“I do.”Severinsurprised her by reaching down to take her by the chin.Heheld her gently but firmly and looked into her eyes.“Youneed pleasure, sweetheart,” he said, andCassiethought she heard a faint warning growl in his voice.
“I…Ido?”she whispered.
He nodded.
“You do.Andyou need to come.Andyou might need male seed, too—we’ll have to see about that.Butfor now, you need to get over being shy and letRavikandIhelp you or this virus is going to overwhelm your system.”
“Shy, what do you mean,shy?”she scoffed.“I’mnaked between you—aren’tI?”
“You know what we’re doing isn’t nearly enough,” theBloodKindredtold her sternly.“Youneed more—a hell of a lot more.”Hestroked her cheek.“Iunderstand that you don’t want to get fucked together—we won’t go there.Butyou’re going to have to spread your legs for us and let either one or both of us in.You’regoing to need to let us taste you.”
“What?”Cassie’svoice came out in a kind of squeak.“Why…Idon’t understand why you think that’s…that’s necessary?”
“Because the more of our saliva and other fluids get into your system, the more we can lower your viral load,”Severinexplained patiently.“Theblood samplesItook from you after you’d takenRavik’sseed in your mouth and pussy were dramatically lower in viral load than the onesItook before.”
“You…so you need to…”
“Need to taste your sweet pussy,Cassie,”Ravikrumbled from behind her—clearly he was following this conversation just fine, she thought distractedly.“Needto spread your pussy with my tongue and taste your honey from the source.”
“It would be beneficial for both of you if you letRaviktaste you,”Severintold her.“Themore of your honey he gets, the lower his viral load goes as well.”Hestroked her cheek again.“Idon’t know why you’re so resistant to being tasted.”
“I just…IguessI’venever been with a man who really, er,wantedto do it,”Cassieadmitted.“Myfirst husband,Mitch, absolutely refused andSskarthtried a few times but his tongue was long and thin and forked—it didn’t feel very good and besides, he didn’t like it thatIwas ‘wet down there’ as he put it.”
Severin’s eyes narrowed.
“Both your ex-mates were fools.There’snothing better than tasting the woman you love.”
Cassie bit her lip.Hadhe actually said the “L” word?Butsurely he didn’t mean it.Afterall, she hadn’t even known either of them that long.
“Look, sweetheart—Ican tell you’re nervous,” he murmured.“Howabout ifIhold you in my arms whileRavikgoes down on you?Ican talk you through it—it might make things easier if you feel overwhelmed.”
Cassie was touched by his care and kindness.
“Well…all right,” she said at last.“I…Iguess that would be okay.”
“Good girl,” he murmured and he smiled, flashing fangs that were long and sharp-looking.“Comeon—let’s get you into position.”
Before she knew it,Cassiewas lying on her back withSeverinbehind her, cradling the top half of her body against his broad, bare chest.
Ravik was between her spread thighs, and eager hunger in his golden, half-lidded eyes.
“I get to tasteCassie?Getto eat her pussy?”TheBeastKindred’sdeep voice was a hungry growl.
“Yes, butgently,”Severinadmonished him.“Remember—human women are delicate.”
“I can be careful.”Raviksounded slightly offended.“Ravikknows how to taste a woman and give her pleasure without hurting her.”
Severin raised his eyebrows.
“So you do.I’veseen it several times.Allright, then let’s get our lady ready for pleasure.”
As he spoke, he cupped both ofCassie’sbare breasts in his big warm hands and began lightly teasing her nipples.
“Oh!”she moaned, arching her back.God, her whole body felt so sensitive—soneedy.Shereally hoped that lettingRavikgo down on her helped because if it didn’t, she didn’t know what else to do.
