His hands scrambled at the buttons of my blouse and slipped my bra aside so he could get at my pert nipples.
He groaned deeply as he squeezed them, pressing himself and his bulging cock in the front of his pants like a loaded blaster pistol against me.
I could feel his every inch.
Every intimidating inch.
Once again, I knew I would have a challenge on my hands to get him to fit inside me…
And relished the thought of it.
He pulled back only for a moment and looked down at me, his eyes misty and distant with longing.
He managed to whisper four simple words in my ear:
“Do you want this?”
I was surprised he had the strength to mutter such a thing as it risked me turning him down.
Instead, it had the opposite effect, and I wanted himeven more.
“Yes,” I said. “Yes. I want you. I’ve wanted you ever since I first saw you.”
I was surprised at the passion of my own words and even more by how much I truly meant them.
Ididdesire him.
Ihadwanted him ever since I first saw him.
Now, I would have him.
And there wasn’t a thing anyone could do to stop us.
He buried his passionate lips on me once more and set to slowly undressing me.
Over his shoulder, I spotted the perfect pool of glass-like water, the billowing cloud of blood having already dissipated.
But my memory of what had transpired there would never dissolve so easily.
It would remain with me for as long as I drew breath.
The monster that had come from the depths had terrified me to the core of my being.
From the moment it latched onto my leg to the moment I witnessed the bursts of blood like the pulses of a geyser at Yellowstone National Park, I had feared for my — and Uhti’s — life.
I was more relieved than I could put into words when I saw Uhti emerge from the bloodied pool.
I had feared it had beenhisblood that sullied the pristine lake.
I had hurled my arms around his neck and drew him in close, and suddenly all social barriers blocking us from being together faded.
My lips pressed against the cool scales of his natural armor plating.
Was that the real reason we were suddenly so passionate with each other? I wondered.
That we had each seen our lives flashing before our eyes and knew we needed to be together?
Even if it only lasted this moment?
