Forever Is Not Enough [Council Enforcers 2] (Siren Publishing Classic)

bedroom and kicked the door closed behind him. He sat her on her feet at the end of the bed, and she gasped when she looked up into the amber eyes staring back at her. His wolf was close to the surface, and she had no clue what that meant for her, but Jacqueline wasn’t afraid. She knew he wouldn’t hurt her. Reaching up with trembling fingers, she ran them across his cheeks then up to his eyelids when he closed them. She slowly rubbed until Ben finally sighed and opened his eyes again. This time his brown eyes stared back at her.
    “You make me lose control, little mate. One touch and I go crazy.” Ben closed his eyes and swallowed. “I can smell your fear. Please don’t be scared.”
    Jacqueline realized her hand had slid into Ben’s hair, and she was petting him, but he didn’t seem to mind. In fact, he leaned into her touch. “It’s okay. I’m not scared of you. I know you won’t hurt me. I’m just a little nervous. I’m a virgin. I’ve never done any of this before. The kissing earlier, the touching at dinner, and now whatever this is… It’s all new to me. I just don’t want to mess it up.”
    Ben’s body seemed to relax at her statement as he pulled her into a hug. “You have nothing to worry about. We’ll go as slow as you need, and if you begin to feel overwhelmed, all you have to do is say stop, and I will.”
    The sincerity in his eyes told her more truth than anything. She knew if she asked him to walk out of the bedroom at that moment he would, and there would be no anger. Jacqueline nodded her consent, unable to say anything past the knot in her throat. She swallowed when Ben gripped the bottom of her T-shirt and lifted it over her head. She heard his hiss when her breasts were revealed. She had no bra on, and she didn’t know if it was the cold air or his stare that had her nipples pebbling.
    Jacqueline looked up just in time to see Ben’s eyes flash from brown to amber and back as he reached for her. It was her turn to gasp and hiss when his hot hands landed on her skin. Her knees buckled and she thought she was going to pass out from the sensations shooting through her body and ending between her thighs.

    Ben caught his little mate at the waist when her knees gave out and lifted her. He gently laid her back on the bed and stared down at her. Jacqi was beautiful, and it was taking all of his control to not rip her sweats off and plunge himself deep inside her. His rock-hard cock twitched at the thought and began to throb, but there was no way Ben would do it. His little mate had admitted that, not only was she a virgin, but that he was the only man to ever lay a hand on her. He had to admit it made him feel good to know he was the first and was definitely going to be the last.
    He looked down at her small breasts tipped with rosy pink nipples and groaned. When he had taken off her shirt, the last thing he expected was for her to be bare underneath. He nearly came in his jeans at what he saw. Reaching out, Ben trailed his finger down the silky skin of her neck and across her collarbone. He ignored her gasps and whimpers as he circled her breast, moving closer and closer to her hard nipple with each loop. He was mesmerized at the trail of goose bumps he left in his wake. Leaning down, Ben followed the same path with his mouth. He placed tiny, open-mouthed kisses and nipped at the cords of her neck when she lifted her head to give him better access. The scent of her arousal growing and Jacqi’s moans spurred him on as he slowly made his way to her breast.
    The feel of his little mate’s hands in his hair had Ben moaning as he continued his assault on her skin. When he got to her nipple, just begging for him to take it into his mouth, Ben resisted. Instead, he blew his hot breath on it and listened as his mate keened out loud and nearly shot off the bed. Ben chuckled and moved to the other side to repeat the same moves. By the time he reached her nipple on that side, Jacqi’s mutterings were incoherent, and she nearly ripped his hair out of his scalp. Deciding to put them both of them out of their misery and end their torture, Ben latched onto her nipple and sucked. He groaned and nearly came when her flavor exploded on his tongue. She tasted as sweet as she smelled, and he wanted to lick her from head to toe. Instead, Ben released her nipple with a slight pop and leaned over to take the other into his mouth.
    He trailed his hand down her stomach, stopping to
