regularly outdo themselves when they cook.” Capac leaned in and whispered in her ear, “Though I’m finding I’m hungering for a taste of you rather than what is on my plate.”
Capac pulled back and gave Riya a look that had her mouth going suddenly dry as a surge of arousal shot through her. The room seemed to get very hot. She was sorely tempted to wave her hand in front of her face, but decided it would draw too much attention. She didn’t want the other people in the room to notice the sexual tension that grew between her and the man who sat beside her.
Riya tried to focus on the food she’d taken, but couldn’t concentrate past what Capac had said to her. She remembered all too well how it felt to have his mouth moving over hers, licking and sucking. And the hardness of his erection pressed against her.
She’d only eaten half of what was on her plate when she finally gave up. Her body no longer craved food. Her pussy throbbed, demanding attention. Riya looked at Capac from the corner of her eye and saw he seemed to be eating in a hurry.
Once he’d finished, he stood and looked down at her. “Are you done?”
At her nod, he helped her to her feet, then took her plate from her. Riya followed Capac out of the room to the kitchen where he put their plates into the dishwasher. That chore completed he took her hand, led her out of the room and up the stairs to the second level where the bedrooms were located.
He tugged her into one, then released her hand as he closed and locked the door behind them. Sure it had to be a trick of the light or her eyes seeing something that wasn’t actually there, Riya noticed Capac’s eyes seemed to take on a muted glow for a second as he stepped toward her. Riya forgot all about that as soon as he took her into his arms and proceeded to kiss her breathless.
Chapter Three
Capac backed Riya to the center of the room as he kissed her with all the pent-up hunger inside him. That one kiss they’d shared before getting their food had hardly been enough. And it hadn’t helped that he’d been able to smell his mate’s arousal while they’d eaten. With his mating urge an ever-present thing, Riya’s scent made his body ache even more to have her. His cock was already hard.
He lifted his head and gazed at her. “I’ve been dying to do that for what seemed like ages.”
“You and me both.”
“Then you won’t mind if I strip you naked and kiss every inch of you.”
“As long as I get to do the same thing to you in return.”
Capac had to hold back a growl as he once again took Riya’s lips with his own. He wanted to make love to her fully, but he couldn’t. Not until she was ready for him to claim her as his mate. Once the mating bond formed between them there would be no undoing it. After he did make her his, he’d be able to turn her with one bite while in his dire wolf form, making her an immortal werewolf like him.
He placed a hand on the small of her back and urged her closer so they were pressed together from chest to knees. Riya lifted her arms and put her hands on his chest. The scent of her arousal increased, filling Capac’s nose, making his heart beat faster.
Capac deepened their kiss as he pulled the ends of Riya’s blouse out of her jeans. He shoved a hand under the back of it and ran his fingers along her soft skin. He closed his eyes. Considering how aroused he was, he knew for sure they had to had to be glowing. The only other time they did that was when he was extremely angry, which he was far from being.
Needing skin-to-skin contact, Capac eased back enough to yank his shirt up and off, his lips leaving Riya’s for only a brief moment. He worked on undoing the buttons on her top, then pushed the material down her arms to drop onto the floor.
He ran a finger down the center of her chest, between her more-than-a-handful breasts to the front clasp of her bra. It didn’t take him long to undo it. Riya shrugged out of the undergarment and
