“Look at me,” I commanded. “Look in my eyes. I want to watch you while you come on my cock.”
Obeying my order, she looked down into my eyes, her mouth open, face red, and eyes nearly shut as the power of her climax built.
“Yes,” she cried. “Don’t stop. It’s so fucking good.”
My own orgasm was thundering forward with each thrust, like a wild beast rushing toward a cliff. I never slowed my pace as I basked in the glory of her body and how she made me feel.
Elle let out a long, low cry of ecstasy and shuddered in my arms as she came. An instant later, my own climax burst forth like an explosion. Neither of us broke eye contact, even as we cried out in pleasure. The connection and intensity of that moment sent my mind reeling.
When we were done, Elle collapsed against me, resting her head on my shoulder.
“You are so fucking good at that,” she mumbled, her voice muffled against my collarbone.
“You aren’t too bad yourself,” I said, running my fingers up and down her body.
“At least you don’t have some weird two-headed monster dragon dick. I may not have survived.”
I chuckled as I nudged her face up to look in her eyes. “You have no idea how amazing you are, do you?” I said
“I’m not that amazing,” she said, shaking her head and lowering her eyes. “I’m just a normal person.”
I lifted her chin, bringing her gaze back to mine. “Not to me you aren’t. You’re more. A lot more. You’re special.”
A slight blush rose to her cheeks, and she brushed her fingers over my shoulder. “No one’s ever called me special before.”
Running my thumb along her cheek, I held her gaze, wondering if I could really say what I wanted to say. I had to get it out, but what if she didn’t feel the same? I’d never been more nervous to say something.
“I don’t know where this is going,” I finally managed to say, my heart thrumming wildly. “Or how it’s all going to play out, but I can’t let this day end without telling you…”
“Telling me what?” she said, straightening up to get a better look at me.
“You mean so much to me. I know it’s only been a few weeks but…” I shook my head in wonder. “I think I’m falling for you.”
The smile that broke across her face reminded me of a sunrise, a glorious and bright shining ray of hope that pushed back the darkness. My heart thumped in my chest, and my dragon roared in the back of my mind.
Elle put a hand to my cheek. “I feel the same way.”
A sigh of relief came then, slipping from my chest like a whisper. “I was worried you might not be there yet.”
“Really?” She furrowed her brow, then chuckled. “I thought the same thing.”
“I guess we have even more in common than we thought.” I kissed her again, long, slow, and sweet. I never wanted it to end.

BRIELLE
Aurelius’s tongue caressed mine, his hands gently ran along my back and ass. We’d only finished a few minutes ago, and already my body was responding to him. It made it hard to think about anything but the way he felt inside me.
The way he’d confessed his feelings for me, had filled me with both elation and excitement, but also a hopeless distress. Even if hewasfalling for me, even if he wanted me as badly as I wanted him, there was almost nothing we could do for those emotions. He was a dragon, and I was a wolf. Even if our families and races didn’t hate each other, a dragon and wolf couldn’t have children. What kind of prince would tie himself to a woman who couldn’t bear him an heir to his throne? Plus, what would the rest of the dragons think? Would they feel betrayed that he chose someone like me? No. That could never happen.
Though, until this played out, I was going to do all I could to soak up every moment. Soon, I would be back at my job at the sewing shop, back among the humans, pretending tobeahuman. Aurelius would go about his life as prince and heir. Until that happened, though, I wanted to live.
“What are you doing?” Aurelius asked.
He was still inside me, slowly softening, but I couldn’t stop myself from grinding on him again.
“I think the big bad dragon has another round in him, doesn’t he?” I moved my hips as desire stirred low in my belly again.
