“Rowan, being Alpha is part of who you are. You can’t just give that up,” she says sadly.
“For you? For my mate? I will give up anything. Everything,” I reply vehemently. “This is all I’ve ever wanted since I can remember. You are all I have ever wanted. I’m not giving you up.”
Before she can try to argue any further, I fuse my lips to hers. I kiss her with all the passion my body holds, trying to let her feel how much I want her. I drag my free hand down her body, from her shoulder to her breast, and then to her hip where I use my leverage to pull her tightly against me. My big frame is nestled between her slender thighs, my cock at the apex of her sex.
Kira makes a mewling sound deep in her throat, her leg wrapping around my hip to pull me closer to her. Pulling away, I stare down at her, watching her closely as I speak.
“Let me mate you, keep you,” I say. “I want to be there for you no matter what, making sure you’re never sad again. I want to be the one to make sure no one ever hurts you again. For the rest of my life, I want to make up for not protecting you sooner.”
Kira stares at me, not saying a word. Fear races through my veins that she may say no. I don’t know what I’ll do if she doesn’t want me, but I won’t let her go.
“Rowan,” she whispers, pulling me back to the present. “Please don’t break my heart.”
Chapter Ten
Kira
I must have lost my damn mind, or my hormones are officially doing all my thinking for me, but I believe him. He wants me, and he wants to be there for me. I can’t even fathom the fact he’s willing to give up being Alpha for me. I’ve never even heard of such a thing.
If he’s willing to lay it all on the line for me, shouldn’t I do the same? Mating isn’t going to fix the past, of that fact, I am aware, but it might be the key to a happy future.
“I would never hurt you,” he says earnestly before kissing me again.
I didn’t know that kissing could be like this. I’ve kissed men before, but I have never felt it all the way from the roots of my hair to the tips of my toes. This isn’t just a kiss, it’s a promise.
For long moments, we both get lost in the kiss, enjoying each other passion, but I need more from him. I need him to prove his words, to make me his, and to keep me with him forever. I arch my back, pressing my breasts into his muscled chest, trying to get more from him. But Rowan doesn’t break from the kiss. He only lifts my leg higher onto his hip before thrusting his covered erection against my sex.
A mewling sound escapes from me, which causes Rowan to smile against my lips. He places a soft peck on my lips before pulling back to smile down at me.
“I’m going to claim you, mate you, and put my cub inside you so you can never leave me. If you want me to stop, now is your chance.”
“Please,” I whisper in reply.
Something in him snaps. His lips circle one of my nipples, suckling hard as he releases my hands. One of his hands moves lower, toward the juncture between my thighs. A loud moanleaves me the moment his fingers touch my soaking folds before spearing into my entrance.
“You’re so wet,” he mumbles around my nipple, two fingers spearing in and out of me. “I don’t know if I can be gentle with you, not this first time.”
My hands work at trying to remove his shirt. “Who says I want gentle?”
Rowan pulls away abruptly, tearing his t-shirt over his head. He forces his shorts down over his ass, allowing his cock to spring free. It lands on my pussy, nudging at my clit, and I moan again loudly. I’ve had sex once before, with a non-shifter, when I was trying to be someone other than who I am, but I’m a shifter, so I have seen many penises before. But Rowan’s? It’s thick and veiny, with a bulbous head at the top that’s already leaking cum onto my skin. He’s massive. Although I’m a little nervous, I can’t wait to have him inside me.
I grip him tightly, stroking him from root to tip. Rowan curses loudly before pushing my hand away.
“You can touch me to your heart’s content. Later.”

Rowan
Tilting Kira’s pelvis up off the dock, I don’t hesitate. I surge forward and bury all eight inches of my cock inside her. The motion is smooth and fluid, her wet cunt welcoming me. Kira throws her head back and screams.
I should be gentle. Her pussy is clearly unused from the snug fit, but my animalistic side has taken over, and I can’t control myself. I rut into her like a mindless beast. My thrusts are deep and powerful, the base of my cock hitting her little clit with every plunge. With every stroke, her breasts jiggle, and a breathy moan escapes her, only spurring me on.
She tangles her hands in my hair, pulling me forward andkissing me deeply before biting my lip. I pull away to find her smirking at me.
“I thought alphas could fuck. Is this all you’ve got?”
I pull out of her body and flip her over. Grabbing her hips, I pull her onto her knees and thrust in deeply. The sounds she makes as I fuck her from behind drives me to give her more. Harder. Deeper. I want her to feel me inside her when she breathes later.
