Mine.”
She gulped and continued driving back into each of his plunges. Tension curled around her belly into a tight knot. “Caleb, I--”
“I’m not stopping. Not until your pussy is wrapped tightly around my cock and you’re left shaking from how hard you come. And trust me, sweetheart, you will come that hard.”
Oh, she knew that was a definite. She mumbled under her breath about him taking too long.
“You want to come, baby. I know you do.” He increased the speed of his thrusts. “You want my dick deep and far. As far as I can get. You want my mate stamp on you from the inside.” He took a rough breath. “You want me to give you the pups you’ve been secretly wanting, baby girl.” He nibbled on her shoulder. “I want them, too.”
His hand curled around her belly, sliding between her legs to play with her clit. She mewled, wiggling back into his harsh drives. More. More. More. She was so fucking close.
All it took was a few flicks of his finger on her aching pleasure center in combination with his deep plunges and she was gone. The orgasm tore through her like a category five hurricane. It left her breathless, shaking and ready to fall apart. Only with Caleb could she open up enough to lose herself in how he made her feel.
She was still riding the wave when he pressed tightly into her, his cock pulsing inside. He came with a loud howl. Loud enough everyone in the house probably heard, but at that moment, she couldn’t have cared less.
He sat on the grass with her on his lap. It allowed them a brief bonding moment without being with the others. He held her close to him, tilting her face to meet her gaze.
“No matter what happens, know this: I love you. I always have. I always will. I’d die for you.”
She inhaled hard and let her words out slowly. “It is because I love you as much as I do that I would never let you give up your life for me. I’d rather stand by your side and die together. You’re mine, Caleb. And I’m not losing you. Not now. Not ever.”

Ellie entered the kitchen with Caleb in tow. Her mother was putting rolls into a basket with a red and white checkered towel covering it. Her mother looked at her and Caleb’s joined hands and smiled. “Good, you’re just in time. Wash your hands and come sit.”
Ellie’s face flushed red on her way to the sink. While he’d diverted her attention outside with sex, her mind was set. She was helping him whether he wanted her to or not.
Caleb chuckled and squeezed her hand. “What are you blushing for?”
She turned on him with a “duh” look on her face. “Mom didn’t need to look at our hands to know we’re still together. All she had to do was breathe.” He could only smile. She rolled her eyes. Men. “I’m taking a quick shower. Be right ba—”
“No.” Caleb squeezed her hand tighter. “I want my scent on you.” Her belly fluttered. He held her captive with his dominating gaze. “Besides, it’s just your family.”
“Exactly,” Ellie huffed, “it’s my family. I’d rather be in front of strangers than listen to my brothers’ smart-ass remarks I know will be said.” Despite her words, she loved having his scent on her. Heck, if it were up to her, she’d have him mark her all over. He was hers and she was more than happy for others to know. Others she wasn’t related to.
“Nah, they wouldn’t say anything,” he growled softly, the sound shooting arousal to her pussy. Not good. Not only was she turned on again, but they’d all know she and Caleb were doing a lot more than talking on their walk.
Caleb gave her that grin that turned her knees to melted butter. It wasn’t going to work. She propped a hand on her hip. “Hello? Have you met my brothers? Obviously not, if you think that.”
He kissed her hard and fast and for a second she forgot what they were arguing about. Then he tugged her toward the dining room. “Stop being so worried. I’m hungry. Let’s eat.”
They sat
