Chapter Thirteen

Elena

H e drove me mad.

When I saw him dancing on a bar, moving his hips and straddling the pole, I wanted nothing more than to be that pole . I wanted him to dance around me, lick the sweat off my body. I wanted to trail my finger down every crevice of his body while he made me the center of his world.

Was I crazy?

Jealousy rose its ugly head as I watched the other women at the bar stuff money into his tight black jeans. He was mine, he wanted me, right?

But you pushed him away. Several times.

Not anymore. Not the way my body was responding. I could feel his presence, like he was standing beside me, even from across the room. I wanted him.

After much pushing and insisting from Abuela that I go have some fun and not worry about Luis, I put on my only nice dress, and Abuela rushed me out the door. Even Luis looked excited when he waved Beretta and me off.

I remembered to take my medication. Luckily, my pain had gone down to a dull ache.

The excitement must have made my body forget I was in pain this afternoon.

When I rushed with Beretta to the second floor of the bar, seeing Anaki glistening under the cheap strobing lights from the dance floor, my pain was long gone.

It was like I could feel him, as if he was right next to me the entire time.

I didn’t even pay attention to my sister and Locke, and the debauchery they were doing in front of the entire bar. She was a big girl and could handle herself. Once they finished and left to have their good times, it was my turn. It had been too long since I had a man want me the way Anaki did.

Not just wanted me, but cared about my family, too.

I didn’t want to give in so easily, so when I stood in front of him, I had planned to give him a hard time, but what a pointless endeavor that was.

I wanted him and not just for the night, and maybe that’s why I was fighting so hard.

My body and my heart were falling for him so hard and fast, and I couldn’t explain why.

It was the softness in his eyes, the tender way he looked at me. I wanted to care for him the way he did for me when we first met. I was lost, but he found me. Now it was my turn to take care of him.

“Ah, fuck it!”

I wrapped my arms around him, and I was completely done. D-O-N-E. I claimed him and I would not let him go.

My fingers dove into his hair, and I pulled him into a searing kiss.

His lips were warm and eager against mine, and I felt a surge of electricity shoot through me as our bodies pressed together. In that moment, everything else faded away. It was just him and me, lost in the whirlwind of heat.

I pressed my body closer to his until he finally wrapped his arms around me and pulled my hips closer to his so I could feel his large erection dig into my stomach.

Dios Mio, he was large. I didn’t know which way his dick was facing, up or down but I knew I wanted it right then and there.

I parted my mouth and traced my tongue across his lips. He whimpered, and that spurred me on to pull his hair.

He deepened the kiss, his tongue sweeping into my mouth and tangling with mine. The taste of him made my head spin, and I felt my knees weaken.

As he held me tightly, his hands roaming all over my body, I melted into him.

He led me to a private corner, where the passion between us intensified.

He lifted me off the ground and pressed me against the wall, our bodies undulating in a frenzy of need.

My nails scratched the bare muscles of his back, feeling the heat radiating from his skin.

“Shit,” he whispered and pressed his cock against me while one of his hands dove into my hair.

I reached down and gripped his erection through his pants, marveling at its size and girth. As I pressed against it, he groaned into my mouth, his hand tightening in my hair as his lips devoured mine.

I didn’t know where his cock began and ended. It was everywhere. I felt around the front of his pants. He groaned and grabbed my wrist. He broke the kiss and laid his forehead on mine. “Don’t want to go too fast yet.”

I groaned. “Why not? If you edge me, I will not be a happy girl.”

He hummed thoughtfully. His kisses traced down the side of my neck and into the hollow of my throat. “Trust me, you do not want to go down there yet, but I can certainly make you come.”

He turned me around, my dress flaring out around me. The music was blaring, the beat rose, and I was highly aware that anyone could walk around the corner.

“I want you to let loose, love. It’s just me and you. No one would dare come back here.” He whispered huskily in my ear. “I won’t let them.”

We swayed to the music, my ass grinding against his crotch.

While his hot breath fanned my neck, his hand trailed up my thigh and moved the free-flowing dress to the side.

He roamed closer to my underwear and cupped my mound.

He hummed appreciatively. “I could smell you when you first walked into the club.” He nuzzled my ear. “Why have you fought me so much?”

I panted. My body swayed with his as we danced. I raised my arm over my head, my fingers threaded through his hair. “Trying to save you the trouble. I’m not worth it.”

Anaki clicked his tongue. His warm hand rubbed my damp underwear.

“Oh, Mama, you are definitely worth the trouble.” He bit down on my ear and moved my underwear to the side.

My body instantly melted when I felt two hot fingers rub across my clit.

“Fuck you are wet, been wet for a while, did you like me dancing for you?”

I moaned and leaned my head back on his shoulder. “Was it for me, or those women out there?” I gritted my teeth.

Anaki huffed. “That was all for you. Once we are in private, I can really show you what me and my dragon can do. I’ve got a special one that involves a lot of touching.”

He shoved two fingers inside me. There was no warming up with just one. He stuck them both inside with eagerness. I cried out, and his hand went over my mouth.

“Now, now, can't have my brothers hearing those cries. Those are for me. My dragon and I can get very jealous, and we can’t have him causing a ruckus.”

Anaki smirked, his eyes darkening with desire. "You don’t have any idea how much I want to take you right here and now." His fingers sped up, and I felt my orgasm building, an electric charge running through my entire body. "But we have all night, and I intend to make it one you'll never forget."

Good, I had hoped for a good dicking.

“More,” I demanded. I wasn’t at the point of begging, I wanted it and if he even dared tried to pull away, I would grab his wrist and fuck myself with his fingers.

His head landed on my shoulder, took in a large breath of my scent, and curled his fingers to rub on my G-spot.

Holy fuck!

“Tight and wet, I’m not sure if you can take it all,” he mumbled.

My head leaned back, as his sharp teeth grazed across my neck.

I was in utter bliss, falling into the dark ocean of desire.

I had no control over my body, as waves of pleasure crashed over me, pulling me under.

My mind fogged while I tugged on the back of his hair.

All I could focus on was the feeling of his fingers inside of me, each movement causing a new wave of pleasure to crash through me.

Anaki's lips trailed down my neck, leaving a trail of fire in their wake. He whispered something in a language I didn't recognize, but the words were music to my ears. His breath was hot against my skin, and I could feel his desire growing with every passing moment.

He pulled his fingers from my body and brought them to his nose. My stomach lurched with embarrassment, but he smiled at me in reassurance. “This scent will have to do.” He rubbed it on one side of his neck, and I saw my arousal glisten there.

“Hold still.” His voice was deep and gravely, not like the tenor, playful voice he usually carried. Anaki leaned forward and rubbed his cheek against mine. “No male will touch you, not after this.”

I felt warmth cover my muscles. After a good orgasm, I would usually feel tightness in my bones and muscles, and my body would ache because of the tension I created. I knew I would hurt after, but there was none to be found. I never hurt when he was near.

“You’re mine, you’re stuck with me.” Anaki’s eyes flickered back and forth from dragon to human several times. Small slits appeared and my pussy fluttered.

A dragon. I let a dragon finger me in the hallway.

“What did you just do?” I snapped back to reality.

Anaki grabbed my hand and pulled me further back into the shadows. He took one last look at the bar behind us and pulled me closer to his body.

“My dragon marked you and, well, used your slick to mark us.” He smirked and pulled me further into the dark.

My eyes bulged as I processed what he said, and he laughed as we got closer to the back. An exit illuminated, and he pushed on the door to the alley outside.

“Where are we going?”

Anaki continued to lead me around the corner, where bikes were lined up in a gravel parking space. It was an overflow of bikes, and I noticed some bikes still had their keys in the ignition, which astonished me.

“Come here. As much as I’d like to have you on the back of my bike, we can’t take it where we are going.”

He grabbed my wrist and pulled me forward to some trucks and SUVs in the lot. He opened the passenger door to the truck, which, of course, was unlocked and pulled me around, pinning me to the car. “You ready for this?”

“Do I have a choice?” I replied playfully.

“Always, with me anyway.” He cleared his throat. “If my dragon comes out, I don’t know what he’ll do. He’s kind of obsessed with you.”

I jutted out my chin. “And what about you? Do you want me? Kid, chronic illness, baggage and all? I’m a lot to handle, and I can’t take the heartbreak. If you don’t think you can do this,” I waved my hand up and down my body, “I suggest we break it off now, or I’ll break your face.”

His smile was contagious because I began smiling, too. “I won over Abuela and Luis. Don’t think I did that just for a one-night stand, Elena.”

I crossed my arms. “We’ll see.”

Anaki pulled me in by the hips and placed a sweet kiss on my lips.

Just then, we heard the roar of an engine and tires skidding on the road. We both paused and looked around, unable to see anything with the back of the bar blocking our view.

Anaki held me to his body as if to protect me from the sounds. I stared up at him, his jaw tensed, his ears took shape into something pointed, light blue, and topped with silver. Tiny scales traveled up the side of his neck for a brief moment until they were gone.

Holy shit!

His nose flared. “Your sister. She just left. Locke isn’t happy about it.”

My shoulders dropped. “Your president is trying to woo my sister while she is trying to hunt him... I knew that wouldn’t go well.”

“He’s a good man, Elena… he’s done so much—”

“I’m sure he is.” I patted his shoulder. “While your methods are unconventional, she’s briefly told me about the town. She likes the bar and the people in it. After seeing it for myself, I believe you.”

Anaki’s eyes brightened.

“And what about me? You believe in me?”

I rolled my eyes. “I don’t know, depends on what you got planned for the rest of the night.”

Anaki bit his lip and picked me up behind my legs, forcing me to wrap them around his waist, and pinned me to the car. “Is that so?”

I nodded.

“Then, I guess we better get a move on. I’m going to need the rest of the night to prove my worth.”
