“Let me hear you,” he says against my skin. “I want to know exactly what I’m doing to you.”
I do. Every sound I make seems to encourage him, and he works me with single-minded focus until I’m shaking beneathhis tongue. His fingers join his mouth, pushing inside me while he sucks my clit, and the sensation makes my hips buck off the mattress.
“Reeyan,” I gasp. “I’m going to—”
The orgasm crashes over me before I can finish the warning. I bow off the bed and call his name as pleasure rolls through every nerve ending. He doesn’t stop until I push him away, oversensitive and trembling.
“Come here,” I beg, reaching for him.
He moves back up my body and kisses me. I can taste myself on his lips, and the intimacy of it makes me clench with renewed want.
“Inside me,” I order. “Now.”
He positions himself at my entrance and pushes in slowly. I’m already wet and ready from what his mouth did, but the stretch still makes me gasp. He fills me completely, buried to the hilt, while we both adjust, followed by long, slow strokes that make my toes curl. Every thrust sends sparks racing up my spine. I wrap my legs around his waist and match his rhythm, taking him deeper.
The mate bond flares between us, amplifying everything we’re feeling. His pleasure feeds mine until I can’t tell where I end and he begins. We move together like we’ve done this a thousand times instead of just a handful.
“Harder,” I plead. “Need more.”
He braces his hands on either side of my head and increases his pace. The new angle makes me see stars. I dig my nails into his shoulders and hold on while he drives into me with enough force to make the bed shake.
“Touch yourself,” he orders, voice rough. “I want to feel you come around me.”
I slide my hand between us and circle my clit. The added sensation makes my inner walls flutter around him. He curses and thrusts harder, chasing his own release while I chase mine.
My second orgasm builds faster than the first. I feel it coiling at the base of my spine, winding tighter with each stroke. When it breaks, I shatter. My body convulses around him as pleasure tears through me in waves that seem endless.
His knot swells and locks us together as he follows me over the edge. He groans my name and empties himself deep inside me while I’m still clenching around him. The bond between us blazes so hot I can barely breathe through it.
We collapse together in a sweaty, panting heap. His knot keeps us joined, but this time, I don’t mind at all. I want to stay connected to him like this forever.
“I love you,” he whispers against my hair.
“I love you, too.”
We lie there until his knot softens enough to pull out. He rolls us onto our sides and pulls me against his chest, one arm draped protectively over my waist.
“The eggs are definitely ruined,” I comment after a while.
“Worth it.”
I laugh and snuggle closer. “We should probably eat something eventually.”
“Eventually.” He kisses my shoulder. “Right now, I just want to stay here with you.”
“That works for me.”
My phone goes off on the nightstand. I glance at it and see a message from Caelan.
Mom says to tell you she’s proud of you. We all are. Thank you for giving us this gift.
I show the message to Reeyan. He reads it and smiles.
“Your family is healing,” he comments.
“We all are.” I set the phone back down and curl into him. “One day at a time.”
Outside, I hear the sounds of Grayhide territory waking up. Wolves going about their morning routines. The world keeps turning, but right here in this bed, everything feels perfect.
