He grinned, thrilled at how close she was before he’d really touched her. There would be time to play later. Right now, his mate needed to come, and he lived to give her what she needed. Lowering his head to taste her, Luca groaned. With Ash’s moans of pleasure spurring him on, he devoured her as she raced toward release. The ability to fulfill this woman’s desires made him feel like a god, and he coaxed her body to orgasm with loving attention.

Ash screamed his name and tightened the fingers buried in his dark hair as the first explosion of bliss hit her senses. Rather than giving her time to settle and come down from that peak, Luca redoubled his efforts and drove her higher. When the second orgasm hit, her toes curled and her legs shook. He thought he could manage one more before his cock rebelled and took action on its own. When Ash came a third time, she jerked her hips to the side, and they both felt another phantom jolt through the bond.

“No more,” she groaned. “It’s too much.”

He sat up and wiped a hand across his face, unable to hide his smirk. “I would apologize, but I’m not sorry. At all.”

Ash gave him a feral look. “Come here. Now.”

Luca dove at her, taking her mouth as his body ached to take hers. “Gods, Ash!” he moaned as she wrapped her legs around him.

“I need you.”

He pulled back to watch as he slid into her body. “Fucking hell,” he gasped when she’d taken all of him. Luca’s movements were slow at first, but the fire between them could not be denied. Their bodies moved in sync, and they set a wild rhythm that had her breasts bouncing and both of them crying out in ecstasy.

Luca looped an elbow around one of her knees for leverage, and Ash screamed her pleasure at the new angle. “Harder,” she pleaded.

He obliged, but Ash groaned in frustration. He thought he saw a hint of red flash in her eyes. “You’re holding back. I’m not human anymore, Luca. You aren’t going to break me!”

She was right. They both had supernatural endurance, and she was no longer limited by a human’s fragility. He’d fallen in love with her as a human, but her humanity wasn’t what he loved. His woman was in his arms. Luca didn’t hold anything back, his thrusts hard and deep as he made passionate love to his vampire mate.

They came together, and the intensity left them both reeling. As the pleasure washed over them, their bond healed more. The connection was still faint and spotty, but it was stronger.

Tears filled her eyes, and she held on to him like she was afraid he’d float away. “Do you feel that?”

Their bodies were still joined, and Luca looked at his mate, astonished. “I do, but how?”

Ash grinned at him. “You know what this means, right?”

“What’s that?”

She looked at her wrist, although she wasn’t wearing a watch. “We have eleven hours left and should spend every second making love. Apparently, we can heal the bond with orgasms.”

Luca laughed and gasped at the friction as he pulled away from her to lie beside her on the bed. “It’s about time that something works in our favor.” He took one of her nipples into his mouth while his hand caressed the other breast.

“We should always include orgasms in our problem-solving plans…” Ash’s voice trailed off into a moan. “That feels so damned good. I want you again already.”

Luca, whose desire was growing from embers to inferno again, moved to lean against the padded headboard. Lit by the soft glow of the candles, she was exquisite, and he would never have enough of her. He would always want her more than his next meal or the sunrise or even breath. “Ride me, Ash.”

She straddled him and slid onto his hard length, smiling at the fullness she experienced when he was buried inside her. They were going to heal their bond if they had to fuck themselves half to death to do it.

CHAPTER FIVE

Therian Royal Palace, Afternoon, Sunday, November 25, 2012

Luca was sitting in his office, examining the preliminary plans for the new palace, when his phone chimed to indicate that he had a new message. As important as the work was to the kingdom, its monotony made him grateful for the break. He picked up the device and saw that the message was from Viktorija.

Watch this video right now. We have trouble brewing, and we need to handle it. Fast.

The text contained a link to a YouTube video. Luca tried to control his anxiety as he clicked on it. If it bothered Viktorija, they did have a problem. The video showed an enormous, intoxicated man in what appeared to be a German pub, shouting in English with an American accent.

It looked like a bar fight, with attackers coming at the large man from several directions. Luca wondered why Viktorija wanted him to watch the video…until the drunken moron shifted into a bear. The room erupted in chaos, with bar patrons screaming and knocking each other over in their rush to scramble out of the way.

Well, shit. That is a problem.

Nadya had drained a news anchor on live television and openly sent her vampire minions to attack human cities, so humans were on the lookout for any hint of the supernatural world. Their days of hiding were numbered. Luca had considered lifting the edict on secrecy after he took the throne and met with world leaders. He hadn’t made the decision yet, but this idiot would force his hand if he didn’t do something.

Growling in frustration, Luca flipped through an address book until he found the contact information for the duke of the werebear clans in Germany. Each shifter clan had a king or queen who reported to Luca, but they all had numerous dukes who were responsible for controlling the shifters in their territories.
