Page 17 of Marked By His Alpha Dragon's Desire

I sensed my orgasm and his, and I chased it. I wrapped my hand around his cock, appreciative of the size of him. He was a handful. I stroked him in time with my thrusts, and within in a moment, our orgasms shook through us. His cock erupted, sending ropey white spurts of cum between us.

My thrusts faltered as my release pulsed out of me. I filled his hole with my cum. HIs body clenched around me, even as my knot expanded, locking us together, pressing against his inner walls.

His eyes widened and his eyes rolled back. “Oh fuck!”

We stayed like that for a long moment. Our hearts pounding in sync, our breath catching.

Eventually, my knot released enough that I was able to slip out of him. By then he was blinking slowly, his eyes unfocused.

“Luca, are you with me?” I asked.

“Hmm. I’m good.” He sighed and snuggled against me.

We were sticky. Slick and cum dripped down his legs and his cum cooled on my belly. A shower was in order, but it didn’t seem as if he would get up anytime soon.

No matter. I could take care of him.

I slipped from the bed, reluctantly. I grabbed a towel and cleaned myself off, then returned to the bed and did the same for him.

For half a second, I debated crawling into the bed with him. He hadn’t invited me to stay the night, but I’d rather have my scales plucked one by one before I’d leave my mate’s side. I decided it was better to have him kick me out rather than leave on my own.

Clearly I made the right choice as I climbed into the bed and Luca snuggled closer to me. “Wake me up for round two,” he whispered against my chest.

“You can count on it,” I said.

Chapter 10

Luca

Raphael and I needed to talk. Not in a bad way, but there were definitely things that were not adding up about him—his healing ability, his weird scales. The fact that his skin felt hotter than a furnace when he was buried deep in me last night.

Something wasn’t right, and I had a feeling it had something to do with how weird this town was. There was a connection, but I didn’t know what it was.

Raphael lay next to me, sleeping soundly. I leaned up on one elbow and gazed down at him. He didn’t even look like he had a building fall on him just a few days ago. He was perfectly normal. The laugh lines around his lips were smooth while he slept. The scruff on his face had grown overnight, making me wonder if he ever considered having a longer beard if he wasn’t a firefighter. Did he let it grow out when he was not on shift?

“Are you watching me sleep?” he asked. His eyes remained closed, and a small smile played at his lips.

“Yes,” I replied. My hand trailed up his naked chest. Even now he burned hotter than a regular person. If I didn’t know better, I’d think he had a fever.

“I have better things we could be doing.” His eyes opened, flashing with desire. He reached for me, but I stopped him.

“We’ll get to thatafterwe talk.”

He grimaced. “Right. Should we talk over coffee?”

“Am I going to need coffee for this conversation?”

He nodded. “If you’re going to ask about the things I think you’re going to ask about, coffee would be best.”

“All right,” I said. At least I wasn’t blindsiding him. Which meant he likely knew what I was going to ask about and he had an explanation. Was it superhuman strength? Was he secretly Superman?

The two of us got out of bed, taking turns using the restroom. He pulled on the jeans he wore the night before, and I tried desperately not to get distracted by his nakedness.

My clothes from the night before were in tatters on the floor. Good thing I hadn’t borrowed any from Theo.

Thankfully, I had a coffee pot that worked quickly, and within a few moments, the two of us had coffee in front of us.

“You are not human, are you?” I asked. Best just to rip this band-aid off quickly. I wanted answers.
