Our bodies move as one with every erotic bonding. And slowly, it gets easier to take him. A little more light dances across my skin. My high rises fast but lingers this time, burning hotter and longer until I’m certain I’m a star, shooting across the sky.
“That’s it.” Jorusk thrusts with more force, a dark mischief dancing between the flames in his eyes.
I clench hard around him, setting off an explosive euphoria that inundates my body.
Jorusk pants as he encourages my climax on with every scorching pump of his seed into me. He grunts as he bonds us to the max and binds us together like he’s desperate for the moment to never end.
His lips find my damp chest for a breathless kiss. Then he frees my hands and draws one of them to his mouth. Jorusk presses my radiant fingers to his lips.
He rests his forehead against mine. “Thank you for not running from me, for following me here, for staying with me, and for fighting your way to me even when I was behind enemy walls. You have an Inferno that burns hotter than any other I’ve ever encountered.”
I kiss his lips and smile. “Love you, too.”
He smiles shyly and wraps his body around mine, his tail flicking back and forth behind him. I hold him close, no longer afraid of the future or the war, because I know I’ve finally found the family that will stick with me to the bitter end.
27: Jorusk
Brynna laughs nervously as I strap her to my front atop the mountain where the other Draths wait. Beside us, Fieri checks the harness Cinuska has wrapped around his body.
“Are you sure about this,Cinni?” Fieri asks.
“You can trust your sexy electric ass to my wings,” Cinuska says. She winks over at me, and I’m glad she’s finally found someone to love her after so many years of rescuing and caring for all of us. “I have carried far more weight after much less sleep.”
“Sexy?” Rykarn gags beside them, his freshly healed wing stretching behind him.
Vryskas fakes a punch at Rykarn’s crotch as he passes, his wings catching fire in anticipation of the dive.
Sidius and Osiris wait near the edge beside my father and my mother. I’m not eager to leave this world to fight our enemies, but we have a role in the war now. I want to get our patrols set up near Drathis, so no one ever threatens my people again.
When Brynna and I are ready, I hug her close and run a warm hand over her growing belly. “How is the egg?”
“Fine. Hot.” She peers back at me with an eye. “Like his father.”
“You’re certain it’s a male?”
She gives me a look that says I should know how she knows.
“DIA…”
Brynna nods. “I thought I was a chatterbox. Honestly, I have missed it. My sister was like that.”
“I’m glad you two get along so well, but you have to keep me in the loop a little more.” I walk her toward the edge.
“I will. But…Jorusk…” She gasps. “I don’t know about this. I think this was a mistake!”
I lean forward and kiss her neck. “You have to learn to fly with me before I ever let you jump with your wings. Here you can fall. Space isn’t like that. This will be a good lesson, but I want you to just enjoy the view today.”
“Enjoyit?” she screeches. Her hands reach back and claw at my thighs. Fire pulses fast in her veins now.
“I will lead, so you learn our ritual path,” my father says. “Mishana…”
He takes my mother’s hand, lifts his wings, lights them up, and she does the same. Then they simply tip forward and fall off the cliff.
Brynna makes a strangled squeak.
“After you,Prince Traosis,” Fieri says, his voice tight. I’m certain he’s slipped into his old role of serving a royal in order to cope.
I grab Brynna. “Deep breath.”
