A Mate for York(65)

The scent of her arousal filled the air and York had to grin. They had made love countless times over the last few days. He still didn’t have his fill of her, although he suspected that he never would. Even a lifetime was too short.

“Am I still in heat?” Cassidy turned her head, so that her wide eyes met his.

York shook his head. “No.” His gaze dropped to her breasts, which had come into view as she turned. He dipped his head and sucked on her nipple. So tasty and just so damned arousing, his already hard cock began to throb.

Cassidy looked a little crestfallen. “So…” She paused for a long while and he released her nipple with a soft popping noise.

“What is it?” York was sure to look her deep in the eyes.

Cassidy shrugged. “I’m just a little nervous. I really want to be pregnant. I only hope we made love enough times.”

Although this was a serious moment, he couldn’t help but to chuckle. “I think we have that covered. My balls have actually shrunk in size.” He planted a kiss on her temple.

She gave a breathy sigh and he noticed that her hand dropped to her belly. “I just want this so badly, York.” She licked her lips. “We’ll know in a few days, right?”

He cupped her chin, reveling in the soft skin under his hand. “Yeah…it won’t take long. You’ll develop a thirst that just won’t quit no matter how much you drink. The queen informed me that your little canines will sharpen and extend. They will still be very small, unlike our fangs.” He curled his lip away, allowing his teeth to extend.

Her eyes widened and again her arousal blossomed.

York fucking loved how his vampire side turned her on.

“You will start to crave blood and will only be satisfied once those little fangs are firmly in my neck and my blood is on your tongue.”

Although she pulled a little face, he could see that she wasn’t nearly as grossed out at the prospect as most humans would be.

Cassidy looked down at the bed, her eyes were clouded in worry.

“Hey.” York put a hand around her waist. “I will be there for you every step of the way. It’s not as bad as you think. I have a feeling that you will take to it quickly and easily.”

Her green tinged eyes met his. “That’s not it,” she all but whispered. “I’m just so worried that I’m not…you know…pregnant. I want this so badly for you…for us.”

“We will try again, Cass. I for one, will love every minute, of every heat, you have.”

“I might not have another heat.” Her lip wobbled. “It’s a miracle I ovulated this time. I still can’t believe it.”

“Firstly, vampire seed is potent…as in ridiculously so. All females that are not capable of birthing young...” Best to explain that, just in case no one else had. “Most of our females have pelvises that are too narrow to be able to birth young. Cutting the child out is impossible because a silver blade would need to be used and silver is toxic to infants.”

“And here I was feeling jealous of their narrow hips.” A look of guilt crossed her face.

“You don’t have to feel guilty, but you certainly don’t have anything to feel jealous over either. Most of our females would kill to have hips like yours.” He clasped her there, feeling her soft flesh beneath his fingers. “You have no idea what your lush curves will do to a male.”

She giggled. “Actually, I think I might have a small inkling.” Her heated gaze dropped to his cock, which twitched under her scrutiny.

“My greedy little female. I’m not finished with this conversation, but I need you to hold onto that dirty thought.”

Her eyes lifted and locked with his.

“Females that can’t birth young have themselves sterilized, because even though we can scent when a female is in heat, mistakes can happen. Even when being extremely careful. When males rut their mate during the heat, it almost always results in the female becoming pregnant.”

Cassidy nodded. “I’m still nervous. I just want this so much. It’s your greatest desire to become a dad and I want you to have that.” She bit down on her lower lip and her eyes filled with tears.

It fucking killed him to see her like this.

“I have exactly what I want. That’s you, Cass. You are my greatest desire.” The pad of his thumb trailed along her jawbone.

She smiled and a tear streaked down her cheek. “Do you really mean that?”

“Fuck, yes. I am already the happiest male on earth. Even if we never have a baby, I am truly satisfied and completely fulfilled because we have each other.”

Another tear tracked down her cheek and he wiped it away. “Please don’t cry.”
