Chapter 43 #2

“I take it you missed me.” I slowly turned in his embrace, raising my hands to lock them around his neck.

“Wildly.” He grinned. “But that is to be expected when my only company is a dragon obsessed with a collection of sticks and string.”

Said dragon huffed and pushed to her feet. “I am going flying.”

She shifted into an enormous silver beast and kicked off into the sky, shaking several trees and causing a cascade of blooms to fall like rain.

Kael purred, “That is a euphemism for ‘fucking’, and it is the second time she has gone off fucking, the first of which was soon after the sun reached its brightest and I had thought I would be happy she was gone and I could focus on my reading, but instead I had found myself sitting beneath that tree, thinking about you. Like so.”

He disappeared again, reappearing where he had been, lazing beneath the tree with his back to it.

“Thinking about me?” My brows rose. “How so?”

“Come here and I will tell you.” He jerked his chin.

I did as he wanted, stopping when I was standing over him. “Well?”

He ran a hand up my leg beneath my dress, his gaze searing me as he murmured, “I want to delve my fingers between your thighs into that sweet pussy of yours, until they are wet with your essence, and then I want to suck them clean.”

“Bastard.” I slapped at his hand, glaring at him.

He grinned unrepentantly as his shadows swirled around my legs and tugged me closer to him. “You look as if you need to relax a little… so you can tell me about your day while I feast on you.”

“Stop that.” I hit his hand again as it roamed higher. “Last time you got grass stains on my dress and Lorien noticed.”

“Well, I just cannot let you lie down then.” His shadows lifted me into the air and put my back to the tree he had been resting against as he moved onto his knees.

Damn him, but I did love the sight of him on his knees before me.

He pushed his hands up my trembling legs and eased my undergarments down them, the feel of them sliding over my skin making it hard to think and stop him.

His grin said he knew I wouldn’t, that I had already surrendered to him, aching to feel his mouth on my flesh and too greedy for him to stop him.

His shadows eased my legs apart but supported me at the same time, steadying me against the tree as they opened me to him and kept my skirts lifted.

He groaned and his gaze grew hooded as he stroked a finger down me. “Such a perfect, pretty little thing.”

I lifted my hand to cuff his pointed ears, but it fell back to my side as he stroked the pads of two fingers up my cleft, his low moan of appreciation making me feel sort of powerful.

He kept his promise, pressing his fingers into his mouth to suck them clean as he held my gaze. The way his eyes slipped shut as he tasted me? Gods, that really did make me feel powerful. No question about it.

“Great Mother,” he breathed as he opened those bewitching eyes to lock them with mine. “I am ravenous for you. Let me feast on you, little wolf.”

I nodded, too eager to feel his mouth on me, as ravenous for it as he had said he was to taste me.

The shadows twining around my legs opened them further and I bit my lip to stifle a groan as he pressed his head between them to feast on me as promised.

Gods, he was right. This was what I needed.

All that tension that had been building within me just melted away as he knelt between my thighs and worshipped me, and I surrendered to his masterful tongue as it swirled around my clit, maddening me. Giving me what I needed.

Between those bewitching swirls, he murmured, “Report what you have learned.”

I groaned. “I can’t focus on that right now.”

The bastard stopped and sat back. “I will hear your report then.”

I cuffed him around his pointed ears, glowering down at him. “You’d better not stop. It’s worth more than your life.”

He chuckled, the sound heating my blood to an unbearable degree. “Then you had better tell me what you learned then.”

He stroked me with his fingers, sweeping them up my flesh, and licked them clean as his gaze locked with mine, and damn, it was erotic and arousing the way he did that, and forced my surrender so I could feel that wicked tongue between my thighs again.

I huffed.

He saw it for the surrender it was and purred, “Good girl.”

He set back to work, devouring me, the feel of his tongue rasping over my clit intoxicating me. I tried to think through the pleasure of his touch, aware he would stop again if I didn’t file this report he wanted.

I kept it short. “I went to the library. I found nothing. I came here. The end.”

“That will not do,” he husked against my overheating flesh, sending a shiver along my limbs. “I intend to devour you for hours, and therefore you must speak for hours.”

“That is literally what happened. The only thing I found out is that Lorien is off training with the commanders for some reason, and Meiryn has a thing for a male who can use his cock very well, and I’ve enlisted her as my spy since she seems willing to look for males in the soldier ranks who can match the stable hand she once knew.

She’s going to get them to talk with her pussy. ”

His tongue laved just the right spot to have me trembling and then he purred against it, “I can use my cock very well.”

“That isn’t up for debate… and are you seriously jealous that my half-sister knows males who know how to satisfy a female? It’s not like I’m the one off looking for—”

His low growl silenced me, a warning that vibrated through me.

I was pushing him, and if I wanted him to remain hidden and not go nuclear on every male in the vicinity to make sure I couldn’t find out if they could use their manhood as well as he could then I needed to distract him from his dark thoughts.

“Tell me about your day,” I said, “and then you can prove to me again how good you are with that part of you I love so much.”

He chuckled again, his lips grazing my inner thigh. A victory.

“I spent much of it fantasising about having you like this,” he murmured between kisses.

“How I would feather my fingers along your plump flesh and how wet you would be, and how your legs would tremble as I teased you with the lightest of caresses. How my name would tumble from your lips. And… oh… how you would beg me for something more, but I would deny you, doing this instead.”

He teased me with his tongue, sending ripples of pleasure skittering outwards from the spot he caressed, and then stroked me with his fingers again as he rumbled against my hip.

“When you were close… desperate… I would spin you around so your front was to that tree and I would watch your face as I held you there, rendered immobile by my shadows.”

I moaned and gripped the tree, trembling as his fingers delved lower, tormenting me. “And then what?”

I felt him grin against my inner thigh.

He shoved two fingers deep into me, making me rise up, and growled, “And then this.”

He went to war on me, thrusting and sucking, licking and taking, and gods it was wild and wonderful, and I had to cover my mouth as I shattered, silencing my scream of pleasure as it tried to burst from my lips.

Kael slowly brought me down, murmuring praises against my slick flesh, softly stroking me with his tongue.

Shadows tightened and angled me as he withdrew his fingers from my trembling sheath, and I managed to open my eyes to look down at him, needing to see him.

He bent his head and tongued my core, pressing it inside me before sucking and feasting, his low rumbling moans stirring my need again.

His hands pressed to my quivering thighs and he spread them as he sucked my essence from me, as he moaned with each drop I gave up, as if he couldn’t get enough of the taste of me.

A second release hit me out of nowhere, so hard and fierce stars winked across my vision and I barely contained my howl of pleasure as my entire body came alive in a wave of heat and sparks.

The shadows holding me upright loosened and I squealed as I fell forwards, unable to support my weight on my trembling legs.

Kaeleron caught me, his teasing laugh soft against my cheek before he nuzzled it and whispered in my ear, “That is how I spent my day.”

I relaxed into him, feeling liquid, and settled my head on his shoulder, breathless but far less down about the day.

When I had caught my breath, he righted me and brushed his knuckles across my cheek.

“It is not your fault the books do not easily yield their secrets.”

“I know,” I said and tugged my underwear back on, my legs still unsteady.

“I’m just annoyed I’m not making any progress.

You’re here, and I need to get you out of here, but I don’t want to leave without finding out what happened…

and I feel like by staying I’m just placing you in unnecessary danger. ”

He studied me for a moment, a calculating edge to his silver eyes.

“Perhaps if you made progress in another area instead, you might feel better.” He pushed to his feet, dusted his backside down, and then offered me his hand.

“What area?” I took hold of his hand, not hesitating to place mine into it, and he hauled me up onto my feet and into his arms.

He grinned down at me.

“Are we up for a little training, my love?”
