His to Protect: Book 1 in the Bound to Him Series by Sandra Antoni (the reading list TXT) 📗

stayed at Chelsea’s apartment so we could sort through her things. She didn’t really have any sentimental feelings towards any of her furniture, and I already had a fully furnished house, so we had arranged to donate it all.

What had surprised me most was when I saw her Dodge Ram extended cab pickup truck. That, we were definitely keeping. Looks like I didn’t need to get a truck after all. We had agreed to drive back to Tucson so that we could take all the boxes of stuff that she had wanted to keep.

We had shared a few meals with her parents while we were there, and I got the opportunity to thank them for raising such a wonderful woman. They were both really great people, and before we left, I told them to visit us any time. They would always be welcome, and I had plenty of room at my house for them to stay with us.

Over the last two months, Chelsea had been helping me with the marketing for our company. She had jumped at the opportunity when I brought it up to her, and she had been bringing in more clients. I was glad to add her to the payroll, and she was relieved to have something to do.

Most evenings after the sun went down, we changed into our wolves and ran through the mountains. Chelsea loved the mountains in either form, but she wanted the chance for her wolf to have some freedom. Her wolf had been trapped and kept silent for twenty-eight years, and my wolf loved running with her.

Today was my birthday, and I had gotten Chelsea to wear that same little black dress that she had worn to Brady and Emily’s Christmas party. Wow did she look hot! Her legs seemed to go on forever, and I had watched the curve of her breasts all evening across the table from me. My cock had been hard all evening.

We had gone back to the resort restaurant for dinner. It was my favorite place, and she had surprised me with this evening out and where we were eating. Now that she had tried a lot of different foods on the menu, we had each only ordered one meal. We had laughed over dinner about the first time I had taken her there and all the food I had ordered.

But now we were home. We were home, and I could not wait to get her out of that dress. I had already explained to Chelsea about my wolf wanting to mate hers and what that meant, and she had seemed eager, but I had still wanted to wait. I wanted us to get to know each other better first.

Now, she stood in the middle of the bedroom watching me. Her hair fell long over her shoulders, and I studied her body under her dress. The dress really did not leave much to the imagination. It hugged every curve like a glove.

I had noticed the looks that she had gotten from other men at the restaurant, and it made me gloat inside. Chelsea only had eyes for me. She didn’t want anyone else, and no one could ever complete me like she did. Her eyes watched mine as I sat down on the edge of the bed. Then I crooked a finger at her, indicating for her to come here.

She didn’t just walk across the room, she sashayed towards me. Her hips swung to the side with each step, and with her shoulders back, her breasts pressed against the edge of the fabric of her dress.

“Have I told you today how beautiful you are?” I asked her when she was standing between my legs. I slid my arms around her back. She had a beautiful smile on her face.

“I think you might have mentioned it once or twice,” she replied with a grin.

“I’ll never tire of telling you, Chelsea, just like I’ll never tire of looking at you,” I told her, reaching up and unzipping the zipper of her dress.

Reaching for the straps on her arms, I slid the dress down her body, making sure to touch as much of her as possible. She was left standing in a lace strapless bra and panties that were just a small strip of lace clinging to her hips. I unhooked her bra and let it fall to the floor. Then I pulled her forward and feasted on her breast.

Her head fell back as I teased her nipple in my mouth, running my tongue over it and grazing it with my teeth. My hands spread out over her back and down to her hips. I hooked her panties in my fingers and slid them down her legs. Reaching under her, I slipped two fingers inside her. She was already so wet for me.

Her hands went into my hair, sliding through the strands and holding me to her breast. Damn, I could not get enough of this woman. I removed my fingers long enough to unbutton my shirt and toss it on the floor.

When I leaned back and looked up at her, she had a heated look in her eyes. She looked so fuckable right now, and I could not wait to get my cock buried deep inside of her. I had been rock-hard just thinking about it all evening.

I lifted her in my arms as I had so many times before. Then I turned and laid her down in the middle of the bed. Once the rest of my clothes were off, I joined her on the bed and once again feasted from her body. Her nipples got plenty of attention before I kissed my way down her belly. Her knees fell open, calling for me to kiss her there.

When I had settled between her legs, I reached around her thighs and gripped her hips, holding her to the bed. She knew that I was in control of her pleasure. When I lowered my lips to her, I heard her
