Nick entered the spice shop.

"Rosalee, I don't know what is happening." The grimm seemed very embarrassed. "I can't control my….." His hand motioned to his groin area. "It's like I need someone all of the time."

Adalind, who had been looking at the spices, couldn't stop the giggle that escaped, drawing Nick and Rosalee's attention.

"Adalind, what are you doing here?"

"I'm a hexenbiest, I often need things for my spells and potions." She rolled her eyes. "I can tell you exactly what's wrong with you, but you're not going to believe me."

"At this point I'm willing to listen to anybody."

"It's something that happens to powerful male wesen. I suppose that with you being a grimm, one of the most powerful beings in existence, that you would suffer from it too. My grandmother said some of the more predatory beings had times when they hadn't released enough energy in battle, and would therefore need to sate themselves with a mate."

"You're talking about the Alpha male power drive." Rosalee expressed with amazement.

"That is exactly what I'm talking about." Adalind looked at Nick. "You basically need to fuck someone's brains out until you've released all of you excess energy."

At Nick's skeptical look, Rosalee explained. "You're a grimm, Nick. Your body was designed for frequent physical activity, like hunting and fighting. When that energy has not been used up, it will demand to be released in another way."

"So you need to either go slaughter a bunch of wesen, or spend hours ravaging someone in the bedroom."

Nick sighed. Searching for bad wesen was not as physical as it used to be. Most of the time he was sitting at his desk looking over files. Sure he got into many fights, nearly on a weekly basis, but he was always left with plenty of energy. He supposed it was mostly due to not chopping off the heads of every bad wesen he encountered.

But what Adalind was suggesting was just as difficult. His ex had left him, stating they were just too incompatible. He was way too physically affectionate for her comfort.

So now he needed to find someone who was willing to be with him.

"Do you have any suggestions on who might be interested?" Nick asked.

Adalind thought it over for a moment. "I wouldn't mind a good roll. I think you and I could have a lot of fun together." She expected him to snear and turn her down. She was guessing that he hadn't actually expected her to answer him.

But it seemed that Nick had been very serious.

"Are you willing to help me tonight?"

Surprised he was taking her up on her offer, Adalind automatically replied "Yes."

Three hours later, Adalind was panting heavily as Nick thrust deeply inside her. Their bodies glistened with sweat.

She lost track of how many orgasms she had. She never knew it was possible to be so filled with pleasure.

For the first time in weeks, Nick was completely relaxed and able to fall into a deep sleep.

Due to her body being pleasured so thoroughly, Adalind's sleep was just as deep and restful.

Morning came. Nick woke feeling completely rested and in a very good mood; better than he had in a long time. That restless energy that had been plaguing him was gone.

He looked over at the beautiful woman laying beside him. Thanks to her, he felt at peace.

A warm wave of affection falling over him, Nick pressed his body to Adalind's, slid his arms around her, and pressed his lips to her bare shoulder.

A slow smile spread on her lips. Eyes still close, she pressed her backside against his hardening groin.

Lips brushing along her face, Nick slid his hand down her body and between her legs. He rubbed himself against her backside while he rubbed her clit, getting them both ready for a quick round before they would have to go to work.

He plunged himself inside her, keeping his fingers on her little bud. She moaned shrilly, her hand gripping tightly to his wrist as her body trembled with her pleasure. He buried his face into her neck when her walls tightened and fluttered around him, triggering his release. He held her tight, both gasping and panting as they recovered.

"I had no idea being with a grimm would be this good. Anytime you need to relieve some pent up energy, call me."

A week later, Adalind was in the spice shop again.

"I'm surprised you didn't offer to be with the Grimm. Nick is an incredibly good looking man." Adalind asked, genuinely curious why anyone would turn down the chance to be with Nick Burkhardt.

"I'm already dating his best friend, Monroe." Rosalee smiled, thinking of her boyfriend. "Nick is a great guy. I just had more chemistry with Monroe."

"Is Monroe human?"

"He's a blutbad. A wieder blutbad. He's helped Nick with a lot of his cases."

At that moment, Nick walked into the spice shop. He stopped abruptly, a large smile spreading on his face when he noticed Adalind.

"Nick! I was just telling Adalind about Monroe helping you with your cases."

Rosalee sensed a certain type of tension begin to crackle in the air. And thought it best to focus his attention on the reason for his visit.

"You've been helping me with a lot of my cases, too." Nick tore his eyes from Adalind and smiled warmly at the shop owner.

"You're certainly proving to be a unique grimm. You seem to have wesen helping you with all sorts of problems."

A tone in Adalind's voice hinted at what she had been helping Nick with.

"I've found that wesen are the best to go to for certain tasks." Nick flirted back.

Giving Adalind a good look over her form, he then took a deep breath and turned to Rosalee.

Placing several empty bottles on the counter, he asked. "Do you know what these are? And can you refill them?"

Rosalee smiled and nodded. Picking up the bottles, she said, "I'll go in the back and refill them from the main supply, since you need large quantities.

The moment Rosalee had left the room, Nick and Adalind were on each other.

"It's been too long since I had you." Nick groaned, grazing his lips along her face.

His hands were on her backside, pressing her firmly to him.

"You're the one who left this morning without kissing me." Adalind reminded him, one hand running through his hair and the other stroking her fingertips along his jaw."

"I was called in. You look like an angel when you're asleep. I didn't want to wake you."

It had nearly killed Nick to have to leave for a crime scene, while Adalind was naked in bed.

He had been demanding with her the night before, and was certain he had exhausted her.

"I wouldn't have minded." She brushed her lips on his ear. "I love having you inside me."

Nick held her tighter. "I need you."

"Name the place."

Their homes were on the other side of the city. That meant dealing with traffic. Hindering them from being together.

Plus Nick needed to get the items he was purchasing from Rosalee back to the trailer.

Remembering the trailer, Nick remembered that there was a bed.

"My trailer. It's a place where I keep all of my grimm related stuff. It's at a storage lot right now. So it's closer than our apartments."

Adalind was hesitant. "I don't know if I'll be able to relax in a place with a lot of grimm weapons."

"I'll go down on you." Nick promised. "I'll make you come twice. I'll make sure you're able to relax and only able to think about what I'm doing to you."

Adalind knew Nick always kept his word. She trusted him. He always made sure to send her to ecstasy. So she happily agreed to be with him in his grimm trailer.

Rosalee soon came back out and the couple quickly paid for their items and left, eager to be together.

Adalind was amazed that Nick was so willing to show her the place where his entire family legacy was kept. She instinctively knew it was an honor few had the privilege of witnessing.

Helping him set his stuff where it was supposed to go, she looked around at all of the valuable items and suggested, "You might want to consider moving this place to a more secure location."

His arms wrapped tightly around her and he buried his head in her neck.

"I'll think about finding a more secure place later. Maybe someplace remote and quiet. Far away from nosey neighbors. Right now, all I can think about is you, naked, and screaming my name."

Nick was already thinking that trailer trysts could be a regular thing for them. Moving the trailer to a place where there won't be a chance of people hearing he and Adalind have each other would be the wise thing to do.

It may have only been a week of having her, but Nick already knew Adalind had become his addiction.

Adalind was the perfect stress reliever, and Nick vowed he would never give her up.
