Chapter 7
Chapter Seven
Veryn
Ember’s back hits the wall just inside the back door of my apartment. She’s so wet, her scent is everywhere, and it’s driving my dragon insane.
Our tongues meet in a frantic open-mouth kiss that makes our teeth clash.
I try to rein in my dragon, but he growls, and the wall behind Ember’s head lights up with his yellowish-green glow.
My jeans hang open, falling down my ass as I slam her back against the wall even harder.
I’m not sure why he’s convinced she’s going to try to escape, but I let him have that because she really enjoys being caged in.
I need about three more hands to be able to touch all the things I ache to touch.
Ember reaches between us, teasing her clit.
I use the wall as leverage to keep her upright as I pull both her arms above her head, pinning her wrists together in one of my hands.
I bring the other between us, circling her clit and trying to get the pattern just right. Her hips shimmy from side to side, making her thighs jiggle, and my dragon sends me images of what he thinks our bite would look like in her soft flesh.
“No more teasing,” she whimpers, her top half curling off the wall and toward mine. “Please? I ache for you.”
“Keep these here.” I pat her hands, reach back to pull my shirt off, and toss it away carelessly as I move to tug her dress off next. I couldn’t guess where it lands, either, because her tits bounce with every ragged breath she draws in.
Ember is tall for a female, but our height difference still makes it impossible for me to capture one of her tight nipples between my teeth. At least, if I want to slide inside her.
The way she keeps her arms pinned above her head while wiggling her back against the wall in an attempt to scoot lower would make me laugh if I wasn’t so jacked up. Her feet dig into my ass, and I finally gather my wits enough to dip my head to kiss her once again.
I grab her tit, cupping it and pinching the nipple.
She moans against my lips while I move to fist my cock. The tip bumps around her slick lower lips. I’m pretty sure she’s actually dripping.
“You’re so hot.” Her head bounces against the wall as she pulls back. “Seriously sexy. Please, I just want you inside me.”
Your mate needs you, and you’re hesitating, my dragon chastises in my mind. He begins to struggle for control, but I know that bastard well enough to understand that, the first chance he gets, he’s trying his luck and biting her.
I notch at her opening and thrust inside.
The warm, wet heat of her inner walls stretching around me takes my breath away.
I’m still in my jeans and boots.
So much for trying to be a gentleman.
Dammit.
I really wanted tonight to be special, to show her how much she means to me outside of sex.
Ember pulls her arms down, wrapping one around my neck. Her other hand lands on my jaw, caressing my stubble. “I need you to fuck me.” Her head bobbles up and down, making her hair fall around her face. “Deep. Hard. Whatever. You get the idea.”
I capture her swollen lips, and her back bounces around the wall as I grind up into her. She leaks around my throbbing length, and I’m grateful I came down her throat, or I’d probably embarrass myself before we even really get started.
I move my hands to her ass and use my hold to help slam her deeper on the next thrust.
“Fuck,” I groan and try to keep my wits about me as I work on making her scream. “Give me more of that sweet begging.” It’s like a drug to know I’m managing to satisfy her. Also, I don’t have much experience, so those vocalizations help me know when I’m getting something right.
Begging moans spill out of her lips as she dives in for another kiss.
Her pheromones flood the air, making my head foggy and my legs shake as I swim in her scent.
The hazier I get, the more my dragon tries to fight for control.
He’s always like this.
Every time Ember and I are together, it’s like I can barely relax because I have to ensure he doesn’t do something stupid.
Dragons, like orcs and a few other species, slip into rut if we’re not careful. It’s a hypersexual state where our system aches to breed our mate. I’ve never gotten close before, but something in Ember’s scent has been hitting differently the last week or two.
Tugging her off the wall, I lift and drop her onto my cock as I aim for my bedroom. This place isn’t huge, and that’s a good thing, since we make it there quicker. Everything in me wants to follow her down to the mattress, but I’m still in my fucking boots.
It takes a whole lot of willpower to pull her off my length, but I manage. Dropping her on the bed, I lick my lips as her tits bounce. I can taste hints of my cum from our many kisses, and it fills me with pure male satisfaction.
Ember scoots back, using her forearms and feet, until her head lands on the pillow.
Where the hell did her shoes end up?
Who the hell cares?
I stretch down, loosening my boots, but my gaze stays on her. Her pink nipples tighten as her chest bounces with each ragged breath.
She sees me watching and lets her knees fall to the mattress. Every inch of her slick pussy becomes visible with the move.
A low growl rattles out of my chest as I kick out of my boots and haphazardly shove my jeans until they pool at my feet. My cock bounces around, and I wrap my fist around it, quirking an eyebrow.
“You’re already giving me a peek, but I wanna see how you tease your pussy.”
She huffs, falling back against the pillow. “Why do you torment me?”
I snort.
She’s fucking adorable, if a little dramatic. Keeping my fist around my dick, I stretch over the bed.
My palm comes to rest next to her hip, and I blow hot breath over her slick, pink pussy.
“Do you know how bad I ache for you, Ember? It’s an all-the-time kinda thing. If I’m not with you, my dragon won’t shut the fuck up. What do you think Ember is doing? Is she safe? Does she miss us as much as we miss her?” My wings erupt from my back, stretching wide across the room.
Ember gasps, blinking up at me with hazy eyes.
I shake off the discomfort of the partial shift and pull my tail around to allow it to slither up her thigh. My eyes change to the dragon’s, and the room illuminates with a yellowy-green glow.
Taking a deep breath, I shake my head and try to push him down. Nothing good comes from him taking the wheel.
“Mine.” The word comes from my lips, but it’s my dragon in control. “He keeps us apart, and I don’t like it.”
Ember’s head tilts, and she licks her lips. “You mean Veryn?”
“Yes.” He teases our tail into her lower lips.
She jolts, pushing up on her forearms. “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen your tail.”
“You know better than to fear me. Don’t you, mate?” he asks.
“I’m not afraid of either of you.” She stares directly into his eyes as she says it, despite how much of his dominance he’s forcing through his gaze.
He’s quite smug as he pulls his tail from her pussy, bringing it to my mouth.
It’s always complicated, because even though we’re one being, I think of certain attributes as his and some as mine. To make things even more convoluted, occasionally they’re “ours.”
My head falls back as he forces her taste all over my tongue.
“Ass up,” I hear him command. “If you want to be fucked deep, show me that pretty ass.”
Ember blinks for several long seconds before scrambling backward. She rolls over gracefully, and I crawl onto the end of the bed as she hikes herself up on her hands and knees.
You better take her before I do, the dragon growls in my mind.
I crawl up behind her, skimming my hands over her ass.
My cock slaps against her skin, leaving a sticky trail of pre-cum in its wake. Stretching out over her, I pull her hair to the side. I feel like I’m walking a tightrope. One wrong move, and my dragon will take over.
He forces his tail to wrap around her and begins to tease her clit.
“Beg for my cock if you want it,” I say against her cheek.
Ember shivers, and her eyes light amber with her wolf as she looks back at me over her shoulder. “I need you. Please?”
“You need what?” I hold myself up on one palm and move to fist my shaft with the other.
“I need to feel you stretch me out…” Her face falls to rest against the pillow as I position myself at her opening. “Just get inside me, please.”
My tail continues to tease her clit, but it’s not like using my fingers, so the entire area is drenched to the point I’m not afraid of hurting her.
I work my hips, slamming inside her.
Nothing in the world could ever compare to the feeling of her stretching around my crown. She’s already so slick, and she forces her hips back to meet mine as she rocks on her knees.
“You’re greedy for me. Aren’t you, baby?” I growl as my head tilts to see her face.
She’s mostly buried in the pillow, but she twists to the side until I can see her profile. “I think I’m ready to try the whole knotting thing.”
It’s something we’ve talked about but haven’t tackled just yet.
I pull back until I’m kneeling behind her. “We’ve got a whole lot of dick left to force inside you if you think you want my knot.”
“Then, try harder!”
I surge forward, using her hips as leverage.
Her sassy mouth disappears, replaced with begging and a lot of praising my efforts.
I’m torn between wanting to study her face and watching where I disappear inside her. Her sweet scent floods the air as her face rolls around the pillow.
My dragon is intrigued. He wants to see what those expressions look like up close and personal. He abandons her clit to wrap his tail around her middle.
My wings stretch wide to keep us balanced as he tugs her up until her back meets my chest.
Ember groans, wiggling around on her knees. “That actually might be too much. I think I can feel you in the approximate location of my diaphragm.”
I take over the use of our tail and hold her just under her tits. My hand relocates to swipe her hair back from her face, and I note how warm her skin feels to the touch.
