plunged his tongue deep inside of
her. It was the most erotic thing she had ever felt. He pushed his
tongue as deep as it could go and then withdrew it. Jackie lifted
one leg and placed it over his shoulder, resting it on his back.
Zane used his tongue as he would his cock and she pushed his head
down further, desperate to get him even deeper inside of her. Zane
licked and sucked her clit, pressed his finger inside her, over and
over again until he couldn’t take any more. He stood up and
unzipped his jeans. He pushed them down and held his cock. He
rubbed it on her slowly, up and down, then suddenly pressed inside
of her.
“Zane, please….” She groaned as he began
moving into her, faster and faster. Zane leaned down and nuzzled
her breasts. She enjoyed the roughness of his stubble on her
breasts. The way he licked and sucked on them while moving slowly
in and out of her. Zane thrust into her deeply, then repositioned
both of her legs to rest on his chest and shoulders. He thrust
again, deeper this time, varying his angle, hitting just the right
spot. She clawed at the sheets as she orgasmed once, twice,
thrice…she lost count at twenty. He lowered her legs and leaned
over her, kissed her softly on the mouth, nuzzling her neck.
Jackie’s wolf receded and she suddenly came
to her senses. What was she doing ? How could she have
allowed him to touch her again ? She pushed at him and he
moved. Bracing his arms on either side of her, Zane raised up to
look at her. He saw the regret in her eyes and he withdrew from
her. He stood, pulled up his jeans, turned and left the cabin,
slamming the door behind him.
Chapter 5
Outside, Zane walked into the forest and
stripped. He changed into a sleek grey wolf and took off into the
forest. He ran as fast as he could, leaping over fallen limbs and
large rocks. He ran to escape the sadness caused by his mate’s
rejection. His heart ached and he pushed himself to near exhaustion
running blindly in an unfamiliar territory. Seeing an abrupt
opening ahead of him, his wolf instincts took over and he skidded,
stopping inches away from a deep ravine. His heart thudded in his
chest from coming so close to falling to his death.
Zane-wolf stood at the edge of the ravine,
contemplating his situation. Jackie didn’t want or need him.
He thought about what Jackie told him about her pack. She would
still be protected if he wasn’t around. He couldn’t use that as an
excuse to stay with her or as a reason to convince her to keep him.
She seemed to enjoy sex. Would any wolf satisfy her? He
growled at the thought of another wolf touching his mate. He
remembered how she had pushed him away after they had sex earlier.
The regret in her eyes wounded him. His anger gave way to sadness
and he howled in pain. The heartbreaking sound echoed through the
forest, all the way to the cabin.
Jackie showered and dressed after Zane left
and she felt guilty when she remembered the hurt look on his face
when she pushed him away after they had sex. Zane confused her. He
didn’t seem like a coldblooded killer. Was Lucien right? Had he only acted in self-defense? Zane was so much smaller than her
brother, how could he have killed Sean unless he cheated somehow?
Maybe he had help from his pack mates? Didn’t Lucien say Sean’s
friends backed up Zane’s story? That only Zane had fought Sean? She
reached for the satellite phone and called Sean’s friends. Neither
of them answered and she left a message saying she would try again
tomorrow.
Jackie decided to prepare something for
dinner. As she was gathering ingredients, she heard a heart
wrenching howl and just knew it was Zane. Her wolf surfaced and she
changed in an instant. She ran to the door and was forced to change
back to her human form since she couldn’t open it as a wolf. She
was shocked at her reaction. Never before had she changed so
quickly into her wolf. Only Alphas could change that quickly.
Usually it took her several minutes and she had to
