“Fuck, you’re perfect.” The hand cradling my head angles it, his mouth descending on mine. This kiss is possessive and hungry; he consumes me while his hips snap with force this time. So hard he moves me, my back sliding across the grass, and he follows, never pausing his strokes.

Now, he rides me fast and hard. It’s a painful pleasure, sharp and intoxicating, holding me captive in a moment that I know will change everything.

I can’t stop it. Don’t want it to end.

All I can do is hold on tight, my thighs wrapping around his hips while my fingernails find purchase on his sides, breaking skin across his ribcage as he claims me. He’s all I see and understand.

“So close. Gods, I’m close.” His response is a hiss through clenched teeth; satisfaction resonates from him. It strums between his body and mine, and I’m in awe of it. As if there’s an invisible string connecting us.

I’m a part of him, as he is a part of me.

A revelation that shocks me, and I cry out, trying to speak, but nothing intelligible comes out. I’m reduced to moans and whimpers—the needy sound of a female lost in nirvana. Nothing could feel better than this...

But then I’m flipped onto my hands and knees, his large frame covering mine. I have no strength to raise my hips. I’m a mess of shaky limbs, and Kai chuckles at the sight.

Knees part mine to accommodate him, my legs forced up until I’m exposed and my wetness is dripping onto the grass below. There are leaves in my hair, specks of dirt on my skin, and yet I’ve never felt more beautiful.

“Fuck, sweetheart. Your blood looks good on my cock,” he groans, and the sound of skin on skin, a slowfappingsound, greets my ears. My head snaps to the side, and I meet his honeyed eyes over my shoulder. Stroking himself, his heated gaze roams from my face to where I need him most. “It’s a privilege to be your first, and you mine. No woman before you, and there will be no one after, Nerissa. I’m yours.”

“Mine.” Possessive. That’s what I feel toward him at the moment, as if I’d kill anyone who touched him.He’s the enemy?—

With our stares locked, he strokes twice, a movement I follow before notching himself at my entrance. Then he slams back in, his hold tight, and I know there’ll be some bruising.

Moreover, I’m grateful that my mermaid abilities will heal me quickly, but for a few hours, I’ll revel in each dark circle where his fingers or claws dug in.

His pace is hard and brutal, fucking me into the ground with deep pumps, each deep stroke driving his thick head againstthat tender spot, one that causes electrical pulses to fire across my processors. It’s heaven and hell; I’m chasing the feeling and want it harder, a silent demand he answers.

I try to brace my arms but fail, once, twice, before his body fully covers mine until there isn’t an inch of me not blanketed. “Yes. Oh Gods, yes.”

“Not a god, little treasure. I’m your alpha.” Another brutal punch of his hips, and his unoccupied hand grips my hair. He gathers the long strands in his fist, tightening his hold before turning my face. “That’s it, Nerissa. Tighten around my cock...let me feel you break for me.”

The moon is high and the trees filter its light, leaving behind a soft shimmer that cloaks us in secrecy. Out here, it’s just us, and I’m at peace under him.

These sensations are new and overwhelming, a little painful, yet it's the feel of his teeth at the back of my neck that causes me to freeze. My muscles clench tight. My breath catches in my throat. And when he breaks the surface of my skin, not a full bite, but a tear, I come for him.

For a second, I’m blinded by the waves of bliss coursing through me. They’re not gentle or soft, each burying me in a sea of heightened bliss and an awakening I can’t undo.

“That’s it. Take my cock like a good girl, Nerissa.” Kai’s gritted demands are accompanied by three sharp punches of his hips, forcing me to take every solid inch, but not his knot. That sits outside my opening, throbbing against my sensitive skin, tearing a scream from my throat. The feel of him there, how the bulge pulses, sends the ripple of another orgasm through me, and this time, Kai follows.

I’m filled and dripping, each spurt longer than the last, and he’s not done.

Exhaustion settles in while he continues to slip in and out slowly, draining every last drop until finally settling in andturning us to our sides so I’m not crushed. His length jerks a few times, now and then there’s a smaller dribble of come, and I close my eyes, savoring the moment.

Tomorrow will come with plenty of problems, but for now, I give in and let the feel of his warm body lull me into sleep.

The last words I hear before succumbing tug a small smile from me...

“Let’s get you cleaned up and tucked in, little treasure. Because in one hour, I’ll make you my dirty girl all over again.”

KAI

Alpha, we’re under attack!

I’m pulled from my sleep by the sudden shout in my head. For a moment, I’m disoriented, inside a room I’m not familiar with, but then her scent hits me. Orange blossoms, coconut—me. My scent is all over the wondrous creature beside me, her face peaceful in her slumber.

Then again, she hasn’t had much time to rest.
