  Chapter one

  It had become something of a ritual. The clan had gathered for a cookout and Shane was busy doing his thing over the open fire while the rest of them drank beer and threw barbs back and forth between them. The best thing was that no one was shifting into their bears and beating the hell out of anyone else, and for that Jackson credited Alex’s presence.

  Since his mate had joined the clan everything was calmer, more peaceful. There were still fights, they were damn bears after all, but it happened a lot less now and he was grateful for that. For one thing it meant that he got to spend more time mating and less time knocking heads together, and damn did he like mating.

  “Reece has gone again.” Chance informed him the moment that they had a moment to themselves.

  “Where the hell does that man keep going?” Jackson didn’t like it. A clan were there for each other. Every man had the next ones back and if they couldn’t rely on Reece being around if they needed him then he might as well be gone for good. It wasn’t a prospect that Jackson had wanted to face, but it looked as if it was heading that way.

  “You want I should follow him next time?” Chance was curious about Reece’s recent disappearances.

  “If he’s slopping off to spend more time as his bear then I guess I should know about it.”

  Jackson didn’t much like that idea. The more time a shifter spent as their beast the more likely they were never to return to human form and that was when they became dangerous. He didn’t want to have to kill his friend.

  “You think he is?” Chance would knock the damn fur off Reece if that’s what he was doing. Russian roulette with your beast wasn’t something any shifter should be playing.

  “I don’t think. Thinking is bad for you, it gives you stress and ulcers.” Jackson didn’t want to cross that bridge until he came to it, even hypothetically.

  “And a bear with a sore head is bad enough.” Alex had caught the last of the conversation as she turned her attention back towards her mate. Jackson reached out an arm and wrapped it around her waist, hauling her onto his lap and getting the kind of excited squeal from her lips that he liked to hear, usually just before they mated.

  “Luckily you don’t have that problem.” He growled as he nuzzled against her neck and felt her backside squirm against his hard cock.

  “Says you!” She chuckled. Jackson could be prone to a lot of emotions. Right now the man was preoccupied with mating and very rarely in a bad mood, but his temperament could shift like the wind, and she always knew how to get him out of it; which normally led to them mating, but she’d experienced the other side of his temper when it was aimed at her ex.

  “Now don’t go tempting my beast out, woman…” Jackson teased as his lips brushed her ear and he felt her shiver long and hard.

  “I like your wild side it keeps me awake at night.” He knew that tone of voice and it stirred his need for her. “But why don’t you just ask Reece where he’s going?” She was back to business and he felt a little disappointed.

  “Reece is…” Jackson paused to find the word that he was looking for which allowed the others to jump right on in there with their own opinions.

  “Secretive.” Chance offered.

  “Uncooperative.” Jackson was diplomatic, something that he was learning as a mate when he had to deal with Alex’s foibles.

  “An arsehole about these things.” Marcus growled a little.

  “Geez, Marcus, don’t sugar coat it.” Alex chuckled.

  “I like to call things as I see them. No use in pretending otherwise.” Marcus flashed her that smile of his; it was the one that had women’s panties dropping for miles around, or so she’d heard, but it did little for her except made her smile.

  “If his beast is winning the fight then we need to put him down before he does any damage.” Shane didn’t turn to look at any of them when he said what they were all thinking. He stared ahead of him into the flames of the fire.

  “Put him down as in…?” Alex left the question hanging. She didn’t like this side of the clan. The infighting might have become a little less since she’d mated with Jackson, and yet there was still that undercurrent of danger about all of these men.

  “He’d be a danger to everyone, Alex.” Jackson offered her that insight and she considered it on a frown. She liked Reece, she liked all of the clan and she didn’t want to think of them turning on one of their own, but she accepted the fact that they knew shifter life better than she did and if Reece was becoming a danger then they would do what they needed to do.

  “Let’s change the damn subject.” Chance growled out. It was so near the target for his own predicament that he didn’t want to consider it. His bear was unpredictable and one of these days he expected that his clan would need to kill him in order to save someone. He might have accepted it, but he didn’t have to like it.

  “Speaking of bears with sore heads.” Marcus chuckled at Chance’s expense.

  “Don’t you have a bar to visit and a woman to bed?” Chance growled back.

  Jackson had felt the atmosphere shift in an instant and he was ready to put Alex out of harm’s way should all hell break lose and Chance lost the tight control he tried to keep on his beast.

  “Sure I do, but this is fuel for all those hours of screwing…” Marcus teased as he motioned to his plate and the mound of food that was still left uneaten.

  “Screwing, Marcus? Really?” Alex berated him with her tone and saw the hard frown take over his forehead.

  “They’re not my mate, Alex, what do you want me to call it? It is screwing and nothing else.” Marcus shrugged his broad shoulders.

  “And do those women know that?” Alex asked.

  “Sure they do, little mate. They don’t want strings attached any more than I do. They want a night with a shifter and that’s what they get.” Marcus didn’t see the problem with that. If anything he felt it was a public service to keep all of those women happy and satisfied on the end of his cock.

  “Just don’t go breaking any hearts, big bear.” Alex warned him. The size of Marcus’s grin matched the size of the man’s personality, huge. He was probably the one in the clan that she was closest too after Jackson, and she liked Marcus, he was a charmer.

  “Wouldn’t dream of it.” He offered her that big old grin again and she wondered just how much trouble that smile of his could get him into or out of.

  “You need to eat more.” Jackson announced on a change of subject and Alex turned her attention towards him.

  “I ate plenty.
”

  “Not for the energy that you’re using up…” Jackson’s eyes flashed with desire and she knew where this was headed. The same place it was headed every night since the very first time that they’d been together. The man was insatiable and that was ok with her.

  “You just want me fat.” Alex snorted.

  “I want you round with my cubs.” Jackson’s grin was devilish.

  “Fat.” Alex offered back.

  “A little extra curve on a woman is a good thing, Alex.” Marcus teased her and she didn’t appreciate it. She was rounded enough in her book.

  “Fat with my cubs.” Jackson gave her a damned sexy grin that made the heat spread inside of her.

  “Curves are good.” Chance nodded absently and Marcus chuckled.

  “What would you know? When was the last time you chased a woman?” Marcus offered Chance and the man growled back in annoyance.

  “I have eyes.” Chance tried to stay away from women as much as he could. Sure, he was male and he had needs but his bear was unpredictable enough without throwing sex into the equation. When he was tempted, he spent most of his time trying to keep a leash on his damn bear to truly lose himself in a female.

  “And a hand.” Shane chuckled to another growl from the man.

  Chance pushed up to his feet as his bear clawed within him to be released. He gripped his plate the same way that he held onto his bear inside of him. He’d promised himself that he wouldn’t lose control around Alex again, and he intended to keep that promise as he stalked off towards his cabin.

  “Stop picking on him.” Alex gave a little human growl of her own. She knew that Chance was the one with the biggest problem where his bear was concerned, hell, he’d almost killed her not that long ago. She didn’t see why the others took to pushing his buttons.

  “We’re just messing…” Marcus protested and got another little growl for his trouble.

  “You guys should be helping him not winding him up.” Alex pushed away from her mate and got to her feet. Jackson’s hand was wrapped around her wrist before she could move away from him.

  “Give Chance some space.” Jackson advised her.

  “He won’t hurt me.” Alex said, assured in that fact.

  “He won’t know he’s hurt you until it’s too late.” Jackson wasn’t about to allow her into Chance’s den when the man was fighting his demons.

  Alex took her mate’s words under advisement. He did know the man better than she did, and yet she felt that Chance was doing better at controlling his bear of late. She nodded her agreement as Jackson pushed up to his feet.

  “Bed.” He growled down at her and she raised her eyebrows expectantly. Jackson had a habit of sounding as if he was ordering her around and he was working on it. He rolled his eyes. “It’s time for bed.” He offered down to her and didn’t wait until she answered before he scooped her up against his body and let her feel the hardness of his cock for herself.

  “Sounds like a plan.” Alex grinned up at him with a fire in her eyes that made his beast growl within him. He reached down and cupped two handfuls of her backside, lifting her up and wrapping her legs around his hips as he tucked her skirt down so that the others didn’t get a view of what was only for him.

  Jackson stalked back to his cabin on fast feet. With his cock straining to be released from his jeans and his hunger growing; he didn’t want to wait a moment longer to have her. He booted the door open and back heeled it closed.

  “Stop.” Just that one word halted him in his tracks. “Put me down.” Alex demanded and he complied. He didn’t want to do it, he wanted to take her into the bedroom and sink his cock inside of her, but his mate’s wishes were his command at times like these.

  Jackson let her slide down his hard body with a groan as she kept going of her own volition to her knees in front of him. He groaned at the sight of her there. She was already starting to release his length from the restriction of his jeans and his mind was already five steps ahead of her…

  “Fuck, Alex…” He groaned at the feel of her hands on his cock.

  “I think you mean suck…” She gave him the kind of hungry grin that made his cock twitch in her hand and his balls tighten with expectation.

  “Yeah, baby. Suck my cock…” His giant hand fisted her hair and he brought her mouth towards his length. “Suck it good, baby.” He pressed the tip of his cock against her lips and she opened her mouth to accept him, eagerly devouring him with a fever that was catching.

  He couldn’t help it when his hips took to rocking back and forth, taking her mouth as deeply as he knew she could handle. He didn’t know how she did it, but she had the kind of suction around his cock that practically sucked the seed from his balls, and that slow slide back and forth became more urgent. He needed to stop or he’d empty his balls down the back of her throat and he wanted to be deep inside of her when he came.

  It took everything that he had to slow his hips, but his mate had other ideas. Her hands were palming the cheeks of his tight backside and as he started to slow she dug her fingernails into his flesh and took matters into her own hands. He groaned at the fever with which she was suckling him. His mind and body were in two different places and he could have stopped her, but he’d got to the damn point where she just felt too good.

  “Fuck, Alex…” He ground out between clenched teeth as his muscles clenched hard and his balls drew up tight. The sound of her moaning in the back of her throat sent him over the edge as his seed exploded down the back of her throat, over and over again until he was done.

  “Fuck is right. I want your beast side tonight, Jackson. No holding back…” Alex practically growled each and every word. His mate was ripe for a fucking; he could scent it in the air, and her eyes were demanding as she stared up at him.

  The deep growl that rolled through his chest sent shivers down her spine, but it was the sight of those big hands reaching down for her that really sent the excitement level soaring within her.

  Jackson didn’t give a fuck about the contents of the solid wood side in the small hallway. He lifted his mate up and held her with one arm as he cleared everything from the surface. Turning Alex in his arms; he laid her face down over the hard wood and tossed her skirt up over her body. The flash of red silk panties was akin to waving a damn flag in front of a bull and he reached out and tore another pair of underwear to pieces.

  Alex expected his cock to plough deep inside of her, but her mate never did what was expected. Instead he buried his face against her sex with a hearty growl and devoured her with a fever that took her breath away. She cursed and clawed her fingernails against the varnished surface as he demanded that she come for him, and her body complied, clamping down hard on the intensity of that first release.

  Jackson thrust his tongue into her channel and growled in ecstasy at the taste of her juices as he swallowed them down the back of his throat. She was his honey and he couldn’t get enough… Not until his hard cock reminded him of where it needed to be and he rose up onto his feet, gripped her hips to hold her in place; spread out over the furniture, and thrust to the hilt within her.

  Her inner muscles were still clenching and releasing from the orgasm that he’d given her and it felt so damn good around his cock. She’d wanted his beast side and he was going to give it to her. Allowing his bear a little more freedom; he took her back and forth down his length, fucking her hard and fast as her body tightened around his once more.

  “Deeper, harder…” She moaned as the tip of his cock impaled her over and over again. Pain and pleasure mixed together as his fingers tightened against her hips and he placed her in the potion where he could really fuck her hard. His cock rubbing over her G-spot until the orgasm exploded from deep within and made her cry out with the fevered intensity of it.

  Jackson wasn’t nearly done. He curled his body over the top of hers. His hand snaked around her hips until he found her clit and he worked it hard and fast. He heard her palms hit the polished wood as she arched he
r back and pressed her stomach against the wood bringing her head and shoulders up, exposing her neck…

  The hard growl that rumbled through his chest was at the thought of biting into her flesh with his fangs and sending the change through her body that would make her a shifter too. He wouldn’t do it, but it didn’t stop the need within him to bite. Instead he bit down with blunt teeth as his hips hit her backside hard and fast, fucking hard, and losing himself within her body.

  Every muscle within his body was camping up on him. He was close to losing his seed inside of her. Damn close, but he’d be damned if he wouldn’t feel her channel devouring his cock on an orgasm one more time.

  He fucked her like a wild thing. Grunting, growling and cursing as he tried to hold onto his seed. The moment that she cried out; he let nature take its course. His hips slammed against her backside and the rhythmic hard sucking of her body drained his balls dry. Over and over, he pumped his seed into her until he had nothing left to give…

  Jackson fell forward onto his elbows. His legs were shaking and his muscles were protesting the fact that he was still upright, but he refused to give into the temptation to collapse on the damn floor. Gathering every bit of energy that he could muster; he collected her from the side and into his arms, making his way through the cabin and into the bedroom before he collapsed with her on the bed, dragging her body against his and curling around her protectively in the darkness.

  “Beast enough for you?” Jackson growled against her hair.

  “Not yet, but we can work on it.” Alex’s breathless voice made him grin to himself. She was one tough cookie and one feisty mate, and he was more than grateful for that.

  “What the hell?” Chance had followed Reece into town.

  The man was up and out early, even before the sun had a chance to really warm the land up around them, and he’d driven just two towns over and was pacing back and forth in front of a building where the sign read Library above it. Chance thought it must have been a mistake.
