She could feel fire deep inside her, feel the hunger she had for him burning, and could feel her pleasure heightening to an unbearable level.
He knew just the angle she liked at this point, and she loved his intense gaze on her breasts, her face, and the place they were joined. Right now it was just her and Draven. Draven, who’d always protected her. Draven, who’d been there to hold her. Draven, who was now taking her somewhere she’d never been.
When the pleasure built to a needle-sharp intensity, she felt herself tip into a new universe of pleasure, feeling so intense she couldn’t breathe as the first wave broke, making her entire body shudder. She felt Draven’s strong arms wrap around her tight, hard like steel bands, and she felt safe there as she came apart, screaming his name as she felt her body explode in ecstasy.
She couldn’t take it, and she dug her nails into his back as another surge came.
Then Draven jerked inside her, and another wave of intensity moved through her, lighting her up from the inside out with something so strong it couldn’t even be called an orgasm.
She gasped out his name, too out of breath to scream.
“My mate,” he said hoarsely, holding him so close to her they felt like one person.
When the waves finally subsided, her body felt somewhat pleased yet incomplete.
She turned to Ran, who was watching with glowing eyes.
“Damn, I know it’ll be great to be inside you, but I’ll never get tired of seeing you go, even if I’m not the one doing it.”
She bit her lip, not knowing what to say to that. Her body felt flushed with heat, still pulsing with echoes of her pleasure, and as Ran moved forward, she met him, wrapping her arms around him and grounding herself against his beautiful body. She could feel Draven’s eyes on them, knew he was watching out for them as they came together for the first time.
She reached down to touch him, loved the velvety feel of his hard length, so large, so thick. She could hardly wait to have it. Ran hesitated, running his hands over her body with a look of awe in his gorgeous green eyes.
His masculine jaw clenched in focus, and his muscles seemed tensed in anticipation. She leaned in and placed her cheek to his and felt him relax against her.
“Calm down. I’m here,” she said, letting the new power in her reassure him. “I’m not running.”
Ran abruptly slid his hands under her and stood, lifting her out of the tub and stepping out onto the tile. He set her down, wrapped a towel around her, and then easily picked her up in his arms again and strode with her toward the bedroom.
“Ran? Wait—” She was cut off as he abruptly tossed her onto the bed and looked down at her.
She felt small and vulnerable beneath him, and his eyes narrowed as he looked over her body. Draven joined them, standing behind him.
“Ran? What’s—”
Without a word, Ran jumped onto the bed, straddling her with thick, strong thighs. Then he grabbed both her hands and pinned them above her head. She tried to move them, just to test him, and found steel.
She sometimes forgot just how incredibly strong Ran was. It made sense. His was the most powerful dragon, even if he was often humble about it.
He pressed her hands back hard and ran his body over hers, bringing them eye to eye as he pinned her down. “This is how I’ve wanted you. Willing, beneath me. I don’t want gentle. I want to pound into you until you can’t take anymore. I want to hear you scream.”
She felt wetness pool between her thighs at his words.
He was strong; he was fierce. He was her mate. Her body ached for him, any way it could get him.
He dropped his knees between hers and spread her legs achingly wide.
“I’m going to take you now. And then you’ll be mine forever. Mine to protect. My mate.”
She nodded, closing her eyes in anticipation as she felt his tip at her entrance.
He slid in with a hard stroke that had her arching off the bed, stopped by her pinned arms. Her eyes flew to his and his mouth crashed over hers before she could utter a cry of surprise. Ran was so large, so tight, her legs spread so far.
And the sensation was more extreme because she couldn’t move, because his weight was pinning her, because he held her hands down.
It was utterly hypnotic, and she slowly relaxed into the rhythm of his kiss.
Then he started moving again. It was jarring, each thrust stroking directly against the sensitive spot inside her, sending sparks of electricity through her as pleasure started to build.
It was amazing, like it had felt with Draven, but it was different. She could feel Ran, scent him, and knew this was a completely different joining, another beginning that would be just as new as what had happened when she came apart with Draven.
