Page 34 of Running from the Orc
And why not? I had a Mate I loved, a cozy home, and a future among my clan. We were at peace, thanks to our chief’s alliances, and prosperous enough to be comfortable. While Roxanna and I had no wish for kits yet—in fact, she drank a moon tea to ensure it wouldn’t happen—we were happy.
I was happy, and ‘twas my responsibility to make my Mate happy.
“Love,” I growled, my fingers tightening in her hair. “If ye continue this, I’ll spill down yer throat.”
She pulled away just long enough to tip her head back and smile wickedly up at me. Or mayhapanysmile would look wicked, were it framed by my Mate’s twinkling blue eyes and my cock’s underside resting against her mouth. “That is the hope, Varkaan.”
“Nay.” But despite my protest, I used my hold on her to drag her mouth along my hardness, loving the way such a move caused her arousal to blossom through the air again. She loved it when I commanded her thus. “I’ve been away for almost a sennight. Too many days without yer pretty human cunny to take my cock.”
She licked me as her free hand rose to cup my ballocks. “Mayhap I would rather taste you. Choke as your thick cum fills my throat and leaks from my lips.”
Gods below.
I almost came right then at the vivid imagery.
Instead, I pulled her up and away from my cock, and her chuckles told me she knew how close I was to losing control.
I tossed her back on the straw-stuffed mattress and she didn’t even bother to pulldown one of the many quilts. Instead, she twisted herself into position and spread her legs invitingly.
I wanted to taste her. I wanted to make her spend with my mouth and my fingers. But when I reached her, my Mate wouldn’t allow it, instead hooking her ankles around the back of my thighs and pulling her closer.
“Do you know what this one is called?” she asked cheekily.
I’d spent the last half year hearing about the miraculous scroll she and her sister and cousins near-worshipped. I’d even helped my Mate experiment so she could help add notes to the copy they were producing.
So now, as my cock probed her entrance, I raised a brow at her. “With ye spread out on the bed like this, and me standing?” It only worked because my bed was sized for me, not for her. “Something ridiculous, I would guess.”
She scooted closer, enveloping the head of my cock with her warm folds. “The Falconer and the Oyster.”
I snorted. “See? Ridiculous.”
“I did not choose the name, Mate.” She gyrated, as if trying to push her sweet cunny over my cock. “Are you going to pleasure me or not?”
Challenge accepted.
When I pushed into her, Roxanna came with a breathless wail.
‘Twas not unexpected; we’d been making love for half a year now, often several times a day. But I didn’t think I’d ever grow tired of the look of wonder on my Mate’s face when that ecstacy surprised her. I’d explained ‘twas a quirk of orc nature, to ensure our Mates were ready for us, but she kept calling it the best type of miracle.
I couldn’t disagree.
Tonight though, with my perfect Yule present now wrapping her legs around me, I couldn’t wait for her to ride out her ecstasy. I wrapped my fingers around her wrists and pushed them into the bed by her ears.
MyKteerhowled in anticipation, causing my claws to grow just enough to dimple her skin, and Roxanna moaned in pleasure, writhing beneath me. My firebrand wanted this. Wantedme.
My thrusts were uncontrolled, accompanied by beastly grunts as I plunged into her hot cunny. She wasmine, and I was claiming her without even allowing her first climax to run its course. I could feel her inner muscles milking me, so I knew her pleasure continued as she shuddered and gasped and moaned my name.
When I came, I roared wordlessly, spilling against her womb, and the sensation triggered her secondclimax. ‘Twas rare for her to reach ecstasy after me, and I basked in the thrill of her cunny squeezing my sensitive cock.
After, I pulled my Mate against me and curled around her. “Best Yule present ever.”
She chuckled soundlessly and stroked my back, which was already quite warm. “’Twas yourfirstYuletide gift, my love.”
“Aye, and ‘twill be difficult to beat next year. Mayhap ye should save that ribbon and I can find something else to wrap in it?”
“Deal.” She snuggled against me and we were quiet for a long moment.
Thiswas peace. This was perfection. To feel my Mate, the female I loved, breathing steadily beside me, and knowing that we had forever together. I knew I brought her pleasure, and would continue to do so. To know she was happy.
