Page 16 of Lured By the Siren

Soaking in the feel of his solid mass, I look at him with want in my eyes, hoping he understands that I feel the same need he does. Kai’s nostrils flare, and then he groans just before his mouth crashes into mine.

His hands explore down my body and grip my ass, easily lifting me off the ground. I wrap my legs around his waist, grinding into him. A desperate want consumes me, and I need more. More friction. More skin. More him.

“Kai, I want to see you. All of you. Take this off.” I say, tugging at his salt-stained shirt.

He lowers me down on a nearby boulder, stepping away from me, and peels his shirt off so painfully slow, tossing it to the ground. One step at a time, he makes his way towards me, a wild look in his eyes.

I need to see all of him on display before me.

I suddenly notice the bruises peppering his skin and remind myself that I need to be gentle, but before I can tell him to be mindful, he drops to his knees in front of me and possessively pulls my hips to the edge of the rock ledge he set me on.

Spreading my knees apart, he looks up at me, and there is a passionate intensity in that look as he begins kissing up mycalves to my knee and nipping at my inner thigh. I shiver at the pulsing ache that's building, and a moan of pure ecstasy escapes as he finally takes my center with his soft lips. Gripping his luscious curls, I arch into his mouth, leaning into the feel of his tongue sinking deeper, playing inside of me.

Pleasure courses through me in waves. Kai is like a man possessed, starved and feasting on his first meal after weeks at sea. He claims every inch of me with his mouth, flicking in and out, grazing me with his teeth.

Then, just as I start to feel my walls tighten, he deftly slips two fingers inside. I am soaked with need, and I can feel myself climbing higher and higher. My legs quiver with the rising intensity as a constellation of stars dots behind my eyes. I’m teetering over the edge that Kai has so expertly coaxed me to, until a cataclysmic surge of pleasure erupts through my body, leaving me breathless and reeling.

I scream out as I come crashing over the edge, and Kai continues to stroke inside me languidly, savoring every last ounce of my pleasure.

Leaning back, I gasp for air, stars winking in and out of my vision, my entire body tingling as I come back to reality.

This man is a god, and I don't think I'll ever be satisfied with anyone else ever again.

Kai glances up from between my thighs, looking every bit like the statued heroes they sing songs about. He starts to kiss his way up my body, taking care to brush his lips over my hips, up my stomach, and finally reaches my aching breasts. He pulls down my top and lowers his mouth over my taut nipples, sucking each one, biting them lightly.

I arch into his affections, grinding my hips and grabbing his hands to guide them further down. He plants feather-light kisses along my collarbone and up my jaw to my ear and whispers.

“Such a good girl,” his breath tickles my neck, showing a side of him I didn’t know was lurking under his gentlemanly demeanor.

Even though we have just met, I can’t help but feel this profound familiarity with him. I have never been one for public displays, especially not in the way Kai just did, but with him, I not only wanted it, I needed it. And I’m loving every moment of his praises.

“More. I need more of you.” I beg impatiently, tugging at his trousers and reaching deep inside to sweep my hand along his considerable length, feeling it pulse under my grip.

Kai gently removes my hand. “Eve, I want nothing more than to drive you wild with pleasure and sink deep into your perfect warmth right here on this beach, but we can’t. We barely know one another, and I want to learn more about you before you scream my name out while riding my cock,” he smirks, and then his lips turn into a frown as a crease forms between his brows. “And I need to see if my brother Dru might be here.”

“I understand,” I sigh, even if my heart aches slightly at the rejection.

Kai pushes off the rock and grabs me around the waist, easily pulling me from it and setting me on the ground. I feel, for the first time in forever, that I could truly find happiness with this man, but a thousand wayward thoughts begin to flash in my mind.

If he finds his brother here, will he want to find a way to leave this island, only to die trying? If they can’t find a way to leave, what kind of future would we have? Would he begin to resent this place like I’ve begun to? Or worse, resent me for dragging him to shore and saving him instead of letting the sea decide his fate?

I look up at him with heavy-lidded eyes. “Come on, let's go find your brother, and if we do, then you must keep yourpromise of driving me wild with pleasure. And just so you know, sirens have quite the call,” I add with a wink.

Kai

My god, did I actually just pleasure this woman—this siren—on a rock in the middle of a beach? Never have I done anything so reckless and so improper in my life, but damn did she taste good. I don’t know what came over me, but I couldn’t stop myself. I had to have her and was desperate to explore every inch of her beautiful, color-shifting skin.

I would have taken her fully, but I can’t let myself forget the task at hand. This intoxicating feeling that comes over me every time I look at her needs to be pushed aside, but it feels like if I don’t claim her and make her mine, I will actually die. I huff outa laugh, because it sounds so dramatic, and it is, but it’s exactly how it feels.

I don’t even know this woman, how can she have such an effect on me? Is it something about the siren’s call? Is that what she meant by‘sirens have quite the call’? Maybe she’s seducing me, making me feel this way with whatever powers she has.

It’s going to be a painfully long walk to the other side of the island if I can’t manage to keep my creeping urges at bay. I glance toward the horizon, where storm clouds gather in a thick band that seems to stretch as far as I can see around the island. The ocean churns beneath them, matching the intensity of the dark gray sky, and a sense of dread knots in my stomach at the scene. I want to learn more about those storms and this island.

As we continue walking along the beach just on the outside of the forest, I can’t help but notice the vibrant flowers littered amongst the greenery. Blossoms I’ve never seen before peek through the lush plant life, boasting every color imaginable, their stems full of blossoms. I want so badly to stop and study them. Their petals are so intricate, some plain, while others have beautiful patterns on their velvet blooms. Not only are their colors exemplary, but their scents are spellbinding, drawing me in like a moth to flame.

For a moment, I dare to think that being shipwrecked here might be a blessing in disguise, for I never would have seen the beauty this place holds, but then I think of the crew members I paid to come on this journey with me. How many of them lost their lives? And Dru? What if he met the same fate as those men, drowned beneath the stormy seas?
