Ash
She came into my arms without hesitation, a moan escaping her lips before I caught them up with my own.
Finally after months and months of waiting she was going to be mine. Maybe not in the way I wanted and needed her to be mine but this would do. For now.
Closing my arms around her, I tried to envelop her in the heat of my own body. No matter how much I wanted her naked and straddling my lap I wanted her warm and well cared for as well.
My own pleasure would always come second to her. And even though I was desperate to sink into her this first time was going to be no different. Even if it killed me I was going to make sure she was ok first.
With that in mind, I ran my hands up her naked spine. There were goosebumps on her flesh from the cold but the shiver that went up her spine was all me. Slowly I touched her injured shoulder. Pulling my mouth away from her hungry one for a second.
“Does this still hurt?”
In answer, Lainey tried to capture my lips with hers again. Chuckling I shook my head slightly. ”Are you still in pain?” I needed her to answer before i carried on. The thought made me laugh again. Who was I kidding? I was crying on. There was nothing that could stop me now I had her in my arms but if this position was causing her in then I would find another one.
A better one.
One where I could sink into her as far as her body would allow.
“You know what.” a twinkle of mischief lit her eyes from within. “I seem to have forgotten all about it.”
My grin matched hers. Clutching her closely, I found her lips again. My kisses were careful even when the dragon inside of me was roaring at me to get on with already. He was impatient. He always had been. But it was even more clear now we had found our mate. He didn't understand why we hadn’t claimed her yet. Part of the human me was in agreement with him as well.
It would be easy to lay my mark on her. Yes, she would be angry and confused but in time she would learn to love me. She already liked me enough to get naked with me.
I shook the thought away. Grumpy old dragon clamouring in my head or not I would not take away her choices. Lainey would be mine if and when she decided to give me the best gift I'd ever had.
Her love.
“Ash?” Her whispered voice brought me back to myself. And it was only then that I realised I had been so lost in thoughts that I stopped my lazy assault on her lips. “Are you ok”?
“Yes,” I answered without hesitation. “I was just thinking”
“You must have been thinking pretty hard because you went away there for a second.” Lainey’s voice was a little uncertain and I brushed my mouth against hers again. The last thing I wanted was for her to think my mind was anywhere but on the here and now.
On her.
“Penny for your thoughts?”
For three heartbeats I stared at her. “I was thinking how amazing you are going to taste against my tongue Lainey.”
“I haven't brushed my teeth and….”She stammered to stop her cheeks heating in such an adorable way that went straight to my cock. Flexing my hips I rocked it up and into her core. I didn't want there to be any doubt in her mind about what she did to me.
“You didn't mean these lips.” She chewed on the bottom one to make her point.
“No, Lainey. I did not.'' I sucked the lip she had been chewing on into my mouth hard before letting it go with a wet pop. “These lips are delicious but…” Cupping her face in my hands, I held her steady. Punctuating each word with another sip at her mouth. “Can I taste you, Lainey?”
“Please.”
“Fuck.” I swore long and low under my breath. I liked Lainey for the kick-ass woman she was. She drew me in with her no-nonsense attitude but to have her say please like that? It did things to me that I didn't expect.
“Please what?” Gently I moved her from my lap. Laying her down with as much tenderness as I could, my hands shook with the effort of controlling myself as I settled myself between her thighs. Slowly and deliberately I pushed her knees open and for the first time since I had met her all those months ago. I looked upon her fully.
And she was as perfect as the rest of her. A smokey pink pussy greeted my greedy eyes, her folds glinting with wetness that just begged to be lapped up. I wasn't a cat but god I wanted to taste her cream.
“Please Ash.” she was staring at me so intently that it was almost like I could hear her thoughts as my own. This was what a real connection felt like. Not mindless sex, for pleasure's sake. But the coming together of two souls. She was my mate and I was hers.
Lazily I brushed the tip of my finger across her clit and downward, parting her more. “No. That's not right is it?” My eyes flashed as I stared up at her.
Not able to wait anymore, I sank down between her legs. My nose teased against her as I sucked in deep lungfuls of that sweet heady scent that was all her own. “Please what?”
Lainey shuddered under me. Her hips lifting. Begging me with her body to carry on what I had started. To give her the pleasure and the release that my face between her thighs promised.
“Sir.”She finally whimpered. “Please, sir.”
I licked into her with one, long wet swipe of my tongue. “Good girl.”
