"Who are you?" I came awake with a jerk, disoriented and aching all over.
A heavy male body lay beside me---we were both naked except for the sheet covering our bodies.
Embarrassment stained my skin bright red. I searched my memories of the night before, trying to figure out how I had gotten here while attempting to wrap the sheet around my body. I stopped when I realized I'd leave my bed partner totally nude.

No... it couldn’t be!

His eyes held so much pain and his voice was laced with panic.
"You are mine, Maddie," he said as he leaned in and pressed a small kiss on my forehead. "You are mine, and I am not letting you go."
Ma...

“What are you doing?”
“What do you think?” I asked, pulling her ass back into my crotch. I let her feel my throbbing erection through her nightie.
“You see what you've done to me. I'm so hard for you. I need to be in you. Fuck you.”
“Blake,” she whimpered.
I slid her off my lap and onto the bed. She laid down on it, staring up at me with these trembling eyes. I shifted around, pushing her legs apart. Her nightie slid up it. I licked my lips, tasting her spicy passion.
“I'm not going to hurt you...

It is a big pack. I was about to open the door when I heard some giggling from the other side. It was a female I know that because what male giggle.

A gasp left her throat as his finger came against her bare skin, setting it alight as it went.
The corner of his lips twitched and then curled up into a smirk that was offensively smug.
“But something tells me...” then his finger left her chest and went back to her lips, the rest cupping her face and bringing her closer to him.
“…that won’t be a problem,” he whispered against her lips.
Anna is born with a gift that she consi...

"Ellis," I followed Ellis' gaze, and he was staring at the woman behind me.
"Mate,"
My knees weakened as Ellis whispered the words. I took a step back.
