Floating, supported by Kai, she reached down between them, grasping his length, working him till he filled her fist, hot and hard.

This wasn’t happeningbecauseof a haze of passion. Instead, this union was going to be in the full clarity of intentionality, eyes and hearts wide open.

Kai nuzzled Astred’s throat, lips and teeth trailing a blaze from the spot below her ear, igniting fires down at the apex of her thighs. His hands worked her muscles from her hips, up her back to her ribs, where his callused thumbs rotated over her peaked nipples.

Oh, but therewouldbe passion.

There never wasn’t, between Astred and Kai.

“I’ve missed you,” he whispered against the shell of her ear as his fingers sought her entrance, testing, massaging her nub.

Throat tight, she nodded, grasping his hair in her hands, pulling his mouth to hers, “And I, you.”

He drove her higher. She deepened her claim on his mouth until she could stand it no more and tore her lips from his with a gasp. “Now, Kai, now.”

Hands firm on her hips, he held her solid as he aligned his tip to her entrance and slid home, burying himself so deep he sent her over the edge with a cry.

She opened her eyes into his, heavy lidded, face taut with concentration and restraint. Her chest heaved, panting and breathless.

He was still rock solid, filling her, taking the shock waves of her fading orgasm.

Before she could sag against him, he gently withdrew as far as he could without leaving her completely. With slow deliberation, he filled her swollen channel, drawing a moan from her depths.

Again and again, rebuilding her shattered pieces, until she clutched him tight and fierce, ready to bite and scratch all over again.

Watching her, he listened to the melody of her gasps and cries, timing.

This time, as she climbed, he ascended a heartbeat behind.

“Astred,” he breathed her name, strained, urgent.

“Yes, Kai,” she gasped, closing her eyes as she searched for her magic, inviting her dragon to the surface in a glittering cloud that rose from her flesh, coating both of them.

A breath later, Kai’s rose, a swirl of white, grey and black mist.

His eyes flashed silver, then blue, and back as his incisors descended.

The sight ignited Astred’s instinct, rocketing at the erotic sight of his primal form meeting hers.

Eye to eye, she took control of the pace of their lovemaking, riding him hard and fast as a silver thread formed in the mist, looping around them in a magical spiral.

“I’m yours, Red.” His whisper filled her head with the tones of his soul.

“And I, yours, Kai,” she growled in return, her dragon joining in the consent.

Need and instinct took over as the magic thickened, heat blazed through Astred as her gaze landed on Kai’s thick, muscled throat. Her tongue slid along its column before she opened her mouth, allowing the predator to grasp him, deliberate and merciless.

He grunted, tensing against her an instant before he bit down on her shoulder, penetrating flesh and muscle down to the bone.

She rode against the pain, the magic a raging storm around them as they fought for mastery over each other and themselves, binding their souls together. Forever.

Kai’s deep, deep, dual toned growl, both dragon and tiger, reverberated through her. Astred’s dragon opened their heart, submitting, yet taking Kai’s with her as she spiraled inward.

Magic exploded in the peaceful gully.

Kai’s hands clutched Astred’s hips as he drove deep, striking her sweet spot.

In a flash, lightning struck, blinding Astred, her body rigid. She gripped Kai so tight within her, he had no choice but to release his restraint and give in to her.
