Her sweet sounds stirred my arousal yet again. My grizzly rubbed our shaft next to her pussy, wanting to see her come again.
“Come again, one more time,” he rasped.
Her fingers dug into my forearm, and I swallowed her scream as I kept my cock vibrating and used my hand to pull her ass closer to me so her pussy could rub against me.
Fuck I love how she gets off so damn easy.
She yawned, her eyes losing focus until they eventually closed.
“Keep doing that, and I will fall asleep.”
Hell, I fucking will. Maybe I will try some of thatfuck your partner while she is sleeping thing.
I hummed, pressing kisses on her forehead. “I need you to sleep. Your body will change a lot. I’ll take care of you, and I will not leave your side. I’m hoping our bond will take care of your nightmares.”
She hummed, nuzzling into my chest which had nearly grown all the hair I had shaved away the first time she had seen me.
“And little bee?”
She hummed again in response.
“If you have that dream again about the man handing you off to your parents, try and get a good look at his face. Will you do that for me?”
She opened her eyes, only to close them again, and nodded silently as she fell asleep.
With my mind reeling about her being awake after my bite, I held my mate in my arms. Her shoulder was still covered in blood, we were both covered in come and her arousal and the room reeked of sex.
My nose ran up her neck, already smelling my scent coating her body, and soon it would be embedded into her skin, and I would never have to worry about any male doubting who she belonged to. Even if her mark was covered or not.
I struggled with the idea of just laying here the rest of the night but ultimately decided to bathe my mate since she was still susceptible to germs in her weakened state. I pulled her glasses, which were clearly bent now, off her nose.
She won’t be needing those anymore.
I was sure Anaki was on the other side of the door, waiting for me to emerge.
I picked up my mate, able to hold her in just one arm, and pulled a blanket from the bed. I smiled, seeing the small patch of blood on the sheets.
It wasn’t much, she had been stretched enough, but fuck it felt good to see it. It was damn stupid to be proud of something so trivial. It didn’t matter; I was her first, and knowing no male had touched her and no other male would…
My grizzly stood on his hind legs in my mind, his roar letting me know his approval as well. He would have killed any bastard that had touched her too.
I cracked the door, seeing the lights were out and the dim light of the TV was still flickering. Anaki was curled up on his favorite chair under the blankets. I could almost see his blue dragon’s tail curled around him. I bet it was fucking adorable.
I hoped he found his mate soon, and I was sure he would. Out of all of the Iron Fang, I think he deserved it the most. Maybe I could put in a special request or some shit, but I was sure the goddess had some master plan.
As I bathed my mate, she didn’t stir. This was going more to my original plan after she was bitten. I’d never been so surprised that she was awake and talking after our bonding.
It still disturbed me that she didn’t go to sleep right away, and I was going to have to speak with the magic deities of the group to figure out why.
I gently bathed her in my arms, and she stayed curled up beside me, moaning softly. The mark on her shoulder had already healed quickly, and I pressed a soft kiss on her cheek as I let the warm water wash away the soap.
Once she was mostly dry, I put a towel over her body so she didn’t catch a chill. I didn’t need my mate getting sick because of my carelessness. I took one more sniff of her hair, already smelling our scents intermingling with one another. I smiled, excited that I finally had her. She was completely mine.
“Is she okay?” Anaki sneaked up on me as I opened the door to the bathroom.
I was still naked, but of course, my brother didn’t care. “Uh, yeah.” I held my mate close. I didn’t think it was possible, but I’d become more territorial over her. I didn’t want Anaki near her, but I also knew he was like a blood brother to me and would never do anything to hurt her.
“Sorry I bothered you.” He scratched his head. “I just got excited for you. And you did it while I was here, and I was like the last to know.”
