“We really need to talk about the fact you’re not using a condom,” she muttered when she had enough breath to talk.
He growled behind her, scraping his teeth over the mark and sending another round of tremors through her. She was just getting her breath again when he tugged free and stepped away from her. She lowered her head to the edge of the sink as he reached around her to turn the water on softly. She should move, so he could clean up. She needed to clean up too.
He caught her off guard when he put one hand on the small of her back and used the other to work a washcloth between her legs. She should be embarrassed, but she found it sweet instead.#p#分页标题#e#
“We really should be using condoms,” she told him.
He growled as she moved aside and began pulling her clothes on.
“I’m serious, Tah, and growling isn’t going to change that fact.”
He leaned his hips into the sink as he washed his cock. Then he dried it and tucked it away in his boxer briefs before jerking his jeans up and turning to her. He bent to grab her shirt and handed it to her, then leaned in, crowding her against the wall.
“There will be nothing between us. Ever.”
“Tah?”
“Never, Abby. You will not get your way in this.”
“It’s my decision too!”
“Tell me you don’t love how I feel inside you. Tell me you want a barrier, separating my skin from yours?”
She opened her mouth and then shut it. Damn him. She couldn’t lie to him. She wouldn’t.
“You are mine.”
“What does that have to do with using a condom?”
He shook his head. “Pay closer attention when we have sex later, and tell me if you think it will work for me to use a condom.”
“What does that mean?”
“Let’s go, Abby. We’ve taken more time than we should have.” His fingers smoothed over her cheek. “I need to get you out of here, need to get you somewhere safe, while we figure this all out.” He bent close and rubbed his nose against hers. “I don’t think I’d survive if anything happened to you.”
She shrugged off the embarrassment when they walked out and found Reno and Logan waiting on them. She had little doubt they had heard well enough to know what had taken place in the bathroom. But as she watched Tah toss his keys to Logan, she felt it was more than worth it. Tah needed her safe, and she needed him safe…and sane.
Now, they were finally on the road. Reno was driving while Tah rode shotgun. Abby was lying down across the backseat of the truck, a stolen pillow under her head, doing her part to appease Tah by staying hidden. Logan followed them on Tah’s motorcycle, so Abby had gotten her way in the end. And she’d had another round of incredible sex before they left, making her pretty content right now.
Tah had one arm slung over the seat reaching toward where she lay, his fingers playing with a long strand of her hair as he and Reno talked. She, on the other hand, was lost in the thoughts he’d planted in her mind just before they’d walked out of the bathroom.
Pay closer attention when we have sex later, and tell me if you think it will work for me to use a condom.
Now, she could think of nothing but his cock and having sex. And every heated look he sent her way told her he was more than aware of that little fact. It was driving her crazy. She could recall every position, every angle. The how, when, and where of it. But she couldn’t put her finger on what he knew but wasn’t sharing with her. Something he expected her to realize on her own.
But how could she when he was her first? It wasn’t like she could compare him to another man. She’d seen a penis before. She wasn’t so naive that she hadn’t watched a video or two and seen plenty of pictures. But Tah was the only one she’d seen up close, the only one she’d taken inside her body, sucked into her mouth. She had no comparison.
So, what was it? What was his body doing that made him think a condom wouldn’t work? She let her mind go through the information she knew about lions mating.
Lions had barbs, sharp barbs that flared out all over the penis when he was inside his mate. The barbs scraped along the female’s walls in an attempt to send her body into heat and make her ovulate. It was pleasurable during the moment for the lioness, until the lion withdrew from her, barbs still extended. This caused the lioness pain, which studies suggested was another way of forcing ovulation so conception could occur.#p#分页标题#e#
She would definitely know if Tah had barbs. It would be hard to miss if he was scraping and hurting her every time he pulled out. She shuddered. Please don’t let the animal emerge in that way. She was growing way too fond of sex with Tah.
