He snapped his head down at me. Golden brown fur had sprouted around the sides of his face, and his teeth enlarged, taking up most of his face.
Under all the hair and the scary face, his dark eyes instantly softened when he saw me staring at him. I concentrated on those dark pools because the rest of his face I hardly recognized. That’s when I knew my big teddy bear was inside the big grizzly. “Hi, Teddy.” I wiggled my fingers in a wave, and his heavy breathing immediately stopped. I fiddled with my fingers and tried to keep eye contact, but the stare–those deep onyx eyes stared straight through me. “Can we let Bones go? I just found out you are my mate.” I gave him a shy smile, and he picked me up and brought me to his chest. “Oomph!”
His nose went straight into my neck, and his body vibrated as he held me against him. The door slammed open and shut, and Bear immediately held me closer. He stomped the door, opening it and letting out a roar that resembled the animal he was named after. I pinned my head against his chest, my hand covering my other ear, and waited for whatever animal issue he had to release.
He slammed the door shut, locking the handle as well as using the other locks he equipped the cabin with. Turning on his heel, he huffed and puffed like a petulant child and went straight to the bedroom.
Oh shit, what happens now?
Is he gonna bite me?
Is he gonna claim me?
My pussy fluttered, just like it did on spaghetti night.
Bear continued stomping into the bedroom. He slammed the door shut, going from window to window in the room. These windows boasted beautiful views, but he went to each one, pulled down blackout shades, and then pulled the curtains, leaving the room in nothing but darkness. He held me close to his torso and grabbed blankets upon blankets, then finally fell on his side in the middle of the bed.
He curled around me, pulling the covers over us, his nose pinned to the top of my head. I let him do what he wanted as I didn’t feel threatened or that I was in any danger. I don’t think Delilah, Hawke, or Bones would have left me. Or at least, I hope they wouldn’t have.
Bear had control over his grizzly with me, right?
“Bear?” I whispered into the darkness.
It was so dark I couldn’t see with my hand in front of my face. It was exactly like we were in a cave.
Of course, it would be a cave. Bears liked caves. They liked the dark, like they were hibernating. This was his den where he felt safe.
The grizzly grumbled back at me, his arms scooping me closer to his body. His body radiated more heat than Bear’s. He was burning up, and I didn’t hate it. I was anemic, that much I knew. I was anemic before I was starving, and the heat was quite welcomed by me.
“Not Bear?” I tried to look up, to face the half grizzly human, but I was held so tightly it was hard to move.
He grunted, sighed again, and let a whoosh of heated air over my hair.
I bit my nail, trying to figure out how to talk to this thing. It was sort of funny. I was the one that couldn’t talk, and now, here was the grizzly that wouldn’t talk.
“Teddy? You’re my Teddy bear, right?”
He didn’t huff back; instead, his heart slowed, and the excitement of having others in his home was wearing off. I rubbed his chest, letting my fingers go through the thick fur. It was soft, not coarse like I thought it would be. There were patches not full, like Teddy was still recovering. Bear said his grizzly had been gone a long while, and maybe this was why.
“You are getting better, aren’t you, Teddy? Are you growing this nice thick fur for me?”
Teddy half grunted, half whined, and his body had gone less tense. I felt his face come close to mine, and his rough tongue licked my cheek.
My nipples grew hard, which surprised me. It was just a lick, but it didn’t stop there. He continued licking my cheek. Tasting the different areas of my skin near my face. He even nibbled on my ear, his teeth grazing on my earlobe.
I let out a moan, my hands reaching for Teddy’s chest and grabbing hunks of his fur. The purring grew louder, and he went lower and down my neck. His claws had shortened and grazed my skin just at the waistband of my pants.
Teddy’s sniffing came louder and more frequently. His purring turned more into grunting and whining. He was frantic, searching. His licking stopped until he sniffed between my covered breasts, then lower and lower still until he reached between my legs.
Yikes, he was smelling me. There.
He could smell me, my—
He took a deep breath, his nose pushing in deeper between my clothed thighs. He rubbed his nose, a deep vibration tickling my clit.
I let out a whimper, my legs trying to clamp shut, but he pushed them further away so he could get whatever smell he could.
“Honey,” a deep, gravelly voice said. He didn’t sound like Bear at all.
