I worry about myself, a little, just passively, as Jackson kisses me. Because something about the way that his mouth moves against mine makes me…just…really, really stupid.
Honestly, all logic is gone from my head – all thoughts, all sense, all practicality.
It’s almost like all of my wolf’s crazy impulses – which I usually think are so ridiculous - come to the forefront, and they all make a great deal of sense. Because the only thing I want to do right now is strip off my clothing, and climb on top of him, and let him do whatever the hell he wants to my body – just take…complete control.
I am all instinct and impulse now as I lose myself in Jackson, as he bends me backwards, slightly, in his arms, levering his body over mine even as he holds me tight, dominating me and demonstrating in the same moment how incredibly precious I am to him.
His hand moves slowly down my side as his tongue dips into my mouth, and my hips rise up against him, seeking friction, wanting to be touched as his hand moves lower to take a firm grip on my ass. I moan, deep and shuddering, as Jackson presses me tighter against him and then lets his hand dip further in, his fingers just barely tracing the hot core of me through the fabric of my cadet uniform.
My head falls back on my neck at this touch, a panting gasp escaping my lips.
“Fuck, Ari,” Jackson growls, tucking his face against my neck and then pressing his cheek to my chest. But he moves his hand away, back to my ass and then slipping down my thigh to tuck safely behind my knee.
I lift my head, confused, foggy. I frown to see Jackson’s frustrated expression, his clenched teeth.
Slowly he shakes his head at me as I blink at him, coming back to myself.
And then I laugh, covering my face with my hands, groaning a little as I do – because I can sense his emotions now, sense just how much he wants to continue precisely what we were doing just a few seconds ago.
But…he’s right. We can’t do any of that right now. Nothing has changed.
And we have…we have got to find some semblance of self-control and resist getting lost in each other. This is the Examination, after all.
