Page 28 of Urn My Love

“Tell me what you need to recover from regenerating. I imagine it takes a lot of energy, and you’ve done it multiple times.” Jazriel placed soft kisses along my jaw.

Make love to me, I thought, but didn’t say it out loud. “My belly is full. Now I just need to rest.”

“Tell me the truth.” Jazriel’s mouth moved to my neck, sucking and licking.

My laugh was breathy, and my pulse jumped. “With food and sleep, my magic will replenish itself.”

Was it possible there were faster ways to recharge? According to Ryls, yes. But I wasn’t about to ask for that.

He trailed kisses along my collarbone, moving down. His mouth stopped just above the swell of my breast.

As though it had a mind of its own, my back arched, trying to encourage him to move just a little more.

“The truth, Iolani.” His voice lost its characteristic playfulness, becoming commanding. “Tell me what you need from me.”

His warm breath blowing across my skin made it hard to think about anything other than having him fill the ache between my thighs. “Jazriel, I… want you.”

He rumbled with satisfaction. “If we do this, it is likely my beast will claim you.” His hand moved to my throat, angling my face toward him. “I’m not going to be able to stop him because I want the same thing. Are you sure you want me as your mate?”

“Yes. Yes, I’m sure.” Wrapping my legs around his waist, I pulled his hips against mine. “Please, Jazriel. Mark me, mate me, claim me.”

He needed no further encouragement, and his mouth devoured mine. Supporting himself on his elbows, he slipped his right hand under my hips, holding me tight against the searing heat of his erection.

“Jazriel!” Wet heat rushed between my legs and my belly grew heavy with need.

His lips moved to my breast, sucking the hardened nipple into his mouth. Rolling his hips, he used the hand on my butt to slide my aching slit against him.

That wild thing in me began to pace, demanding release. Sinking my fingers into his shoulder-length dark hair, I pulled his mouth from my breast and back to my mouth. The thread binding us together seemed to glow in my mind, and the drive to be claimed by my mate added fuel to the wildfire burning through my chest.

My slick arousal coated him as he continued to stroke against my entrance. As my need grew, it quickly turned painful.

“Flame,” Jazriel hissed my name through clenched teeth. “Your first time should be special, tender. But I’m not going to be able to keep my beast at bay. I swear I’ll make it up to you for the rest of our lives.”

“If you don’t shut up and fill me, I’m going to experience my third death today by burning alive,” I snarled.

One second, I was looking into Jazriel’s glowing blue eyes, and the next, I was on my hands and knees looking down at the blanket.

“Oh!” I breathed, shocked at the dizzying speed with which he’d shifted our positions.

“OOH!” I screamed as his length entered me in one hard thrust.

He tore through the thin barrier and buried himself deep. My fingers curled in the blanket and I tried to squirm away from the searing pain, but his fingers dug into my hips, holding me against him.

“I’m sorry, beautiful. I’m so sorry.” Jazriel leaned over me, murmuring apologies and brushing kisses across my shoulders. “Be still, my love. Give your body a chance to adjust.”

I whimpered, torn between the desperate need still curled tight in my belly and the sharp pain shooting from where he was buried inside me. His right hand slid over my hip and down my belly, stopping when his fingers found where our bodies were joined.

When he found my clit, my muscles trembled, and I gasped. He said nothing as his fingers worked magic on my body. I could do nothing but moan as the pain receded and the feral need began to grow.

I rocked back against him, encouraging him I was ready for more. Jazriel’s hands moved back to my hips, and he pulled himself out inch by inch. I didn’t even have time to miss the fullness before he buried himself inside me again. My eyes crossed at the pleasure-laced pain that rippled through me.

Jazriel’s control must have completely snapped, because I could do nothing but try to remember to breathe as he thrust into me. My knees were lifted from the blanket as he angled my hips to thrust deeper into my tight heat.

Stars sparkled in my vision, and I felt dizzy as my body rushed toward a terrifying release. Jazriel must have sensed how close I was because his rhythm increased until our skin was soaked with sweat.

I lifted my eyes, trying to focus on anything to keep me grounded. What I spotted was August leaning against a tree at the edge of the woods. His eyes glowed as our gazes locked, but his face remained impassive. He looked completely unconcerned that he’d been caught watching.

What worried me was how my body reacted. My lust reached a boiling point, and with my eyes still focused on August, I climaxed, screaming until my voice was hoarse. Wave after wave of erotic bliss slammed into me, stealing my breath and causing my muscles to tighten around Jazriel’s erection. It was more than he could take and he roared my name, his body jerking as my walls continued to milk him.
