STORY EXCERPT

Chris glanced at his watch when the outer door to the office opened, then the inside door opened and in walked someone from the sheriff’s office. He wasn’t sure who, so he didn’t want to offend the man by calling him deputy if he wasn’t. He lifted his eyes and got his first good look at the man. He was huge and absolutely the most heart-stoppingly gorgeous man Chris had ever seen. What a hunk, all big muscles and tanned. He sure wouldn’t mind some of that for a night or a decade.

“May I help you?” Chris asked politely as the man walked up to his counter.

“Yes, I have a couple of bills to pay. Seems I got elected to bring everyone’s bill from the office.” The big man smiled as he dug out the money and each bill, laying them on the counter.

Out of habit, Glenn sighed and took a deep breath, calming himself. When the scent from the young man in front of him was absorbed into his lungs, his mind and body seized up, his cock immediately went painfully stiff, and he lost the ability to speak. His wolf perked up, sniffed, and then whispered across his mind. “Mate!”

Glenn didn’t know what to do. He hadn’t really looked at the man before, but now he did, letting his gaze flow ever so slowly over the young man as he breathed deeply again. Oh my, this was his mate? The little man was gorgeous, beautiful with his pale-green eyes and his hair that was so black it looked blue when the lights hit it. Glenn couldn’t wait to see the rest of him. He thanked the gods and fate on the spot. Never had Glenn expected to have a mate this easy on the eyes.

The sheriff tried to get himself under control as Chris stamped the bills paid and counted out his change for each one. Glenn looked over at the nameplate on the counter. “Chris” was all that was on it. Good enough, he could ask his friend, Don, the manager of the business office what he needed to know.

Chris smiled at the sheriff as the large man picked up his paper and coins.

“Have a good day, sir,” he said, looking up into Glenn’s eyes. Wow, was the big man hot or what? Chris thought to himself.

Glenn wasn’t really able to speak at this point. He didn’t want to embarrass himself by having his voice crack like some teenage boy, so he just stayed quiet and smiled. He nodded at Chris and turned to leave.

Chris thought the sheriff looked just as good leaving as he did arriving. The man was so far out of Chris’s league they weren’t even in the same time zone. Better not to wish for things that could never be, as the officer was probably straight and most certainly could have anyone he wanted, so Chris would make himself try to forget it. At least he had some really good dream material now that would last for a long time.

Glenn slid into his sheriff’s car and grabbed his cell phone. He had to find out more about his mate, and he knew just the man to call.

“Don Jonas speaking,” the voice on the other end answered.

“Hey, Don, it’s Glenn, how are you, man?” Glenn asked.

“I’m fine. To what do I owe this honor, Sheriff? Have I done something wrong lately, perhaps jaywalked?”

“No, I’m calling about one of your employees. A young man named Chris something. Works out front as a cashier?”

“Did he jaywalk?”

“Funny. I noticed a book he was reading, one of those college books guaranteed to make your eyes glaze over. Does he go to school here somewhere, and if he does, what’s he majoring in? Seth has been flip-flopping on his major, and if he knew someone that was already in one of his fields, it might help him make up his mind,” Glenn said.

It wasn’t a lie as Seth was having a hard time deciding what he wanted to do in college. The little twerp was extremely smart and was a senior in high school even though he was only fifteen.

“Oh, you’re talking about Chris Lang, yes I believe he’s in veterinary school. You know the one. It’s supposedly the best in the country from what I hear, Mission University. He’s in his last year I think.

“Chris goes down to the little park there beside the office every day for lunch if you want to talk to him. He reads and gets some sun. I thought it was crazy at first, but it seems to be good for the kid. He has that bad leg you know, so walking around helps him or so he says,” Don stated as if thinking it over.

“A vet huh? Great, that’s one of Seth’s fields. Hey thanks for the info. How about we get together next week and go grab a bite at lunch?”

“Sounds good, you take care, and we’ll talk then. Say hi to all your deputies for me, especially Alice.” Don chuckled.

“Will do, catch you next week, buddy.” Glenn hung up, smiling. He knew Don was sweet on Alice. Maybe he’d make sure they ran into each other every so often, help things along a little.

Glenn drove home. As he walked into his apartment, he put his coat and hat away and took off his heavy belt. He walked over to his laptop and opened it, turning it on and sitting it down. He changed clothes and got comfortable then went back to his machine.

ADULT EXCERPT

“Are you trying to take advantage of me, sir?” Chris looked at his big man playfully.

“Only every chance I get,” Glenn said flatly.

“Oh, well in that case, carry on,” Chris said, openly laughing now.

Once they were both disrobed and in bed, Glenn rolled over on top of Chris making sure his full weight wasn’t on him. “I’d like you to do something for me tonight, to complete our mating,” Glenn said a little too seriously for Chris’s comfort.

“And what would that be, sir?”

“I want you to mate me,” Glenn said, looking away.

“Huh?”

“I’ve never been topped, Chris. I’ve always been a little too alpha for that, but I want you to, even if just once. It’s important to me. It’ll make me feel like I fully belong to you. You understand?” The huge man looked straight into his small mate’s beautiful eyes.

“I understand, but I’ve never topped, Glenn, what if I did something wrong,” Chris said, worrying that bottom lip again.

“Don’t worry, we’ll figure it out together, okay?”

“Okay, if that’s really what you want. You’ll have to tell me what to do. I’m used to just relaxing and feeling. It’s a lot easier than being responsible for someone else’s pleasure. But I’ll try for you.” Chris smiled at him and saw the relieved look on his mate’s face.

Glenn looked at his mate and flipped them over. He had thought about Chris being on his knees, so he decided to ride Chris instead.

“That won’t work for me. My arms aren’t long enough to reach you, so turn over. We can always go back when I get you ready.”

Glenn got Chris off him then turned over, laying his head on a pillow.

He handed Chris the bottle of lube and said, “Just get enough to put on your fingers, baby, and a little more for me.”

Chris squeezed the bottle, and it went everywhere. “Are you sure about this,” he said, looking at the mess.

Glenn laughed as he said, “Yeah, babe, just not quite so much lube, okay?”

“Now you tell me.” Chris slid his dry hand up Glenn’s back, relaxing the big man. He stroked his crease then slid his fingers down and tapped the pink star. Glenn shuddered then jumped in surprise. The little shudder told Chris what he needed to know. Glenn would like this.

Still with his hand on his mate, Chris ran it up his spine, then started kissing and sucking, raising little red marks all along the column in Glenn’s back. His other hand was busy sliding up and down the crease, up then down, each time going a little farther.

When he reached the puckered star, he pushed his finger in just to the first knuckle. Glenn jumped but didn’t complain, so Chris kept going. One knuckle became two then the entire finger working around, sliding in and out.

Chris added a finger, still working in and out, up and down, stretching his love. He began to search for the sweet spot, as he curved his fingers slightly and twirled them around.

“Oh shit, what was that? Tell me you’re going to do that again, baby, please,” Glenn begged.

Chris smiled then hit it again, causing his mate to jerk and pull away. Chris’s fingers were pulled out, and suddenly his mate turned and looked at him.

“You’re the one who pulled away, don’t look at me like that, big guy.” Chris smiled.

Chris figured he was ready, so he lined himself up and pushed into Glenn without even telling him.

“Oh gods, my ass is burning like hell. How do you take this? Oh I don’t know if I can do this.” Glenn sounded panicked.

“Calm down, just breathe through it, deep, slow breaths making yourself relax. I promise it will get better.”

“If you say so, oh shit that hurts.” Glenn panted then started breathing slow and deep. Chris could feel him begin to relax, so he pushed forward just a little more. He pulled out and added more lube, then started again.

Chris would never know how he found the patience to do it, but by the time he fully entered his mate, he was seriously having problems trying to keep from coming. Once fully seated, he stopped to let his mate get used to the fullness. When Glenn moved slightly, he knew his time had come.

Being much smaller than his mate, he began to thrust in and out slowly but solidly. After a few minutes he heard Glenn moan. That’s what he had been waiting for. Chris began pumping into his mate then pounding into his ass over and over again. Glenn was roaring in his passion, yelling at the top of his voice words of profanity Chris had never heard before. He felt his balls tighten up to his body and knew he wouldn’t last much longer.

Glenn felt like he was being torn in two, but at the same time the feeling was totally off-the-charts fantastic. So this was what it felt like.
