Page 26 of Beautiful Heart

When she reached between them for his cock, he pulled her hand away before she could touch him. Breaking the kiss, he breathed hard for several racing heartbeats before he said, “The witnesses held the prince’s mate down while he claimed her.”

Gerri’s eyes went wide at his explanation. “No, having them in the hall being ear witnesses is fine.”

Livingston’s smile grew as she stroked a hand down the center of his chest. “So, prince of the coven, how do we do this?

Hearing the men in the hall shifting and no doubt getting restless, Livingston moved faster than the human eye could follow. In seconds he stood and tossed her to the middle of the bed before following her to the mattress.

He swallowed her gasp of surprise as he reached down and fit the head of his cock to her dripping wet pussy. As he slid into her body, filling her completely, he said in a voice loud enough for those in the hall to easily hear: “I, Livingston Daniels, take you, Gerri Markham, as my mate, to love, cherish, and protect with all that I am, all that I have, and all that I will be from now until the end of our time on this Earth. Do you accept me as your mate and prince for our eternity together?”

“Yes, Livingston, I accept you as my mate and prince for the rest of eternity,” Gerri responded, though her words were soft.

“Louder, Princess,” Kingsley called from the hall.

Gerri’s cheeks turned pinker as she repeated in a much louder voice. “Yes, Livingston, I accept you as my mate and prince for the rest of eternity. I love you, too.”

The “Thank you,” from the hall set her to giggling.

Livingston couldn’t help but chuckle with her, until she began to squeeze her pussy muscles around his cock. With her agreement, his vampire instinct to mate and claim took over, shredding every single thread of Livingston’s control.

Chapter Fourteen

Saying the words that had Livingston’s eyes flash red before flashing back again, felt like more of a commitment than the wedding vows she had taken as a young woman. When her prince and mate began to move, her thoughts splintered and she could think of nothing other than the ties that now bound her to this big, beautiful Jamaican vampire.

Each thrust of his cock into her pussy sent her higher and higher. While he began slowly moving out until only the head remained before filling her again, it only took a few thrusts before he was moving as fast as a piston in a race car.

All she could do was hold on and enjoy the race to the peak of her arousal. “Now, Prince,” she cried out, digging her nails into his back as her orgasm exploded out from her pussy to every cell in her body.

Her head tilted to the side, exposing her neck and in the next moment Livingston’s fangs sunk deep and he began to feed. With that, her orgasm seemed to grow even brighter, blinding her to everything except the feeling of her soul winding itself around Livingston’s.

Her mate’s roar of completion as his seed pulsed deep into her body sent her spiraling even higher until she wasn’t sure she would ever return to her body.

“Bite me, Princess,” Livingston’s order had her moving without thought.

Lifting her head from the mattress, she sank fangs she hadn’t even realized had extended into the flesh where shoulder met neck. At the same time, she planted her feet on the mattress near Livingston’s hips and began to pulse her hips up, fucking him.

She swallowed the blood that crossed her tongue, not giving a thought as to what she was doing. After hearing Livingston cry out again, and feeling his cock pulse more of his seed into her, she pulled her fangs from his body and licked the twin wounds closed.

Everything in her then went limp. If they’d been attacked by anyone, she would be of no help in protecting herself or her mate. Forcing her eyes open, she saw that while Livingston’s upper body was propped up on his elbows to allow her to breathe, he appeared in the same state as she felt.

Finally, he opened his eyes and eased his hips back before shifting to lay beside her.

“Sleep, mate of mine,” he whispered as he pulled her close and brushed a kiss on her temple. “You are safe in my arms, now and forever.”

With a sigh, Gerri did as her mate commanded. Closing her eyes, she slept, safe in the knowledge that she was no longer alone in the world.

When she woke just a short while later, Gerri took a deep breath and rolled to face her mate. She frowned when she realized someone had pulled the covers over them. Her mate was still asleep, looking more relaxed than she had ever seen him before.

Needing to answer nature’s call, she eased from his hold and left bed. She was washing her hands when she heard Livingston’s voice in her head.

Where is my princess?

Livingston?

Yes, love. Where are you?

Bathroom, she responded even as she walked back into the bedroom.

“We can communicate through our minds?” she asked as she crossed to the bed and crawled back under the covers.
