Espen’s lips tasted faintly of cinnamon. Heat coursed through Arvid’s body, and he wanted more. He’d never met a shifter like Espen. Every alpha he’d ever come across was domineering and grabby, but not Espen. He ground his cock against Espen’s hip, wanting to straddle him, but afraid he’d fall on his arm.
“Easy.” A large, strong hand cupped his ass, and Arvid moaned.
“I want…” He wanted Espen naked against him, wanted to feel his strength and his warmth.
“What do you want?”
“Touch me?”
Espen chuckled, guided him onto his back, and gently peeled off his shirt. His pulse thudded in his arm, but he did his best to ignore it. Callused fingers skidded over his torso and down to the wet pajama pants. Espen grunted. “Why didn’t you change pants?”
“You stormed off in a hissy fit.” The words were hardly out of his mouth before Espen kissed him—deep and consuming. Arvid moaned.
