“But it will be my word against the Hernandez pack, and I’m not a panther.”
“What you are is the one telling the truth, and that’s all that should matter to them.” Unable to help it, he stroked her hair away from her face and placed a reassuring kiss on her forehead. It was a tender gesture, too tender for someone like him who had sworn never to love, but tonight – tonight was a night filled with exceptions.
He had almost lost her, and just remembering what it felt like to lose her was enough to have his chest constrict with the most agonizing pain. Tomorrow, he would figure it out. Tomorrow, he would find a way to protect himself so he would never experience that kind of pain again.
But tonight—-
He held Calys’ face and rained kisses over it. “Don’t be afraid. You’re not supposed to be afraid of anything. You’re my little hellcat. My human monster.” His teasing words were rewarded by a smile, albeit fragile.
Alejandro traced her lips. “And I’m your Cavaliere. I will always protect you. Always.” When she didn’t say anything, only gazing at him with an odd look in her blue eyes, he asked, “Calys?”
She whispered, “I was thinking...you really sounded like a superhero—-”
A cross between a laugh and a groan escaped him just before he kissed her again. It was crazy, but her earnest belief in him was such a huge damn turn-on, his cock never failing to turn hard as a rock every time she looked at him and talked to him like he really was a damn superhero. His little hellcat cracked him up, and it was too damn sexy for him to resist.
As Alejandro kissed her, he ran his hands against her back and only remembered she had wings when she shuddered at the way her feathers brushed against his fingers. He stroked them, softly, leisurely, and each time he did, she shuddered in her arms.
“Is it that sensitive?” he whispered against her lips.
“Y-yes...” But as soon as she said it, her wings were folding back, inch by inch, until they were once more a part of her skin.
He chuckled, knowing why she had done it. “Spoilsport.” But if she thought he wouldn’t be able to drive her crazy even without her wings, she was wrong. And she would know it soon enough.
Alejandro undressed her as his lips moved down her body, whisking her top off her head before nuzzling her neck. He cupped her breasts, loving its heavy weight, and bit her nipples before unclasping her bra. Tossing it to the floor, he went back to her nipple, sucking on it so hard it made Calys clutch his head with a whimper.
He moved further down, leaving a wet trail on her skin and pausing when he reached her pants.
The sudden lack of action had Calys blinking in bewilderment at him. “Alejandro?”
But still he waited.
She began to writhe, her lovely face showing how unbearable she found it to wait for his touch. “Alejandro, please.”
“Please what?” In the back of his mind, he knew he was being unfair. But he no longer cared. She had to be his. Tonight.
Her eyes were wide with frustration as they met his. “Please,” she begged again.
Holding her gaze captive, he slowly unbuttoned her pants and pulled it off. A shiver racked her body as he ran his hands down her bare legs. She shivered and shivered as he caressed her knees and brushed the inside of her thighs with his fingers.
When he bent his head down to lick her satin-covered folds, her legs fell open involuntarily. Calys moaned his name, again and again, before becoming incoherent with pleasure as he licked her hard and practically ground his mouth against her sweet wet flesh.
When he lifted his head, she let out a whimper of protest. “Please.”
Again, he demanded, “Please what?”
Her dazed eyes found his. “Please,” she whispered. Writhing under him, her hips lifting off the bed in search of his mouth, she looked at him and begged, “Please...take me.”
They were exactly the words he needed to hear.
With a growl of pleasure, he went back up to settle his body fully on top of hers. Both of them reacted strongly to the feel of their bare skin against each other. She gasped, her eyes becoming dilated with pleasure, her hands clutching his shoulders hard. Alejandro was caught in the same maelstrom of sensual bliss, his body becoming painfully taut with arousal.
Kissing her, he worked determinedly on making Calys lose her mind in pleasure. It was essential, the only way to ease her pain once he took her virginity. He kneaded her breasts, and when they became heavier with her need for him, that was when he bent down to take a sweet nipple into his mouth, one at a time. He sucked them lovingly, passionately, and when she started to writhe again, he nipped the pointed flesh between his teeth with just the right amount of strength – just enough to make her gasp his name.
