"I love you, Danni," he said as he leaned in for a kiss.
"Love you, too," she mumbled as his lips descended on hers.
This kiss was slow and sweet and no less intense than the ones before it. She cupped his jaw in her hands, enjoying the feel of the early morning whiskers that teased her palm, as she slowly rode him, barely lifting off of him as she made love to a man for the first time in her life. There was no doubt in her mind that this was love. This was intense and beautiful and she felt like everything in her life had led her here to this moment.
When she felt her orgasm building up she tried to ignore it, tried to put it off for a little while longer so that she could enjoy this for a little while longer, but there was nothing she could do to stop wave after wave of pleasure as it shot throughout her body. She squeezed her eyes shut as her breath caught in her throat as a powerful orgasm rocked her body, leaving her helpless to do anything other than to hold onto Caine tightly as his name was ripped from her lips in a loud scream.
"Danni," she thought she heard Caine growl as she felt him swell beyond what her body should have been able to handle seconds before she felt him release inside of her. The sensation of his hot release and the way his cock rubbed her in all the right ways sent her over once again.
"Love you, Danni," Caine said as she collapsed against him. "Love you so damn much, baby."
Since she was gasping for air at the moment and couldn't very well be expected to answer him she settled for nodding. She took the kiss he gave her forehead as acceptance of her gesture of her undying love for him. It was a heartfelt gesture after all, she thought as she closed her eyes and felt herself relax.
********
"Danni?" Caine whispered as he rolled over onto his side and propped himself up on his elbow as he looked over his very beautiful and very naked mate.
She was lying on top of one of the sleeping bags Jax gave them with her head pillowed on her folded arms. He ran his eyes over her and couldn't help but smile in appreciation. His mate was exquisite from her beautiful midnight black hair that fanned her arm down to her cute little toes. There wasn't anything that he didn't like about his mate and he'd proved that several times in the glen before he carried her back to their tent and made love to her several more times. When she passed out, he was forced to go hunt down the cooler of blood Jax had sent out for and consumed several bags. When he came back she was still sleeping so he decided to rest, but that hadn't lasted long. He just couldn't rest until he knew if the cancer was still in her system.
"Baby, I have to check your blood," he said, gently brushing the hair out of the way so that he could see the side of her beautiful face.
When she only grumbled he decided that he couldn't wait until she was awake. He needed to know how her blood levels were. She was probably going to have to have her blood checked several times a day for eternity to make sure the cancer wasn't getting too strong or risk her body shutting down again. It scared the hell out of him to think of that happening around humans. They'd think that she was dead and probably bury her or cremate her.
If they buried her, she could be forever out of his reach and stuck in a box in the ground for god only knows how long, but if they cremated her she'd come back before the last bone turned to ash, he knew this from experience. They'd keep her in that oven until they realized that something was wrong. He wasn't sure if she'd feel any pain while she was in limbo, but he wasn't willing to risk it. His mate was staying with him, end of story.
"Just checking your blood, Danni," he said as he moved over her until his legs were positioned on either side of her closed ones and he was leaning over her. He brushed her hair away from her neck and prepared himself for the vile taste her blood was about to leave in his mouth. It was nothing like the mouthwatering aroma she gave off, the one that drove him out of his mind over the years, but for her he'd suck it up and deal with it.
He allowed his fangs to slide down as he leaned over her until his stomach brushed against the curve of her ass and his breaths tickled her hair. As carefully as he could he used the tip of his fang to make a small cut on the side of her throat. When a few drops of blood welled up in the area he took a deep breath, closed his eyes and licked up the drops. He received a shock of a lifetime.
The cancer was still there, he could taste the slightest hint of it, but it was easily ignored as the most mouthwatering flavor that he'd ever experienced washed over his tongue. He leaned in to sample more of it only to pull back before he did something foolish. He couldn't take any blood from her. Not only would that weaken her and possibly allow the cancer to take over, but they weren't sure what her blood would do to him or anyone else for that matter. He wouldn't do anything that would weaken her or make it impossible for him to protect and care for her so for her he ignored the blood.
Within seconds the small cut he made was healing and taking temptation with it. He moved to climb off of her when his damn cock, which was always at least at half-mast around her, had to go and make contact with her ass and just like that he was hard and more than ready to see how loud he could make her scream, but she needed sleep, he reminded himself as he tried to pull back.
His cock had other ideas. When he pulled back away from her the damn thing jerked and gave her ass a little slap that had him groaning and Danni moaning in her sleep. Well, that really was too intriguing to ignore.
He really should let her sleep, but he just couldn't help himself. With a slight flex of his hips he rubbed his cock over her ass again and couldn't help but smile when she moaned again so of course he did it again and again until his cock found its way against her cheeks and continued to rub while Danni moaned and licked her lips hungrily.
Curious, he pulled back to see what she would do and damn if her beautiful ass didn't lift and tried following after him. When he kept pulling back, she kept following, pouting and grumbling adorably as she struggled between waking up for sex and sleeping, greedy little thing, he thought with a chuckle.
When her ass was up in the air he decided to take a moment to simply enjoy the view. He reached down and gripped himself, slowly stroking as he looked her over and because he couldn't help himself he reached out and palmed one smooth, firm cheek and groaned. Her legs were pressed firmly together, but he could still see enough of her sex to know that she was swollen and wet. It didn't hurt that he could scent her arousal, but he liked a visual to go along with it.
While he continued to stroke himself he allowed his other hand to slowly glide down her ass and over her closed legs, which of course brought his hand in contact with her wet slit. He liked the way she moaned, but he liked the way she screamed better. He teased her slit with the tip of his finger for another minute before he replaced it with the head of his cock, making damn sure to make sure his piercing slid between her slit. She was so damn wet that his piercing had no trouble sliding through the tight space.
"Stop teasing me," Danni said, panting even as she moaned and wiggled her beautiful ass enticingly.
"How exactly am I teasing you?" he asked, chuckling as her ass wiggled again, demanding that he get on with it.
"Give me an orgasm, you jerk, or I'll kick your ass!" she snapped, wiggling her ass to add emphasis to her demands.
"Well, since you put it that way," he muttered with a putout sigh as released his cock and gripped her hips to hold her still as he pushed inside of her. From this position it was actually a hell of a lot tighter and he was forced to use his weight to push in, but once he was in, all he could do was drop his head forward and groan long and loud as he experienced the tightest sheathe in his very long life.
It didn't help his concentration when Danni decided to have an orgasm then and there. Somehow he managed not to lose it as she squeezed him tightly and rewarded him by coating his cock with her arousal. This woman was wonderful and he knew that it was only going to get better. He'd be shocked if she didn't still have the ability to leave him panting like a fool in a few centuries.
He li
cked his lips hungrily as he leaned back, uncaring that the top of his head was pressing tightly against the top of the tent, and palmed both cheeks before he parted them to the sides and gave himself one hell of a view. How he didn't lose it then and there he'd never know, but he sure as hell enjoyed the visual.
For several minutes he watched his wet cock disappear inside her only to reappear seconds later, glistening and ready for more. He released her cheeks with one last squeeze and slid his hands down her back just enjoying the freedom to touch her.
She was his mate, his woman, his to protect, love and kill for and he would never forget that. It didn't matter to him any longer that he hadn't planned for things to end up like this. None of that bullshit mattered to him any longer. The only thing that mattered was keeping Danni safe and happy and judging by the way she was slamming back into him and moaning his name he'd say that he was doing a pretty good job so far, but just in case.......
He'd never done this with another woman, but he knew that she'd be able to handle it. He sped up his pace until his movements were a blur and pounded into her as he held her down where he needed her by the nape as his thumb caressed her neck.
"Say it, Danni," he demanded over her load moans.
"If you stop, Caine, I will-"
He choked out a half-laugh at that. "That's not what I wanted to hear," he said tightly, unable to help but smile at the Danni-like answer.
"Oh," she said around a low, needy moan. "Please don't stop?" she guessed, panting hard as she tried to push back against him, but he wasn't having that. He liked her right where she was. In the hot springs he let her take the lead, but right now he was controlling their pleasure and he wouldn't be denied the one thing that he knew would send him over the edge.
Who knew three simple words could turn him on so much?
"Tell me you love me, Danni," he said even though the woman really should be screaming it at the top of her lungs every chance she got.
"Will you fuck me harder if I do?" she asked after a slight pause.
"I'll stop fucking you if you don't!" he snapped back, lying his ass off.
"Fine," she said, sounding a bit put out even as she moaned. "I love you. Now can you get on with it?"
"You're going to drive me out of my mind, aren't you?" he growled out as he did just that and he prayed like hell that she never stopped teasing him and driving him nuts. He loved his mate and wouldn't have her any other way, except her screaming his name, but he got that a minute later.
Chapter 44
Boston Compound
"It's time," one of his guards said as the glass door slid open and several Sentinels holding crosses, holy water and stakes blocked the doorway.
With a sigh, Logan stood up. He wasn't exactly surprised that his execution had been ordered only days after he was found in a compromising situation with a Sentinel's sister, but he was hoping to speak with Izzy one last time. It looked like he was going to have to put that off for a little while.
"Where is Jill?" he asked as he waited to see which men were planning on trying to restrain him, probably the man in front and the larger of the three men in back, he mused as he watched those men break off to the sides and approach him while the other two men readied their weapons.
He was actually a little shocked that they'd waited until night time to do this, but then again they did have their hands full with the war still from what he heard. So this was probably the first chance they had to coordinate this little staking.
"She's no concern of yours, Leech," the blonde man, who readied his stake spat out as the two men made their move to grab him.
None of his concern?
Well, that was just foolish. Jill was his property no matter what ill-conceived notions the woman had. She'd given herself to him and he made damn sure to mark her. With a sigh, he grabbed the larger of the two by the arm, twisted it until the sound of a wet branch snapping echoed through his cell and dropped the man to the ground before grabbing the other one as he made a frantic grab for Logan.
The man's expression registered shock seconds before Logan snapped his neck. The sweet smell of the men's blood told him that they were older Sentinels, which sometimes made his job a lot easier. They were stubborn and set in their ways. He had no doubts that if he was dealing with the young Sentinel named Chris that he would have his hands full right about now, but these Sentinels used very predictable moves to try and take him down.
The Sentinels put up a good fight and did a decent amount of damage, but in the end he was the one stepping out of the cell. He considered setting off the alarm by the elevator to draw more Sentinels down here to exact a little more revenge, but that would be foolish and he was not a foolish man. He knew exactly what he needed to do and this time he would not be swayed from his purpose.
*********
"Give me ten more minutes, baby," Caine mumbled as he turned his head to press a swift kiss to her stomach before going back to treating her like a pillow.
She sighed heavily as she gently ran her fingers through his hair. She hated to do this, she really did....okay, she really didn't, she thought with an excited little grin. In fact, she couldn't wait to get started. Unfortunately for her the big baby sprawled out on top of her demanded a nap. That was about twenty minutes ago. He should be good to go now, she decided as she placed her hands on his shoulders and gave him a little shake.
"I need sleep, woman. Don't make me kill you," he said gruffly as he snuggled against her.
Maybe she should let him sleep. As far as she knew he hadn't slept much in the last couple of days. He'd also been feeding her and taking care of her and she probably should just let him rest. A moment later she decided to leave the poor man alone and let him rest. It was the least she could do for him after all.
As carefully as she could she tried to push him off of her so that she could get up, but of course the stubborn man grumbled and bitched as he settled back on top of her. When she tried to move him again he growled, actually growled at her!
"Caine," she said, sighing in exasperation as he tightened his hold on her and moved up until his head was nestled between her breasts. "If you want to get some sleep then let me up," she said, moving to give him another gentle shove that he easily ignored.
"Comfy," he mumbled as he as pressed a butterfly kiss to the side of her breast.
"Caine,-"
"Sleepy."
"Caine," she said, biting back a smile even as she rolled her eyes, "I'm not tired. I want to get up. So, if you could just-"
"No."
"Caine,-"
"Shhhhh," butterfly kiss, "sleepy."
"Fine," she said with a sigh as she gave up her plans to escape and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. She couldn't help but laugh softly when he rewarded her with another butterfly kiss.
For several long minutes she lay there with him in her arms as she tried to fall asleep, but the problem was that she wasn't tired. She was full of energy and needed to get it out. After their day of nonstop sex she should be exhausted, but oddly enough she wasn't.
Anxious would be a better way to describe what she was feeling right now. Now that they were free and had their relationship sorted out, well they sort of did. There were still a lot of things they had to settle between them, but for right now she was content to leave things the way they were. They had plenty of time, an eternity actually to work things out. All she wanted to focus on was testing out her new abilities and maybe seeing if she could finally kick Caine's ass, for curiosity sake of course.
Caine chuckled around a groan as he pressed another kiss against her breast and pushed himself up so that he was hovering over her and looked down at her. Even as she saw him in shades of blue thanks to her night vision, the man was incredibly sexy. She reached up and ran her fingers over the tattoo covering his jaw and couldn't help smiling. This man was all hers.
"You want to go play around with your new abilities, don't you?" he asked, chuckling as he leaned down and gave her
a quick kiss.
"Maybe," she said, following after his lips as she considered doing something else with her newfound energy.
"I guess we can do that since I know that you won't let me sleep until I show you," he said, pulling back, but not before he leaned in and kissed the hell out of her.
Just when she was about to push him down onto his back and mount him, he pulled back and grabbed his jeans. He had them on before she could put up much of a protest.
Caine chuckled as he zipped up and moved to leave their tent. "Hurry, baby, and maybe I'll let you pin me," he said with a wink before he disappeared.
She had to snort at that. Like she really needed him to let her do anything now. She was a Pyte and could hold her own. In fact, she could probably kick his ass in under two minutes flat and have him begging for mercy.
*******
"Oh my God, you sick bastard!" Danni snapped as she struggled to hold onto the tree limb he'd left her on twenty minutes ago.
