"𝐅𝐮𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥," Zane finally gave in before smashing his lips right back against my own, kissing me with expertise. He pressed me up against the tree, stealing my wrists and pinning them atop my head against the bark. I melted against his body in response to his kiss, instantly responding to his kiss, shuddering when his thigh slid up between my legs. "Zane..." "Shhh," he shushed softly, his body imprisoning mine, as he drew closer to me. "Just let me make you feel good tonight." ❦ Spencer had long accepted the lonely fate the Moon Goddess dealt her-the only mateless she-wolf of the White Crescent pack. Instead, her fate remained with the quiet nature of her wolf and the pack she protects. But when a trespasser breaks into her territory, everything she thought she knew shatters. Zane is no ordinary wolf. He's charming and anything but innocent, yet his presence makes Spencer's instincts flare-for better or worse.

"Shhh... take it like the good girl you are." "I'm a good girl?" I whispered. He gazed up at me, eyes glowing in amusement. "Do you want me to prove it to you?" My eyes glistened with his reflection. "I can prove it to you," he answered, "but I'll be mean about it." "How can you prove it to me...?" I asked him. He smirked. "Ahh, you're too innocent for your own good. Do you even recognize what I'm doing right now?" My eyes glittered. He smiled wickedly. "This." I gasped when something slid into a spot that had been left cold for years, catching the comforter to try to hold something as he started torturing me. "What did I say?" he responded, smiling up as I tried to breathe. "What did I say?" "Take it like a good girl," I responded. "Are you a good girl?" he asked me. I nodded numbly, trying to keep my composure. His eyes darkened with mischief. "Then prove it." When a girl who's secretly naughty meets a boy who's outwardly bad.

He chuckled out, licking his lips. Valentino grabbed her hips, turning her towards him as his eyes settled on her breasts. Slowly, his eyes trailed up to meet her eyes. "Anastasia.
