Page 23 of Wild for the Wyvern

My clit aches for release just from being near him and knowing he wants me. My nipples tighten with need. “Is theresomeplace closer we can go?” I grip his thick cock and run my hand from base to tip.

On a long growl, he lifts me in his arms and wings us into the air. “I can’t fly far with you like this, but the lake is nearby.”

I hold on tight as he flies up just above the leaves and the warm summer air brushes against my cheeks. We land a minute later, on the soft slope of the lake. The moon shines down on the still water as we fumble to strip me out of my clothes.

I run my fingers over the warm, leathery expanse of his wings. Every cell in my body tingles with desire. It’s as if fires burn under my skin and only his touch can feed them, as well as quell them. “So, you can change different parts without becoming the wyvern?”

Caressing my shoulder, then down along the swell of my breast, his breath shakes. “Some parts are more useful as a man than others. His long, forked tongue slides from his mouth as he kneels before me.

As he slips his tongue between my folds, pleasure ripples out from my center.

I widen my stance and moan with delight. My body shakes as he teases my clit, then enters me before repeating. My legs shake, and I grip his shoulders to keep on my feet. Again and again, the two ends of his tongue slide around my sensitive folds and rub my bud. He plunges inside me, touching deep and pushing me over the edge so hard, I wrap my arms around his and call his name. “Drayce,” I say more softly as his hands cup my ass.

As I wrap my legs around him, he rolls to his back and eases me onto the tip of his cock. As he breaches my slit, I moan with the pleasure of becoming one with this magnificent creature. “I love you.”

The wyvern’s tongue pulls inside his full lips and when he opens his mouth, he’s fully human. “I love you too.”

I impale myself until we both grunt with the pleasure of joining. I lift my hips and set a fast pace as another orgasm starts to build.

Drayce grips my hips and slows me down. “Easy, love. We have a lifetime.”

Every time he fills me, the base of his shaft rubs my clit and pushes me closer to the rapture I seek. Pressing my hands to his chest, I change the angle to take him a little deeper.

He growls, the wyvern close to the surface, and his eyes change, pupils narrowing to slits. “You’re perfect, mate.” His voice is lower than normal.

The barbs along his cock release and brush my sheath. I come in a torrent and can’t stop the scream of release before collapsing onto his chest.

Gripping my hips, he lifts me enough to pound inside me from below. He grunts with pleasure once, twice, and with a third thrust, he fills me with warm cum. Wrapping his arms around me, he pulls me tight and kisses my hair. “You’re everything.”

When there is no knotting, I ease forward and sigh with the emptiness of his body leaving mine. With my forearms on his chest, I stare into his mostly human eyes. “Why didn’t we knot again?”

Staring a moment, he brushes my hair off my cheek and tucks it behind my ear. “I don’t really know. You may have conceived earlier today, or maybe that doesn’t happen every time. We’ll have to learn these things together, my love.”

“I like that.” I cuddle into his chest. “Can we go home now?”

His wings push from his back, lifting us higher off the ground and he wraps them around me in a warm cocoon. “In a little while. I have to change fully to carry you that far. As a man, my wings are only suitable for short flights. I want to hold you a bit longer.”

Engulfed in his arms and wings, I know I’ll always be safe here. My wild wyvern is the best man I’ve ever known.

Epilogue

Kori

It’s my wedding day. I can’t believe any of this has happened to me. I was lonely and unhappy for most of my life, and now I have a mate who adores me, a life where I get to co-write cookbooks with a famous chef, and a job in a local restaurant. I look in the mirror while Astra fusses over my hair and I sigh.

“I hope that’s a happy sound.” Astra pins the curl she just made beside the last, forming a tiara shape along my crown.

“So happy. Thank you for doing this. Meg and Lori will be here soon, and you’ll be able to join the other guests.” I admire the way I look on the biggest day of my life. Besides the hair and light makeup, I look happy. I hardly recognize the woman I see in the mirror today or any day in the last three months.

“I didn’t think wyverns took much stock in formal marriages.” She winds another piece of my hair around a curling iron.

“Drayce is doing this for me. He even got the local judge to come and marry us. It’s enough for him that we are mates and bonded for life, but I’d like the paper and customs of my human world too. Besides, who doesn’t want a party?” I grin at her through the mirror and she laughs.

It’s still impossible to look away from the nymph. She’s like a magnet. “Well, one thing is certain, with all the food that you and Niko made over the last few days, no one will go away hungry.”

The door to my bedroom flies open, and in stumble Dean, Meg, and Lori in a clatter of noise and laughter.

“We’re here!” Meg’s arms are full. She’s carrying a dress on a hanger and rolling her suitcase. She ushers the others into the room without looking up.
