When he pulled away, she was breathless.
He asked, “You want electricity?”
Jade glanced around the room, finding the low fire and the few candles he’d left burning for her a seductive enhancement to the large suite. Her gaze returned to him and she said, “I guess not.” She considered what improvements might come with the advancement, however, and added, “Maybe someday though.”
He kissed her again, and electricity created by sexual chemistry was the only thing on her mind. One of his hands shifted from her waist and eased over the sheet that held her captive as it twined around her body. He palmed her breast through the thick material and squeezed it gently. She moaned and he responded, his kiss turning hot and possessive.
Jade wove her fingers through his dark hair and reveled in how luxurious it felt against her skin. When his mouth left hers, it trailed over her jaw and down her throat. Her nipples puckered as they brushed against the sensuous sheets, and her pussy ached for him. But a lascivious thought tickled the back of her brain and she gave him a push so he rolled onto his back. She had to work her way out of her position and the entangled linen, and then she reached for her robe at the foot of the bed.
Darien groaned. “Bad timing this morning?” He obviously thought she meant to derail their interlude by dressing. “We were at the cottage for five days straight recently. I thought you were back to the good beads.”
They’d made a change to their scheduled bed-hopping in order to accommodate her period, since she didn’t want to torture the vampires in the castle. While she and Darien mostly stuck to the Standard Method of planning, sometimes he’d get carried away and didn’t give a damn whether she was ovulating or not. He’d withdraw from her before he came, but that didn’t offer any guarantees. And lately, he’d been hinting at starting a family.
But birth control was not on her mind at the moment. “We’re in a happy place with the beads,” she told him. “I’m just in the mood for
something different.” Not that he didn’t change up the lovemaking on a regular basis. Every time with Darien was more exciting than the last, which led to her feeling adventurous.
She yanked the long, satin sash from her robe and turned back to him, no doubt a sparkle in her eyes. “It’s my turn to tie you up.”
He smirked. “Kings don’t succumb to bondage and dominant females.”
Crawling toward him, she said, “They do when their soon-to-be-queen wants them to.”
He grabbed her by the biceps and pulled her down on top of him. “You make me so damn hard,” he all but growled between clenched teeth.
She grinned. “Then we’re off to a very good start this morning.”
Her lips grazed his and then she wiggled out of his clutches. She brought his wrists together and secured them with one end of the sash, and tied the other to the headboard, as he’d done to her the first time they’d made love.
Shoving the sheets away from his mammoth body, she admired every inch of him.
She licked her lips. “You are a masterpiece.”
Leaning over him, she left feathery kisses on his chest and then flicked her tongue over a pebbled nipple. His huge biceps flexed and he let out a low groan.
“You really think this flimsy tie is going to restrain me?” he asked.
“No,” she said as her lips skimmed over his smooth flesh. “The fact I want to enjoy your body and drive you wild will keep you from ripping that tie in two.”
“This is what I get for wanting to give you your heart’s desire.”
She ran her hand over his erection, while once again whisking her tongue over his nipple. “Are you complaining, my Lord?”
He snorted. “Don’t get sassy. I’ll eventually be free of this dainty piece of cloth and then guess what?”
Her hand eased over his cock to cup his balls. “Why don’t you stop thinking about what you’re going to do when you’re free of the tie and concentrate on what I’m doing to you now?”
“But there are so many things I want to do to you.”
She shifted on the bed and moved between his parted legs. “And you have an entire eternity in which to do them.”
Dragging her tongue from his base to his tip, she elicited a shudder from him.
He said, “You don’t even have to do anything and I want you.”
Her mouth closed over his head and she sucked him hard. He grunted.
“Okay,” he conceded. “You make your point exceptionally well.”
