I watched her through the haze of my rising hunger.

Raze was pacing so violently in the back of my mind that I could feel the itch of claws beneath my skin.

‘She is wearing your mark, Raze growled, his voice loud in my head. ‘I need to mark her too‘

“Be silent,” I commanded, but he just scoffed.

I was laying myself bare before her, exposing the only piece of my past that I still held dear to my heart.

My mother died while she was giving birth to me and my father gave me the heirloom as the only connection to her.

I was giving her the keys to my soul, trusting her not to leave me hollow.

Natalie looked at me, her eyes shimmering with a tenderness that made my breath hitch.

She was looking at me as if I were her salvation, just as much as she was mine.

“Baron.”

She spoke my name softly, cutting off the dark spiral of my thoughts.

I froze.

My heart gave a sudden thump against my

best wall.

“What is it?” I asked, trying to

voice steady.

“I want to kiss you.” She said shyly, looking me dead in the ev

The words hit me like a physical blow.

My eyes flew wide.

I had always known Natalie to be a little old–fashioned, a woman who carried herself with a quiet, reserved dignity.

She was the type who blushed if our hands lingered too long during a meal, yet here she was, in the heart of our home where the children might burst through the doors at any second, making a demand that set my blood on fire.

“What did you just say?” I breathed, convinced that Raze was playing tricks on my hearing.

The next second, I didn’t need an answer.

Natalie stood, her movements direct and purposeful, and cupped my face in her hands.

Her palms were warm, her skin soft, but the look on her face made my heart flutter.

She leaned in, and her beautiful lips pressed against mine.

The beast in me surged forward.

I didn’t just want a kiss; I wanted to consume her.

My arm clamped around her waist and in one sharp motion, I pulled her up onto the mahogany desk, scattering a few books to the floor,

The heat radiating off her filled the small room, making Raze go crazy.

She clutched my collar desperately as I pressed her back against the desk.

The fabric of my shirt gave way under her frantic, surprisingly powerful grip.

The buttons scattered across the d

floor with a sharp clatter that disrupted the quiet

room.

Both of us froze..

My chest was heaving, the cool air

hitting my bare skin where she had

torn the shirt open.

I looked down at her, and for a split second, I saw something that made my breath hitch.

Her

eyes – usually a deep brown seemed to swirl with a flicker of something different, a predatory gold that mirrored my own.

It was a flash of something ancient and wild.

I blinked, and the light was gone.

I shook my head internally.

It had to be the glow of the wall sconces or the way the moonlight shone.

There was no way that happened… was it?

‘Did you see that?‘ Raze roared, his tail sweeping with manic energy. ‘Is that?‘

“It was the lighting, Raze. Don’t get ahead of yourself,” I interrupted, though my heart was hammering a frantic rhythm.

Natalie’s hair was a mess of dark silk, her lips were swollen from my kiss, and she was flushed a deep, beautiful scarlet.

“I… I want to go to bed now,” Natalie stammered, her voice breathless as she realized the raw power she had unleashed in me. “The kids are… mmm…

Before she could finish the thought of retreat, I caught her again.

My hand went to the back of her head, my fingers tangling in her hair to hold her in place.

My kiss was forceful, sweeping away every bit of oxygen left in her lungs. I gave her no chance to argue, no chance to think about the children or anything.

“Baron…

Her voice was hoarse and breathy, a mix of shyness and a helpless sweetness that made Raze howl with triumph.

I broke the kiss just enough to trail my lips down to the

Inside, I was a wreck of nerves… I knew with absolute certainty that if she said no; if she told me she wasn’t ready, I would back away.

No matter how much my wolf screamed, no matter how much my body ached, I would never cross that line without her permission.

“What about the children?” she whispered.

‘She didn’t say no. Raze whispered as if she could hear him.

The light in my eyes flared.

She was considering it.

She was giving me a chance.

“Let Shauna watch them for two days,” I said, my voice thick with Raze’s presence. “They need to meet other wolves.”

It wasn’t just an excuse, though I would have used any logic to keep her to myself for forty- eight hours.

Natalie thought for a moment, her eyes searching mine, before she gave a small, decisive nød.
