Claws and code

Body Guard

Walking into the house, Arthur linked my siblings to remain silent. Mum cooed over me and lightly brushed my hair to the side. I cracked my eyes open a bit and she obviously thought she had woken me. 'Go back to sleep, Pumpkin. You're home now.'

'Just an hour. Maybe two.' I replied but my voice was slightly slurred and my eyes were already drooping closed again. Arthur didn't get a chance to tell Jack which one my room was because mum was quick to tell him, in the link, I would need to be taken to the guest room. My own room was probably the only place where things smelled human. The hoodies I wore were part of what altered my scent to that of the Lycans I lived with. So, Arthur led Jack to the guest room with mum while I was still in his arms, smiling deliriously now. The thought that he would find out, in my room, that I was human amused me. Then I frowned. Some Lycans didn't have a high opinion of humans. What if he was one of them? The frown apparently happened when he had tried to put me down because Arthur chuckled. 'She's always been a hugger. Guess you're comfy.'

In the family link mum told Arthur that this was the man that had caught my interest when I had spied on the strangers in my domain. She told him to order Jack to stay with me after she argued that I deserved a bit of male attention in my life, I was after all only human, and Jack seemed like he really cared about me. Dad growled but did as his mate told him. Jack's arms wrapped around my waist as he laid down behind me while my amazing, adoptive parents closed the door behind them. I started to drift off but Jack kissed my neck, rubbing his face gently down the side of my face. I wanted to be awake for him and I turned in his arms.

'Go to sleep, Sweetheart.' He told me when I tried to fight sleep to look at him. His lips whispered softly over mine. 

'Just don't leave me.' I mumbled as sleep pulled me under. His voice was barely a whisper but I could swear I heard him reply. 'Never.' That was probably wishful thinking.

The feelings that awoke me were heavenly. A hand gently ran up and down my back, to my hips, my thigh, almost to my knee and back up, skimming my butt, under my shirt and up my spine right to the base of my neck. Then there were the butterfly kisses that were peppered over my jaw and down my neck when the hand went back down. A moan escaped me and a chuckle replied. The lips stopped.

'No! You can't stop!' I complained sleepily. The hand stopped on my hip and pulled me against a hard body. He groaned when I moaned at the lovely feeling and the lips returned. A little nip at my jaw, a wet tongue tracing the shell of my ear, kisses and a hint of teeth down my neck. My back arched and my head moved to give those divine lips better access.

The lips stopped and I finally opened my eyes to glare at Jack. 'You are not allowed to wake me up like that!' I informed him with a frown while I turned to face him.

He looked like I killed his best friend and told me huskily. 'Why ever not? I love kissing you. Goddess help me, the feeling of your skin under my hands. I want nothing more than wake up with you in my arms every morning, the only thing that would make it better would be if it were in my bed... and we were naked.'

'Well. I don't want to wake up like this!!' I complained, frowning more when he moved himself further away from me.

To stop him from leaving me, I grabbed his collar and reeved him closer. My lips weren't gentle or sweet like his had been. I couldn't understand the attraction I felt for this Lycan and my rationale mind tried to intervene, reminding me that he had a mate somewhere. My feelings however, wholeheartedly agreed that naked, every morning, was better indeed. 'Because you stopped and I need more.' I explained, barely removing my lips from his.

He didn't take more than a split second before he replied to my lips. He rolled on top of me, taking control of our kiss. The weight of him on me had me arching up to bring us closer. His lips, his hands, his hips, they all worked together to drive me crazy. I wrapped my legs around his waist to bring him even closer. Feeling his length between my thighs I mentally cursed our clothes and pulled his hair a bit out of frustration.
