I squeeze the bench until my knuckles burn.

Her eyes drop down to my naked torso and I see her breath catch. I must look huge after all of those bench presses I did. My muscles are pumped with blood and are as hard as they get.

“Did you lift all that weight?” she says with a look of shock on her face.

I glance at the long row of plates on the bar and chuckle. “I would have put on more, but I ran out of room on the bar.”

She mouths out a ‘wow.’

“I didn’t know shifters could be so strong,” she says as her eyes run up and down my arm. “I guess I have a lot to learn about them.”

She does. She doesn’t know how protective and possessive we can get either. Especially with our mates.

“Do you want to learn more?” I ask her.

Her eyes widen, her face stills, and she nods.

“Every shifter is blessed with one true mate. She’s made for him and he’s made for her. They’re like puzzle pieces. Sometimes the edges are jagged, sometimes they’re smooth, but they always fit together perfectly.”

The subtle scent of her arousal starts filling the air and my bear perks up, on full alert.

“Must be nice,” she says with her cheeks blushing. “To have a love like that.”

She will have a love like that. I already love her like that.

“Sometimes a shifter’s mate will come into their lives right away. Sometimes they have to wait a long time. But it’s always worth it. They’re always worth the wait.”

She swallows hard as our eyes are locked on one another.

“You’re my mate, Ellie,” I tell her as my heart thunders in my chest. “And you were definitely worth the wait.”

Her mouth opens, but no words come out. Deep down she already knew. She already felt the intense bond. It always makes itself known, even in humans.

“I’m… your… mate?” she asks in stunned whispers.

I stand up and her eyes widen.

“Yes,” I say in a firm, unwavering voice. “I’ll show you.”

My body burns as I go to her.

Chapter Five

Ellie

I can’t take my eyes off Austin’s body. He’s always been massive, but after a workout, his muscles are unreal. They look rock hard and my fingertips start tingling as I imagine dragging them along the smooth sharp curves. His hot skin is coated in a slick sheen of sweat and my mouth waters as I imagine what his skin tastes like right now.

His words come crashing through my body, devastating everything in their wake. “You’re my mate, Ellie. And you were definitely worth the wait.”

On an instinctual level, I knew, even if my brain refused to believe it. The pull I felt toward him was like nothing I ever experienced before. I didn’t even know that an attraction like that existed before I felt it with Austin.

And now that it’s all out in the open, it feels that much more intense. My body is craving him. I want to press my curves against his hard muscles. I want to feel his mouth on mine. I want to feel his hands sliding under my shirt, not stopping until his fingers are buried in me up to his knuckles.

He’s standing there, looking sexy as ever as he waits for an answer. My nipples are aching and my pussy is burning as I slide my eyes down his hard sweaty abs to the huge outline of his hard cock. It’s thick and long with a wet spot at the tip. I swallow, knowing that his pre-cum is oozing out so much that it’s soaked through his underwear and pants.

I’m making him hard like that. It’s me.

Maybe I really am his mate…

“I’m… your… mate?” I ask, finally starting to believe it.

He stands up and my eyes widen at his massive frame. His icy blue gaze is piercing and I feel him inside me, like he’s seeing into me. Like he’s seeing the true me like no one else has before this moment.

“Yes,” he says and my breath hitches. “I’ll show you.”

The burning heat blooms inside of me as he rushes forward and takes me in his arms.

I feel so small in his embrace with his massive arms pulling me against his naked chest. My pussy pulses and I’m already so close to cumming just from being in his proximity. It’s making me dizzy. He’s driving me insane with lust.

I want this man so badly, I can’t breathe.

“I’ve never been with another man,” I blurt out. The masculine smell of his body is making my brain malfunction. I can’t think properly. Words just keep spitting out beyond my control.

“I’m a virgin. I’ve never even kissed a boy before.”

My cheeks burn as I realize what I just said. I’ve just blurted out my most shameful secrets.

He smiles as embarrassment fills me. At first, I think he’s going to laugh, but he doesn’t. He seems pleased.
