KOARTHANDRIS
I couldn’t hold myself back any longer. I forced my dick deeper, feeling how tight Izzy still was, despite my efforts. Yet also seeing the desperation in her gaze, the longing for exactly what I was giving her, despite the extreme stretch.
Her screams suddenly died out in a choked gasp and one of her hands slipped out of my grip, where I’d pinned her arms to the mirror, and pressed against my lower abdomen, stopping me.
Had I gone too early, pained her too much?
Her hips undulated, deliciously moving me around inside her. Then her eyes rolled back, tongue coming out a little as that same hand of hers slid over to grab my hips and pull me forward again.
She’d needed a moment to adjust.
Done.
I gave one hard thrust, crushing my loins to hers, and her head lolled back.
She gave the sexiest little gasps, and through those staccato breaths I caught one drawn out word.
“More!”
This was why Izzy was so damned perfect. All the brains and beauty and poise I wanted in a woman… who was also sturdy enough to take what I could give her physically. And not just take it but want more of it.
Which was good, because I was losing my shit at finally being with Izzy.
Both hands slid down, tracing over her sides to her hips.
I held her firm while I thrusted hard, my entire body shaking with the intensity of vigor and ecstasy pulsing through me.
I’d not waste a single drop of passion with this woman, but I was getting to the end of my rope.
I wanted to make this last, savor this encounter, but Izzy was too much for me and I could barely control myself.
I moved with frenzied abandon, like nothing I’d ever felt before.
No woman had ever made me lose myself the way Izzy did.
Izzy’s back arched, her eyes going wide, entire body tensing as she came.
She found her voice and yelled, “Fuck, yes!” before she sat forward and threw her arms around me, her hips now moving in time with mine as her legs clamped around my body. It seemed this latest orgasm had revitalized her, and she was throwing herself into our encounter.
She pulled my face down to hers but shifted to the side so she could whisper in my ear with that sexy-as-hell hot, gasping, breathy voice.
“You made me feel so damned good, now it’s your turn.” And she redoubled her movements, bouncing on my cock, pressing that perfect body of hers against me.
Fuck.
I couldn’t hold back any longer.
I clamped my hands on her hips to keep her in place as my final thrust hit home and I blasted my release inside her.
A long, guttural grunt escaped my lips as Izzy leaned back, hands linked behind my neck, arms straight, to watch me come.
It seemed only fair. I’d watched what I’d done to her… three times.
I hid nothing from her, showing her exactly how she made me feel, what she did to me. I’d never hide anything from her. Izzy was my life now. Not only as my calling, to protect her as the last royal, but also as my lover. I needed nothing but to keep her safe and love her.
I hoped I could do both of those things at the same time.
With her wrapped around me, it was easy enough to walk into the large shower as we both slowly came down from our respective highs. I had a feeling we were going to make a mess and given the sheen of sweat on Izzy, a bit of a wash off was probably in order.
And when I lifted her off me and set her down, she wobbled, steadying herself against the tiled wall.
“I’d say you’ve ruined me for all other guys,” she breathed as she let the warm waters cascade over her perfect form.
“But given the other guys in question are Vyns, who’s no slouch, a sex demon, and my bonded, the playing field is pretty even.
” One of her hands slid down her slippery torso to cup her sex, giving a little shiver.
“But… wow… that was intense!” She gave a sexy little laugh.
“If I wasn’t an elf, and didn’t have healing powers, I’d be sore for a weak! ”
I watched all this while soaping myself up, a broad smile on my face.
Skies! How long had it been since I’d smiled like this? Decades at least.
Izzy held out her hand, as if to shake. “Well, that was certainly one hell of an interview, I’d like to formally offer you the position of fourth man in my harem.” Her playful grin made me smile even wider.
I took her hand, so small in mine, and shook it… while also passing her the soap.
“I hear the salary is shit, but the benefits are to die for,” I responded.
Her eyes went wide and she laughed. “Did you…? Was that… a joke?” She lost herself to laughter and my spirits lifted at the sight of her mirth. “Who knew you had a sense of humor?” she added once she’d regained her composure then began soaping herself up as I rinsed.
“You… make me smile… and want to jest… which I haven’t done in a long time,” I admitted, voice quiet, somber.
Izzy turned to me and cocked her head. Then her expression turned hard. “This damned world,” she muttered. “It takes so much from so many. It’s time to change all of that.”
I smiled again.
“If anyone can, it’s you.”
She stood a little taller.
“Hell yeah!” Her smile returned, and she leaned in to kiss my arm, her lips roughly level with where my biceps met my shoulder. “Thank you.”
We finished our quick shower and toweled off, dressing again before making our way back into the bedroom. Myel was still out of it, but Rook was awake.
“I felt that,” he accused both of us, but then he smiled and shook his head. Addressing Izzy, he added, “I’m glad you’re feeling better.” Then to me, “I’m glad you’ve loosened up a bit.”
“And…” Izzy emphasized the word by raising a finger, “nothing bad happened.” She turned to me with a grin. “Curse officially lifted!”
It hadn’t really been a curse, but I appreciated the sentiment.
Then a knock sounded on the door, and before anyone could reply Safir entered looking grim.
“Good, you’re up,” he addressed Izzy, tone formal. “Get dressed, there’s been word from the capital.”
Fuck.
“Valnea forced a meeting of the crown council,” Safir continued. “They’ve formally proclaimed her queen. She’s coming, but she won’t be alone. She doesn’t just want her daughter back. She’s declared all-out war on Veilblood Academy… on you.”
And there it was.
“Lhorine and Svokol are gathering others from the campus for a meeting. You’ll be required,” the shifter finished.
“Well fuck, that didn’t last long,” Izzy said with a heavy sigh.
Then she looked up at me and must have seen the scowl on my features.
“Oh no you don’t,” she said slapping my arm.
“Don’t you dare go thinking that somehow sex with me caused this to happen, you know damned well it was going to happen anyway. ”
That was true, and I hadn’t really been thinking I’d caused this, or that it had happened “while I’d been distracted.
” No, I was concerned because I knew what Valnea was capable of.
In some ways, it would have been better if the woman had flown off the handle and come down here to face Izzy herself.
Izzy could have defeated her, like she’d bested Saldrea.
But Valnea, despite how mentally unstable she was, also wasn’t stupid.
She was taking her time with this, marshaling all her forces to crush Izzy and our little upstart rebellion. That’s what worried me.
“Sex with the dragon caused this?” Rook asked, confused. “I missed something.”
Safir shook his head and rolled his eyes.
“I’m fine, Perfection,” I whispered to Izzy. “I know this wasn’t me.”
“Did you just call me Perfection?” she breathed, blushing.
I had, and I hadn’t even realized it. Yet that was exactly how I thought of her.
“You big softy,” she whispered, then leaned over to kiss my arm again. After that she straightened. “Time to get to work.”
