269 Don't Tempt Me!

Ember could not deny Draven's claim as those strange things her body was feeling became more manageable the moment his body's heat embraced her. Though there was an urge, it was more subtle now. She no longer felt the same unbearably painful urge due the effect of the full moon, and her body felt somewhat satisfied, replacing the painful desire with a mere need to be close to her mate. His scent calmed her senses and she felt like it should be fine to snuggle back into that comforting embrace. 

She wanted to close her eyes and sleep as he said, but she could not make herself do so. At this moment, all her senses were heightened. She could feel the hot minty breath at the back of her neck that showed he was not as calm as his words showed. 

Her heart started to beat fast, thrumming like a drum inside her chest, and her breathing turned shallow at their intimacy. Unknown to her, her body started to expect more.
