POV: Maya

Maya woke to fire coursing through her veins.

Every inch of her skin felt hypersensitive, the sheets against her body were almost painful, the air moving across her skin like physical touch. And the need... god, the need was overwhelming.

She needed to be touched. Filled. Claimed.

Her wolf was screaming for sex, and Maya’s human consciousness was rapidly losing the ability to argue.

She stumbled out of bed, her legs shaking, and somehow made it down the hallway to Kai’s room. She didn’t remember deciding to go there...instinct just drove her forward until she was knocking on his door with trembling hands.

Kai opened it immediately, already shirtless like he’d been expecting her. His eyes went dark the moment he saw her, his nostrils flaring as he scented her heat.

"Maya." His voice was rough. Strained. "Your heat started."

"Need you," Maya gasped, pressing against him. His skin was warm and solid and just the contact made some of the desperate edge ease slightly. "Please, Kai, I need...."

"I know. I’ve got you." He pulled her inside and closed the door, locking it. "Come here."

He guided her to the bed and Maya went willingly, desperately. When he laid her down on the mattress she whimpered at the loss of contact.

"Shh," Kai soothed, already removing her sleep clothes with efficient movements. "I’m not going anywhere. Just getting you comfortable."

He stripped her completely, and Maya lay naked and trembling on his bed, watching him with unfocused eyes as he removed his own pants.

When he stood before her fully naked, Maya’s breath caught. He was beautiful, lean muscle and golden skin and a cock that was already hard and thick and exactly what she needed.

"Please," she begged. "Kai, please...."

"Let me take care of you properly first." He settled between her legs, his hands stroking her thighs. "You’re going to come on my tongue, then my fingers, then my cock. And we’re going to do that over and over until your heat breaks. Understand?"

Maya nodded frantically.

Kai lowered his mouth to her, and the first touch of his tongue against her clit made Maya’s back arch off the bed.

He worked her with devastating skill....licking and sucking and using his fingers in combination until Maya was writhing and gasping and completely lost to sensation.

"That’s it," Kai murmured against her. "Let go. Show me how beautiful you are when you come."

His tongue circled her clit while two fingers pumped inside her, curling to hit that perfect spot, and Maya shattered with a scream that probably woke half the estate.

The orgasm was intense but not nearly enough. The heat demanded more. Needed more.

"Kai," Maya sobbed. "Need you inside me. Please...."

"I know." He pulled back, his mouth glistening. "But we’re doing this right. Making sure you’re ready."

He added a third finger, stretching her, and Maya’s hips lifted to take them deeper. The fullness was good but still not enough.

"More," she demanded. "Kai, I need...."

"I know what you need." He withdrew his fingers and positioned himself at her entrance. "Look at me."

Maya’s eyes locked on his.

"This is going to be intense," Kai said, his voice steady despite the strain she could see in his expression. "Heat sex is different from regular sex. More primal. More desperate. If I do anything you don’t like, if anything hurts, you tell me immediately. Understand?"

"Yes. Now please, for the love of god, fuck me already...."

Kai pushed inside in one smooth thrust that filled her completely.

Maya’s scream was raw and desperate. He was thick and hard and so deep she could feel him everywhere. And when he started moving, the friction was exactly what her body had been screaming for.

"Yes," Maya gasped. "Yes, like that, don’t stop...."

Kai set a steady rhythm....deep, thorough strokes that hit every nerve ending. His hands gripped her hips, holding her in place while he claimed her with single-minded focus.

"You feel incredible," Kai groaned. "So tight. So perfect. Like you were made for me."

Maya couldn’t form words. Could only hold on as pleasure built impossibly fast. When the second orgasm hit, it was even more intense than the first....crashing through her in waves that made her whole body convulse.

Kai didn’t stop. Didn’t slow down. Just kept moving, kept building her toward another peak before she’d recovered from the last one.

"Again," he ordered. "Come again. I want to feel you fall apart around me."

His hand slid between them, finding her oversensitive clit, and three circles was all it took to push her over again.

Maya came with a broken sob, and this time Kai followed her with a groan that sounded like it had been torn from deep in his chest.

He collapsed beside her, both of them breathing hard, and for a moment Maya thought the desperate need might actually ease.

It didn’t.

Within minutes, the heat was building again. Her skin felt too hot. Her body was already craving more.

"Kai," she whimpered. "It’s not enough. I need...."

"I know." He pulled her against him. "Heat lasts about three days. This is just the beginning."

"Three days of this?" Maya felt tears prick her eyes. "I can’t...."

"You can. And I’m going to help you through every second of it." Kai’s hand stroked down her back soothingly. "Just trust me. Let me take care of you."

The hours blurred together.

Kai took her again. And again. Finding new positions, new angles, new ways to make her fall apart.

He had her ride him while he played with her breasts, his thumbs circling her nipples until they were hard and aching. When she came like that, it was with his name on her lips and her hands fisted in his hair.

He bent her over the edge of the bed and took her from behind, each thrust deep and brutal and absolutely perfect. When she came this time, she actually screamed loud enough that someone knocked on the door to make sure everything was okay.

"We’re fine!" Kai called out, never breaking rhythm. "She’s in Heat. Leave us alone."

Footsteps retreated hastily.

Kai’s pace increased, each thrust harder than the last. "You like that? Like everyone knowing what we’re doing? Knowing that I’m fucking you so thoroughly you can’t even think straight?"

"Yes," Maya gasped. "God, yes...."

"Good. Because I’m going to make sure everyone in this estate knows you’re mine now. That this pussy belongs to me."
