Crap, he’d injured her feelings.“If something happens to either of us, the other would suffer if we were mates.It would be bad enough now, but when felines are mates, they become one.Their minds link as well as their bodies.”
“I understand.”
He sighed.
“No, Ellard.I’m not just saying that.I do understand and agree with what you’re saying.”
“True mates aren’t common on Viros, not like they used to be.Jarlath and Keira are unusual.Your friends are too, and Lynx and Shiloh…” The strangeness of his brother’s relationship still amazed him.Shiloh’s happiness shone like a star though, so he refused to refute their triad relationship as his parents did.“I want to make sure that what we’re doing is real and true and not survivor’s relief.”
“Agreed,” she said and pressed one quick kiss to the mating site at the base of his neck before moving down his body.“Ah,” she said on colliding with his cock.“You’re right about the pills and potions.”
“I told you so.”No mistaking the smugness there.
“It moved.”She sounded thrilled, and he bit back a chuckle.“The idea of me petting your cock excited you.”
His lips quivered with the strain.“I will enjoy your touch.”
“Kaya says—”
“I don’t want to hear about the blue-hair pixie when we’re together this way.If you wish to know something, ask me.”
“Please.”
“What?”
“Please ask me.”
Ellard rolled his eyes but his mouth refused to follow through, smirking instead like an actor from a bad space trope comedy.“Did you wish to continue exploring or would you like to ride me?”
“Don’t rush me.I want to do both.”And she set about her explorations, her fingernails scraping over his chest, darting tendrils of enjoyment across his skin.Innocent touches.Brazen touches.She progressed down his body, rubbing her butt against his erection.
“How long is your hair?”
“It reaches halfway down my back.It was longer but the length became a problem when I wanted to train with the others.Camryn cut it for me.”
“I’d love to see it loose.”He trembled at the thought of the silky locks sliding over his bare skin.
“When we have a chance, I want to share the sanitizer with you.”She glanced up, and Ellard caught a flash of dimples.“Jannike says—”
“No!Please, not my brother’s sex life.”
She giggled, her teasing a warm balm to his soul.After repositioning herself, she curled her fingers around his cock.She explored him thoroughly: his shaft, the sensitive head, and his rapidly hardening balls.In secs, lust simmered through him, her touch flammable and pushing at his restraint.With great effort, he remained prone, but he trembled under her attentions.Even when she moved on to massage the muscles of his thighs, his feline wriggled and pushed and urged him to take control.Wouldn’t happen.
“The thing that I’m discovering about touching is that it resembles one of those weapons with double-edges.”She glanced up.“I want you inside me.”
“I’m yours.”The words, while corny, rang with truth.This innocent slip of a woman had lured him in, and he’d followed like Jarlath’s prized cambeest trailed Keira.
“So this riding thing.Quick instructions, please.”
Amusement came quick, digging into his cheeks.If he wasn’t careful, this happy expression might become a permanent thing.He couldn’t function as a soldier with a smiley face.“Guide my cock to your pussy and push down.Take me inside you.Rise and fall.Experiment with the angle until you find one that gives you pleasure.”
“What about you?”
“I get to watch you, your breasts, and your face.I’ll enjoy every sec.”
A tad awkward, she clambered into place.Slowly, slowly, she took him inside her wet heat.“Ooh,” she whispered.“I like that.”
Another of those uncharacteristic grins flirted with his mouth.Such concentration on her face.She rose and slid down, finding her rhythm.Pleasure roared through him, both physical and visual.His eyelids grew weights, but he fought the urge to close them.Instead, he watched the bounce of her breasts, the tightness of her pink nipples.
