She whimpered.  Take me, Royce. I m yours.
 Ah, kitten. You won t regret it.
His harsh thrusts made her dig her nails deep into the earth to brace herself. The slap of skin
on skin heightened her lust. It was a matter of seconds before she felt her muscles lock. The tigress
was right under her skin, enjoying the sensations of their mate. Kiara s body vibrated as he pounded
harder and harsher into her. So hard it felt like his cock was stamping her body with his own brand of
ownership.
 Let go, kitten.
 Royce& 
 You re mine, Kiara. He snarled the word by her ear, pushing so deep into her she saw stars.
Breathing shallow and focused solely on the driving cock filling her channel with heat, she
became lost in the instant snapping at her core.
 Oh, God! Oh, Royce!
 Mine, kitten. All mine.
He struck then. Canines dug deep into the back of her shoulder as her orgasm overtook her. A
tidal wave of bliss coursed through her body so fast she was left breathless. Wave upon wave of
mind-melting pleasure filled her. He growled on her skin, vibrating at her back as his cock filled her
with his cum. The feel of his hot essence drew out a new orgasm. She was left panting and boneless
with Royce licking at her shoulder and jerking into her pussy.
She couldn t move if her life depended on it. She was still trying to figure out how to calm her
racing heart and rough breathing when he turned her over and picked her up in his arm to bring her
back to the cold creek. She wanted to complain, but instead leaned her head into his shoulder, body
still numb with pleasure.
 Don t worry, kitten, I ll do whatever I have to do to make you happy.
That s all she wanted.
