Seduced by Magic

by Cheyenne McCray

  But she wanted him. Goddess, did she want him.

  Nevertheless, she hurried to finish the last braid. Without warning him, she took the wooden cup, filled it from the lower basin with ice-cold water, and poured it over his head.

  That should cool things down a little, she thought, as Tiernan sputtered and turned to glare at her.

  She gave him a sweet smile and dumped another cup, then another over his hair as the chilly water ran down his wonderful naked back, that incredible chest, along that flat belly straight to—a very hard erection beneath his leather pants.

  Copper hurried to finish wetting every bit of his hair, which was still sticking up despite being wet. She took the lid off the wooden container and tossed the lid aside before using her fingers to scoop out some of the special shampoo the Faeries had made for her own frizzy occasions. The pentagram on her thick copper bracelet glittered with her movements.

  As she washed his hair with the shampoo and the frizz died down, Tiernan cleared his throat. “Tell me about your life, Copper.”

  “Turnabout’s fair play, I suppose.” She gave a shrug as she soaped his hair. To keep it from staying curly, the shampoo had to be worked in thoroughly. “You know about my family.” Her voice caught as she thought about her mother, but forced herself to go on. “You know I’m a witch and I have a honeybee familiar. I’m trapped with a whole bunch of pissed-off Fae, who think this is all my fault, in some kind of bubble.” She scooped up water in the tumbler. “Close your eyes because I’m going to rinse the soap out now.”

  He leaned over to keep the soap out of his eyes. “What else?” he asked even as he shivered from the cold water.

  “Hmmmm . . . I pitch a mean game of softball, I could probably give you a run for your money. And I majored in education at a university.”

  “How old are you?” he asked as more soap ran down his face and body when she poured another cup of water on him.

  “Oh, probably what would be a nanosecond in your lifetime.” She was almost finished. She squeezed out the excess water, then finger-combed his hair as he rose back up. “Twenty-six. I went to the university for four years, took some night classes for a couple of years, then went back to get my masters.”

  “You teach?” he asked, as she moved around to face him so that they were eye to eye.

  “Not yet, but I plan to.” She pushed her hair behind her ear and wondered where Zeph was. “I’ve been taking it slow. So much was going on with my Coven, including my becoming an Adept. I was also helping Silver run the Coven’s store and taking one night class each semester.”

  Their eyes met and held. She was sitting so close to him that her thigh brushed his. “Blue,” she whispered.

  He raised an eyebrow. “Blue what?”

  “My favorite color today is blue.” She drank in the sight of him. His incredible physique, the intense look on his well-defined features, his wet, blond hair that now fell straight back behind his broad shoulders. And those eyes . . . “You have the most beautiful eyes I’ve ever seen.”

  Tiernan moved so fast he caught her by surprise. One second she’d been sitting, the next she was lying on her back staring up at him.

  Nine

  Flames burned through Copper like wildfire as Tiernan braced his knees on each side of her legs, his hands on either side of her head, her back pressed against the soft grass. His musky male scent blended with that of the dandelion shampoo she had just used on his hair. His mouth—she couldn’t take her eyes off his firm lips. Sexy and so very masculine.

  His features had an intense look and her belly went straight to her toes as he dipped his head down. When Tiernan’s lips met hers, it was hot, fiery, passionate. He held nothing back, his mouth moving over hers, his teeth nipping at her bottom lip, and his tongue thrusting into her mouth.

  Copper moaned and writhed beneath him as she reached up to slide her arms around his neck, beneath his wet hair. She brought him tightly to her and at the same time she pressed her mouth harder to his. She matched his passion, tasting him, biting at his lower lip, and moaning into his mouth. It was the most incredible kiss she’d ever experienced in her life.

  Tiernan’s wet hair fell forward to slide over her neck and her breasts. He groaned and drew away from her, his beautiful eyes meeting hers and holding her gaze with such an intense look she couldn’t have turned away if she wanted to. His breathing was hard and she felt the warmth of it against her cheeks.

  Her own breathing was just as harsh and the sensations in her body were nearly out of control. Her blood pounded hard in her ears and she felt a zing in her belly that made its way to her damp pussy.

  “Little fire,” Tiernan said in a low gravelly voice, “I do not think you know how close I am to fucking you. Now.”

  Copper slipped one of her hands from his neck, and his abdomen tensed beneath her fingers as she trailed them down, down to his pants. She cupped him by the balls and his eyes grew dark and stormy. The arms he had braced to either side of her head trembled and his jaw tightened.

  “Don’t wait.” She squeezed his erection and brought her hand up to tug at one of the ties of his tight leather pants. “Fuck me now.”

  “Copper . . .” His growl grew deeper as she released his cock and ran her small hand up and down its length.

  “I mean it.” She tugged at his cock, forcing him to lower himself closer to her wet pussy. “I need this. I need it so badly I can hardly stand it.”

  Tiernan moved so that he was between her legs, forcing her thighs wide apart. Sweat had broken out on his brow from the effort to hold himself back.

  Copper released his erection to tug up her dress, baring her pussy. The scent of her juices combined with his masculine musk made her heady.

  She wrapped her legs around his hips, forcing him lower so that his cock pressed hard against her mound.

  “Goddamn it, Tiernan.” She reached up and kissed him hard. “Fuck me,” she said against his lips.

  He raised his face to the sky and with a pained expression he rocked his hips so that his cock rubbed from the curls of her mound to her now bare belly. But not where she wanted him. She slipped her fingers around his erection and started to guide it to her pussy.

  “No.” He had a tortured look on his face when his gaze met hers again. “You could get with child.”

  “Uh-uh.” Copper reached up to kiss him hard. “I’m a witch. Even without my wand, I can conjure a magical shield within me that protects me from everything.” She brought the head of his cock to her channel. “Consider it conjured.”

  Tiernan gave a growl. Copper raised her hips so that he slid a fraction into her channel.

  “Hurry,” she begged. “I need you now.”

  With one thrust, he buried his cock deep, deep inside her.

  “Oh, sweet goddess.” At that moment she couldn’t imagine anything else feeling so good. She clenched her legs tighter around him, her body adjusting to the length and girth of his cock. “Don’t move.”

  Immediately he looked concerned. “Did I hurt you?”

  “Um, no.” She raised her hips so that his groin was hard against her mound. “You just feel so damn good.”

  A droplet of sweat rolled from his forehead onto her cheek. “I cannot hold back much longer.”

  “Don’t.” She began moving her hips up and down. “Fuck me harder than you ever have fucked anyone before.”

  Tiernan took her at her word and rammed into her and she cried out at the incredible feel of it. He thrust so hard, his hips slamming into hers, that she knew she was going to be bruised. She reveled in it. Goddess, but she needed this. He felt so good, the head of his cock hitting that sweet spot deep inside her, his leather pants rubbing against the inside of her thighs, her dress bunched up around her waist.

  Her body trembled and a sensation swept through her like a thousand tiny pinpricks from her scalp to her toes. A flush of heat followed the prickling sensation and her mind began to whirl. She imagined tiny golden bubbles spar
kling around them just as her orgasm burst through her.

  Copper couldn’t help the cry that tore from her throat, no more than she could stop her body from trembling, shuddering with every wave of her climax.

  Tiernan kept thrusting in and out, harder, harder, harder, drawing out her orgasm. Moments later he gave a shout that sounded like triumph, a pure male cry that made her channel convulse even harder around his cock as he throbbed inside her. They were both sweaty and out of breath.

  He stopped and pressed his hips tight to hers as he looked down at her. “Godsdamn, woman.”

  She gave a smile of satisfaction as he rolled onto his side, bringing her with him so that they were pressed chest to chest, his thigh pinning hers down, his cock still inside her. He traced his finger over her nose. “Such sweet Faerie kisses.”

  “Freckles.” Copper kissed him, moving her mouth gently over his, before drawing back and looking into his intense eyes. “Ready for another round?”

  Words failed him as the beautiful woman untangled herself from his arms and stood so that he was looking up at her. The sweet curls of her mound glistened with her wetness, her musk nearly driving him mad.

  A sexy smile curved the corners of her mouth as she reached down to grab her dress from where it bunched at her waist. She tugged it over her breasts and over her head in a lithe movement. He could not take his eyes from her full breasts. She was right—he apparently was a “breast man,” and hers were perfection. Her nipples were taut, and when she reached up and pinched them between her fingers, he groaned. Copper groaned, too, and tilted her face to the sky as she kneaded her nipples and her breasts.

  Tiernan pushed himself to his knees and grabbed her by her hips. “This time we do it my way,” he said in a voice husky with lust. “And right now I must taste you.” The moment he buried his face against her mound, Tiernan thought she gave the sweetest cry he had ever heard.

  Copper never remembered feeling anything like this in any of her sexual experiences. His tongue—goddess, his tongue did wonderful things to her clit. Incredible. He repeated the same motions and he gave low growling sounds as if he were staking his territory.

  She couldn’t help but watch him as he rubbed his face against her mound and buried his tongue in her folds. His stubble was rough against her soft skin, adding to the intensity of what he was doing to her. Sensation shot from her nipples to her pussy as she continued to pinch and pull them hard. She liked it hard. Liked everything about sex to be rough. Hard and fast.

  He paused to look up at her, his face damp with her juices. “I do not think I have tasted anything so fine as you.”

  “Then don’t stop.” She dropped her hands from her breasts and slipped her fingers into his still damp hair and pressed his head tight to her tingling flesh. “Dammit, don’t stop!”

  Tiernan must have sensed her need for roughness because he rubbed his face hard against her pussy and thighs and thrust three fingers into her channel.

  When he nipped her clit her climax nearly made her drop to her knees. Her legs wobbled and she had to fist her hands tighter in his hair. Only his firm grip on her hips kept her from falling as her orgasm melted every bone in her body until she felt like a rag doll. He didn’t stop licking and sucking until she begged him to. She was barely aware of golden bubbles of light floating around them.

  He got to his feet and caught her as she collapsed against his chest. His skin felt hard and warm beneath her cheek and it took a moment to gather herself. When she finally raised her head, he immediately took her mouth, kissing just as roughly as he had licked and sucked her pussy. She tasted herself on his tongue, smelled her juices on his face, and the tingle in her belly magnified, giving her renewed strength. She felt as though she could actually stand on her own two feet.

  Copper drew away from him and skimmed her fingers down his chest to his cock. To her satisfaction it was as hard as it had been the first time he’d taken her. She grabbed the waist of his leather pants and tugged them farther down so that his pants rode low on his hips. “I need you out of these.”

  He cupped her cheek and rubbed his thumb along her jawline. “Godsdamn, you are beautiful.”

  “The pants.” She gave another tug so that they were down around his ass. “Don’t try to distract me.”

  Tiernan backed away and shucked off his boots as she watched. Goddess, was he a cliché. Perfect physique, broad shoulders and chest, and long blond hair that went a little beyond his shoulders. Trim hips and an ass she just wanted to bite—not to mention a cock that had just filled her so well she didn’t think she’d ever be satisfied with another man—unless he was hung and built like Tiernan. His thigh muscles worked as he kicked off his pants and she sighed. “Damn, but a guy like you could ruin a girl for other men.”

  His look was heated as he stepped away from his clothing and brought her up against him. The feel of his flesh against hers, his chest to her breasts, his cock to her belly, his thighs against hers—she thought she’d melt all over again. He kissed her hard before she slipped out of his grasp and slid down his length to her knees.

  Tiernan had never met a woman like Copper. He had never wanted a woman as much as he wanted her.

  The moment she took his cock and wrapped her fingers around it, he groaned—and when she slipped his erection deep into her mouth he thought he had never felt anything so exquisite in his life.

  “Gods, little fire.” He fisted his hands tighter in her hair as she moved her mouth and one hand along his length, while using her other hand to stroke his balls. “I am certain I could fuck you all night long.”

  Copper responded by meeting his gaze with hers and flicking her tongue around the crown of his cock in a slow, sensual movement. Her eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she let his erection slip from her mouth and blew softly on the head.

  She was going to kill him.

  When he growled and brought her face closer to his groin, she gave a soft laugh before taking him deep into her mouth again, as far as she could. She began sucking him in earnest, moving her hand up his shaft at the same time she slid her mouth down him, while fondling his balls. She gave a gentle squeeze as she scraped her teeth along his erection and he almost climaxed.

  Tiernan gritted his teeth. The oncoming orgasm was traveling through him like a storm.

  The storm broke loose.

  Lightning flashed in his mind as his seed shot down Copper’s throat. He groaned his release, his hips jerking against her face as she continued to suck him.

  With his body still shuddering from his orgasm, he forced her to stop by pulling back at the same time he tugged at her hair to draw her away from him. If she did not stop he was going to collapse into a heap—rather undignified for a warrior.

  She gave him a knowing grin before rising. “That good, huh?”

  He growled and released her hair to take her by the shoulders and help her stand. “Your teasing will only lead me to fuck you again, woman.”

  “I damn sure hope so.” She tilted her head and he kissed her, a hard kiss full of the insistent desire that would not release him.

  He wanted to be gentle with her, but he could not. Just kissing her slammed him with more need and desire than he thought could ever be quenched. How could he feel this way with one woman, a woman he had just met?

  But it already felt as though she were a part of him.

  Copper woke the next morning with her face against Tiernan’s chest, her head tucked under his chin. They were still naked and she reveled in the feel of his bare flesh against hers. His thigh was slung over her hip and, if she wasn’t mistaken, he had a full-on morning erection.

  She was so sore and it felt so damn good. The man’s stamina was incredible—they’d fucked three more times after she’d given him head. She smiled. Maybe it was because he wasn’t human. He was a man, but he was a Fae warrior and that obviously gave him more sexual endurance than any man she’d ever met.

  Copper breathed deeply of his scent and the i
ncredible sex they’d had. It could be due to the fact she hadn’t had sex for over a year, but she had a feeling it was everything about him that made her want him so badly.

  What had been really strange was that every time they reached orgasm, it seemed as if some kind of wild magic rocked her world.

  Sex magic?

  Sex magic could be incredibly powerful, she’d been told. She’d read that in Mrs. Illes’s Grimoire, too.

  Still cuddled in his arms, Copper skimmed one of her hands down his muscled chest to his taut abdomen, all the way to his cock. He felt so good beneath her palm. She loved the feel of the soft skin of his erection and the steel beneath it.

  As soon as she wrapped her fingers around his length, he let out a sleepy groan. She smiled and pushed at his shoulder until he was lying on his back and she was straddling him. There was just enough room in the shelter that she could ride him without bumping her head. With no hesitation, she took his cock and slowly sank onto it and sighed with pleasure.

  “Woman, you are all fire,” he said as he grasped her small waist with his large hands while she rose up and down on him, taking him deep.

  “With you, definitely.” She continued riding him in a smooth and steady rhythm as her gaze met his blue eyes. “All I want to do is feel you inside me.” She groaned as she felt her climax start to build within her. “And orgasm. Yeah, definitely orgasm.”

  He gave what looked like a pained smile as his hips bucked up to meet hers and she rode him faster and harder until she gave a cry of sheer pleasure. She saw those golden bubbles in her mind as she climaxed, each one sparkling with every throb of her pussy.

  Tiernan gave one last thrust of his cock and groaned as he pulsed inside her. She leaned forward and kissed him before snuggling against his chest, just enjoying the moment. Yes, what she felt with him was magic. Golden bubbles and all.

  “Guess we’d better get up,” she finally said.
