“Let’s go,” she orders, and her firm tone, the way she makes it very clear she has no intention of letting my cock out of her, makes me even harder.

I grin in the dark. “At your command.”

CHAPTER 35

SLADE

With my hands covering herass, I stand and step us out of the boat. This entrance is nothing but a narrow stop in the canals. Just enough space for the belly of this building to open up within this underground tunnel.

Auren groans against my ear as I move, jostling my still-hard cock within her sheath, and I grit my teeth, stopping myself from thrusting into her.

Focus. I have to fuckingfocus.

I get us to the door in front of the building and reach for the handle. I tug on it, but it doesn’t budge. “There’s—”

She starts rocking on me again, using her wrapped legs to fuck herself over me, her moans delirious and heady. “Yes…”

My vision starts to blacken, like my body is deciding to sacrifice my sight for my cock. I don’t blame it one bit. There’s not enough rushing blood to go around.

With desperation, I try the handle again, but can’t get it to turn. So I lift my foot and kick in the door. Auren doesn’t even seem to notice.

I need a soft surface to lay her down so I can fuck her hard. For hours. Days. For-ever.

My balls are so tight, so full, and my head is throbbing with the need to explode inside of her. I’m barely holding on. Only able to do so because my need to take care of her outweighs my need to keep fucking her.

“Hurry,” she says as I step past the door and into the building. I reach back to shove the door shut. “Gold,” I grit out.

She doesn’t need me to explain. Her hand lifts, and gold splatters against the wood, sealing the broken door in place.

I climb up the staircase in front of us, taking the steps three at a time. Auren’s moans deepen as my movements make my dick shift inside of her, but when I feel her pussy squeeze over me, I stumble against the wall.

Lust takes over. My hips punch forward as I start to piston into her, making her squeal and writhe before I remember myself.

“Shit…” I curse before forcing myself to move, to keep going. I pull her away from the wall, finding that we’re in a narrow corridor. I latch my focus onto the open door and the bed I can see just past it.

I’m there within five steps, kicking the bedroom door shut behind me. It slams so hard that the wooden rafters along the ceiling creak. With a quick glance around, I make sure that the room is safe. Window is boarded. Bedding is clean. There are no other doors in here and definitely no people—luckily for them.

I set Auren on the bed gently, but as soon as I do, she starts tearing at my clothes. “Off,” she demands. “I want everything off.”

My mouth hitches up at the corner. “Demanding thing, aren’t you?” I kick off my boots and let my trousers drop. Auren reaches up and rips my shirt right down the middle, shocking us both.

“Hmm,” I say, glancing down. “Verydemanding.”

She looks at me with defiance. “I’m not sorry.”

I chuckle before dragging my cock out of her. She whines. “I wouldn’t want you to be,” I say, and then I shove back in hard, pinning her in place as I roll my hips and grind in deep. She flings back on the bed, her moan drowning out the sound of the headboard smacking into the plaster.

Leaning down, I smooth my hand over the golden chest plate that’s still melded to her torso. “Drop your gold. I want to see all of you.”

She blinks open her eyes, glancing down like she forgot it was even there. Then, the armor starts to ripple, the metal melting down, and she bares herself to me. My eyes devour her. My heart feasts.

I trace the curve of her waist, the underside of her breast, and over the line of her collarbone before smoothing up her lips. “You are the most Divine being to have ever walked the earth,” I whisper.

A pretty blush darkens her cheeks. Her ribbons curl toward me, stroking against my chest, dipping to my groin, and then sliding even furtherdown…

I smirk. “Little flirts.”

Auren’s breath hitches. Her ribbons come up to wrap around my back, slipping between the spikes on my arms and the ones that have punched down my spine. I don’t even know when they came out. Don’t remember it happening. But it’s no wonder she’s making me lose control. Not with her scent so heady. Not with this hunger throbbing between us.
