My Brother's Keeper(28)

Anne wrapped her arms around his neck and looked up at him. "The second one, then the first one twice, then the second one again," she grinned up him.

Kendrick looked up at the ceiling before smiling down at her. "You will be the death of me."

"Always," she promised.

Kendrick stepped backward and unzipped his jeans. When he let them fall, Anne began to have serious regrets about asking for multiple sessions. She doubted she was going to survive the first round.

His cock was erect and reached his belly button. As if she wasn't worried enough about the length, the rounded head capped a shaft that she knew she would barely be able to wrap her hand around.

"It won't kill you," Kendrick said laughing.

Anne scrunched up her face. "It might."

"Let's see." He knelt down in front of her and rolled her panties over her hips and down her legs. She stepped out of them, and he threw them across the room.

"Have you ever made love to a witch before?" he asked as he used his thumbs to part her folds.

She shook her head. "You know I haven't."

Kendrick looked up at her with an impish smile on his face. "Then let me introduce you to benefits of being mated to a witch."

One second she was standing, the next she was on her back, floating in mid-air. "Kendrick?"

"I've mastered air magic my love, you won't fall."

He floated her over to the bed, but instead of letting her fall onto the covers, he kept her floating three feet above them.

She raised an eyebrow.

"The better to eat you, my dear." He spread her legs wide and ran his tongue up her slit until he was teasing her clit with his teeth.

Gasping, she threw her head back. Over and over he alternated between sharp bites and rapid flicks of his tongue. With her legs straining, she reached for him, chasing the pleasure he promised.

He drew back and dropped her gently on the bed. She whimpered at the loss, and he chuckled.

"It gets better," he said as he reached down and began to enter her slowly.

She knew she was right to be concerned. He was stretching her too much. She began thrashing her head from side to side. "Kendrick!"

She was about to tell him to stop when she felt his hot mouth on her clit again.

Huh? How could he be pleasuring her with both his mouth and his cock at the same time?

She opened her eyes, and he was smiling down at her. "How?"

"Fire magic."

The heat twisted and turned. She clenched down on his invading cock, trying to capture that one thing she was desperate for.

He leaned forward and leisurely licked and nibbled on her left breast. When he pulled back, an icy biting sensation distracted her from the overwhelming sensations around her clit.

He surged deep, filling her completely before igniting his fire spell to send her into the stratosphere. He mercilessly kept her on the brink of climax and then brought her down with a bite of ice. Back and forth, he used the dueling sensations to drive her out of her mind.

Just when she thought she couldn't take it anymore, he was leaning over her, thrusting into her over and over again. His gaze was filled with love and his eyes with tears as he began to recite words that she somehow knew; it was as if they were written on her heart and only he could see the words to unlock her soul.

"As there is a sun and moon, a sky and earth, and a Lord and Lady, so there are two pieces to this one soul. Let us be complete once more, never to be torn apart. I give everything I am into my mate's keeping, let my love protect and guard our joined souls."

He thrust deep one final time, shuddering with his own release, which triggered her orgasm. As her heartbeat began to slow, she began to feel a gentle, warm wave begin to engulf her. It wasn't forceful or savage. It was kind and patient as it slowly invaded every cell in her body. She felt new connections as awareness flooded her senses. She was now tied to nature itself; it was so humbling and beautiful, and she began to cry.

Kendrick withdrew from her body and rolled them onto their sides, wrapping his body around hers. He held her close as the waves began to dissipate.

She wasn't able to speak for a few minutes. "What was that?"

Kendrick kissed the side of her neck. "That was my magic, my connection with nature. I'm closer to Her than most witches. She was very happy to meet you."

Anne could still feel his power trickling through her body. "Am I a witch now?"

Behind her, she felt him shake his head. "No, you're still human, but you'll gain the ability to do certain things."

"Like what?"

Kendrick shrugged. "It's different for every couple. Usually a male witch and a female witch will exchange aspects of the magic they are best at. For example, a fire witch may gain the ability to call a breeze from his mate who can work with air spells."

"But you don't do just one thing."

"No, I don't."

"So, you really don't know."

"No, but doesn't that make it exciting?"

She laughed and then gasped. She could definitely feel the aftereffects of his lovemaking.

"Did I hurt you?" he asked immediately, sounding concerned.

"No, not really. I'm just slightly sore. It's more of a nuisance than pain."

He didn't say anything.

"Are you grinning?" She reached up behind her head to feel for his face.

Laughing, he fake growled and nipped at her fingers, causing her to squeal. "Careful love, you'll poke me in the eye."

Anne went to turn so she could face him and realized how big a mess they had made. She sat up and grimaced, looking at the covers.

Kendrick shook his head, went to the center of the room, and picked up his clothes, which now resembled a long gown.

"Didn't you have pants?"

Kendrick nodded. "Yes, but if I don't have them on for a certain period of time, the garment returns to its original state. Come here."

Anne gingerly hopped off the bed and stood in front of him.

He unbuttoned the gown and laid it across the bed where they had just made love.

"Kendrick! It's going to get dirty." She went to reach for it, but he stopped her.

"And for my next magic trick." He swept the fabric off the bed and it was as clean as it was at the beginning of the night. Anne sniffed; actually, it was cleaner. It now smelled like it had just come in off the line.

He pulled her close and wrapped the gown around them. Seconds later, her body was clean and even her teeth felt brushed. She stepped out of the gown and spun around check her body.

"That is amazing!"

"Now, I believe the order was second option, first one twice, and then back to the second?" Kendrick stalked toward her.

Giggling, she ran for the bed. His magic clothes were going to get quite a workout.

The next morning, they had already checked on Keelan and were just sitting down to enjoy their first cup of coffee when Anne heard loud footsteps racing down the stairs. Anne looked around, and only Darian and Amelia were absent.

The door flew inward, and a completely panicked Darian ran in holding a bundle of clothes.

Aiden stood. "Darian? What's wrong?"

Darian just stared in horror as the lump of clothes began moving. Seconds later, the head of a puffy German Shepard puppy emerged. It gave the cutest bark and looked around the room, tail wagging.

"Oh, my god! It's so cute!" Anne exclaimed.

Meryn had already hopped out of her chair and had raced over to Darian. "He's so cute!" Meryn gave him no choice and tugged the puppy out of his arms. She rubbed her cheek over the puppy's head over and over again. She turned to Aiden. "Can we keep him?"

"No!" Aiden and Darian exclaimed together.

Darian tried to get the puppy back, but Meryn kept turning her body. "Meryn, give her back!"

Meryn ignored his request. "How do you know it's a girl?"

"Because that's Amelia!" Darian shouted, chest heaving.

Lily set her cup down on her saucer. "Amelia Violet Ironwood, what have you gotten yourself into?"

Darian whirled to Kendrick. "Fix her, please!" he begged.

Meryn laughed. "She's so fluffy, I'm gonna die!"

Kendrick frowned as the puppy licked Meryn's face repeatedly. "I've never seen this before."

"Never?" Darian asked, looking ill.

Kendrick shook his head. "Nope, never."

They both stared at Meryn and puppy Amelia, and finally, Kendrick turned to Darian. "Do you like dogs?"

Darian's mouth dropped open. He turned from Kendrick to Amelia and back again.

Marshall chuckled. "Amelia, doing spells like that, you'll have people thinking you're a shifter's daughter."

Rheia's look became thoughtful. "Or if she's pregnant right now, she could end up having puppies, then everyone will think they're Colton's."

Darian pulled at his long blond hair with both hands frantically.

Anne finally took pity on him and turned to her mate. "Is there nothing you can do?"

Kendrick sighed. "I suppose, but she is awfully adorable this way."

Crestfallen, Meryn looked at him. "Do we hafta?"

Kendrick stood and gathered up the forgotten clothing from the floor and walked over to Meryn. "You'd miss your cousin eventually. May I?"

Meryn kissed Amelia on the top of her fuzzy head and handed her over to Kendrick.

Kendrick lifted the puppy to eye level. "You never stop getting into trouble, do you?" He carried her out into the hallway, Darian right behind him.

Anne felt a surge of power, and a minute later, Kendrick was walking back into the dining room. "Back to normal," he announced.
