“Ye—”
I returned the favor, all the way to the hilt. He snarled and so did I.
“Oh, fuck,” he yelled hoarsely, his hands fisting in the bed covers.
I snapped my hips forward again. “Don’t give me what you can’t take, Tiger love.”
He gasped into the mattress as I fucked him hard and relentlessly. Our bodies clapped together, fast and filthy. He tried to prop up on his hands, but I shoved his shoulders back down to the bed.
I kept driving into him, full force. “Sometime soon…what would you think…of adding something a little kinky into things?”
“Whatever you want,” he groaned.
“If I want to tie you up? Fuck you like that?”
“Yes!”
“Tie you up and make you watch me fuck Jenny?”
He growled into the pillow, low and eager. “I like to watch.”
I leaned back again, slapped his ass hard, and he moaned, long and low. “And spank you—”
“Fuck, yes!”
I smacked him harder, which made him buck back against me. “Dirty boy. You want to try everything, don’t you?”
“With you…and her.”
The words I’d held back almost spilled out of me right then. But it seemed wrong to tell him how I felt while I was shoved up his ass and we were being so aggressive with each other. A love declaration was supposed to be sweet, or so I thought.
Instead, I pulled his hips up and fucked him harder. My hand reached around to grip his cock while my other reached for his tail again. I stroked it as I jerked him, and he let out a sound I’d never heard before. Half growl, half trembling howl. His body locked up tight around me and I kept driving into him like that until his orgasm hit.
He shouted into the pillow, body spasming, his release coating my hand. His ass clenched around me so tight it forced my own orgasm free. I slammed into him one final time and joined him over that blissful edge of pleasure.
He sagged flat to the bed and I slipped free. I brushed my fingers through his hair, from his head to his tail as I murmured, “I adore you, Tiger love.”
His voice was muffled by the pillow. “I adore you, too, Mal.”
I smiled on my way to the bathroom to clean up. Once I returned, he was snoring loudly on top of the bedspread, still in the same position I had left him in. He looked thoroughly ruined. Well-fucked and spent.
Gods, he was sexy like this.
Not ready to sleep, I dressed and strolled through my home toward Surge’s lab. The staff were about, tending their duties, pretending not to have heard me and Tiger. They were good like that.I should give them a raise.
I was sure Surge would have good news about Jenny, or at least,anynews about her condition by now. I’d once known a man who had headaches the way hers came and went, and he had lost his mind, right before he attacked his platoon and had to be put down. Longshot had been there and had witnessed it, as well. It was a memory I couldn’t shake and her headaches were giving me flashbacks.
I hopped down the spiral stairs, feeling light-hearted and so at ease. It was strange…I’d never known I could be so happy being in love. Love was a loss of control, and yet I’d given in willingly. It was so unlike me.
When I reached the lab, I opened the door and said, “So how—”
Jade came out of seemingly nowhere and shoved me, knocking me off balance and sending me to the floor on my side. I landed in a puddle of warm blood. My heart hammered, and when I looked up, she was covered in it, too. Face splattered, hands red. Her eyes wild.
“What the fuck?” I shouted.
“I gave you a chance, Malice Ripper,” she said, her voice a low, spine-tingling growl. “I wanted to party with you. But you’re a heartless, cruel boy. You don’t deserve friends.”
I knew those words, and my heart seemed to freeze in my chest. “Petal?”
