Page 87 of Kai's Hunger

I stared at her, desire coursing through me as I took Lily’s hand in mine. “Lily,” I said, my voice barely a whisper, “My world is yours now. The good and the bad.”

A wealth of anticipation gleamed in her eyes. “When I left Walnut Ridge I wanted to start fresh somewhere. Be my own person for the first time in my life.” Her smile lit me on fire. “Then I met you and everything changed. I don’t regret a second of it.”

I traced the curve of her jaw with my fingertip. “Let’s go back inside,” I urged, my cock hardening at the prospect of getting her beneath me. “I want to make love to you again.”

Lily’s cheeks flushed and I found her utterly intoxicating. “Kai,” she whispered my name, her voice filled with a raw emotion I could feel echoing within me.

I leaned in, my lips grazing her forehead in a gentle touch. “You’re fully healed now. I need you under me, my love,” I said, unable to contain the passion riding me. “I want to claim you properly.”

Lily’s fingers intertwined with mine, her touch a silent affirmation of her feelings. “But you did that, right?” she asked.

“In the way of my kind, I mean,” I explained, a surge of emotion swelling within me, my heart overflowing with a love I hadn’t expected to feel. I guided her back toward the cabin, our steps slow. The air around us thickened with anticipation, the world narrowing to the shared space between us.

As they entered the cabin, the warm glow of the fire was dimming, but I didn’t care. All that mattered was Lily. I closed the door behind me, then turned to her.

“Lily,” I whispered, my voice a low, sensual murmur. Hunger crashed through me as I closed the distance, capturing her lips in a kiss. I craved her. Ached for her. As our bodies pressed together, our breaths and heartbeats merged into a symphony of shared desire.

At her delicate moans, a low growl emanated from deep in my chest. I put one hand on her waist and walked us toward the bed. When the backs of my knees hit the side of the mattress, I allowed myself to fall backward, dragging Lily on top of me. I adjusted her until I had her right where I wanted her, pressed up close, my cock nudging that tempting V between her legs. My hand went to her hair, wrapping a fistful of the dark red tresses, and tugged. The instant our mouths touched, I knew I’d do anything to keep Lily. No one would ever separate us.

Lily...

Her name echoed in my mind just before my mouth crushed against hers, forcing her lips apart. I took possession of the sweet interior. Lily moaned and moved her hips in little circles, teasing and pushing me to the edge of control. I sucked at her lower lip and probed her mouth, tasting the sweet flavor of her arousal. I inhaled and knew Lily was close. Her scent had changed to a warm, spicy aroma that I would no doubt thirst for the rest of my life.

I pulled my mouth off her and growled, “Any pain?”

“None,” she groaned, then she drifted her lips over my jawline. “Please, Kai,” she begged.

“I’m here,” I assured her, then I caressed my way down her neck, nipping at the vein I found there. She breathed my name and it spurred me on. I let my tongue tease the delicate skin behind her ear. But another part of her body called to me.

I pulled my mouth free, then took hold of the hem of the shirt she’d thrown on. “Off with it,” I ordered. When she sat up, her soft wet pussy pressed against my cock, I was enthralled. Couldn’t move, could barely breathe as I watched her slowly lift the fabric, revealing her belly and ribcage. Bruises and cuts gone. All that remained was Lily’s silky ivory flesh. “My beautiful Lily,” I praised.

She never spoke, merely tossed the shirt over her head and let it fall to the floor. I knew I’d been given the greatest of gifts. I would never let her go. Never let her regret choosing me. Choosing our bond. I cupped both precious swells, then lifted my head and nibbled at her, my need for her uncontrollable. I moved my arms around her, mashing my face against the round orbs. My legs spread wide and I pushed my aching erection against the plush cushion of her ass, letting her feel what she did to me. Lily writhed shamelessly atop me, her moans turning to cries of need.

I hummed my approval, then released her nipple and let my hands skate down her body until I reached her mound. I cupped her there, enjoying the feel of her juices against my palm. Fuck, I was done being gentle. The predator in me was ready to take her. Mark her. I needed my scent covering her. Inside of her.

When her pussy slid over my cock, I bit back a curse. She was already so hot and wet. It wasn’t enough. I wanted her begging. MyYucilonneeded it. Craved it.

The fingers of her right hand reached out and stroked slowly over my pectorals, back and forth, her green eyes drawn by some imaginary force to the path her hand made over my body. As her fingers drifted lower over my abdomen, I flung my head back with a groan. Desire and pain mingled, pushing me precariously close to the edge. I was strung too tight. I forced myself to concentrate. I couldn’t afford to lose control. Lily was too new to my world. She wouldn’t understand if I became too aggressive. When Lily dipped her head and placed a gentle kiss on my left nipple, then nipped it with her teeth, a dark haze of lust engulfed me.

I took hold of a lock of hair and tugged until she was staring down at me. Her surprise reminded me that she was human. Had no idea how close I was. “Hands and knees, Lily,” I murmured.

Shock registered in her pretty gaze. “Is this the claiming you talked about?”

“Yes,” was all I could manage. My animal was in control now. I patted the bed beside me. “I won’t hurt you,” I vowed, hoping it was true.

“I trust you, Kai.” She licked her lips, then moved off me, going to her hands and knees beside me. “Like this?”

I couldn’t breathe, let alone speak. I sat up, then moved behind her. Her sex glistened from her arousal. I inhaled, enjoying the sweet scent. I nudged her legs wider, then dipped my finger inside her. “Are you sore?”

“No, oh, God,” Lily moaned as she flung her head back and gripped the blanket with both fists.

“Fuck, you’re beautiful,” I bit out. My mouth watered for a taste of her, right between her supple thighs. Using my thumbs, I spread her open, exposing her clitoris. I leaned forward and sucked it into my greedy mouth. Fuck, I was starving for her. My tongue dipped inside, tasting her tight channel. Lily cried out and pushed her hips against my face. I gave her what she needed, teasing her and flicking my tongue over and around her clit. Again and again, I played with her. When her thighs began to quiver and her body bowed, I suckled her clit once more, then watched in awe as she screamed my name and came for me.

I lifted my head from between her thighs, then positioned my cock at her entrance. “Now, Lily.”

She flung her head back. “Yes, please, Kai!”

I slid my dick in a few inches, careful not to hurt her, but Lily surprised me when she slammed her ass against my hips, seating my cock deep inside her tight sheath. “Fuck,” I growled.
