“Yes,” she said at last. “It’s what I want.”
Well, that answered that question.
Beneath him, Maya opened her legs and the scent of her arousal hit him like a shot to the solar plexus. Hot. So very hot. Cole’s blood soared through his veins with the speed of a racing jaguar. And all of it seemed to be going to his cock. It was straining beneath the comforter he had wrapped around his waist, begging to be set free. It throbbed as surely as the pulse in his wrist. God help him, but if he didn’t calm the hell down in the next few seconds, he was going to go off like the fourth of July.
It might help if he focused on her for a while. Yeah, right. Like anything would help. However, his wolf liked the idea of them focusing on their mate, and at least if the creature was appeased somewhat, Cole wouldn’t have to focus on a handful of things at once.
He placed a gentle kiss on her mouth, then trailed his tongue along her jawline and down the slope of her slender neck. Her pulse throbbed dangerously beneath his mouth, but he ignored it, pulling down the neckline of the little t-shirt she had on to place kisses over her chest.
“Take it off,” he murmured against her warm flesh. “It’s in the way.”
Before he’d even finished his sentence, he grabbed the hem and lifted it up her body, exposing her firm, round breasts. He groaned at the sight of them. Jesus, this was supposed to be calming him down, not getting him even more worked up. He leaned down and sucked one of her nipples into his mouth, gently rolling it between his teeth, and the little bud hardened beautifully. Satisfied, he moved on to the next one, giving it the same treatment.
Beneath him, Maya writhed, arching her back and gasping in pleasure as he flicked her nipples with his tongue. When they were both equally erect, Cole got to his knees then looked down at his prize. Damn, he was a lucky sonofabitch, that was for sure. How did this perfect specimen of a woman get lumbered with him?
He ghosted his fingers over her now pert little nipples then ran his hands down her sides until he reached her panties. He hooked his fingers in the elastic and dragged them down her thighs to her ankles. Cole’s control nearly snapped when he took in her neatly shaven mound. He pushed at the insides of her thighs to get her to spread her legs wider, then eyed her sex with a mixture of satisfaction and insatiable need. Down here, the scent of her arousal was amplified times a hundred. He descended on her with the ferocity of a starving man at a banquet, dragging his tongue between her folds and lapping at the juices from her core. Pure perfection.
It had been a while since Cole had last been with a woman. He wasn’t a monk, but he worked long hours, often into the night, and that didn’t leave room for much else. That meant he should have taken this slowly, savoring every moment, but he was desperate to bury himself inside Maya’s warm heat. He’d go slowly the next time they were together. Maybe. He sure hoped she liked hard and fast.
When he clamped his mouth around her clit, Maya let out a long, guttural groan. The sound made Cole’s wolf vibrate with excitement. The beast had calmed considerably, but it reacted as if each sound Maya made was pure ecstasy. Cole sucked on the little nub of Maya’s clit and her back came off the bed.
She barely had time to sink back down again before she arched her back once more. Her legs were getting restless, trying to clamp down against the side of Cole’s head, and the noises that were leaving her mouth were pure sex. She was close—she had to be. Cole landed a couple more flicks against her clit and she cried out, her body bucking and swaying through her orgasm.
When her body’s tremors had subsided, Cole reared up then covered her body with his. He ripped the comforter away and pressed his cock to the sopping wet entrance to her body.
“I’m going to fuck you now,” he said against her ear.
“Yes,” she said breathlessly.
He pushed inside her, forcing a ragged groan from her throat, then stilled his hips when he was as deep as his body would allow.
“Cole.” She whispered his name, her voice a heady mix of need and awe.
Heaven. Cole finally understood what heaven was. His body shook from the need to take her hard. He fought the urge and instead leaned down and captured her mouth, forcing his tongue between her lips. When he was sure he could last more than a couple of seconds, he lifted his hips then thrust into her again.
Maya wrapped her legs around Cole’s hips and as he took her, their bodies moved together in perfect synchronicity. Just as Cole felt his orgasm build at the base of his spine, Maya’s legs started to tremble.
“Oh, God. Cole, I think I’m—”
She slammed her head back against the pillow and came hard and as her core clamped down on Cole’s cock, he had nowhere to go but to follow her into the abyss.
He stilled his hips and roared out her name as he came, his release shooting out of his cock with the force of a tsunami. As he buried his head in her neck, his incisors shot down from his gums and it took every bit of willpower he possessed not to sink them into her creamy skin.
As he came down from his mind-numbing orgasm, Cole knew he would never touch another woman sexually again. Before he’d met Maya, that thought had terrified him, but now, he couldn’t have cared less. As long as he got to sleep with her lying next to him every night, he would die a very happy man.
