A ragged gasp echoed in the small bathroom. Dravka’s own eyes shut briefly, a shudder racking his body.
When his eyes opened again, those twin opals were onfire. “Vauk,your taste, Val.”
Her lips parted, suddenly worried. “Is…is it bad?”
A strained laugh came next.
“I’ll never get enough of it,” he said. His voice sounded different. Deeper. Rougher. Darker. “I’ll need thisevery nightto be satisfied.”
“Oh,” she whispered, her fears assuaged. Then a strangled groan tore from her as he lowered his head again, this timesucking.
Wet, obscene, delicious sounds echoed in her ears, mingling with her ragged gasps and desperate moans.
“Oh god,” she whispered, her hands coming to the back of his smooth head, holding him there, fearing he’d leave. Then her hands trailed to his jaw, feeling the way it flexed as he ate her out. Feeling it move as he laved and licked her clit. Feeling his cheeks hollow ever so slightly as he sucked. “Dravka!”
And his eyes never left her. He watched everything from between her thighs, those eyes gleaming with need and arousal. No, she needed to touch him tonight too. Sheneededto.
When she felt him dip his head slightly, a new sensation bombarded her as he snaked his tongue up her tight sex. She felt the very tip smooth and flick against her inner walls, wiggling to get deeper.
Dravka groaned when he felt her clench down.
“Come on my tongue,mellkia,” he rasped before delving back inside.
Valerie watched him in a daze, her lips parted, her legs tightening in his grip.
He was watching her and she sensed just how much helovedto watch her. Like this. At his mercy with his head buried between her thighs, doing naughty things to her with his tongue and those eyes.
Dravka didn’t even need to touch her clit because she was coming around his tongue a moment later, the orgasm taking her by surprise. Her brows drew together, her abdomen tightening, as she exploded around him, her body breaking down into millions and millions of pieces. Shivers raced up her spine. Through it all, she still felt that hot, seeking, greedy tongue, lapping up everything she gave him.
When it was finished, she came down from that high, panting and gasping and flushed. She stared down at him in surprise. When he pulled back, he flashed her a feral-looking grin and then rose, prowling up her body, pressing her back against the mirror.
And when he kissed her? Hedevouredher.
Tasting herself on his tongue, Val felt her belly begin to heat all over again.
“Now, let’s get you cleaned up,” he growled against her lips, picking her up from the counter in one swift movement, his palms clasped in a possessive grip on her ass.
Then he moved towards the bath.
Chapter Twenty
Dravka didn’t think he’d ever been more aroused in his life and needing to mate.
Butvauk…that was what Valerie did to him. Even when he was in a Rut, even when he dreamed about her, or thought about her when he wrapped a fist around his aching cock, it had never felt likethis.
This desperate need, this pinching almost punishing desire. Because he knew he couldn’t have her the way he wanted. Not yet, at least.
He wanted to wait. Though Dravka had been a whore for a good portion of his life, in terms of sex with a mate, Keriv’is held it in the highest regard. When Valerie and he joined together for the first time, when he released histeeladeep inside her for the first time—a sacred, intense experience with a chosen mate—it wouldn’t be on Everton.
Not when there was a glimmering future in front of them. Sodamn closehe could see it.
They would wait.
Until then, however, Dravka would do everything else he possibly could to her body without that last final act.
Valerie was clinging to him so sweetly when he finally lowered them into the hot bath. Humans liked the water a little cooler than Keriv’i preferred and Valerie sighed when he settled her between his thighs, her back to his front.
Only she wiggled around, making him groan, seemingly unhappy with the fact that she couldn’t see him.
