His fingers digging into her hips, pulling her closer, said he didn’t want her to go either.
The fight wasn’t over. War was coming, and she was scared because she’d done this before and knew how bad things could get. But for now, right now, they were okay. That wolf inside of Kade had saved him, and she loved his animal side more for it. Out in the living room, she could hear a football game on, and their friends and family in there cheering and bullshitting each other. They were safe in Kade’s room. He was okay. For tonight, they could just be. Just breathe and smile and touch.
Kade’s dick was swelling between her legs as she rolled her hips against him, and just for fun, she kissed him, nipping his lips because that always got him worked up. Kade groaned into her mouth as he pushed his tongue past her lips. She felt so good, he rammed into her faster, a short jerky rhythm that had his dick begging for release.
“Take your shorts off,” he murmured in her ear before he sucked on her lobe.
She gasped in response, meeting his pelvic thrusts. “But Kade, you’re half-dead.”
“My dick is zero percent dead, woman. Stick it in. I need to feel you.”
“Compromise,” she whispered, dismounting him and sliding her shorts and panties down to her ankles. “I’ll rub on you, and you stay still so you don’t get hurt worse.”
“I don’t feel a fuckin’ thing right now— Oooooooow,” he groaned as she pulled his Harley T-shirt over her head.
“Promise me,” she said.
“Anything you want, just come sit on me.” The way he said it while staring at her tits meant he didn’t even know what he was agreeing to.
Well, hopefully he didn’t die while they were fooling around. That would be an uncomfortable conversation to have with his family.
“Easy,” she murmured, dropping to her knees in between his legs.
“You mean you want this gentle,” he said, his silver eyes zeroed in on her boobs still.
“It’s the only chance I have at gentle with you,” she said. And then she bit her bottom lip and smiled up at him as she ran her nails up his shins and thighs. Kade’s eyes rolled back in his head, and he whispered, “Fuck, Trina, put it in your mouth.”
She was already purring. God, she loved when he told her what he liked, told her what to do. She cupped his balls first and listened to the sigh of ecstasy as he spread his knees wider. And then she gripped the base of his shaft and slid her mouth over him. His groan filled her belly with warmth. She loved how noisy he was. If she did something he liked, he always let her know. So sexy. She sucked on him, sliding up and down his stone-hard dick, only pausing when he rocked with her pace. Easy.
“God, it’s torture,” he murmured breathily. “Feels so good.”
His breath hitched when she started up again, and he rested his hand behind her head and then gripped her hair. Trina reached between her legs and slid a finger inside herself. She was so ready for him. His breathing quickened as she sucked him faster, using her hand to help stroke him each time she eased back.
“Spread your legs wider, let me see,” he gritted out.
Trina spread her knees wider on the floor and moved against her hand as she slid her mouth up and down his shaft. He was so thick, so hard, she wanted him inside her. She could finish so fast on him right now.
“Come here,” he demanded, as if he could read her desperate thoughts.
“Easy,” she pleaded as she crawled on his lap. “Let me.”
She rubbed against the swollen head of his cock a few times and then reached between them, gripped his dick, and poised him right at her entrance. Slowly she eased down an inch, then up, grinning as she teased him. As she teased herself.
“Take it,” he whispered in a shaky breath.
Trina lowered down, down, until she took all of him. She wiggled gently against his pelvis as he whispered, “Fuuuuuuuck.”
One full stroke, and the pressure was already building between her legs. Slowly, she lifted up and then pushed back down hard. Up slow, down hard. Faster now as he gripped her hip with one hand and uttered her name. Up slow, down hard. Up, down, so easy to slide onto him when she was this wet. Kade was so big he filled her, stretched her. Reaching behind her, she cupped his balls, and his dick clenched as he moaned a sound of pure satisfaction.
“Faster,” he said.
She went a little faster.
“Faster, Trina, I’m there. Come with me. Fuck, come with me!”
Trina was there too, her body tingling with desire. She slid onto him harder and faster, panting out his name until he groaned loud against her ear. His dick pulsed deep, deep inside of her, spurring on her own release. She cried out and buried her face in his neck as her body shattered. On and on, he throbbed inside of her as he held her close. “Good girl,” he murmured against her ear. “That’s a good girl.”
She moved on him until every last aftershock was done for them both.
Today she’d thought she would never have this moment with him again, but she did because he was strong enough.
For the rest of her life, she would never take a single moment with him for granted.

“What happened to the wolf?” Kade asked. “Mick?”
The water sloshed as he moved his leg to a more comfortable position. Trina had drawn him a warm bath to clean off all the mud and filth from the day. He was keeping the bandages dry, but the rest of him was submerged and relaxing, muscle by fatigued muscle.
Trina was resting her chin on her arm on the edge of the bathtub, drawing little circles on the surface of the water with her free hand. “I was thinking. I don’t really want to be away from you anymore at night.”
Kade snorted. “You want me to hang out at the bar every night while you work? That’s tempting fate. You know I’ll be in a fight every night if I do that.”
“No, not while I work. I mean sleeping.”
“Trina.”
“Hmmm?” she asked dreamily.
“What happened to Mick?”
She chewed on the side of her lip and moved her damp hair out of her face. She’d showered while he’d soaked. “How do you have a perfect eight-pack when you are relaxing in a tub. It’s pretty unfair to all the other mere mortal men—”
Kade winced as he cupped her cheek. “Hey. It’s me. Talk to me.”
“I thought it was you. That dead wolf. Leah couldn’t tell if it was you or not when she called me, and I rode here thinking I had already lost you. Red Dead Mayhem played cleaner for Mick’s body. I don’t know what they did with him, and I don’t care.”
“Okay.” He stroked the pad of his thumb across her cheek, right under her flaming green eyes. She looked upset, and it gutted him. “I’m all right.”
She nodded for a long time, but she was staring at the water, not him, so he hooked a finger under her chin. “Baby,” he whispered, “I swear I’m all right.”
“I’m really glad you’re a shifter,” she squeaked out.
He laughed. “I think you’re the first one to ever say that to me.”
She laughed thickly, too. “Well, it’s true. If your wolf wasn’t such a stubborn beast, you wouldn’t be here.” She sucked in air and admitted, “I declared war on the Wulfe Clan.”
“Hmm. That’s cool. I declare war on them at least twice a week.”
“No…I mean I officially declared war.”
“What?” Kade sat up in the bathtub, ignoring the pain. “You talked to Darius?”
“Yep, three days, and I’m squaring off with him and his Clan of emotionally devoid hairy bunions.”
“Good God, Woman.”
Trina lifted her little chin in the air and straightened her spine. “Now ask me if I regret it.”
“Oh, I know you don’t, you little hellion.” Kade huffed a laugh. “Dream girl. Look!” He pointed to his dick. “You’ve awoken the sleeping giant again.”
Trina cracked up and rested back onto her arm. “Of course, you would think starting a war is sexy.”
“Nah,” he said softly. “Anything you do is sexy. Tell me why you started it.”
“Because they went after you. You’re mine. I protect what’s mine.”
“You hate fighting.”
