  Dominic lick his lips, leaning in and claiming my mouth with his. Tasting his cum and mine mixed with his warm tongue has me close to the edge. We grip each other close, marking one another as we mate.

  It’s as if Dominic knows how close I am, and he breaks the kiss, leaning down to suck my nipple into his mouth. I feel his sharp teeth graze me, and my over-sensitized skin responds. He moves to the side of my breast, gently scraping his teeth there, making his intentions clear. He’s going to mark me there too.

  I look down and see his neck exposed, and I know now is my chance. My teeth are aching to mark him, and I want to do it as he marks me.

  I lean down and bite him at the same time he bites the side of my breast. The taste of copper hits my mouth. The sensation of shared marking sends us both over the edge. He thrusts hard one last time and fills my body as I squeeze his cock, my orgasm pulsing through my pussy.

  Dominic starts to lick the side of my breast where he marked me, so I lick his neck the same way. I tenderly care for the tiny wound, not wanting my mate to feel any pain.

  He looks up at me with his glowing silver eyes, and I melt at the love there. I see that what he feels for me goes beyond anything I could have imagined. I run my fingers across his hairy chest and then through his hair, petting him and showing him my own love.

  Slowly, he lowers me to the blankets while staying inside me. He thrusts hard into me, and my legs go around his waist, locking behind him. A passion like this isn’t soft and sweet, it’s rough and fiery and all-consuming.

  I’m sure I’ll be sore tomorrow, but right now under the full moon, I want all that he can give me before his body surrenders.

  Chapter 10

  Dominic

  “I thought you said the heat would pass already,” Ruby’s sweet breathy voice moans into my ear as I thrust inside her, her legs wrapped around my waist driving me on, the headboard hitting the wall. It’s a miracle it hasn't broken by now.

  “It has passed. This is just your mate wanting you.” At my words she bites into my shoulder once again, the pleasure sending me over the edge, my release taking her with me as her pussy clamps down on my rock-hard cock.

  Even after multiple attempts, it doesn't seem to want to go down. Not that I blame him with Ruby so close. Not wanting to pull myself from her, I roll us so she’s on top of me, my cock still deep inside her.

  Her body drapes over mine as she continues to take little bites at my chest, making more cum stream from my cock into her. Seems my little mate wants to make sure I’m nice and marked. She may not know what she’s doing, but I love that her possessive side is coming out and that she wants me all marked up for everyone to see. She could cover my entire body with her marks if she wanted, and I’d love every minute of it.

  “If the heat has passed, does that mean shifter sex is always like this? So intense?” I feel her tense at her own question, reminding me how much she doesn't know. But we have the rest of our lives for all that, and I want to ease the thoughts I know she has going through her head.

  “Sweets, I’ve only ever been with you.” Her head pops up, a soft growl rumbling from her chest, my shifter traits showing in her from our mating.

  Her cheeks pinken at the sound of her own growl. “How is that—this—possible?”

  Sitting up, I take her with me so she’s in my lap, straddling me. I let my cock slip free, knowing that if I keep it in her we won’t get much talking done.

  “As you’ve gathered, I’m a wolf shifter.” I don't know why I hold my breath after the words leave my mouth. This is something she knows by now, has known from the moment she entered the cabin.

  “Am I…” Her words hang in the air. I’m not sure if she’s scared of what I’ve changed her into.

  “Only a little. You aren’t fully shifter. Our pups will be, but you won’t do a full shift.” I run one of my hands over her stomach absentmindedly, thinking about the pups that will grow there.

  She tongues her teeth, looking for the canines that slide out when we make love.

  “Your teeth will grow, you’ll get claws, you’ll be faster, stronger, and you’ll heal quicker. It’s nature's way of making sure you can protect you cubs if need be, that you can handle them. Are you mad I didn't tell you all this before we—”

  She cuts me off, pressing her warm plump lips to mine, her sugar sweetness filling my mouth.

  “I think I’ve loved you from the first moment I saw you sitting in that bakery, all grumpy. Something about you…it was like a part of me knew you were mine,” she says, pulling away from the kiss.

  “I know I’ve loved you since I took my first breath on this earth. I’ve been waiting for you my whole life, and I will love you even after this world takes me.”

  Her eyes glisten with unshed tears, making my wolf growl in response, unhappy at the sight.

  “You’re my mate, my everything; I’ll spend my whole life making you happy. I love you, sweets.”

  “I love you too. Even when you drove me crazy.” She gives me a playful smack on my chest.

  “Trust me, it was hard to keep away from you, love. The most bittersweet three weeks of my life.”

  “And now?”

  “Now you’re all mine.” I flip her over, caging her beneath me, my wolf pushing forward, making my eyes turn black.

  “Why, what big eyes you have,” she teases, a smile playing at her lips.

  “All the better to see my beautiful mate with,” I tease back as I roam them over her perfect body laid out beneath me as I slowly slide down her form.

  “Why, what big teeth you have.” Her words are breathy with desire.

  “All the better to eat you with.” Grabbing her thighs, I pull her wide, exposing her pussy, showing her how well I could eat her.

  Epilogue

  Ruby

  Three months later…

  “I’m as big as a house!” I lie in bed with my feet propped up on pillows as Dominic rubs my swollen toes.

  “You look more beautiful every day, sweets.” He’s giving me that sexy smile of his, and all I want to do is spread my legs and press that smile against my pussy.

  He inhales deeply, closing his eyes. “Careful, my mate. You’re due any day now, and we have to be easy. This is your first time carrying our pups, and I want to make sure you stay healthy.”

  “I wish you would have told me that pregnancy only lasts ninety days for shifters.” I rub my huge tummy, feeling our babies move. We were able to find out we were having triplets, boys, and while I almost passed out from shock, Dominic howled with delight. He hasn’t stopped smiling since that day, telling everyone we know, everyone we’ve ever met. He said it’s really rare for a human female to breed that many pups at once, so he thinks he mated me extra hard. That has to be the only explanation.

  “Sometimes it can take longer, depending on the breed of shifter.” He kisses each one of my chubby toes, and I giggle at the sensation. He’s always spoiling me, and I can’t seem to get enough.

  Since the mating moon, life has been a fairy tale. I still own the bakery and manage to work a few days a week. That is when Dominic lets me. Gwen has been amazing, taking over most of the day-to-day operations while I just do the business stuff. She hired on two young local girls to help, and business has been crazy good.

  “Once the boys are born, I’m going to convert the office space next to the bakery into a daycare. Maybe something that the local women can use if they want to go get a coffee and a treat and have a break. I know I’ll want to be able to check on them constantly on the days I need to work.”

  Dominic starts kissing up my legs, and I moan at the feeling. “I’ll be with you and the pups even more than I am now.”

  I giggle at his statement. “You’re always at arm’s reach as it is.”

  Once he reaches the inside of my thighs, he bites me a little, and my body responds instantly. I don’t know what I’d do without him by my side constantly. He’s always with me wherever we go, his wolf cravin
g my body, and my body craving every inch of him.

  “Do you want me further away from you?” He whispers the words against my panties, licking the already damp fabric.

  “Never, my love.”

  I hear his wolf growl low in his chest, his need for me rising. I feel his teeth graze my panty-covered lower lips, and it sends a chill of desire through me.

  “Maybe I can be gentle and give you what we both need.”

  I nod and let my legs fall wider apart. I’m so pregnant that it’s pretty much all I can do—just lie here and take what he gives me. But my mate is the most perfect male that has ever lived, and he makes me feel sexier as each day passes. His passion only fuels our love, and I can’t imagine my life without him.

  When I feel him pull my panties to the side and his warm tongue connect with my center, I close my eyes and give myself over to the pleasure. Dominic owns me—body, heart, mind, and soul. I’d be crazy to fight this kind of love.

  Alexa Riley

  Xavier has watched Gwen for years, sneaking outside her window just to watch her sleep. She calls to him in a way he doesn't understand.

  After he loses his mom and his sister in a tragic accident, he disappears into the woods and lets his wolf take over.

  When Xavier makes his way back to Gray Ridge, one scent captivates him like no other...

  He's on a mission. Claiming Gwen as his mate is all that matters, even if she doesn't remember him.

  What he isn't prepared for is Alpha Stone keeping them apart.

  Warning: This fairy tale contains a hero in desperate need of his sleeping beauty, a heroine who wants to mate with her beast, and an alpha trying to keep it from happening. This is meant to be over-the-top, extra sweet, and lots of fun. Come roll around in it.

  To the hubs; my life, my love, my mate.

  Prologue

  Xavier

  5 years earlier…

  “Why do you watch me?” Her soft voice fills my ears, warming my chest. It reaches places inside me I didn’t even know existed. The sound makes my wolf lie down lazily inside me, like we could drift off just to the sound of her voice. Does she mean when I watch her now, or when she sleeps? It doesn’t matter because either way I don’t know the answer.

  “I don’t know.” I tell her the truth because making up some lie to tell her just seems wrong. I can’t deny that I do it, and telling her that I don’t would be deceiving her.

  She smiles at my response and goes back to doodling in the notebook in her lap. Her blonde hair falls over her face, hiding her crystal-blue eyes. I never knew eyes could be that blue. I like to watch over her when she sleeps, but during the day I like seeing her eyes more. A wolf could get lost in eyes like hers.

  “If my brother catches you, he’ll have your hide.” This time when she looks back up at me, her dimples dip in her full cheeks, and it makes her youth show. I know she’s only sixteen, five years younger than me, but I’ve been watching her since the first time I saw her over ten years ago, and I can’t figure out why. I just do it, and I can’t seem to stop myself.

  She’s right, though. If the alpha catches me, he’ll try to have my hide. ‘Try’ being the operative word.

  “Does it bother you? I could—” I pause. I was going to say I could stop, but that would be a lie. I’m not sure I could stop myself. Something pulls me to her, and being near her is calming. It’s as if everything is right in the world. I spend my days building houses and making sure I’m keeping food on the table for my mother and sister. Since my dad passed over seven years ago, that’s all I do. I make sure they’re cared for and I work. I’m utterly content with that as long as I get a glimpse of Gwen each day. What more could I ask for?

  “No. You’re kinda hot. I like looking at you, too.” Her words are bold, and I find myself blushing. She’s too young to be thinking people are hot. The idea that she thinks about boys or men that way irritates me for some reason. When I’m around her I don’t understand my feelings. I’m calmed and happy, and then I’m confused.

  “I watch you when you sleep, too.” I’m not sure why I confess my secret. The words just tumble out of my mouth like she should know.

  “I know.” She puts her pad down next to her and stands from the porch before making her way towards me. Her fragrance fills my lungs, and I close my eyes just to savor it. When I open them again, she’s right in front of me.

  Even with her wolf shifter genes, she’s still short compared to me. She’ll still probably grow a few inches, not that that would help her when it comes to me. I’m six feet nine, and I’m sure she’ll always be at least a foot shorter than me.

  She reaches up, placing her hand on my bare chest, making my wolf stir as he tries to feel her touch.

  “Would you kiss me?” She takes another half-step towards me, but I take a step back, surprised by her question. Immediately, I miss her smell, and my wolf whines.

  “I can’t.”

  Her hand falls away and I miss the warmth of her touch. My wolf growls in my head when her smile drops away, too. He’s upset she isn’t happy anymore.

  “Why?” Her voice is softer now, not as bold as before.

  “You’re too young to kiss, and I will only ever kiss my mate.”

  She narrows her eyes at me, the blue darkening with irritation “Wouldn’t it bother your mate that you watch me?” She raises her chin like she’s challenging me.

  “I’m here to protect you.” If my protecting her would upset my mate I’d—

  My brain pauses at the idea. I’d still watch her. Maybe I should steal her away, then my mate could never find me. We could live in the wild, and I could watch her all the time. I’d never have to stop.

  “That’s not what I asked.” She places one hand on her hip and cocks her head to the side, waiting.

  “I’ll always watch you.” This makes her smile again, and it warms me on the inside. If only I’d known this would turn out to be a lie.

  Chapter 1

  Gwen

  Present day…

  “God, I would kill to have a place like this.” Winnie flops down on my bed and stretches out.

  “Not much longer and you can,” I remind her as I search through my closet for something to wear to the Fall Street Fair tonight. “You’re saving all your money, right? You’ll be eighteen soon enough and free to do what you want.”

  “Whatever,” Winnie says, the tone in her voice making me turn to look at her. She has lived in Gray Ridge for a few years now with the Stockton family. They took her in after Sheriff Dominic found her out in the National Forest all alone. It took us three days to get her to shift out of bear form. Since that day she’s never shifted back. I can’t imagine what that must feel like, never letting your animal out.

  “Why ‘whatever’? It’s why you started working here to begin with, right? To save up?”

  She rolls to her side, propping her head up on her arm, her gold-brown eyes meeting mine, and she just shrugs. Shrugging doesn’t work for me.

  I took on working at Red’s Goodie Basket full time after Sheriff Dominic mated the owner, Ruby, and knocked her up with three of his pups. I had to hire someone to help me out with the place being as busy as it is. Even with living in the apartment over the bakery, I still couldn’t get it all done on my own, even if I worked day and night. Shifters have a sweet tooth, and they cleared the bakery out daily. So keeping this place stocked is a two-person job.

  “Spill it.”

  “It’s nothing.” She sits up, letting her legs hang over the side of the bed, and looks anywhere but at me. She tries to avoid the question by trying to change the subject. “What are you going to wear?”

&n
bsp; Damn, she knows my weakness. Clothes distract me easily, and I let her have this one because I don’t want to push her. Winnie retreats into herself, and that’s not what I want to happen today. We closed the bakery early, and tonight’s about having fun, something I know she needs. I like to go out and have a good time, but Winnie likes to put her nose in a book and forget the world.

  “I was thinking a sweater dress with some boots.” Dresses are my favorite, and with summer long gone and the chill of winter getting closer, it’s time to put up the summer dresses and break out something new.

  “God, I’d kill to have your legs. I’d wear dresses all the time, too.”

  “You can wear dresses,” I snap at her, harder than I mean to, and it makes her flinch. It’s so subtle that I almost don’t catch it. Then she just rolls her eyes at me like I don’t know what I’m talking about.

  It kills me when she does this to herself. She’s a beautiful girl, but growing up the last few years around wolf girls probably hasn’t helped. We’re lean by nature; it’s just how we’re all built. I can eat all day, every day and still not add anything to my hips. But the downside is a lot of wolf females are also bitches. I’m not sure if that’s by nature or not.

  “Look at Ruby, she’s curvy and Dominic follows her around like a lost puppy. He can’t keep his hands off her.”

  “They’re mates”

  “What’s your point?” I reach for a dress and pull off the one I’m wearing. I slip on the dark blue sweater dress and grab my boots. I walk over and sit next to Winnie on the bed to slide them on.
