Demon Slave (Shadow Quest Book 2)
Page 27
To help it feel less like a dull compartment on a ship, Nadua had brought in a few low light plants from the nursery. Marik hadn’t really said anything on the matter. He’d just watched her rearrange the pots with the same heat in his eyes that he was showing her now.
Nadua teased him with swish of her hips, easing her way to the bed. Marik followed as if it were impossible for him not to.
He caught her at the waist, stopping her in her tracks. Her body molded into his with the first hint of a kiss.
Against his lips she moaned, “I love you.”
Next thing she knew, her back was to the bed and Marik’s shirt was off. He was pressing his hard frame against her. Mind going fuzzy, she arched against him, encouraging him. His hands knew exactly where to go, and when to get there.
Through kisses, she pulled off her shirt while he worked on her pants. His fingers found her core, making her gasp at the contact. At the same time, his lips trailed down her jaw, her neck, then seeking one taut nipple.
She let her head fall back as he did wicked things to her body, driving her to a mindless need for more. Moving down, caressing as he went, his tongue took the place of his fingers and he groaned as though the mere taste of her gave him tremendous pleasure.
Her head thrashed wildly and she gripped the sheets at her side as her orgasm burst through her. He rode her though it, not stopping until she could take no more. He rose over her and she felt his thick shaft seeking her entrance.
Catching her breath, Nadua pulled back from the bliss and placed a palm on his chest. Marik halted, eyes at half-mast and burning with dark promises.
The sight made her shudder, but she had to ask before she lost her nerve. “Marik? Do you...love me?”
His brows drew together. For a moment he just gazed at her.
What if he says no?
Her teeth clenched.
“How could you not know that I love you?” He paused, seeing the doubt in her mind.
Nadua lifted one shoulder, hiding a satisfied smile. A knot in her stomach eased and she sighed in relief.
“I’ve loved you since the first time you called me an edisdon dicksucker.”
She snorted out a laugh. “You jerk, I’m serious.”
“So am I.” His voice roughened. “You’re the most amazing creature I’ve ever beheld. You’re fierce, and wild. Brave, and sexy as hell.” He gripped her thigh. “Your legs drive me out of my head. I think you knew that from the start, you naughty wench, because after seeing them, I was hooked.”
She laughed at that.
“But it wasn’t until that first night together, when I had you in my arms and your scent branded me, that my heart became yours. And though I fought it hard, I fell in love with you in a dingy cave, under the cloak of darkness. And every time you look at me, smile for me, you cause my addiction to grow.”
At some point during his speech, her jaw had dropped. She closed it and a smile spread over her lips.
“Satisfied, my love?”
Nodding, she could only reply, “Mm-hmm.”
He kissed her hard, and held her hips as he slipped into her, their bodies joined, their eyes locked. “Not yet you’re not.”
