She hummed again. “That hard cock of yours says differently.”
“Yeah, well, I can’t let him do the talking, not this time.”
“Why not?” She spun to face me, and I instantly missed the way her body nested so perfectly within mine.
“Because we really don’t have that long before we’ll be summoned, and we need to talk while we still have the chance.”
She pouted, drawing my stare to her tempting lips. I couldn’t seem to look away as I told her, “We’ll have our entire lives to make love. We need to find the way to survive to make sure we get that.”
She huffed, her pout deepening. I had to press my lips together to keep from kissing her. When her hand circled my dick, I sucked in a hiss. And when she squeezed and beganstroking the length of me, I swallowed and fought to keep hold of my thoughts.
“We can have some fun while we talk, then,” she purred.
I was shaking my head before she even finished speaking. “Maybe you can. But I’m having trouble resisting the urge to roll you onto your back and fuck you till neither of us can walk straight.”
She slid down the covers to better expose my throbbing erection, staring at it as her hand glided up and down. “Again, that sounds like a fine plan.” When she licked her lips, my balls tightened.
I closed my eyes, groaned, tried to speak, failed, swallowed, and tried again. “El, I need you to stop. We need to?—”
She ran her tongue from base to tip, then swirled it around the head of my dick. I forgot what I was saying and why it mattered in the first place.
“Come on, Rush. We haven’t seen each other in weeks. Plus, not that I’m all that eager to remind you of it, but unlike you, you’re my first, and now that I’ve had a taste, I want to feast. Besides, who knows how long we have, with her high and mighty cuntness out to get us...”
After an inhale so deep and steeling, like I was preparing to head into the battle that would define the end times, I pressed my hand to hers, stilling it gently. When she released her grip, I wove my fingers through hers and scooted closer so our chests met. I hooked a leg across her hips and brought our joined hands to my chest above my heart. “I promise you there is absolutely nothing, and I do mean nothing, that I want more than what you’re offering. But we’ve gotta talk. It’s too important.”
She groaned and slid her head back atop the pillow for a moment, then again met my stare. “I know, I know. It’s just ... it sucks. All I want is to forget everything else and just be with you.”
A soft, quick kiss that wouldn’t be too great a temptation. “So let’s talk fast and see where that leaves us.” I grinned.
She waggled her brows. “You’d better start talking, or I’m coming after my prize.”
A tingle swept up and down my spine at being referred to that way. Never had I imagined I’d desire to feel like her possession.
I dragged my free fingers down her side; she shivered. “First of all, are you sore?”
“Why would I be sore?”
“Well, for one, you’ve got cuts all over you.”
“Yeah, but they’re mostly healed up.”
“And also, as you mentioned, you’re new to all this lovemaking. And I didn’t exactly take it easy on you last night.” Regret was already swelling in my gut when she shook her head.
“No, Rush, no. I loved every second of it, I swear. I don’t hurt at all. I haven’t since the first time. You’re free to give it to me as often and hard as you’d like. Or as I’d like.” She shrugged slyly. “Hopefully they’re one and the same.”
I blinked slowly as for a moment I lost myself to that endless gray stare of hers, like a storming ocean.
“What’s next?” she prompted, licking her lips while her gaze trailed across mine.
It was looking like we might have to get fully dressed and sit across the room from each other to get through this. “Do we have privacy?”
She snorted but glanced over her shoulder to check. “For now.”
“What happened in the Wilds?”
“We almost got killed a whole lot. I connected to the magic of the land ... some. It was strange, and I really didn’t know what I was doing, but I glowed, and when I did it kept the monsters away. And then the dragon appeared out of nowhere. When I bowed to it, it bowed back. The next thing I knew, I was standingin the throne room. The others must be really freaking out that I disappeared.”
“I’m sure they are, but there’s nothing we can do to help that now.”
