Kindle Notes & Highlights
He was going to get himself hit if he kept using that patronizing tone.
He pressed his lips against mine. I ran my hands through his hair and the world faded away as I melted into the kiss. He had this ability to wipe away all thoughts. All I wanted was more. Of him. I moaned and his hands squeezed my hips as he pulled me closer. When we finally moved apart, we were both out of breath.
For once, it wasn’t my own fear I was feeling. It was Dastien’s. I couldn’t imagine what would make him so afraid, but whatever it was, I wanted it gone.
Wolf-Dastien ran his nose over every inch of me. He growled when he got to my hand and then licked it. And then sneezed on it.
I grinned. “Best gift ever. I can’t wait.” “It was kind of a selfish gift. I wanted to go dancing with you.” “Feel free to be that kind of selfish whenever you want.” I pulled him down, and pressed my lips to his. He lifted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist. The feel of him against me was all-consuming. Heat raced through my body as my tongue brushed his. I squeezed my legs tighter around him and he nipped my lip.
Everyone on campus knew that the only person to freak out the ever-steady Dastien Laurent was his mate.
I could almost see the steam coming from Dastien’s ears as rage boiled along our bond.
“Thank you,” I said when our lips were almost touching. “For what?” “For being you.”
There was nothing sexy about a guy wearing a clothes pin, but the way he walked, so confidently, without making a sound, he almost made it work. Almost, but not quite.
“I can’t tell if that’s uber creepy or kind of sweet…I’m leaning toward creepy.”
“Hey,” Dastien said, holding onto my hand before I could fully roll out of bed. “What?” “I really liked having you here.”
Dastien started to growl and I elbowed him. I instantly regretted it. It was like hitting granite. I rubbed my elbow, trying to gain the feeling back.
Hell, I was more than fine. I was a fucking wolf.
His answering grin made my legs weak. His dimples appeared, like magic, showing me how happy he was. He leaned in, brushing my lips softly with his before pulling away. “Je t’aime, cherie,” he said before kissing me deeply.
He ran his hand lazily up and down my spine as he spoke. It made me want to purr with contentment.
He was everything I wanted. “You sure you want me forever?” I asked. I opened myself to the bond so I could feel what he was feeling. “Absolutely.” No hesitation or question.
Donovan shot Meredith a look that was so strong, it made me blush. I couldn’t stop the stupid grin that spread across my face even if I tried.
Dastien leaned over, brushing my hair away from my face. The look in his eyes told me he knew what I was thinking. “Eat, cherie. Then we can be alone again.” The way he said “alone” sent shivers down my spine.
I took a bite of pot roast and moaned. This got me a double eyebrow raise from Dastien. Now, if only I could get you to make that noise when we’re alone. My face couldn’t have burned brighter.
