Excerpt:
I grabbed his shirt tightly in my fists. "If I wanted you writhing beneath me, moaning my name, I could have it in a heartbeat."
Pushing him to slam him against the elevator doors, we tumbled forward through the open space, and I landed hard on top of him.
I sat up, my hands still gripping his now torn shirt. Derek flipped our bodies so that he was above me, his crotch grinding against mine. "And if I really wanted to, I could have you begging for this cock."
His head dipped quickly, his mouth pressing tightly to mine, his hands moving to my hair, tugging hard. When I moaned, his tongue once again took over the inside of my mouth, turning me into a writhing mess beneath him.
The elevator doors slid open, and I leaned my head to the side to see Josh standing in the opening. "Looks like some things never change."
"I have a mate.
I marked my mate!
I don't know what came over me. The kiss was so intense, and i could feel it all the way down to my freaking toes. It was amazing, it was everything. I got caught up in the moment, and now I've sealed my fate.
To someone I wish I didn't. He's gonna be the fucking Alpha of our pack. What am i supposed to do with that?
I don't want that responsibility, and I don't need it. I'm not capable of caring about it. So what did I do? Seal. My. Fate."
