body, bringing him closer and closer to climax.

“Claim me,” Russ breathed, nipping lightly at Liam’s lips, not enough to draw blood but sufficient to gain his attention. “Come for me. Fill me up.”

Russ growled and began moving in earnest, and Liam mirrored the pace with his hand, providing a slick channel for his lover’s cock. Russ’s green eyes were lust-blown, dilated so the black pupil had just a thin ring of green around it.

“Your eyes practically glow,” Russ murmured.

Liam moved slightly, baring his neck. “I want your mark.” One more stroke and Liam felt himself begin to tip over the edge. He tugged again at Russ’s hard dick and felt hot come spill over his fist.

Russ dropped his mouth to the base of Liam’s neck and bit down as his orgasm crashed through him, leaving a bite that would scar. Liam moaned at the bite and bucked his hips, wrapping one arm around Russ and drawing him close as he stroked his lover through the aftershocks.

“C’mon, Liam. Do it.” Russ canted his head to one side, exposing his neck, begging for Liam to mark him.

As Liam felt his orgasm build, he closed his mouth over the spot where Russ’s neck and shoulder met, and bit, breaking the skin and completing their bond.

Liam came harder than he could ever remember, and his vision nearly whited out for a moment. He licked over the teeth marks on Russ’s shoulder, deep enough to scar but not damaging. The tang of blood brought his fox to the fore in his mind.

Finally. Took long enough. With that, his fox gave an imperious swish of his tail and receded, giving them privacy once more.

“I love you,” Russ murmured. His arms bracketed Liam’s head. Liam slid the flat of his tongue over the bite once more, and lifted his face for a gentle kiss, knowing Russ could taste his own blood on Liam’s lips.

“Love you too,” Liam replied, just loud enough to carry the few inches between them. “So, I guess this mate thing is official now, huh?”

Russ nuzzled Liam’s ear, licking at the shell and gently sucking on the lobe, then kissing his way down to run his tongue over Liam’s matching bite. The touch made Liam shiver, deep inside, and sent a twitch through his cock, which was still buried deep inside his lover.

“How’s your back,” Russ asked, raising a hand to touch Liam’s cheek. Liam leaned into his palm, loving the feel of it against his skin.

“Better. All those good orgasm brain chemicals cancelled everything else,” Liam replied, feeling sated and suddenly sleepy. He reluctantly, carefully, pulled out, immediately missing the hot clench of Russ’s tight ass.

“Good,” Russ said and kissed the top of Liam’s head. “Let’s clean up and get some sleep. It’s been a long day.”

“I don’t have any clothes here,” Liam remembered.

“I think I’ve got some that will fit, at least enough to get you home in the morning.” Russ hesitated, and Liam felt a hint of worry through their bond. He dug around in his dresser, and came back with a pair of basketball shorts and a T-shirt. To Liam’s surprise, they fit well enough that he didn’t need to go back to his house in his fur to avoid scandalizing the neighbors.

When they had settled back into bed, Russ ran his fingers though Liam’s soft hair, and Liam traced the outline of the rapidly healing bite on Russ’s shoulder with his finger, still marveling at what had transpired between them.

“Hey, Liam,” Russ said quietly, as they lay face-to-face beneath the covers, hands lightly tracing each other’s bodies in a comfortable afterglow. “I know it’s probably too soon, but I’d like you to consider moving in with me. When you’re ready.”

Liam gave him a sleepy smile. He’d had that thought and argued himself out of bringing it up just yet. “With Drew here and maybe Noah too?” He could tell Russ’s little brother was crushing on the handsome lynx. From what Ty had mentioned to Russ at the hospital, Carlos the ocelot shifter planned to return to New York City.

Russ shrugged, never stopping the gentle roaming of his hands as if he were trying to memorize the contours of every inch of Liam’s form. “The cabin has already been expanded. There’s a good bit of elbow room, plus open land around us to run. The plot is big enough for a second cabin if it came to that.”

He cleared his throat. “I’m not trying to pressure you or impose on
