With hesitant steps and a kitchen knife in hand, Claire makes her way to the storeroom where the noise came from. The lights in the tiny room were off as usual yet the soft wind hitting her nose tells her that she had forgotten to shut the window. As she walks over to the window, the door shuts close behind her, making her yelp and turn around. She isn't alone. Before she could think of her next move, the brunette is pinned to the wall behind her by a firm grip on her neck.
She couldn't see the face of her attacker but his strong scent of rain mixed with the metallic smell of his blood hits her nostrils. Claire could tell the Rogue is smirking with his face so close to hers and as his grip tightens on her throat, her air supply gets cut short. Her lips quiver only to say one word, "..Mate..."
______________________________________________
Claire Skylar has already turned 27 but didn't find her mate. With her being too weak to protect herself or her family, her parents forced her to be in a live-in relationship with a pack warrior. Another rogue attack at her pack leads her with an unexpected encounter with her destined one, Alex Cooper, a rogue.

Protecting Rogue Mate

I await but no harsh remark leaves Alex's lips. The soft gaze he entertains me with soothes my soul. My feet slowly go back into his hold but when his hands lightly move, I realize how rude I'm being by giving him my feet back to massage. I don't want to seem like I'm asking him to treat me but also don't want to pull my feet away from him and embarrass him.


Stuck in a dilemma, I just keep watching him. Slowly his hands go back to my skin and start caressing it like before but even more gentle. Completely surprised, I just keep staring at him as he just looks at my toes while he rubs them. His touch grazes my skin, leaving me begging for more. I didn't want it to be like this but it's the mate bond. It makes you drool over your mate and crave them all the time.
