.Once they were out of sight, Colby s controlsnapped.Letting out a growling noise that he d neverimagined would come from his lips, he pinned Tobiasto the tree.Their lips were inches apart and though it wouldhave been so easy to start the kissing right away, Colbystill managed to hold back some.He didn t want tomaul Tobias, or scare him away.Then, Tobias s eyes grew dark with desire and he let59Stephani Hechtout a moan. Shit, just when I didn t think you couldget any hotter, you had to do that.Taking that as permission, Colby pressed their lipstogether.At first, he took it slow, going in for shortpecks.Soon, though, their combined needs grew andthey were slipping their tongues out to do a proper job.Then, just as suddenly, Colby broke the kiss.Tobiassent him a confused look that was so adorable thatColby couldn t help but chuckle. Sorry, while I lovekissing you more than anything, I also want to get toknow you, too.Tobias put his arms around Colby s neck. Okay,what do you want to ask? I promise that I ll fess uppretty much any of my secrets as long as you promiseto fuck me afterwardColby worked hard to think of a good question.Somehow the standard what s your favorite color, orwhat s your sign, didn t seem right.Finally, he asked, When you talk about runts, what exactly do youmean? Just like with full animal litters, sometimes thereare runts.Tobias began to toy with the back of Colby s hair.Itfelt so good that Colby had to struggle to keep on task. So, do they treat you bad because of it? It could be worse.Russell protects me and makessure that nobody gets out of line.Sometimes, I hearsome remarks about how I should be Omega instead ofRussell s Beta, but I try to ignore them.It could be a lotworse.A few decades ago, the pack would have killedme off at birth.Horrified, Colby gasped. No way.60Colby and the Little Wolf Yeah, and it wasn t just Wolves either.Felines andHawks did it, too.I think some Ravens still practice thattradition. So, you do you think I m a runt, too?Still playing with Colby s hair, Tobias tilted his headto the side in a slightly playful manner. Of course youare.No offense but you have to notice how you alwayshave to look up in order to make eye contact with theother members of you coalition.Didn t you everwonder why you were so much smaller than all theother Lions? I thought maybe they fed them all Wheaties, orsomething, Colby half teased. Don t feel too bad.Some runts are never able toshift.At least you already know you can do that. Yeah, and the last time I did it, I could switch backto my human form.Call me crazy, but I don t think it ssomething I want to do anytime soon.A cold feeling came over Colby as he rememberedhow terrifying it had been to be trapped and unable toturn back.There were times where he was sure he dlost his mind.Other moments, his mind had gone to aneven darker place and, if he could have, he would havekilled himself just to end it all.Tobias caressed Colby s cheek. That was onlybecause the Ravens poisoned you.Now that the felinedocs cured you, it won t happen again. How can you be so sure? Growing up, I saw a ton of shifters manage to goback and forth.Never before were any of them foreverstuck with four legs and fur. Can you shift?61Stephani HechtA blush came over Tobias s cheeks. I haven t yet,but I can feel my Wolf inside me.Russell says that s agood sign.Colby could really relate to that since he could feelhis Lion all the time.For several years, he d known thatthere was something different inside him and it wasmore than him being gay.It was as if, even when hewas lonely, he wasn t truly alone.If that made anysense.Now that he d been plunged into all things that wereshifter, he realized it had been the other part of him thatwas slowly awakening.Looking back, that metaphormade sense.The Lion started out really soft spoken andin the shadows, but as the years progressed Colby couldsense the presence growing stronger and scratching tocome out. I can t wait to see you as a Wolf, Colby replied ashe turned his face into the caress.Some part of him screamed for more contact.If hehadn t thought it would be in bad manners, he wouldhave already stripped them both, just so he could rubagainst every inch of Tobias s body. We don t hold a feline s scent, Tobias sadlyinformed him.Colby paused, embarrassment flooding him as herealized that he d actually been rubbing against theother man.At least he hadn t gone so far as to stripthem, but there was no denying that he was acting like akitty, purring against a clump of catnip. I don t follow, he admitted.Somehow, it wasn t so hard to say those words toTobias.The Wolf had a way of making Colby feel okay62Colby and the Little Wolfwith his ignorance.Instead of acting aggravated, orsurprised by his questions, Tobias never failed toanswer them in a gentle, caring tone. Felines coat their scent all over their partners.Oh.Colby now realized why Thomas was alwaysrubbing his cheeks over Chance s face.Before thatmoment, he d just always thought his brother had afetish or something else. Do they do it with all their partners, or just theirmates?Colby winced as he realized he d just spoken thatlast thought aloud.Nice! Way to play things cool.Nowonder so many of the coalition still thought he was offhis rocker and tumbling down the porch.Tobias smiled before he gave Colby s bottom lip agentle nip. Both, actually.Although once mated theyseem to become almost obsessed with it.Since that kind of let Colby off the hook for earlierslip up, he dared to ask another question,  Why can tWolves carry our smell?For some reason, the knowledge that Tobiaswouldn t be marked in such a manner felt like acrushing disappointment to Colby. Wolves have such a strong base scent that nothingcan cover it up, not even the funk the Ravens throwoff, Tobias explained.He then gave Colby a soft kiss. Have we talked enough, yet? Because if somebodyisn t getting fucked in the next couple of seconds, I mgoing to bust.Colby only had to gaze into Tobias s passion-infused eyes to have his answer.Desire pooled throughhis body, making him both hot and horny.Which, while63Stephani Hechthe was pretty certain that description probably was thetitle of a porn, or two, there was no other way to conveyhow he felt.His cock grew hard and ached so much thatthis time, he didn t even feel ashamed of the fact thathe d started to rub against Tobias again.Tobias let out a breathy laugh. I guess that means,yes.Colby gave a rumbling growl that he never thoughtwould come from him.All the while, he continued togrind against Tobias.This time, Colby didn t feel ashred of embarrassment either.All that he felt werewant, need, and bone-numbing desire. Do you want me to fuck you? Or would you rathertake me first? Tobias gasped, his fingers moving to diginto Colby s shoulders.Colby froze. You wouldn t mind if screwed you?Tobias gave him a sexy grin before turning aroundso he was now facing the tree. No, of course not.Justso long as you promise that it s my turn to top next.That sounded just fine with Colby and he couldn tnod his agreement fast enough.Tobias let out anotherchuckle a trait that Colby was quickly findingaddicting.Not only did it sound sexy as hell, but he hada feeling that Tobias didn t let his guard down like thatto too many others [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
