“I’ve picked up a few of your thoughts today,” I tell him.

His eyes shine with wonder. “You have? When?” he asks, excited.

“Once this morning, I heard you say sorry, and later, I picked up a few things. It’s pretty wonderful. I was worried it would feel weird, but it’s kind of comforting.” I shrug. “It doesn’t bother you?”

He grabs my hand and kisses my knuckles. “Not at all. Now that I’ve experienced it, I can’t imagine being without it. I can’t hear every thought, just some, but I cherish every one.”

I smile back at his enthusiasm and send him my thoughts, who would have thought the big, bad Alpha is a big, ole softy.

He laughs at me and jumps out of the car. “I’ll show you a softy,” he purrs into my ear when he grabs me around the waist from behind and grinds his very obviously, hard erection into me. Until the doorbell rings, he shows me exactly how wrong I was.

CHAPTER 26

I rush to the door after the third bell ring and find Sniffer banging loudly. “Hey, you two gonna come up for air soon?” He laughs as I snatch the door open and huff. My cheeks are red from his comments and because he was right about what we were doing.

“Stop trying to embarrass her,” Masen insists, coming down the stairs in tight black fatigues and a black t-shirt that looks molded to his body. Holy shit, we just got done making love, and my mouth still waters seeing him. His head snaps around to me, and he winks wickedly. I’m all gooey with love, as I sigh.

When he passes close to me, I scent him. He smells like us. Oh well, I know he doesn’t mind. It dawns on me I smell the same. Looking down at my yoga pants and t-shirt I threw on, I realize I don’t care either, which makes me smile. “Glad to hear it,” is whispered in my ear from behind. His hand clenches my hip, my back arches pushing my rear to make contact with his front. He hisses and smacks my butt with his free hand. The sting makes me suck in a breath through my teeth, but I push back even closer on instinct. His hand fists my long hair and tugs so my neck arches. “I have work to do, and you’re making me hard. Unless you want me to send my brother and Sam outside so I can fuck you on the table, you better stop.” He dips his hand into the front of my pants and tests my wetness. “Always so ready for me. No panties?” he questions as he widens my legs with his foot and pushes one finger inside me. My inner muscles spasm. “I love how greedy you are for me. I bet you wish this was my cock inside you,” he says confidently as his finger rims my opening before he plunges back in.
