“Maybe if we laid on the same side and uh, closer together?” Mia suggested. She didn’t know where the idea had come from—the words had come out of her mouth before she thought about them.
“What? Like what you humans call ‘spooning’?” Sev asked doubtfully.
“I guess so.” Mia bit her lip. “Uh, I guess you’d be the ‘big spoon’ since you’re so much bigger than me.”
“The ‘big spoon’?” Sev frowned.
“You know—the one in the back?” Mia made a motion with her hands, cupping one with the other, trying to illustrate.
“Well…we can try I guess,” Sev said. “I mean, if you want to.”
“I want to do anything that keeps me warm,” Mia told him. She lay back down again on her right side. “If you don’t mind?” she asked, turning her head to look at the big Kindred.
Sev shrugged.
“I’m afraid you’re the one who’s going to mind. But we can try it.”
He lay down behind her and scooted close, pulling the sheets and covers up over both of them.
At first it was pure heaven. Mia found she liked having his big body cupping her much smaller frame. He was so warm it stopped her shivering at once and the blankets fit much better when they were lying on the same side close together. Her partner’s warm, spicy scent surrounded her, making her want to get even closer to him. She scooted her hips back…and felt something hot and hard and enormous poking her in the ass.
“Oops—fucking sorry,” Sev muttered in her ear. “Can’t help it—you smell so damn good and you look fucking incredible in that nightshirt.”
“Oh, well…” Mia wasn’t sure what to say. She’d given Sev a hard-on? Maybe he liked big breasts, because she couldn’t imagine her too-large hips and ass turning anyone on.
“I’ll lay on my back—put some space between us,” Sev murmured. He started to turn but Mia put a hand out to stop him.
“No, don’t,” she blurted.
“Don’t? I’m poking you in the ass with my shaft, Mia and there’s no way it’s going down—not as long as I’m close to your luscious, curvy body,” he growled, his breath hot in her ear.
“Curvy? I…I’m too big,” Mia blurted. “Michael always said so.”
“Your ex-mate was a fool—we’ve already established that,” he told her impatiently. “You’re an Elite, Mia—a female the Goddess had blessed with extra curves. Any male would be lucky to have you, just the way you are.”
“Sev…” She turned her head to see that he was looking at her with an intense look in his golden eyes.
“Sorry—just telling it like I see it,” he rumbled. “Hope I didn’t offend you, baby.”
“No. No…you didn’t.” Mia wished her voice wouldn’t come out so breathless. “Look, you don’t have to turn over on your back,” she said, going back to their earlier topic. “It…it doesn’t bother me if you, you know, poke me some. I mean, it’s a natural reaction, right? No big deal.”
Sev looked at her uncertainly.
“You’re sure about that?”
Mia shrugged and tried to look nonchalant, even though she could feel her cheeks heating with a blush.
“Sure, I’m sure. I just want to keep warm—it’s freaking cold in here!”
To prove her point, she turned away and pushed back against him, deliberately making contact with his long, hard shaft this time.
Sev groaned and then his long arms came around and pulled her even closer to him as he completely surrounded her small body with his much larger one. His shaft was pressed right into the cleft of her ass and Mia moaned and tried not to wiggle against it, though she couldn’t help twitching her hips just a little.
“There,” she said breathlessly. “Now, isn’t this nice? It’s, uh, cozy.”
“Yeah, real fucking cozy.” Sev’s voice was slightly hoarse.
It occurred randomly to Mia that her partner had been swearing a lot more since they had taken this assignment—so had she, for that matter. They both needed to lay off it though—if the PPP was anything like her old sect, they weren’t going to take kindly to cursing.
Of course, they wouldn’t have approved of her snuggling up so intimately with a man who wasn’t her husband, either, she thought randomly. God, was his cock twitching now? He felt so big back there—was the nightshirt even covering her or had it ridden up? Was her partner pressed against her bare ass with nothing but the ultra thin material of his sleep trousers to separate them?
“What are we going to do about the light?” she asked. Her thoughts were everywhere and she was afraid what she was feeling and thinking might show on her face. Darkness was better—safer.
“Oh right—the lights.” Sev cleared his throat and raised his voice. “Lights off,” he said in an authoritative tone.
At once the lights flicked off, leaving them in almost complete darkness. Just a tiny bit of what looked like moonlight, but was actually just the light of the dimmed, artificial sun, came in through the window.
