UNDER THE MOONLIGHT (2)

Darling,

Kiss me like you need

To feel safe

Because my lips want to know

All the places

You have been hurt

So, they can make all the pain drift away.

I was lying beside you

And you had this half smile

Because my hands

Were drifting down your spine.

And you looked at me

And I lost track of everything

Because I realized

Just how badly

I want under your skin.

"I want you, Iris, will you give yourself to me?"

The words reverberated in her ears and echoed in her heart. Above them, the moon hid behind the clouds, as if it too got shy hearing the bold declaration of the Alpha.

He wanted her, he wanted his mate.

He took her away from the pack house, so they wouldn't be bothered by anything or anyone and for tonight, only the two of them would matter.
