He was growling, his chest rumbling under her head. She pulled off her clothes because they were the only ones she hadhere. He pulled down the jeans he wore, his cock fully erect at her eye level. A bead of precum clinging to the tip.

The large bed covered in furs stood opposite of the living room in his open-concept cave home and she was glad it wasn’t far because all she wanted to do was lie down, spread her legs and be pounded by the monster standing in front of her.

Her monster.

Her beast.

She ran her hands over his cock, but he gently removed her hands.

“No,” he said fiercely. “I will be the only tasting this night.”

With one quick motion he pushed her on her back, her legs splayed wide and he knelt down on his knees, sinking his hot tongue deep into her pussy, finding her G-spot.

“Oh fuck,” she moaned. “Dammit, Ben. I want to come around you.”

He chuckled, continuing his licks and teasing her, torturing her. And as she sank into the sensations, there was a moment of connection he mentioned, where she could sense the love he felt for her.

His desire, which burned like a raging inferno.

How much he wanted her.

Ben moved over her, his huge arms on either side of her head. His cock pressed against her slick folds as he slowly entered her. Stretching her, filling her completely. His cock so large, it rubbed all the right spots as he pumped in and out of her leisurely.

His big hands held her hips and his thumb travelled to rub her clit as he angled her to take him deep.

She grabbed her breasts, touching her nipples.

“Yes,” he growled. “Touch yourself, my mate.”

He increased his tempo, pounding her into the furs, just like she wanted.

And then the heat coiling deep in her belly released and she cried out, her pussy clenching down on his cock, milking him as she came.

Ben dug his hands into the flesh of her hips, guiding her pussy on his cock as he quickened his pace. His thrusts shallow until he let out a roar, coming into her. She could feel his release, which made her more aroused, but there was love and tenderness mixed with more in the connection she felt with him.

He cherished her and it made her emotional and she couldn’t help but cry. She knew she was safe here.

Ben slipped out of her. “Are you okay? You’re crying.”

“Fine.” She touched his check as he came to settle beside her. “More than fine.”

“Would you like a shower?” he questioned.

“I would.”

“I’ll start a fire to heat the water.” He stood and headed outside.

Well, not all the conveniences here, she mused, but that was okay.

She could stay here with Ben forever and she planned to, even if they were breaking all the rules. She wasn’t going to leave.

Ben could hear them coming before they were even close. It wasn’t just Adam and Aoife, but there were more beings and he knew exactly what they were here for. He glanced down at Bernadette, curled up against him under the furs, so tiny and sleeping so peacefully. There was a little smile on her face.

After their mating, he heated up the wood-fuelled water heater that he rigged up. It was farther up the hill and he made sure she had enough water.

When he got back, he carried her to the bathroom that was hers. He much preferred his little latrine outside and the small lake nearby to bathe in, but when she wanted him to join her in the shower, he was more than happy to comply.
