Page 77 of Villainous Greed

A groan escaped my lips when her small hand wrapped around my cock. I wasn’t expecting her to touch me there, at least not so soon, but her brazenness shouldn’t have surprised me. My mate had always been a little spitfire. Of course, she’d set me aflame the moment she touched me.

I broke off the kiss as she rocked my world. My stomach flexed as my cock twitched. Nova gave my erection a squeeze, and my eyes rolled back. Cum erupted in her hand as I experienced absolute bliss.

“Fuck.” I moaned as I watched Nova. She stared heatedly as she moved her hand up and down my shaft.

There was no embarrassment at how quickly I exploded. All I had was jubilation for sharing myself with Nova. If she kept drooling at me like I was a chicken leg, though, my erection wouldn’t go down.

Nova released my cock and stuck her sticky fingers in her mouth. My mouth parted and my balls drew up again as ecstasy swirled through me from head to toe. “You’re going to kill me,” I thought as I pulled her digits from her mouth and kissed her passionately.

“I… think…” She tried to talk between kisses. “I want to lick you the same way you did me.”

I shuddered in delight. “You want me between your thighs again?”

“Yes.” The word came out breathy. “But are you sure we will fit together?”

My skin heated as I processed what she meant. “I meant with my mouth. We don’t have to rush into anything else.”But I wanted inside Nova bad and wouldn’t pretend otherwise. She called the shots, but I definitely wanted to feel her wrapped around my cock.

“Yes.” Nova panted as she pulled me closer. “You don’t understand. I feel empty when my body does this around you. I want you inside me.”

Nova desiring me was a big deal. She loathed the idea of sex, and yet she trusted me. I wouldn’t take that for granted. “Thank you for being my mate,” I whispered in her ear, causing her to shudder.

Nova draped her arms around my neck. I scooped her up, and she wrapped her legs around my waist. I turned off the water, carried her out of the bathroom, and used my powers to dry us.

“I like your thoughts,” she murmured between kisses.

“Get used to them,” I said right before I laid Nova on the bed, never once letting go of her as Ipressedmy weight into her. “You’re going to hear them forever.”

“Forever soundsniceif it’s with you.” She let out a sigh as I dragged my tongue down her neck.

I paused and lifted my head to meet her gaze. “We truly don’t have to rush. I don’t want you to fear me once we—”

“The things I saw in Derrick’s camp are not what we share. One is horrific, and the other is two people who want to connect.”

“I want to do more than connect with you. Once I’m in you, I want to stay there.”

She laughed softly. “That doesn’t sound possible.”

“I’m going to fucking make your pussy my home,” I declared, which had her shaking her head, still smiling up at me.

Nova cupped my cheek, then slid her fingers down my jawline. “Everything you say gives me tingles, August. How is that when everything you say is ridiculous?”

“Because you lo—” My powers disappeared. Every time they vanished, there was a great sense of loss. My mechanical arm slapped against my side as it dangled uselessly.

I knew Nova felt it too, because she frowned. “How long do you think they’ll be gone this time?”

Before I could reply, the room darkened.

“Disgusting.”

I threw a blanket over Nova at the sound of Derrick’s voice. Panic engulfed my lungs as I glanced around the room, searching. I had to protect Nova.

To my right, he winked into existence. He pulled back a red hood, revealing himself.

Nova threw her hand out, and Derrick laughed when nothing happened. “Check your wrist,” he told her.

My stomach sank when I saw the golden band on her left arm. How?When?

“Come here, Nova,” he ordered.
