trailer that acted as Henry’s office. It was parked along the side of the city hall building, providing a perfect hide-away for what he had in mind.
    The weight of Jagger’s gaze pressed against Ally’s skin like the weight of a needy mouth. Or a hungry cock. He was looking at her the way she wanted him to look at her. So hungry that he didn’t know how to control himself. A shiver rolled down her back as she moved with him. He’d taken her behind the trailer, away from prying eyes. She gasped when he shoved her against the brick wall of the building.
    She reached out and trailed her hand down the shirt covering his chest. The buttons were done up so nice and tidy. No wrinkles marred the crisp linen surface. It held the silver gleam of his badge. His gaze jumped from her face to her hand, but he didn’t take a step backward. The wild bubbling in her blood rushed faster now, but she wasn’t afraid of the sensation. Instead, she felt womanly and powerful. She was reaching for what she wanted, unafraid of the hurt that might follow.
    She shivered.
    “You’re cold.”
    “Maybe a little. Are you going to keep me warm?” Innocence, seduction, and sin filled the smile she gave him. The air around them stilled and the rest of the world faded away leaving nothing but her and Jagger, together in this moment in time. There was no mistaking the want in his dark eyes. The moment had presented itself and she wasn’t going to let it slip away. Ally’s lips tingled and she moistened them with the tip of her tongue. The movement brought his gaze downward. Stretching onto the tips of her toes, she placed one hand on his jaw. Taking the chance he’d completely reject her, she touched her lips to his.
    In an instant, he took control of the kiss, covering her mouth with his in the sweetest, most honest kiss she’d ever known. Their first kiss was everything it should be. Urgent yet respectful. Passionate yet tender. His hands settled on her hips and her palms rested on his chest. 
    “Jagger.” The soft whisper of his name seemed to break him and his legendary control.
    Jagger snarled Ally’s name as his mouth took hers again, the softness of before gone, burned away in a flash of need. His mouth captured hers, made it his. She was the girl-next-door, the schoolteacher, the woman who had been driving him insane for the past six months. She tasted wild and when her soft lips opened beneath his, he pushed his tongue into her mouth with a hunger he had never felt.
    There was no hunger like this. The hunger a bear shifter had for his mate.
    He jerked her against him, letting her feel what she did to him. He tangled her hair in his hand and pulled back her head, exposing her throat. She would be terrified if she realized the raw, sexual need he was experiencing.
    “You make me crazy. Feel what you do to me, baby. How hard you make me.” He sucked her tongue into his mouth and she writhed against him, her soft belly rubbing against his cock. He pressed his leg between hers, against her mound and drew a deep, needy groan from the back of her throat. When she tried to break away, he held her fast, holding her head still for his kiss and to protect her from the bite of the brick wall at her back.
    His hand eased beneath the hem of her sweater. The first heated contact with her skin had his bear roaring to be set free. He loved the curves he found there, the indention of her waist. His hand moved higher and he palmed her left breast. He was a big man, a big bear, and had big hands. She filled them perfectly. He felt his claws extend, wanting to remove the barrier of her sweater and bra. Knowing he couldn’t do that, not yet anyway, he deepened the kiss and pressed her closer. His body was burning with need now, almost out of control. From just a taste of her.
    He wanted to go up in flames.
    He ended the kiss and moved his mouth along her jaw and down her throat. He savored her scent. He licked the skin where her neck joined her
