Nix sets me on the brand-new leather sofa in our reading nook and drops between my spread thighs. “I need to taste you.” He tugs my hips to the edge and leans down to devour the wetness dripping from my center.
My knees shake as ecstasy overtakes me. He slides two fingers into my pussy and runs them around my sensitive inner walls. His pleasure mixes with mine in our combined thoughts and the sensations amplify. When he gently bites down on my clit, and whispers, “Come,” in my mind, I follow his orders.
When the lights finally quit dancing behind my closed eyelids, I find myself laying in our bed. “Nice of you to return to me.” Nix kisses his way up my chest, stopping to suck on each of my nipples. Another climax tingles at the base of my spine, but I hold it back, wanting to enjoy my mate.
“Now, I’m going to fuck you bowlegged.” I roll my eyes. His English accent pronouncing bowlegged makes me giggle.
My giggle turns into a moan as he presses his huge erection into my wet center. “Fuck me.” His heated growl tells me that my mate enjoys my dirty mouth.
His pounding thrusts nail me to the bed as I hold on to his shoulders to keep from slamming my head into our new ornate headboard. All too soon, the tingling moves from my toes straight up my legs, and I realize I’m going to come. I pull his head down and close my teeth over the vein pulsing in his neck, sending my mate over the edge with me.
Nix drops to his back and pulls me close. “I think my little goddess has some cougar floating around in there.” He smirks down at me.
“My mother would be happy to hear that. She’s always sworn both of us kids take after my dad.”
“Please, don’t bring up your parents while my cock is still pulsing from tearing up your pussy.” He fake shudders. “It messes with my performance.”
“Believe me. There is nothing wrong with your performance. If you performed any better, I’d walk with a permanent limp.”
“It’s a goal.” Nix kisses the side of my neck before showing me how he works toward his goals.
Chapter 10
Aurora
The next day, we leave for our weekend trip. When Nix refuses to tell me where we’re going, I try to find out by using the old “I need to know what to bring” excuse.
My mate sees through my attempt and responds, “You’ll be naked the whole time so don’t bring anything.”
I end up packing for just about anything. “I told you not to bring a lot.” Nix frowns when he sees my three suitcases sitting at the back door. “That won’t fit into my trunk.”
In the end, I leave one of the bags after Nix tells me we’re going to Blaze’s hunting cabin. His dragon stepbrother’s getaway in the woods sits on thirty acres of private land that borders Firestone Manor, the estate where Nix’s father and stepmother live. With the dense forest on one side, the family manor on the other, and a tree-lined pond making up the back of the property, we’ll have complete privacy at the dragon’s hideaway.
When we arrive, Nix takes me on a tour of the large open cabin. My inner interior designer drools over the beautifully decorated sunken living room with two massive leather sectionals. “Blaze and Anastasia, his mate, have a fucking huge brood,” Nix explains. “They reproduce like rabbits.” A little bit of fear cuts through me at the thought of my mate not wanting our offspring. Brushing away the worry, I tell myself to relax and enjoy the weekend.
After unpacking, Nix grills steaks on the back patio while I make baked potatoes and salad in the state-of-the-art kitchen. We finish up and clean the kitchen together before heading into the living room to watch a movie on the wall-sized flat screen.
Nix chooses a sappy romantic comedy, which makes me laugh. “Are you feeling like a little romance?” I tease my fae hottie.
“Well, since you asked.” My heart freezes in my chest when he slips off the sofa and kneels at my feet. “I’m hoping you’ll let me romance you for the rest of eternity.” He holds up a tiny blue box for me to see the huge diamond ring sitting in the velvet interior. “I realize this is a silly human tradition, but I want everyone in the universe to know you’re mine.”
“You want a human wedding?” I must make sure we’re on the same page.
“I need to fully mate you. In the eyes of the gods, humans, and shifters, I want everyone to know you belong to me for all eternity. The two of us forever.” He slides the ring on my finger before leaning down to place a kiss across my knuckles. “I don’t necessarily need the whole crazy human wedding thingy.” On that, we both agree.
