Approaching the high bed, he gently lay her back.
Arms tight around his neck, she pulled him down so that he leaned on his elbows, looking into her beautiful face.
Red hair fanned out behind her head on the duvet, and he gave into the desire to touch it again, running the silky strands between his fingertips. One of his favorite things to do.
“Kai.”
His eyes flicked back to hers instantly. He released the curls to trace the delicate line of her brow. “Astred.”
She swallowed, once. “I love you.” Twice. “I always have. Since the moment we met.”
He smiled, his thumb slid over her cheekbone. “I know.” He touched his lips to hers. “I’ve always known. I just had to wait for you to know it, too.” He breathed next to the shell of her ear.
Astred opened her eyes into his, closer now, irises reacting to his inner power as he stared into her. She purred, inviting him to touch her.
Kai growled against her throat, dragon and tiger urging him to take her.
He would, but not yet.
Her skin was soft and silky under his palms as he caressed her breasts, ribs, flat belly down to her hips and thighs, until she writhed from his attention. His lips followed his hands, licking, tasting, delving until she was slick and begging.
He became engorged,knowingshe’d never begged anyone else for anything in her life. Still, he ignored her pleas, pushing her just a little further.
Unable to take any more, she pushed him back, straddling him.
Locking his arms around her, he sat up so that they were face to face.
She held his gaze as she took him into her warm channel with a gasp.
Locking her in place with his hands, she rotated her hips, grinding against him.
He held her gaze as she worked faster. Rising together.
I see you. I know you.
Her lips parted, her channel gripped hard with her cry.
All of you. Forever.
He gave in, tumbling over the edge with her.
Always.
