Chapter Ten #5
The primal need for the woman in his arms tore through him—an overwhelming sensation he’d spent his life denying he could feel. It was a wildness inside him that had nothing to do with his inner beast. It was all him. This barbaric urge to claim his woman and damn anything else.
But he fought the urge. Now wasn’t the time to become some mindless animal bent on conquering the woman in his arms. This courageous, bold woman deserved so much more than a quick tumble from someone acting like a bumbling youth.
“My love, you have no idea what you do to me,” Azazel confessed, putting his forehead to hers.
“I have always been the inviolable one, a peaceful man who feared no one and maintained his calm in any situation.” He licked his lips.
“But one look at you, and I melt inside. I never knew I’d feel as strong as this about someone.
I not only crave to join my body with yours, but my heart is also full for the first time in my life.
” He swallowed and ignored the rush of heat creeping up his neck.
“I confess I’ve always been lonely. But now…
now for the first time, I feel like I’ve found a part of myself that was missing.
” He huffed. “Ezeru! It’s so hard to express the right words to let you know what you truly mean to me. ”
Toni’s eyelids lowered. Smiling, she wrapped her arms around his neck.
“I don’t need words, Azazel. Even though I love hearing you say them.
” She put one of her palms over his chest, where his heart thundered.
“But I can sense how you feel here.” She leaned in and kissed him, a languorous and sultry kiss of seduction before she pulled back.
“Never doubt that I feel the same way.” Her half-lidded eyes studied where she petted him.
“I warn you”—her voice lowered with a steady tone—“once we do this, you’ll never get rid of me. ”
Her sultry grin warmed him.
“One thing I can promise you is you’ll never know the meaning of ‘being alone’ ever again.”
Azazel’s shoulders relaxed. “Thank the Goddess,” he declared. “I’m looking forward to being with you, no matter where the future leads us. For us, there’s no going back.”
He propped himself on his elbow to look into her eyes.
When Toni leaned in, his attention was drawn to her swaying breasts.
“No going back.” She caressed the side of his face.
Toni grinned as the man in her arms focused on her chest. “Azazel—” She traced her hand across his scruffy jawline. “—why do I feel like you aren’t paying attention to what I’m saying?” She put her forefinger under his chin and lifted his head for his eyes to meet hers. “Look at me… not my boobs.”
“But I can’t help it,” he murmured, his dark eyes roaming back to her chest, making her nipples pucker in response. “You’re so distracting.”
Toni ran her trembling fingers through Azazel’s long hair as he helped himself to those quivering mounds, licking first one nipple, then the other. When he tugged her pebbled tips with his blunt teeth, her breath came out in ragged gasps.
He drew her sensitive skin into the blazing inferno of his mouth.
She let out a rough moan.
Through half-lidded eyes, she feasted on the sight of him as his mouth devoured her bosom.
“I love watching you do that,” she confessed. “It’s the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen.”
After one savage graze of his teeth against her sensitive skin, she threw her head back and squeezed her eyes shut to surrender to the sensation.
With her eyes closed, the raging passion inside her rose.
Her emotions joined with his, allowing her to experience his building hunger as well as her own.
His every touch, every lick, drove her passion into something tangible and unique.
The pull of his mouth on her feverish skin expanded her carnal hunger.
With each swipe, he sent a nuclear charge to her sex, dampening and tightening the core between her legs, creating a torrent of cream between her thighs.
He pulled away, his stare intense and direct.
She became lost in the mahogany depths of his eyes. Her breath caught at the sight of the masculine possession stamped there. A man who was the embodiment of desire itself—intent on unleashing every wicked plan he’d been saving just for her.
The slumbering sensuality on his expression made something snap inside her.
She pulled away from him and pushed on his chest to make him lie on his back.
Not wasting any time, she threw her leg over his trim hips and straddled him, settling her core against his firm stomach.
Leaning down, she trailed kisses along his neck.
Underneath her, his stomach muscles tightened as the rigid steel of his cock nestled along the crease of her buttocks. His hand slid up her inner thigh before he slipped a couple of his fingers inside her.
She gasped, and her inner muscles clamped down on him like a vise. He eased his fingers out, and she whimpered at the emptiness that followed.
His magnetic dark eyes brightened as he brought his glistening fingers to his mouth, which curved into a wicked smile. When he drew them out, his lids lowered. “Nothing tastes as good as you do.” He whispered.
She sucked in a breath. His declaration made her head swim.
In one smooth motion, he rolled her under him once again and claimed one of her breasts, lavishing them with his talented tongue.
The spicy fragrance of their combined musk filled the air.
He teased and kissed the slope of her breasts as one of his hands explored her body, leaving an inferno in his wake.
She arched into him, writhing with a long, drawn-out cry.
“You have the most beautiful breasts, hebat,” Azazel murmured, his focus on that part of her. “I could spend all day worshiping them.” His dramatic sigh made her giggle. “But, alas, there are other tempting territories that beg to be explored.”
He kissed his way down, from the puckered tips of her breasts to navel. With measured movements, he spent some time there, showering her with playful nips before moving lower. Lifting her hips, he wedged his shoulders between her thighs and held her open for his devious exploration.
In a daze, Toni rested on her elbows to watch Azazel focus on her.
In an unhurried motion, he lowered his lips to her straining bud and gave it a gentle suckle.
A keening wail escaped her throat when he intensified his attack, his mouth and tongue propelling her willing body into a tense inferno that caught her by surprise. She exploded into an unexpected, devastatingly wild orgasm.
Her head dropped back to the soft surface. Damn, that didn’t take long, did it? Jeez, how embarrassing was that?
With her mind stuck in a satisfied fog, it was hard to notice Azazel when he left her quivering and shifted positions to kneel between her spread thighs.
With a quick jerk, he draped her knees over his crooked elbows.
She peered at him through heavy-lidded lashes, and her lips parted with a ragged breath as he entered her in one powerful thrust.
Sobbing his name, Toni held him deep inside.
He suckled the hard tip of her nipple into his mouth, all while his hips jackknifed with steadfast thrusts into her. Powerful surges, again and again and again.
She felt not only his body hammering inside her but sensed his consciousness wrapping around her mind as well.
With each powerful drive, he stayed merged with her, mind to mind, in a connection that took her to a never-imagined higher peak.
An experience so scorching and profound, she became desperate to savor as much of him as she could.
Pressing her inner muscles hard, she clamped on his erection even as her slick heat spilled around his dominating flesh with each claiming drive he made.
She yelped his name in a strangled cry, a heartfelt plea for mercy for him to release her building sexual tension.
“Not yet, hebat,” he rasped. “You were made for pleasure.” He growled. A sound like the snarl from the beast he’d turned into. “For my pleasure.”
Each stroke of his body into hers tightened the strain building in her womb, from her clit to her quivering channel. A band contracted between those two pleasure points, then stretched tighter, the need for more growing as each second passed.
“Azazel,” she moaned. “I beg you…”
For what, she wasn’t sure. The only thing she knew was her body burned as it strove for the final pinnacle to relieve her of the oncoming tsunami she hoped she would survive.
“That’s it, Antonia, take all of me.” His expression was tight, his eyes razor-sharp with intent. “Now, give it to me. Give me all of you.”
“Yes,” she hissed.
With her verbal capitulation, Toni let go.
Her body released a ripple that stormed through her, shaking her from head to toe.
A downpour of intense pleasure rained out from her womb and overtook all her senses.
She fell through space and time as her muscles clamped around him, milking him into becoming a part of her.
Then, with a forceful grunt, Azazel’s hips jerked, plunging them over the edge with one last forceful thrust.
Her internal muscles gripped his cock, holding him tight as his heated release jetted inside her.
In reaction, she closed her eyes and hissed as spasms bolted through her.
It was a while before she could let out a sigh of contentment.
With sheer will, she pried her eyes open, needing to drink in the sight of the man above her.
His smug, thoroughly male grin tugged a laugh from her.
He grinned, then gathered her into his arms, and nestled his nose into the nape of her neck.
Toni wrapped her legs around his taut waist and locked her arms behind the thick muscles of his neck, desperate to keep him deep inside her.
Pulling back to look at him, she watched the play of open emotions dance across his face.
She didn’t need to read his mind to know what he felt.
Their inner connection remained strong, giving her a glimpse of his satisfaction with the experience.
Their minds settled into a comfortable alignment with each other. The intense fire hadn’t gone away, it only smoldered, waiting for the merest spark to light it once again. She was convinced that no matter how many times he took possession of her or she of him, their firestorm would remain eternal.
“I’m in love with you, Antonia Soo-Min Choi.” Azazel pulled back, a tremor in his breath as he searched her face. His eyes, open and unshielded, held his confession long before he spoke.
Toni’s grin was so wide it made her cheeks hurt.
“And I, you, Azazel.” She threaded her fingers through the silky strands of the sepia-brown hair at the side of his head.
“I love feeling how fiercely you love me.” She cocked her head with a cheeky grin.
“And I’m positive we’ll grow to love one another the more we are together.
” With a playful nudge on his shoulder, she pouted.
“But… I believe you have some explaining about how I know that.”
His playful leer made her giggle.
“Oh, I’ll do more than tell you, I’ll show you. But first—” He raised his head and looked around with his brows furrowed. “—just where the hell are we?”
Toni threw her arms around his neck and laughed.
