Caroline’s POV
I woke up feeling warm hands on my skin. I knew it was Draven without looking. His fingers moved softly across my stomach, going up to my breast.
"I know you’re awake," he whispered in my ear. "Your breathing changed."
I smiled, eyes still closed. "Maybe I’m just enjoying being touched by my handso Alpha."
I felt his warm chest against my back as his lips left hot kisses from my neck to my jaw. "Good morning, my beautiful mate."
I opened my eyes to et his purple ones, hot and wanting. We were naked under the sheets after making love all night. He’d pulled off my nightgown, wanting to feel my skin, and I loved how his warm body felt against mine.
"How are you so perfect in the morning, my love?"I asked, reaching up to trace my fingers along his strong jawline.
He caught my hand and pressed a kiss to my palm."I was just thinking the sa about you." His eyes darkened as he pulled closer. "Say it again."
"Say what?" I teased, knowing exactly what he wanted to hear.
"You know what," he growled playfully, nipping at my earlobe.
"Good morning?" I offered innocently.
He rolled on top of , supporting his weight on his forearms as he stared down into my eyes. "Are you teasing your Alpha,baby?"
"Maybe just a little... my love."
His entire face lit up with those words.He lowered his head until our lips were almost touching.
"You have no idea what those words do to , Caroline," he whispered. "How happy you make , how incredible it feels to wake up holding you like this. I want this every morning—falling asleep with you in my arms and waking up to your beautiful face. I love you,Carrie."
His soft kiss turned hungry and deep. His tongue found mine as his hands road my body. I felt him hard against my thigh, and my body responded with need.
His mouth found my neck, his bite making gasp. That spot was so sensitive, every touch sent shivers through .
"Quiet baby," he whispered roughly."Liam’s next door, and wolves have good hearing."
Ignoring his own words, he kept teasing , moving lower until he reached my breast. When his hot mouth closed around my nipple, I had to bite my lip to keep from crying out. His tongue swirled around the sensitive peak while his hand attended to my other breast, rolling and pinching gently.
"Draven," I whispered, arching into his touch.
"Love how you react to my touch," he growled against my skin. "How much you want ."
His hot mouth moved down my body, kissing my stomach. He spread my thighs wide, his dark hungry eyes fixed on my wet center. He ran his nose along my folds, breathing in deep with a growl.
"Goddess, you’re dripping for ," he groaned. "I could feast on you all day."
He pleasuring with his tongue, closing his lips around my sensitive bud and sucking, sending waves of pleasure through . He licked, sucked, and gently nipped, driving wild. He slipped one finger inside while his mouth continued its sweet torture. It was heaven feeling his mouth on , giving such pleasure. I was crazy with desire, beginning to move against his mouth, grabbing his hair and holding his head closer. He licked every inch, leaving floating on clouds.
When he sucked my sensitive bud, my hips jumped up against his face.
"Stay still," he growled, pinning my hips down with his strong hands.
He thrust two fingers into my wetness, curling them to hit that sweet spot while his tongue kept working my clit. The double pleasure was too much. I bit the pillow, trying not to scream.
"That’s it baby," he said between hungry licks. "Co on my tongue."
I exploded around his fingers as he drank up every drop. When he kissed up my body, I could taste my wetness on his tongue.
His hard length teased my entrance, sliding through my slick folds. I wrapped my legs around him, desperate to feel him inside.
"Tell what you need, Caroline," he whispered against my lips.
"You," I breathed. "All of you. Inside . Now."
With one powerful thrust, he buried himself to the hilt, stretching and filling completely. We both froze for a mont, savoring the perfect connection.
"So tight," he groaned. "So perfect around ."
He thrust into slow and deep, making feel every inch. Each ti he pushed in, he hit that sweet spot that had digging my nails into his shoulders, trying not to scream.
"Faster," I pleaded,"Please."
"As my mate commands," he said with a wicked smile, increasing his tempo.
His strong body moved over , muscles flexing with each deep thrust. He held the headboard with one hand to keep it quiet while pounding into hard.
"Shh," he whispered, "quiet baby, unless you want them hearing how good I’m fucking you."
Knowing Eleanor and Nate might hear only turned on more. Draven smirked, shifting to hit my sweet spot harder.
"I’m gonna cum," I gasped, feeling the pleasure build.
"Together," he growled, his thrusts getting wild as he got close.
When I ca, he kissed hard to muffle my screams as I tightened around his cock. He thrust deep one last ti, groaning my na as he filled with his hot release.
We stayed tangled in each other, breathing hard. He stayed deep inside , neither of us wanting to pull apart. His fingers traced my skin while I played with his ssy hair.
"I love you, Caroline," he said softly, his eyes serious. "Don’t ever leave again."
"I love you too, Draven. So much."
Eventually, we shared a steamy shower that nearly turned into more fun before getting dressed.
When we reached the kitchen, Eleanor and Nate were already there, drinking coffee and feeding Liam breakfast.
"Good morning, lovebirds," Eleanor sang out with a knowing smirk. "Sleep well?"
I felt my face heat up, but Draven just smiled smugly, wrapping an arm around my waist. "Never better."
"I bet," Nate muttered into his coffee cup. "The walls in this apartnt aren’t exactly soundproof, you know."
"Nate!" I hissed, mortified.
Eleanor laughed. "Oh please, it was like thunder eting lightning in there. Mother Nature herself would be impressed."
"Mommy!" Liam squealed, thankfully oblivious to the adults’ conversation. He was covered in syrup from his pancakes. "Draven taking to school!"
"Draven thinks he can just swoop in and take over godfather duties," Nate grumbled good-naturedly.
"Sorry, man," Draven said, not sounding sorry at all as he ruffled Liam’s hair. "Alpha’s privilege."
"We’ll see about that," Eleanor said, picking up Liam and wiping his sticky face. "We’ll pick him up this afternoon, take him to your place, and then negotiate custody arrangents."
"My goddess," I said, pressing my hand to my forehead. "You’re all going to spoil him rotten."
"That’s the plan," all three adults answered in unison, causing us all to laugh.
After dropping Liam at daycare, Draven drove toward Puma Global’s offices. On the way, he cleared his throat in that way that told he had sothing important to say.
"Caroline, I want to discuss sothing with you," he began.
"What is it?"
"I want you to officially join my pack," he said, eyes on the road but clearly gauging my reaction. "You and Liam both. Beco part of Storm Valley Pack."
I thought about it for a mont.
"I think I’d like that," I said slowly. "Being officially recognized as part of your pack would be good for Liam too."
His face lit up with a brilliant smile. "Really? That’s wonderful, sweetheart."
"But," I added, seeing his expression, "that doesn’t an I’m coming to work for you."
His smile faltered. "What do you an?"
"I know where this is going, Draven. You want to quit Puma Global and co back to be your assistant again."
"We work so well together," he argued. "I need you, Caroline. The office isn’t the sa without you."
"No," I said firmly. "I’m not going back to that office after everything that happened there. Every ti I’d walk into your office, I’d rember seeing you with Ella that day. Besides, I’ve built sothing for myself at Puma Global. Joseph values my work, and I’m good at sales."
"I can give you any position you want," Draven offered, pulling into the parking lot and turning to face . "Head of sales, marketing director—na it."
"That’s not the point," I explained gently. "I need sothing that’s mine. Sothing I built myself, not sothing given to because I’m the Alpha’s mate."
He looked disappointed but nodded. "I understand. But I’m not giving up, little wolf. I miss having you around all day."
"I miss you too," I admitted, leaning over to kiss him softly. "But this is important to ."
"Fine," he sighed, pulling in for another kiss. "But don’t think this conversation is over."
I laughed against his lips. "I wouldn’t expect anything less from my stubborn Alpha."
As I got out of the car, he called after , "I’ll pick you up at five. And Caroline?"
"Yes?"
His violet eyes glowed with possession and promise. "Think about what I said. About joining the pack officially. There’s a ceremony involved that I think you’ll enjoy."
The heated look he gave left little doubt about what kind of "ceremony" he was implying, and I felt warmth spread through all over again.
"I’ll think about it," I promised, then headed into Puma Global.
