Jake (Immortals of New Orleans #8)(54)

Their combined energies swirled around the room. His lips went to her delicate neck, and she flickered with the same iridescent glow he'd witnessed earlier in the night.

"Kai … oh fuck … This is so … uh … " Jake stumbled over his words, her piercing scream echoing in the steam-filled enclosure as her orgasm slammed into her.

Fuck, she's amazing. He dipped his head to her breast, taking a sweet hardened nipple between his lips. With her legs wound tight around his waist, he increased his pace, pounding into her. He glanced up to her hazy eyes, her body a golden sheen. Jake had never seen such a magnificent sight.

He grazed his pelvis against hers, giving a deep thrust. The sharp bite of Kai's fingernails raking his back brought a sweet twinge of pain. Her tight pussy contracted around him and she cried out loud, coming hard. Unable to hold off another stroke, he exploded, his climax rocking him.

"Aw … fuck," Jake grunted. Mark her, his beast commanded, but Jake ignored him. His fangs elongated and he turned his head. The confusion of the situation was overshadowed by a bolt of energy that spiked through him, and as he looked to his own skin, the golden light danced on both of them.

As she rocked up into him, milking his cock, he shuddered, the last tendrils of his climax tearing through every cell of his body.

He quickly turned off the water, and gently eased out of Kai, settling her onto the floor. Reaching for a towel, he wrapped the fluffy fabric around her shoulders.

"You're amazing," he whispered. "You all right?"

"I'm wonderful." Her eyes twinkled with moisture.

"Hey … you sure you're okay?"

"I've never felt anything like it." She smiled as he carefully dried her skin.

"I … " She's my fucking mate. Jake knew they should talk. He'd felt her energy around him like no other. His wolf urged him to mark her and he'd forced himself not to bite her. The next time he'd lose control, he knew.

"Your magick … I felt it. This was different."

"Kai." Once again, Jake hesitated.

He'd set out to demonstrate he was her master, her Alpha. She'd resisted her submission but did as he'd commanded. What he'd thought would be a simple lesson had proved enlightening to him. 

"Did I hurt you?" she asked, concern in her voice. "Jake, it's okay if you don't want to do this again." She wrapped her arms around her chest.

"Don't hide from me, Kai." Jake gently took her wrists and brought her arms down to her side.

"No … if I hurt you I need to know. This is why I always stayed away … "

"Stop." Jake sighed with a slow smile. "I'm fine. I'm great. I was just going to say … I've never felt someone the way I felt you. And I'm not talking about the sex. That was amazing, don't get me wrong. What I'm talking about is just this energy … this fantastic sensation. And your skin … you glow." Jake snatched another towel, making quick work of drying himself.

"I … my creature. She's tied to the elements. I can do this thing … I'm not sure how old I was when I first learned it. I can do stuff with gold. Manipulate it."

"Now that is some magick, sweetheart. Come here," Jake said. Kai squealed as he lifted her over his shoulder, her bottom exposed. As he made his way into the bedroom, he palmed her ass, caressing her soft globe. She moaned as he trailed his fingers down its crevice. The tip brushed her entrance and he dipped into her soaking wet core. "Hmm … seems you didn't get enough in there."

"Ah … " she managed, pressing her cheek to his back.

His cock stirred, lengthening as he plunged his finger inside her pussy. His shins brushed the side of the bed, and he withdrew it, teasing her juices over her back hole. She moaned in pleasure, and he hardened to concrete at the thought of fucking her ass.

"Ah, sweetheart. You like that? You do, don't you? I can't wait to take you here. But first, we'll have to ease you into it."

As Jake gently deposited Kai onto the bed, he caught sight of Quintus standing in the doorway, and smiled. Another test for his little pixiu, he mused. He'd use it as a diversion from their conversation, one that needed to be had. But exploring her sexuality would be an adventure he couldn't wait to begin.





Chapter Ten


Kai's head spun with arousal, Jake's delicious energy still twisting through her. She'd been terrified to make love with Jake again, afraid she'd hurt him now that she'd begun her transformation. Kai didn't truly understand the implications of her powers, but her attraction to the dominant Alpha had escalated, his strength and command calming her.

In the shower, he'd wielded his power, deliberately crafting her submission. But she knew in her heart she hadn't fully given herself to him. Too soon to trust him, her brain told her. You'll never mate, tattered memories reminded her.
