"Yes!" I breathed eagerly, pulling my fingers out and tracing them slowly up towards the entrance of her desire. Tempest looked down over herself and shuddered as her juices slipped down her wet slit onto the bench beneath us and glistened on my chin.

Tempest

"Beau," I whispered as he pushed me back on the bed and slid his cock back inside my spasming walls. My body shuddered as Beau's cock took ownership of me, immediately starting a new pulsing and aching sensation. I looked up to the night sky and saw the stars dancing above me like twinkling diamonds. My pulse quickened and my heart beat out a frantic tempo as he moved inside me, every movement stronger as if he were filling me with more than just pleasure. His cock seemed to grow even harder, throbbing deeply within me as my muscles began to contract around him.

"Tempest," Beau whispered in a husky and desperate voice. I could feel his need for me, and my heart ached. "I am so close."

"Yes," I agreed softly. "So am I." I had never felt so connected to another before. It was like I could feel his every heartbeat, breath, and movement inside of me.

"Fuck," Beau exclaimed as he thrust deeper while still holding me close, his chest pressed against mine and his talons digging into my back. "I'm going to give you all of me Tempest. Everything that I have."

"Ahh," I moaned, feeling my body start to shake. I held onto him tighter. "I give my everything to you as well." My fangs unable to be controlled, distended again seeking to claim what was rightfully mine as they sucked onto his neck. The taste of his blood sent me spiraling again.

With a moan, Beau came, filling me with every last drop of his strength and power. I pulled him tighter to me and kissed him ferociously. I could feel his blood in my veins, his cool energy pulsing through me. With a silent explosion, I felt the fire burst in my chest and spread through my body. My heartbeat against my ribs, pounding in time to Beau's heartbeat.

"Beau," I whispered, barely able to find the breath to speak. "Beau!"

"Tempest!" He grunted as he gripped my hips and pounded into me with abandon. I moaned again as I felt his cool cum fill me. I nuzzled my face into his neck and as I did, my flames cooled themselves and the steam that had been swirling around us settled into a gentle mist.

"You're mine now," Beau whispered as he held me against his chest, his cock still throbbing inside me.

Chapter 14

Beau

My body hummed in satisfaction as I carried Tempest through the palace walls, the residual mist of our gifts hiding us from the watchful eyes of those remaining after the ball. We had been away for a while completing our mating in the garden, and I'd never felt a connection like this before.

I had waited so long for this moment—to finally be with my true mate. Even as she slept, I could feel the connection between us growing stronger with each passing moment. Looking down at her as I walked through the halls, she was beautiful, even more so now that my mark was upon her. She was mine now, in every way possible. No one would ever take her away from me.

Finally, I reached my private quarters—a lavish suite fit for a king and queen in waiting. Gently, I laid Tempest down on the bed. I was filled with the urge to take care of her and protect her in all ways. I strode into the bath and turned on the hot water before picking up a thick fluffy washcloth. I knew that she must be sore after giving me her innocence.

Walking back into the room, I was captivated by her again. I leaned over Tempest, pulling away the remnants of her dress I had wrapped her in. My breath hitched at the beauty of her dark skin against the blue silk sheets, her thick hair spreading out like a halo around her. She looked so peaceful and beautiful, and I couldn't resist running my fingers through it before I spread her thighs to wash away the evidence of our love.

Tempest stirred, her eyes fluttering open as she looked up at me with love and contentment. "Beau," she said, her voice a soft sexy growl. "Mine."

My heart swelled with emotion. "Yours." I leaned down, pressing my lips to hers in a deep kiss. I reluctantly pulled away from her, so that I could return to the bath to do the same for myself. Coming back to the room I slid into the bed next to her, intending to give her time to rest, but she turned to me, her eyes glowing more red than black.

She kissed me fiercely, her arms wrapping tightly around me and pulling me closer to her. Her lips were warm, soft and sure as they pressed against mine. I kissed her back, completely losing myself in her embrace. Her mouth opened, letting me in deeper, and I groaned against her.

I felt her hands slide over my back as her nails dragged against me, sending a thrill of desire through my body. My heart beat faster with each stroke of her tongue against mine, and my cock ached for her touch.

I pulled back from her just enough that I could look into her eyes. They were still filled with the fiery glow of her passion. Her body was warm against mine and I could feel her heart slamming against her chest. The sheets had fallen away from her breasts, and I could see her dark brown nipples, stiff and pebbled.

I groaned in pleasure as my hands found their way to Tempest's sensitive breasts, my fingers lightly teasing her nipples. She arched her back into me, giving me more access, and I brought my lips down to meet hers.

My kisses trailed lower, and when I reached her center, I didn't hesitate, burying my face between her thighs, taking in all of her sweet flavor. Tempest gasped as I flicked my tongue over her clit, sending a swell of pride through my body.

She tangled her fingers in my hair, pulling me closer to her hot wet slit and I loved that she was taking control of her pleasure. I moved one hand from her nipple to wrap around her waist, pulling her closer to my face. As I continued pleasuring her, slipping two digits inside of her to pump in and out in time with my tongue, she grunted and groaned, pushing against me demanding more.

After she gushed all over my face and her juices ran down my chin again, I pulled away, crawling back up her body. I positioned myself between her legs, pressing myself inside of her already pulsing heat. Tempest gasped as I filled her, pushing into her over and over with each thrust building on the last one until we both reached our climax together in perfect harmony.

Afterward, I rolled over pulling Tempest into my arms, holding her close and kissing her forehead softly before relaxing together side by side. Her breathing eventually evened out, and a smile spread across her face when she opened eyes with a contented sigh. "That was- amazing," she whispered, and I couldn't help but agree with a nod of my head.

"It was…"

She turned her head, peeking at me from the corner of her eye. "It was almost as good as the garden."

I pulled away and stared at her, shock written all over my face as I tickled her sides. "Almost?"
