Chapter 59
CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE
We could have stayed at the Palace, but we wanted more privacy. Wolf closes the door to the hotel room and stalks across the room behind me, crowding me. He catches me around the waist. His breath feathers over my skin when he buries his nose in my hair. “You look fucking gorgeous tonight.”
“You’re not too shabby yourself, handsome.”
He shimmies the skirt of my tight black dress up and over my hips.
My skin goosebumps as he glides his fingertips around the curve of my butt.
The cuffs of his crisp white shirt brush deliciously against my skin as he strokes his fingers up and down.
“I’ve been dying to get you out of this dress for hours. ”
“What are you waiting for, then?”
“Good fucking question. I almost dragged you off to one of the million rooms in that place.”
I laugh and lean my head back against his strong chest. “I’m so glad this craziness is all over.”
When his fingers glide around and brush over my clit, he murmurs, “We’re just getting started.”
My hips naturally press back against him as he strokes me through my panties. “Ah, yes. That feels so good.”
As his fingers stroke me, gliding in slow circles, His other hand clasps my ass and squeezes. “I think I’ll spank this lovely cheek for aging me a lifetime today when you went over that cliff.”
When his hand strikes my skin hard enough to sting, but not hard enough to hurt, a delicious thrill reaches through me. “I’m not sorry if that’s my punishment.”
His laugh is dark. It sends a wave of lust rushing over my skin and right into the center of my pussy. “We can play that game sometime if you like, my lovely. I’d be glad to turn your beautiful ass pink with my handprints.”
Pressing my butt back against his thick erection, I whisper, “I’ll play any game you like, as long as you help put out this fire that you started.”
With rough hands, he jerks my dress up and totally off of me. A shiver dances over my skin as the cool air conditioned breeze touches my flesh. Wolf fists my hair and drags my mouth to his, over my shoulder. The kiss is scorching. Deep. It’s everything I need.
Reaching for my courage, I say, “I want you to take me and show me what it’s like to be yours. Only yours.” My pulse pounds in my throat as he goes perfectly still.
“Fuck, Princess. You know how to make a man crazy.” I reach back for him, stroking his length through the smooth, slick fabric of his dress pants.
A deep growl vibrates in his throat. Then he nudges me forward to the long seat that spans the end of the king-size bed.
“Bend over and put your hands on the bench.” He rasps as he plants a hand in the middle of my back and pushes me down until my butt is on display.
My breath trips up, as the skin on my body heats.
He crowds me again, pressing the ridge in his pants against my nearly naked ass.
I shiver when his finger dives under the edge of my thong and traces it down.
And down. Past the sensitive ring, along my slick folds, and down to my clit.
“Sexy kitten. I’ve obviously died and gone to some place decidedly naughty. ”
I’m unable to speak, to move, to do anything but try to breathe as his finger traces over me again, this time from front to back. I’m dripping wet. His fingertip spreads my juices all around. It’s the most wonderful feeling I’ve ever felt. Like every cell is alive and screaming for him.
Pushing my thong aside, he slowly rubs his thumb over my flesh, spreading me, exploring me. “Spread your legs.”
I instantly comply.
He drops to his knees behind me. I gasp when his mouth collides with my pussy. “Oh, god. Wolf!”
My world tilts as he devours me. Licking, nipping, sucking. Stroking every contour of me. I dig my fingers into the soft, plush fabric on the bench, holding on for dear life as I careen toward a release that I know will slay me.
As I get closer, my legs begin to shake. He doesn’t stop. He licks me deeper, harder, diving his tongue into my pussy. Then his fingers join. God. I can’t even understand what he’s doing, but it feels good. Sooo good.
“Ah. Ah. Ah. Yes. Ah.” I breathe and cry over and over again. And when his finger swirls around over the crazy sensitive ring of muscles at my rear, I go off like the dynamite did earlier today.
As I fall forward, he catches me, looping his arm around my waist. I have no idea when he shoved his pants down, but his bare cock pushes into my pussy.
With a half roar, he thrusts into me. “Mine. Tell me you’re mine, Kate,” he says as he drives his cock all the way home.
Deep into my core. Stretching me. Owning me.
My voice is weak, my knees totally gone. “Yours. I’m yours.”
He wraps me in his embrace, pressing one palm tight against my chest, just over my heart.
The other arm loops all the way around my hips, pulling me tighter and tighter and tighter against him.
He thrusts into me. “I want to fuck you harder, Kate. I can’t get this raging need inside of me under control tonight. ”
“Do it. Do it, Wolf.”
He scrapes his teeth against my ear. “Are you sure? I could hurt you.”
“I want it.”
His chest heaves against my back, and I know he’s fighting a war inside him. Digging my nails into his arm, I rasp out my want. “Give it to me, show me, Wolf.”
I feel the instant his resolve shifts. His whole body goes electric. He lifts me and tosses me into the middle of the bed.
My heart nearly bursts with a cocktail of excitement and uncertainty. I’ve never felt him this way.
He shoves me flat. “Red means stop. You hear me, Kate? You use that safeword and I stop, instantly.”
“I understand,” I reply shakily. I feel like a sizzling nerve ending from head to toe.
“Spread your legs, put your hands on your back.” Lying face down on the bed, I shimmy my legs apart and reach back. He roughly grabs my wrists in one hand. A thrill races through me, sending my heart rate to the moon. When he shoves my legs wider with his thighs, I nearly come on the spot.
I can’t hold back the whimper in my throat when he rams his thick head inside of me. And when he fists my hair, I’m totally done for. He tightens his grip on my arms and thrusts harder into me. “Yes, yes. Yessss,” I pant with every thrust.
Then I lose all control over my body. I know I’m shaking and moaning. But I have no control.
His thrusts grow deeper and harder. And I start to come, but it doesn’t stop like in the past. I’m falling, melting. Glowing. Evaporating.
Wolf’s pure animal. His powerful body flexing hard, over and over again, behind me. His burning hot erection is so, so deep inside of me. Marking me. Claiming me.
Over and over, his muscles bunch against my thighs and my back. The bite of his fingers on my wrist hurts deliciously.
I’m surrounded. Filled. Held. Loved.
And when I think I can’t possibly be anymore… I burst apart at the seams and become pure ecstasy.
Wolf releases me as soon as I come. Planting his hands on either side of my head, he slows his pace.
His body shudders hard as I lie panting below him.
Then I realize he’s coming. Slowly. A wave of energy pulses through him like a gigantic slow moving tide.
His breath rasps, and the air from his exhales brushes over my skin as he holds his cock perfectly still deep, deep inside of my core as his seed spils there.
It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever felt in my life.
Suddenly, I’m crying. All of the emotion of the day welling up and tearing its way right out of me.
Carefully, he lowers his weight onto me. When he turns my face toward his, he kisses me tenderly. “I love you. I’ve got you.”
I nod and sob at the same time.
His hand strokes through my hair. “It’s okay.”
“I’m sorry. I don’t know why I’m crying.”
“It’s just a release. A beautiful release. Just let it come.”
Another sob rocks my chest. He wraps me tighter in his arms, brushes his lips over my cheek, my temple, my neck.
I fall asleep just like that. Safe. Loved. And with my heart full of something I didn’t even know existed.
When I wake in the night, Wolf rolls over and pulls me close. He smiles against my cheek, scrubbing his whiskers against my skin. He says quietly, “So, I got off easy since I didn’t have to propose. Us men get all weirded out by asking the question.”
“You do?”
He chuckles. “Fuck yeah, we do. I mean, she could say no.”
I sigh and snuggle closer. “You’ll have to thank Nan for that one.”
“Actually, I will. But first, I need to do this.”
He pushes up on an elbow and flips on the light next to the bed.
I blink and rub my eyes. “Ouch. I wasn’t expecting that.”
“You’re also not expecting this either, I bet.”
He slides off the bed and kneels at the side. My hand flies to my mouth. “What in the world?”
“Give me your hand.”
Nervously, I extend my arm toward him.
Wolf slips the green meteorite ring off of my finger.
“I didn’t have a chance to get a ring for you yet, so we’ll just have to use this one for now.
I mean, between us flying all over the world, you getting kidnapped, me breaking into the palace twice, you falling off the island, and me blowing the shit out of that cliff. I’ve been a little tied up.”
My smile is so big it actually hurts. “I can understand your reasoning.”
“But the sentiment in what I’m about to do is just as good. I promise.”
I nod as tears spill over my lashes.
“Katalina, will you be my wife because you want to be, not because you have to be?”
I reach for him, running my fingers through his thick, blond hair. “Oh, Wolf. Yes. I will. I am honored to be your wife. I’d choose you gladly, any day.”
His eyes are dark with emotion as he slides the ring back on my finger. It glimmers in the light, emitting its magical, warm, green glow. It's truly a one of a kind now. Just like Wolf is. Beautiful. Mysterious. Special. Mine.
He raises my hand to his mouth and brushes a kiss over my knuckles. “I didn’t know I could love again. But you’ve proven that. Today, I realized that it would be impossible for me to get you out of my heart, even if you found that loophole to get out of the marriage.”
I shake my head. “I’m not looking for any loophole.”
“Good,” he says with simple finality as he climbs up onto the bed and scoops me in his arms. When he curls me up, spoon style and tosses the blankets back over us, I laugh. And when he turns off the light, I smile for a long time in the darkness. “This is going to be so much fun,” I whisper.
“Damned right it is.”
