Carina opened her mind without his urging. Marcus’s cock stiffened rapidly as she shared how his caresses aroused her on a deep, intimate level. Delicious turmoil swirled inside her. She clutched his shoulders as his touch overwhelmed her senses.
Marcus basked in the sensations running through her as he once again kissed her neck while stroking one of her firm breasts. He rolled the nipple between his thumb and finger firmly. The pleasure mixed with a hint of pain echoed in her mind and drew a groan from him. Sizzling need flared through him, surpassing levels Marcus had ever thought possible.
He moved slowly down from her neck to suck her other nipple into his mouth and let his sharp fangs drag playfully across the beaded tip before drawing it back in to repeat the exquisite torture. Carina shuddered and clutched at his shoulders. She dug her nails into him as wave after wave of sensual delight cascaded through her and flowed into him.
Stroking, licking, and nipping, Marcus explored her as Carina moaned and thrashed in front of the fire. Her eyes closed tightly in ecstasy as he slid between her legs. He teased her pussy with his tongue and fingers, driving her into a fast and intenseorgasm that tested his control. His shaft strained against his zipper, demanding to be released.
Marcus rose to his knees and freed himself, pushing his pants over his hips to his thighs. Carina gripped his torso, pulling him eagerly toward her.
I need you now!she pleaded.
He plunged into her in one powerful motion. Her wet heat wrapped around him in a tight embrace. Marcus gritted his teeth as her sensations echoed in his mind. Linked so closely by their exchange, Marcus could never have fathomed how incredible sex could be.
Little girl.…
Daddy! I feel it too. Move!
Her emotions flowed into him, showing a need that exceeded sweet exchanges and gentleness. Marcus scooped his hands under her hips and lifted her bottom from the floor. He thrust into her, pressing so deeply he brushed the mouth of her womb. Pulling out fully, he filled her completely. Their bodies ground primally against each other. The exchange of life essence had removed her humanity and freed her from doubt or self-consciousness.
She raked his back with her nails as she met each of his powerful strokes. Urging him on with her touch and words, Carina didn’t withhold anything from him. Her orgasm crashed over her, shaking her and echoing through their connection. Buffeted by the storm of their combined pleasure, Marcus resisted until his ironclad control snapped. He came with a roar that shook the room as his hot seed exploded into her.
Marcus collapsed to his forearms. He stroked Carina’s hair from her beautiful face before kissing her softly. Supporting his weight over her, he scanned her, making sure she was unharmed. He traced over the small bruises his mouth and fingers had left on her skin in the aftermath of their passion.
Are you all right, Little one?
Definitely not okay. Changed. Awakened.
His instant apprehension triggered by her first answer dissolved.Those are good things.
Not good. Incredible. Will it always be like this?
Forever. You are my mate. And even more than that, you are my Little girl to care for and love.
We are so lucky.Her beautiful smile lit up the shadows in the room.
Thank you for being brave and choosing me. I love you, Carina.
I love you, Daddy.
They remained by the crackling fire for a long time as their bodies and senses calmed. Finally, Marcus shifted away, breaking their intimate connection. He met Carina’s gaze with a smile.So… are you hungry now?
Famished. Do vampires eat pancakes?
Sweetheart, vampires eat anything they wish.
Chapter
Nineteen
“No way! I can’t drink that,” Carina said, horrified by the thick blood in the cup he’d set in front of her.
Everything inside her screamed for the nourishment, but her mind struggled with drinking blood. She’d throw up if she even got it close to her face. As her need grew, Carina locked her muscles to keep from grabbing it and chugging it.
Marcus slid into her mind.You’re thinking too hard. Let’s figure out what we are going to do today. Perhaps you should call in sick so we can make plans. The sun is bright today. Immediately, it will prickle at your skin like a bad sunburn when the rays touch you.He continued talking to her, holding her attention away from the thick liquid that eased her discomfort. When the cup clicked down on the table, she stared at the empty container.
“You tricked me.”
“And I’ll do it again. The first time is the hardest. How do you feel?”
