“I’m a good mate.”

She locks eyes with me, and I see the blush creep across her cheeks as she smiles at me. I smell her desire for me. Her heat is rising, and my need is becoming impossibly stronger. A growl sounds from my chest.

I’ve heard that when a shifter finds their mate, the pull is instant. I wasn’t sure if I ever believed that, but I wanted it to be true. Even more so after I spent so much time in the wild. I didn’t look like a lot of the shifters anymore. My features had changed after spending too much time in wolf form, I knew I was unattractive. If my mate was attracted to me instantly, she wouldn't care what I looked like. She wouldn't have a choice. It might not be fair to my beautiful mate that she’s stuck with me, but I would take any advantage I could to keep her. Even if it was just Mother Nature making her stay.

If the stories are true, we need to bond now or the need will just become more painful. Once my semen is released inside my Gwen, the full heat should hit us hard and the mating frenzy will begin and stay until the full moon.

Carrying her over the threshold of our home, I kick the front door shut behind us and take her straight back to our bedroom. I don’t break eye contact with her as I take her over to the bed. “You can see the rest of the house later,” I tell her, needing to have her now. Between the mating pull and them trying to take her from me, I need to bond to her. Mark her now so I know she’s really mine. That they can’t try and take her from me again.

“Yes. Later,” she confirms, her wolf rising a little closer to the surface, making her blue eyes shift to a darker blue. A deep growl sounds low in her chest, and it’s clear her heat is gripping her tightly, too. I’m glad she’s feeling it as much as I am. It’s eating me from the inside out.

I set her down softly on the bed and feel my own eyes shift as she takes a step back from me. I don’t like that she’s putting any kind of space between us. I’m still completely naked from when I shifted in the cell and ripped all my clothes. My cock is long and hard and I’m sure it’s pointing right at my mate.

I’ve been so caught up in everything that happened, I missed that fact that my cock had become hard for the first time in my life. Until you find the one, your cock will remain soft and unaffected, desiring no one. Once you find your other half, it finally comes to life, and I have a feeling it’s going to stay that way having a mate like Gwen. She’s utter perfection. Her beauty is unmatched and it’s all mine.

Reaching down, I stroke the hardness, testing it and feeling the warmth flow through my body as I watch Gwen. I had no idea it would feel like this. My eyes narrow as I watch her hands quickly go to her dress, ripping it off her body along with the rest of her clothes. In seconds she’s before me, completely naked, and my mouth waters. All I can do is stare at her. I’ve never seen a naked woman before, and she has to be the most beautiful in the world. How she got stuck with a beast more animal than man, I’ll never understand. She deserves someone who can give her both sides. I growl at the thought of someone else giving her that. I will earn her affection another way. I am strong and fast and will show her how my animal being so close to the surface will work in her favor.

“Goddamn, you’re huge all over.” Her eyes are glowing as they run down my body before she focuses on my cock. She doesn't seem intimidated by my size. I’ve grown a lot in the years since she’s seen me. I’m not a young man, nor is she a little girl. That is clear because where I once saw her as something like a cute little kitten that needed protecting, now I see her as an alpha wolf female I want to take to the ground and make mine in the most primitive way.

Another low growl sounds through the room, and I can’t tell if it’s hers or mine. I can feel my own eyes glowing as the pull between us gets stronger. The smell of lust fills the room, so thick I can taste it, but I’d rather get it from the source.

“You’re mouthwatering. I need to taste you.” My teeth ache with the need to bite. “I need to mark you.”

I clench my fists at my side and try to control my wolf. I have a primal need to mount her, but I want to be delicate with her. She probably already thinks I’m too wild of a beast. I must show her I can be soft, too. I’m so much bigger than her, and I could hurt her. I feel out of my depth with her. It’s been so long since I really even talked to another female beyond a few sentences with Dom’s mate, Ruby.

Gwen puts her nose in the air and takes a deep breath, then looks back at me, giving me a wicked grin, and I wonder if she is inhaling the lust, too. “I’m the first to be in here besides you. It makes my wolf happy that it’s only your scent.” Of course you are, I want to growl, but I bite it back and go with something gentler, more human.

“You’re the first and last, my love.” I absently rub my cock, the feel of it so foreign. She looks down and watches my movements. I start to take a step towards her, but I don’t make it an inch.
