“Finish?”she repeated.
“Yes.”
“You mean come.Youwant me to let him come in my mouth.”
Ravik groaned and she wondered if he was understanding this exchange.
“Yes,”Severinsaid.“Ifyou’re willing.”
Cassie’s mouth went dry—which was inconvenient considering what she had been doing with it.
“And what is the scientific reason for that?”
Severin’s expression shifted, the arousal still there but threaded now with real thought…real concern and scientific calculation.
“Ravik’s seminal fluid may contain activeBeastKindredimmune factors,” he said.“Ifthe pleasure response is pushing the virus out of his neural pathways, those factors may be especially concentrated at climax.Hisbody could be producing a surge of anti-viral proteins, pheromonal markers, and mating hormones all at once.”
Cassie stared at him.
“And you thinkIshould…ingest them?”
“I think oral exposure may allow your body to sample those proteins through the mucosal tissues in your mouth and throat,” he said carefully.“Yourown blood is already resisting theHungerVirusin a wayIdon’t understand.Ifyou drinkRavik’sseed while his system is actively fighting the infection, it may strengthen whatever response your body is producing.”
“May,”she said.
“Yes.May.”Heshrugged.“Iwon’t lie to you,Cassandra—Idon’t know anhy of this for certain.Butit’s possible.”
Cassie looked back atRavik.
His eyes were clear now, gold and bright and fixed on her face.Therewas desire there, yes—so much desire it made her thighs press together—but also hope.Maybehedidunderstand what they were talking about.
“Do you want that?”she asked him softly.“Doyou want me to suck you until you come, big guy?”
Ravik’s golden eyes went half-lidded.
“I want to come in your mouth,” he said, the words rough but unmistakably clear.
She looked atSeverin.
“And you?Youwant me to do this, just for science?”
His eyes flared.
“No just for science—Iwant to watch,” he admitted.“Iwant to see you takeRavikin your mouth and suck him to completion until he spurts and you swallow it all.Iwant to watch you drink his cum.”
His words made her feel weak with desire.Cassiefelt her nipples tighten even more and her pussy was so wet she was sure her thighs were coated with her juices.
“Well,” she said, trying to sound brisk and not at all like she was throbbing between her legs, “Isuppose if this might help the cure…”
“It might,”Severinsaid.
“AndRavikneeds healing.”
“He does.”
“And apparentlyI’malready kneeling here anyway.”
“You are,”Severinmurmured.
