“Twenty-five.”
Her creamy skin was starting to flush as I continued my ministrations.
“Forty-six.”
Her knuckles had turned white from fisting the sheets.
“Fifty-three.”
She was completely flushed now. Her legs were trembling and her back was arched.
“Fifty-five.”
I switched from licking her clit to sucking, and she gasped.
“Come for me, my mate. Flood my tongue with your sweet essence.”
I returned to her cunt and continued sucking her clit and pumping my finger into her over and over again.
“Fifty-nine.”
I reached up and pinched her nipple and with a guttural cry, she came undone.
When she was done panting for air, she gave me a wide smile. “Sixty.”
We quickly dressed and just as we were about to walk outside, I noticed Taylor was wearing the necklace I’d given her. It wasn’t in her pocket anymore. It was around her neck.
I stopped and traced the pendents with my fingers. “You’re wearing the necklace.”
“Yep,” she beamed up at me. “I’ve always liked it. It means a lot to me, which is why it didn’t feel right wearing it when we weren’t truly mated, but I’m happy to wear it now.”
She put her hand over mine and asked, “Why the sun and the moon?”
“Because even before we luminesced, you were a bright light shining into my soul. The world could fall into darkness, but as long as I had you, my life would be full of light.”
“Oh Brexl, that’s beautiful.” Taylor hugged me and buried her face in my chest. I embraced her in return and ached to pick her up and carry her over my shoulder back to our furs, but I didn’t want her to miss this special dinner.
We walked outside hand-in-hand, to find one table had been left open for us.
As we walked, Taylor kept looking down like she was embarrassed, and I didn’t know why.
“Is the ground interesting tonight?” I asked, hoping to bring a smile to her face.
It worked. She pulled me down and whispered in my ear, “We aren’t fooling anyone.”
“I don’t understand. We aren’t pretending anymore.”
“No, not that. I mean, we were the last ones out of our cave, we look flushed, and probably smell like sex. Everyone knows what we were just doing.”
“Is this a problem?” I asked as we sat down. I certainly didn’t have an issue with the dekes knowing I’d just finished claiming my mate.
“It’s embarrassing. Well, at least it is for a human.”
“Do you regret what we did?”
“Well, no.” Taylor’s cheeks turned a soft pink.
“Will you be mad if I keep you in the furs again until the very last second?”
