He growled, low in his throat, and felt her arms as they banded around his waist.He bent down and captured her lips in a kiss that was meant to be reassuring.Instead, it turned into an inferno within moments.It tortured him to pull back, but he needed to reassure himself that she was safe and in his arms.They stared at each other for several long minutes before she spoke.
“Reaper?”
“Yes, beautiful?”
“I’m sorry.”
“There is nothing to be sorry for,” Reaper said before his lips found hers.
The horror of the night had Ara clinging to him, kissing him back with fervor.He gathered her into his arms as he sat back against the headboard, and slanted her face before he devoured her mouth.His arms clutched her closer, and she sucked in a breath when she realized that he lay naked underneath her.She moaned her response, but took him by surprise when her teeth nipped at his bottom lip before she soothed the area with her tongue.
There was a desperation in both of them as her lips reconnected with his, and this time, his tongue darted in as he tasted her.The fear he sensed in her as he rushed into the room receded.Desire took over, and when she lowered her heat against his rigid cock, he surged up to meet her and moaned when his cock brushed against the fabric of her jeans.
“Reaper, I need you.”
Wanting to soothe her and show her how much he wanted her, would always want her, he reached for her t-shirt.Somewhere between him wanting to reassure her and her sexy moan of need, his patience had fled, and he ripped the material and discarded it on the floor, forgotten.Her bra soon followed, and he leaned forward and licked one nipple in a long stroke.
His whispered name burst through her swollen mouth, and when he glanced at her, all his doubts and fears fled.The trust that shone from her eyes, knowing that he would protect her and love her, caused his breath to squeeze in his chest.
He flipped her onto her back, and without glancing down, removed her jeans and her panties with one hard tug.He crawled up her body, brushing his hot skin against her coolness and cupped her face between both of his palms.
“You are mine, forever, Ara.My mate, my soul, and the woman I love.Do you understand?”
“Yes, Reaper, yes,” Ara cried.
“If you ever leave me, I’ll find you, beautiful.You are my life now.”
She whimpered at his words and as he pulled her in for a kiss, his hand slid between their bodies.He ran his fingers across her plump lips, feeling her wetness saturate his fingers.She surged her hips up to bury his fingers deep inside her, but he didn’t want anything to fill her other than his cock.
He positioned the head against her entrance, and when he felt her heavy pulse and the heat from her sex, he drove deep inside her and held.
A growl slipped from his throat as her inner muscles squeezed him.
Her legs wrapped around his waist as she reached to his shoulders and pulled him down for a kiss.Her hips surged several times, but he held still, trying to control his need for her.
“Please, Reaper, move,” Ara begged.
Wanting to give Ara everything, and needing her to find her pleasure, he cursed under his breath as he retreated a scant few inches.
She moaned as the friction from his small movement overwhelmed her.Her body arched toward his, and he became mesmerized by the flush on her face and chest, the way her nipples peaked, and her swollen lips from his kisses.
The desire that shone on her face drove him wild, and his hand opened on her hip, readying her for him.When he pressed her back onto the mattress, he plunged deep inside her.
“Oh, fuck, yes,” she moaned.
He chanted her name with each stroke, each lick of pleasure that traveled the length of his spine.Her legs clung to his hips, digging her heels into his ass, which only drove him deeper and deeper inside her.His mouth sought hers, and his tongue mimicked his cock, diving deep and tasting her as their bodies became slick with sweat.He broke their kiss and trailed his tongue over her neck, nipping the place where he’d marked her, and then lower.His teeth nibbled on her stiff nipples, drawing more sexy moans from deep in her throat.
While the roughness and need for her overwhelmed his senses, making his movements almost violent, he found that he couldn’t slow his thrusts.Not that it mattered to Ara; she kept begging for more.Yes, he loved her, and he would never hurt her, but his thrusts were battering, and yet she loved every moment.Her entire body clenched around him, moaning and cursing as she sought her release.
“Reaper, more, harder.”
If he’d had any sense at that moment, he would’ve realized how far gone he already was.But her words encouraged him to pump harder and faster, and soon, he could feel the shiver that was the start of her orgasm.He drove deeper, growling as her body kept moving underneath his.
“I’m going to mark you again, our mating mark.You will be mine, forever.”
Her eyes widened at his statement, but a smile ghosted on her lips before she pulled him down for a scorching kiss.They were both breathless when she pulled back.
“Yes, mark me.You’re mine, too,” she said.
