Her eyes got wide, and I saw a blush creep its way into her cheeks. “No, I haven’t learned how to shield against sending things to Jax, so I’ve been avoiding…” she trailed off, her gaze flicking to the bed.
“Is his shield still up?” She’d told me what had happened at Stanley’s stand. I could confirm that she had successfully spoken in my head as she intended. I had heard none of her conversation with Jax.
I saw as she mentally checked. “It is,” she said and gave me a smile. “Did you want to offer me a power boost?”
Hell, yeah, I did. I stood suddenly, sending the chair to the ground behind me. She didn’t have time to react before I was on her, grabbing her by the hair as I crushed my lips into hers. I felt the growl in my chest as I finally tasted my mate on my tongue. My power surged as I gave myself over to the lust in my veins. She matched my intensity, pulling me in closer to her. I put my hand out on the table to steady myself. Nope, this won’t work. There’s too much distance between us.
I broke off the kiss to scoop her up from the seat, setting her back down on the table and stepping between her thighs. I grabbed her by the hips, sliding her towards the edge until she rubbed against me. I was hard and wanting so badly to just bury myself in her.
“Will my princess allow me the honor of giving her the power boost she is so hungry for?” I whispered into her ear, grabbing her by the jaw to give my mouth better access to her throat.
“I’m supposed to make you work for it,” she muttered under her breath. Her breasts rose and fell with each breath. I didn’t want to tear my eyes away, but that wasn’t a yes either.
“Tell me what you want from me,” I said, tilting her head to look right into her eyes. I could see the fire that danced under her skin, my power flowing through her. “Tell me or you get nothing.”
That fire in her danced along. “No sex. You haven’t earned it yet,” she purred.
I growled in response, “Tell me what you want me to do to you. Exactly what you want.”
“Kiss me.”
“Where?” She wouldn’t get off that easy.
“Everywhere,” she groaned, pulling our lips together again. I guess I could work with that. It wasn’t specific like I wanted, but it was more than I was hoping to get.
I kissed her until she wrapped her legs around my waist, pulling me in closer to her. Wrapping my hand around her neck, I pushed her down until her back was against the table. Looking down at her, I slowly pushed my hips into her, grinding against her. Her eyes fluttered shut as she moaned.
“Look at me,” I commanded, and her eyes snapped open. We didn’t even have our clothes off yet. I took my hand from her neck and placed it on her breast, letting fire slowly crawl from my palm and burn the dress into nothing more than a sprinkle of ash. I left her bra and underwear intact for the moment. I wanted to enjoy every layer of my present.
I drew shapes on the swells of her breasts in the ashes. She laid still, breathing heavy, watching my finger as it swirled around her flesh. Everywhere we touched felt overloaded with power. Sharing it between us like this was how the power was meant to be all along.
“I don’t feel any kissing,” Morrigan said, scratching her nails down my arms. Well, playtime’s over.
Lips crashed as teeth searched for a lip to bite. Our kiss took on a fever pitch. I couldn’t get enough of her. Giving her a moment to catch her breath, I watched my hand trail down through the valley between her breasts, making a path through the ash that covered her body like glitter, heading down to the band of her underwear. Fucking little dragons. Really? That was the underwear she paired with a sundress to go on our day out.
I dropped to my knees on the floor, pushing her legs further apart. Caressing my thumb down the middle of her as I burned the horrible excuse for underwear from existence. Glancing up to her, she was propped up on her elbows with a smirk and a raised eyebrow.
“Too bad you specified kissing only,” I purred, looking her deep in the eyes as I took a lick that followed the path my thumb had taken. Morrigan groaned and let her head fall back. “Oh no my princess, you must watch.” I blew out a light breeze of cold air where my tongue had been.
She brought her head up achingly slowly. Her eyes opened but barely, and it was the sexiest thing I had ever seen in my life. That sight right there of pure lust was all mine. I quickly went to work kissing my favorite set of lips.
I felt her hand tentatively on the back of my head and her legs quivered but never progressed. She was having a hard time letting go. She needed something more.
“Tell me what you need,” I growled at her.
“More,” she panted.
“More what?” I couldn’t read her damn mind. Now was not the time to be shy.
“I just need more. No sex, but more. Touch me, please,” she whimpered.
Ah, more. I smiled wickedly; I knew exactly how to give more. I spread her legs wide, keeping them tightly against the table. I started with my tongue, nice and slow, easing her back in instead of trying to rush back to where we were. I let her build back up, taking her almost to where she stalled out before. The point where she needed more.
I watched her eyes snap open and look down as I took my mouth off her and she felt the blunt tipped end of my tail slowly swirling around her entrance.
“Did you mean it when you said the horns and tail turned you on?” I questioned, simply teasing her while waiting for an answer.
She whimpered and nodded her head.
