Natalie tackled him.
She took his mouth and straddled his body, her thighs pressing into his hips. “Take off your pants.”
“Mmmph.” He couldn’t speak, but he shoved her back and stood, tearing off the pants he’d been wearing.
Natalie stared. His body was covered in dirt, but his erection stood proudly, jutting out from his body. Natalie eyed it and her mouth watered.
He walked toward her and tapped her chin. “Uh-uh. Not until you’ve got a little more control with those fangs, Red.”
She gripped his hips and ran her tongue up the inside of his thigh, scraping her fangs along his skin and leaving a red, welling line of blood.
“Oh fuck.” He breathed out hard. “You gonna lick that up?”
She couldn’t answer him, but she did as he suggested, and the spike of pleasure that hit her tongue felt like an electric charge.
The blood in the cup had been thick, rich, and heavy. His blood was sweet.
Baojia knelt down and faced her. His hands cupped her breasts, and she let her head fall back. It felt so good. Everywhere he touched felt so good. She wanted him to touch her everywhere.
“Like this?” He sent a wave of amnis licking over her body.
Had she said that aloud? Natalie moaned. It felt so good she wanted to weep.
“Yes, you said that aloud. What about this?” His mouth touched her neck. His lips explored his favorite place to bite, and her body responded instinctively. “Do you want this, Natalie?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” She loved it when he bit her. “But first…” She put a hand on his erection.
“Excellent idea.” He laid her back on the ground, spread her legs, and eased his way inside.
Her flesh was swollen and ready for him. She wrapped her legs around his hips, thrilling at the surge of energy she felt at her back.
Plugged in. She felt like she’d been plugged in and turned on at the same time.
He angled her hips up and went deeper as his fangs pierced her neck.
Without any warning or buildup, Natalie climaxed in a massive, overwhelming wave. Baojia didn’t stop moving in her. He thrust through her climax and into it, holding her as she shuddered and wept.
Her mouth felt empty. Her fangs ached.
“Here.” He kept moving, but he put his hand at the back of her head and brought her mouth to his neck. He turned his head and bared the side of his throat to her.
Natalie didn’t have to be told twice. She hooked her leg over his hips and drew him even deeper as she struck his neck with her fangs and latched on.
His roar of pleasure echoed in the stone chamber.
She held on and sucked hard, swallowing the sweet blood in ravenous gulps.
Thiswas sex. What they’d been doing for the past eight years had only been foreplay.
He convulsed in her arms, and she felt his climax as it if were her own. His blood mingled with hers. His amnis—cool, precise, and deadly—entered her body and twisted around her wild, chaotic energy.
He surrounded her and she grew calm.
This.
This.
This was her mate. Her lover. Her husband. The other half of her soul.
