Chapter7
Reis heardHudson’s heavy tread retreating back down the hallway and had no doubt his beta would make sure they weren’t disturbed.
Almost immediately after he’d realized Kiley was his mate, she’d been critically injured. After that, they had faced one crisis after another. First with almost fighting the EMTs and then watching Kiley getting sent to a human hospital by mistake before waiting forever to find out she’d been transferred and then having to confront angry little Anton the wannabe alpha.
In all of that, the intense, primal desire he felt for his fated mate had been muted and buried deep enough to be background noise.
Now that Kiley was safe, and Anton was dealt with, Reis let the background noise come crashing into the foreground. A passionate heat consumed him, bringing sweat to his brow and causing his gorilla to scream with desire.
Kiley, his mate, lay on the bed and she met his gaze spark for spark. Reis knew she wanted him as badly as he craved her.
He walked toward her, allowing himself to feel all the yearning he’d built up over a lifetime.
“Kiley…” he breathed her name in a velvet soft whisper. His tongue caressed the sound like a one-word poem. Kiley as a person, a concept, and a soul descended upon him and infused his being. Never again would he be able to think solely of himself.
“Reis.” She sighed as he drew nearer. “I’ve wanted you to touch me since our eyes first met.”
Reis moved to the bed and caressed her cheek. Kiley sighed again, her eyes fluttering closed. She kissed his palm, and he slid his hand around to the back of her head. Lifting her slightly, Reis drew her into a hard, deep kiss. Her sweet taste thrilled him and set his heart to thundering.
His cock twitched at the feel of her body against his own as a primal growl escaped his throat. Still kissing her, he reached down and flung the sheets aside, exposing her body so only a thin hospital gown separated them.
Reis abandoned her mouth and traveled across her face to pepper soft kisses to her neck as his hand wormed its way up under the short gown. He teased the delicate skin of her thighs as he inched higher, not stopping until he reached the apex of her legs. Kiley moaned softly as he stroked his finger along her damp, bare slit. The tempting scent of her arousal reached his nose, and his gorilla bounced off the walls of his mind with the need to claim his mate.
Soon.
Abandoning her pussy, he continued his travels, bringing the gown up and over her head with her help so she was then bared to him fully.
So fucking perfect.
So fucking mine.
Reis didn’t waste a moment, his gaze zeroing in on her breasts a spare second before lowering his head and capturing one of her nipples between his lips. He suckled and laved the hardening nub, thrilled that she responded to quickly to his attentions. He longed to make her feel good—amazing—and teasing her pert breasts was the first step.
“Kiley, my mate,” he mumbled into her soft flesh. “I am yours, and you… you are mine.”
He nibbled the nipple he’d been teasing, drawing a gasp from his mate—his Kiley. “Yes.”
As he tortured her breasts with pleasure, he caressed her bare body, exploring every dip and curve of her form with his palms. He memorized her every response, cataloging it for later lovemaking. How she shuddered when he stroked her side and the way she trembled when he teased her upper thighs. And the way she spread those long legs of hers, tipping her hips when he neared her pussy.
And he’d never forget the way she gasped in delight with the first glide of his finger along her wet pussy lips. Already she was wet and wanting him and all he’d done was tease her breasts. He stroked her slit, up and down and back again, over and over, tormenting them both with the pleasure she held.
“Reis, please.” She mewled and begged, dainty, barely-there claws emerging to slice through the hospital’s thin bedding. How would it feel to experience those pinprick claws in the midst of ecstasy?
Reis couldn’t wait to find out.
Through with teasing them both, he dipped his finger between her pussy lips, relishing the wet warmth within the folds. He mapped her pussy as he’d mapped her body—with careful touches and gentle exploration. The way she tensed when he teased her clit and oh how she moaned when he circled her opening. Even more wetness coated his hand, the scent of her desire taunting his gorilla and making his mouth water.
At last, he couldn’t resist any longer. Not when what he craved more than his next breath was so near. He abandoned Kiley’s breasts with a gentle kiss and soft nuzzle before meandering his way down her body toward her pussy, the sweet, delectable scent that drove him mad with desire. His cock ached and throbbed within his khakis, his body anxious to claim his mate fully, but he had a hunger to sate first.
Reis wasted no time positioning his mate as he craved—angled across the bed so her hips rested on the edge with her legs over his shoulders, her pussy bared to him. “So soft and smooth. My Kiley, my beautiful swan.”
He didn’t wait for any response, simply lifting her hips and bringing his mouth to the source of the scent that taunted him. He licked and lapped at her labia, gathering every hint of her flavors that she gifted him. Her musky sweetness exploded across his tongue and pleasure shot straight to his cock, hardening further in his pants until he thought he’d split the zipper.
“Oh god, Reis,” she cried, her fingers grasping the back of his head. “Don’t stop.”
Using his fingers, he held her pussy lips apart as he sought her clit, finding the nubbin engorged and flush with arousal. He kissed her swollen clit, capturing it between his lips and giving the bundle of nerves a gentle suck.
Kiley cried out, writhing on the bed beneath his firm grip. He pinned her and flicked his tongue over her sensitive clit, finding a rhythm that seemed to both torture and arouse his delicious mate. Over and over he tormented her with the unending pattern of circles and flicks, drawing her nearer to release until…
