“Is he mad or not?”Cord asked, lying his furry belly flat against my back for a second before shifting back into his human form.

“He’s not mad. He’s just not that much of a morning person. He likes kids too. He’s great with the littles back home. Between us we could probably start a pre-k/kindergarten soccer team.

“Huh? You have kids?” Cord asked, leaning his head over my shoulder to meet my gaze.

“No and certainly not with my cousin. Our parents – mine and his – are still having kids. So, we have a lot of siblings. All of them younger than me we just call the littles – even when they’re not so little anymore.”

“Good. I was worried.”

“Really? That I had kids with Duke?” I let out a sleepy laugh that I couldn’t hold back.

“No, that you had kids, and you didn’t bring them with you. The kid part I could deal with. The leaving them behind would make me worry.”

“I probably wouldn’t have agreed to drive Del and Rex out here if I had a kid at home,” I admitted.

“Good. Once you’re a sire you can’t be running off without them,” he said, and the words hung between us for a long second. “I didn’t mean you can’t go looking for the magic you’re missing out on. I didn’t mean it that way. I’ll go with you when the kids are older. I just meant --- Hell, I’m not sure what I meant. Being this close to you makes it hard to think.”

“I can help you with the hardest part of this new magic,” I smirked.

Cord’s dick was hard and pressing against my back. I was hard too but blamed it on morning wood until Cord started rolling around on top of me. His scent surrounded me – sweet, tangy, and leaving me wanting more. Though, I’d wanted more since I first scented him yesterday at the meeting hall.

“And what do you think the hardest part is?” Cord whispered in my ear.

“Would you prefer I help you with the slickest part of this magic?” I asked, letting my magic trail over his back down to his ass.

“Stop that!” He gasped.

“Ok—”

“Don’t actually stop. You just scared me!” He laughed, a little breathless.

“Sorry, mate,” I smirked.

“No, you’re not, but do it again and I might forgive you,” Cord said.

“Whatever you want, mate.”

Chapter Twenty

Cord

I should’ve known when Blithe said ‘whatever I wanted’ that I was in the best sort of trouble. His magic squeezed me, brushing against my magic and touching my flesh as if he’d grown extra hands. I witnessed his tendrils reaching out the day before, but this was different. They weren’t chasing me or trying to slip away from Duke.

That early–but-not-so-early-morning they caressed me. They traversed my back and legs wrapping around my calves as if I might run away before they finished with me. Blithe’s magical grip kneaded into my ass and slid between my cheeks. I sighed into his shoulder blade as his magic found out just how slick I was.

After lulling me into a grinding, needy mess, Blithe moved with the speed only vampires were said to have. In a blink, he was out from under me and on top of me, reversing out positions. I mewed, the sound escaping my lips before I could stop it. Without much effort, Blithe aligned his hips with my ass. His hard dick pressed between my cheeks, ignoring the fabric between our bodies. He kissed the back of my neck – once, twice, and then his hand slid around to cup my chin as he’d done the day before to hold my attention. I opened my mouth, ready to tell him his magical foreplay and hard dick pressing so close to exactly where I wanted was more than enough to keep my attention.

Then he licked the back of my neck and my cat cocked his head. I swallowed hard as the flat of Blithe’s tongue licked down the back of my neck again. I rocked my hips between his hard dick and the bed as a cascade of tingles danced down my spine.Next came his fangs – not for biting or blood, but little love nips that scraped his teeth across my flesh. Pushing my shirt aside he kissed my bare shoulder, tonguing his way to my squishy claiming gland. I tensed, ready to tell him to knock it off until I had my wards, but he stopped short and turned his attention back to my neck.

“I haven’t forgotten. You’re alluring. Everything about you draws me in, but I haven’t forgotten my promise,” he said, thrusting his hips forward and sliding his hard dick against my ass.

I mewed again, the sound morphing into a needy whimper deep within my throat.

“Don’t stop with your hips,” I managed to say, pushing back against him again. “And don’t let go of me.”

“I love that you know what you want,” he growled against the back of my neck.

“I want you. I want this,” I whispered. “More than this – but this will do for now.”
