  “Good night,” he told the others as he led her out the door.

  “Maybe tomorrow you can tell me what the tree looks like. I’ve never seen one, but my mother used to describe it to me when I was a child.”

  “Maybe you’ll get to see one for yourself someday,” he told her. He hadn’t mentioned this to her yet, but with the dragon’s healing abilities, it wasn’t out of the realm of possibility that she might benefit from their mating, and if it helped her make her decision to be mated easier, then he’d take it.

  “No. It’s impossible. I’ve seen every specialist out there,” she said as they entered the bedroom. Before he could say anything more, Maddie released his hand, grabbed a package from the bed, and headed for the bathroom. She turned only enough for him to see her nibbling on her lip. “I’ll be right back. You might want to take some of your clothes off, I want to give you your Christmas present a little early,” she said, before disappearing into the washroom and closing the door.

  THIRTEEN

  Maddie freshened up before putting on the sexy blue negligee Stella had helped her pick, promising it was his favorite color. It clung to her curves just right, and when she slid her fingers around the edge of silky material covering her breasts, she found a generous amount of cleavage exposed. Perfect. Never in a million years had she thought she would tie herself to a man after having only known him for a couple of days, but that was exactly what she was doing. And what was worse, she had no doubts that it was what she wanted and needed most.

  She took a moment to brush her hair out, letting it fall in soft waves around her shoulders, then finally went back to the bedroom.

  The moment she came in, his sexy growl filled the room. She made herself walk slowly, wanting him to watch her as she came to him, swaying her hips for his benefit. She was a woman on a mission, and by the end of the night, he would be hers.

  “You look stunning,” he told her. Sitting on the edge of the bed as he was, his head was at the perfect height, so when he leaned forward, he placed a soft kiss on each mound of her breasts, but as much as she enjoyed it, she wouldn’t be sidetracked.

  “Did you take all your clothes off?” she asked. Before he had the chance to answer, she placed her palms on his chest and shoved him back, not aggressively, but enough that he knew that she wanted.

  “I did.”

  She climbed over him, straddling his stomach, caressing his chest with the tips of her fingers. Goosebumps rose on his skin, and he sucked in a breath. “Good.”

  She leaned in, eager for a taste of his lips, but he brought his hands to her belly, and to her breasts. “Mmm… not this time,” she said, stopping his exploration by capturing his hands. She brought them down to her hips. “You can touch here, but nowhere else.”

  He growled again, and Maddie’s heart raced a little faster. “Is that right? What happens if I break the rules?”

  “Nothing,” she smiled down at him, “but I think you’ll like it better if you don’t.”

  The boldness of her kiss had his fingers tightening on her hips, but he kept them where they were. She slid her body lower so that his cock poked through between them, hard and ready between her folds.

  Luke moaned as she rocked her pelvis against him, taking her pleasure from his body, as she was giving him his. “I won’t last long if you keep doing that,” he warned, but that was okay. She wanted him to lose control.

  She straightened again, giving him plenty of time to take in the sight of her sitting there. When his fingers started moving more restlessly at her hips, she used her own hands, sliding them up her body to her chest. She cupped her breasts, bringing them together, then rolling her nipples between her thumb and finger as he watched. When she rocked her pelvis again, so did he, giving her more contact with his shaft, making them both moan.

  “So naughty. Are you certain you want to do that?” she asked as she released her breasts.

  “I won’t do it again. Please, don’t stop,” came his throaty reply.

  She leaned forward, licking and nipping at the hard muscle covering the right side of his chest. His cock twitched beneath her. With everything she was doing, her own need climbed higher and higher. She wanted to position him and sink onto his cock, but that would have to wait. She needed to draw out the dragon. She circled her tongue around his nipple, pulled back, and blew on it, then when he moaned, flicked her tongue over it, catching the small ring there and flipping it to the other side with her tongue.

  Her fingers found the other, and she fondled it, stroking all around it before giving it a gentle tug. He loved when she played with his nipples, and she was more than happy to use them to her advantage.

  When she sat astride him again, she reached down and lifted the hem of her negligee, revealing her body to him inch by slow inch. She tossed it to the side and arched her back. His eyes were on her, and her nipples pebbled, knowing he was looking at her while she took her time loving his body. When she lifted her hands to her breasts again, he growled. Not the soft, sexy rumble from before, but a more assertive, dominant one, one that told her that he was losing the battle with the dragon. She bit her bottom lip, trying to conceal her smile.

  Arching her back, she gave both nipples a tweak, following it with a moan as pleasure flooded her. “Do you know what I want, Luke?” she asked, her head thrown back as she resumed rocking over his cock.

  “No, please, tell me,” he said, his voice gravelly.

  “I want your cock inside me so much it hurts,” she said, “but not yet. I want to feel you pounding into me until I can’t think, and can’t breathe. I want to break into a million pieces as you make me come, but not until I feel your lips on mine, your tongue on my skin, and your teeth, right here,” she said as she ran a finger along the base of her neck.

  Luke’s reaction was instant. The growl from before came back, more forceful. His hands slid up to her waist, but she didn’t try to stop him. She wanted him to take control—then to lose it to the dragon. “I want you to bite me again, Luke. Harder than before.”

  “Maddie,” he whispered, his voice hoarse, “you don’t know what you’re asking. I don’t want to scare you.”

  “Oh, I know what I’m asking. Make me yours. I want your mate’s bite. I need to feel your teeth sinking into my skin—“

  With a strength greater than any man should possess, he lifted her from his body and spun her around. One moment she was straddling him, the next she was on hands and knees before him. His hands were on her hips again, and the head of his cock nudged at her entrance.

  “Are you sure, Maddison? There’s no turning back once it’s done,” he warned, but even as he spoke, he slid into her slowly, letting her feel every hard inch of him.

  “Yes, like that,” she whispered as she shoved her hips back, taking him when he didn’t quite move fast enough.

  “Don’t be afraid, it won’t hurt you,” he told her as he thrust into her, filling her.

  “I’m not afraid. I want the dragon to come forward. I want your claim, Luke.” She pulled her hair to the side, revealing her neck.

  — — —

  Luke had been fighting an upward battle to keep the dragon at bay while she’d put herself on display for him while teasing his cock with her warm, moist flesh. But when she told him what she needed, and what she wanted, even though he knew he had lost, he had maintained some level of control. It wasn’t until she bared her neck and told him she wanted to be his, that his tenuous grip on self-restraint disappeared.

  His jaw ached, and he knew it was only a matter of time before his teeth sharpened in preparation for the bite. Her soft moans and whimpers only added fuel to his already raging desire. Each time he looked down at the delicate line of her back, the soft curve of her neck, the pulse in his cock throbbed harder until he couldn’t stop. He grabbed a handful of her hair, then wrapped his free hand around her chest, pulling her upright so that her back was against his chest. It meant shallower thrusts but gave him better access to her bo
dy.

  He brought his lips to her shoulder, tempting the dragon beyond reason, then moved to nuzzle her ear. “Is this what you want, baby?” he asked, his voice deeper, more guttural than ever. With his free hand, he skimmed her waist, then dipped lower to slide between her folds.

  He wasn’t going to last much longer, but he wanted her in the middle of her orgasm before he bit her. He circled the little nub, the rough pad of his finger slipping around and around. With each tiny stroke, she moaned louder and louder.

  He tugged on her hair, tilting her head to the side before he brought his mouth to her neck. Tracing his tongue along the length of it was both torture and sweet, sensual pleasure. Soon, he’d have his mark there, but not yet.

  Maddie jerked in his arms, as his finger made another rotation, and he thrust into her again. With each little circle, he went harder, faster. Her moans and whimpers grew louder. She tried to move, to bring her head upright again, but he wouldn’t let her.

  Little tremors pulsed around his cock, and he knew she was close. Without warning, he pulled his finger from her clit, waited for a second, then gave it a few little slaps in rapid succession. Maddie held her breath, then let out a long moan as he slid his finger around her clit again.

  “Do you like that? Want me to do it again?” he asked.

  Maddie didn’t even try to answer, nodding her head, what little she could in the position she was in, instead.

  He pulled his hand back again, and she held her breath, waiting. Five little slaps, harder than before, and she cried out. When his finger found her again, she jerked in his arms. The muscles encasing his cock trembled and tightened. He flicked her clit harder. His gums burned as the points of his teeth broke through. Already his mouth watered. He thrust faster, sliding all the way in, retreating, then slamming in again. When she cried out, her body squeezing with all the power inside her, he leaned in and sank his teeth into her flesh.

  There was a moment of silence, and then her cries grew louder, more desperate. He pounded into her as she rode the crest of her orgasm, not stopping until he emptied himself inside her, only then was he finally able to release her neck, and bring her down to the mattress. He followed her, pulling her to his chest, nuzzling the spot he’d bitten.

  “Are you okay?” he asked when he was able to speak again.

  She turned in his arms, her smile serene, and her eyes a little moist. “I’m more than okay,” she said as she snuggled into him and closed her eyes, “I’m mated.”

  He had a million questions he wanted to ask her, so many things he wanted to say, but they could wait. She was right, they were mated. He’d have all the time in the world to ask her whatever he wanted. When she woke, he would tell her about the possibility of her gaining her sight if they ever decided to have children.

  The very thought of having little dragon children in their clan had him smiling from ear to ear. His entire life had changed in a matter of days, and he was happier than he had ever been, all because of the human woman lying in his arms. First, they had to deal with the hunters taking residence in Glen Farley, then maybe they could start a family.

  “You’re thinking way too hard. Get some sleep. You’ll need your energy when I wake up again, mate,” she teased.

  “Maddie,” he said. “I love you.”

  She smiled up at him, leaning in for a soft kiss. “I love you, too.”
