With Ulf at her heels, Nari danced around the kitchen, practically glowing in the morning sun. The light silhouetted her lithe body through one of his white t-shirts, so he could see she wore nothing beneath.
She turned to him and smiled, her eyes glowing as she took in his nakedness and rapidly growing arousal. “Magnus, I—”
Feral need surged through his system as his dick turned to iron. He could have lost her. He needed to connect with her in the most basic way possible to reassure himself that she was there. Safe and whole.
Magnus wasted no time in sweeping her into his arms and diving into a kiss. Relief, happiness, and passion were a potent mix in his blood. He picked her up and perched her on the edge of the polished wood counter, leaving her at the perfect height and position to take him. Magnus wrenched the shirt off her.
She was petite in all ways. And absolutely perfect.
He’d barely gotten the fabric out of the way before he grasped her thighs, pushed them wide, and drove himself deep inside her wet slit with one long, solid thrust.
At last!The beast inside him roared in delight.
The haze cleared a little to be replaced by the most intense pleasure. He looked down at her and probably looked as chagrined as he could be with her body gripping his cock tight. “Did I hurt you? I … I just … I couldn’t…”
Nari looked a bit dazed but shook her head. “I get it,” she panted. Biting her lip, she held his gaze as she hooked her legs around his hips and drew him toward her, sinking him into her farther.
Just the heat of her, tight and slick around him, sucked the strength out of his knees. Locking them, he surged forward, this time nearly passing out from the sheer pleasure that rocketed through him as her body sucked him deeper. And heaven help him, he followed where she led.
“More, Magnus,” she panted.
He’d give her anything. Everything.
He worked himself in and out of her slowly. So, so maddeningly slowly that he was sure he would lose his mind from the sheer pleasure.
Her head lolled back as unintelligible murmurs pouredfrom her lips. He leaned in so he could taste the flesh on her neck while her lips grazed the shell of his ear. Her whispers were a tangled litany of words he couldn’t understand. But he heardMagnus,mate, andmore. She squirmed and dug her heels into his ass and successfully pushed him as deep as he could go, much to both of their delights.
It was enough to almost push his body over the edge.
Shit.
Gritting his teeth, he drew back and then pushed in again. And again. There was nothing else in the world that mattered more than giving her as much pleasure as he was taking. It only spurred him on when Nari moaned her praise and clawed at his shoulders and back.
She growled at him to move faster. Deeper. To come with her. To join them completely. His lust-hazed brain barely heard her. All that he knew was that now he was inside her, he never wanted to be anywhere else. He never wanted this to end.
He grazed his teeth over the sensitive skin on her neck before growling, “My mate.”
****
The barely leashed animal in Magnus thrilled her. The twin realizations that he could very easily hurt her while at the same time he would never do a thing to harm so much as a hair on her head made her dizzy with delight.
She arched her neck into his mouth further, teasing him, almost daring him to bite. To mark her and make her his. His answering groan and the way he bucked up into her told her how close to the edge he was.
He thrust again, and Nari was sure Magnus’s huge erection was going to split her in two. But what a way to go. The hot, wet drag of his veined cock against tissues that were stretched tight around him built the sensuous tension inside her. Wound her tighter and tighter with every pass. She writhedagainst him, needing that friction. Wanting everything he gave.
She slid a hand between them, wanting to drive him over the edge with her.
Her fingertips grazed where they were joined, and he jerked in reaction, earning moans from them both at the jolt of sensation.
Magnus lifted his head so she could see the conflicting emotions on his face. “I could have lost you.” He thrust solidly into her, and her vision blurred. “I’m sorry I was such an idiot.” He took his time dragging his cock out before slamming back into her. His eyes were lowered as he murmured, “Just don’t ever leave me. I don’t think I could handle it.”
She doubted she’d be walking anywhere when they were done any more than she could imagine leaving him.
Nari cupped his cheeks, and he lifted his gaze to meet hers as her legs tightened around his waist. “I’m yours as you are mine.”
His eyes darkened as he lowered his head to whisper against her lips, “Come for me.”
The rhythm of his plunges grew faster, harder, until she was screaming his name as her body convulsed around him and milked him for all his worth.
