Chapter 243 Carter 56 Briar tossed her clutch and the shoes into a chair. She had taken them off the moment we exited the elevator. I tossed my jacket and tie and was unfastening my cufflinks as I watched, the glittering fabric of Briar's dress moved with her sleek figure. The light of the city as it filtered into the great area of the penthouse silhouetting her. The way that the fabric hugged the curve of her ass made my dick come to life. It didn't really matter what she wore, there was always a reason to want her in every way.

She is truly the only thing in this world that has made me whole, that gives my existence meaning. She pulled pins out of her hair as she walked and I watched her, transfixed as each curled strand unraveled and fell down her back and over her shoulders. As she took the last one out I was siddling up behind her, my hands gripped the swells of her hips and yanked her back against my front. I ran my nose from her collarbone up to her ear. Goosebumps rose across her flesh as she sagged into me. I suckled on her pulse, a soft sound of contentment escaping her as my hands began to wander.

"Do you think it went well?" she asked. "You were brilliant, my mate. Anyone who doesn't appreciate what you are doing; cleaning up Creedon's mess, is stupid," I tried to ease her fears. She stood her ground tonight. Laid out a future any real wolf would be proud of. I knew she was well aware of the stigmatism of females amongst wolves by now. Being a strong female would in fact cause her a lot of problems in the future. Me taking on Clyde had been as much for my revenge as her need to place me at equal standing with her.

Anybody who needed to know would know that now I was rightfully an alpha. 1/3 18:35 Tue, Oct 6 Chapter 243 My mate's ability to bolster my dominance now would make any challenge futile, not to mention that both of our packs had two alphas. They would have to take us both on to lay claim to anything and that would deter most from ever trying. She turned in my arms and looked up at me. "We can do this? Right?" she begged for reassurance. I tilted her chin up meeting those pretty aquamarine eyes, somehow the silver of her dress made them even more mesmerising.

This was my moment, I took her hand and kissed her knuckles, to distract her from my other digging into my pant pocket. I held her hand as I dropped to my knee holding the unopened box out to her. "I never got to ask you properly. Briar Adeilaide Anderson, will you do me the greatest honor of being not just my mate but also my wife?" I asked. Her jaw dropped as recognition hit home, she stared at me before her eyes blinked and a few tears fell. "Yes," she said breathily. "You haven't even seen the ring." I complained.
