Chapter 20

Aden

Hudson meets my eyes then, seeing the truth in my words. Finally.

I'm glad to see that he seems to rise to the challenge. Perhaps this is what it will take to make Hudson the man and wolf he needs to be: the right woman.

"You should probably go talk to her," I tell him, dismissing him and nodding toward the upper floor where Brooklyn is.

Hudson sets his jaw and leaves. Before the door closes behind him, I see him paused at the foot of the staircase as if he's deciding whether or not to follow my advice.

I sink down into the big leather chair behind my desk again, staring at the closed door, and suddenly feel...dammit.

For a just a moment, I imagine what it would be like to climb those stairs myself, to open Brooklyn's door while she's getting ready for bed. Taking off her earrings, then turning to stare at me with those wide blue eyes.

What it would be like to take two steps forward and grab her, pull her to me, make her gasp as I fist a hand in the hair at the base of her scalp and pulled her head back, exposing that long white neck.

To feel the moan echoing inside her chest, her breasts pressed against my chest, her hard nipples as I grind my hips against hers, my hard cock pressed between us.

My canines would drop, and once I had her naked, plunging myself into her, I'd bite her, mark her, make her mine completely.

I could show her, then, what it was to be a good wife, a good mate. To become subservient, to learn how to anticipate my needs, to see how good it could be for both woman and wolf to submit.
