Sliding home, Alessandro felt every single other thing besides the woman underneath him melt from his mind.

He seldom left her mouth as he rocked into her, hands exploring her curves, the dip of her back into the slope of her ass. His thumb worked her clit as he filled her. Each hit elicited a soft gasp from their kiss. He pulled back as he opened her wider and wider. The flexibility of the minx was pure seduction.

Color flushed her cheeks, the bridge of her button nose and her kiss-swollen lips. Her eyes glazed with lust, and he pulled all the way out before he slammed back into her. His hand massaged the back of her knee, and he felt her tighten around him at the action. He smirked, and she threw a smirk of her own back athim as she bore her weight on her forearms and her hips began rolling, making the sinking into her that much more powerful.

The movement pronounced her breasts.

Intrigued, he thrusted and watched her breasts bounce in perfect rhythm. Glowing lavender eyes watched him as her tail curled in between them and swiped against her clit as if saying she could bring herself to pleasure better than he could.

He bit the air with his annoyance and reached down to grab the extra appendage. Warmth radiated under his fingers, and she let out an inhuman sound that reminded him of a hissing snake.

Was that good or bad? He cocked his head to the side as he stroked the tail with a firm grip and smirked when he realized it was beyond good. It was something she wasn’t used to. Her increased heat and slickness sealed the deal.

He slid a hand around to support her lower back as he rocked into her and worked her tail at the same time. Her mewls of pleasure had never been so breathless. They made his cock ache with its desire for release, but he was determined to get her there first. He tightened his grip on her tail as if it was his shaft. She let out a strangled sob and her legs were so tight around him that he could no longer move.

“Feels good, doesn't it?” He growled into her ear as her walls pulsed around him. “You hate it when my cock leaves you, don't you, little elf?”

Her nails slid under his shirt leaving trails of pain behind. She didn't answer, but her hips rolled around him barely letting him out before pulling him back in with incredible pressure. He managed to squeeze a hand between their bodies, finding her clit with practiced ease.

“That’s right, grind your sweet pussy all over me. Come for me, Rowan.”

Her mouth found purchase where his neck met his shoulders and she bit. His dragon roared his release.

The fucking little cheat.

She didn’t even give him a chance to catch his breath as she toppled him back onto the collection of her pillows and began riding him, keeping his pace, but lost in her pleasure.

Her eyes were closed as she sought her own release, and he was breathless as her hips began rotating around him. Her moans shook the glass of her windows, and he saw in that moment the wild woman that Rowan truly was. He knew she could feel him growing larger inside her until her breathing came out short and he thought he heard a prayer of thanks being sent to the gods before he grabbed her hips and railed into her from below.

“I am the only god you fucking pray to.” He roared.

She leaned forward to catch herself on his shoulders, wings enclosing them in a world where it was only the two of them. Her eyes were glowing so bright he was sure he would see stars if he closed his own, but he didn’t dare look away because in the depths of them was something he hadn’t expected, but was more than a little intrigued by.

She looked at him as if she’d been waiting her whole existence for him. She was mapping every detail of his face, her lips moving as if she was counting each of his eyelashes, committing him to the deepest memory bank she possessed. The expanse of what lay in her eyes made him finally see what his dragon desired. The long awaited resonance between beast and man shook him to the core.

He bared his teeth as he realized what he was giving up by walking away from her. No one had ever wanted him like she did. Even afraid of the commitment of the mark, her heart was shattering into pieces with his choice.

She needed time.

Time he could not give because his dragon and his sane side were now of the same mind.

He pumped in and out of her at the speed of a machine and, just like that, she closed the gates to whatever had encouraged her to bear herself to him. And she was screaming yes again, and he slammed deeper and harder into her. He felt her climax running down his thighs, mixed with his own, and the thought got him so turned on that he felt his fangs growing in his mouth.

She wasn’t ready. That knowledge was the only thing allowing him to keep his genuine desires from becoming a reality. To keep from marking her, he had to get her sweet, open neck away from him, but he refused to stop fucking her.

He shifted her, so that she was face down, ass up, and he entered her from behind. The arch of her back and the round curve of her ass motivated him to smack it and his handprint glowed red on her fair skin.

She hissed her sound of approval. He noticed as he slammed in and out a small line of three beauty marks on her hip and he traced them with his fingers, lulling her into a false sense of security before he smacked her again.

“Fuck yes.” She was breathless, and he was too. But they weren’t there yet. He reached over to grab her shoulders to steady her, and then he pulled her down as he slammed forward.

It only took three more strokes, and they were both roaring their releases.

With one swift motion, he turned her to face him again. Her chest was red from the force, her eyes had spilled tears from their exertion and she looked so satisfied it made him cum again.

His fangs throbbed in his mouth and he leaned down to give in to the roaring demands of his dragon. He might have been able to keep him at bay if he had never seen that vulnerability in her gaze, the softness he hadn’t expected, but he had and there was no way of unseeing it now.

She seemed to register what was happening. With her breathing ragged, she shook her head.
