“Then take me now,” I breathed against his lips. “Fuck me exactly the way you want to, Trin.”

“Exactly?”

“Exactly. I don’t want to think about anything else but you.”

He moved far faster than I thought possible. Tentacles moving me, wrapping around my hips and holding fast. Four of them secured my legs, and the way he had them wrapped, I couldn’t move. Another arm grabbed a wrist and pulled it behind my back, and Trin gave it the other one with his human hand so my arms were immobile too.

I couldn’t pretend I hadn’t thought about this. When he pinned me open that first time, I’d imagined all the different ways he could use his form to tease me. And I couldn’t deny the need growing in my core. A desire for the namelesssomethingthat only he could give me.

Trin was leaning back on the bed, human arms propping him up while I was fully on display for him. His eyes roved over me, leaving a trail of heat behind him.

“I’m not sure you knew what you were getting into when you asked me that.”

“Or maybe I knew precisely what I was asking for.”

“Are you sure?” An arm looped itself around my neck, suckers pulling at my skin like he was using his mouth. It tilted my head back until I was staring at the ceiling. One more way of putting me where he wanted.

He had two tentacles left, and two human arms.Fuck, I couldn’t breathe, and it had nothing to do with the suction on my neck. Trin was overriding all the worries I had. Taking away every thought.

Slowly, a tentacle snaked across my ribs below my breasts. Then upward, until it settled directly over my nipples. The suckers were fucking perfectly placed, and it was no accident.

My nipples hardened under the suction until they ached, and it was so fucking good.

“Did you know, Meg, I can control each sucker individually?”

As if to demonstrate, both of the suckers on my nipplespulled, and I cursed, only to be cut off by the suction there too. “Trin.” My voice was a whisper.

“Breathe, Meg.”

“A little hard when you’re doing that.”

He chuckled. “What, this?”

A sucker landed directly from my clit, the one tentacle that wasn’t currently in use. It sucked in slow, luxurious pulses, like his mouth was slowly working it. Tasting like he had all the time in the fucking world.

Delicious agony.

“I could keep you here like this,” Trin teased. “Give you the longest, slowest, deepest orgasm imaginable. But I want to do that when I can feel every flutter of pleasure and how close you are to coming, so I can make sure youdon’t.”

I moaned. “I didn’t know you were a sadist.”

“Not a sadist. Just a monster who enjoys seeing his mate drift in pleasure.”

The sucker on my clit pulled hard before releasing me, moving down and slipping into me until I was full. There was no end to this arm. As much as I could take, he would give.

The suction inside?

“Oh. My. Fuck.” The sensation pushed me over the edge into a deep, shuddering orgasm just like he wanted. It erased any lingering pain and I feltbetter. I hadn’t even realized how run down I was until the burst of relief.

“Come here, mate.”

His arms lifted me without releasing me, the only change was him pulling the tentacle out of my pussy and bringing it back to my clit so he could pull me down onto his now-exposed cock. Long and smooth, he slid into me easily, drawing out the pleasure and making it bigger.

Trin released my arms, and I fell, bracing myself on his shoulders. “You don’t. Need. The venom.” My words came in gasps that made him grin. But there were little quakes still rippling through my body, and I needed more of this. My mate fucked me and I fucked him right back, rocking my hips and taking him as deep as I could.

I chased the feeling, finding the one spot that made me shake, and Trin didn’t have to feel me to see it and take over, driving into me and hitting the same spot I needed with unerring accuracy.

The tentacle around my neck moved and pushed me down to him so he could kiss me as I came, drenching his cock and crying out into the kiss. It was what I needed, and it was what unleashed Trin.
