12. Sai #2
“You will never lose me.” Her words had hope nearly suffocating me. “I may have found my parents, but they aren’t my family. Not how you guys are. You are my mates, Sai. Wherever we go, we go together… at least, that’s how I thought it worked. Unless you want something different.”
“No,” I hissed out immediately and winced, feeling like an ass at my harsh tone. “I wouldn’t blame you, though, finding out you’re the princess of an entire realm. You have a massive family that would love nothing more than to keep you.”
Maya’s voice was edged in vulnerability as she spoke softly. “Do you want to keep me, Sai?”
How was that a fucking question?
In a second flat I had her pinned to the bed, cupping her face and examining her surprised but worried expression. How the hell had she reached that conclusion? I wanted to kiss that expression away, but instead I decided to tell her exactly how I felt.
“Of course I want to fucking keep you, Maya. You’re all I want. I’m terrified that you are going to realize that you don’t want us. That you have better options.”
Her eyes widened. “Better options? Sai, you guys saved me. You changed my entire world in a day. There aren’t any other options because I could never feel this way about anyone else.”
I swallowed back my words of utter devotion as I considered laying all my cards on the table, but my dragon was demanding that I approach the topic that bothered him the most. I felt weak giving into it, but I knew her answer would relieve or break me, and the anticipation of it was driving me to insanity.
“You marked Ledger,” I whispered, the realization of part of what had truly been bothering me becoming all too clear as the weight from not asking her was lifted from me.
Her eyes filled with confusion. “Was I not supposed to?”
How the hell did I explain this without sounding absolutely mental?
“It’s not that.” I frowned, ignoring the rumble that tried to escape my chest. “My dragon is just upset that he came before us. You marked the other three but skipped over us.”
It was stupid, so stupid, that dominance mattered to my dragon, but it did, and it was driving me up the goddamn wall. It was a slight that made my dragon feel as though we weren’t worthy of being her mate, and that concept was painful enough to damn well cripple me.
“I didn’t skip you.” Her authentic confusion had me feeling even worse.
“I understand that,” I murmured, “but my dragon is a dick.”
“Is this because of the hierarchy thing Croy explained?” she asked softly.
I nodded, and her eyes filled with a softness, her lips pressing up into a beautiful smile. “Sai, I want to mark all of you. As soon as possible.”
“You can mark me literally whenever you want,” I expressed as her smile grew, making me suddenly wonder how dangerous Maya would be the more this side of her was released.
The one that teased and taunted. All it took was a goddamn smile from the woman and I was hard enough that my pants were uncomfortable.
In a move that impressed me, she rolled us easily so her body was flush on top of mine, her knees coming forward so that she was straddling me, her dark hair falling and creating a shade of privacy between us and the world.
I wasn’t worried about anyone busting in here, especially since I had no doubt my flight was clued into what was happening.
“What are you doing?” I grunted as she leaned forward and kissed me, a soft brush that I immediately deepened.
My hands found her hips as my cock jumped, pressing against the heat between her thighs.
I had never loved her lack of clothing as much as I did in that moment.
Her fingers gripped my hair, creating a tight hold as a low groan echoed from my chest, her hips rocking against my hardening cock.
A needy sigh left her lips as I found myself fucking thrilled that Maya was so attracted to me.
It made dealing with this intensity far easier.
“I want to mark you now,” she admitted, breaking from the kiss. “Can I?”
Was that even a fucking question? Of course she fucking could. The woman could turn me black and blue with bites and I would fucking love that shit.
Before I could stop her, Maya was sliding down my body, my nostrils flaring as her hands ran along the waist of my pants before pushing up the comfortable shirt I had changed into.
I hissed at the feeling of her fingers on my skin as I tried to keep my hands down at my sides, attempting to maintain some level of sanity while letting her take the lead, a concept that nearly had me getting lightheaded.
Don’t get me wrong, the urge to dominate Maya was strong, but watching her take control was hot as fuck.
“Kitten.” My warning broke out in a low rumble as she began to trail kisses down my abdomen, my body tightening as her tongue snuck out along the divet of my abs.
I knew she could feel how hard I was, and my hands once again twitched towards her automatically, wanting to pull her against me, but I stopped myself, gripping the bedding hard enough it was near ripping.
“You said I could,” she whispered, her face flushed and a slight nervousness filling her gaze.
“I know,” I grit out, not positive I could handle the vision in front of me without coming.
She was between my legs, kneeling with her mouth so close to my cock that all she would have to do was lean down and run her tongue along it while sticking that perfect little ass up in the air.
I inhaled sharply, the image making my cock pulse as her magic flared and she offered me that teasing smile again.
“I just didn’t expect you to look so good on your knees. ”
I shouldn’t have been fucking surprised though, the woman looked divine no matter what she was doing.
“Should I not be? Do you not like it?” she asked softly, her nails running up my stomach. I nearly flipped us, wanting to feel her nails in my hair as I buried my mouth against her tight pink cunt.
“I fucking love it. I also hate it. You should never be on your knees for anyone, let alone me, but holy fuck is it hot.” I was past the point of trying to preserve my pride now.
If this is what she looked like kneeling on a bed, I couldn’t imagine how she would look kneeling while I stood over her, my cock in her soft mouth as she sucked me off.
Fuck. That wasn’t helping.
“Good.” Her magic reared up, and I let out a low groan of her name as her teeth sank into the hard ridge of the side of my abdomen, making me nearly come. The feel of her breasts pressed against my covered cock had my hips jolting up as if that would somehow bring us relief.
The relief I did feel, though? The connection that slammed into me seconds after her teeth pierced my skin.
Our bond heated up, and I felt an electric, searing explosion run through me as her emotions blasted into my head, lust and affection making my doubts instantly settle as I realized how much Maya considered us hers and considered herself ours.
A possessive wave slammed into me as my dragon surged forward, my attempt to stop him not even affecting him.
“Mine.” A growl broke from my throat as I immediately flipped her, unable to handle not marking her. And she was mine. My fucking mate. I didn’t even care that there were others outside as a small moan broke from her lips.
“You have to be a quiet kitten.” I nipped her bottom lip and trailed kisses along her cheekbone to her ear. “We don’t want your parents to hear you moaning my name as you come, do you?”
“Sai,” she pleaded as I pushed her shirt up, revealing her sexy, tight body and the lace panties and bra underneath. Immediately I pulled down a cup of her bra and teased her nipple with my teeth, a strangled gasp braking from her lips.
“Tell me you’re mine, Maya,” I growled, my dragon very present and not going anywhere now that she had marked us.
“I’m yours, Sai.” She whimpered and squirmed against me. “I want you to mark me, please?”
She never needed to ask twice. I slid my fingers down to the waistband of her panties, wanting her cum on my fingers and her moaning my name as I finally marked her.
I let out a low snarl as my fingers slipped into her panties and met soaking wet heat, her panting breath making me know how fucking turned on she was.
When I slid a finger inside of her, I felt her walls contract around me, making my cock leak precum.
“I want to mark you while you come, kitten,” I demanded softly, running my tongue around her pebbled nipple while pumping my finger in and out, her hips rocking against my hand and trying to gain friction.
I growled as I felt her grow even wetter, my thumb rolling her clit as my name left her lips on a needy moan.
“Oh shit,” she hissed, and that word alone had me pumping harder, loving the side that only we seemed to be able to draw out. I could feel her magic and her phoenix surrounding us, fortifying the bond as I made sure my kitten was fucking purring before marking her.
“Come for me, Maya,” I demanded, biting down gently on her nipple and slipping a second finger into her tight pussy.
“Sai.” Her breathless moan of my name had me sinking my teeth into the top of her perky breast as her entire body jolted and trembled, her cunt locking down on my fingers as my name filled the room, the taste of her blood on my tongue.
I groaned as I realized why Ledger had been so goddamn frenzied. She tasted amazing.
Sliding further down her body, I brought my mouth against her wet heat as she jolted in a secondary climax, her energy from before becoming ten times stronger, making me wonder if that had to do with our connection or something else.
I groaned at the sweet, almost sugary taste on my tongue as I gripped her legs, pushing them open as she tried to hide her sweet, wet center from me, the skin oversensitized.
“Fuck, I love you,” I groaned against her as she moaned out my name again. I had no idea if she heard my words, but I couldn’t imagine she didn’t know. I was a damn fool over the woman, and I absolutely didn’t regret it.
Our bond radiated pleasure, and I could feel relief on my dragon’s end and the satisfaction from Maya, her entire body filled with pleasure from what I’d done to her. It was fucking euphoric having access to her head, and I now understood why mating bonds were so dangerous.
This made me ten times more devoted to her. Obsessed over her.
When I finally pulled back, I looked up and found Maya watching me with parted lips and a flushed face. I moved over her, caging her against the bed. Her lips met mine as a whimper left her lips at the taste of her on them.
“See how fucking addictive you taste, kitten? Fucking hell,” I groaned and nipped her bottom lip. “I could spend every morning and night eating that tight little pussy.”
“I wouldn’t be opposed,” she offered, her eyes wide and her breathing fast.
My face grew more serious as I examined her expression. “I’m fucking crazy about you, Maya. Please choose us. I know that’s a lot to ask, but I need you, kitten?—”
“Sai, of course I choose you. I will always choose you.”
Emotion tightened in my throat at her honest words. No one had ever chosen me before. I had even been assigned to this flight, not chosen. I hadn’t realized how much that reality affected me until I had someone I loved actively picking me.
“Why?” I felt everything inside of me tighten.
“Because I love you.” Her honest and simplistic answer had tears nearly prickling my eyes as I nuzzled into her neck, burying myself there.
“I love you, Maya.”
A small, cute laugh broke from her lips. “I know, I heard you.”
Oh yeah, when I was licking her tight pretty pussy.
When the door suddenly opened, I was glad that her shirt had fallen down slightly, but it didn’t change the compromising position we were in.
We both looked up to find Anani standing in the door looking fucking amused as hell, his lips pressed together as if he was thinking how to word what he was going to say next. I knew it wasn’t going to be good.
“You two may want to come out here, we um… we still have guests.” Anani chuckled and then shook his head. “Goddamnit Sai, you literally are going to get us killed.”
Maya’s eyes widened as the reality of what we had just done hit me.
Fuck.
I had done some really stupid shit in my life, but making the princess of the Dreki realm come against my mouth, a room away from her parents, specifically her fathers… that was bad, even for me.
“Oh no,” Maya’s voice squeaked.
Anani flashed an amused smile. “Yeah, they are still out there. You’re fucked, buddy.”
I groaned, wondering how much shit Marco was going to put me through for this… if her fathers didn’t kill me first. At least I knew Maya loved me.
That was worth dying for.
