Taming the Beast novel Chapter 42

(Caroline’s POV)

I wasn’t exactly sure what happened, but all I knew was that Keegan and I were completing the mating process tonight, and that thought had me giddy. I felt more than great. I felt stronger, and almost a little invincible. Keegan snuck me out of the house and to the car. We managed to get to my house right at sunset without anybody catching us. As far as everyone else knew, we were still in the basement hospital. I walked up to my bathroom and took a quick shower; washing the sweat and dirt away. I towel dried my hair so my currently darker blonde hair was still damp and hanging wavy to the middle of my back. I walked out with the towel wrapped around my body tightly. Keegan was sitting on the edge of my bed. His eyes glanced down my body. I walked closer to him and his hands rested on my hips.

“Y-You’re mark is very faint now,” I said, slightly nervous. He smiled up at me.

“Don’t be nervous Care… it’s just me,” he said softly. His words were comforting. He stood in front of me and kissed me gently, his hands still on my hips. “I love you,” he muttered into my lips. I smiled against his lips as my hands went to the back of his neck, pulling him closer to me. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He turned and set me so my back was on the bed. His hands slowly undid the towel and tossed it aside. He pulled away and drank in my body with his eyes.

“I love you, Keegan,” I breathed, finally able to talk. His eyes were bright amber gold with no traces of black in them.

“You are so beautiful,” he breathed before his lips were on mine again fiercely. I moaned into his lips and tugged at the bottom of his shirt. He quickly pulled it over his head before he slipped out of his pants and boxers. He reached his hand down as his lips attached to my neck. I gasped and my mouth opened as his fingers teased me below. I moaned and arched my back slightly as his fingers dipped inside of me. My breathing picked up as he added more fingers, preparing me. I’d seen him fully before. I briefly wondered how he was going to fit. His fingers thrusts one last time before he rubbed his fingers over my aching womanhood and positioned himself between my legs. His lips left my body as he looked at me. His eyes searched my face full of lust and love.

“Are you ready?” he asked. I nodded, slightly out of breath. He hovered over me. I felt him at my entrance before he pushed into me. I screamed and immediately tried to push him out, but he stayed where he was.
