For a moment all I could do was breathe, staring up at the dark ceiling of the tent as my senses came back one by one.My ears were ringing and my face felt tingly, like I'd stuck my tongue in an electrical outlet.
Somehow all the times he'd shot me that unashamed grin and promised to lick me, I'd never imagined anything like this.I pressed a hand to my cheek, marveling at how hot my skin was, even as a laugh bubbled out of me.
Dargo appeared above me, his chin glinting with my wetness and the sight of it sent another pang of arousal through me.He grinned, looking way too pleased with himself.
"What is it, Firebrand?"
"Looks like I've been licked," I giggled, realizing how idiotic I sounded but too buzzed and satisfied to care.
He smirked, even as his eyes lit up with a feral sort of pride.
"Just as promised."
I knew that he'd want sex now, and all my earlier nerves about the act had been completely obliterated by that orgasm.But I felt loose and floaty and oh-so-comfortable sprawled under him that I didn't know how I'd manage to participate.
He leaned down and kissed me, his lips slick, his tongue mimicking the sensual things he'd done to me already.I wrapped my arms around his neck and closed my eyes as I lost myself in the lazy, sensual rhythm of his mouth.
Too soon he pulled back, eyes warm with affection as he rolled off me and flopped onto his back.Off balance yet again, I stared at him, feeling extra naked without his body over mine.
"What are you doing?"I asked, wondering if there was some signal I'd missed.
He sighed happily and tucked his arm behind his head.
"Going to sleep next to a well pleased mate."
I sat up, holding an arm over my breasts as I stared down at him.
"That's it?"I didn't understand what was going on, and some of the afterglow was disappearing as I realized he didn't plan to have sex.
He opened one eye and peered at me.
"Did I not satisfy you?"He moved as if to get up again."I can lick you some more, but I'll admit I'm a little tired to do this all night.”
I motioned between us.
"I thought-" I shook my head and cursed when the tent swayed with the motion.The booze had finally caught up with me, and I was feeling a little too sloshy to stay upright.
Dargo chuckled and pulled my head down to his chest.
"There will be plenty of time to do everything we want.Tonight we can enjoy this, and once you're clear-headed, I’ll gentle you and cement our mating."
"Seriously?"I grouched, wishing he didn't make such a comfy pillow."I'm not that drunk, I knew what I was saying yes to."
"I believe you little Firebrand.But when I make you mine, I want nothing between us, not fear or too much brew."
Huh.I laid my hand on his belly realizing for the first time he'd kept his loin cloth on.Maybe Penny was right, this really wasn't just about sex for him.
