Epilogue
Three weeks later
Shannon laughed and ducked under Anton’s arm when he lunged at her. “You missed me.”
He grinned. “In more ways than one. I couldn’t stop thinking about you while I visited my dad. The past two hours seemed as though a week passed. I want you.”
She paused by their brand-new bed to grin at him. “Come and get me then.” She lifted the hem of her skirt enough to show him her bare thighs. “Want to guess what I’m not wearing?”
His sexy gaze lowered. “Want to guess where I’m about to put my face to find out?”
She inched the skirt higher to reveal more thigh. “How is your father?”
“He’s growing stronger.” He tore his shirt over his head. “Our doctor assures us he’ll make it. He should be able to take the pack back in less than a month.”
“And your mother?”
“My grandfather has her. He’ll make sure she isn’t able to cause any more trouble.” He bent to remove his boots. “Enough talk.” He opened the snap of his jeans. “I’ve done my family duty today. Now it’s all about us.”
“I like that.” She licked her lips. “I love it when you look at me like that.”
He shoved his jeans down his thighs and pure lust gripped Shannon at seeing him completely stripped bare. Anton had to be the sexiest male who ever walked the earth and he was her mate.
“I’m about to love you a hell of a lot.”
She backed up until her legs touched the edge of their new bed. “Sounds fun.”
He stalked toward her and paused just inches away. He surprised her when he suddenly dropped to his knees and grabbed one of her legs. He lifted it, careful not to make her lose her balance, and settled the curve of her knee over his broad shoulder. His gaze lowered to her p-ssy in front of his face. A soft growl rumbled from his throat.
“No panties, kitten?” He gripped her skirt, shoved it higher, out of the way, and leaned in. “And you’re wet. Have I mentioned how I love your scent and taste? I’m addicted to you.” He opened his mouth and licked her *.
Shannon grabbed for one of the bedposts with one hand and held her skirt out of his way with the other. “That feels so good.”
He lapped at her and the vibration started inside her chest at the pleasure his mouth created. The purrs coming from her were something she had grown accustomed to. She only experienced that it when Anton made love to her or caressed her after sex. It seemed to turn him on more so she’d stopped trying to resist the urge when it struck.
He suddenly stopped teasing her * and she met his gaze when he grinned at her.
“What?”
“You’re my purrfect mate.” He mimicked the sound she’d made when he said it.
She laughed. “I guess I am. You’re a grrrreat mate,” she growled at him.
He suddenly rose, chuckling. Her leg over his shoulder caused her to fall back onto the bed as Anton came down on top of her. “We’re a hell of a pair, aren’t we?”
Her hands caressed his face. “We’re purrfect.”
He laughed again. “Ready to purr for me, kitten?” He nudged her with his cock.
“Ready to howl for me, baby?”
His mouth came down on hers. Shannon wrapped her legs around his waist and slid her fingers into his silky hair as the kiss deepened. She’d take that as a yes.
