His brown eyes darkened, letting her know he received her telepathic message. Then he sent her one of his own. I love you, Sierra, and always will. You astonish me. You challenge me. You complete me.
Her heart and her body just about melted. She wanted to jump his bones right there and then. She could tell by his lopsided smile that he knew it.
Looking over his shoulder, she noted, “I see you finished wallpapering the foyer. Good job.”
“Should I have left my tool belt on?” he drawled.
“I would just have to take it off. Just like I’m taking this off.” The day was warm enough even though it was March that she hadn’t worn a coat. Remembering Tanya’s instructions from weeks ago, Sierra crooked her knee and shimmied out of her slim skirt. Then she gracefully took hold of her ivory silk top and lifted it over her head. At least that was her intention. She did get her arm briefly stuck but hopefully Ronan didn’t notice.
Apparently he didn’t because his attention immediately focused on her breasts. Pulling her close, he cupped them in his hand and murmured in her ear. “I want you. Are you ready for some hot vampire sex?”
“Always.”
Scooping her in his arms, he hustled her into their bedroom. The romantic canopy bed that Zoe had conjured for them filled most of the space.
The room was done in pale peach that Ronan said reminded him of her bare skin. He made fast work of removing her lingerie but then slowed down to kiss every inch of skin he’d just revealed.
He traced the shell of her ear with his tongue before nibbling on her earlobe. She’d had no idea that area was such an erogenous zone. He’d taught her so much about her body and the pleasure he could give her.
He found nerve endings she didn’t even know existed, in the arch of her foot or the small of her back, then licked and nibbled his way over her body, creating a pathway of excitement that reached a crescendo when he reached the pulsing flesh between her parted legs. Once there he teased her with the tip of his tongue. Her clit emitted sharp quivers of delight shooting through to her very core.
She dug her heels into the bed and lifted her pelvis. He gripped her hips with both hands and held her in place as he continued to fiercely seduce her until spasms of bliss consumed her. Then he worked his way up her body, lapping at her navel, sucking on the rosy tip of each breast.
Sierra took his erection in her hands, encircling him and sliding her hand up and down his hard length. He plunged into her with a feral growl, joining them together with ferocious power. She put her hands on his sexy ass and pulled him even deeper. He communicated his approval of her actions by increasing the primal intensity of his possession of her.
The wildly erotic friction of his thrusts soon propelled her over the edge. Blissful spasms took hold of her. Her orgasm continued on and on as Ronan continued on and on until every iota of satisfaction was wrung from her and she vibrated inside and out.
Only then did he come, tilting back his head and shouting her name.
Afterward, she whispered, “That one should have been worth at least a hundred years.”
His grin was downright wolfish. “A hundred? More like a thousand.”
Sierra knew Ronan was no knight in shining armor. He was a vampire with a dark past. But the future was looking very bright because Sierra would be spending it with him—the love of her very long life.
