Ayo crawls into my lap, straddling me. “You think that highly of me?”
I cup his face with one hand, the other resting on his hip. “Ayo, I think the world of you. You just took down a serial killer while wearing a hospital gown. Half the supes in the city turned up to search for you because you mean so much to so many people. You’re the most incredible person I’ve ever met. I’m honoured to be the one fate chose for you.”
Ayo blinks back tears as he presses his lips to mine, happiness sparking in his scent, dulling the pain from before. He pulls back sooner than I’d like. “Bond with me?”
I search his eyes, wanting so badly to say yes but not wanting to take advantage of him when he’s still reeling from yesterday.
At my hesitation, he narrows his eyes. “I decided I was ready to bond with you when we were sneaking through the manor. I realised you’re more of a home to me than Nyoka and the coven have been in a decade. So don’t you dare say no just because last night was a shit-fest of epic proportions.”
A slow grin spreads across my face. My mate is adorable when he’s assertive, and he’s definitely alleviated my concern. “I would love to.”
Ayo gives me a decisive nod. “Good. I already learnt the spell. I want you to be mine in every way.”
There’s a possessiveness and confidence to his tone that I haven’t noticed before today. It’s seriously hot.
I toy with the waistband of his blue briefs, smirking. “Better get naked then.”
We divest ourselves of our underwear until all that’s left between us is Ayo’s focus, glinting in a shaft of low sunlight. Since Ayo is in an assertive mood I let him grab the lube from the bedside table before climbing back into my lap. When I hold out my hand, he squirts lube onto my fingers before putting some on his own palm.
He spreads his knees in a way that gives me easier access as I reach around him and circle his pucker with a fingertip. He takes my mouth in a searing kiss as he wraps a slick hand around my cock, not hesitating to use a firm grip to stroke me.
I groan into his mouth and slip one finger into his hole up to the first knuckle. He gasps against my mouth and immediately pushes back on my finger until I’m all the way inside him. “Ung, that’s it. Get me ready for you.”
Ayo is always chatty and in a hurry when we have sex, but there seems to be an increased urgency to the way he starts riding my finger.
It’s an urgency I’m not immune to. There’s so much lust in his scent that it’s masking his pain, and there’s a deep love shining in his eyes that makes me desperate to give him everything he wants. As I withdraw my finger so I can insert two, he leaves me in no doubt of what that is.
“Yes, Ethan. More. Stretch me. Get me ready for that fat cock. Goddess, I love you.”
I grip the back of his neck and slam my mouth down on his, stretching him as requested and taking control of the kiss. He tastes like the future I didn’t know I could have.
He seems to have forgotten what he was doing with my cock, his hand just resting on my shaft as he moans into my mouth, his own cock leaking. I insert a third finger, stretching him fully, then crook them.
He breaks away from my mouth with a yell.
I rake my gaze over him, all sweat-slick skin and hungry eyes. “I can’t wait to be inside you.”
“Do it, do it, do it,” he chants, lifting off my fingers with a whimper. “Fuck, hurry up.”
“I love you,” I tell him as I position him over my shaft, trying to inject some romance into the proceedings.
He sinks down onto me with a long, low moan. “I know.”
His warm channel is gripping me so tightly that I let him get away with his sass. “Ayo, I’ll love you forever.”
His eyes flash with challenge. “Prove it.”
I almost laugh as I give up on any romance right now. Truthfully, I never could resist a challenge. I grip his hips so I can lift him almost off my cock, then I slam him back down as I simultaneously thrust up into him.
He frantically grabs at my shoulders as his eyes roll back in his head. “Yes!Ethan.Fuck me. Fuck me so good.”
This definitely isn’t the slow lovemaking I assumed our bonding would be, but it’s so much better because Ayo has a confidence to him he didn’t have before. It’s seriously sexy that he’s demanding I give him what he wants.
As I continue to thrust up into his tight heat, I realise I’m going to struggle to say no to him ever again. I love this sorcerer with every fibre of my being. I belong to him just as surely as he belongs to me.
His cock bounces with every thrust, the swollen head bumping his stomach. “I’m close, Ethan. I’m close.”
I’m not that far off myself. “Ready to bond, sweet thing?”
