Page 39 of The Dark Sea Calls

“Rainn…”

“You saved my life tonight.” Rainn’s sky-blue eyes swirled like a storm. “Magic doesn’t matter. Majority doesn’t matter. I know who you are, Maeve Cruinn and I know you think you haven’t been blessed by the gods, but I can tell you very muchhave.”

“How?” I laughed breathlessly. “Because I have such a fine male between my legs?”

“That too.” Rainn chuckled as he crawled further between my legs, his hands skimming the sensitive skin of my inner thighs, closer to my core. My knees locked tight, my legs closing around his body involuntarily. Rainn’s eyes sparkled mischievously as his fingers dipped below my skirt, finally reaching where my thighs met. I was wet; I knew I was. All of his teasing had certainly warranted my body’s reaction. I tried not to be embarrassed, but my cheeks warmed as I held his gaze in challenge.

Rainn leaned down, pressing his lips to the skin a few inches from my core. He pulled back his lips to reveal his sharp teeth and sucked the delicate flesh of my inner thigh into his mouth, biting down. My leg spasmed against the pain, stealing all thought and turning my vision white.

I put my hand on Rainn’s forehead, forcing him away from my skin. He opened his jaw, smirking with his sharp canines coated in blood. He licked his lips, keeping his eyes on mine.

“You bit me! Again!” I said, my words slow and confused. I waited to see what he would do next. Unsure, but somehow aroused by the throbbing pain in my thigh.

Rainn waggled his brows. “Want to see what else I can do?”

My eyes narrowed. “Selkies,” I muttered, the word choked off as I felt a wet tongue on the inside of my thigh, moving up up up, under my skirt. I looked down in shock, but only the top of Rainn’s silver hair was visible.

I felt his fingers part my lips, trailing through the wetness at my core, and his breath chill my skin.

I remembered what Rainn had said all those weeks ago about biting me—and liking it. I shuddered, my head falling back as he pressed his tongue to my center. Licking a stripe from my entrance to the sensitive nub above it. Using the tip of his tongue as a dart, he circled around my clitoris. Never touching it directly. I felt my body clench as pleasure raced through my body, leaving my skin too hot and tight.

Rainn made a sound of approval as he began to lick more ferociously, desperate to taste me. He circled my clit once more before lowering his tongue to my entrance and flicking it inside. A moment later, his finger replaced his tongue, the tip thrusting inside my pussy, just enough to make me moan but not enough to fill me.

I needed him inside of me.

I reached between my legs, pulling Rainn up until his mouth met mine. His lips tasted like my juices. He pulled back, trying to return his face between my legs when I grabbed his cheeks.

“Please,” I begged.

Rainn’s blue eyes flashed like liquid mercury, and the muscle in his jaw fluttered as he reached down to the button of his trousers and shucked them off down his legs. He reached between us, grasping his cock and lining it up with my entrance.

My eyes never left his, but I heard the unspoken questions.

Was I sure?

I nodded once.

“I need you,” I told him.

With a single thrust, the head of his cock dipped into my entrance. Testing the waters. I was so wet, and he slid inside so easily. My walls fluttered around him, trying to suck him deeper, but Rainn pulled back, each thrust gaining a little more ground. Teasing me into the stratosphere until I clawed his back like a feral beast.

Finally, when his entirety sat inside of me. Stretching me. He held himself at the deepest point and kissed me so intensely I couldn’t breathe or do much else but writhe against his hard cock. Trying to force some kind of movement.

Rainn seemed to enjoy torturing me.

I closed my legs, bucking my hips. Finally, when nothing else worked, I found his shoulder, and my teeth sank deep into the flesh. Rainn closed his eyes, sighing as if the pain of my teeth was his greatest pleasure. Finally, with my teeth still locked on his throat, he began to rock his hips. I melted, falling back onto the floor as he thrust into my body, my legs wound around his ass, feeling his cock inside me. Filling me.

I closed my eyes. All I could see was starlight. Swathed in Rainn’s smell, the feel of his skin, and the stretching pain and pleasure as he fucked me.

My orgasm came so quickly that I shocked myself, letting out a mew and a course groan as my toes curled and my back arched. Rainn’s fingers dipped into my hips before his thrusts grew erratic, spurned on as my core clenched around him like a tight fist.

His chest heaving, he looked down at me, the blue in his eyes rolling like the sunlight hitting the surface of the dark sea.

I reached out and grasped him to me. My breathing was as labored as his.

Something had shifted inside of me, but I wasn’t sure what. Rainn had crawled under my skin, and I had welcomed him into my body.

We were no longer enemies, but I couldn’t say what we had become.
