“Do your worst,” she dared me.
And I complied.
Time and space lost all meaning. Anything that wasn’t Dawn, that wasn’t our bodies coming together as one in a savage dance had no place here. Every cell in my being felt on the verge of combusting as I rammed myself deep inside my woman, over and over again. She bit and clawed at me, fanning the inferno that raged within me with the most wondrous mix of pleasure and pain.
Far from breaking, my Dawn begged for more, and more I gave. I wrested one climax after another from her. Occasionally, I would join my voice to hers, my seed erupting inside her in almost excruciating bliss. After the second time, I put her back onto her feet, and bent her over, facing away from me. I took her from behind with the same relentless vigor. Her palms resting against the shower wall, Dawn rocked back and forth, meeting me thrust for thrust.
Unable to resist, I gave the plump mounds of her behind a few solid slaps, soothing the sting with a caress after each one. Dawn’s approving moans, and her essence gushing between her thighs reassured me that she enjoyed a bit of spanking.
Ancestors, she was my perfect partner.
As my ultimate climax built again, I caressed her side, my hand slipping to her front and down between her thighs to rub her clit. Dawn emitted a strangled moan. She threw her head back as bliss swept her away again. Her knees buckled. I caught her before she could collapse but didn’t stop my sensual assault on her until my own orgasm struck me.
The room spun, and my eyes nearly rolled to the back of my head as pleasure too much to bear slammed into me. It felt like a thousand micro-explosions were setting off throughout my body while liquid flames raced through my veins. But it was the searing heat of my seed shooting out in blissful spurts into my woman that had me coming undone.
I couldn’t recall lowering us onto the floor. By the time I regained awareness of my surroundings, I was sitting on the shower’s floor, Dawn curled up in my arms, and lukewarm water raining over us.
“You’ll be the death of me, woman,” I whispered before kissing her forehead.
She chuckled and snuggled even deeper into me. “Although this doesn’t sound like too bad of a way to keel over, you’re not allowed to die on me. I’m keeping you.”
It was my turn to chuckle, my heart filling with a deep affection for her that was far too early to name. My arms tightened possessively around Dawn, a sense of peace and happiness washing over me.
“Good, because I’m all yours.”
Chapter 16
Dawn
The next twenty-four hours flew by much too fast. We went over our plan a million times. Keran and his entire crew attempted to account for every possible contingency if things went sideways.
He absolutely hated that I would be participating in the meeting. If he could, Keran would smother me in bubble wrap, lock me up inside a padded room, and throw away the key until all danger had passed. Truth be told, as much as I didn’t want anyone believing themselves entitled to boss me around, I rather loved how protective Keran felt of me.
And his men, too.
Tagar and Nowik were starting to feel like big brothers to me. Initially, Tagar came off as possibly having a crush on me. I couldn’t tell whether Keran had told him to piss off, or if he’d noticed on his own that something was brewing between his boss and me. Either way, I was grateful to have been spared the discomfort of turning down unwanted advances. Tagar was hot in his own right, but Keran had quite literally swept me off my feet.
My nipples hardened as images of all the ways in which Keran wrecked me last night flashed before my mind’s eye. You’d think after the sex marathon we’d had in the shower, my lover would have been down for the count. Fuck no. Not Keran. We had a few more rounds in bed, which forced us to go wash up again a couple of times.
Like he had stated, no amount of showering had washed his scent off me. The way Tagar’s and Nowik’s nostrils flared the minute they approached me confirmed there would be no more hiding the nature of my relationship with the Prince. I had expected to feel a little self-conscious about it, but only possessive pride surged within me.
However, that also meant the hybrids would smell him on me at the meeting tomorrow. As they had already met Keran, they would know the identity of my lover. While I didn’t give a shit what they thought, I did care about Jaek. After he’d made his attraction to me officially known on the day the Veredians healed him, he deserved to be given a heads up.
Unfortunately, the four messages I had sent him since this morning, asking that he message me back when he would have a minute to talk, had gone unanswered. At first, I had not overly worried about it as Jaek often took a while to respond, usually because he was eyeballs deep in some research or experiment. His colleagues regularly had to chastise him into remembering to stop for a meal.
But when night fell, then morning came still without a word from him, every possible horrible thought crept into my mind. Refusing to give into panic just yet, I called his com. He never picked up. Heart pounding, I called the hospital where he worked. When the receptionist confirmed he’d not been in all day yesterday, and wasn’t expected in today, I nearly fainted.
“There’s no need to worry, Ms. Merrick,” the receptionist said in an appeasing tone. “I know what terrible tragedies have been occurring to your people. But Mr. Sedrak is fine. He sent in some urgent reports this morning. It is not rare for him to work remotely when he has a lot of highly sensitive tests to run under a time crunch. Here, people never leave him alone, with one request or another.”
“You’ve heard from him?!” I exclaimed, relief flooding through me.
“Yes,” she said in the same soothing voice. “Don’t worry. He will get back to you soon enough. With that medical ethics lawsuit he’s testifying in, Mr. Sedrak is extremely swamped.”
“Okay, thank you so much,” I replied with sincere gratitude.
“My pleasure. Have a great day!”
I hung up, my growing panic having subsided but not fully vanished. It would take four more hours before my com finally beeped with an incoming message.
