“Enough of that.”

Her golden-flecked gaze was a deep almond now.

“What else do you desire?” He couldn’t allow this to go on much longer. He thought about not giving her another choice for a moment, but he needed to do things differently with her. And he was trying his damnedest.

She held his gaze for a long moment, then said, “Kiss me.”

Aodh almost asked her to repeat it because she’d voiced one of the things he wanted. The one kiss they had shared seemed like it had happened days ago and had been all too brief.

He claimed her mouth. If any kiss could be called oral fucking, this one was it.

Driving his tongue into her mouth, he went deep.

He didn’t tease her tongue or attempt to draw it into his mouth but forced her to suck his.

The thought that the kiss was too rough and demanding never entered his mind.

Since he’d met Kai, he wanted her so intensely that he wouldn’t stop until she was a part of him and he, her.

This beautiful woman, with a curvy body and a big heart, drove him out of his mind.

For the last several hours, all he thought of was what would happen when he was back in her presence, how many ways he wanted to taste her and take her.

Now that he could feast on her mouth, he wouldn’t relent until he’d had his fill.

As the kiss went on, building in passion, a part of his brain tried to tell him she may need to breathe, but Aodh ignored it and fed her his air—just a trace amount of healing smoke.

Rarely did he eat fruit. His kind could survive on meat alone for years, but the taste of Kai was so sweet it reminded him of a fresh, ripe mango he’d picked from a tree in the old Caribbean Islands. The 30-meter trees were easy pickings for him in dragon form.

When he finally pulled away from her mouth, Kai followed him as if searching for more.

He caressed her cheek, loving the silky feel of her skin.

A haze clouded her eyes as she slowly opened them, his need reflected in her gaze. He continued to touch her, caressing around one of her ears and down her throat.

She swallowed.

Circling the dip above her collarbone, he commanded, “Part your thighs. I want to see how bad you want me.”

“Is that necessary?”

Arching a brow, he stared at her. She needed to get out of the habit of questioning him. “Yes. Now open, little flame.” He tapped one of her knees.

Trembling, she obeyed, slowly parting her legs.

He flicked away the far side of her robe to keep it from blocking his view.

Aodh saw Kai’s hands twitch as if she were prepared to drag the material back over her lower half. He growled.

She set her hands on the arms of the chair.

With his heart pounding, he lowered his gaze to the place he had longed to see.

In Kai’s position, even balanced on his longer thighs, she could only part her legs several inches.

However, it was enough for him to see shiny evidence of her need glistening on her skin.

Her heady scent created a mouth-watering cloud around him.

He inhaled and licked his lips—dragon flower. Now, so close to her, Aodh could put a name on the soft sweetness of her vanilla musk.

Cupping her thighs, he parted them a little more.

“Aodh...”

“No.” He looked up at her and saw her lowered lids. “Every part of you is lovely and desirable.”

Her eyes flicked up to his.

When he curled his hand around her and into her wetness, she panted.

He enjoyed feeling her body tremble as she glanced down and watched him.

Aodh swept his thumb right over the center of her thick, supple thigh and collected some dew on his finger. He lifted his hand between them.

She stared at his thumb; her cheeks became a cheery brown tint. The flushed look was sexy on her.

As he moved toward her, she started to lean back. He cupped the back of her head with his other hand and held her in place. Before she could voice an objection, he painted her full, kiss-swollen lips with her cream.

She gasped, and he took the opportunity to glide his thumb into her mouth and over her tongue. “While you slept, I’ve been smelling you. Your sweet musk driving me out of my mind.” In and out, his thumb went. He pressed it in, then backed off until her bottom teeth grazed the tip of his finger.

Kai whimpered. But instead of trying to pull away again, she was sucking his thumb.

Shit! Shit! His cock pressed against the fastening of his pants and Kai’s ass. He could feel the heat of her sex over him and the warmth of her mouth.

Why the fuck did I think teasing her with her cream was a good fucking idea?

All it did was cause his blood to rage higher with lust.

A popping sound came from her mouth when he pulled his thumb out. “I want to taste now.”

She leaned in to kiss him.

“Oh no, little flame. I want it straight from the source.” He gave her a quick kiss on her shocked mouth before he gripped her by the waist and set her on her feet. “Take off the robe.”

~YH~

Thankfully, Kai didn’t question him but untied the robe. She shimmied her shoulders, and the material fell to the floor.

He was amazed by her beauty. She had delicately curved shoulders and full breasts that would fill his hands perfectly.

Her waist was too narrow for her frame, evidence of the hunger she’d suffered.

His hands itched to take her ample hips and thick thighs as he drove himself into her.

Kai didn’t have the muscle definition of a female Drahk, but she still had the body form that males of his kind adored.

“Lay down,” he demanded.

Kai hustled over to the bed and climbed to the center, giving him a delectable view of her plump ass and gleaming center.

Once she was on her back, Aodh grabbed her ankles and held them in his hands as he knee-walked up the bed.

He pushed her legs until her knees bent and shifted apart.

Holding her legs wide, he stared down at her.

She sat still, her knees spread, revealing the tuft of short, ebony hair decorating the swollen labia and the cream-coated raspberry flesh of her center.

“Aodh,” Kai whispered and clenched the bedding at her hips. “You don’t have to.”

“Yes, I do.” He lowered his body and balanced on his elbows as he gripped her thighs to keep them open. “Pleasing you is my utmost need,” he declared before he lowered his head.

The soft, sweet, musky vanilla scent of dragon flower was more potent. He reveled in the aroma.

His first lick proved to him what he had believed all along—one taste of Kai would end his desire for any other.

Not that he had plans of fucking another female, but until his father, Drahks were not monogamous creatures.

They fucked often, and they fucked many.

A Mckenna kept a harem to breed multiple offspring.

It was one of the reasons there had been so many of them worldwide and now lived in the territory.

But he planned to follow the guidance of his father. Aodh never analyzed it, but now as he licked up Kai’s slit to fondle her clit, he knew he’d been waiting for his mate. Waiting for his true match instead of trying to force his dragon to accept another.

“Ahhhh...” Kai rocked her hips up and round as he stroked and circled the tight, swollen bundle of nerves.

When he drew it into his mouth, sucked and flicked the tip of his tongue over it, she tangled her fingers into his hair and spread her thighs wider.

He growled. Drunk on the taste and sound of her, he applied more oral skills to get her to completion. He wanted to watch her shatter with pleasure. He licked her up and down again before he glided his tongue along one side of her clit where he noticed she was most sensitive.

Kai alternated between moaning and calling his name, begging him to stop and don’t, don’t, don’t stop.

He smiled against her wet sex as he continued to lick her and inhale her unique scent. Releasing one of her thighs, he dragged two fingers through her cream before pressing them into her warm, tight center.

She froze for a moment and tried to arch away from him, but he held fast, persistent in licking and suckling her as he pressed his fingers further.

Aodh understood that she was apprehensive about him entering her.

He felt what humans referred to as a sort of barrier when a woman had never been with a man sexually.

It was foreign to him because drakhs had no such thing for males or females.

However, he had to admit there was a sense of joy in knowing that no other male had been with Kai in the way he would soon.

Not that a simple membrane made a difference to Aodh at all.

There hadn’t been a lack of women in his bed, and he would not have held it against Kai if she’d lain with other men.

But that understanding would not be afforded to her from here on out.

She was his.

“Easy now. I got you.” In and out, he stroked along her walls. He traveled his gaze up her body and watched her face. It went from scrunched by discomfort to pleasure again. He knew the moment Kai began to climb the heights of euphoria because her body relaxed, and she gave into his titillations.

She moaned and began to move with the rhythm of his hand.

As he buried his face in her sex again, she called his name and chanted gibberish. Soon, she was bucking and throwing her head back, and then she came undone.

He didn’t stop swirling his tongue along her pussy or fucking her with his fingers. He needed to stretch her more. If she was going to take his cock, she needed to give him more room to work in.

When her cries became whimpers, he slipped his fingers out long enough to add a third. Just like before, her tight walls constricted around him, trying to force him out.

“What...wait...Aodh.” She grabbed at one of his shoulders as if she could hold him at bay.

Twisting his wrist, he pushed his triple digits further. Moving up Kai’s body, he encouraged her, “You got this, little flame. Relax and take your pleasure.”
