Chapter 241
Aaron drags me back down to the soft rug in front of the fire, stripping clothes from my body faster than
I can keep track of
Between his deep, drugging kisses and the way his hands are thoroughly yet gently working my body
into a frenzy, I am completely overwhelmed.
But in the best way possible.
Aaron murmurs words of praise and love against my skin, exploring me like we’ve never done this
before, like it’s all brand new and we’re just discovering each other for the first time.
And maybe in a way we are.
We’re in an entirely new chapter of our life, after all.
Plus, in so many ways, I feel like I’ve been reborn over and over.
The person I’ve become now is so different to the woman I was a year ago.
I’m a mother now.
I have my wolf.
I’m an Alpha again.
And I’m mated with Aaron in a way I spent countless nights dreaming about in the darker days of our
marriage when I wondered over and over if I was even worth anything at all.

Questioned what the point of my existence even was, if I was nothing more than an empty sacrifice to
maintain peace needed for a war that I wasn’t even a part of
But now I think I can see how all that led me here.
How maybe I needed to go through the hard times-the terrible times when all hope seemed lost-to truly
appreciate what I have here and now with Aaron.
My thoughts soon scatter as Aaron intensifies his sensual assault on my body.
By the time he pushes my legs wide and begins to slide into me, I’m wet and achy with need.
Aaron plunges himself deep inside me, and I swear I feel it down to my very soul.
I can’t help but cry out, which only spurs Aaron on harder and faster
He owns me, every part of me, body and heart.
Things have always been intense between us, but now it’s like there’s this extra layer of pleasure
washing back and forth between us, like somehow, I can feel his ecstasy as well as my own, and vice
versa.
And layered over all that again is our love, which just makes everything even more acute.
It’s like I almost can’t stand it.
Like it’s too much.
But at the same time, if I don’t get more if Aaron doesn’t complete me the way I know only he can then
I might die from wanting.
However, these feelings can’t last forever, not with the way they’re building and building.
Just as I can feel myself about to go over the edge, my wolf suddenly grabs some of my control.
My fangs slip out and I yank Aaron down, biting into his neck-the same place an Alpha usually bites his
mate to claim her just as pleasure explodes through me..
2/2
Aaron shouts, and I feel his climax reverberating through me.
It’s so strong and intense, I can’t tell where my pleasure ends and his begins.
For a long moment after, both of us are frozen, panting, coming down from a high so extreme I have no
idea how we didn’t crash and burn.
Eventually, Aaron rolls off me and collapses at my side on the rug.
“What the hell, Leah,” he says with a disbelieving laugh.
“What?” I ask, feeling a little bashful now that it’s all over.
I don’t know what happened, just that my wolf took over right at the critical moment and I was acting on
instinct alone.
H
You claimed me,” Aaron says. “Like a real Alpha.”

mated, so what would it even do?”
“I don’t know,” Aaron replies thoughtfully, rubbing the middle of his chest. “I’ve never heard of two
Alphas being mated both ways before. I don’t even know if that’s possible. But… I think I feel more
connected to you.”
Aaron glances at me, a question in his expression and I nod shyly
“I feel more connected to you as well, but I didn’t know if that was just the mating bond we already
have, or because 1 love you so
much.”
Aaron smiles, and then leans in to kiss me. “I love you, too.”
I feel like I need to pinch myself.
I never thought Aaron would so easily say he loved me, or that he would say it so often.
“And while I wish we could stay here like this forever, just you, me and Ethan, we can’t ignore the world
forever. Not while there’s still some unknown threat out there.”
“You don’t think this all ends, now that Adam and Tobin are both dead?” I ask, even though I know
myself things aren’t that easy.
“Someone else on the Council was helping Tobin,” Aaron replies “Maybe more than one person. Last
night was probably just the beginning”
“The beginning of what?” I ask with trepidation.
“The beginning of a new pack war.”
