CHAPTER 72 RYAN'S POV I never knew she felt this way . She didn't know that while I was at the board meeting trying to convince the board of directors and the human investors about my relationship with Anna , I was barely able to think straight . The only thing on my mind the entire time was her . Her face . Her voice . Her touch . I kept tapping my fingers under the table like a madman , wishing the goddamn meeting would end so I could be with her . I hadn't even expected it to take that long .

But everything had dragged , and the moment I got home with Dad , I didn't waste a second , I headed straight for her room . She wasn't there . The bed was cold . I panicked a bit , thinking maybe she was upset again , but something pulled me to check my old room . The second I stepped in and saw her sleeping there , curled up so peacefully with her hands tucked under my pillow , I swear something in my chest just ... melted . Fuck , she was beautiful . Her soft little breaths , the way her chest rose and fell , the scent of her filling the whole room .

I wanted to crawl in beside her and just hold her . I quietly went to take a shower , my muscles sore and heavy from the day , but it didn't matter . My wolf had already stirred the moment I saw her . He didn't care about exhaustion . He only cared about our mate , the one lying in that bed like she was made for us . When I came out , towel drying my hair , I climbed onto the bed gently , just wanting to hold her . But the second she felt me , she moved . Her hand slid into my shorts , and before I could even react , she touched me .

I froze for a moment and told her softly that we should sleep . That I was tired . And then I saw the way her face changed . Her body pulled back , her voice cracked . She started whispering shit about how I didn't want her anymore , about maybe I'd gotten it somewhere else , fuck , that broke me . I didn't let her say another word . I yanked her into my arms and kissed her , rough , hungry , desperate . " You think I'd fucking touch anyone else ? " I growled into her mouth , my lips crashing over hers like I wanted to consume her whole . " You're the only one for me , Anna . Always you .

" She whimpered , and that sound made my cock twitch painfully . Then she moaned again , and my hand moved without thinking, slipping into her panties , finding her clit, and rubbing it in slow tight circles that made her squirm . " Oh God , Ryan , " she moaned breathlessly , arching her back into me . I brought my finger to my lips , licked it , tasted her , Fuck , I growled . That scent . That taste . I tore off her thin nightgown in one motion , yanked it over her head and threw it somewhere behind me . My cock throbbed hard against my shorts .
