The Alpha's Taboo Mate (Blood Moon Lynx Book 1) Read Online Free Page A

and paced the cabin, punching one fist into the other, muttering under his breath, but she didn’t need to hear his exact words to catch the emotion. She could feel the black aura surrounding him.
    The dangerous posture excited her as much as watching the muscles in his body flex while he walked. Her breathing grew quick, and her clit throbbed. She’d never been this aroused before. They were alone here. He had arranged it. This could happen, and then it would be done. Not even Hawke could reverse it. All she had to do was release the fear and give in.
    Finally, he stopped and faced her, his expression now filled with determination and lust. “There’s only one way to fix this, and you know what it is. I have to mark you as my mate. Today, while he’s away with his family. By the time they return, there will be nothing either of them can do.”
    Did it even matter which of them had read the other’s thoughts? They were of one mind right now, and if that didn’t prove they were truly mates, Fiera had no fucking clue what did.
    “Your family will be involved, too.”
    “I know that. They won’t care. We take care of each other. Fiera, don’t you understand? You’re my mate . I will not stand by and watch Hawke take you from me. They will not stand by and watch it. You are not alone in this. You and your father have my family behind you now. If you want me, too, there’s no reason for us to delay any longer. We have the backing of the Elders. The hell with Hawke and his family.”
    Everything he’d said was right. She had no one else to turn to or to trust. The Elders had made their decision, and if she allowed Hawke to continue, he’d defy them and break their law. They had recourse to deal with him for doing so, but the damage would be done. She would belong to Hawke forever. Any chance she’d have of being Canyon’s mate instead would be lost.
    “I do want you, Canyon. Only you. Do you forgive me for not telling you all this before?”
    “Yes.” He breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke. “Of course I do.”
    She couldn’t let Hawke claim her. She was meant to be with Canyon, and he was the only man she had ever wanted. She would do this. Right here and now. She would belong to Canyon for all eternity. It was what she’d wanted all her life, and only she had the power to make it happen.
     

Chapter Three
     
    This moment had happened so many times in his dreams, but this was no dream. This was real. Canyon was almost afraid to believe what he saw and heard, for fear he’d hallucinated it. Fiera had agreed to mate with him. She wanted him, and only him. This was finally going to happen.
    Every nerve ending was on fire as his cock throbbed with need. His heart filled with joy. His muscles grew taut, and he had trouble controlling the need to shift. The hair on his body seemed to stand at attention as he watched her face.
    The last thing he wanted was to hurt or frighten her, but the urge to devour her was so strong. He would have to be careful. Her brilliant blue eyes blazed with love and desire as he finally snapped out of his daze and pulled her into his arms.
    Kissing her earlier had been mind-blowing, but this time he slowed down to savor the experience. He teased her lips with his, reveling in the soft whimpers and moans his gesture produced. It took every ounce of willpower not to simply smash his lips against hers and shove his tongue into her mouth. He wanted to enjoy this, and more importantly, he wanted her to reach the very peak of her desire before he finally took her.
    When she parted her lips he eased his tongue inside, moaning along with her. He’d never felt anything so fucking exquisite in his life. If kissing her was this erotic, what the hell would happen when his cock finally slid into her pussy? He’d surely die of happiness.
    After she wrapped her arms around his waist, she moved one hand slowly down to grip his ass cheek. As soon as she did, Canyon started to shift. He held it
