I waited so many lifetimes for this
Raene
“ G oddess.”
Oh shit—they’re converting me. I’m starting to talk like everyone here.
He’s walking towards me. Fully naked like the day the Goddesses carved him and brought him to life. Just standing in this water with the moonlight, the glow dancing across tanned skin, he looks unreal. His eyes are bright, burning with need, and I can feel it pulling me in.
I inch back to where I need to start treading water until he crooks a finger at me, saying, “ Come here .” I'm practically prancing through the water to reach him.
He lifts me, wrapping my thighs around him, and kisses me deeply. His fingers dig in my skin hard enough to leave bruises, and I fucking love it. I want to wake up tomorrow with memories of him. Inside and out .
He settles me so I’m waist-deep in the water. The warmth of his body presses against mine. Even in the cool air, I feel amazing.
“Shirt off,” he whispers on my lips.
I immediately raise my arms. Our noses are touching, he’s holding me with one hand and using the other to tug off my shirt, tossing it into the water.
My hands move to their own accord, caressing his face, his fingers digging into my ass as he glides me up and down his length, the fabric of my underwear moves against my sensitive clit.
“Soooo good,” my voice hitches as I move with him.
“You don’t need these,” he groans, tearing the lacy fabric underwater off of me. Now there is nothing between us. Only the warm, clear waters are a turquoise hue from the blue rock below us.
“You’re a fucking goddess.” His eyes roam across my face, memorizing all of it, his thumb caressing my cheek as he holds my face in his hands, pulling my face to his. My mouth opens to his, his tongue darting in, finding mine as he sucks and nibbles on my lips.
He trails a kiss on my jaw, then his warm mouth moves lower to my throat. My pulse is erratic as his fangs scrape against my skin. Throw in massaging my tits for a side-piece, and fuck, I don’t know how much wetter I can get.
Releasing a low sigh, my head falls back, eyes flutter closed as I surrender myself to every sensation. I hear the water fall. I hear his greedy kisses. I feel him sucking on each of my nipples and giving the girls the attention they so desperately need.
Running my fingers through his hair, I tighten my hold as he releases a growl. I cross my ankles tighter around his waist, rolling my hips up and down against him, seeking friction .
I whimper, and he rests his forehead against mine. “Shit.” He places a kiss on the corner of my mouth.
He reaches down between us, leans me back slightly, and his other arm easily supports my weight. Lining himself up with my entrance, he looks at me, panting. I'm breathless, as I slowly nod my head, starting to bite on my lower lip as he begins to push in, causing both of us to gasp.
Inch by inch, he pushes into me, allowing me to adjust to his delicious size as I stretch around him, and damn, he feels so good it's insane.
“Fuck, Raene…” he moans, his voice is rough, strained. “I waited so many lifetimes for this.”
My heart skips.
He gives one final thrust, pushing himself to the hilt.
I cry out, my nails dig into his shoulders as I hold onto him.
He brings me closer to him, one hand on my hip and one gripping my ass as he slowly begins to move, thrusting into me at a torturously slow pace.
Not being able to release the needy sound that comes out, a soft mewl, I move my hips to match him.
“Ash…Ash…” I chant softly like a prayer as he holds me close, filling me with deep strokes, all while I’m riding against him.
“Fuck yes…” he whispers, his voice is low and rough against my lips as he kisses me. How he maintains kissing me, like he’s worshiping me and ruining me so I completely fall apart, I can’t wrap my head around.
His tongue brushes against mine, his fangs nibble on my lower lip. His kisses, I can feel the pressure coiling tighter and tighter .
“Don’t stop,” I sob out, barely able to breathe out the words. “God, Ash…”
It feels so good, it’s perfect.
I’m bouncing on him, I can feel my core pulsing around him, and his thrusts quicken.
“You’re taking it so well, baby.”
“Ash.” My back arches, and I moan into the air, feeling waves of pleasure running through me as I come around him.
“You look so sexy coming apart on my dick like that, but I’m not finished.”
His thrusts become quicker. The water ripples violently around us. I can feel another orgasm building, and I don’t know if I can take it. It’s too much pleasure all at once.
“Ash,” I gasp out, my voice breaking, small cries escaping into the nighttime air.
“Yeah…that’s it,” he murmurs, his lips brushing against my ear, voice drenched with heat and desire.
“Ride my cock, baby,” he groans.
“Shit, yes…” he hisses, sucking in a quick breath. “Like that. Cum on me again.” Our bodies are moving in a primal rhythm, a raw, ever-consuming dance of need.
“Fuck,” he says.
“Raene… ” His words leave him with a guttural groan, his control snapping. One hand grabs the back of my neck, the other gripping my hip hard enough to bruise as he pounds into me, and I don’t care. Each deep thrust claims me.
“That’s it, baby,” I pant. “I want to feel you. ”
“Shit!” His whole body tenses, a shudder running through him, and with one final thrust, he falls apart.
I feel him pulse inside me as he comes. Pulling my neck to the side, he sinks his fangs into me.
The spot where he will give me kisses and drag his fangs lightly.
l feel a bolt of pleasure shooting through my core.
“Ash!” I cry out, my body convulsing, his moans muffled against my neck. He’s sucking and kissing that tender spot as I ride out the aftershock.
The sensation is euphoric. I take slow breaths, holding on to him, loving how undone he is. How fucking ruined I am. I stroke his beautiful red hair, still squeezing myself around him to draw every last drop.
“Raene…” he groans once more, his voice a hoarse whisper. Knowing he’s coming apart like this from me makes me want him all over again.
He slows his breathing as I kiss the lining of his jaw, his arms wrapped around me.
“Three orgasms, Ash, and the biting…” I give him a coy smile.
“Kinky, I like it.” It was unexpected, but the ebb and flow of the quick pain wrapping around the pleasure felt amazing. I didn't care about the bite because I felt like what just happened was an out-of-body experience. “You set the bar really high.”
He chuckles, and I feel his breath on my neck. It’s rough and sounds so sexy. The post sex laugh.
“Oh, we’re not done yet.” He grins.
I can’t help the goofy grin that spreads across my face. My body is spent, every muscle is trembling, but the thought of feeling this again, of having my bones melt underneath him, makes my pulse spike.
“Oh, so you love to go above and beyond, huh? An overachiever?” I tease, my voice still breathless.
He gently nips my lower lip. “Only when it comes to you, Goddess.”
I roll my eyes, but my smile gives me away. “I’ll make sure to give you a thank you in the Acknowledgements section of my next book.
“Ouch,” he says. “J-just a thank you?”
His hands move under my ass again, and God, his cock stirs inside of me. I gasp, my body clenching around him.
How is he hard this damn quickly? Is this normal for fae males or just him ?
“No full chapter or dedication?” He raises a brow in question.
I laugh, my arms around his neck as my fingertips dance along his back, as heat curls in my lower belly again. “What is it you want…Ash?”
“We could stay here in this water.” He grips my ass and slides me up and down his length, drawing a low moan from me, “and see how many more thank-yous I can earn for that Acknowledgements section of yours.”
I’m already biting back a smile. That line shouldn’t make my heart flutter like that, but it does. I rock gently; his breath turns shaky.
“More thank-yous? You’re just that good, you think?
His grin turns sinful. “Oh, I know I am. ”
And then he’s kissing me again. Deep, slow, and so fucking filthy, like he’s trying to prove me wrong before I can think twice. My whole body ignites, responding to him as we move together, and I realize I don’t want this—this moment—to end.
