“Vester is there, too. And… Clayton.” Lucas watches me with caution. “Clayton is a good friend. A good alpha.”
“Yes. He’s a good friend.” The emphasis on the word doesn’t go unnoticed, and I watch his shoulders relax slightly. “I need to talk to Clayton, too. About toface conversation.”
He brings my hand to his lips, dropping a soft kiss against the back of it. “Come back to me, Ava.”
His words are strained, as if he’s holding himself back from saying the words he really wants to say.
Walking around the table between us, I reach out to touch his face, my fingers brushing against the harsh stubble on his cheek, tracing the dark circles beneath his eyes.
I can see the exhaustion, the toll of this day.
And yet he’s here with me, putting me first.
Listening to the insanity of my world.
Not once berating me or making me feel less than.
He leans into my touch like a man starved of affection, his eyes. drifting closed as he lets out a long, slow breath.
My heart aches as I lean forward, brushing my lips against his in a gentle kiss. He shudders, his hand coming up to cup the back of my head with gentle
Tender. Sweet. Peaceful.
A moment for lovers.
I’ve kept him at a distance for so long, walls up to protect my heart. But in doing so, I’ve hurt him too. Damaged the fragile roots of what we’ve been grow
I need to make this right, as much as he has.
My efforts need to match his.
Can I do that?
His other arm wraps around my waist as he stands, the angle of our kiss deepening as he yanks me flush against his body.
The sweet moment slides into something else, his mouth slanting against mine, his tongue invading my warmth, his hand tugging my head back by my h
There’s desperation in his desire, as though I’ve opened the floodgates with my affection.
My hands slide into his hair, fingers tangling in the dark strands. I pour everything I feel into the kiss. All the words I’m not ready to say.
I’m sorry. I’m here. I’m yours.
Lucas’ grip tightens, his strong arms banding around me like steel. Unbreakable. Inescapable.
But I don’t want to escape. I want to burrow deeper into his embrace and never leave.
He walks me backwards, and I trust him to guide me, focused on the frenzied kiss and his hands sliding over my body. After a small eternity, my calves b
His weight settles over me, grounding and thrilling all at once.
I break the kiss, panting for air. His eyes meet mine, molten gold full of hunger and need. But beneath that, a vulnerability. A silent question.
Do you really want this? Want me?
“Lucas,” I breathe, one hand cupping his face. “I—“
But he swoops down again, rough against my lips.
Restless and urgent, I yank his shirt up and slide my hands down the hard planes of his abdomen, trying to unbutton his jeans by feel.
“Wait” he mutters against my lins and I shake my head.
“I don’t want to. We only have an hour.”
He groans. “Fuck. Ava, I didn’t mean to start this.”
“Shut up and take your clothes off, alpha.” I shove him off me, struggling onto my knees, yanking my shirt over my head and unhooking my bra in a swift motion. My confidence is fake, but my desire is real.
He watches me with dark eyes and parted lips, and it isn’t until I reach for his jeans again that he finally moves, tearing off his clothes in wild movements
“I don’t think I can hold back,” he warns me, as I shimmy my panties down my legs.
I laugh a little, my nerves kicking in. “I’m not asking you to.”

There’s a smile hiding in his eyeslike he’s laughing at me. The jerk.
“Lucas, just…”
“I know.” His finger traces between my legs, so close yet so far. “I’m going to give you everything you need.”
“Then do it already.” I sound breathless, even to my own ears, as his finger dips between my folds.
He teases me. Just a touch of his finger, slick and sure, skating over my clit, making me jump and moan.
“You’re so wet, love. Did you know?”
“Mmm.” My answer is nothing more than a hum of pleasure at his touch.
“No, you didn’t know.” He rubs my clit with more pressure, pressing into my core with his palm.
I want to deny it, but my body betrays me with a soft sigh as my hips push into his hand.
“You are so,” he murmurs, pressing me open and dipping into my core with one finger. “So responsive.”
