  “Did you miss us, Evie?” Rylan asked softly. Evie blushed and looked away. Rylan could scent her sudden arousal and his wolf purred.

  “Yeah, did you miss us Mommy?”

  “Did you? Did you?”

  “Miss us?” the three children asked at the same time. Evie smiled and answered, “Of course, I did. Now come inside. Dinner’’s almost ready.”

  As she readied the children for dinner, Rylan unpacked the SUV.

  During dinner, the children excitedly told her about their trip to the mall. Rylan looked slightly guilty as they mentioned the ice cream. They seemed especially excited about the picnic display.

  “Rylan said we can go on a picnic tomorrow. Can we Mommy? Please?” begged Gabby.

  “Please?” begged Finn.

  “Peas?” begged Max.

  “A picnic? I um…I guess I can go to the store early in the morning.”

  “You don’t have to, Mommy. Rylan already did!”

  “He did?” She turned to Rylan.

  “I’ll take care of everything tomorrow, Evie,” Rylan promised.

  Chapter Twelve

  The next day, Rylan packed the picnic basket while Evie played with the children. An hour before lunch, they headed out. He knew the perfect spot for their picnic.

  They hiked along the trail, walking at a leisurely pace. Before long, they could hear the soft splashing of a waterfall. Excited, the children ran ahead to the picnic spot.

  “Stay away from the water!” Rylan called out.

  Rylan and Evie walked alone for a few minutes before reaching the clearing on top of a small hill. It was breathtaking. Directly in front of them, they could see a small waterfall cascading down a short drop into a small stream. Several boulders lay scattered along the bright green grass and the hill gradually sloped down to the small stream.

  Evie sat on a boulder downwind from Rylan, watching as he set up their picnic. The wind shifted suddenly and Rylan froze. The scent of her arousal surrounded him and his wolf eyes flashed brightly.

  “Come here, Evie,” he demanded gruffly. Evie glanced around. The children were playing by the small stream, excitedly looking for fish and other small animals. Swallowing nervously, Evie replied, “I should go—”

  “Now, Evie!” Knowing she had no choice, she moved closes and knelt on the blanket in front of him. Heart racing, she glanced up at his face. Her eyes widened as she found his wolf eyes studying her intently.

  He closed his eyes and inhaled. She heard his wolf growl and she felt a moment of panic.

  “Rylan, the children—”

  He opened his eyes and moved closer.

  “Rylan?” She whispered.

  “Tonight, Evie,” he promised in a barely recognizable voice. “Tonight.”

  Unable to find her voice, Evie nodded silently. His wolf temporarily satisfied, Rylan whistled loudly and the children came running.

  Knowing she was safe from Rylan’s advances as long as the children were around, Evie relaxed and enjoyed the picnic. They ate delicious food and laughed at Rylan’s stories of his misguided youth.

  While Evie was cleaning up, Max suddenly announced, “Happy Birthday, Mama!”

  “Max!” his siblings admonished.

  Giving her children a confused look, Evie said, “It’s not my Birthday, Sweetie.”

  “Rylan, pe-sent!” Max demanded.

  “Yes, Sir!” Rylan said as he reached into his pocket. He withdrew a small box and gave it to Max. With a large grin, Max gave Evie the box and said, “Happy Birthday to Mama!”

  Taking the box, Evie said, “Thank you, Sweetie.” She opened the box, finding a heart shaped locket inside. She glanced at Rylan, who seemed a bit anxious. She lifted the locket out of the box and opened it. Inside was a small photo of her three children. Her eyes filled with tears. She turned it over and read the inscription on the back. In a fancy script, it said ‘Forever’.

  “Do you like it, Mommy?” Finn asked. Evie nodded as the tears fell.

  “I love it!” They rushed into her arms and Evie hugged them tightly, kissing each child on the top of their head.

  “Can we go play now?” Finn asked. Evie nodded and the children took off. She wiped away the tears and sniffled. Rylan gently took the locket out of her hand and fastened it around her neck.

  “Thank you, Rylan,” Evie said softly. “It’s so thoughtful.” As she turned to face him, Rylan leaned in and kissed her.

  Gently he pressed his lips against hers, savoring her unique taste. He pulled back slightly, giving her a chance to move away from him. Evie caressed his cheek and he closed his eyes, savoring her tender touch. He took her hand, kissing her palm before placing it on his chest, above his pounding heart. They gazed at each other in silence for a few moments before she slowly removed her hand. She moved closer to him, turning so she could see her children. Rylan casually placed his arm around her shoulder and pulled her closer. Evie sighed contentedly as she leaned on him. They sat together in comfortable silence watching her children play by the stream.

  ***

  Rylan stood in front of Evie’s bedroom door and closed his eyes. Her arousal wafted under the door and enveloped him like a cocoon. He knocked loudly on the door. He wouldn’t take her refusal, not tonight. He could hear her on the other side, pacing nervously.

  “Open the door and let me in, Evie.” His deep voice carried through the door and went straight to her womb, making it contract. She nearly moaned with unfulfilled need. She could hear the determination in his voice, knew he would kick down the heavy wooden door unless she complied. Rylan was every bit an Alpha and he would not be denied. With trembling fingers, she unlocked the door and opened it. She stepped back and turned away from him, refusing to look at him. He walked into her room, closed the door and locked it behind him.

  “I’m sorry, Rylan. After everything you’ve been through, I know you don’t need this. I don’t know what’s come over me. It’s been so long since I…I think that’s why I’ve been so….” Rylan pressed his body against hers slipping his arm around her waist.

  Evie sucked in air when she felt his erection pressed against her. She bit her lip and whimpered. Evie wanted him so much; she began to shake with need. Rylan’s wolf eyes glowed in response to her body’s reaction.

  “Never apologize for your desire. We are both adults here, Evie. I know you miss Lucas and would prefer he was here to fuck you but he’s not. I am. Your scent is damn near impossible to resist. I can’’t control myself much longer, Evie. I need to fuck you. Let me, Evie. Don’t torment both of us.” Evie trembled at his words.

  “What about your…mate?” she whispered.

  “She’s as good as dead to me, Evie. She didn’t want me and she never will.” He closed his eyes and rubbed his cheek against her head.

  “I know I will never replace Lucas in your heart, but surely there is room there for me too?” Evie heard the hope in his voice and nodded.

  Rylan doesn’t deserve to spend the rest of his life alone, unloved, untouched. He wants me and I want him. He’s right. We are both adults and I am the only reason we aren’’t already in bed.

  She turned around slowly in his arms and raised her head, nodding. He lowered himself and picked her up. He carried her to her bed and lay her down gently. He stripped quickly, his wolf anxious to join her.

  When she saw the size of his erection, Evie’s eyes widened in shock. She scooted backwards on the bed in a feeble attempt to get away from him.

  “You’re too big! I…I can’t.” She shook her head in denial.

  “Don’t deny me, Evie, please.” Rylan took deep breaths to calm his wolf. “I’ll be gentle with you, Evie, I promise.”

  Trusting him, she nodded and relaxed slightly as he joined her on the bed. Rylan stretched his body over hers, covering her completely. She adjusted her legs so they were on either side of his hips. His erection pressed into her and her wolf eyes glowed when she felt a powerful contraction in her womb. He braced himself
on his forearms which lay on either side of her head. He lowered his head and pressed his lips against hers. Her legs turned to jelly as his mouth moved over hers, his soft lips pressing against hers, his tongue demanding entrance. Unable to resist, she opened her mouth, allowing his invading tongue to enter, brushing against hers. Their tongues dueled as she slid her arms up his biceps, up to his head. He broke their kiss and she turned her head, allowing him access to her neck. He kissed her neck, nipped it then sucked on it roughly. It would leave a mark and anyone who saw it would know he put it there. His wolf growled with satisfaction.

  Rylan slipped lower, rubbing his face over her breasts, over her taut nipples. He nipped one and Evie sucked in a breath as she held his head. His hair was too short to pull and her fingers dug slightly into his scalp. He sat up, held the top of her nightgown and pulled, ripping it open. Lowering his head to her breast, he placed his hot mouth over her nipple and pulled.

  “Aaahhh,” Evie heard herself moan. Cold air hit her wet nipple as he moved to the other one. He bit it gently before sucking on it roughly. Evie felt one of Rylan’s hands skim down her body, over her hip and stop at her thigh. He pulled up her nightgown, over her hips as he continued biting and sucking her nipples. The pleasure pain of his mouth on her nipples made her ache for him. Her womb contracted and she felt strong twinges race across her entire abdomen. Impatient, he pulled hard on her panties, ripping them off. He tossed them aside and moved his hand between her legs. Knowing he was out of control and he would plunge his finger inside of her roughly, she stopped his hand.

  “Wait, wait!” She protested. Rylan stilled.

  “I haven’t since before Max was born,” she confessed.

  “Fuck!” he said as he slammed his fist into the bed. He rolled off Evie and lay beside her.

  “I can’t control myself, Evie. I want you too much. I’ll be rough with you.” Knowing what to do, she placed her hand on his chest, caressing him gently. He grabbed her hand, stopping her.

  “Don’t, Honey. I won’t be able to stop.”

  “Shhhh. I’ll take care of you, Rylan,” she promised softly.

  He released her hand and she lowered it to his erection. She took her time fondling him, caressing him, stroking the long length of him. Her hands felt good on his throbbing cock. So soft and gentle, it soothed him and made him ache at the same time. He was unprepared for her hot mouth on the head of his cock.

  “Evie!” he managed to gasp before her mouth left him speechless. He watched as she licked the slit on his head then slipped the crown back into her mouth and sucked. One hand was wrapped around his cock at the base while the other fondled his sac gently. Her head bobbed up and down then she licked him from tip to base then back up again. She ran her tongue around the ridge then slid him between her lips. Her head bobbed up and down as she sucked him deeper into her mouth. He was large and she managed to get only half of him inside of her. She moved her body so that she could lick the rest of his cock and his hands found their way to her head. He massaged her scalp as she continued to move her hot mouth up and down his cock, pumping her fist the entire time.

  This is better than any fantasy, Rylan thought as he watched his cock disappear into her mouth. The sight of her lips on his cock pushed him over the edge and he barely got out a warning, “Evie…,” before he groaned as he spurted in her mouth. She swallowed some of his seed, but it was too much. She raised her head and he finished over her arms, his thighs and on the bed. She was shocked at the amount of his release. It was nearly twice as much as her mate’s. She wondered if it was because he was an Alpha.

  Rylan lay momentarily dazed as Evie took off her nightgown and folded it neatly before setting it on the edge of her bed. She moved to lie next to him, placing her head on his massive chest. She curled into him as his breathing returned to normal. Her arousal wafted around them, tickling his nose.

  “Evie—”

  “It’s ok, Rylan. I know you need some time to recover.” Rylan rolled her onto her back and kissed her gently. Leisurely, he kissed his way down her neck, around her breasts. He stopped to nibble and suck on her nipples before moving down her belly. She panicked when she realized where he was headed.

  “Rylan, don’t.” Rylan stopped and looked up at her, puzzled. “I…it’s ok, you don’t have to do that. We can just have sex when you’’re ready.”

  “Don’t you want me to? I’m dying to taste you, Evie.” Disbelieving him, she shook her head.

  “It’s okay, I know you don’t want to. It’s fine. Really.” Rylan sat up and positioned himself over her. Holding her face in his hands, he forced her to look at him. He scented her pain, hidden deep beneath her arousal.

  “What’s wrong, Honey?” he asked softly.

  “Nothing.” She clamped her lips, reluctant to say it. Rylan studied her face.

  “Why would you think I wouldn’t want to lick you? To taste you?”

  Knowing he wouldn’t let it go, she shut her eyes and answered, “Lucas never liked it…he hated doing it.” She felt a sharp pain in her heart. She loved her mate but he never enjoyed doing that to her. She knew she wasn’t sexy, unlike other women he had known. He’d done it with his ex-lovers. She had overheard at least one of his ex-lovers brag about his oral skills. She wasn’t a fool. She knew that if Lucas’ wolf hadn’t recognized her as his mate, he never would have chosen her. She was too plain, unlike his beautiful ex lovers. Her heart felt another sharp stab and Rylan scented her growing pain. The enticing scent of her arousal had vanished, replaced by the pungent scent of her pain.

  Evie was full of doubt and felt embarrassed for performing oral sex on Rylan. She feared he would feel obligated to reciprocate and like Lucas, he would hate it, too. He would probably never touch her again, thinking she would want him to do it all the time. She wouldn’t ask him to, she vowed, just like she never asked Lucas, though he occasionally asked her to pleasure him orally.

  Rylan was astonished that her mate had not enjoyed pleasuring her orally. He positioned his body at her feet, spread her legs and licked her. Evie gasped and protested. She didn’t scent of fear, so he ignored her protests and pushed his tongue into her satin channel.

  Her mate was a fool, he thought as he tasted his delicious Evie. Her taste was potent and he felt heady as he plunged his tongue deeper inside of her.

  “Mmmmm.” The rumbling sound of his pleasure caused pleasant vibrations and her clit tingled.

  Evie tastes like a woman should, her natural juices flowing, undiluted by scented body washes. Evie is the daughter of an Alpha pair. Perhaps her potency could only be appreciated by an Alpha? He stopped thinking and enjoyed his Evie’s sounds of pleasure.

  Hungry for her taste, Rylan devoured her. Evie felt the tension building as his tongue caressed her inner walls and his thumb teased her clit. Soon his mouth was on her clit, sucking gently, licking her roughly while his finger slid into her.

  “Oohhhhh,” Evie moaned. Rylan slid his finger in and out faster and faster then suddenly replaced it with his tongue. He pressed his tongue in as deep as it could go, fucking her with his tongue as he would his cock. Evie’s panting increased and she felt like she was riding a wave. Rylan licked her clit then returned his tongue to her wet channel. He rubbed her clit harder and increased the rhythm of his tongue as it plunged into her. The wave built and crested, came crashing down as she orgasmed.

  “OOHHHHH!” she groaned. Evie grabbed the sheets as she arched her back, body convulsing while her channel contracted over and over again.

  Rylan raised his head so he could watch her orgasm while slipping his fingers inside of her. Her smooth channel convulsed around his fingers, massaging them gently. Her breathing slowed and her face was flushed. He moved so he was lying on top of her then began kissing her gently. She tasted her potent juices and blushed.

  “I…I didn’t know it was so strong…you don’’t have to—”

  “Shhhh,” Rylan commanded as he pressed his finger across her lips. “I enj
oyed it, my delectable Evie. I plan on doing it often. You wouldn’’t deny me that pleasure, will you Evie?”

  How could she resist that deep sexy voice? Speechless, she shook her head. She would never refuse her Alpha, she would never deny him.

  Pleasuring Evie had aroused him and he was once again fully erect. He shifted and pressed his erection against her. Evie spread her legs wider and he slid into her unhurriedly. She sighed when he sheathed himself fully inside of her. Rylan withdrew, inch by inch and returned just as slowly. He pumped his hips at a leisurely pace, allowing the tension to build. Keeping one hand under her head, he caressed her calf and thigh as he kissed her gently. Rylan’’s tongue ran across her lips, delving inside her mouth.

  Evie slid her arms around him, caressing his muscular arm and back. One hand slipped between them and she toyed with his nipple, rubbing and pinching it. Rylan increased his pace, pumping his hips faster and harder. Evie began to moan. Rylan raised his head, breaking their kiss.

  “I’m the only one that will fuck you, Evie.” He pumped his hips hard and fast. She nodded and threw her head back.

  “That feels so good. Don’t stop, Rylan. Please, don’t stop.” He needed to hear her say it. He pumped harder, faster, causing the headboard to slam into the wall. Thump! Thump! Thump!

  “Say it, Evie. Say I’m the only one that will fuck you.” His wolf would accept nothing less.

  “Yes, Rylan, Yes. Only you, Only you, OOOOOOHHHHHH!” Evie hugged him tight as she rocked her hips against his and unimaginable pleasure spread throughout her body. Stars exploded behind her eyes and she felt her channel squeeze his cock over and over again. Suddenly he pumped his hips even harder and she knew he had emptied himself inside of her.

  Rylan gazed down at Evie, enjoying the sated look on her face. He smiled and kissed her before sliding out of her gently and lay on his back beside her. Evie rolled over and placed her head on his chest, throwing one leg over his. His left arm curved around her back and he tucked his right arm under his head. Rylan felt…content…happy. Even his wolf was pleased.
