He responded to her whispered plea. “Shh. I’m here, kitten.”
His weight settled on the bed at her feet. The feather duster was lifted from her body. She waited for the next touch with breathless anticipation, her nerves stretched taut.
She could almost feel his hot gaze gliding over her. “So pretty.” He began to pet her pussy and she arched up against it, her thighs closing, trying to lock him in place. “Such a pretty pussy. Keep your legs spread, kitten.” She pushed her knees back into position, opening like a flower to him. “Good girl.”
He ran one finger up and down her slit, moistening it in her dew. The mattress dipped, the rustle of his jeans against the sheets indicating that he was moving up from her feet to her side. The feather duster once again began dancing lightly over her nipples. “Maybe we’ll get these pierced, kitten. What do you think?”
Shock bowed her back up at the thought of getting her nipples pierced. “Nuh-uh.”
Leo laughed, rich and dark, and flicked one finger against her nipple.
A non-existent nipple ring was pulled and twisted, sending spirals of heat straight to her clit. “Are you sure?”
“Uh…” Ruby arched up into the incredibly erotic pain as Leo leaned down and pulled on it with his teeth, catching her nipple and worrying it. “No, no, I think I can live without that,” she whimpered. Pleasure yes, needles no!
He licked the tiny pain, making her hiss in pleasure. “Pretty little rubies to dance on your skin,” he whispered against her, his breath hot on her moist, tight flesh.
“They make those non-pierced, you know.” She felt him still above her and damned the blindfold. She didn’t know if he was laughing or not, but there was no way in hell anyone was getting near her nipples with a needle. “No. Seriously. I saw them on this website—”
“Ruby?”
“Hmm?” She relaxed. His voice was filled with rueful amusement. The sound of his zipper being pulled down was loud.
“Shut up, sweetheart.”
“Um. Okay. But no needles near the nipples, right? I mean, that totally kills the moommmfff…”
A buzzing noise started at the same time Leo slipped his cock between her teeth, rocking back and forth into her mouth. She considered nipping him in protest. The buzzing sound became a vibrating sensation against her clit that sent her arching upwards with a surprised howl of pleasure.
“Like that, do you, kitten?” Leo continued his unhurried pace, his cock shuttling back and forth between her lips. He settled the vibrator between her pussy lips, the sensation almost ticklish. “How about this?”
He leaned over slightly and something soft and round pushed up inside her. The red penis must be a vibrator.
“You’re going to feel the vibrations even more intensely now, kitten,” he whispered as he settled the vibrator deep inside her. Something brushed up against her clit as he began fucking her with it, something that sent delight screaming down her spine. “Those are called the rabbit ears, love. How does it feel?”
She moaned when the “ears” once again brushed her clit.
“Now, don’t forget about me, kitten.” He grasped the back of her head, angling her mouth where he wanted it. He began fucking in and out of her mouth with increased speed, the hand holding the dildo matching him stroke for stroke. Her hips arched up to meet it, driving it in deeper. She let him know of her pleasure the only way she could, moaning around his iron hard flesh and licking him frantically until he groaned.
With an audible pop he pulled out of her sucking mouth. She felt his mouth brush hers lightly before he began kissing his way down her body, pausing long enough to suck on her sensitive nipples. With a twist of his wrist he ground the ears of the vibrator up against her clit and sent her screaming into her first orgasm.
“Oh, yeah, that’s what I like to hear.” Leo’s satisfied voice held an unmistakable hunger in it. The bed began to jiggle again. She could hear cloth rustling and figured he was finally removing his clothes. Her guess was proven right when she felt his hot skin alongside her own, his hand caressing her still quivering flesh. “So, how do you like the vibrator, kitten?”
She thought about it for all of three seconds before she began purring deep in her throat.
“Oh, kitten, you’re in trouble now,” he laughed. He reached over her body for something, the bed dipping, her body swaying with his movements. She wished he’d take the blindfold off. “Ready for your next experience?”
Since he’d begun licking her nipples as he asked the question, her only response could be a small moan.
“I’ll take that as a yes,” he muttered, pulling one tight bud into his mouth and suckling, laving the tip with his tongue until she was writhing on the bed.
She felt him insert the vibrator into her and waited for the delicious sensations to brush her clit again. When those sensations brushed her ass instead, she jerked, not at all certain she liked it.
“Relax for me, kitten. If you don’t like it, I promise I’ll stop. Only pleasure, love.”
“You haven’t come yet,” she muttered, twisting against the strange sensations shooting through her anus. The vibrations echoed distantly in her clit. The fake cock inside her vibrated in time to the ears on her anus. She licked her lips, wanting something, anything, to ease the ache building inside her.
“No, I haven’t. I’m saving it for something, something special.”
She froze. “Special? Should I be afraid?”
He leaned down and kissed her soothingly. “No, sweetheart, nothing to be afraid of.” She heard the cap of the lube being flicked open, the plastic sound loud in the air. “I’m just going to get you ready so I can ream your ass, that’s all.”
He said it so matter-of-factly that it didn’t register at first. “Uh, Leo?”
“Hmm?” His voice was distracted as he pulled the fake cock out of her pussy.
“I’ve never… I mean, I’m not sure…”
“Shhh. I am. Trust me, kitten.”
She did trust him, or she wouldn’t be tied to the bed. Besides, the vibrations against her anus were beginning to feel good. “I am so going to regret this, aren’t I?”
She felt him lean over her body, one slick finger rubbing lube over the pucker of her ass. It glided into her ass, the feeling causing her to clench around him in alarm. “Double-dog dare you.”
Aw hell.
Ruby blew out a rough breath. “Fine, shove whatever it is up my ass!”
“You need to relax, Ruby.”
“No, actually, I don’t.” She sniffed, thoroughly miffed. How could he double-dog dare me on that?
“Yes, you do, or it will hurt.”
She could feel the muffled amusement in his voice as she did her best to do a naked, tied up huff. “Fine, see? All relaxed.”
She felt him sigh and still the finger inside her. “I won’t hurt you, Ruby.”
“What?”
“You don’t trust me, not yet, but I swear I will do nothing you don’t want. So tell me, kitten. Do you want this?”
She sighed, all her half-fun outrage demolished at the seriousness of his tone. He would stop if she said so. “Leo?”
“Yeah, kitten?”
“I trust you.” She forced her body to relax back against the mattress, turning her blind eyes to his voice.
“You sure, kitten? You don’t seem particularly enthusiastic about the prospect of anal sex.”
She shivered. “Limited experience, remember, Leo? How will I know if I like it if you don’t show me?” She could almost feel the wheels turning in his head and shrugged. “Of course, I could go somewhere else for my education.”
She could feel the outrage pour off him, even with the blindfold. “Like hell!” His mouth descended on her breast and suckled her fiercely. His finger soon began shuttling in and out of her body as he switched to the other breast. The hand that wasn’t busy learning her ass moved to her bare mound, his thumb dipping down to begin massaging her clit.
Very q
uickly Ruby found her hips moving in time to his strokes as his mouth swooped down on hers in a devouring, conquering kiss. There was nothing gentle in his mouth as he laid claim to hers. A second slicked finger joined the first in her ass, stretching her out as he fucked them ruthlessly in and out of her.
“You are mine,” he ground out against her lips, and Ruby began to realize what her teasing had unleashed. “No one else will touch you. No one else will have you. Do you hear me?”
“Yes, Leo.” She reached up and brushed a light kiss against his jaw, instinctively trying to soothe the beast she’d unwittingly unleashed.
“No one will take you from me,” he ground out, his voice harsh.
“I won’t leave you,” she whispered, once again trying to soothe him even as her body began to throb.
“Who do you belong to?” The possessiveness in his voice was darkly thrilling. A third finger began shuttling inside her overheated body. It burned, but that burn quickly turned to a dark pleasure that had her arching up into his hand.
“You, I belong to you Leo!”
His fingers scissored open, stretching her, preparing her for what he wanted. He pulled his hands from her body and she cried out, feeling empty. Once again the bed dipped as he reached over her body, his hard and taut above hers, and heard the clack of the plastic lid of the lube being opened. She heard him squelch the lube over something and hoped to God it wasn’t his cock. She wasn’t certain she was ready for that.
“Hold still, kitten.” She felt him begin to thrust something much larger than his fingers into her ass and consciously relaxed her muscles, pushing out against the invasion. The butt plug slipped in with surprising ease, the pleasure mingling with the slight pain as the fat base slipped past her muscles to fit snuggly inside her.
“You did beautifully, kitten,” he whispered against her lips as he positioned his body above hers. “You are so gorgeous with that plug up your ass.”
She felt his cock at the entrance of her pussy and her eyes widened behind the blindfold. She felt full just from the butt plug. How the hell was he going to fit that monster in, as well?
She opened her lips to protest when she felt the head of his cock slip into her pussy. He pushed inside her in a slow, inexorable slide, the satin-smooth iron bar of flesh parting her, and she chocked on her words at the feeling.
She’d never felt so full in her life. It was almost more than she could bear.
And then he began to move.
He began fucking her slowly at first, letting her feel the full slide of him as he pulled out, the gentle push as he reentered her body. She could feel him against the butt plug, such a tight fit she was surprised the flesh between her pussy and ass didn’t rupture.
When he flipped the switch on the butt plug and made it begin to vibrate, she screamed.
Faster and faster he fucked in and out of her body. She could feel his sweat dripping down onto her. He whispered to her in that sweet lilting language she didn’t understand. He began pounding into her as the vibrations in her ass intensified, shuddering in and out of her body so hard she could hear their flesh slapping together.
And she loved every fucking minute of it.
The man of her dreams was fucking her into the mattress, pounding his body against hers, losing that tight control he usually kept on himself. She threw her hips up at him, matching him stroke for stroke, brushing her clit against the base of his cock until she shrieked in an orgasm so intense she nearly passed out from the pleasure of it.
When she heard his shout of completion moments later she was still dealing with the aftershocks and wondering how she would survive their next bout.
She yawned, barely noticing when he released the cuffs that bound her to the bed. She cuddled up against him, blindfold still in place, and succumbed to sleep curled up on his chest.
Leo pulled the butt plug out of her ass with a small wince. When she’d threatened to go to someone else to learn, he’d lost it, taking her like an animal when she deserved so much more, so much better, for a wedding night.
Still, from the small smile on her face as she slept in his arms, maybe it wasn’t a total fuck-up.
Perhaps he shouldn’t have switched the peach plug for the black. It might have been a bit much, especially for a novice.
Still, if this was how his kitten made love when she had very little experience, he couldn’t wait to find out how she’d make love a hundred years from now. Or two hundred.
He reached down and pulled up the comforter, trying his best not to disturb her any more than he had to, and settled in to watch her sleep, guilt and bone-deep satisfaction a strange mix in his blood. He’d clean up the toys later. Cuddling his wife was definitely higher on his to-do list.
Chapter Eight
Ruby woke to sunshine and a wary expression on Leo’s handsome face. “Good morning,” she mumbled.
“Afternoon, actually,” he rumbled, his expression wry. “Hungry?”
“Um. I could eat a horse.” Ruby stretched that full body stretch that usually made his eyes bug out of his head.
This time, he averted his gaze. “I’ll go get some sandwiches.” He slid out of bed and reached for his pants.
“Leo? What’s wrong?” Ruby frowned.
“Nothing.”
“Gee, when I said nothing like that I got the third degree. What should I give you?”
Leo sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose wearily. “I’m sorry.”
“For what?” Ruby had no clue what had him riding the guilt train but was determined to find out.
“I didn’t mean to be so…rough…with you earlier. I’m sorry.”
She thought about that for a moment watching him pull on his T-shirt. He made his way to the bedroom door and she knew she had to say something now or forever hold her peace. “I never said stop.”
He paused, one hand on the doorknob, his back tensing as he heard the thoughtful note in her voice.
“Think about it, Leo. I never said stop. You said you would if I said it, remember?”
She watched as he turned to her, relief and regret equally mingled. “I lost my head.”
“I know.”
“I could have hurt you.”
“Nope.”
He frowned. “What do you mean, nope?”
“I mean, you’d never hurt me.”
“Not deliberately! Accidentally!” Leo’s hands pushed through his hair, pulling slightly at it. “I lost control, Ruby. I could have hurt you.”
She shook her head, coming out of the bed and padding quietly over to him. “Nope.” She hooked her arms around his waist and leaned into him, letting him feel her trust in him. The love she was beginning to feel for him warmed her as she cuddled against him, uncaring that she was completely naked.
His arms went around her, hard and secure. “I was scared to death when you didn’t wake up after the Binding. That wasn’t how I planned on spending our wedding day, Ruby. And then when you did wake up I lost control. I’m so sorry, kitten.”
Ruby tensed at the words “wedding day”. “Leo?”
“Hmm?” He’d buried his face in her hair and was breathing deep, his big body relaxing into hers.
“When did we get married?”
She felt him stiffen in her arms, and not in the good way. “I explained the bonding to you, remember?”
“Yes, I think so.”
“The Claiming, the Vow and the Binding?”
“I remember the Claiming, Leo. Details on the rest, please! When did we complete the ceremony, and where was I?”
He stared at her, his expression shocked. “In the front yard. Malmayne tried to take you away from me.” Hazy memories began to surface, of Cullen yanking her out of Leo’s arms, calling her human with such derision she’d felt soiled. No wonder her harmless teasing had unleashed his beast! “I used earth magic to get him away from you and spoke the Vow.” More memories surfaced, of Leo surrounded by incredible power, living tendrils of light that swept all be
fore him as he made his way to her side. “Once the Vow was spoken the Binding took place.” He showed her the picture in her mind, of his power spearing into her as he finished the Vow, causing her to black out. “Our truebond is complete now.”
She glared at him, her mind whirling a mile a minute. “Don’t I have to repeat the Vow for it to be binding?” No pun intended.
His face went still. “It’s different with non-Sidhe.” She saw the wince more in his eyes than on his face when she raised her brows. “Non-Sidhe don’t have to repeat the Vows back for them to work.”
She tilted her head, confused. In the kitchen his father had repeated the vows. “Didn’t Sean repeat them when Aileen said them to him?”
Leo coughed. “Well, no, actually. He didn’t. Not the first time, anyway.”
Her eyes went wide. “You mean she bound Sean against his will?” She couldn’t begin to imagine trying to force Sean to do something he didn’t want to do.
Leo chuckled. “Now, that’s a story.” Leo put his arm around her shoulder, guided her back to the bed, and sat her down on the edge. He moved the chair over by the bed and settled into it directly across from her. “When Mom was sent to Paris to meet with Duncan Malmayne for the first time, it seems Dad was there slumming.”
“Slumming?”
“It was the eighteen eighties, and Paris was the place to be at the time. That, or New York, from what I’ve been told, and Dad had decided to do the European tour thing. Anyway, Mom met Duncan and was agreeable to the marriage contract. Then, one night at the opera, she saw Dad. Said something about their eyes met, he winked at her, and she was lost. She went looking for him the next day.”
“The Malmaynes must have been furious.”
“They didn’t know. Mom snuck out, started asking questions about the blue-eyed Irishman. When she found him she took one whiff of his scent and almost bound him on the spot.”
“Wow. Really? What did he smell like?”
Leo smiled. “Mom always says Dad smells like home.”
Ruby sighed mistily. “I really like your parents.”
“Well, it took a few days, and a lot of flirting, but Mom finally got him to kiss her.”
