Ric might not have been a wolf, but as far as Hayley was concerned, he was fucking like one right now, and she loved it. It was raw and visceral, and she wasn't blind to the intimacy of it, of what he was giving her.
No way she could give anything less, terrifying as that was. The cracks she'd revealed earlier had already started the little fissures in her devil-may-care facade. True, he'd gotten behind it before. Letting him be there when she turned, see her that physically vulnerable and then...not even human was terrifying every time. But she was here, with him, herself and letting herself be vulnerable in a different way, ceding all control. She was shuddering each time she met him, fingers scrabbling for purchase on the rock, grateful he was bracing her, or she'd have no anchor at all.
