A Mate for York (8 page)

“I
don’t know…” She felt embarrassed to admit that he treated her better than any
man ever had. Certainly better than Sean ever treated her.

York
squeezed her hand. “You had better not be thanking me for what I just said.”
His eyes travelled the length of her. “You are a sexy female, Cassidy. I should
be thanking you and not the other way around.”

She
couldn’t help but to smile, having to avert her eyes while she pulled herself
together. “I can say thank you if I want to…you’re really sweet. I also want to
thank you for the orgasm. It’s been a very long time since I had one and…” She
bit down on her bottom lip. Her confidence, suddenly waning. “I enjoyed it very
much.” She managed to squeak out the last, while hoping to god that she didn’t
sound like a pathetic loser.

“How
long has your poor excuse for a mate been dead?” His frown deepened and he
actually looked angry when talking about Sean. It was probably just her
imagination.

“Almost
a year now. He died a few days after my birthday in a car accident.”

“A
year is a very long time to go without coming.” His eyes were wide and his
eyebrows were raised.

“It’s
been a damn sight longer than a year.” she blurted, instantly regretting her
big mouth. She wasn’t normally like this. There was something about York’s
direct nature that brought the same out in her.

He
frowned. “I thought you said your mate died a year ago?”

She
pulled on a loose piece of thread on the blanket. “I also said that we didn’t
have the best sexual relationship.”

York
sat upright, dragging her with him. “Are you telling me that, not only did your
dickhead mate fuck other females but he didn’t take care of you either? That he
didn’t ensure that your needs were met?”

“You’re
being too loud…we’re going to get busted.”

York
cursed beneath his breath. “I’m sorry. It’s just that hearing about your
relationship with him makes me really pissed. I know that it is wrong to speak
badly of the dead but I think he is an idiot and a jerk. That he would rut
other women but not with his own female just fucks me off.”

“We
used to have sex at least once a week…it’s just that…well…he never made me…you
know…cum.” She mumbled the last word, heat crept up her cheeks. “As in, not one
time…ever.”

“You’ve
never had an orgasm during sex. Is that what you are telling me?” Not only was
his jaw clenched but a muscle ticked as well.

She
shook her head, feeling mortified. Her face felt hot. Why was she telling him
all of this?

York
slid out of bed. Did knowing that she couldn’t have a g-spot orgasm turn him
off? His dick was fully erect. It jutted from his body. So that didn’t seem
like a reasonable explanation. He paced up and down twice before running a hand
over his scalp.

Cassidy
pulled the blanket around herself. “Why are you so angry?”

York
returned to the bed, crouching down so that she would hear him. “It’s unacceptable
that you have never had an orgasm during sex. How long were you mated?”

“Four
years.”

His
eyes rolled back in anger. They came back blazing. “Four years and you never
came once?”

She
shook her head. “He went down on me a few times after we first got married which
was when I did orgasm but he didn’t like doing it.”

His
jaw worked but he didn’t say anything.

Cassidy
shrugged. “He called it carpet munching and often joked, saying that he wasn’t a
damned vacuum cleaner. I guess that’s why I started waxing in the first place.
Why am I telling you all of this? I don’t even know you.”

He
smiled at her. “What you see is what you get. You know me well enough.” He rose
to his feet. “Where is it?”

She felt
herself frown. “What?”

“The
contract that you signed. Please tell me you have a copy.”

Her
stunning green tinged eyes tracked him as he rose to his feet. An adorable
frown took up residence on her face. “Why do you need the contract?”

“I
want to take a look at that no sex clause. There has to be a way around it.”

Her
frown deepened and she chewed on her full bottom lip, making him want a taste.
This female was utter perfection. From her golden honey infused skin to the
soft smattering of freckles that spilled over her nose onto her cheeks. “What
do you mean? Why do you need to find a way around the clause?” Her chest rose
and fell quickly, telling him that she knew the answer to that question.

Cassidy
shook her head, pulling the blanket more closely around herself. It made him
want to rip it from her. Curves like that should never be covered. Not fucking
ever.

York
looked at her pointedly, making sure that she would be able to read his desire
for her. “I am going to make you come several times with my dick buried deep
inside you. In order to make that happen, we need to find a way around that
clause.”

Cassidy
gasped. Her perfect lips rounded, reminding him of how perfect they had looked
wrapped around his cock. It was a sight he would never tire of. One that he
would think of often.

Her
eyes flashed with anger. “I told you that I don’t need any pity orgasms. Thanks
for everything but I think you should go now.” She suddenly looked sad. It made
his gut churn.

York
gave a humorless chuckle. It came out sounding weird because he was still
whispering. “I’m a selfish bastard, Cassidy. Do I want to feel you shudder
underneath me as you cum…really fucking hard? Yes I do. Do I want to be the
first male that brings that kind of pleasure to you using only my dick?
Abso-fucking-lutely. But please don’t be mistaken…I want to feel my own release
just as badly. I want to feel your tight pussy wrapped around me really badly.
Moreover, I want to feel you grow ever fucking tighter as you come all over my
dick and I don’t think I can let you go until I have. It would be just as much
about me as it would be about you. Am I clear?”

Way
to go, York. Talk about scaring a timid human away.

Her
eyes flared and her mouth rounded out even more. Then the delicious scent of
her arousal enveloped him and she swallowed hard. He was fucked if she wasn’t
turned on right now. Not as timid as he thought. Damned if it didn’t make him
harder for her.

Cassidy
licked her lips and for a second time he was mesmerized as the pink little tip
swept across her lips in a slow glide that made him bite back a moan.

“It’s
in the top drawer of the dresser.”

She
was some female and he had to have her.

Had.
To.

One
way or another. If there wasn’t a way around the clause, he would pay her out
himself. York didn’t care about money. The coven was wealthy, which meant that
he was wealthy. He would make sure that she received her payout fair and
square. He meant what he had said, there was no way he could watch her walk
away without having had her. He wasn’t lying when he said that he was selfish.
In this, he was a selfish prick but this female had made him momentarily
insane. At least, that’s what it felt like.

York
pulled out the thick, heavy document.

It
would take at least an hour to read through each and every clause. Fuck that!
He tossed it back in the drawer. “Do you trust me?”

She
nodded without hesitation and he felt something weird inside his chest. It was
more than likely pride, yeah that’s what it was, pride that even after all that
had happened she trusted him. He would not fail her. “Good,” he growled. “I
guarantee that you will be paid out in full regardless of what happens. I will
take the fall for this.” He put his hand against his chest. “You’re here for
the money, right?”

Cassidy
nodded.

“Please
trust me that you will get your cash even if you are booted tomorrow.” He put a
knee on the bed and sat down next to her.

“How
can you be so sure?” Her eyes were on his dick while she spoke but they soon
lifted to lock with his.

“I’m
head of the elite team. Number one.” He wasn’t one for bragging but he had to make
her understand that he did have some pull within the covens. Brant would serve
him his ass but quite frankly he didn’t give a fuck. One night with this female
would be worth it. The bastard hadn’t listened to him earlier. Cassidy would
get her money and everyone would be happy.

Except
he was out. No longer one of the ten. There was a painful clench deep inside
him. Chances were good that he would never be a father. It was something he
would worry about tomorrow.

“I
promise you, that you will get paid out in full regardless of what happens. I’m
not going to lie to you, there will be hell to pay in the morning but I’ll take
the brunt of it.”

“Why
though? Surely you could have anyone?” Her cheeks immediately flushed scarlet.
He could see that she hadn’t meant to say that.

“I
don’t want just anyone. I want you, Cassidy.”

She
gave a shake of her head and her mouth curled up at the corners. “You don’t
even know me.”

York
found himself smiling back. “I know you well enough. Like I said before, we’re
drawn together on a physical level…you can’t deny it.”

She
licked her lips but didn’t respond. York could see that she was having an
internal war.

“Answer
me one thing…”

Nodding,
the blanket slipped off of one shoulder giving him an unobstructed view of the
top of one of her rounded breasts. Cassidy had the best mammary glands he had
ever seen on a female. Lush, weighty…so soft that his hands itched to touch
them again.

He
cleared his throat when he realized that she was waiting for him to continue.
With a small shake of the head, she gave him a knowing smile. Thankfully she
looked amused rather than angry after the eyeball fuck he had just given her.
“Right,” he whispered. “Where was I?” he grinned.

“I
needed to answer you one thing.” She raised her brows looking so utterly
fuckable it was scary.

York
gave a deep nod. “Do you want me to fuck you right now?” He lifted his hand as
he watched her face cloud in thought. She was over thinking the hell out of it.

“Don’t
think of consequences or any of that. You said that you were here for the money
and you’re scared of being chucked out of the trial phase if we did this.”

She
nodded.

“I’ve
already guaranteed that you will be paid so what’s stopping you?”

“Nothing
I guess. Thing is, I don’t normally do things like this. It would just be this
once, right?”

York
hesitated before answering. He would’ve liked to have had more with her. Shit,
she was everything he’d ever wanted in a female. It would be great to explore
this attraction. Maybe there was something deeper there. It could never happen
though. Even if by some miracle he was allowed back into the program, the human
females had already been selected based on strict criteria. Cassidy was not one
of them. “Yes…” His voice sounded funny so he cleared his throat. “Just
tonight.” He was done trying to convince her. “Your choice, Cassidy. I will
respect your decision either way.” It was her choice and he would keep his trap
sealed until she made it.

For a
second, he was sure that she looked disappointed but she quickly schooled her
expression. “Okay then. I think I would regret it if I didn’t.”

“You
don’t have to sound so enthusiastic about it.” He had to chuckle. “You really
don’t have to do this.” He had to make sure that she really wanted this, that
she wouldn’t have regrets in the morning.

She
smiled. “I’m sure.”

York
let out a breath that he didn’t even know he was holding. He’d never had to
work so hard to get a female into his bed. The vampire females knew his
position in the coven. He normally had his pick. This whole having to work for
it concept was foreign to him…he liked it.

With a
small shrug of the shoulder, Cassidy let the blanket fall in a puddle around
her. He had to clench his teeth to keep from snarling. Her beauty called to him
in a primal way. She looked up at him from under long black lashes. Her equally
dark hair had become a wild tangle about her shoulders from their earlier
tussle. Her eyes were big, with an innocent quality that brought out the
protector in him.

Her
breasts had his dick throbbing between his thighs. She hadn’t had sex in a long
time and she had never had a vampire before, so things would be tight down
there. He knew that to be true from the way her pussy had hugged his tongue
earlier and his dick was a damn sight bigger.

As
much as he wanted to turn her over and pound into her warm flesh, he was going
to take his time and make this about her. Round two could be hard and fast…but
still about her.

York
moved over to Cassidy and kissed her softly, keeping his hands at his sides.
They had been instructed in the training that human females enjoyed the act of touching
of the lips and the tangling of the tongues. He had kissed before, although not
often. Rutting was about release, kissing, in his opinion, did nothing to bring
about that end. Yet, with Cassidy, he found that he enjoyed it. It was like a
mating of the tongues. He liked how her hot breath mingled with his. How her breathy
pants very quickly turned choppy. Fuck but he could drown in her taste. If
sunshine and rainbows had a flavor, then this was it. York cupped her chin
deepening their kiss, swallowing her whimper and demanding that she give him
more.

He
pulled her onto his lap and she straddled him while linking her arms around his
neck. York put a hand to her pussy and had to break the kiss so that he could
groan. “You’re still so wet, Cassidy.” Keeping his eyes on hers, he breached
her opening with a single finger.

Her mouth
fell open and her eyes heated up. York pushed deeper into her channel, loving
the feel of her slick heat.

Cassidy
licked her lips, panting softly as he began to finger fuck her. “Oh god, that
feels good.” She whimpered. “I can’t believe it and it’s just your finger.”

He
kissed the tip of her cute nose before taking back her mouth. Sliding two
fingers inside her, he kept thrusting into her using easy strokes. Cassidy
moaned and he ate up the sound. She was rocking against his hand. One more
finger, he had to prepare her for his thick girth. Her moan erupted and she
slapped a hand over her mouth. “I didn’t know it could feel this good.” A
hoarse whisper, that had his dick twitching between them.

“You
haven’t felt anything yet, gorgeous.” He withdrew his fingers and she moaned in
frustration. “Are you ready for me?”

Her
eyes widened. “Are you sure you’ll fit?”

York
trailed soft kisses along her collarbone using one of his hands to knead her
spectacular mammary glands. “There’s only one way to find out.” He would
fucking die if he didn’t fit.

“Um…okay.”
Then she sucked in a ragged breath. “What about protection?”

“You’re
not in heat so no risk of pregnancy and I can’t give you any human illnesses
since I don’t get them.” He softly pinched one of her nipples and she moaned.
Using the same hand, he found her clit and stroked it.

Cassidy’s
eyes opened really wide and she clamped her mouth shut. “It’s hard to think
when you’re doing that.”

“The
time for thinking is over. I’m going to fuck you now, Cassidy.” He tried to
keep the desperation out of his voice. “Feel free to kiss me…or bite me if you
feel like screaming.”

Her
head looked too heavy for her neck and she was panting hard. Her eyes were at
half mast. In short, she was really close to orgasm which was exactly where he
wanted her.

York
took ahold of her hips and lifted her so that his cock lined up with her
opening. “You need to do this, Cassidy, ease yourself onto me.”

She
nodded, putting her hand between them. He hissed out a breath as her little
fingers closed on him. “You are so big.” Awe mingled with fear.

“My
cock will touch every nerve ending inside of you. Sit on me, Cass, take it
slow.”

She
nodded, pushing onto his head. They both groaned as he breached her tight
opening. “Oh god.” She was panting…big time. “That stings.”

Using
one hand to hold her up, he pushed the other between their bodies quickly
finding her clit. He used soft strokes designed to make her feel good rather
than to make her cum. He didn’t want her to cum just yet, he wanted to keep her
wet and heavily aroused.

She
pushed down onto him and he sank in an inch. Her eyes were closed. Her mouth became
a thin white line.

“Cass,
we don’t have to…” It would kill him but he could stop. He hated to see her
face lined with pain.

“I
want to.” She slid down another inch.

She
was squeezing him so damned tight that he could hardly breathe. York slid out
of her and pushed back in. In and out. Staying shallow. He kept up the slip and
slide over her clit. “Are you okay?” he managed to grind out.

Cassidy
nodded. “I want more.”

Fucking
music to his ears. He pushed back in giving her another inch. Her mouth fell
open and her eyes widened. In and out…this time pushing in to the new depth.

Cassidy
moaned softly. She licked her lush lips. “I’m ready for more.”

This
went on for a few minutes, until he finally felt her ass against him. She gave
him a tight smile, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes glassy with desire.
“You fit.”

“Don’t
sound so shocked.” He nipped her bottom lip and she nipped him back, sucking
his lip into her mouth.

Fuck
if it wasn’t one of the sexiest things a female had ever done to him.

“You
can fuck me now.” A breathy whisper that almost had him coming.
