Devon’s forehead creased.“What’s getting worse,” he said.Did Kallan do something to Sarah while she was held captive?Why didn’t I ask?

“I don’t know how to explain it.It’s painful and...”She leaned closer and whispered.“Arousing.”She gave Talen a side glance.

Devon could smell her arousal.It hadn’t been this strong before.He should have noticed she wasn’t as desperate as she should have been during her transformation.“Oh shit.”

Talen looked between them.His look concerned.“What’s going on?”

“I think the emotional bond acted as a partial buffer during Sarah’s transformation.Now that it’s gone.”He didn’t want to say the rest.His brother would know.

Talen turned to Cade.“We’ll secure the building,” he said, grabbing the key and locking the door, they left.

Sarah had a suspicious look on her face.“What do you mean a buffer?What is happening to me?”Her look hardened.“If my bones start breaking again, I will go psycho cat on your ass.”

He stifled his laugh at her audacity.“No babe.It’s nothing like that.Physically you have finished your transformation.However, I think that chemically you are still in heat.”

She contemplated his words.“The bond helped with this.That’s what you were telling Talen.”

Devon nodded.“I never considered there was a chemical component to the bond between us.Since it was injected into my mother and passed to me it makes sense though.”

“If that’s true there may be a way to get it back...If you want to.”

If possible, he wanted his bond with Sarah returned.“Perhaps.The only thing that matters right now is you.”

She ran a finger along his cheekbone.“All this time I wanted you it wasn’t our bond it was just me being ridiculously attracted to you?”

Devon smiled.“I can’t express how grateful I am that my mate wants me, but I assure you my need for you is far greater.”

Sarah closed her eyes taking a long breath.“I’m pretty sure that at the moment I need sex more than you do.”

Devon put his hands on either side of her face till she opened her eyes.“When I take you, it’s not just sex.I am making love to you with my mind.My body.My soul.You are my mate.My only reason for existence.My reward in this life.”

“I love everything you just said, but can I ask a favor?”

“I would do anything for you,” he said.

“Can we discuss this again after you make love to me?”

His lips descended on hers.His tongue thrusting deep inside the warm heat of her mouth.She clutched at him urgently, needing him.He felt powerful.Strong.His mate wanted him.Needed him.He was the only being in the world that could sate her hunger and he thanked God for it.

Her hands slid along the skin on his back, clutching, scratching.He wanted that desperation from her.Needed it.

He ripped her shirt from her body, shredding the flimsy material.He unclasped her bra, lifting her into a straddled position as he walked her to her room, laying her on the bed.

He broke their kiss to pull her pants and underwear from her body.He looked down at her glistening pussy.“Spread your legs, Sarah,” his voice rumbled.

Her eyes closed slowly as she opened herself to him.“Open your eyes,” he commanded.

She snapped her eyes open, looking at him with amber eyes.Her cat so close.

He undid the button on his jeans.“Put your hand between your legs.I want to see you pleasure yourself.”

He saw a flicker of uncertainty before her hand slipped between her legs.She was tentative at first.Tiny strokes over her clearly engorged bud.

He slipped his pants off, stroking himself as he watched her.

Her eyes fell to his hands as they gripped his hard shaft.“I want you,” she said through heavy breaths.

He kneeled on the bed, pushing her legs farther apart, “I want to see your fingers inside that tight cunt of yours.I want them dripping in your juices when I lick them from your fingers,” he growled.
