He pulled his shirt off, revealing his sculpted chest and abs. The sight of his powerful body, marked with a few battle scars that only enhanced his Alpha appeal, made my mouth water.
“You’re fucking perfect,” I whispered, running my hands over the ridges of his abdomen.
The shrill sound of his phone ringing cut through our moment, but Draven paid it no attention.
He pulled me up into a sitting position and claimed my mouth again, allowing my hands to explore every inch of his exposed skin. I traced each defined muscle while we kissed, completely lost in him as the phone continued its persistent ringing somewhere in the room until it finally stopped.
Just as I was about to unbuckle his belt, eager to free him, the phone started ringing again. This time with the distinctive ringtone he used for Ryan.
“Fucking cockblocking bastard,” he growled against my lips. “I’m sorry, but I better answer this.”
He gave me one more bruising kiss before pulling away reluctantly, searching for his phone and answering it on speaker.
“This better be life or death, Ryan. What you just interrupted was about to be the highlight of my fucking year.”
“I know, when I tried to mind-link you and you blocked me, I knew you were up to no good.”
Ryan’s booming laugh filled the room, and I felt my cheeks flush with embarrassment.
“Damn, Draven! You two have been alone for hours and you still haven’t sealed the deal? Your wolf must be going insane!”
“Go fuck yourself, Ryan!”
“No thanks, but I’ll be quick so you can get back to ravishing Caroline,” Ryan teased, and I turned an even deeper shade of red.
“Then get to the point, because there’s a beautiful woman waiting for my cock,” Draven said bluntly, his eyes fixed on me with a naughty smile that made my core throb with renewed desire.
“Alright, alright. Draven, Arthur thinks they already know we suspect the scam. He said there are many important documents missing from what he’s seen.” Ryan’s voice turned serious, and I watched as Draven’s expression changed accordingly.
Draven moved away and sat down, so I slid off the desk, adjusted my dress, and began gathering the scattered papers from the floor. The passionate mood had dissipated, replaced by business concerns. While I collected the documents, Draven continued his conversation with Ryan on speakerphone.
“But how do they know? It’s impossible!” Draven’s voice carried the authority of an Alpha now, clearly irritated.
“I don’t know, but I told the hacker that Arthur hired to thoroughly check the office computers and phones. If they were used to leak the information, we’ll know who did it. He said it’ll be done by Monday.”
“Alright, Ryan. Any other problems?” Draven responded, sounding tired.
“No, man, not for now. But the team Arthur put together is top-notch. These guys are really good.”
“Great. That’s very good! Talk to you later then.”
“Later, Alpha. Get back to claiming your she-wolf,” Ryan said goodbye with a knowing laugh.
Draven ended the call and sighed deeply, his eyes finding me as I continued to pick up papers.
“I could help you collect these documents,” he said, his voice returning to its seductive tone, “but the view of your ass in the air is making my wolf howl.”
“What’s going to be wonderful is the work it’ll take to reorganize these documents,” I replied with my back to him, deliberately arching my back and pushing my butt out further, teasing him all over again. I was disappointed at the interruption but pleased to feel his hungry gaze still fixed on me.
Caroline’s POV
I sat beside Draven as we sorted through the piles of financial documents, enjoying being close to him. By early evening, we were nowhere near finished checking the company’s bank accounts, but Draven suggested we take a break and get something to eat. While he took a call from Ryan, I used the opportunity to call Eleanor and check on my son.
“Carrie, relax. Liam and I are fine. We’ll have dinner, watch cartoons, and go to bed. Do your work, but take a break and grab that sexy Alpha boss of yours, please,” Eleanor said, her laughter infectious through the phone.
“Elle, I’m serious, we have mountains of work to get through,” I replied, trying but failing to sound stern.
“A two-hour break is medically recommended, especially for people with sexual tension thick enough to cut with a knife,” my friend teased. “Don’t waste all my efforts. I went all out to help you seduce your Alpha boss. These clothes aren’t wearing themselves, you know. Seriously though, Liam and I are having a blast. You know I love taking care of my godson with all my heart.”
“Alright, Elle,” I sighed. “Thank you so much. Give my little one a kiss for me.”
I hung up and turned to find Draven watching me with those intense violet eyes.
Heat rushed to my cheeks as I realized he must have heard everything Eleanor and I discussed.
“Caroline,” he said, “I know Liam isn’t feeling well. If you need to go home, I understand. This is going to run through the night and into tomorrow. I can finish up.”
“We’ll finish faster if we do it together,” I said with a smile. “Besides, Liam has a godmother who absolutely cares about him and loves having him all to herself.”
“You and Eleanor are like sisters, aren’t you?” he remarked, moving closer.
“Just like you and Ryan, from what I can tell,” I responded, catching his unique scent of cedarwood and musk.
His lips curved into a smile that made my heart race as he pulled me toward the table. “Let’s eat, she-wolf. I need you well-fed,” he said playfully. “I can’t have you running out of energy for what I have planned later.”
We ate and chatted for a while, talking about pack dynamics, why I decided to study international trade, what Liam was like. I could sense his curiosity about Liam’s father lingering in the air between us, but he hadn’t asked about him yet.
“Carrie,” he said after a while, “can we take a little longer before getting back to work? My wolf is restless, and my mind needs a break.”
“Sure, we have all night!” I said and winked at him, going to sit on the office couch. My dress rode up slightly as I walked, and I felt his eyes tracking the movement of my hips.
“Come on, let’s stretch out on this couch. It looks amazing!”
“You’re what looks amazing,” he said, his eyes gleaming with intent as he stalked toward me after I sat down.
He leaned over me, nuzzling his nose against my ear. The heat of his body so close to mine made Rory whine with need inside me.
I felt his hot breath as he placed a kiss on my earlobe, resting his left knee on the couch and holding my neck with his right hand. His grip was possessive, dominant, pure Alpha.
He whispered in my ear: “I’ve spent all day trying to control my wolf’s urge to bend you over that desk and claim you. Just when I was finally managing, Ryan interrupted us again.”
Looking into my eyes, his violet eyes glowing with desire, he said, “You’re driving my wolf insane, Caroline. He wants to mark you, to make you smell like me.”
Before I could respond, he sealed my lips with a hot, wet kiss full of hunger. His tongue invaded my mouth, claiming every inch. It was enough to make me forget everything as I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer.
He leaned in until there was no space left between us, laying me down on the couch and pinning me beneath his weight. His hard chest pressed firmly against my breasts, stealing my breath, while the thick, aching bulge in his pants rolled against my heat with deliberate friction.
