His order rolled through her, making her nipples tingle in awareness and need. They tightened to hard buds, just like every time before when he’d given her an order. When he got all dominating and took charge, it shredded her own need for control. She’d never thought that would turn her on, but everything about Elias seemed to.

As his fingers moved inside her, she began stroking her clit. The swollen bundle of nerves was a mass of sensitivity. The moment she touched herself, her inner walls clenched even tighter around his fingers. He let out a soft growl, nipping her backside in erotic little strokes of his tongue and teeth.

“Too slow,” she moaned.

He just chuckled against her skin, clearly knowing he would need to move faster if she was going to find release. Yep, he was an absolute menace.

She tried to move backward, to force him to go faster, but he just withdrew his fingers. Her body instantly mourned the feel of his touch. His hands settled on her hips, flexing once before he turned her over onto her back.

The sheets did little to cool her body as he stared down at her. The muscles in his chest, arms and stomach were pulled taut. And his cock... her inner walls clenched again with the need to be filled by him.

“We don’t have to do this right now.” It was clear the words pained him.

A smile touched her lips. “I want this more than I’ve ever wanted anything.”

Elias accepted every part of her. The part she’d thought was flawed and everything in between. He wanted
her
, not what she could give him. And he respected and simply liked her. They still had a lot to learn about each other, but the building blocks for a solid, loving relationship were there in a way she’d only dreamed about.

At her words, he pushed inside her. He stilled above her, letting her get used to his size again. As her inner walls stretched and molded around him, he cupped one of her breasts and rubbed his thumb over her nipple in erotic circles.

She tightened around him each time he stroked her. Pleasure rippled through her with each flicking tease. Her breathing was raspy, uneven, and she could barely think straight. Beyond words, she reached up and grasped his shoulders, pulling him down to her. With a hungry look on his face, he threaded his hand through her hair, holding her in a tight grip. Their lips met and once again she felt consumed by him in the best way possible.

Her breasts rubbed against his chest, each stroke making her light-headed with need.

Then he began moving, and it was like a punch to her entire system. All her nerve endings seemed affected by the feel of his thick cock stroking inside her. She knew part of her intense reaction was because they would soon be mating, claiming each other for good. Everyone would know they belonged to each other, and the most primal part of her couldn’t wait.

She wanted every single female to know Elias was taken by her. That thought alone made her canines ache, begging to be set free. The sudden need made her tear her mouth from his and give in to pure instinct.

Burying her face against his neck, she lightly scraped her teeth against his neck. When she did, he growled and his thrusting grew more unsteady and faster, and she could sense the wildness in him.

He reached between them and tweaked her clit, rubbing it with his thumb as he sought out her neck. The sensation of his teeth pressing against the most sensitive part of her neck was so overwhelming combined with what his talented hand was doing.

For the first time in forever, she felt as if she actually belonged. And not to just anyone, but the man she loved. The man she would call her own forever.

When he lightly pinched her clit between his thumb and forefinger, release slammed into her without warning. Her inner walls clenched around his thick length, milking him tighter and tighter. Her canines pierced his skin as that sweet climax surged to all her nerve endings.

As she tasted his blood, she felt two pinpricks of pain against her neck that quickly gave way to pleasure. Her climax was almost too much. Elias’s own orgasm tore through him as he shouted out her name, tearing his mouth from her neck as he lost control. Her back arched as the continuing pleasurable sensations surged through her, leaving her weak and boneless.

Her climax slowly ebbed as she fell back against the sheets. Through heavy-lidded eyes, she watched Elias above her. The smile on his face was pure male and pure satisfaction. His hands were on each side of her head, caging her in as he leaned down and nuzzled her neck where he’d pierced her skin.

She did the same to him, loving the sounds he made. “You sound like a feline with all that purring,” she murmured against his skin.

He chuckled, the deep sound reverberating through her because of the fact that he was still half-hard inside her. “Don’t tell anyone.”

She tightened her grip around him, needing that extra closeness more than ever. “We’re actually mated.”

He dropped an almost chaste kiss on her forehead, nose, then mouth. “You better believe it.” Then he frowned, surprising her. “I need to get you a mating gift.”

“I think you just gave me the best gift ever.” She clenched around his now-hardening length and smiled when he shuddered.

“No. A real one. What’s the one thing you want?” His expression was so sincere, it warmed her from the inside out.

“Other than you I don’t want anything, but...I’d love to take a vacation with you. Not now, but for our year anniversary I want to visit Aransol, see where I come from.” She’d wanted to go for years but kept putting it off with one excuse or another. Maybe she’d just been waiting for the right person to go with her.

His dark eyebrows lifted. “That’s it?”

She nodded.

“Then we’re going. You’re very easy to please.” He playfully nipped her bottom lip as he slowly began thrusting inside her again.

She laughed lightly but couldn’t find the energy to respond. As long as he kept giving her mind-blowing orgasms and loving her the way she loved him, she’d be
very
easy to please. And she had a feeling that the climax she’d just had was only the first for the day.

When his head dipped to her breast and he lazily began stroking her, she wrapped her arms around him and held tight. They were a perfect fit in every way. And he would always have her back. It was almost too surreal to believe that she’d finally found a permanent place in the world as she’d always dreamed of, but she knew without a doubt that she had in Elias’s arms.
