Her Protective Mate (The Ward Wolf Pack Novella Series, Book 3) by Theresa Hissong (motivational books for men .TXT) 📗

His fingers played and coaxed at her body as he took her lips with a heated kiss. The canines in her mouth were sharp, but it didn’t matter to him. He had fallen for the woman, not the idea of a shifter for a mate. He was only human, but he would fight anyone and anything to protect her as if he was one of them himself.

“I’m going to make love to you, Aspen,” he growled in her ear when he kissed her neck. “Then, I’m going to fuck you. Don’t you hold back on me either. Do whatever you have to do to make us a pair.”

“Please, Booker,” she begged, writhing in pleasure under him.

She was so beautiful. Her eyes had changed over to a hazy yellow, and a soft blush filled her cheeks, but not from embarrassment. No, she was aroused, and her wolf was present. He understood her need to bite and mark him, and to be honest, he wanted it…craved it.

To know she would leave her mark on not only his skin, but his heart and soul, made him kiss her harder. He couldn’t get enough of her and that scent. It called to him on some primal level.

“We’ll go slow,” he warned as he held his cock, guiding it to her sex. He kept his eyes on hers, waiting to see if he might hurt her in anyway, but his little woman surprised him when she shifted her hips, greedily wanting him inside.

“Just do it, Booker,” she panted. “I need you, and it won’t hurt me. If it does, I heal fast.”

“Jesus, woman,” he growled as she dug her fingers into his hips.

They both cursed when he broke through her virginity, stalling a moment to let her get used to the feel of him inside her. Aspen pulled him back to her lips and rotated her hips…once…twice.

“Oh, gods,” she hummed and nipped at his neck. “I want to bite you now.”

He thrust, drawing back, slow and steady, moving faster and faster each time. Oh, he could get used to her body. It was shear perfection.

“Do what you must, Aspen,” he reminded her.

“Let me,” she paused, gritting her teeth. “You…you have to mount me from behind, Booker.”

Before he had a chance to slide out of her carefully, she bucked and pushed him. The action startled him for a second, but she scrambled to get on her hands and knees, bowing her upper body to the mattress.

Then he remembered what she’d said. Without missing a beat, he slid his cock back inside her, reaching for her hair. He sunk his hands into the long, soft strands and made a fist at her scalp. When he pulled her up so her back met his chest, he wrapped an arm around her hips so he could use his finger to work her clit.

“You need to come for me, Aspen,” he ordered, nipping at her neck again. But this time, the growl that came from her throat was more animal-like than any other time he’d heard it before.

“When I climax, my wolf will take over,” she warned as she cried out.

He fucked her harder with each word that fell from her mouth. He read her like a book, and knew exactly when her orgasm reached its peak. With a growl, she dislodged him, flipping him to his back.

She took his cock with a warm hand and guided it back into her body as she shifted her hips, riding him to his own release.

And the moment he shouted her name, the woman he’d grown to love pushed his head to the side and sank her teeth into his neck.

He must’ve blacked out for a moment, because the next thing he remembered was her lapping at the mark she’d made.

“That was amazing,” she hummed as she slid off his body and snuggled up to his side like a contented puppy.

“Are you okay?” he worried, rolling on his side to face her. He ran his finger over her soft cheek, feeling the heat of her skin.

“Better than okay,” she smiled, then yawned.

“What do we do now?” he finally asked after laying there, holding her close.

“Well, I guess you should go meet my family,” she mentioned.

“Your brothers aren’t going to kick my ass, are they?”

“I doubt it,” she chuckled, kissing his shoulder.

They were distracted when the sound of a small plane filled the quietness of his forest home. They both paused for a second before Aspen gasped loudly, “Shit! That’s Charlie’s plane. What is she doing here?”

They scrambled to dress, and Booker watched as she bolted out the door at an unhuman speed. He tried to keep up with her, but she was already at the landing strip by the time he arrived and Charlie taxied to her location. The moment her brother’s mate dropped from her seat, he knew something was wrong with their family.

“Nash has called an emergency meeting,” Charlie fretted. “Aspen, I need to take you home.”

Chapter 8

Aspen couldn’t wait for Booker to arrive. He was finally coming to meet her family. Charlie would fly there to pick him up as soon as they were done with the pack meeting with her brother. If it wasn’t for his urgency to get everyone together, she would’ve brought him home with her.

The moment she walked into Nash’s office, she noticed Isabell standing next to her brother, comforting the alpha as he sat at his desk with his fingers rubbing his temples.

“What’s going on?” she blurted, feeling a bit of panic overcome her.

“Have a seat, Aspen,” Mason said from her right. She hadn’t even noticed him standing against the wall with Charlie at his side. Harper and Fury were with him, too.

She hurried to take the
