“You taste so good. I need to taste you everywhere.” Marco gave my breast one more swipe and then ducked lower. I whimpered in dismay when his hand left my sex, but it was only to ease my leggings down. A second later, he’d lowered his face between mylegs.
Like West in my dream. Fragments of that imagined intimacy darted through my head as Marco swirled his tongue over my clit. I gasped, arching up, and he licked lower, teasing my opening. Carried on the rising wave of bliss, I almost felt as if both he and West were there, my dream and reality merging into one. The ache in my belly came back, twice as strong. My hips bucked, wanting more. Wantingeverything.
I gripped Marco’s hair, but he didn’t release his claim on my pussy. He laved my clit until I was trembling. One finger, then two tested my wetness and then slid up inside me. I moaned again as the pleasure rosehigher.
Marco nipped me, just hard enough to send a brief spark of pain through the pleasure, and that tipped me over. I came, shuddering against his mouth. The orgasm washed over me, and the stars Marco had promised flashed behind myeyes.
Marco smiled and kissed my sex again as my tremors subsided. He eased up beside me, pulling my body flush against his, and brushed his lips against mine. My tart flavor lingered in his mouth. I pressed closer to him, sated and yet still hungry. The hard length of him bulged against the fly of his pants. His hips rocked against me as his hands caressed my ass, sending fresh sparks all through mynerves.
It would be so easy to peel off his pants and open myself to him. To solidify our mate-bond and tie us together forlife.
“Ren,” Marco mumbled against my mouth. I heard the wanting in his voice. An awful lot of me wanted it too. But as we rolled with him on top of me now, my gaze dropped to West’s empty sleepingbag.
This whole encounter had started with the wolf shifter. With him and that scorching dream. And here I was getting down and dirty with Marcoinstead.
Could I really knowwhatI wanted right now, in the heat of the moment? The mate-bond, it was for life. When I accepted it with each of the guys, I wanted to be absolutely sure, no room for doubts. No misguided lust clouding mythoughts.
Marco adjusted himself over me so our bodies aligned perfectly. His erection pressed between my legs. I was drowning in the heat ofhim.
I touched his cheek and eased him back after another kiss. He grinned down at me, his eyes so bright with longing that guilt twisted my stomach. The grin faltered when he took in myexpression.
“Princess?”
I drew in a shaky breath. “I’m sorry. I don’t think I’m ready. Not quiteyet.”
He couldn’t hide the disappointment that darted across his face before he schooled it into his usual cool nonchalance. He nuzzled my hand, his smile coming back. “Ren, I’m not going to push. But you understand why I want you so much, don’t you? My lovely Princess of Flames. You have no idea how much you mean to mealready.”
The soft words brought a flutter into my chest. “You hardly know me,” I couldn’t help pointingout.
“I know you enough.” He bent his head close to mine, not to kiss me but to whisper by my ear. The rich spicy-coffee scent of him filled my nose. My mouth practicallywatered.
“I know you’re the most determined woman I’ve ever met,” he said. “I know you’ll do anything to defend the people you love. I know you’ve got a sharp enough tongue to rival mine sometimes. I’ve never cared about anyone as much as I care for you. You can take that as apromise.”
The flow of his words against my ear left me tingling. He moved above me, and I almost whimpered at the feel of his cock, still hard against me. My fingers gripped his shoulders. He rocked against me gently, sending quivers through my core. It was getting hard to think again. So much of me was screaming for anotherrelease.
“And I hope you have at least a few positive feelings about me,” Marco addedlightly.
“I think that should be pretty obvious,” I muttered, but that flippant answer didn’t feel good enough. “It’s not about you. This whole situation just—it still doesn’t feel normal to me. I’ve never committed to anyone, let alonefourguys in just a few days. You grew up knowing it’d be like this. I can’t wrap my head around the idea thatfast.”
“I know, princess. I know.” He stilled and kissed my cheek. “I’ll wait. I just can’t help wanting to start our lives together as quickly as possible now that I’ve foundyou.”
My throat tightened a little at the emotion in those words. “I’ll be ready soon,” I said. “I’m gettingthere.”
At least, I hoped I was. The feelings in my chest suddenly felt a lot more tangled. Lust was easy. Love... Was I really going to be able to handle giving my whole heart to all four of these guys, as drawn to all of them as Iwas?
Chapter 6
Marco
I’d beenthrough plenty of pain in my life. You named it, I’d probably been there at least once. But I’d never experienced any torture quite as exquisite as waking up next to my mate who still wasn’t entirely mymate.
Ren was still sleeping. Her expression was soft and her hair a mess of dark brown waves spilling from the top of the sleeping bag. I wanted to kiss her gently like the angel she looked like—and I also wanted to pull her to me and ravish her until she agreed to finishing what we’d started and come so close to ending lastnight.
My cock hardened just remembering the feel of her. Her smell flooding my nose, her taste filling my mouth, the little cry she’d made as she came. I could take her even higher than that. All I needed was for her to give me thechance.
It was going to take time for her to come around. That was understandable. What we’d all been waiting for across nearly two decades, she’d only had a few days to process. I was a feline, wasn’t I? I knew how to give a personspace.
As painful as that space mightbe.
