Jasmin's POV
"Stay with me."
The words escaped his lips as he pressed his face against my neck, his breath scorching my skin like fire.
"What are you doing?" My voice cracked as I stumbled backward, his massive frame leaning into mine with desperate weight. His hands found my waist, gripping me like I was his lifeline. "Stop this right now, or I swear I'll make you regret it!" I snarled, feeling the cold stone wall trap me against his burning body.
"So warm," he whispered against my throat, his voice rough with need.
My pulse hammered violently. There it was again, that obsession with warmth. The perfume should have hidden my scent completely, yet he continued this behavior. Perhaps the human mind could be fooled, but the wolf within him recognized something deeper, something that left him confused and desperate.
"You're burning alive. Get away from me!" I snapped, shoving against his chest. "I'm not some personal heating pad you can grab onto during your heat!"
