When he leaned his face closer so that his nose was almost touching the gusset of her panties, he inhaled long and slow.
Jezebel trembled as he pulled her a few inches closer, dipped his fingers under the satin at her bottom, and kissed her mound over the lace.
She wasn’t sure how long she held her breath by the time he tucked his thumbs under the sides of her panties and pulled them down her body. She stepped out, barely managing to maintain her balance.
Arion’s breath hitched as he stared at her exposed mons. Suddenly, he rose, swooped her into his arms, and carried her out of the bathroom.
She gasped. “Where are you going?”
He tugged the comforter down his bed with one hand before lowering her gently onto the sheet. “The bath can wait,” he murmured. “I need to see more of you. I can’t help myself.”
After arranging her how he wanted her, sideways on the mattress, he lifted her hands over her head and pressed them against the sheet. “Leave your hands here, Little mate,” he demanded.
She hoped she could obey him.
She whimpered as his fingers grazed down her inner arms and then across her breasts. She tried to remain still, worried he would be mad if she moved, but it was too hard. She was antsy and couldn’t keep from arching her chest off the bed as he thumbed her nipples.
He didn’t linger though. His hands slid lower until he palmed her thighs and guided them open. “Bend your knees, Bella,” he murmured. “Let your legs open wide for me. I need to see you.”
She was trembling, unable to understand or process all the feelings, but she managed to part her knees for him even though it seemed like something very naughty and forbidden.
Arion held her open, his gaze on her most private parts. His thumbs danced along the edges. “Your pussy is bare,” he commented.
She sucked in a breath.
He glanced at her, a question in his eyes.
She licked her lips, finding her words. “My mother removed the hair a few days ago. She said you would like it this way.” Her voice trembled. Did he hate it?
He gave her a lazy smile. “You’re so beautiful, Little mate. Your mother was wise. I probably would have removed it myself tonight. I want your pussy smooth and exposed to me.”
Thank goodness. She let out a long exhale, but stopped breathing again when he kissed her mound, shocking her.
“Daddy…”
“No secrets, remember?” He kissed her there again. Between her legs. He inhaled deeply too, smelling her. And then his lips parted and he flicked his tongue over a spot that made her nearly jump off the bed.
Arion was grinning as he rose off her and began to unbutton his shirt. “Don’t move, Bella. Not an inch.”
She was panting.
“I won’t take off my pants. I promise. Just my shirt. I want to feel my chest against yours. I want to make you feel good so you’ll know how it’s going to be between us.”
She licked her lips as he revealed his chest. She didn’t have brothers, and her father didn’t wander around the house without a shirt on, so she wasn’t overly familiar with the male body. Not even the chest.
The valley where she’d spent her entire life was a modest community. She knew this because they were taught about it in school. Boys didn’t wander around shirtless.
Arion’s chest was chiseled and hard in contrast with her softness. She wasn’t sure what she’d expected, but he was so broad and strong. His muscles bulged. She shouldn’t be surprised. After all, he was an Alpha Protector. They didn’t come in size small.
Arion set his hands on either side of her and met her gaze. “I want to tell you something, Bella. I think it will ease your mind a bit.”
She nodded acceptance.
“Your body is the first one I’ve ever seen or touched in the flesh too.”
Her eyes shot wide open. She hadn’t expected that. “Really?”
“Yes. Most of my people save ourselves for our mate the same as she does for us, with one possible exception.”
She couldn’t breathe. What exception?
He lifted one hand and lowered his gaze as he circled a nipple, making her whimper and arch. “Have you ever played with these pretty little buds, Bella?”
She shook her head. “No, Daddy.” Her mother had told her years ago that she should save all her exploration for her intended mate. Let him provide her first pleasure.
His finger grazed down her body, stopping at that throbbing bundle of nerves he’d touched before. “What about your pussy, Bella? Have you played with this little clit before? Have you pushed your fingers up inside your tight channel?”
Her face heated a thousand degrees as she shook her head.
“I wouldn’t blame you, nor would I be mad, Little mate. I know it would have been hard to ignore the curiosity. I’m just asking so I’ll know.”
