I'd avoided thinking and talking about sex for the last twenty-six years. Now, the words poured out of me in a rush. "You're so gorgeous like this. You take my cock so well."

"I'm not going to last," he whispered. "Your cock is better than any toy."

"Wait until you feel my knot."

"Nngh."

I dropped my hands lower, thinking he was close. His eyes flashed open, and he grabbed my wrists, dragging my hands back up to his chest.

"Not yet."

He increased his pace and leaned forward on his knees. His legs shook when he found the angle he needed. I held him up as he rode me toward ecstasy.

"Need you." Robin settled on my cock and rolled his hips, pushing me even closer to the edge. I palmed the tip of his cock, and that was all he needed. Hot cum rained down on my shoulder, chest, and hip, and the rest dribbled between my fingers as I stroked him through it.

His channel gripped me tight as he continued to rock his hips. He leaned forward and his tongue darted out to lick a drop of his cum from my chest, his gaze never leaving mine. He was the sexiest omega I had ever seen, and he was all mine.

He stretched out on my chest, his mouth seeking the juncture of my shoulder and neck. I lifted on my elbows to give him the height he needed to mark me where it counted.

The sting of pleasure and pain took me over the edge into bliss. I came hard, and he continued to rotate his hips in a clockwise motion, prolonging it even as my knot expanded inside him.

I lifted my knees to shove his body closer to my mouth. His shoulders were almost as thick as mine, but the cord of muscle at his neck was easy to grip and pierce with my sharp teeth. Blood filled my mouth.

I healed the mark with my magic, and Robin collapsed to my chest with a whimper. His tight channel felt too good to resist. I continued to thrust my knot into him until his cock pulsed valiantly and more cum spurted between us.

"It feels even better than I expected," he whispered.

I was too far gone for words. His channel spasmed around me again, and I shook with my second orgasm, thanks to the blissful power of the mating bite and my perfect omega.

My knot deflated soon after, but Robin was already asleep on my chest, rung out from his orgasms. Thankfully, my spell had held like a sturdy condom.

I gently lifted Robin off me and made a trip to the bathroom. I released the spell into the toilet and cleaned myself up. Another quick spell, and Robin was clean, warm, and dry in a pair of his magical compression shorts.

Sex with him had been wondrous, but I loved curling around him and holding him to my chest just as much. I kissed his temple and thanked the gods, fates, and whatever else was listening for my precious omega. Few others would have agreed to my compromise.

I'd told Robin the truth. I wanted the rest of the world to know he was mine, but I wasn't ready to lose another clutch. He'd accepted it, and me, without hesitation. Now, my only worry was how his family would take it.

ChapterThirteen

Robin

The next morning,I showed off my new mating mark over breakfast with my family. Instead of allowing me a moment to glow, Clementine immediately threw me under the bus.

"You don't smell pregnant."

I cleared my throat in the eerie silence. My entire family had stopped mid-activity to stare at me. Papa had his fork poised mid-air on one end of the table. Dad loudly swallowed his bite on the other. Across the table from Clementine and me, my alpha brothers halted their conversation and turned as one with their heads cocked at the exact same angle.

"We're waiting on that."

Dad and my alpha siblings turned to each other with confused looks, and Clementine rolled her eyes. Papa was the only one who grinned and nodded.

"Waiting is good," he said. "It gives Weld time to settle into life around here." I expected him to say something mean, but instead he patted my hand. "It also gives us a chance to throw you a housewarming party before the dragon reunion."

"Hey," Dad said. "That was my idea."

"Well, before, we didn't know how many rooms we were working with. Now we know they won't be expanding their house anytime soon."

Eating resumed, and the conversation moved on around me until Grover asked, "Are you coming back to work at the fortress?"
