Pushing those fears aside, she got to work making dinner.

Cassie was once again in the pool, and Abel stood back, watching her. She floated on her back, looking up at the sky through the glass he’d kept in place. He loved it when the moon was full and shining down on him.
They’d been training today, and he wanted to come and see if she was okay. He’d made her attack him, to unleash the full force of her rage. He didn’t have a single bruise on him, but he saw a couple of hers that hadn’t healed just yet.
His cock responded to the sight of her naked. She didn’t know he was there, or if she did, it didn’t show in the way she displayed herself.
Her tits were so big, with large nipples that he just wanted to press together as he teased them with his tongue.
She was a fuller woman, rounded in all the right places.
Since he’d caught her in his private room, she’d been avoiding him, he knew. He rarely saw her around his home, and today was the first time he had to actually summon her to get her near him.
Glancing down her body, he stared at the small patch of hair. Her thighs were closed as she floated along the water, which was a shame. He’d have loved to see her pretty, pink pussy.
Stepping out from his secluded spot, he was done being a voyeur or a peeping tom.
She gasped the moment she saw him, and quickly covered herself in the water.
“You don’t have to hide from me,” he said.
Abel didn’t even try to cover his arousal.
“Keep your eyes on me,” he said.
She didn’t look away as he peeled down his boxer briefs, uncovering his dick for her to see.
Wrapping his fingers around the length, he pumped his hand up and down before releasing his dick.
Climbing into the water, he prowled toward her.
She didn’t try to escape, and he was rather impressed with her.
Standing in front of her, he cupped her chin, and forced her to stand up and come toward him.
He didn’t hurt her. There was no need to.
Cassie followed his instruction as if it was something she had to do, and he fucking loved it, relished it even.
Running his thumb across her bottom lip, he stared into her green eyes and waited.
“I don’t want you avoiding me anymore,” he said.
“I’m not.”
“Are you going to lie to me?”
She pressed her lips together, no sound coming out as he stared at her.
Stroking a finger down her neck, he felt her pulse beating rapidly against him, and he smiled. “You liked my room?”
“Yes.”
“What did you like about it?”
“I don’t know.”
He raised a brow, waiting.
“It was … different.”
“You surprised me how calm you were looking around. Most women would run the other way.”
“I’m not like most women.”
“No, you’re not. You’re incredibly strong.”
He’d felt the power she possessed and had wondered if fate had brought her to him as she was his mate. He wouldn’t know until the full moon, which was still over a week away.
Abel didn’t know if he could wait that long to have her.
His cock right now was so fucking hard.
When Cassie reached out, placing a hand on his stomach, his wolf was fucking joyous, her touch calming him even as his arousal stayed the same. His need for her was building with every passing second.
“I liked it. I … my dreams have been getting more intense.”
“Do I still lead you to the room?”
“Yes.”
“What happens when I open that door?”
“You’re there, locking us inside. No one will interrupt you when you’re in the zone. It’s become our own little safe haven.” Her cheeks were bright red.
“What do I do to you?”
“You know what you do,” she said. “You don’t need me to spell it out.”
Sinking his fingers into her hair, he pulled her close at the same time, tilting her head back. There was a bite of pain in his touch, and she gasped. Her nipples were tight, pressing against his chest.
They felt like fucking heaven, and he didn’t want to let her go.
“What do I do?”
“You fuck me, Abel. You make me watch, you take control. You don’t allow me to cover up or to hide. In that room, I’m yours, and you make sure I know it. If I don’t, then your hand is always there, spanking my ass, making me realize that I belong to you. That when I’m inside that room, I’m nothing but yours.”
His cock pulsed.
This was what he wanted as well.
He fucking ached for her.
Her lips looked so inviting that he couldn’t resist. Slamming his down on hers, he held her tight against him, taking away her choice as she kissed him back. At first, she didn’t respond, almost as if she was shocked that he’d decided to kiss her. He couldn’t not have her lips on him.
