He caressed my stomach as he kissed my ear. “I love you, baby doll. My world is better with you in it. You know I’ll keep you and our little ones safe.”
I covered his hands with mine. “I know you will. But there will come a time when you might not be able to.” I shuddered to think of my grandmother. “Your dad is worried about Harriet. I am too. But I want you to know that I will protect these babies at all costs. We’re in this together, Sam. Partners, right?”
“Forever.” He nibbled on my ear.
Silence ticked for a beat.
“We need to start thinking of a nursery,” I said. “And clothes and furniture… oh my. What if we are having twins? Then everything will be doubled.” I sucked in air. “Can we keep them safe?” I stiffened.
His hot breath breezed over my neck. “Relax.” His tone was husky and soothing. “No one outside of our small circle here will get near them.”
I had no doubt they would be well protected, but stranger things had happened. I sank further into Sam, feeling his strong arms around me, giving me a sense of security, at least for now.
“On a different topic, Junior is in the men’s barracks,” he said.
I gaped. “For real?” That anxiety I was trying to shove into a deep hole dug its claws into me.
“Easy,” Sam said. “We’re checking the nearby area and also city cameras and hotels for any signs of the other Aberdeens. Anyway, we’ll talk to Junior in the morning.” He kissed my ear, sliding his hands up to my breasts.
I closed my eyes. “They’re sore, so be gentle.”
“Always,” he said, his fingers slick with soap as he teased my nipples.
My pussy clenched as my muscles loosened, enjoying the sensation, him, the atmosphere, and us. The outside world could wait, including Junior. Sam and I had to steal time, even if it was only for a minute.
I climbed out of the tub and held out my hand. “I have another way to relax.”
The dark timbre of his chuckle set my clit on fire as he got out, grinning, his cock standing erect. “I like the way you think.” He snagged a towel off the rack.
Once we were both dry, he lifted me into his arms and carried me into the bedroom, where he eased me onto the mattress. “Spread your legs.”
Happy as a clam, I did as he commanded before he dragged his tongue from my knee to my inner thigh, his hair falling forward, the strands tickling my sensitive skin.
“Your lust is off the charts,” he mumbled as his green eyes bled to silver, his fangs front and center.
I giggled, and when I did, he bit. I arched my back at the beesting bite, which only lasted a second before pleasure raced through my veins. While he sucked, I rubbed frantic circles around my throbbing clit. In seconds, I was panting and moaning.
Sam raised his head, blood smeared on his mouth, his eyes hungrier than I’d ever seen. In a flash, he hovered over me and thrust his cock inside me before his mouth crashed to mine. Then he fucked me hard and fast.
I sucked the blood from his lips before our tongues tangoed, groans and moans peppering the air.
“I want to fuck you forever, baby doll. I can’t get enough of you.”
I pulled on his hair as he rode me like a wild stallion.
The headboard banged against the windowsill. Our kisses were sloppy and wet, our skin slick, our breaths heavy.
We rocked and rolled, staring at each another, saying nothing yet saying so much.
Then his body tightened, and he growled his release, my name dropping from his lips.
I froze for a mere second. I loved seeing the alpha vampire come undone, but I couldn’t help but think he might black out again.
But when his dimples winked, I sighed heavily.
“Afraid I was about to pass out?” he asked, sensing my concern.
I laughed. “Yep.” Sure, the chip was off, but who knew if any activity on Sam’s part would flip a switch and turn the stupid thing back on.
