Chapter 29 - Elias
Emma closed the door to Grace’s room as I waited for her in the hall.
“Out like a light,” she whispered. “With how tired she is, she probably won’t wake up even if there was an earthquake.”
“Good,” I growled.
I pushed her against the wall and slammed my mouth against hers, pushing her lips apart with my tongue as I claimed her. My fingers tangled in her hair as a surge of need and longing slammed over me. My wolf howled, wanting more of her, never satisfied. A lifetime with Emma wouldn’t be enough.
My hands roamed over her body, responding to her soft moans and the way her body leaned into the touch. My cock twitched, her soft groans of arousal driving me even wilder.
I wanted nothing more than to strip her right then and fuck her against the wall, making as much noise as possible, wanting to make her scream.
But I had been around Grace long enough now to know just how absurdly light a sleeper she was, and how prone to wandering she could be at night.
So, forcing myself to resist those impulses, I scooped Emma into my arms and carried her to our bedroom.
The second I closed the door behind us, my mouth was on hers again, tasting her, drinking in her scent. My lips trailed down her neck, eliciting sighs of ecstasy as she swayed slightly, her eyes fluttering with lust.
I needed more of her. Without a word, without giving her a warning, I grabbed the hem of her dress and pulled it up, using all of my self-control not to rip the fabric to get it off faster.
She shimmied out of it. The second the dress lay in a crumpled heap, I spun her around with a hungry growl, unclasping her bra and removing her panties in fluid motions until she stood naked in front of me.
I stepped back, admiring her, drinking in her curves and the way her hair shaped her face as it fell to just above her ample breasts. My cock was rock-hard by now, and I could see the hunger burning in her own eyes, and feel it through the mating bond connecting us.
With a snarl, I jerked her toward me, pressing her mouth to mine just long enough for me to taste her before my lips trailed away from her mouth down to her neck, then her collarbone. I bit gently, and she gasped in pleasure, pressing harder against me without realizing it.
Groaning, I held her in place as one of my hands slipped between us.
She gasped and squeaked as my fingers took one nipple and pinched it slightly.
She glowered as I grinned back at her. Before she could say anything, I pulled her against me once more, smothering her words as I kissed her, my hand still grasping her tit, squeezing every so often to elicit another soft jerk of her body.
Without letting go of her, I moved us deeper into the room.
I laid her down on the bed, crawling on top of her.
I kissed her just below her navel, slowly moving upward as I continued kissing her.
She squirmed, making whimpers of need that made me smirk.
I dragged it out, making her wait until I was ready.
I took one nipple in my mouth and felt her twitch beneath me, a soft moan escaping her lips.
Still sucking on her breast, I moved my hand down to her mound.
She twitched again, this time more fervently, when my thumb pressed against her clit.
The way she writhed only made my cock harder.
With my thumb still pressing down, my fingers slid across her slit, circling around her opening but not going in.
Then, without warning, my fingers plunged inside her.
Her eyes flew open as her back arched, mouth parting in response.
She squirmed as her breath grew ragged. My cock stiffened, straightening at her moans and pants as her hunger grew, mirroring my own.
Part of me wanted to fuck her already, to take her then.
But another part of me wanted to keep savoring the sensation, to draw it out for as long as possible.
Her own need only fueled my own, making the conquest even sweeter as my cock throbbed and pulsed.
Every movement of my hands seemed only to make those groans of longing grow louder and more insistent, only driving my wolf more wild. I loved watching her reactions, knowing that I was able to elicit that sort of response from her. I watched her face as it twisted in pleasure.
Just as her breath grew higher-pitched, I stopped, removing my fingers from inside her.
She whimpered, squirming with need. I traced her curves again, drawing out the movement, watching her face contort with need and frustration until her eyes opened and she all but glowered at me, need filling her eyes.
“Just fuck me already,” she begged.
I didn’t respond at first. Instead, I continued trailing my fingers along her body, cupping her between her legs, and trailing along her side as she writhed beneath me. I crawled forward until our bodies were flush and trailed kisses up her neck, my lips brushing against her ear as she moaned.
“Elias,” she begged.
My mouth smothered hers as I thrust inside her.
She screamed, my mouth muffling the sound as I continued thrusting in and out of her. My hands gripped her hips as my thrusts grew more rapid and insistent.
That need for her, that all-consuming desire that only seemed to grow every day, inflamed in me yet again.
I held on, relishing the sensation of sliding in and out of her as her breath grew ragged and more insistent, her soft, mewling sounds making my cock throb.
I pumped harder, thumb flicking across her clit.
She cried out, her back arching as she reached a crescendo.
Her fingers curled into fists as she squirmed, her hips bucking in time with mine.
As she finished, her muscles contracted around my cock, and I couldn’t hold it back any longer.
Release washed over me as I came inside her.
I groaned as my thrusts slowed, eventually coming to a halt.
I brushed her hair from her face as I slid out of her. “You’re incredible, you know that?” I said.
“You’ve told me on more than one occasion,” she said. She bit her lip and glanced away.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“Oh, just, I’m worried about the wraith,” she confessed. “I know we haven’t heard anything from it, but it’s still worrying me.”
I could understand that. It was a fear that had been bothering me as well. But I knew that we could handle it.
“If it comes back, we’ll be ready,” I said, brushing her hair out of her face. “No matter what happens, we’ll be the alpha and luna the pack needs. And the parents Grace deserves.”
She smiled, then pulled me back to her for a long kiss.
“That sounds perfect,” she said.
