“Careful,” I breathe. “Your claws. Please…”
“I will not hurt you.” He angles his hand so that only the pads of his fingers touch my pussy lips. “I like the feel of these. Ah, here it is. The special place.” He taps my clit with one finger, and a tiny whimper escapes me.
“You sound so small and tender, Princess.” Though it’s dark, his voice betrays that he’s smiling. “I like you this way. Gentled. Ready to be mated.”
“That isn’t—oh…” I release a shrill sigh as he strokes me, clumsily at first, then gently, rhythmically, his fingers wet and slippery from my arousal.
“The wetness is lubricant for breeding, is it not?” he murmurs. “These human fingers of mine can feel everything. It’s one advantage to being in this form.”
“Enough.” I grip his wrist and move his hand away. “Don’t touch me there.”
“But you enjoy it.”
“I enjoy the stimulation, yes. But I don’t want to do this with you. I let you lick me once, and that was a mistake. I won’t make it again.”
I can’t see his expression in the dark, but I feel the visceral tension between us, the thrum of need in the air. I swear I can smell him, the heat of his body, the musk of arousal. I imagine that long cock slipping inside me…
“We should rest,” he says. “My night vision is gone, so we can’t travel in the dark. Besides, it would be dangerous with the fenwolves roaming the forest. They rarely come to the beach, so I think we will be safe here.”
“I hope so.” I shiver at the thought of wolves coming upon us in the night—two naked, weaponless humans. We’d make an easy meal for them.
“You’re cold?” he asks.
“Yes.”
“Then we will lie together, and I will provide you with heat.”
I can’t think of a good reason to say no. The night will only get colder, and without his warmth, I could suffer severely from exposure.
“I suppose we must,” I murmur.
We settle in with him on the outside, his back toward the beach and the ocean. I face inward, toward the slanted rock, with my back against Kyreagan’s chest—and my ass pressed to his crotch. He’s half-hard, and as I move cautiously closer, I feel his length twitch.
Carefully he wraps his arm around my waist, pulling me tight against him. “This is more pleasant than I expected. Do you have enough warmth?”
My arms, feet, and nose are cold, but the rest of me is incandescent. I’ve never lain with a naked man like this. Both my previous trysts were fairly quick, with no time to cuddle afterwards lest we be discovered and serve as fuel for palace gossip.
“My arms are cold, and this rock is uncomfortable,” I whisper.
“Still complaining.” His tone isn’t frustrated, though. It’s tinged with humor, or… affection.
“You’re taking this change relatively well,” I say.
His body tenses. “To be truthful, I’m furious, and I’m afraid. And yet doing this—experiencing the sensations of skin—it is pleasant.”
“Even though you’re injured?”
“Even so.”
We lie in silence for a while. Being held by him is like snuggling with a massive wall of packed muscle and satin skin. His heat envelops me, warming me down to my bones, and if I tuck one arm under my head, the rock isn’t so uncomfortable. It dips in a couple places, and I’m able to find a good spot for my hip and shoulder. In fact, I might be able to sleep… if my stomach would refrain from growling. I haven’t eaten since the breakfast I enjoyed in the women’s enclosure, before we started plotting our escape.
My belly growls again.
“Your body is loud,” Kyreagan comments.
“I’m hungry. And yes, I know I’ll have to wait for food.”
He shifts a little closer, and pauses, inhaling.
