36 - Greta


    My emotions are a storm raging inside me, a confusing mix of anger, frustration, and something darker. Part of me aches to confront Janelle, to make her pay for everything she''s done. Honestly, I never cared for her much-she and Amy always acted like they were too important to get their hands dirty with real work. Their focus was always on climbing thedder, grabbing power, and now I understand the reason behind it. But knowing that doesn''t lessen how much they irritate me. Even if Janelle isn''t the mastermind behind this whole mess, she will bear the brunt of the me. Everyone in this pack will pin the worst of it on her, and I''m certain it''s personal. This isn''t just business; it''s deeply, painfully personal.


    A sudden kiss on my neck pulls me out of my swirling thoughts, and I catch my breath at the electric sensation. "They''ve got this handled. Grant said we should leave before he throws up," Finn murmurs quietly near my ear, his warm breath sending a shiver of goosebumps across my skin. It dawns on me that Janelle and her team aren''t alone with us, which makes Finn''s distraction even more dangerous. I realize I''ll have to be careful around him; his charm is a weapon all its own. Without warning, Finn lifts me effortlessly by my thighs, and I instinctively wrap my legs around his waist as he begins to walk. It feels almost silly, but for the first time in my life, I don''t mind being so exposed and vulnerable. I crave every inch of contact with him, as if it''s the only thing grounding me right now.


    "So much for being thrown against the nearest tree,” I tease, half-joking. The skin- to-skin sensation is intoxicating, and I can''t deny the electric thrill of the steel pipe pressing against my clit as we move. I might actuallye just from this alone. A soft whimper escapes me, though I try to hold it back—I''m not sure if I seed.


    "Oh, I''ll still take you against a tree," Finn growls lowly, "but no one gets to see you when youe. That''s for my eyes and ears only." His hands tighten on my hips, and I can feel the hunger radiating from him, stirring a fresh wave of heat inside me. I''m sure the air around us is thick with desire.


    "Then you better get me the hell out of here... now, or I won''t give you a choice," I whisper, pressing a kiss to his neck, matching his movements. A deep rumble vibrates through his chest, and I make a mental note to coax that sound out as often as possible. Despite the intensity, he doesn''t falter or stumble; he''s inplete control. Yet, the slight twitch in his jaw betrays how close he is to losing it. Part of me wants to push him over the edge, while the other half agrees this moment should be ours alone, away from prying eyes.


    "Fuck, baby. You''ve got to stop grinding on me like that," he growls.


    "I''m not doing anything," I say, feigning innocence while tilting my hips against him. It feels too good to stop, and I''m soaking wet for him.


    "Fuck it!" he snaps just before I feel the rough bite of bark against my back. "You wanna y, mate?" His hand slides between us, rubbing his hardness through my slick folds, and an involuntary moan slips out of me. "Do you like that?” he whispers, peppering my corbone with kisses. I close my eyes, nodding, savoring the delicious sensation. "I need words, pretty girl," he demands, pressing against me again.


    "Oh! Yes. I need more, please," I gasp. A small, feminist voice in my mind tells me I should y harder to get, make him work for it, but I can''t even pretend right now. I need this too badly. I''ve kept us apart for far too long.


    His breath brushes against my ear and neck as he whispers, "I love it when you beg me. Will you say it again?" His grip on my ass tightens, perhaps rough enough to leave bruises, as he continues to assault my clit with relentless thrusts.


    “Please.....” I gasp, struggling to steady my breathing enough to speak. "I need you inside me... now, Finn... please. OH FUCK!” I cry out as he plunges into me hard. I cling to him, digging my nails into his shoulders as he drives into me again and again. I never imagined I could surrender control sopletely, but this—this is pure heaven.


    His nose nudges mine, pulling me back to the present as he pounds into me. I open my eyes to see them flickering between his human gaze and his wolf''s fierce intensity. Without hesitation, I crash my lips against his in a bruising kiss that sends us both spiraling over the edge. He swallows my cry of pleasure as he fills me with his release, then continues to rock me gently until I am left trembling and spent, riding out two more waves of ecstasy.
