Corbin gave a low curse, his voice thickwith lust, as the broad head pressed inside me. “Gods, you’retight.”
“You’re just big,” I pointed out, ratherbreathlessly. “And so thick.”
“Take me slowly, then,” he murmured. “Asslowly as you need to, darling.”
“I will,” I whispered. Slowly, as he hadrequested, I lowered myself down, moaning softly as his thick shaftfilled me completely. It felt so good—so right and I knew itwas exactly what I needed. “Corbin,” I said, looking into his eyes.“Now. I need it now.”
“My pleasure, darling,” he growled softly.“But as I said, we are going to take it slow.”
And he did take it slow, incredibly,amazingly slow. Looking into my eyes, he pulled almost allthe way out and then sank back into me, filling me to the hiltagain…and again and again and again. With every deep, slow thrust Ifelt the head of his cock kiss the mouth of my womb and his pelvicbone pressing hard against my swollen clit. It was exquisitetorture. My pleasure began to build once more and this time I knewnothing would hold it back.
“Corbin,” I moaned, digging my fingers intohis shoulders. “Close, I’m so close…”
“Come for me then,” he murmured, stillthrusting. “Come for me while I make love to you, darling.”
“But…but won’t you come too?” I gasped as hepulled out of me again and pressed up into me.
Corbin shook his head, his eyes glinting.“Not yet. Not for a long, long time. I told you we were taking itslow, didn’t I?”
“Not that slow though,” I protested.“Not…oh, oh!” Just then my pleasure peaked and I could feelmyself contracting all around him, squeezing his shaft as though mybody was begging for him to fill me.
But Corbin didn’t come…he just held stillinside me, pressing deep and hard, giving me what I needed until Iwas ready to go on.
“So beautiful when you come, darling,” hemurmured hoarsely. “And I love the feel of you all around me,milking me so hard.”
“Corbin,” I begged. “Come with me—comein me. I want to feel you filling me up.”
“Not yet,” he growled softly and began tomove again.

I don’t know how long it lasted but I wascompletely worn out by the time we were done. I had lost count ofthe orgasms Corbin gave me—by the end I was so exhausted I couldbarely stay upright in his lap.
When he finally allowed himself to come, wecuddled in bed with my head on his chest and I sighedcontentedly.
“That was amazing.”
“It was,” Corbin agreed, kissing the top ofmy head. “Are you happy, darling?”
“Very.” I sighed. “It’s funny, I never wouldhave thought I could be happy with a vampire.”
“We are an irritating bunch,” Corbin agreedwith a hint of laughter in his deep voice. “Still, I hope over thenext few centuries you can learn to put up with me.”
“Centuries…” I sighed and shook my head.“It’s too much to take in right now.”
“Then don’t try. Simply sleep,” he urged.“Sleep in my arms as I wanted you to the first night I brought youhere.”
“I want to.” I yawned. “But…I’mworried.”
“About Taylor?” he asked. “I told you, shewill be fine.”
“It’s easy for you to say.” I sighed. “Afterwhat that bastard Roderick put her through, I don’t think she’llever be fine again.” I looked up at him. “Corbin, do you thinkpaying the Crimson Debt—having someone else pay it for her or toher or whatever—would heal her trauma?”
He shook his head. “I do not know. It issaid to heal all ills—physical, emotional, and spiritual. But Ibelieve that physical ailments are what most who pay the Debt seekto treat. Taylor’s wounds are deep—much deeper than any surfacetrauma.”
“I know.” I pressed my face against his sideand yawned. Sleep was overtaking me and I could barely talk I wasso tired. “I just…just want her to be happy,” I said with anotheryawn. “I wish she could get her life back and…and be as happy as weare.”
Corbin answered something but I didn’t catchit. As I drifted off in his arms, my last thoughts were of howhappy I was and how much I wished the same for Taylor. Before sleepclaimed me completely, I sent a prayer to whoever might belistening that my friend would find the road to her ownhappiness.
