that was silly.
    “What are you thinking?” he asked hoarsely, staring at her from his chair. His long legs were propped up on the windowsill, and his expression was pensive.
    “I’m thinking maybe we should be lovers,” she said quietly.
    His gaze snapped to hers. “Lovers?” he scoffed. “That’s too polite a term for what I’m thinking.”
    “Oh?” she asked, watching his expression darken.
    “Yes,” he said simply.
    “It’s been a long time since I’ve been with someone who made me feel good. As long as I’m here, and you’re willing, why can’t it be with you?”
    He stood in the blink of an eye and started pacing again. She wanted to pull off his pants and take him in her hands. Bad Mara was out, and she liked it.
    He’ll hurt you , a voice inside her said.
    Yes, but I’m already hurt , she answered.
    “Look, why are you doing this?” he asked, putting his hands on his hips, which only served to make him look sexier somehow. “You were brought here as part of a scam by my matchmaking dad and then were blown off by me, and you’re on the run from something huge and trying to heal…”
    She scooted to the edge of the bed and reached out, catching his waistband. She jerked him forward, and he let out a low growl as she dug both hands into his pockets, holding him there. “Maybe this is part of trying to heal. I want to just live for a while, you know? Do the things I’ve been missing.”
    “You mean you want to do me ,” he said warily. “But what am I supposed to do when my father chews me out for breaking your heart?”
    “Who says I won’t break your heart?” Mara asked.
    Scott just laughed at that. Not a good sign. Still, if he just gave her the best sex of her life and helped her with her stalker issue, he’d be giving her more than anyone else had. So why not?
    “I’m a big girl,” she said, tugging him closer. “I can take it.”
    His face was stern, but she could see his resolve wavering. Underneath that controlling asshole was a good man, and she could see him weighing whether this was actually good for both of them.
    But she didn’t care. She was tired of men running her life. She was ready to take charge. She slowly pulled down the zipper of his dress pants and took his cock in her mouth.
    Damn, the feel was velvety smooth, and he was huge. She licked and then released it and looked up to see him on the verge of losing it. Jaw tight, hands clenched into fists. Was he angry?
    Slowly, he pushed the pants down and backed her up onto the bed, making her very aware that she was still naked.
    “Tease,” he said, reaching into the drawer at the side of the bed for a condom. Apparently, the hotel stocked them in the suites.
    It was important to use protection. When two shifters did it without, it resulted in claiming.
    He opened it with his eyes locked on hers and then slid it over himself. “As good as your mouth feels, what I really want is to be inside you.”
    She nodded, arching luxuriously back on the bed. “That’s what I want, too.”
    Still, he didn’t immediately go for it. Instead, he ran his hands worshipfully down her body, caressing every curve, heating up her body and the room. He ran a small circle around her ankle and trailed back up to play between her thighs. He touched her soft stomach as if memorizing each curve and roll. He made her feel utterly beautiful, and he was totally silent.
    Then he leaned forward and kissed her, hard, his lips crashing against hers like waves on a beach. He settled into a rhythm, caressing again and again, and then he stroked deep with his tongue as his fingers dipped to test her entrance.
    Damn, she was wet and ready for him.
    “So hot,” he growled, readying himself at her entrance.
    She ached in anticipation, and when he didn’t immediately come inside her, she wrapped her legs around his waist and pulled him in with one hard thrust.
    She winced because he was so much larger than she was used to, but immediately, the
