“It is beautiful,” she says. “There is so much to see inside these walls.”

“And what of me? Do you feel the need to learn everything about me as well, little dragon?”

Her green eyes darken, her pupils blowing up until the tiniest strip of green is all that’s left. I smell her arousal like perfume on the air around us. My dick tightens in my pants and no matter how much I try, I can’t get it to stop throbbing like a wild thing.

“I want to know you so well that I could paint you with my eyes closed,” she says. My breath catches.

“The amulet is gone. Can you feel the bond between us?” I hold my breath. I want her so much that I know she’s mine. Does she feel the same?

Gold glows in her eyes and I see her dragon glowing under the surface of her skin. It’s like seeing two different entities at the same time. One superimposed over the other, the other one fighting to burst free. Her light skin flushes red and I can see her struggling.

“I feel it. My dragon feels it.” She moves closer and her fingertips graze along my arm, dragging across my sleeve so softly that I almost can’t feel it. Except for the burn wherever she touches.

I can’t stop it. Can’t tame it. My fingers tingle with desire and my head reels with desire. The scent of her is driving me mad.

I lick my lips and growl.

She grins like a wild thing. “You growl like my dragon.”

“That’s my magic. It’s wild and untamed. But I can keep it under control mostly. Except when you touch me. Then all bets are off. So if you don’t want me to take you and claim you for life, stay back.”

She cocks her head to the side, her coral lips opening on a pant. “I like the sound of that,” she growls. Her green gaze slides down my body like she owns me. “I want your wild. I want to make you lose control.”

I move closer, my hand lifting of its own volition. I can’t stop myself. I need to touch her. My hand skims along her delicate cheekbones and curves to hold her jaw gently. I stand in front of her and my lips come so close to hers that I can feel her soft breaths puffing on my superheated skin.

“Tell me to stop. Tell me it’s too soon. If you need more time, please for the love of god, tell me to step away.” My voice is raspy and thick with desire.

“I don’t want you to leave. I don’t want any more time. I just want you.” Her voice is rough and desperate. I can hear the dragon throbbing inside her voice. Hear the deep notes of lust and hunger as she melts into me.

Most men would be afraid of the power behind her animal. I’m not. I’m thrilled to have a strong mate. A mate that’s my match in every single way.

Her lush curves are more than skin-deep. She’s a mate that can’t be broken by my desire. I like that. I love that actually. Love that she’s right there with me. Ready to tip over the edge into our shared hunger.

My lips find hers, claiming her roughly, almost angrily. She meets me with the same fervor. Her tongue slips inside my mouth and swirls with mine, dancing and slipping alongside it while I struggle to breathe, struggle to rein in the furious desire that overwhelms me.

My fingers tug at her shirt and jeans, almost shredding them. “I need to see you. All of you.”

She growls and the sound makes me dick jerk angrily. I’m achingly hard and I don’t know how much more I can take. “Fuck, I need you so damn bad. I cannot fight this anymore.”

“Don’t fight it,” she grumbles, her voice dark with lust.

Her fingers tangle in my hair as she tugs at me desperately. Her long claws scratch at my skin and I realize her dragon is so close that she’s half-shifted, her claws distended and her skin covered in glistening, flame-red, transparent scales.

“You’re so damn beautiful, Serenity. I can see your dragon and she’s magnificent.”

Her head tips back, her coral lips full and bruised from my kiss. I can just see the glint of sharp eyeteeth and my pulse jumps.

My hand closes around her shirt and I rip it to shreds. She gasps and flushes but doesn’t attempt to cover her light golden skin. Pale freckles dapple her skin and I want to trace every single one of them with my tongue.

For just a moment my senses return and guilt wracks me. “I should take you upstairs and make love to you like you deserve.”

She chuckles and it sends shivers skittering along my skin. “I want to stay here.” Her eyes dance around the boundary of the windows and the sunlight streaming inside. Green trees and woods dance outside and she glows with happiness.

“I love this room.”

I do too. I always thought it was the power of my ancestors and the crystals grounding the room that attracted me. Now I realize it’s the wildness creeping inside of the seductive richness of the human trappings.

“I should love you for hours on a bed. But I don’t think I can stop this. I can’t control how much I want you this time.”
