At last, whenI'veexplained everything,Irise from the bed.Shelooks up at me.

"Where are you going?"

"To my own room—to give you time to think,"Itell her."Idon't expect you to make such a big decision tonight—don't want you to feel pressured, baby."

But she shakes her head and puts a hand on my wrist.

"Don't go," she says in a low voice."Idon't want you to go.Iwant to try it…tonight."

My heart leaps and insideIfeel myDrakeroaring in approval.

"You mean that, baby?"Iask."BecauseIdon't want you to feel like you have to."

"I don't," she says simply."Iwantto."

“I can’t promise it will be gentle,”Icaution her.“BreedingandBondingcan get fucking intense.”

“I don’t care.”Shelifts her chin.“I’mnot afraid.”

It’s obviously a lie, butIlove her for it–love her for her courage and her commitment and the fearless way she forges ahead no matter what.

Impulsively,Ilean down and take her face in my hands.Ikiss her long and deep–letting her know what the rest of the night is going to be like.Shetastes like sweetness and light–everythingIlove about her.

Elowen kisses me back, giving as good as she’s getting.Fuck,Ilove this woman!

“Come on, baby,”Igrowl, when the kiss breaks at last.“Let’sget undressed.Ican’t wait toBondyou to me.”

ELOWEN

Goddess,Ican’t believeI’mdoing this.Ican’t believeI’mgoing to bond with bothTheronand hisDrake.I’mscared–Ihave to admit it–butI’mmore scared of leaving him.Oflosing everything we’ve built together and never seeing the manIlove again.

To stay with him–to form that mystical connection the bards sing about and that all the old legends and stories tell about,I’ddo almost anything.

Including breeding with hisDrake.

“It won’t be him at first,”Therontells me.“I’mgoing to get you ready, sweetheart.”He’sundressed and so haveI–we’re both naked in the vast, velvet–covered bed together.Fornow, he’s just holding me.

I love the feeling of being pressed to his broad, bare chest–my tight nipples rubbing against his warm skin.Thelust curse the witch put on me is gone but that doesn’t matter–my pussy is already getting wet and hot for him, andIcan feel the need building inside me.Iwant him in me–butTherondoesn’t want to rush.

“First let me get you ready,” he murmurs and starts kissing the side of my neck.“Needto get you nice and warmed up before you can take myDrake’scock in your hot little pussy, baby.”

His lips are soft and insistent, trailing down my collarbone.Hecups my breast, his thumb brushing over my nipple until it’s a hard, aching peak.Thenhis mouth closes over it, hot and wet, and he sucks deeply.

A sharp cry escapes me as sparks of pleasure shoot through me.Heswitches to the other breast, lavishing it with the same attention, tongue swirling, teeth grazing lightly.

“So perfect,” he growls against my skin.“Thesegorgeous tits were made for my mouth, baby.”

He kisses a blazing trail down my ribs, over the curve of my belly, his hands spreading my thighs as he settles between them.Thecool air of the room kisses my exposed pussy, but his breath is hotter.Helooks up at me, his silver eyes dark with promise.

“Are you ready to let me taste you, baby?Canyou take my tongue inside you again?”

“Yes,”Iwhisper, reaching down to run my hands through his hair…over his horns.“And…andIcan take yourDrake’stongue, too,”Iadd, lifting my chin.

His eyes flash.

“Such a brave little priestess,” he growls softly.“Weboth want to taste you tonight.”
