She laughed lightly, shifting her hips on the bed and then wishing she hadn’t done that, since it rubbed her panties against her sensitive flesh. “Why did you come in here?”
“I heard you moving around restlessly,” he said. “Imagine my surprise to come to the doorway and catch the scent of your arousal.” He inhaled and growled, and she caught a hint of deep amber glow from his eyes.
A shiver of arousal passed over her again and she bit her bottom lip.
“You can come closer,” she whispered.
“I don’t know if I should.”
“Why?”
“Because if I get close to you, I’m going to want to find out how hot and wet you are, taste your honey from the source. And then I’m definitely going to want to fuck you and mark you with my fangs and make you my mate in truth.”
“And you don’t want to do that?” she asked.
“I do. Very much. It’s all I can think about.” The doorway creaked as he gripped it, and she imagined his muscles bunching with the desire he was fighting to stay where he was and not join her.
“I’m all healed now. And there’s nothing I want more than to take you up on your offer.”
“Offer?”
“To find out how many times I can scream your name.”
There was a quiet, tense moment, and she wasn’t sure if he was going to come into the room and join her, or retreat out of some sense of honor and taking their time to get to know each other. But she didn’t need time to know that Ronan was her truemate or to know that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. It was early—very early—in their relationship and she didn’t love him. But she knew the feelings would come in time, and she was very on board with their relationship progressing physically while they spent time learning about each other.
What better way to get to know the most intimate things about each other than to tumble in the sheets?
He released his hold on the doorjamb and stalked to her. He planted one fist next to her head and cupped her face with the other. Tilting her head, she met his lips as he lowered his head to kiss her.
It seared her. Made her blood boil.
Spread prickles of awareness along her skin that she was being kissed by her truemate, the one male on the planet meant to be hers.
He didn’t kiss her so much as claim her, dancing his tongue along hers as he held her head just where he wanted it. She wrapped one hand around his biceps, then looped a finger through one of his belt loops, tugging lightly in hopes he’d maneuver his big body over hers.
He didn’t move, though. He just kissed her like he could climb down inside her.
Sucking gently on her bottom lip, he let go with a purr rumbling in his chest.
“Will you be my mate, Alanah?”
She blinked at him. “What?”
“I’m asking you to be my mate. We’ve talked about it, but I never asked you, not properly.”
He really was a good male.
Not like any fairy male she’d ever known.
“Yes.”
He snarled and gripped the center of the cami. “We can buy a new one for Serena.”
She was about to ask him what he meant when he shredded the cami from top to bottom and pushed the pieces aside. Her skin felt hot against the coolness of the room. He cupped one of her breasts and kissed her again, rubbing her nipple with his thumb and plucking at it until she writhed under him.
He cupped the other, playing with it. She pulled from his lips and gasped in a harsh breath.
Lowering his head, he caught her nipple in his mouth sucking on it and grazing it with his teeth. His hand slid down the center of her body, slipping under her panties. He gave a tug on her nipple, then released it with another growl.
