REJECTED MATE 70.1
In several hasty movements, he tore off my boots and socks and tossed my trousers over his shoulders. I lay on that bed, panting and naked, save for the tank top still gathered around my waist.Griff snarled. “You’re wearing too much.”“I’ll take it off if you—”Before I could finish that sentence, Griff’s fingernails shifted into claws, and he tore the fabric into half.“Better.” His voice was, husky, animalistic, as though his wolf was close to the surface. “That’s how I want you. Naked and eager.”My breath caught, and I glanced up and locked gazes with Griff to find him staring at me as though I was his prey.Rapid heartbeats fluttered in my chest, not out of fear but out of giddy anticipation. I was about to lose my virginity in this body. This time, it would be with a man who wanted me with no ulterior motive.“Your turn,” I said, my voice breathy. “Take off your clothes.”“You want to see me naked, Cathwulf?” Griff snarled.“Yes,” I hissed.He cupped his crotch. “You want to se

“Feels good?” he said, his voice lilting with a smile.“More,” I cried.With a happy groan, he ran his soft, wet tongue over my nub, down my slit and to my opening. “You taste so good.”I panted, needing him to go faster, harder, but Griff seemed like he wanted to prolong the anticipation. Bucking my hips, I threaded my fingers through his hair and held him in position.He laughed. “My alpha bitch knows what she wants.”“Yes,” I said from between my bared teeth. “And I want it now.”“Cathy.” He circled my clit with his tongue.“Call me that again,” I whispered.“Cathy?”“Yes.” I hummed as he ran languid strokes that I felt across every nerve ending. My thighs trembled, but the rest of my body melted into the mattress.Griff moaned and growled as he pleasured me to a frenzy, his tongue picking up speed to match my accelerating pulse. The sensations were so intense, I thrashed about, but he wrapped his arms around my thighs and held me down.All I could do was lie there and take the ple

“Yours,” I whispered.Griff built up a steady rhythm of strokes that stoked the flames of my arousal. I bucked against him and shivered at the surge of pleasure. Throughout this, he continued staring deeply into my eyes until my vision filled with his wide pupils.Our souls connected. Even though I couldn’t see or hear his thoughts, his emotions poured through the bond. Pride, disbelief, awe, and underneath that, a bone-deep contentment that matched mine. A heartbeat later, our pleasure switched across our bonds, and I felt what it was like to be driving into an impossibly tight channel.My breaths turned shallow, and I dug my blunt nails into the muscles of his shoulders. Molten ecstasy overtook my senses, making my eyelids flutter closed.“Keep eye contact,” he said.“Right.” I forced my eyes open again.“I love you so much,” Griff snarled.“I love you, too.” The words tumbled from my lips, but they were the truth. No man had ever reached beneath my exterior and touched my heart. No

I glanced around, looking for a way to stop Boris from recognizing Griff. The guards at the bottom of the gangway shooed the small crowd backward to make way for the passengers. Griff curled his hand around mine, obvious to the potential danger. I tightened my grip and pulled him closer.“What’s wrong?” he asked with a frown.“There’s someone out here who will recognize you.” I nodded in the direction of the pier. One of the guards held a pair of flags and was directing the people back toward the pavement.“Who?”“Your former beta.”Griff’s head snapped to the end of the walkway, his face breaking into a smile. “Which one is he?”I swallowed hard. There was so much more to my story that I hadn’t told him. Griff knew I’d infiltrated Shifter City as a spy for Hades but had decided to betray him, but he didn’t know that Hades had sent more shifters than just me.My lips tightened into a thin line. I had no idea what Boris was doing here, of all places, or why he was accosting the other p

When we reached the top of the slope, the road bisected a cattle field bordered by a small grove of densely packed trees that stretched fifty feet high. As Boris drove toward them, wards hit my skin like hailstones, progressing to tiny shards of ice that penetrated my skin. Clenching my teeth, I glanced across the back set at Griff, who shuddered.“Dain must have strengthened the wards,” he said.“Hopefully not to detect you,” I muttered.Griff rubbed his chin. “It’s doubtful, considering how long I’ve been dead. But he’s a paranoid bastard who makes lots of enemies. This is probably his way of warning people he’s well protected.”At the other side of the walls, our surroundings changed from vibrant green to sepia. Even the cows grazing on either side of the road seemed sickly. Something about the wards had created a cast of brown across the sky, turning the meadow dreary.I glanced at Griff, my lips parting. “Is this normal?”“It gets worse.” He shifted on his seat and grimaced.The

Malachi swaggered out from the woods and across the graveyard, pausing twenty feet away from Griff.I held my breath and waited for him to make his first move. Gerrison and Dad had taught me all about challenges, guessing that there would be a stream of dickheads thinking a female alpha would be an easy target. In a situation where a potential challenger had crossed into one’s territory, a sensible alpha would show enough of a display of strength to make them think twice about risking their lives.Malachi looked more like a gorilla shifter than a wolf. His bushy eyebrows met in the middle, matching a beard he kept cropped around his angular features like turf. His facial hair widened around his jaw, making it look perfectly square. For all I knew, he could be hiding a pointed chin.The hair on his chest was so thick that it formed a velvet backdrop for the gold rings around his nipples. And it continued down a muscular torso into a pair of skin-tight jeans with the top button undone.

Baring his teeth, he turned on his heel and strutted through the graveyard. The other men followed after him, offering words of encouragement and hefty pats on the back. Only the son remained, and he fixed his gaze on me.I straightened. “Anything you want to say before my mate takes control of the pack?”“You two made a big mistake coming here,” he growled. “If you have any sense, you’ll leave the island on the next rowboat.”“See you tomorrow night,” Griff said with a grin.Malachi’s son glared at us for several heartbeats. I squeezed Griff’s hand, warning him not to rise to his silent challenge. This was the second time the alpha and his inner circle had tried to goad Griff, and I suspected this would be a pattern.“Did you sense anything off about the alpha?” I asked Beki.She tilted her head to the side, saying that she wasn’t sure.“Is he really as strong as he appears?”Beki nodded.My lips tightened. I wasn’t imagining things. Their actions were subtle, but neither the alpha n

I smiled, but it froze halfway toward my eyes. In my old body, I might have been able to last a few rounds against Malachi. Maybe even win if I took advantage of his ailment. This new form I occupied was strong enough, but it hadn’t had years of training with the likes of Gerrison and Dad.Griff spent the rest of the evening dodging and blocking punches from his former beta. When the training got heated, he took off his shirt and fought topless. His glorious muscles rippled as he moved, and it took every effort not to gape at his masculine beauty.There was a small Hatch on the wall, where I ordered refreshments and a box of salts enchanted to heal bruises and soothe aches. I walked around them, making corrections to Griff’s form and urging Boris to hit with all his strength. The real fight with Malachi promised to be brutal.After an hour, Griff’s movements slowed. Both men were sweaty and out of breath.I handed them each a bottle of water and gave Griff a shot of Dragonade. “Good w
