She’s mine,his rabbit said in his mind.I’m working on it, buddy.He cleared his throat. “That’s a nice reading nook.”

“I like the lighting.” She rested her hands against his chest. “I also like you.”

“Mmm…” He tucked a lock of coppery hair behind her ear. “That makes me a happy bunny.”

“How happy?” She ran her hands downward, but he caught them before they could reach their destination.

“I’m about to show you.” He gripped the back of his shirt and tugged it over his head.

She parted her lips as her gaze wandered down his form and up again. When her eyes met his, he could have sworn he saw forever inside them.

He closed the distance between them and moved her long hair aside to reach for her zipper. He slid it down and slipped his fingers beneath the shoulder straps, pulling them forward until her dress fell to the floor.

She wore a pink satin bra and matching panties beneath, and his heart thumped in his chest, pumping even more blood into his groin.

Mate, his rabbit reminded him.Yes. Yes, indeed.

He took her in his arms and crushed his mouth to hers. With a flick of his fingers, he unhooked her bra, and she threw it aside before leaning into him. Her skin was warm, silky soft against his, the sensation blinding him with desire. He needed Destiny like he’d never needed anything in his life.

She kicked off her shoes as he kissed her, and he did the same, fumbling with the button on his pants at the same time. Destiny laughed against his lips, never breaking the kiss as she popped it open and slid his zipper down.

Before he could work his pants over his hips, she reached into them, gripping his dick through his underwear. It throbbed in response, aching to be set free. Hooking his thumbs into the waistbands, he shoved the rest of his clothes to the floor and kicked them aside.

Destiny took a step backward, her gaze locking on his groin. “Very happy, I see.”

“You have no idea.” He moved toward her and grabbed her ass before sliding his hands to the backs of her thighs and lifting her from the floor. She fell backward onto the bed, her squeal turning into a delightful giggle and she shimmied to the center of the mattress.

A ray of sunlight fell across her body, giving her an ethereal glow, despite her lack of magic. Her hair glittered, and her blue eyes shown in a way that only his fated mate’s could. He inhaled deeply, her arousal tinting the sweet vanilla-lavender scent of her skin and making his mouth water.

He joined her on the bed, slipping her panties off, giving himself access to every magnificent part of her. He lay atop her, nuzzling into her neck, basking in her glory. “You are the most beautiful creature I have ever seen.”

He kissed her cheek, her lips, the hollow dip at the base of her neck. Trailing his lips downward, he kissed between her breasts before moving to a nipple. As he sucked the delicate pearl into his mouth, she inhaled a quick breath.

“Is it true what they say about rabbits?” She tangled her fingers in his hair.

“That we can multiply like nobody’s business? Yeah, but lucky for us, angels and fae can’t reproduce.” He flicked out his tongue, bathing her other nipple before giving it a light nip with his teeth.

She let out a slow, satisfied hiss. “I meant the battery commercial.”

He chuckled and rose onto his hands. “That we keep going…”

“And going, and going…” Her voice was breathy, the desire in her eyes almost more than he could take. Almost…

“You’ll just have to wait and see.” He kissed his way down her stomach, spreading her legs and settling his shoulders between them. “First I want to know if you taste as sweet as you look.”

He swiped his tongue up her center, pausing on her clit and circling it twice.

She gasped and gripped the sheets. “And?”

“Undetermined. I think I need another taste.” He bathed her sensitive nub in wet heat, making her moan. “Mmm… I’ll definitely need more than a few bites.” He licked her again, sucking her clit between his lips and working circles with his tongue.

“Ohhh…” she said, though it was more breath than word. “Oh, Pete.”

He moaned against her, slipping two fingers inside her, and she writhed in pleasure beneath him, every sound she made, every breath she breathed turning him on in a way he was absolutely certain he had never experienced before.

She belonged to him.

And it was his duty to please her.
