Brawn Read online

  She spread her legs, smiling at him. Brawn climbed onto the bed and a purr rumbled from his throat. Big hands caressed her skin as he lowered onto her body, placing light kisses on her belly, upper thighs and inching closer to her pussy.

  Becca closed her eyes. “God, that feels amazing.”

  He chuckled. “I love your taste and the sounds you make. I just love you, Becca.”

  Her head jerked up and she stared down at him, her heart racing for an entirely new reason. “You love me?”

  He kept eye contact with her as he traced her clit with his tongue. “Mmm. Yes, beautiful. I love everything about you.”

  She believed him. “I love you too.”

  He groaned, nearly attacked her with his hot mouth and mercilessly manipulated her pussy. His finger slid inside, found that spot that drove her wild and brought her to climax fast. She panted and opened her eyes as Brawn dragged her down the bed. Her thighs wrapped around his hips as he slowly stretched her vaginal walls as his thick cock filled her.

  “You’re my mate, Becca,” Brawn rasped roughly. “I’m yours. Say it, beautiful.”

  As she stared at the passion in those amazing catlike eyes, she felt true happiness for the first time in forever. “I’m your mate,” she confirmed. “You’re mine.”

  He leaned over her, hesitated with his lips less than an inch away from hers and softly growled. “I love you. Never doubt that. You’re everything to me. I want and need you.”

  He drove into her as his lips crushed down on her mouth, kissing her and using his tongue to mimic what his cock was doing. Sensations swamped Becca—wonderful, wild ecstasy. This was more than hot sex, her mate was making love to her and she was being claimed with each powerful thrust of his hips and sweep of his tongue. Her body tensed and she tore her mouth away from his to cry out his name as she came hard. Brawn followed her, roaring out her name. They held each other tightly, catching their breaths and Becca smiled.

  “I’m your mate.”

  “Yes,” he whispered, kissing her throat. “We belong to each other and will be happy.”

  Chapter Twenty

  Justice North, leader of the NSO, watched Tim Oberto from across his desk. Tim studied him too, a worried expression on his face. Justice felt dread at having to tell Tim the news, not certain how the man would react. Jessie, his mate, walked into the office. Justice frowned at her surprise arrival.

  Jessie stared at her mate, shrugged and winked. “He’s my old boss. I know him better and I think I should be the one to handle this.”

  Justice hesitated. Part of him was relieved but the other part worried the male would lose his temper. He noticed the determined look on his mate’s beautiful face though and nodded his consent. No way was he going to tell her no and have her accuse him of not trusting her. He did, with his very life.

  Jessie licked her lips and her gaze lowered to his mouth. She promised silently that she would show her appreciation of his trust later. Justice relaxed in his chair. His mate could handle the leader of the human task force and the tough situation. His mate was fierce.

  “Hi, Tim. How are you?” Jessie sat on the edge of the desk.

  “Jessie!” Tim grinned and his body relaxed. “What are you doing here? I mean, I know you are working for the NSO and dating Justice now but why are you at this meeting?”

  “I wanted to be here. Justice and I got married.”

  Tim gasped. His gaze darted between them but he finally smiled. “Well, I’ll be damned. Congratulations.”

  Jessie grinned. “Thanks.” She glanced at her mate. “I’ve never been happier.”

  Justice chuckled. “Me neither. Jessie completes my life. When I claimed her at the bar, it was forever, Tim. Marriage was bound to happen. I respect your human traditions.”

  “That’s great.” Tim nodded. “I’m happy for you both. Is this why you called a private meeting, Justice? You said it had something to do with a human and a New Species. Do you need help with more security? I’m sure when the press finds out there’s going to be a big hoopla about it and your gates are going to be flooded with reporters and protestors. We’ll handle it though.”

  “No. This isn’t about that. We’ve managed to keep a lid on that secret. This is actually about a personal matter involving you.”

  Tim frowned. “Me?”

  Justice nodded. Jessie suddenly stood and moved to the chair next to her old boss. Her gaze flicked to her husband before settling on Tim.

  “I need you to remain calm and professional. You need to hear me out before you hit the roof. Can you do that for me, Tim?”

  He looked confused. “Okay.”

  Jessie took a deep breath. “This relates to when Rebecca and Brawn were kidnapped and taken by Mercile Industries employees.”

  Rage instantly tensed his features. “Is there another threat to my girl?”

  “You need to remain calm, all right?” Jessie regarded him. “I need you in professional mode. Set your feelings aside for a few minutes until I’m done explaining. This involves Rebecca but she’s absolutely fine, happy and safe. Don’t think there’s some kind of threat against her. There isn’t. Can you just please remain calm and hear me out?”

  Tim didn’t look composed but nodded.

  “The situation was very stressful and Rebecca didn’t tell you everything that happened. She was afraid you’d go ballistic.”

  Tim suddenly gripped his chair. “Goddamn, Jessie. She was raped, wasn’t she? She lied to me and that’s why she took off to Europe. I knew it! I even think I know who did it. I saw he was scratched and had a bite mark on him. That bastard raped my baby, didn’t he?”

  “She wasn’t raped,” Jessie assured him. “Calm down and let me finish?”

  He gritted his teeth and jerked his head in a nod.

  “The doctor running the lab they were taken to was selling semen samples from Species men. You were banned from knowing the details because we were afraid you’d think the worst. They were selling the samples to some foreign person or company we’re still tracking. They had three canine Species males but they needed a feline and planned to try to kidnap a primate mix next. Their contact in Europe wanted to buy a set of the Species males. Primate, canine and feline. I guess there’s a black market over there and their wish list includes New Species babies. They are trying to figure out a way to open some kind of fucked-up breeding operation using Species’ sperm and human surrogate mothers to create a bunch of infants to sell.”

  “They put her in with those men, didn’t they?” Tim’s eyes filled with tears. “You just found out. Was it just the one or was it all of them?”

  Jessie shook her head. “I’m telling you this because it was a stressful situation and they wanted samples from Brawn that weren’t, um…” She glanced at her mate for help.

  “They hooked them to sex toys that made them come to get their samples.” Justice sighed. “They asked Becca to take the samples from Brawn directly because they believed she was his girlfriend, therefore turned him on without the use of drugs and she had to take samples by manipulating his dick.”

  “Son of a bitch!” Tim shot out of his chair. “I suspected she was the one who bit and scratched him. She wanted to talk to him, probably confront that bastard, but I made sure that didn’t happen. I kept them apart.”

  Jessie stood. “Sit down now.” She frowned. “How did you keep them apart? What are you talking about?”

  Tim sat but was pale and furious. “She wanted to talk to him and I was told he wanted to talk to her. I don’t care if he’s sorry or whatever the hell he wanted to say. He hurt my baby and I wasn’t going to allow him to do it again. I had the therapist we use say she was too traumatized.” He glared at Justice. “I knew you’d keep that son of a bitch from talking to my girl if the therapist suggested they not talk and I told my baby he wouldn’t talk to her. He’s not going near her. If he wants to apologize, too damn bad. She’s obviously upset and she fled to avoid the pain of the memories. I knew so
