Fane shuddered and that ht to herself She let her breath flow over his ear as she told him "How do you like theet away from her mouth and she could see the rise and fall of his back – he was breathing quickly She found herself rather intrigued by his behavior She could not think of a time that Trent had responded to her like that…Oops She’d let her wall down during that thought

Fane stood up so abruptly that Jacque fell forward and had to catch herself to keep fro her rooitation

"Fane, I’ to think about the physical part ofyour reactions…" Jacque tried to explain, hoping to cal a hole in her carpet

"Jacquelyn, you are not helping," he told her with a growl "I realize you do not understand the intensity of e my nature In the wild, wolves mate for life, and a male ill kill any who tries to take his mate It is the same with my species I realize this Trent," Fane said his nanance, "was a part of your life and you can’t change that It’s not that I dislike him as a person, it’s just that I am jealous of the obvious affection you felt and still feel for him I don’t like the fact that you were intiht alone" Fane closed his eyes and took slow, deep breaths, pressing his fingers on the bridge of his nose

When he looked up at Jacque, she could see the struggle going on inside hiive her the space she needed because she had not grown up with his kind, he could not expect her to just accept his ithout cos in such ht in absolutes Jacque was his hts should be for hiive herself to hi hiot up off the bed and walked to hia to seduce him, she only wanted to reassure him In that moment, she realized she wanted to be his and she desperately wanted him to be hers and no other’s

She put her arms around his waist and laid her head on his chest Fane answered her unspoken thought "I am only yours, my Luna I was yours from my first breath and will be until my last"

Jacque closed her eyes as tears ran slowly down her cheeks She pulled him closer to her as his hands rubbed her back and he kissed the top of her head When she pulled back to look up at hi Jacque had ever experienced

Fane kissed her forehead, her eyes, her cheeks, and her nose; he kissed her chin and when she thought she couldn’t wait any longer, he kissed her lips It was soft and slow and sweet Jacque let out a soft rowl He increased the pressure of his lips on hers and the kiss became much more passionate

Finally, Fane pulled away and leaned his forehead against hers To Jacque’s relief he was just as breathless as she, and it took him a moood night, love, oryour virtue pure until we are bonded ht take a backseat to my hormones," he said honestly, completely unashamed at his obvious desire for her

Jacque so She didn’t want to be separated from him for even a minute, but she knew her ht, nohere to protect you and your mom If at any point you feel unsafe, call to me I realize yourmated, but I need you to understand, your safety comes first and I will not leave you unprotected just to appease your mom Do you understand this?" Fane asked her earnestly

Jacque knew herat their house everyday, and that idea suited her just fine
