  “And then you found me,” Jacob stated, as if that were the end of it all. “I promise this isn’t some joke or dare. You’re the nicest, kindest person I’ve ever met and more beautiful than any woman in Hollywood.”

  Sage couldn’t help but laugh at that. “Don’t be ridiculous, you know that’s not true.”

  “It’s true for me,” Jacob insisted.

  Sage studied his eyes and instantly sobered.

  He meant it.

  Before she could lose her courage, Sage reached up and pulled his face down to hers, kissing him like she’d imagined so many times over the last few weeks. She took her time to explore his lips until they became nearly as familiar as hers.

  Jacob groaned when she slid her tongue into his mouth, tasting him like he’d tasted her. The sound of his need, and the feel of it between her thighs was almost too much. Sage couldn’t help the way she pressed up against him. Nothing but one thin slice of fabric separating them.

  Then it was gone and the feel of his body against hers was all she could think about. His skin on hers, the weight of him covering her, and the hard length between her thighs.

  Jacob held her face gently with one hand, and the other traveled down her arm, over her breast, and down even further to grip her ass tight. It was everything she’d daydreamed about and then some.

  Sage deepened the kiss, holding onto his shoulders tight.

  When he pulled back, she nearly begged him not to stop.

  “Are you sure?” Jacob asked, searching her eyes. “Once we get physical the bond will tighten. Any separation will be painful. If you decide this isn’t what you want…”

  It would hurt. It could kill him.

  But Sage had no intention of denying whatever this thing between them was. Jacob was a dream come true and even if he had crazy wolves after him and he occasionally howled at the moon…

  He was the nicest guy she’d ever met. It certainly didn’t hurt that he was also the most attractive.

  “I’m sure,” she insisted. “I’ve wanted this for a long time.”

  Jacob’s smile turned wicked. “I’m going to taste you first, then I’m going to make you scream my name,” he promised.

  Her breath caught and Sage’s thighs quivered as he slid down.

  What exactly had she gotten herself into?

  Sage

  When his hot mouth covered her pussy, Sage felt herself bow off the bed, hands fisting in the sheets. It sent an electric shock through her entire body and all she wanted was more.

  A gentle lick made her moan and part of her couldn’t believe this was really happening, and the other part was ready to beg for more – to feel him inside.

  She was greedy and she knew it, but Sage couldn’t help it. Having him take her had been her number one fantasy for the last few weeks and she was desperate and hungry for him in ways she’d never been for anyone else.

  “Christ, you’re already so wet and ready,” he rumbled against her, sending another shiver through her body. “And you taste so sweet.”

  It was weird to hear, and yet it turned her on. Sage spread her thighs to give him more room, watching as he licked from one end to the other. Then he spread her own fluids over her lips and clit.

  Shit, she wanted him so bad she could barely take it. Sage didn’t want to wait for him to decide he was ready to take her. She wanted Jacob now.

  “Jacob, please,” she begged, lifting her hips as he sucked on her. “You can prove your prowess to me another time.”

  His grip on her thighs tightened – the only thing that let her know he’d even heard her as he licked and sucked with a fervor that had her on the edge and shaking before she could say another word.

  “Please,” she managed, trying to pull him up.

  All she succeeded in doing was pull his hair as the pleasure built and she pressed up into his mouth.

  It was hot and wet and felt so good she knew it would shatter her when that orgasm finally hit.

  Jacob was so attuned to her he stopped just as she was about to come, moaning and writhing underneath him.

  “Your wish is my command,” he murmured, licking her one last time before sitting up on his knees.

  Sage looked up at him, memorizing the muscles in his thighs and the lines they made as he flexed and shifted. His ass was round and taut and made her want to dig her nails into the flesh to push him deep inside of her.

  The eight pack of abs was as glorious as she’d imagined and Sage reached up to trace the lines, enjoying the breadth of his chest and shoulders. Jacob was beautiful. His brown hair nearly black and his normally brown eyes glowed silver as he watched her admire him.

  Her eyes fell to the thick, hard length of him. Jacob’s cock was just as impressive as he was, pre-cum glittering at the tip as he took his time, letting her look at him. One of his large hands wrapped around the base and Sage licked her lips.

  Next time she’d taste him.

  Right now, she needed him inside her.

  Reaching for him, she gently slid her hand over his cock and wrapped her fingers around him. He was so big she knew it would take some getting used to, but Sage had no doubt in her mind that he’d be gentle unless she asked him otherwise.

  A slight tug and he smiled, falling forward and catching himself so he hovered just a few inches above her. Sage was breathing hard, aching for him, desperate as the tip pressed against her entrance.

  He didn’t move. Jacob seemed content to watch her squirm as she tried to press up so he’d slide inside.

  “Please,” she begged again. “I need you.”

  His silver eyes flashed and slowly Jacob pressed inside, allowing her the time she needed to stretch so she could take him.

  Sage had never felt anything quite like it. Her eyes rolled into the back of her head as the delicious sensation rippled through her. For the first time in her life she felt full – complete.

  Jacob’s hips met hers when she’d taken all of him. He didn’t move at all as her body adjusted. It was the most erotic thing to have him looking down at her with those silver eyes, deeper inside her than anyone had ever been before as she pulsed around him.

  She needed more. She needed that friction. Sage wanted him to take her hard. Her body demanded everything at once and it made her lightheaded and desperate.

  Rolling her hips, she pulled him down and kissed him, nipping his bottom lip slightly, wiggling her hips, and arching her back into him – anything to get him to move.

  Jacob growled at that and pinned her arms down, sliding his tongue in her mouth, ravaging her without once shifting. “I don’t want to hurt you,” he said – voice deep and gravelly. He was breathing hard and that only made her need worse.

  If she could flip him over, she would so she could ride him until he lost his mind, just like he was doing to her. But Sage could feel the strength in his arms – a strength no human possessed. If she was able to flip him over it was because he wanted her to.

  “You won’t hurt me,” she promised. “I trust you.”

  And she did. Without question. Sage knew it was too soon to feel so strongly about this, but she knew in her heart Jacob would take care of her, protect her, and she could trust him with anything.

  It had to be the bond he was talking about, but she knew it went both ways.

  Jacob felt the same way about her, and that was something she was still trying to wrap her head around – even if she could somehow feel its truth.

  Slowly he pulled out and she gasped. Her body was wrapped around him, holding on tight. Her legs went around his waist, urging him on. When he finally thrust forward the sensation struck her, shocking her entire body and she arched up as the pleasure spiked.

  She needed more. “Faster,” she urged.

  Her mind was putty as he obliged, breathing in harsh pants as she met him stroke for stroke. Sage groaned, her entire body taut as the pleasure built and built. She thought for sure she’d come already, but Jacob somehow prolonged t
he experience until she thought she was going to explode.

  Jacob released her arms and she dug her nails into his ass, holding on tight as he took her faster, thrusting in and out and each stroke shot through her. Every muscle tightened as she just couldn't take any more.

  Her scream as the orgasm ripped through her would have been embarrassing if she had the brain cells to think and reflect. But all Sage knew was the pleasure and the feel of Jacob on top of her.

  His name on her lips was a whispered prayer as she shattered around him, unable to do anything but hold on as he took her. Sage urged him deeper, taking everything she could from him, riding the wave of her orgasm for as long as she could.

  “Jacob,” she breathed. “Come with me?”

  His answering growl sent a second ripple through her, less aggressive than the first, but no less mind blowing. Her vision sparked as he pressed into her one last time, the spurts of his cum making her muscles contract all over again.

  Sage milked him, riding him through the orgasm as she slowly came down.

  Her nails were deep in his ass and she was sweaty and breathing hard. But Jacob didn’t give her any time to feel weird about it. He savagely took her mouth, nipping her bottom lip. His tongue in her mouth made her groan again, somehow wanting more even after that impressive display.

  “Mine,” Jacob growled.

  And Sage couldn’t agree more.

  Jacob

  The dark room relaxed him. The smell of sex, Sage, and him intertwined had settled his wolf. Jacob’s scent was all over her. Slowly their scents would combine over time until the bond was accepted and permanent.

  If he were honest with himself, he had no intention of making this a temporary situation – even though his past wasn’t the cleanest and his future was murky at best.

  Jacob didn’t know if this new world Kai had created would last. He didn’t know if the Blue Mountain Pack would survive the war that was to come, and he didn’t know how he was going to keep Sage safe through all of it.

  She was so vulnerable and human. Even if she accepted the bite, Jacob knew she was a submissive. Fighting would be difficult for her, but she had a quiet strength he admired.

  Kissing her neck settled him even further. The sweetness of her soap only enhanced her natural scent and he couldn’t get enough of it. Jacob felt like an addict, smelling her all the time.

  Sage made a cute little sleepy noise and Jacob pressed his whole body against hers.

  They’d fallen asleep naked and now he was seeing the advantage.

  Jacob pressed a kiss to the back of her neck where that smell of mate was. Then he kissed her between the shoulder blades, running his hand over her breasts, down her stomach, and between her legs.

  The hungry, desperate look in her eyes the night before was something he would never forget for as long as he lived. Jacob had never been so turned on, so out of his mind with lust and something else he’d never had with his partners – feelings.

  What he might even call love.

  She still wasn’t really awake, but her thighs shifted to make room for him unconsciously. Gently he rubbed her clit, making slow circles. Every once in a while, he’d slide down to feel the delicious wetness coming from her center. The smell of it drove him wild, but he bit his lip hard and gently slid a finger in.

  Then he slid in a second, pressing up to hit the G spot. His thumb found her clit and he went to work on that too.

  His dick was so hard it hurt, but Jacob kissed the freckles on her shoulder and kept his pace slow and easy. They had all the time in the world, and he was going to take advantage of it while he could.

  Sage was his.

  Her deepthroated groan as he slid in a third finger nearly made him lose his careful control. His wolf went wild and the urge to claim her was so strong he bit his own arm to keep from marking her.

  What he hadn’t expected was for her to roll over and straddle him all in one move.

  Sage’s eyes were hazel again, almost green in the morning light. The desire in her eyes as she held his cock had Jacob on the edge and ready to come if he wasn’t careful.

  She sank down on him in one fluid motion and Jacob bit his tongue until he tasted blood to keep from coming.

  “It’s not fair to tease,” she murmured, rocking her hips slightly.

  Seeing her from this angle, watching her take him with such confidence, Jacob knew he wasn’t going to last long. He grabbed her hips and thrust upward, making sure to hit just the right spot as he ground her against him.

  She threw her head back and the desperate desire in her voice when she whispered his name made him wild. Sage was his. She was his mate and he wasn’t going to let anything, or anyone take her from him.

  It took very little of his strength to lift her up and slam her down on top of him. She clenched around his dick, making his eyes roll back with the sensation. Her body around him was all he wanted.

  But he wanted to hear her scream first.

  Jacob helped her ride him, gritting his teeth to hold off until he felt the flutter of her muscles. He watched as she took her pleasure from him. He pressed up again. She was on the edge and he wanted to push her over, he wanted to hear those sounds she made again.

  On his next thrust he sat up and took one of her breasts in his mouth, sucking hard on the nipple as he tweaked the other. Her hands gripped his shoulders as she rode him through her orgasm.

  The sound of her screams as she held onto him was too much. Jacob held her tight and roared as he came, the sensation too much for him to process fully. She was all around him, holding him together, holding him close, keeping him sane.

  Sage was his whole world and she was all that was holding him in this form.

  She kept his past at bay. Jacob buried his face in her chest, the silky feel of her breasts against his cheeks calmed him. Somehow, she was keeping him calm despite the panic he felt right on the edge of his thoughts.

  “Hey, is everything okay?” Sage asked, stroking his hair as they both came back down to earth.

  Jacob didn’t bother lying to her. He knew she’d be able to sense it, either through that weird sixth sense she had or the mate bond. He shook his head slightly and sighed.

  He was going to have to tell her everything whether he liked it or not. Sage would think whatever was bothering him was because of her if he didn’t, and he refused to let her doubt the bond for even a second.

  “I wasn’t always this nice,” he confessed. “I worry how my world will affect you, what you’ll think of me once you know about my past…” he trailed off and softly kissed her lips.

  Jacob didn’t know what to tell her really. There was too much to explain, too much shit she really didn’t need to know about.

  Gently he set her down on the bed and extricated himself from her even if that was the last thing he wanted to do.

  He needed to get cleaned up, to call his Alpha, to figure out what the hell he was going to do about those wolves, and how he was going to keep them away from Sage.

  Jacob went into the attached bathroom and turned on the shower. It was hard not to notice the lack of amenities Sage had in her apartment. It was barely even functional, and yet she didn’t seem to mind at all.

  There were only two towels, toilet paper, and a drawer full of makeup. The first aid kit and a few other feminine items he couldn’t identify were in the medicine cabinet.

  All she had was her mattress in her bedroom and the space heater. Jacob hadn’t seen the inside of her closet, but he could guess she only had what she’d been able to fit in her car with her.

  Seeing the state in which she lived made him feel fiercely protective and possessive.

  He stepped into the hot spray and sighed as it nearly burned his skin off.

  Everything in him wanted to take Sage far away from this place. The only reason the Cascade wolves hadn’t come knocking on her door was because of how deep in Blue Mountain territory her apartment was.

 
The apartments were right next to the grill and the auto shop. If Cascade wanted to take over, they had to be careful how much they disturbed the human locals.

  Arms wrapped around him and Jacob suddenly felt like he could breathe a little bit easier.

  “Talk to me,” she murmured against his back. “I’m not going anywhere.”

  The mate bond was the trippiest thing he’d ever experienced. Somehow it let him feel what she was feeling, and Sage was so attuned to him it was scary. Jacob was a mess and he didn’t want that affecting her.

  “A year ago, Kai came back,” he told her. Might as well get this part over with before they both got in too deep and there was no going back. “He was gone for about a decade doing some soul searching. See, the pack took him in when he was a little kid. He has no idea who his parents were.”

  Jacob remembered it like it was yesterday. Kai had grown up with them, back when the old Alpha had run things. Barney had been like a dad or a grandpa to all of them. He’d been fair and honest.

  The pack had been well taken care of, the members of the ‘group’ had been well respected, and as much a part of the local society and community as shifters hiding among humans could be.

  “Kai left when he was eighteen,” Jacob explained, closing his eyes as Sage rubbed soap on his back. “Not long after that our Alpha died without any born alpha to take over. His Second led as Alpha for a while but didn’t really have the head to lead.”

  He sighed and put his hand against the wall, wishing the hot water could burn the last ten years away. “That’s when things started going bad.”

  “Heather told me a little about it, but she wouldn’t go into details,” Sage admitted. Even her gentle touch on his ass, the backs of his thighs, and his calves weren’t enough for Jacob to turn around and return the favor.

  He was ashamed of the way those years had changed him.

  “Yeah, well the locals didn’t make it through that decade unscathed either,” he muttered. “Everything got messed up.
