And absolutely no desire to.
A flick of my wrist had his shirt in tatters. I went to repeat the action with his trousers but remembered that mine would never fit him.
I stripped those off carefully, along with his underwear, groaning at the sight of his cock already hard. “This for me, sweetheart?”
“Yes.” His hands scrabbled at the sheets as I ran my tongue up the side of it. “Please tell me you have lube. We can’t use spit for what I’ve got in mind.”
I kissed my way up his torso until I was hovering over his face. “And what do you have in mind, sweetheart?”
“Hmm.” His tongue wet his lips. “I think I need to test out whether you’re actually more fun to ride than my dildo.”
Fuck. I had to reach down and grab my cock in a stranglehold. Just the thought of what Reid was suggesting…“You know what? I think you do.”
He nodded. “For science.”
“Who are we to stand in the way of advancement?”
The musical sound of his laughter washed over me. “Fuck, I like you.”
I paused, waiting for him to freak out. To take it back.To remember that he didn’t want to like me. That me being a shifter was an insurmountable obstacle.
But the flush in his cheeks wasn’t from regret. There was no containing the grin that spread over my face as my wolf yipped with excitement. “Good. I like ye too, Reid.”
My lips found his and we lost another few minutes in kisses. They started sweet, but before long we were rutting together desperately.
Not wanting this to be over before it had even started, I forced myself to break away. “Lube.”
Reid nodded rapidly, his slick, swollen lips so fucking tempting. “Lube.”
I rummaged in my bedside table drawer, pulling it out. I spotted several small foil packets and hesitated. “Condom too?”
His nose wrinkled. “Fuck no. We don’t need them, right?”
“No, but if it’d make you more comfortable…”
He responded by leaning over and shoving the drawer shut. “Comfortable is definitely not what we’re going for here.”
“It’s not?”
“Fuck no.” He spread his legs wide as I settled between them. “Passionate. Hot. Transcendent. Mind-blowing. That’s more of the vibe.”
I snorted as I uncapped the lube and slicked up my fingers. “No pressure, then.”
Reid winked, his hands going behind his head. “I’m sure yer up to the challenge.”
My wolf chuffed. Reid’s sassy confidence was absolutely doing it for both of us. “If I disappoint, we can always go again.”
“Oh, we’ll have to regardless,” Reid said, a moanslipping free as I stroked his hole. “Even if it’s epic. We’ll have to make sure it’s not a one-off.”
All the stress of the past few months melted away as the cloak of darkness lifted. Reid was here. In my bed. Completely willing and trusting me to take care of him.Talking as if this was something we’d be repeating in the future.
Emotion swelled in me, so vast I had to duck my head quickly as tears burned behind my eyes.
Reid was mine.
My mate.
The one I’d share the same happiness with that I’d grown up witnessing.
