pulled off his helmet and smoothed his tangled dark He off his forehead, staring hungrily at her naked breasts.
"All right, what?"
She closed her eyes, hoping he wasn't going to make herbeg*Don't leave me alone tonight. I'll...do whatever you want"
Jacob got off the bike without a word. He covered it and Came toward her, his face implacable. If she'd hoped that her surrender would soften him, she had hoped in vain.
A tiny muscle twitched in his jaw as he stared at her body, the only sign of emotion she could detect. Rain beaded on her pale breasts. He cupped them in his big hands, roling the tight, puckered buds of her nipples between his fingers. He made a harsh, wordless sound deep in his throat and his hands grasped her shoulders, forcing her to her knees.
Her face was level with the fierce bulge in his jeans. He wound her hair around his fingers and unbuckled his belt.
She gasped. "Here?"Right here.""But anybody could just walk by-""You' re just going to have to hope nobody walks by, if that bothers you. He tore open the buttons of his jeans, and his heavy, swollen penis sprang free. It was flushed adeep angry red, veins bulging on the stuff hard shaft."Jacob--""Suck me, Annie," he demanded, staring down into her eyes.Hunger radiated from him, as powerful as a blast furnace. She stared up at him, considering the herce challenge
he was throwing out to her and sensing the subtle pleadingin his fhingers as they tightened in her hair, urging her to takehim in her mouth. Her pride recoiled at his brutal powergame, but still she craved his vigor and energy, understanding on a deep animal level that his was a heat that wouldnot fizzle out, leaving her chilled and lonesome. At least this was for real. No matter how much he infuriated her, he was for real.lt was that silent understanding that seduced her at last, pulling her into his dark , seductive vortex. She brushed his hot hard male flesh against cool, vortex. rain-wet cheek ang then grasped the pulsing shaft in both hands, savoring the sinuous energy that was uncoiling inside her. He was burning, his hard flesh warming her cold hands instantly.
She stroked him, and his fist tightened in her hair
"Don't tease, Annie," he warned. I'm not in the mood."
"I know exactly how much you need this, Jacob," She said in a soft, taunting voice. "Don't even try to bully me.
"Oh yeah?" He covered her hands with his own and dragged them hard up and down the length of his penis, forcing her to pleasure him. "You said you were sorry
Annie. Show me how sorry you are. Suck me."His mocking tone angered ner. She twisted away, but her hair was trapped tightly in his powertul hand. She suddenl hated the submissive posture she was in. "You're poison mean, Jacob.""I learned it from you, sweetheart," he said, as he thrust himselt roughly into her mouth.It wasn't like last night, when he'd lain back and gratefully appreciated the attention of her lips and tongue. Thistime he gripped her head and set the rhythm himself. She gave a choked cry of protest, and he slowed down. "Takemore of me, he urged. Come on, Annie."Anger and contusion and a crazy burst of excitement; the volatile mix blazed through her body, making her impervious to the cool rain. Guided by his big hands, she found a way to give him the rhythm he wanted, relaxıng instinctively and swallowing him whole. Even in this arrogant, masterful stance, he was desperate for her to lavish the sweet swirl and glide of her tongue on him. She pleasured him, loving the harsh gasps and groans that vibrated through the steely tension of his body. She was barely conscious of putting her hand between her legs and presing her thighs together tightly, trying in vain to ease the pulsing agony of arousal that was driving her half mad.
She looked up, daze ed, whenh suddenly pulled her away from himself .
He was still hugely erect and vibrating with excitement ,but he tilted her head back , staring into her eyes with a look of discovery. "I'll be damned. Who would have thought he murmured. " This vibe really works for you, Annie,"Annie shrank back at the predatory look on his face. She saw her hand between her thighs and snatched it away with a gasp, as if she'd let an enemy glimp a secret weakness she hadn t even known she possessed. "Don't," she whispered
"Don't what?"
"Don't look at me like that!" cried out wildly.
Don't get any ideas. Tonight is. . an unusual situation. The rules are different."
"What rules? He asked softly. here are no rules. It's just you and me, all alone ."She pulled away from his hand and scrambled to her feet, eyeing him warily and back away.
"You're scaring me, Jacob."
He followed her. "No, l'm not, he retorted, seizing her hand. "And even if l am, you' re loving it." He forced it down and curled it around his swollen penis, trapping it in-side his own big hand. His velvety skin was wet, from her mouth, from the rain, and her hand slid easily over his rock-hard shaft. He pushed her onto her knees again and grasped his penis, milking it roughly until a drop of gleaming moisture pearled at the tip. He urged her mouth closerto his hungry shaft. "Lick it off," he commanded. " Taste me."Her body betrayed her even as her mind rebelled at his arrogant presumption. She opened her mouth and obeyed him, licking away the salty, silky drop of fluid. A shudder of unwilling excitement rocked her body. "Don t do this to me, Jacob," she whispered.
"I can't stop," he said in a rasping voice. "I know how much it turns you on. He pulled her up onto her feet and kissed her, his tongue into her mouth, his hand greedily cupping her breasts. "Whatever I want right? Isn't that what you said?".
She stiffened. "Yes., but...... "This is what I want, Annie. This is how It has to be tonight. Look at me, damn it." He jerked her face up to his,Letting her glimpse for an instant the seething conflict in his eyes. He grabbed her arm, dragging her over to the picnic table and pushing her in front of him against it, reachingaround from behind to deftly unbutton her jeans. He jerked her jeans and panties down over her hips until they wereat her knees, baring her from the waist down and hobbling her at the same moment. She reached down to retrievethem, but he caught her hands behind her back and pressed her against the table, fitting himselt against her so she couldfeel the hot brand of his penis against her cool, shivering backside. "Bend over," he ordered, his voice a husky rasp.Her knees went weak. "Oh, for Gods sake, Jacob," shewhispered. "Can't we go in the tent?"Too dark," he muttered. "I want to see you, all spread out and open
When she came to, Jacob was collapsed on top of her. shivering in the aftermath of his own orgasm. He lifted himself off her with a harsh sigh, sliding slowly out of her body. She struggled upright and turned to face him. His face was as shocked and naked as she knew her own must be. She reached down with trembling hngers to pull up her jeans. "Don't bother," Jacob said, yanking off his shirt. "Take your clothes off and leave them out here. They cant get any wetter. This rain s not going to stop." The calm, practical observation grounded her a little. She tugged off her muddy shoes and peeled off her jeans.and shirt, leaving them in a wet heap on the tarp. They stood there, stark naked in the rain, staring as if they were afraid of each other, both sharply aware of the heat that licked and curled between them, wholly unabated. "Get into the tent," he said curtly. She crawled inside. Rain pounded in a soft, constant roar on the plastic rain can
The rain had fnally stopped, and dawn was near. Annie listened to the birds twittering, an ache of sweet exhaustion pervading her body, and tried tO think of a way to extricate herself from Jacob's arms without waking him. It was a considerable challenge. His muscula arm was clasped around her waist; his hand splayed possessively across her belly and the tips of his long fingers tangled intimately into the hair between her legs. One long, sinewy leg was fhirmly wedged between her thighs. And he was so warm, It was hard to get up the nerve to break the seal and let cold air rush between them. She wiggled experimentally.. Jacob sighed and pulled her tighter against him, fitting her back-side against his belly. Nature called, however, so Annie gritted her teeth and flung back the warm, soft sleeping bag His arm clamped around her, as rigid as steel. "Where the hell do you think you're going?" Her muscles jerked, and she schooled her face to calmness before
Annie scurried down the path, so agitated that her leg trembled and her mind spun in helpless., trapped little circles. She couldnt wait to get on the road and have some privacy. She needed distance from Jacob's intense, brooding presence so she could calm down, get the events of the last two days sorted out in her mind, She packed her stutt at triple speed at the campsite, and regarded the soggy tent with dismay. "If I pack it now, it'llmildew," she told him. "It has to dry. Go on ahead if you wanted breakfast," Jacob snorted in disgust and began dismantling her tent himself. He flung pegs and rods bundled the sodden fabric carelessly into one of the plastic sacks he had brought the night before. "You won't be using this again," he informed her.Her jaw dropped. "What the hell are you doing? That's my tent!" "You want a tent, fine," he said coldly. "We'll stop at thefirst mall we see and I'll buy you a decent one.

As soon as the door lock flashed green, he propelled into the room and slammed the door shut. He flung his jack on the floorand shoved her against the wall, "Those jeans drive me crazy," he growled, sliding his hands him hungrily all over her hips. "They're too small," she said shakıly. "They shrank in the wash." "They're perfect," he insisted. He wrenched open the buttons of her jeans and fell to his knees, dragging them down around her ankles.She clutched his shoulders for balance, staring down at his dark head, his thick hair straggling wildly out of its elastic band. He pressed his face against her mound, breathing in her fragrance with deep, hungry breaths, and put his hand between her legs, forcing them apart. He leaned forward and thrust his tongue into her cleft, Swirling it tenderly around and around the flushed delicate bud of her clitoris, sucking on it with slow, devastating skill until her knees sagged and she started
And she could finally breathe. Theoretically. If she breathed too deep, the tears would start again. If she held her breath, she would pass out. She compromised with short, strangled little gasps and stared at the horrendous motel art-some sort of obscenely bright-colored mallard duck. She put her hands over her eyes to block it out, and tried to pull herself together. She had to grab onto the last, ragged, fluttering shred of her independent Will and run, far and fast. She couldn't let herself be taken Over, swept away, because he was her mate. For God's sake, the man had just fucked her practically senseless, and she still wanted him. She doubled over with a strangled laugh and pressed her face against her knees. After three short days with Jacob, the whole werewolf story, which had seemed so apocalyptic, was blotted practically out of her mind. The memory now had a tinny sense of distance, like a scary but more or less insignificant movie she
"For God's sake, all I asked for was a turkey club, a burger, a beer and coke. I didn't order a six course meal," Jacob barked to the lone star steakhouse hostess. "It's already been more than a half an hour!" The hostess's cherry-red mouth tightened. "It'll be right out, sir," "That's what you said the last four times," he grumbled, sinking back down onto the bench. He was as agitated as hell, his boot pounding a staccato rhythm on the floor. He covered his eyes with his hand, horrified at himself. He had never tried to intimidate a woman with his size and strength before. He had never needed to, but the resistance he sensed in Annie goaded him to keep pushing her, to break down her defenses. He couldn't seem to stop. It was like a bad dream. At this rate, his mate is giving him more hard time then he could imagined He would bring back her lunch and throw himself on her mercy. Apologize for being such a controlling asshole. He couldn't handle
Later, cuddled together in the sagging bed in the first roadside motel they found, Annie stretched and rested her head on his broad, warm chest. "I would never have pegged you as an architect, she said in a wondering voice. "That long hair ot yours." He gave her a guilty smile. "I thought it would ruin my bad-ass, biker dude image if I let on that I know how to iron a dress shirt. She laughed and reached for her glass, taking a lazy sip of champagne. "I thought you were going to ask me to be your biker babe, and ride off into the sunset with you on the back of your hog, although we are mate." He wrapped one of her curls around his finger and stroked it against his cheek. "You do not have any idea what I 've been passing through without you, all my thoughts was to make you mine completely when I finally found you. He kissed her hair and asked, "Would you have gone for it?" "I think you could convince me to do just about anything," she
Her heart skipped a beat, and started to gallop. Jacob stood there, his hair loose and windblown, his face.haggard and unshaven. A silver dollars gleamed in his outstretched hand. "You've got one more coin to play, Annie," he said quietly. She drank in the sight of his pale, weary, incredibly beautiful face. "I gave that dollar to you" she whispered. For luck." He shook his head. "I want more than that from you." Deep down her heart she knew what he meant, but still she said "What do you want? she forced out. His eyes burned into hers with piercing intensity for a moment, and then a brief, tired smile flashed on his face softening his harsh expression. "Everything," he admitted. She tried to laugh, but it came out like a sob. " You think big." "You better believe it," he said, reaching for her. She was losing herself in his eyes, and she couldn't fight it anymore. Her eyes filled with tears as his lips met hers wi
