Running his hand from her neck to her shoulder, and then down her back, he stopped to squeeze her hip. He merely stared, wanting to catch Nikki off guard.
Just as she opened her mouth to say something else, he retreated and moved forward again. He repeated the process; this time, the table inched forward with his thrust.
“Rafe.”
As he moved his hips back and forth, increasing his pace, he murmured, “Say my name again.”
She paused, and he moved even harder. Nikki groaned out, “Rafe.”
Mine.
Taking hold of her hips, he angled her better and kept up his fast pace. Nikki’s little moans and murmurs only made him more determined. He wanted to ruin her for all other men.
The sound of flesh slapping against flesh filled the room and drove Rafe harder. The pressure was building at the base of his spine, but he clenched his jaw. This was their first time together since the end of the frenzy, and he wanted Nikki to come first.
Keeping her hips lifted with one hand, he moved the other to the front of her body. He lightly brushed her clit before pressing firmly. Nikki screamed. As her pussy clenched and released his dick, Rafe let go and came hard. Much like during the mate-claim frenzy, Nikki cried out again, and her spasms continued for nearly a minute.
When she’d wrung the last dr
op from his cock, Rafe met Nikki’s satisfied gaze. Her dark brown eyes did something to his heart.
He wanted to greet her every morning this way—a little work followed by delicious “good morning” sex.
The thought of him and Nikki having a routine sent a wave of longing through his body, and he wanted nothing more than to hold her close.
Pulling out, he gently lifted her off the table and hugged her against his chest.
He placed his hand over her heart. It beat rapidly, much like his own. Then, gingerly, he moved his hand to cover her lower belly to acknowledge their child.
Nikki tensed. Holding his breath, Rafe waited to see what his dragonwoman would do.
After a few seconds, she sighed and leaned her head against his shoulder. “It still hasn’t sunk in, you know. The whole being pregnant thing.”
“If you start feeling ill, I’ll take care of you.”
She met his gaze. “Rafe, I can take care of myself.”
“Of course you can. It’s one of the things I admire about you. However, I’m not about to be an arsehole and laugh as you vomit all over the toilet.”
He waited to see if she’d protest yet again. But she merely melted completely against his body. He kissed her forehead as she murmured, “Leave it to you to take vomiting and turn it into something almost romantic.”
“It’s more for my benefit than yours. We’re sharing the bathroom, after all.”
She lightly slapped his arm wrapped around her middle. “And there goes the romantic aspect.”
Chuckling, he nuzzled the side of her head. “You’re the one who doesn’t want to be treated differently. I have to go to selfish reasons to keep up my end of the bargain.” He lowered his voice. “But it’s really all for you, Nikola Gray.”
“Okay, you being nice to me is a little weird.” Irritation flared, but before he could give a retort, Nikki continued, “But, in a strange way, I like knowing you’ll be there to help me.”
“Good. Because I need you to help me too. You’re bloody brilliant with arranging things with your clan and together we’ll sort out the Glenlough problem in no time.”
“I still can’t believe you’re keeping your word about all that. Dragon-shifter males can become quite Neanderthal when it comes to mates and babies.”
“So, are you saying human males are better?”
She frowned. “Not exactly.”
He grinned. “I think you are. I will have to lord that over the dragonmen at my first opportunity.”
