Predator's Refuge (28 page)
“Maybe you should try a long-distance relationship first,” her dad had suggested with a wry curl to his lip. However, one look at her mom, his mate, and Marci could see he’d realized it wasn’t an option.
Mates could only be together.
They’d supported her from then on, especially when they saw how Anton idolized her, practically eyeing her every step to see she didn’t fall. God forbid she should ever scrape her knee in his presence. It might cause him to suffer the vapors.
“I’ll be happy to visit, too,” he said in his deep drawl, caressing her breast. “After all, I met my mate on Gemini Island. Next to Disney World, it’s the happiest place on earth.”
She socked him in the shoulder. “Silly tiger.”
He lowered his head and grunted happily into her shoulder. “This tiger has a present for you.”
“I know.” She caressed his ass, holding him tight against her. “A big, thick one.”
He looked up. “Not that … yet.” He rolled off her and reached into the drawer of the bedside table, pulling out a rather flat gift bag. He handed it to her, his face pink with happiness. “Open it.”
She looked at the silver bag with curiosity, and then narrowed her eyes at him. She reached into the bag, and felt the telltale shape of a record album. Gasping, she pulled out Rosemary Clooney’s greatest hits. Tears immediately flooded her eyes. “Oh, Anton.”
He pointed at Rosemary, giving the singer a stern frown. “I’ll have you know I had to outbid a very wily collector for that on eBay. He was such a weasel, but I prevailed.” He hopped out of bed, grabbed the album, and motioned to an old record player next to his shiny, modern sound system on the far wall. “Which track?”
“One.” Marci watched him walk over to the record player, in awe of his manly beauty. Just witnessing the gorgeous flex of his ass muscles had her opening her legs under the sheets in anticipation. As the opening strains of “You Started Something” began to play, Anton turned and stalked back to her. He moved with the sensuality of an erotic dancer and with the finesse of a faith healer. His gaze always on her, he grinned and his taut cock bobbed for her. “So, you think we have some time before we have to head out?”
“Not as much time as I’d like, but enough to make you come with me.” He crawled back into bed, pulled down the sheet covering her, and stared at her body with pure hunger.
“No foreplay,” she said on a moan, extending her hand to him. “Just take me.”
Anton grinned and situated himself between her legs, spreading them. Her heart sped up as she waited for the inevitable, delectable invasion. She never knew what he would do to her, whether he would be gentle or rough, teasing or tender. She loved it all, every last expression of his love for her. As he teased her entrance for just a moment, her pussy reacted and she felt the moisture seep between her inner lips, coating her outer labia. He slid a finger along her seam, and his eyes widened in appreciation of her wetness. He then thrust his hardened length inside her in one delicious thrust.
Marci threw back her head, so excited to be joined to her mate yet again. No matter how many times they made love, it never stopped being new and adventurous. Each coupling only brought them closer, strengthening the connection first made across a customer service desk at the Ursa Lodge. Her lynx now occupied a permanent spot next to his very possessive tiger, and she could almost see the animals in their own tight clutches.
Anton kissed her, exploring her mouth with his tongue, and then gazed into her eyes. Driving deeper inside her, he whispered, “You are my life.”
And as ecstasy claimed her, her kitten purred.
