Page 73 of Death and Desire

Khalid stepped out of reach and shook his head. “Would you rather wait?”

“No,” Violet nearly shouted. Her heart fluttered at the thought of being left in this state of uninhibited, unabashed lust. “I want this now. I want you.”

Khalid’s soft growl made her shiver. He prowled forward, and she scrambled away, her back landing softly on the blankets. His hands caressed her calves, spreading her legs as he joined her.

She inhaled sharply as his appreciative gaze slid from her face, over her breasts and stomach, to settle on the downy hair between her thighs. Memories of their stolen moment in the garden rushed back to her in a wave. His deliberate touch as he brought her to climax in the dark alcove, hidden from view of passing hotel guests.

Khalid inclined his head as he settled between her thighs. He drew a finger over her sex. “Your body weeps for me, my Violet.”

Her body trembled at his soft caress. She moaned as he placed the glistening finger on his tongue.

Khalid lowered himself, bracing his hands on her thighs, spreading her wide, inhaling before covering her cunt with his mouth.

Violet bucked against his hold as his tongue slid deep, tasting her. Her muttered curses filled the room as he devoured her, his tongue seeking her heat, exploring with an eagerness she hadn’t expected. He laved every part of her, collecting her arousal on his tongue as though it were fine honeyed wine.

She writhed beneath his touch, her gasping pants and whispered pleas filling the silence.

“Please...I...need...”

Violet gasped between harried breaths. Her heart raced, even as her body hummed.

“Tell me what you need,” Khalid murmured into her aching cunt. His wicked tongue darted out, sliding along her clit.

“I need to come,” she whimpered.

“Take your release, Violet.” His breath caressed her between calculated strokes of his tongue. “Let me taste it when you cry out my name.”

His grip on her thighs pinned her in place as he redoubled his efforts.

Her body pulsed, a shimmering haze of climax pulling her deeper.

“Anubis!” she cried out as it took hold, wrapping her in its firm embrace. Her fingers threaded through his hair, stroking his head as the pressure of his mouth slowly eased.

With a final lick, he leaned back, dark eyes glittering with something she couldn’t quite place. A smile curved his wet lips, and he licked them.

Pride.She recognized it just before he released his hold and covered her body with his.

The slide of his warm skin along hers as he settled over her made her sigh with contentment. His cock brushed against her still pulsing cunt. He captured her mouth in a desperate kiss, and she opened for him, her moan lost on his tongue.

Violet clutched his shoulders, rocking her hips. The heat of his cock stoked her fire as it slid across the spot where she craved him.

He hooked his hand behind her knee, drawing her open as he lifted her leg to the side. He fitted himself to her, placing his cock at her entrance and driving deep.

A groaning gasp ripped from her chest as he filled her. He reached into her mind, the gentle caress soothing her discomfort. Violet pushed his chest.

“Don’t do that.” She gasped as he stilled.

His brow furrowed. “I hurt you.”

Violet shook her head. “I want to feel everything.” She thrust upward, and he swelled inside her, his grip bruising her thigh. “Pleasure and pain. I want them both.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes.” She kissed him, drawing his lip between her teeth and biting gently. “Please.”

Her plea unleashed the beast within him.

Khalid pinned her wrists to the bed on either side of her. He growled as he drove his hips against her, pushing deep. Every thrust unraveled another spiral of pleasure, punctuated by the sweet sting of discomfort.
