Bitten by the Alpha Wolf
“Must be frightening out here sometimes.”
    “Not usually,” Carolina said. She led Kyla to a study filled with books and knick-knacks. "Have a seat. Make yourself comfortable."
    "Thank you."
    But when Carolina left the room, Kyla didn’t sit down. Instead she browsed around the study. Pictures of family were all around, and everyone looked just alike. Kyla could tell in one picture that it was a young Landon with his father after a fishing trip. The young boy smiled from ear to ear while standing next to his father, showing off his catch of the day.
    She heard people coming, some whispering, and then the door to the study opened. There he was, gorgeous as usual. Kyla’s heart stopped in her chest, then started thumping again at triple speed. This man definitely had an effect on her.
    "I hope that you don't mind,” she said, speaking quickly in her nervousness. “When I hadn’t heard from you, I thought to come and check on you."
    Landon didn’t speak a word. The intensity in his eyes said everything. He came to her, taking her in his arms, and kissed her passionately. His touch ignited a heat within that Kyla never knew existed.
    When they came up for air, Kyla felt light-headed. "So I guess that you aren't mad that I came out here?"
    "No. Not at all. As a matter of fact, I was just talking to Carolina about how you and I hadn’t seen each other in weeks. I got so busy with work, and with some…issues with the neighbors, that I didn’t want to bring you into my troubles. Then I wanted to surprise you, but I know how important your work is to you, and I didn’t know how you’d react to a surprise."
    "And what advice did Carolina give you?"
    As Landon spoke, Kyla noticed an amulet hanging around his neck. She only noticed because Carolina had been wearing the same intricate trinket.
    A sheepish smile came across his face. "She said that I should go for what I want."
    His hands settled on her waist, and his lips pressed softly against her neck. "I don't know why I want you so much. Is it too much too soon?" he whispered.
    "No, it's not." Kyla was breathless.
    He stepped back and tugged on her hand. "Come with me."
    They walked through the house and out a set of double French doors. The wraparound porch overlooked the grassy area of the back yard where they had been for their first date.
    Fireflies, stars, and moonlight were the only illumination, and there was a peace and stillness in the air. Her hand in his, they strolled along the banks of the river.
    "Kyla, I know that I may have come across as a bit erratic to you. I have to admit that there’s a lot going on with my family right now. It’s the kind of thing that I didn’t want to talk about with you if nothing was going to happen between us."
    "And what do you think now, Landon? Is there something happening between us?"
    Turning to her, he kissed her lips, and his hands gently massaged her shoulders.
    "I would like there to be,” he said. Then he leaned forward to continue the kiss.
    Kyla felt his kiss from her lips to the center of her being, as the two of them sank to the ground, locked in each other's arms. His mouth was delicious, like apples and sweet bourbon, and his hard body against hers was just what she needed to feel. Landon's hands explored her, loving her ample curves. Her legs parted for him, wanting to invite him in, but in her heart, Kyla knew that they needed time to cultivate what was growing between them. Instead of rushing, she settled for lying against him in the mist of the night, wrapped in the arms of a man who was full of passion.
    But Landon peeled off his shirt, revealing his rippling biceps and broad shoulders. Between his kisses and his touch, Kyla couldn’t hold back. She wanted him as much as he wanted her.
    Never too rough, Landon undressed Kyla, peeling off her clothing as if he were unwrapping a gift. He was the perfect lover. Touching her in all of the right places, and some places that she had not known would fill
