Page 77 of What Lies Beyond the Realms

“Stop what, Lyra? You don’t want to talk anymore now that it's about what information you’re withholding? Don’t play coy with me.”

Gods, I knew dodging his questions was going to come back and haunt me. I put my hands on his chest, pushing him back, but he doesn’t budge. He just grabs my hands, holding them there.

“Now you’re going to shove me away instead of talking to me. We played the question game, and you drank instead of answering me. Earlier you blatantly lied to me, and before you tried to distract me by kissing me instead of talking to me. Now you’re going to resort to shoving me away. What are you hiding, Lyra? Why won’t you just talk to me?”

“Fuck you, Nyx.” I turn to leave, but he grabs my arm. It’s not hard, but it’s firm enough to stop me. When I turn back to scowl at him, he’s smiling. He has a wicked grin on his face.

“Why are you smiling like that?” I feel my temper rising.

“I’ve never seen you so hot and bothered like this. Such a dirty mouth.”

“Oh, you’re turned on now that I said the word ‘fuck.’” I turn to hit him away, and he grabs both my wrists, holding them above my head and moving in so close I can feel his breath on my lips.

“Oh, I’m very turned on by you. Your temper, your flushed cheeks, and your naughty mouth.”

I’ve backed up as far as I can go now. I suck in a breath as Nyx leans into me, my back firm against the wall.

“I’d follow you into darkness any day, Princess.”

I look down, eyes wide as Nyx presses into me. He’s not lying. I can see his arousal in his pants. It causes my face to heat for a totally different reason. I meet his eyes, and they’re glowing now. I lean in like I’m going to whisper something in his ear, but instead I run my tongue up the side of his neck and bite his earlobe.

“Fuck, that’s it.” Nyx gathers me up in his arms so quick, carrying me toward the bedroom.

“I can walk.”

“I’ve grown rather fond of carrying you around like this.” He drapes me over his shoulder and gently slaps my butt, eliciting a yelp.

“I’ve been thinking about getting you in this bed all day,” he says, sitting me down on the edge of the bed.

The bed in here is intimate and cozy with lots of furs piled on top of it. I start to undo my jacket, but Nyx grabs my hands stopping me.

As I sit here, my heart racing with anticipation, Nyx steps closer to me. His eyes are filled with hunger, and his hands are reaching for me. He takes his time unbuttoning the large buttons on the front of my jacket and gently slides each arm free. I feel the cool air hit my skin, and a shiver runs through me.

He pulls my sweater off over my head, and I feel his fingers trail along my skin. I close my eyes and let out a soft moan as he runs his hands up and down my arms before guiding them up and pulling my shirt off over my head, exposing my breasts. He tosses the shirt with the rest of my clothes on the dresser. Nyx walks in front of me, looking me over with a hungry expression.

“Lie back,” he says, and I fall back on my elbows, watching him as he moves to grip my leggings around my hips and gently tugs them off one leg at a time. He kneels down on the ground, lifting my ankle and pressing kisses along it, then moving further up my leg. He licks and nibbles at my thigh, causing me to squirm. He stands to look me over as I lie completely bare in front of him.

I can feel the heat rising between us, and my body is humming with need. My eyes are locked onto his, and I can see the desire burning within them. “Your turn,” I tell him, nodding at his clothes.

I watch him as he removes his shirt, revealing his muscled chest and arms. He kicks off his boots and slides off his pants, releasing his hard length. I can’t stop staring, my eyes transfixed on his body. He walks over to me, and I feel his hands tracing up my legs.

“If you keep looking at me like that, I won't be able to control myself,” Nyx says, and I smile seductively, biting my lip.

“I can’t help it. I want you.”

“How do you want me, Lyra?” he asks, pushing my legs apart with his knee.

I shudder with anticipation. “Filling me...now please,” I whisper as he kneels down and pushes a finger inside me.

I run my hands through his hair, and a gasp escapes my lips as his face drops to my center, his tongue twirling around my clit. I can barely take it, the way his tongue and fingers undo me. He works me over with his tongue until my body is shaking with pleasure. Only then does he lift his head up to look at me, his lips glistening with my moisture. He slowly removes his fingers and works his way up my body.

“Now you’re ready for me to fill you,” he says as he thrusts his cock inside me in one swift motion, causing me to gasp. I wrap my legs around him, pulling him close to me so I can explore his mouth with my tongue. I bite down on his bottom lip just enough to make him groan and thrust into me harder.

He palms my breasts and takes one into his mouth, nibbling on my nipple just enough to make me inhale sharply beneath him. He thrusts inside me hard and stops there, not moving. He moves his hands to my face and wraps his arms around me.

“Look at me, Lyra,” he says, his voice low and husky.

I meet his glowing gray eyes, and he starts to move inside me again. This time he goes much slower. He pulls all the way out then slowly thrusts all the way back in until my body is coiled tight with pleasure. I stare into his eyes as he moves inside me. I wrap my legs around his waist and arch my back, giving him full access. Every inch of him fills me, and I can feel the intensity building inside me again. I run my hands over his muscular back, pulling him closer to me. I can feel the sweat on his skin as we move together, and it only heightens my desire for him.
