A snort escaped him, making her smile.

“I don’t know about that.” He rested a knee on the mattress, bowed her body backward over his arm, and glided his lips alongside the healing nodes.

Shadow clutched his thick biceps as he scraped his teeth over the swell of her breasts then licked away the slight pain, causing a tingling sensation to sweep straight to her core. He flicked her nipple with his tongue, and she grew wetter, desire hiking. His scorching stare met hers, and she swallowed. Her feelings for him overwhelming her. She yearned for him to claim her as his. Forever.

But no matter how foolish the thought or what the sensual part of her demanded, her life wasn’t her own. She’d enjoy this time, be with him for as long as she could—

“Don’t.” His fiery stare held hers, the heat making her tummy coil tighter with need. “Get out of your head. Feel. It’s just you and me here.”

He lowered his head, one callused palm gently squeezing her breast. His warm mouth covered her nipple and he suckled, his tongue piercing dragging over her nub, the added stimulation awakening every nerve-ending in her body.

God, she bit her lip and arched into him, her fingers digging into his buzzed hair. He released her nipple to start his sensual onslaught on her other breast. His hand slid between her thighs, and he slipped a finger between her folds. She shuddered, growing wetter as he circled her point of pleasure. A moan escaped her.

Bowed backward as she was, he had absolute command over her body, and all she could do was shut her eyes and hold on. Feel. His towel-covered thigh moved between hers, brushing her skin like a caress, sending soft tingles along her skin. As he tugged on her nipple with his teeth, he pushed a finger into her aching core, then added another. Her insides tightened as he worked her with his hand and his tongue.

“Nik…” she whimpered, body tensing, coiled like a spring.

“Say it,” he whispered, giving her nipple another tug. “Say you want me.”

“God, I do. Want you,” she panted.More than my next breath. “I need you—”

And in that incredibly fast way of his, he shifted to lie back across the bed, pulling her astride him.

Before she could settle over his groin, he moved her up, and she curled over his face, grabbing the covers behind his head. Before her mind connected, his warm mouth settled on her core, his fingers sliding down her bottom and between her legs to push back inside her again. As his tongue slipped between her folds and tormented her achy clit with sweeping strokes and light flicks while he worked her core with first one finger, then two.

“Nik,pleeeease…” A keening moan escaped her. So close.

His whiskered chin teased her sensitive clit, and she gasped, wanting more of the friction. “You taste incredible,” he rumbled against her sensitive flesh, the vibration amping her need. “I could do this for hours.”

He was going to kill her. “I don’t think I could stand it.”

“Then tell me what you want.”

“Make me come.”

“With pleasure, my littlemachitís.” He ran his tongue over her folds, then sucked her aching nub into his mouth and tugged, the drag of his piercing adding a deeper friction. And as he pumped his fingers into her, he bit down hard.

“Niiiiik!” she cried out, her orgasm crashing through her in a roaring wave, sending her flying over the edge…

Breathing hard, she collapsed on Nik’s face, her own pressed into the covers.

He stroked her backside then licked her sensitive clit. Squealing, she scrambled off him. He pulled her down, and she flopped beside him on the bed.

He shifted and rested on his elbow, his gaze sweeping over her hot face. A breathtaking smile curved his sensual mouth, bringing a single dimple to life.

Nik never truly smiled.

She’d seen his amusement, or slight twitches of his lips, but never this. She touched his face. “I love your dimple.” Her finger traced the dent in his cheek. “It’s the first time I’ve seen you genuinely smile.”

“I had nothing to smile about before you.” He stroked her hips with one big palm, then settled it on her tummy. “They are all because of you.”

She swallowed, her feelings for him swelling and overflowing like a flood.

Nik sat up and drew the towel off, tossing it aside.

She shifted to sit, too. Then her mouth dropped open, her gaze fixed on his groin. Shit. He had a barbell piercing just beneath the crown. Why was she surprised? He was the epitome of big, bad, and dangerous, and inked up to his neck. He had a stud on his tongue and two more on his nipples, but crap… She bit her lip, warily eyeing his massive, pierced erection.

“Are you just gonna stare at it?”
