As Love Shifts (25 page)

She was not going to answer that question and make things worse. “It was quick, but still spectacular. Wanna try again? We are all alone. Just you and me for a change.”

His grin was adorable, his cheeks bunching up. “And you don’t even have to be quiet. Spare me the scream, though. I don’t want the entire family running in to save you from me.”

“You mean like last night?” she replied with an embarrassed giggle.

“Exactly. I don’t even want to know what prompted that sound.”

No he didn’t. “I don’t know, maybe six climaxes in one night.”

“Good answer.” Kris slowly tugged her shirt off. She had run out of clean bras and was wearing a tight tank top instead, which he gracefully removed. Giving each naked nipple a lick, her kissed his way down to the waistband of her jeans and unzipped them, tugging them and her panties off at the same time. Once she was naked, he grabbed her by the waist, lifted her effortlessly into the air, and pitched her onto the bed.

The brute strength of the act always served as a good warmer up for her entire body. “I love when you do that.”

“I know you do.” Sauntering over to the bed as he removed his clothing, he crawled over her body like a reptile. “I know all the things you like.”

“That is one of the things I love about you. You are a very caring and attentive man, not only in bed, but always.”

Leaning on his elbows, he brushed back her hair, his touch soft upon her cheeks. Ever stared at his face, reaching up to touch the small scar, and he instinctively closed his eyes.

“Do you have to?”

“No, I don’t. But I want to. The scar draws my attention and I already told you that I think it is sexy. Chirrot thinks that his mother may have some medical books that I could read. If I know how the eye works, maybe I can recreate it.”

“That would be nice. I’m getting used to only having one eye, but…”

“I’ll talk to her tomorrow.”

He leaned into her touch and Ever let her fingers flow into his hair. She loved the contrast between the short, fuzzy sides and the longer center that she could run her fingers through. Kris tugged her bottom lip between his teeth, biting and nipping at the flesh. He licked across her lips and then crushed her with a kiss, his tongue brushing against her teeth. Ever had always adored the way that he kissed her and tonight was no different, his tongue enveloping her own. He held her face between his palms, exerting his control and then changing the position of his head. He returned to the kiss, sliding his hands down to grasp her wrists and push them above her head. He moved her hands to the center of her head and held them down with one hand as he leaned back to stare at her again.

“I should really tie you up. I haven’t done that in a long time.”

“No, you haven’t. Why don’t you?”

He snorted a cropped laugh. “Because there is nothing to tie you with, or tie you to. I will have to do something about that for future use.”

He was right. The mattress and box spring had been put on the floor until they could move the frame up to the house. He could probably use her tank top, but she was short on clothing and didn’t want any of it to get ruined. “I can pretend my hands are tied.”

“Don’t bother. I want to feel them on my body tonight.”

He released her wrists, sliding downward to take her breasts in his palms. Kris rolled the flesh in the most desirously arousing manner, his mouth capturing her nipple to torment the raised flesh with his tongue. The skin tightened and tingled, sending jarring shards of sensation downward to join the quickly escalating inner throbs. The nerves in her pussy were softly beating to the tune of her heart. It created an itch that longed to be scratched by the wonderful friction of his cock.

He continued to suck and fondle her skin, nipping and tugging on her nipple as her hands slid over his shoulders. His back was heavily muscled and taut from the hard labor of the day, his arms rippled as he balanced on his elbows. He was slowly flexing his lower body, his dick rubbing against her mound and outer pussy lips. She wanted him inside her, but as she tried to shift her legs to capture him, Kris pulled back. He shook his head from side to side, a tormenting grin plastered on his beautiful face. “Not yet. I want to see if you will scream for me.”

“I thought you didn’t want me to scream.”

“I changed my mind, just don’t scream too loudly.”

Ever had no idea how to scream quietly, but she would try to keep it in mind. He nipped and licked his way down the center of her body, gratefully sparing her the tongue in the navel, as he began to massage her mound with his palm. With his other hand, he spread the outer lips and ran his tongue up the center of the crease. Ever jumped, the inner itch taken up a notch by his attention. Unlike Chirrot, Kris would know when she was about to climax and probably wouldn’t let it happen.

He licked and twirled his wet tongue over and around her clit, enflaming the small muscle and making it throb piteously. His fingers toyed with the outer ring of her cunt, pushing it open ever so slowly, but not actually breaching the inner walls. He did this repeatedly, pushing her open, licking her clit, releasing her. Ever squirmed, wanting to scream as her body built to a fever pitch, wanting, demanding more direct attention. Kris didn’t give it. He sat back on his heels, rubbing from her knees up to her hips and then back down again. The touch felt wonderful but it was not what she wanted and he knew it.

“You do realize that you are killing me with abstinence?”

“I’m well aware of what I’m doing. Relax and enjoy.”

She was enjoying, but the heartbeat of sweet sensation within her pussy was also infuriating. She wanted him to do something about it, but he obviously had no intention of doing anything but to make it worse. Leaning forward, he kissed her thigh, her mound, spreading her flesh again to tease her clit. He began the subtle breach of her ring, but this time, sank his fingers slightly inside, just far enough to hit her inner spot and make her jump as she gasped for air. It created such an intense flare of sensation, the need growing within her.

He did it again and again, withdrawing over and over so the tips of his fingers lingered just inside her. His tongue was wiggling, his lips sucking on her clit as he had done earlier to her nipple. Ever felt it building, the subtle throb turning into more rapid spasms. He was going to make her climax.

Kris pulled back, returning to his caress of her legs. Ever glared at him. The sensation within was all consuming, demanding her complete attention. “Please, don’t.” Her voice held a whiney, begging tone. He had her bound to the bed just as surely as if he had tied her with rope. Any slight shift of her body made the sensation worse, yet she wanted to thrash her hips to try and find some relief.

He bent and kissed her stomach, his lips holding so much promise if he would simply move them downward. Sliding up her body in a way that rubbed flesh against flesh, he again began to massage and suckle her nipples. Ever scraped her hands over his arms, grabbing at his back as she moved her legs up and down his thighs. She was trying to coerce him with her touch, make him understand her desperation at full value. He tilted his head back, setting his chin between the cleft of her flesh. “Yes? Do you want something?”

“I would really enjoy the feel of your sweet dick inside my now screaming pussy.”

“Would you now?”

He was being an ass and she was tempted to make a wisecrack, but it would get her nowhere. Kris was trying to compete with Chirrot, really turn her on so her climax would be fireworks. “Please.”

He shook his head. “I don’t think you are hot enough yet.”

“But I really am.”

He rolled off the bed, standing and walking to where he had dropped his pants. “I want you to roll over and clasp your hands together over your head. Be a good girl and maybe I will give you what you want.”

Ever rolled, doing as he asked. He was testing her with his words and actions and she really needed to remind him that he really was her alpha. In all honesty, he was pushing her to the point of aggravated rather than aroused.

Crack.
Her mind reeled with the feeling of leather hitting the skin of her ass. It wasn’t horribly hard, but it still stung. It also caused her pussy to flare hotter with the unexpected sensation. Kris hit her again, the strikes wavering between soft and slightly hard. There was nothing that was causing her excruciating pain, but it was building, the skin getting progressively hotter.

Ever was braced for the next hit when he grabbed her wrists, wrapping them with his belt and pulling it tight. He flipped her over, stepped up onto the bottom of the bed, dropping to his knees and filling her with the full intensity of his cock. Her ass was on fire, her arms uncomfortable, and he had complete control over her. Kris dragged her legs up to his sides and Ever locked her feet at his back. It felt so damn good, each hard thrust of his hips filling her, colliding with the throbbing pulse within her. It was overwhelming, a euphoric fog drifting over her mind as she was overwhelmed with sensations. She was gasping for air, crying out softly as he built friction, grinding against all the sensitive nerves to draw from her exactly what she craved.

She locked her eyes on his face, her mouth open as she drove her head back into the pillows. Kris gritted his teeth, snarling as he thrashed his hair and sank deeply into her flesh. It was the final thrust to bring the fireworks to light. They flashed and popped within her, explosions of pulsing nerves causing her to buck her hips and shiver as the scream billowed from her throat. Ever’s last thought was to keep it quiet and Kris met her delight with growls of his own as he threw his hand over her mouth. He dropped onto her chest, chuckling as he kissed her. He had given her what she wanted and she had given him the same thing. She had given him back the faith that nothing between them had changed and it was exactly what Kris needed to know.

Chirrot smiled at Ever as she walked at his side. She had requested to go speak with his mother to inquire about the anatomy books. “Did you make Kris feel better? He doesn’t seem so disgruntled with me this morning.”

“Disgruntled is a good way to put it. He is just feeling a bit off about his eye and about the way you made me scream. You are a very charismatic individual.”

“Oh, like he isn’t? Fuck, people look at him like he is a god. Women drool over him, men want to be him. Everyone wants what he has.”

“Like what?”

“He has a beautiful, magical, alpha mate and four very impressive children. He has the largest and best built home with his own army to protect it. Need I say more?” He raised his eyebrows to her and she giggled softly.

“I guess I just didn’t think about it in that way.” Ever tilted her head curiously. “So you’re jealous of him, too?”

“A little. Not enough to become angry about. I want to be his brother and be a part of your family. I just wonder if that is possible.”

“Of course it is. Just give it a bit of time.”

Chirrot hoped that she was right. He had been a good boy and rotated with Liam and Demetri. He had slept in the chair so Liam took a place at the bottom of the bed and Demetri slept beside Ever. He would get to hold her one out of every three nights. Kris had obviously made love to her. The room was filled with the scent of it. It wasn’t a bad thing, but it had been slightly arousing. Unlike normal men, he couldn’t hide an arousal and he had to be very careful not to allow it unless he wanted it. He had yet to show the others the truth of his changeling nature. Ever had told them, but words were never quite adequate in comparison to the sight of his enlarged body. It had its good points and its bad, but it always meant that he had to be careful. There was no hiding what he was when it came to making love to a woman. He was lucky that he had once had a shifter as a mate. She had shown him many tricks to making a woman happy and that knowledge would serve him well with Ever. He just needed to be careful not to step on Kris’s toes in the meantime. The alpha were was a good ally to have, but what Chirrot had said was the truth. He wanted to be a part of their family and become brothers with the other three men.

As they drew nearer to the mountain, he saw that construction of the wooden pathway was progressing well. The birds and smaller animals had probably been set free already, but the walkway needed to be strengthened enough to not collapse during the journey. Braces were being installed at various locations and appeared to almost be complete. He led Ever to the rope stairs that hung from above and held out his hand. She glanced skeptically at him. “Really?”

“The only other way is to fly up and you don’t know how to do that yet.”

She rolled her eyes and turned around, climbing up the ladder. Chirrot had a perfect view of her luscious ass as he stood on the ground watching her. How did the human saying go? He wanted to tap that someday. He also had little doubt it would happen. It didn’t seem practical that they always made love to her individually. She had certainly had no qualms about Liam spanking her and from the looks of her ass when she climbed out of bed this morning, Kris had used more than just his hand. She had the faintest remains of red lash marks that were the size of the leather belt that Kris wore.

Chirrot really wasn’t accustomed to such violent practices in the bedroom, but he had an open mind and if Ever enjoyed it then it was fine with him. She climbed over the edge and stood looking down at him. For a moment he debated if it was easier to fly or climb, but flying would require that he walk around naked until he could get his clothing. Chirrot decided to climb.

Ever had already made herself at home when he reached the top. Mother was making her a cup of tea with the solar heating element they had rescued from their house. His mother was a big fan of anything that kept them off the grid and the small two-burner stove had created many a good meal when they lived in the camper.

“So to what do I owe the honor of this visit?”

“Ever was wondering if you still had those anatomy books, Mother. She needs to know the proper workings of an eye.”
