Page 79 of The Curse of a Kingdom
She trembled in his arms, holding her breath for a moment before her orgasm ran through her body, like waves of ecstasy that bloomed and colored her skin. His stomach tightened, and the pleasure of an orgasm built within him. His breathing faltered as he tried to calm his body and not come all over his pants like a teenager.
What the hell was that?
Breathless and confused, he swallowed down and focused on the woman in front. “I have wanted to do that for so long,” he said in a tone he almost didn’t recognize. Orion wanted to taste her and not be so gentle when making her shout his name as he filled her.
Nava turned around and captured his lips with hers in a demanding kiss. Orion growled against her lips and dropped his hands to her hips, pushing against her in a way that almost calmed both of their needs. But she needed more of him if her clawing at his back was anything to go by.
She fumbled over the hidden buttons of his coat. It didn’t take long for his large hands to replace hers, and soon his white coat fell to the ground, joining the pile of clothes already there. She touched his chest like it was something to be revered, not the marked planes of skin he saw day after day. Goose bumps appeared on his chest when her lips crashed down, her tongue peeking out to taste him, over that weird mark in the middle of his pecs.
She continued down and over the bulges of his abs, licking and nipping as she went, and he could barely hold himself together as anticipation built. But it wasn’t only his need to have her wrap her lips around him; there was also a growing sense of worry.
That he couldn’t hold a candle to the man she was used to. Maybe he wasn’t good enough, not in his current broken state. A shadow of the man he was sure she loved.
She untied the leather strings that held his pants up, and he tried to swallow the knot that had formed there. His blood was boiling too hot, and he was too turned on for his sudden nerves to cool him. Her lips continued across the muscles of his pelvic bone.
His pants loosened as she pushed them down with an eagerness that matched his mood. Nava met his gaze as she wrapped her hand around him, giving him a tentative pump.
A breath caught in his throat just before she took him in her mouth and swallowed him whole. He grunted, holding himself against the mirror with one hand, entranced as he looked at her.
His mouth opened in a silent cry as he grasped her hair. Soon her curls were falling loose over her back and face, and she hollowed her cheeks. Sheknewit would drive him crazy.
He gasped, and the memory of her wet thighs had him breathing harder. He wanted her so badly. Nava read him like an open book and picked up her pace.
“This is going to be over before it starts if you keep—” His breath stuttered.
She pushed forward and sucked him all in.
He pulled out of her eager mouth, colorful words escaping his lips before he wrapped his arms around her and lifted her with ease. His lips crashed over hers. “I want more than just your mouth.”
She bit his lower lip before her tongue soothed the sharp pain left behind, and his cock bobbed in response. He couldn’t let her go, even if he was damaged. “We have the entire night.”
In a whirlwind motion, he turned her around, and her eyes met the reflection. Every inch of her body was exposed, illuminated by the warmth of the fireplace.
Orion’s wings expanded, dark like the night outside. He hadn’t slept with many women. At first it had been difficult with his duties with the Society to find time to court anyone. Then it had become clear it was pointless to fall in love when his destiny would be chosen by someone else. Much like what had happened with everything in his life.
Then there were the dark, misted shapes that followed his every move. Not many were eager to deal with those. But this kind of attraction, the jealousy with Devon—or with himself—was something new. Too scary at times.
He pressed against her and brought his hand to her stomach, and his lips traveled to her neck once again. “Hold on to the mirror and bend over for me.”
The goose bumps that ran across her skin spurred him on. His body hummed with anticipation. He pushed down on her lower back as she followed his command, her round backside lining up just where he wanted it.
He settled behind her, digging into each side of her hips. His cock slid up and nuzzled at her entrance. To make a further point, Nava wiggled her hips. He kicked aside one of her legs, widening her stance, and pushed into her.
Orion dropped his head to her shoulder. His arms shaking, he held himself against the wall as a swarm of feelings and pleasure that hadn’t been there before took over him. Like his own, but different somehow.
A rush of moisture ran through her as he set a punishing pace. Her hands slid over the mirror with a screech.
The coil wound tighter with each passing second as he entered her, threatening to snap something within him. Nava’s legs trembled, but he held her, pushing her against the mirror fully. Her whole chest and torso slid over the slick surface, and his pace grew erratic.
Her breath caught in her throat, and then stars exploded behind his closed lids. A wave that shook him to his core had him emptying himself inside her.
They might have stood in that spot for seconds, minutes. When he opened his eyes, she grinned at him. And the burning heat that had accompanied him all day lowered to a simmer inside his gut.
He took a step back and couldn’t help but grin as she wobbled on her feet. Maybe he had fucked her good enough to have her forget the other man who shared his name and body but not his memories.
She turned and wrapped her arms around his neck before he kissed her.
“I hope you aren’t tired because I don’t think you’ll be sleeping much tonight.” He swept her off the ground.
