  A small gasp escaped her lips at the sudden movement and despite what self-control I thought I had I traced her lower lip with the tip of my tongue before I entered her heated mouth. I groaned at the taste of her sweet mouth as her tongue began to fight my own in a battle of dominance that I naturally one.

  

      She soon pulled away, gasping for breath with her eyes closed as she rested her forehead against my own. I took in the pink tinge of her cheeks and her flustered expression feeling a proud smile make its way onto my face knowing that I had taken her first kiss. I would be the only man to make her feel this way and I would be the only man she would ever know.

It had been a couple of days since I had accepted him and he had accepted me. Logan had been true to his word when he told me that he had taken a few days off from training to be the next Alpha to spend them with me.

The drive back to the pack house was silent as I spared Esme a glance out of the corner of my eye; she was staring out the window watching as we drove through our territory towards my house. I pulled up into the driveway and easily parked the car after Esme got out and waited for me by the front.

  

      I could feel the nerves rolling off of her in waves and I was curious as to what was going through her pretty little head. She easily slid her hand into mine as we walked through the front door that I always left open.
