Shifters in the Shadows(15)

“Come here,” he whispered in a ragged tone.

When she reached him, she pushed the straps on her dress over her shoulders. They slid down with a sensual caress. She held the garment in place while he reached for her upper arms.

“Let me.”

The rough scrape of his palms against her skin thrilled her racing pulse. She sucked in a shaky breath as he pushed the fabric down. The dress rippled over the tops of her breasts before fluttering down her thighs. She trembled before him. Naked. Vulnerable. But filled with a craving so intense, it threatened to overwhelm her.

Clad in only a bra and panties, she stepped into his arms. He splayed his palms across her back and pulled her close. When his lips captured hers, she moaned.

“I want to taste every inch of you,” he murmured. “I want to see every inch of you.”

He deftly unhooked her bra and slid it down her arms. It dropped to the floor, leaving her taut nipples exposed to the chilly air. When his hands closed over her breasts, she whimpered.

“You’re so beautiful,” he sighed.

“Kiss me.”

As his mouth covered hers, she sank her fingers into his thick hair. She pulled him in to deepen the kiss. He didn’t need any encouragement. The determined sweep of his tongue parted her lips. Electric sparks of yearning ignited a fire in her belly. She couldn’t stand not being able to touch every inch of him, so she unclasped the button on his jeans, then yanked the zipper down.

He didn’t protest as she pushed his jeans down. They puddled on the floor. After he stepped out of them, he kicked them away. Her hands found his boxers. She reached inside to wrap her hand around the length of him. He shivered against her as she stroked his hard cock. It was as soft as silk, and as rigid as steel. She stepped back, desperate to see all of him.

“Oh,” she gasped.

He was huge. At least ten inches of potent, virile masculinity swept up to greet her. She swallowed and looked up to meet his smoldering gaze. As he brushed his hands over her hips, she trembled. He pulled her panties down past her thighs, but didn’t stop until he was kneeling before her.

As if worshiping her, he pressed soft, sensual kisses across her thighs. He cupped the backs of her knees and held her in place. When his lips traveled up toward her slick folds, she whimpered. The first graze of his mouth against her soft mound ratcheted up the tension in her body. Already on the verge of bursting, she could only groan as his tongue darted out to trace spirals of wet heat.

She stumbled backward toward the bed. He crawled across the floor like a wild panther stalking its prey. Everything about the feral intent in his eyes added to her growing intoxication.

When he crawled onto the bed with her, she fell back into the pillows. Without giving her a moment to catch her breath, he parted her thighs and delved between them to swirl his tongue against her delicate folds. She cried out as he lashed his tongue against her with wicked strokes.

Her hands clawed at his back, leaving long scratches in their wake. He clamped his hands around her thighs and pulled her closer. No one had ever taken her with such deliberate passion. She soared as each balmy stroke pushed her closer to the edge.

“Please,” she begged. “Oh, God.”

He found the hard nub of ultra-sensitive flesh and sucked lightly. She screamed as she plunged into an all-consuming orgasm. Tremors of erotic release racked her body as blazing, unfurling waves of release flowed through her to liquefy her limbs.

She collapsed against the bed and tried to clamp her legs shut. Even the slightest breath was enough to fan the flames.

“I need you,” he groaned.

“I—”

Before she could respond, he eased between her thighs. He pushed damp strands of hair from her face before lowering down to kiss her senseless. Tenderness gave way to passion as he slipped his tongue between her lips. She parted for him and arched as he slowly eased to fill her with every inch of his cock.

They moved in perfect unison. Every caress transmitted the intensity of his need. He held himself aloft with one hand while using the other to tease and coax her to greater heights of ecstasy.

With each deep thrust, she coiled herself tighter against him. Her legs wrapped around his waist. Slick with sweat, she could hardly hold onto him. But she did. She couldn’t imagine being anywhere else but in his arms.

As his breath came in shorter and shorter gasps, she rolled her hips to meet his. His gaze locked with hers and the intimate connection sent her tumbling into bliss. He followed her in an explosive rumble of growled release. Heat flooded her core as he shivered against her.

For several minutes, they lay wrapped in each other’s embrace. When he finally rolled to lie by her side, she scooted into the crook of his arms. He trailed his fingers in lazy circles across the edge of her breast.
