Her body rippled. “I do,” she whispered, with a great deal of intimacy in her tone.
In that instant, he felt his entire world shift. He certainly hadn’t anticipated just how much her trust was going to hit him, emotionally. His heart began pounding and his entire body started to shake.
He talked to her, reassuring her as he fed his cock into her ass, one inch at a time, slowly, carefully, taking his time to introduce himself to her body. As he gently pushed past her ringed passage, he could feel her body relaxing for him. With her hands braced on the wall, she moved against him, wiggling slightly. “That’s it, baby, open up for me. You set the pace and I’ll follow.” She made a deep sexy noise and pushed against him. Once he was buried inside her, he remained still for a long time, letting her get used to the fullness.
When he felt her body loosen, he softened his voice and asked, “Does that feel okay, sweetheart?” He slid his hand around her hips, and placed it over her flat stomach, holding her to him.
She swallowed and he sensed it was most difficult for her to speak. “Yes,” she murmured shakily, and the array of emotion in that one word stopped him short and nearly drove him to his knees. “It’s different but nice to have you inside me like this.” When she trembled understanding hit him—Chloe was giving herself to him in a way she’d never given herself to another.
Realizing the significance in what they were doing and what she was offering him, his heart started pounding, so hard he was sure it was going to burst through his chest. It occurred to him that it no longer felt like they were just having sex, in some strange way it felt like they were connecting, like he was marking her, claiming her as his mate. It took a great amount of effort to breathe, to speak. He let out a low, slow breath. “Babe, are you sure about this?”
“Yes. In fact, I’ve never been surer about anything before,” she assured him, her deep cadence letting him know she felt the powerful, intimate connection every bit as much as he did.
He touched her hair, and she angled her head to see him. When he saw the damp sheen in her eyes, the need to offer her something as potent as she was offering him moved through him and made him shake. Wanting to make this perfect for her, he removed the shower nozzle from the hook, put the spray on pulse and placed it directly over her clit.
“Oh my God, Jared,” she cried out and bucked against him. He felt her knees give and he held her to him, supporting her with his body.
They rocked together, establishing a rhythm, both indulging in the exotic pleasure as they made sweet, passionate love. Electricity sizzled between them and his cock throbbed to the point of pain.
He pushed a finger into her opening and felt her ripples while he continued to spray her clit with the nozzle. Her soft murmur touched his soul and blistering heat exploded inside him.
When he pressed another finger inside her, she erupted all over him. “Jared…” she cried out. As she climaxed, her ass muscles tightened around his cock and pushed him over the precipice.
Lost in pleasure, he felt ravenous, carnal, completely out of control. Powerful magic raced through his veins and every ounce of concentration he had began to crumble. And he needed that concentration if he wanted to maintain his human form. He stole a quick glance at his hands which were morphing, turning red. Oh fuck. Oh sweet fuck. With his body burning up, he desperately needed to douse the fire inside him before the beast took control.
When he felt her orgasm subside, he dropped the nozzle, gripped her hips and released high inside her ass, needing this to be over as much as he needed it to continue.
A moment later, after his cock had stopped spasming, he took a minute to compose himself before slowly easing out of her welcoming warmth. He glanced at his body, pleased to see that he had returned to his human form. But for how long, he couldn’t be sure. Not with Chloe making him so crazy and breathing new life into his magic.
She turned to face him and placed her hand on his cheek. Smiling, and trying to lighten the mood she touched his forehead. “All that stress has made you flushed, I’d better put you to bed.”
They stepped from the shower, and Jared took his time to towel dry her, noting the way her body quivered beneath his touch. The same way he quivered beneath hers. The way his dragon would respond to its true partner. Even though he’d never experienced a sexual bonding with his mate before, complete knowledge of his lineage had been passed down to him by his ancestors centuries ago, before he’d found himself all alone in the world.
But how? Why? How could this woman—this human women to be specific—be the one and only one meant for him? Especially when dragons only mated with others in their race. Jesus, he had no idea how any of this was possible. But the way she’d awakened the magic in him, her sweet cream acting like a catalyst for his dying power, told his dragon side that he’d met his match. He didn’t have all the answers and only knew that she was his mate, and that she was important to him, and to his future existence, as well as to the existence of all the good people on Ryuu.
