Dragon's Prisoner: A Curvy Girl Military Romance (Dragon Blaze Ops Book 4)

by Jasmine Wylder

  Karey stepped toward the bedroom. “But in there?”

  “In there… it's not seen.”

  “But they could still hear what you were doing.”

  Adam grimaced. He hadn’t thought about that.

  Karey chewed her lip again and took another step toward the bedroom. “Can I watch with you?”

  His eyes went as wide as dinner plates and his jaw dropped. What the hell? That was the last thing he had expected to hear from her. So unexpected, it short-circuited his brain and he was nodding before he knew what he was doing. Karey disappeared into the bedroom and he stood there, still silent with shock, until the moans and groans from the video came on again.

  Well… he didn’t have to actually do anything, right? She said she hadn’t seen a naked man before. Maybe she was just curious. Given the type of life she led with the Pack, it wouldn’t surprise him if she had received very little in the way of sex education.

  A frown crossed his face as he stepped into the bedroom and leaned against the wall. He had to keep his distance from her. “How can you be a nurse but not have seen a naked man before?”

  Karey, her gaze on the screen and her cheeks red, murmured, “I never said that.”

  “But you said you’d never seen ‘one’ before. I assume you mean my cock.”

  Karey flinched. “What’s wrong with just saying penis? And it’s not like I haven’t seen men naked. I am a nurse. But when I’m helping an elderly man take a shower it’s a lot different than seeing someone like you… doing that. I guess you could say I haven’t seen a… a boner before.”

  She giggled, her face tomato-red again.

  Adam cleared his throat and came to stand beside the bed. The smell of her lavender fragrance wafted toward him, along with the distinctive scent of female arousal. He groaned in his throat before he could catch himself and Karey’s head jerked up, her eyes wide.

  “Sorry. Sorry. It’s just that I…” He let out a sigh. “So, you’ve never seen porn before?”

  “No. Technology is very limited with the Pack and when I’m away, I don’t even know how to start looking for it. I’ve wanted to,” she added, her voice growing a little quieter. “And I always thought it meant there was something wrong with me. Father always said that women are the moral compass of society and without them, men are just wild animals slating their lust to propagate the species.”

  “That is bullshit,” Adam snapped, then winced when Karey winced. “Sorry. It’s just not true. If men are like that, it’s because that’s what society shapes them into. You know in the medieval ages it was the opposite? Men were pure lust-free beings except when devilish, sexual women tempted them. Women were seen as moral tempters and more sexually driven than men.”

  Karey frowned at him.

  Adam sat next to her, his gaze on the video but not really seeing it. “Lots of women watch porn, Karey. There’s nothing wrong with that, as long as you do your due diligence with sourcing it.”

  “What do you mean?”

  “I mean the porn industry is rife with abuse. You gotta be careful where you get your porn from and make sure that the people involved are really adults and that they’re doing it because they want to. It’s tricky but…” Adam shrugged. “Anyway, is that what you thought it’d be like?”

  Karey shook her head. “No. I didn’t know that—” she pointed at the screen, where the man was holding the woman in the air as they had sex, “—was possible. I thought it all had to be like the way animals do it, you know? From behind.”

  “Oh.” Adam couldn’t stifle a laugh. “Oh, no. That’s not it at all. Sorry, I don’t mean to laugh. It’s just that, well…”

  “It’s a silly thing to think?”

  “And it’s something that I heard on a show called Outlander. Where the one character thought that was the only way you could have sex. He’d never been taught anything and had to surmise from the animals he looked after.” Adam’s amusement faded as he realized that had to be exactly what Karey was thinking, too. “But there are a lot of positions that are possible. I like doggy style myself, but it’s not the best one.”

  Karey paused the video. Her shoulders drooped. “Lots of times Omegas are used by the higher statuses for sex. I had a babysitter who, before she was exiled, was the mistress to a Beta. She said she wasn’t going to have any other options, so she wanted to have that. But then she got pregnant. They made her abort the baby and when she refused to continue having sex with the Beta, they banished her. No.” She pressed her fingers to her temples. “Father banished her. For acting above her station.”

  Adam’s hands clenched, but he tried to keep himself from showing too much anger. “What happened to her?”

  Karey shook her head. “I don’t know. I tried to find her once I started my medical training but… I couldn’t.”

  “I’m sorry.”

  Karey nodded, then glanced up at him. Tears burned in her eyes as she wrapped her arms around her waist. “I don’t want to go back.”

  “You don’t have to.”

  “Yes, I do.”

  Adam reached for her hand. “No. You don’t. You can turn sides and—”

  “And end up in jail? Or killed? Or maybe something worse that I can’t even begin to imagine?” Her eyes narrowed accusingly at him. “I don’t want to be on these blockers for the rest of my life. I need my wolf. And now that I have the serum in my blood, there’s no way the Academy will ever allow me to be off them. I don’t want to go back, but when my only options are spending the rest of my life in jail or being killed as a traitor—”

  “There are other options.”

  “No. There aren’t.” Karey shook her head firmly. “And so, I have to keep trying to escape. Not until the snow lets up but…”

  Adam wasn’t sure what to say to that. Instinctively, he wanted to comfort her. Reassure her. But what could he say? The only other option he could think of was witness protection, and it wasn’t like he could actually make that promise. Knowing that she didn’t want to go back, though, but that she just felt like she had no choice…

  Karey pressed play on the porn again. They watched in silence, Adam uncertain what he was feeling. The desire for Karey was strong, especially when her breathing grew more rapid and her pupils dilatated. The smell of her arousal strengthened. Adam was on the verge of telling her to take it downstairs so she could care for herself and he’d put something on up here, when she paused the video.

  She pointed at the image of the man eating out the woman. “Can you do that to me?”

  “Uhhhhh…”

  Karey’s cheeks went red again, but she held his gaze. “I don’t want to be a virgin. But when I was in school, I was too embarrassed and ashamed. With the Pack, there’s nobody that I can stand the thought of touching me. But you’re kind and gentle. I know that you’ll treat me right, and I don’t have to be afraid of you.”

  “Uhhhhh…”

  What the fuck was he supposed to do now?

  Chapter Nine

  The look on Adam’s face was more than Karey could take. The heat pooling in her core moved to her face, and she slowly closed the lid of the portable DVD player. She shouldn’t have been so stupid as to think he’d have any interest in her. She’d given him the reasons why she was interested in him—and she was regretting that just as much as she was regretting asking—but there was no reason he’d want to touch her.

  Even if he had said she was beautiful.

  “I’m sorry,” she whispered miserably. Was this why women weren’t supposed to watch porn? Because once they lost their moral centers, it was truly lost, and they became sex-crazed sluts? “I shouldn’t have…”

  “No. No, you don’t have to apologize.” Adam let out a pent-up breath. “It just took me by surprise. Because you know, you are a prisoner and I’m your captor and there are the power dynamics and then there’s the fact that we’re on opposing sides and it’d just be wrong. I’d feel like I was taking advantage of you.”

 
; Karey dared to look up at him. His eyes were dark, a flush tinging his cheeks pink. There was something in his expression. Something that made her mouth go dry. “You… you mean you want to?”

  “I… yes.”

  Now Karey didn’t know what to say. “Uhhhhh…”

  “Sorry!” Adam quickly stood. “Sorry. I don’t know what is going on with my head. We should just separate and calm down and start thinking straight.”

  She wasn’t sure what made her so bold. Maybe the admission that yes, he did want her. Maybe the thought that if she ever did make it back home, she’d retake the trials and then be condemned to a life mateless and childless or be given to the likes of Shane Carter. This might very well be her only chance to be with a man who actually cared about things like power dynamics and whether it was right or wrong.

  In any case, she found herself blurting out, “I don’t want to think straight.”

  Adam stared at her wide-eyed.

  “I want you.” Was she saying this right? Should she start undressing? How did one go about seducing someone? “I want… I want to know what sex is like and I want you to be the one to show me. I don’t care if I’m your prisoner. I don’t care if we’re on opposing sides. I don’t even care if you’re using me to get information on the Pack. I know from the way you’re trying to convince me to change my mind that you’re not, at least not with the sex stuff. If you say no then I’ll go back downstairs, but I need you to know that I don’t care about anything else. Just you and me here.”

  She held her breath, wondering if she ought to have said more or if she had said too much already. Adam studied her, a furrow in his brow, a frown on his lips, desire blazing in his eyes.

  “Tell the cameras.”

  Karey blinked. “What?”

  “I’m gonna get into one hell of a mess because of this, so I need you to tell the camera that you want this. Because then I’ll just be getting into trouble for being the idiot that sleeps with an enemy rather than facing accusations of assault on top of it.”

  The blood drained from Karey’s face. Would they really think he had assaulted her? But she wanted this! Her whole body was on fire. She craved him so much that she could hardly breathe. Her mind made up, she marched out to the main room and repeated to the camera what she had said to him.

  “And we both want this so we’re going to have it,” she added at the end. “You have no business in the bedroom!”

  She marched back into the room and shut the door. Adam grinned at her and suddenly nerves hit the pit of her stomach. Was this really happening or was it a dream?

  Adam put his hands on her hips, and his touch was so fiery that the nerves receded. Not going away entirely but enough that she didn’t doubt this choice. He was going to treat her right, and she was going to have the experiences she had craved for so long.

  “Alright. So first off, let’s lay down the ground rules.”

  “Ground rules?”

  “What you want, what we’re allowed to do, what we’re not allowed to do.”

  Karey licked her lips. She’d thought that once a woman agreed to sex, the man just did to her what he wanted. But she was supposed to tell him things that he wasn’t allowed to do? “I… I don’t think I know enough to tell you what I want. Other than like in the video, when he was using his mouth on her.”

  “Do you want me to tell you what I’m going to do before I do it, so you can tell me if you want that or not.”

  “Oh… you’ll do that?”

  Adam smirked as he tugged her a little closer. “I want to treat you right. Although I have to warn you, I’ve never actually slept with a virgin before. So if I do anything that you’re uncomfortable with or that you don’t like, tell me okay? That’s really the key to good sex. Communication.”

  “Okay.” Karey put her hands on his shoulders, marveling at his strength and warmth. “So, what are you going to do first?”

  “First?” His hands moved up and down her back. “First I’m going to kiss you. Then I’m going to undress you, kissing every inch of your luscious skin as I do so. I’m going to memorize all your curves with my hands, and I’m going to put you on the bed. I’ll kiss my way down your body. Lingering on the more desirable part of your female anatomy.” Here, one of his hands moved between the two of them, rubbing her breasts. “I’ll make my way between your thighs and I’ll tease you until you’re trembling. Then I’m going to finish you off, stroking you on the outside with my tongue and on the inside with my fingers.”

  A shudder ran down Karey’s back. She wanted that so bad that she could almost taste it. She felt so damp between her legs that she wouldn’t be surprised if she had to wash her pants after that.

  “Yes,” she rasped, leaning against his chest. “I want that. All of that.”

  “Good.”

  Adam pressed his mouth to hers. It was a slow kiss, gentle. It felt like fire burst through her veins, as hot as the fires from the serum but a different kind of heat entirely. She longed for her wolf, for it to experience this with her, but she wouldn’t ruin this moment. It was everything she wanted, and Adam was exactly the person she wanted to share it with.

  His fingers threaded through her hair, pulling her closer to him. Karey’s fingers dug into his shirt. It felt so good! At the back of her mind was a niggling fear that she wasn’t good enough, that he couldn’t possibly be enjoying this as much as she was. But she told that voice to shut up and kissed back. Awkwardly, her tongue fumbling as she tried to mirror his actions, but Adam still grinned when he pulled back.

  “That good so far?” he asked.

  Karey nodded. “What should I do?”

  “Just whatever feels natural. I’ll let you know if there is anything specific that I’d like you to do or want you to stop doing.”

  “Okay.” Karey nodded again, the nerves coming back. She would have preferred to have a little more instruction than that, but maybe he was just trying to put less pressure on her by letting her do whatever she felt was the right thing.

  “Don’t think so hard.” He kissed her again and his hands drifted down to the bottom of her sweater. “You’re doing fine.”

  Goosebumps rose along her arms as he tugged her sweater off, kissing her naked skin just as he’d promised. She wasn’t cold, the heat in her body was too strong for that. Pleasure coursed through her, different from how she imagined yet no less pleasant. Karey closed her eyes, enjoying the feeling of Adam’s hands and mouth on her body. When he removed her bra and sucked on one of her nipples, something tightened with a snap inside of her.

  “Oh!” she cried.

  Adam drew back, his brow furrowed. “Was that too much?”

  “I… Well I liked it,” she said hesitantly.

  “You can like something and it still be too much.”

  Karey chewed her lip.

  Adam brushed his thumbs over her cheekbones. “You’re allowed to tell me to stop. We can stop right now if you want. Or we can just go back to kissing. We don’t have to go any further.”

  “But I want to!” Karey let out an exasperated sigh. “I want to. I’m feeling a little overwhelmed, yeah, but I don’t want you to stop. I want this so bad.”

  Adam considered her for a moment before he nodded. Gently, he returned to his kissing—although this time he avoided her breasts. Karey thought about asking him to spend some time on them but decided not to. He was right. It was too much.

  The sensations were already overpowering. Karey tangled her fingers in Adam’s short hair as he laid her down on the bed, removing her pants as he did so. He kissed up one thigh and down the other, spreading them apart to give him access.

  He did exactly as he said he would, and Karey was overwhelmed with the wonderful sensations sweeping through her body. At one point Adam had to tell her to stop clenching her thighs around his head so tightly but otherwise, it all happened far smoother than she expected. Perhaps it was because Adam was so experienced; his tongue and mouth worked their magic, making her
writhe and moan and arch her back.

  When he thrust his fingers into her while his tongue continued his work, it pushed her over the edge. Karey’s back arched as everything tightened and exploded in her. Fireworks sang through her blood, and she let out a scream that startled even herself. Adam kept going, even while she clenched around him.

  She was panting, her throat raw and dry, by the time he let her come back down. She lay there, staring up at the ceiling, spread out over the bed. Adam climbed up beside her, still fully clothed and wrapped his arms around her. He kissed and cuddled her for a little bit before covering her with the blankets. He disappeared, letting her settle in her own thoughts and came back with some food and water.

  Karey hadn’t realized just how hungry she was until she drank the water. Then her stomach started gurgling, and she ate everything he brought her.

  Adam smiled, letting his hands trace over her body again. “So. How did that feel.”

  “Wonderful.” She smiled shyly at him. “Thank you. I really enjoyed that. It was nice.”

  “Good.” He kissed her again. “I’m glad.”

  Karey dozed lightly in his arms for some time before she convinced her tired, achy body to get up. It was a pleasant ache, but it was still surprisingly difficult to walk. She was quite tender down there. Am I still a virgin?

  She grinned to herself as she stepped into the shower. She didn’t care if she was or not—Adam had given her what she wanted, and she found herself craving more even now. Maybe he’d be able to teach her how to give him pleasure, so it wasn’t just her getting all the good stuff…

  After she was out of the shower and dressed again, she would have suggested it. If it wasn’t for the blast of cold air that came with the door being opened and the Blaze Ops striding in, two women with them. Karey’s eyes widened as she drew back. Adam jumped to his feet where he was tending the fire.

  “What are you doing here?” he yelped.

  Colonel sheen shook the snow out of his hair. His hard eyes lingered on Karey for a moment before he grunted, turning to Adam. “The Academy was attacked,” he rumbled. “It seems the Alpha wants his daughter back.”
