“I’m glad you’re happy baby.” Wraith whispered softly against my ear right before he nipped it. “Now about those naked hugs we talked about earlier?”
“I thought you wanted me to get to know your crew?” I smiled at him mischievously.
“Crew,” his voice boomed across the yard, “say goodnight to Angel.” A chorus of “goodnights” blasted through the air, including those at our table who were giving us a knowing smile. “There all taken care of, now onto naked hugs.” Before I could protest Wraith lifted me over his shoulder and started for the door to the cheers of his crew, no our crew. Yeah, our crew, that sounded good, it sounded steady, and I felt solid in it already. How could something that happened so fast make me feel so safe and secure? Human me would have balked at this feeling or rightness, but my snow leopard purred with happiness. “I’m going to naked hug you so good you won’t be able to walk straight.” Wraith rumbled as he kissed my hip right before he plopped me down on the ground next to the truck, we drove in.
“I was going to take you back to my room here, but I don’t want any of those assholes hearing you. Your sounds of pleasure belong only to me, I’m greedy for that shit.” He pushed up against the passenger side door, I should feel trapped, but all I feel is turned on. “Fuck I sound like a pussy, but I don’t care right now. I want to bury myself inside you and get lost till morning. Wanna pound you so good you feel me for days.” He growled against my lips right before he kissed me till I was so dizzy all I could do was nod in agreement.
I practically purred with excitement the whole way to his place, I figured he lived at the clubhouse or out at the cabin we stayed in, but he had a house right outside of town. It was a cute little ranch style house, painted yellow with white shutters, and a porch with two white weathered looking rocking chairs. He was far enough outside of town where he owned a little bit of land, so his neighbors weren’t right on top of him. Honestly it reminded me of something a little old grandma might own, not some big bad biker snow leopard shifter who ran an MC. I looked over at him and quirked my eyebrow at him.
“I got it for a really good price, the little old lady who lived here went into an assisted living facility out in Center and her family wanted to sell it quickly for her.” He looked embarrassed and I was sure the guys gave him hell about how cutesy the place was, but I kind of loved it. “Keep meaning to repaint it, but that gal put a lot of love into keeping this place up when her husband passed that I kind of don’t want to mess it up.” Awe, my growly, strong, psycho kitty mate had a soft heart, and I fell even deeper for him.
“Well it’s definitely better than my little one bedroom apartment with the leaking faucet that smells like mildew.” The truth was I could see us growing old in this house, putting in a tire swing for our kids, if we had them, and sitting on the front porch watching them play. Tears misted my eyes picturing it all and Wraith looked bewildered.
“I’m trying to stay out of your head babe, but right now I really want to delve in there to find out what’s making you cry. Did I do something wrong?” I shook my head at him and wiped the tears from my cheeks.
“Just daydreaming silly kitty, stay out of my head.” No way was I telling him about my daydreaming, I’ve heard enough about men freaking out about settling down to know not to mention the “C” word to them until they are ready. Wraith was definitely not ready to talk about children. “Now about those naked hugs?”

Wraith
Oh, smart mate, trying to distract me with sex, but I heard everything loud and clear. I tried to stay out of her head, but she projected straight at me like she was a bulletin board. Most people I had to concentrate on because I kept blocks up, so I didn’t get overwhelmed. I couldn’t seem to do that with her, she was like a book that I couldn’t close. If she only knew how I’d already pictured her with her arms holding our little cub she would probably freak out. So, we would both keep our baby thoughts to ourselves until the time was right. I was totally going to put a cub in her when she went into heat the first time, I smirked to myself.
I watched her face as we made it up the two small stairs and into my house. The place wasn’t very big, but when it came up for sale a few months prior something about it screamed “buy me”. Now I wondered if maybe the universe hadn’t been trying to tell me something. The guys gave me shit about how “bad ass” it wasn’t, but I didn’t give a shit, it had character. That and it finally got me out of the clubhouse. The fact that she liked it made my cat sit up and practically prance around inside me.
“I’ll give you the grand tour after naked hugs.” She yelped as I picked her up and raced down the hallway towards the bedroom. Her laughter filled the walls, as I flopped her right down on the bed and started ripping off our
