Page 2 of Valentine's Day Treasure

Crew Arcoal sat in the oversized reading chair set in the corner of the bedroom he shared with his mate, Dahlia, reading a paperback book.Dahlia snuggled next to him reading on an e-reader, her long brown hair tucked over one shoulder.They were covered with blankets and surrounded by pillows, with drinks, snacks, notebooks, and more books, all in easy reach. They’d been reading for hours and Crew wasn’t tired. He never felt tired while Dahlia was around.

CRACK.

Their electricity cut out, leaving the room dark, with the only light coming from the e-reader in Dahlia’s hand.

Crew dropped his book on the end table and stretched. Outside, the wind whistled and howled.

“There it goes,” Dahlia said.

They’d figured they would lose power at some point overnight, because it’d been stormy and snowing with high winds for hours. The bad thing was this cabin they lived in was newly-built and there was no generator installed yet, so their plan had been to go to the main house, which did have one, if they got too cold. Ella had prepared extra beds, bedrolls, and cots, just in case.

Crew put an arm around his mate. “Guess I’m going to bed, Doll.”

Dahlia waved her e-reader. “Not me.”

Crew gently grasped her wrist and turned the e-reader so he could a look at the time: 3:04 in the morning. He let go.

“Damn, I gotta get some sleep before work.”

He stood, kissed his mate on the top of her perfect head—she was already reading again—and made his way across the room to the bed, stripping off his clothing as he went. He flung himself onto the mattress and stretched out on his belly, finding lacy fabric under his pillow. He grabbed it, trying to figure out what it was, then he realized it was the lingerie he’d ripped off his female the night before. He pulled it to his face and scented deeply, growing quickly and fully erect.

Doll,he growled inruhi.

She didn’t answer.

Doll, I’ve got something for you over here,he said, palming his erection.

No response.

“Doll,” he growled out loud, getting up on one elbow.

She startled, looking up, then laughed. “You were calling me, weren’t you? I thought it was just another voice in my head. There’s a lot going on in there right now.”

“My voice is the sexy one you’re hearing.”

“The sexiest,” she said. She smiled at him, then made a note in a notebook next to her. Crew waited until she put her pen down, then he growled, long and low.

“What?” Dahlia teased. Before he could say anything, she jumped up and said, “You know I can’t resist it when you do that.”

She propped her e-reader in the chair so that it faced them, throwing a bit of light onto the bed, then approached him, taking off her shirt.

“Leave it on, Doll.”

“Nuh uh,” she said. “This is my favorite shirt. You’re not ripping it.”

He reached out and tugged on her panties.What about these?he growled inruhi.

She didn’t respond, only yanked the panties down and stepped out of them, then pounced on him. He laughed and wrestled her underneath him, pinning her arms above her head with one hand.

“Oh no,” she said in a high voice. “Whatever shall I do?”

He growled and bit at her nipples. She fought to get her hands free, making him hold her with two hands.

He growled long and low, talking to her inruhi. That’s right, Doll, see if you can break free. See what happens to bad girls when they act naughty.

She grinned and yanked her hands but couldn’t free them. He pinned her with his bodyweight, until she tired and relaxed into the bed, breathing heavily. He held her with only one hand then, using the other to explore her body. His cock was trapped between them, forgotten for now, because his mate was laid bare and he planned to feast. He moved off to the side, dipped his head, and captured a gorgeous rosy nipple, sucking and nibbling, while he plucked at the other nipple with his fingers. She moaned lightly and bucked her hips.

“Greedy girl,” Crew murmured into her skin, sneaking his way up her inner thighs with light touches, then he veered off and went around to her ass cheeks, grabbing and kneading them roughly, pressing his cock into her side. Then he went back for more light inner thigh touches, while he kissed and sucked on one nipple after the other. He ran his hand lightly up her thighs, skimming her softest parts, dipping one finger inside her for just one second, then he veered off and around to her ass cheeks again, then down her legs, down the backs of her thighs, touching every inch of her skin he could.
