Chapter 69 AURORA 1/5 I swallowed hard .


    What is it ? .


    He leaned in .


    Do you want to keep doing this ? My breath shuddered out of my chest .


    I dont know what I was expecting , but it wasnt this .


    This ? I asked .


    He gestured at the doors the wolves had just left through .


    This .


    Working with us .


    Ive failed to protect you .


    Ive used you of terrible things .


    Now my pack turns on you .


    Through it all , you have a poise and grace Ive never seen .


    Warmth started in my chest .


    I didnt want to fall for him again .


    Id spent so many years getting over Dane Montague .


    But when he spoke to me like this … tenderly .


    I could defend myself day in and day out against his anger .


    His disdain .


    I had no defense when he looked at me like this .


    Like he cared for me .


    Im all right , I said .


    Even though I wasnt all right .


    But for Chapter 69 once , it wasnt because of him or anything hed done .


    It was because of me … and what I might do to him .


    What if I got my memories back ? What if I became the evil woman whod written that journal ? Who wanted him dead ? Who served something unknown and dark ? 2/5 Danes eyes flicked across my face , light as butterfly kisses .


    His brows drew together .


    Youre holding something back from me .


    My cheeks heated .


    Hed never been able to read me before .


    But maybe that wasnt because he couldnt … it was because he chose not to .


    Now that he was choosing to see me , I didnt know if I could hide anything from him.


    Im okay , I said .


    Okay isnt good enough .


    But I suppose it leaves me room to make you feel … his eyes darkened and dropped to my lips , and instead of finishing his sentence , he kissed me .


    This was no gentle kiss .


    It was hard and passionate and desperate .


    Like hed been waiting all this time , hating every second he wasnt touching me .


    I gasped as he cupped my ass and lifted me , so I was sitting on the conference table .


    A hand braced against my ass kept me pressed hard against him as he devoured me , possessed me with lips and tongue and teeth .


    Chapter 69 First my mouth , then my jaw .


    He tangled a hand in my hair , pulling my head back and forcing me to arch into him .


    3/5 He wrapped my legs around his hips , and I groaned as I felt him harden , his cock pressed against my aching sex .


    I moaned , and he answered with a satisfied growl .


    Moan for again .


    Dane , I gasped as his mouth moved down , my neck to my corbone .


    Goddess , you taste so good , he breathed .


    I want to taste the sweetest part of you .


    I want to hear you scream in pleasure before we leave this room .


    me He paused in his exploration of my corbone and his eyes met mine .


    They were hot , but serious .


    Do you want that ? My mouth on you until youe ? He tilted his head down , his gaze intensifying .


    I can never change what Ive done in the past .


    But let me start to bnce the scales .


    Let me make you feel good .


    I breathed in slowly .


    Say no , Imanded myself .


    Dont let him get closer to you .


    Dont fall in love with him again .


    But when I spoke , the word that came out wasnt know .


    It was a breathless , longing , Yes .


    He stood me up and yanked my skirt up to my hips , then hooked his first fingers in either side of my underwear and yanked it Chapter 69 down .


    4/5 When it didnte down fast enough for his taste , he shredded it as easily as if it were paper .


    Ill buy you more , he said .


    Then he sat me back on the table , the wood cool against my bare ass .


    He had me nt one foot on the floor and put the other over his shoulder .


    Gently , he ran his fingertips over the skin of my inner thighs .


    His thumb gently circled a small mole so close to the crease where my thighs met my hips it shot pleasure straight to my core .


    If his touch did this much to me , I wasnt going to survive this .


    I was going to melt right into this table .


    This is a ce I should know well , he whispered , kissing the inside of my knee .


    He worked his way up ; nting kisses every few inches .


    Eight years , we could have been together .


    Eight years , I couldve been exploring you like this .


    But what I didnt do then , Ill make up to you now .


    He kissed higher .


    I wanted to let my head fall back , but when I did , he bit me lightly .


    I jumped a little , but his big hands held me firmly in ce .


    Chapter 69 Watch me .


    I want you to see when I put my mouth on you .


    I want you to understand how much I enjoy tasting you .


    5/5 I was already a wet , whimpering mess for him .


    I wanted to feel him between my legs .


    His mouth , his fingers , his cock .


    Anything to relieve the ache .


    But ….


    Dane , were in a conference room .


    Anyone who wants to speak with you could walk in at any moment .


    Anyone could see … Let them .


    You were my mate once .


    Let them see me im you again .


    im ? I gasped .


    He couldnt mean what I thought he did .


    Dane …
