Chapter 18: A Possible Future

Sophie

Did he just say he was going to kiss me?

I look down at his lips - full, soft, warm-looking lips and I wonder what it would feel like to be kissed by this man. Everything he has said has made me feel safer and more loved than I've felt since I ran away from home. It's dangerous because it's intoxicating.

"I...." I begin.

He growls low, sending heat through my body and straight to

my core.

"I warned you," he says and slides a hand into my hair as his mouth gently presses against mine. His lips are just as warm and soft as they looked. I melt into the kiss, my very first kiss.

He has one hand splayed on my back, holding me to him, the other slides into my hair, gently tugging my head to the side. As soon as I do, he deepens the kiss, running his tongue of the seam of my lips. I gasp and his warm tongue slides into my mouth, gently coaxing my tongue to join his.

My hands slide up his chest and I feel his body shiver at my touch. He growls again, this time it's a deep, primal, possessive growl as he deepens the kiss even further. I can only hold on to him, overwhelmed by the feelings that he's conjuring in my body, the swirling of emotions in my mind.

When he finally pulls away, we're both panting. He presses his forehead to mine and I feel his heart beating just as fast as mine is.

"You taste just as sweet as you smell," he says. When I look, his eyes are closed and he's licking his lips, as if he can't get enough of my taste. When he pulls his head away from mine, he looks at me with grey eyes that have darkened to a nearly charcoal color with his desire for me.

"We need to get moving. You smell entirely too delicious to be left in the open like this," he says, stepping back and sliding his hand out of my hair and down my arm to intertwine our fingers together.

He turns and begins walking, leading me away from the river. I can still feel the tingling sensation on my lips. I turn and look at the river. When I got here early this morning, I was trying to scrub the scent and feel of Alpha Owen off of me.

I look at Hunter. Now, all I want is to feel his mouth on mine again and to roll myself all over him until I'm covered in his scent.
