three is sex without protection," I finished, sliding his tie off to drop it on the floor.

"I think that's the red zone." He stepped closer, guiding me back until I met the wall. "And it's off the table until she's eighteen."

"What if I'm willing to risk it?" I asked.

"Mm..." He leaned in to kiss the side of my throat. "Not without a plan. We gotta make sure to take care of our little girl, right?"

Our. My heart stuttered and my eyes jumped to his when I realized what he was saying. Not mine. Not his packmate. This was Ian's subtle way of saying he was that invested. He wouldn't tell me he loved me again, not until I could say it back, but he was still making it very clear how he felt - and I liked it.

So I reached up for the button at his throat. "And if I wanted to move to level one?"

A growl sounded in the back of his throat and he leaned in. "I am in no position to stop you." He pressed his hips against my belly, making his interest very clear. "My first thought when I saw you pushing that stupid lawnmower was that I needed to put you in my mouth."

"Shh," I breathed, flicking my eyes upstairs. "Gabby's still awake."

A devious little smile touched his lips before he ground himself into me. "So I guess I shouldn't make you scream, huh?"

My hand dropped to his pants, sliding right down his length before grabbing him through his slacks. "Moaning's allowed, but there's no way I can keep my hands off you. I approve of the suit."

He caught the side of my face. "I'll tie you up if I have to." Then he leaned in, stealing a hard, fast kiss before whispering against my lips. "The touching is my job."

Damn, but that was sexy. The only problem was that he stepped back. Then his hand caught mine and he led me away from the wall, only to turn me so my back faced him. Just as his hands found the zipper down the back of my dress, his lips brushed my neck. Slowly, he kissed, freeing me from the dress with a patience that was driving me crazy.

"I want the taste of you on my tongue, the feel of your legs around my neck, and to hold you as you writhe." The zipper reached the bottom and he pushed one sleeve off my shoulder, guiding it down my arm. "And you can change your mind. You're allowed to be scared of what we are. You can take more time to think about it."

"I've thought," I promised as my dress slipped to the ground. I stepped out of my shoes, one by one, leaving them there with my dress, and moved toward the bed. "I haven't been able to stop thinking about that night, and once isn't enough."

I released my bra just as I reached the bed, but Ian was following. When I tossed the black lace toward the floor, he grabbed me by the waist and heaved, tossing me into the middle of the bed, only to follow on his knees. His mouth found my leg. His hand landed outside my knee, and he kissed his way higher, crawling across the mattress.

"So perfect," he breathed before grabbing a fistful of my panties, right in the front. Then he pulled, dragging them down my thighs and lower, until I was free. The next kiss was on my thigh. "You are mine, Elena, and I am not going to let you go."

In the dim light of my bedroom, his honeyed eyes almost glowed. There was something feral in them, and they were locked on me, even as he kissed a little higher. One arm slipped beneath my leg. The other hand splayed across my stomach, and then he bent.

The first thing I felt was heat as his tongue slid between my folds. My knees fell open, giving him access, and he pressed a little harder with the next pass. When he reached my clit, I murmured, trying to stay quiet, but he noticed. Then he sucked.

One of my hands grabbed the covers over my head. The other landed on the back of his neck, and I pressed into his mouth. Damn, he knew what he was doing. Every lap and suck drove me a little higher, and he devoured me like he was starving. Like he wanted to do this. It made me feel beautiful, sensual,
