Kai waited to see what his human would do. After a few seconds, she answered, “We shouldn’t.”
He raised an eyebrow. “Does it say anywhere in your list of instructions that I can’t touch you?” He rubbed his hand under her top and back down again. “We’ll both focus better afterward.”
“For me, yes. But I can’t see how you going into a meeting with a hard-on will help things.”
Kai grinned. “Oh, tasting your sweet honey from my fingers will do for now. Not even I will risk Sid’s wrath by disobeying her orders.” He ran his hand higher and cupped her breast through her bra. He squeezed gently and a small moan escaped Jane’s mouth. “Let me make you come, Janey. It’ll make my dragon happy.”
The corner of her mouth ticked up. “And let me guess? A happy dragon means you’ll heal faster?”
“But of course.”
Jane laughed and the sound warmed both man and beast. His dragon growled, Rip off her trousers. I want to feel how hot and wet she is for us.
Not until she says yes.
His beast paced, but didn’t fight him. Deep down, even his dragon knew how important this moment was. Neither one of them would force it.
Jane traced his jagged flame tattoo on his left arm and the whispers of her touch made his dick pulse. When his human spoke, her voice was husky. “If you can think of a believable excuse to tell Bram why we’re so late meeting with him, then do it quickly.”
“Do what, my little human?”
“I’m over six feet tall. I’m not exactly little.”
He massaged her breast and Jane bit her lip. “Okay, my rather tall human, tell me what you want.”
Her eyes grew even more heated. “I want you to fuck me with your fingers.”
His dragon roared. Do it. Now.
Kai removed his hand. “Take off your trousers and underwear.”
Never taking her blue eyes from his, she unbuttoned her trousers and slowly slid them down her legs. Kicking them aside, she placed her thumbs in the waist of her underwear and Kai watched as she slowly slid them down to reveal a patch of dark hair between her long, shapely legs.
Mine.
Kai didn’t know if it was him or his dragon who’d said it, but he didn’t care.
Meeting Jane’s eyes, he ordered, “Come here.”
~~~
Jane’s heart thudded in her chest. Part of her knew she shouldn’t be doing this, but Kai had been right. Nothing in Sid’s list had said he couldn’t touch her. Moving his fingers and hand most definitely wouldn’t count as mildly intense physical activity.
And to be honest, she could do with some release. She needed a clear head to face Bram and Rafe.
Kai’s deep voice ordered, “Come here,” and for once, she didn’t feel like challenging him.
Each step she took toward her dragonman only made her wetter with his flashing pupils and heated looks. She’d never thought she’d be with a dragon-shifter because of her career. But since her reputation was already damaged and Jane had plans of her own, she wanted her dragonman more than anything she’d wanted in a while.
And not just because they worked well together as a team, which would be useful for her plans to succeed. Kai was the only man who could make her heart race and breasts tingle with little more than a glance. With a little more time, she might even be able to draw out the rest of his humor. She loved it when he laughed.
Reaching Kai, she placed a hand on his cheek and stroked his skin. “Make it count, dragonman. If you can’t make me come, then I may have to rethink this whole staying with you thing.”
Kai growled and placed a possessive hand on her arse. “You’re staying with me.”
She lowered her eyelids to half-mast and whispered, “Then convince me why I should.”
Instead of words, Kai moved his hand from her arse to her hip and finally to her lower abdomen. As he strummed his thumb an inch above her clit, Jane moved her hand from his face to his good shoulder. Digging in her nails, she ordered, “Stop teasing me.”
He stilled his thumb. “I told you payback was coming.”
She opened her mouth, but he ran a finger between her folds and his touch sent a rush of heat through her body. Her pussy pulsed with each stroke of his finger. Without thinking, she widened her stance to allow him better access.
Kai chuckled. “Impatient, aren’t you?”
She growled. “We have an appointment—”
He plunged his finger into her and she forgot what she was going to say.
Kai retreated and thrust again. As he continued in a steady pace, it became harder for her to stand. If not for her grip on his shoulder, she would fall over.
Her dragonman suddenly ceased his movements and she dug in her nails. “Don’t stop.”
His gaze was on her breasts, which were in front of his face. “I want to taste your pretty nipples first. Give me one.”
As he licked his lips, her breasts grew heavier. In any other situation, she would tell him not to order her around. But in the moment, she wanted nothing more than to feel his wet mouth around her sensitive flesh.
Using her free hand, Jane bunched her shirt under her chin and held it while she tugged her bra over her breasts. In the next breath, Kai sucked one deep into his mouth and twirled her bud with his tongue. She moaned and Kai moved his fingers inside her pussy again. Between him nibbling her nipple and fucking her with his finger, her body wanted more, so Jane started to move in time with Kai.
The vibrations of Kai’s growl around her nipple shot straight between her legs. In the next second, Kai released her nipple with a pop. His pupils were slits as he barked, “Kiss me. Now.”
Jane kissed him without hesitation and threaded her fingers through his hair. His taste made her want to do much more than stand and let him fuck her with his fingers. She wanted to feel his long, hard cock moving inside of her.
But as her dragonman moved inside her again, adding a second finger, Jane moaned. The man had found her G-spot.
Slowing his movements, Kai strummed her clit and her knees nearly buckled. She loved the friction of his rough skin against her bundle of nerves. Yet each pass turned her bones a fraction more into jelly.
When he started rubbing her nub in slow circles, she whispered, “Please, Kai. I’m close.”
He stilled his thumb and Jane cried out. “What are you doing?”
Rather than respond with words, Kai spread her legs wider and Jane had no choice but to sit on his thighs with her legs open.
Kai broke the kiss and stared into her eyes. “Don’t look away. I want to see you come.”
As the pulse between her legs increased, Jane merely nodded.
Kai’s eyes flashed again and he growled before saying, “Good.”
He stopped finger-fucking her pussy and concentrated on her clit with his thumb.
Jane dug her nails into his good shoulder and Kai’s circular motions grew faster and rougher.
Somehow, the man already knew how she liked it.
Then he pinched her clit and Jane closed her eyes as she lost all coherent thought. If he would just pinch her one more time, she’d finally have her release.
Kai stilled. “Look at me.”
Close to whimpering, Jane did as he said. The second her eyes met his, he lightly squeezed and twisted her hard nub.
Jane cried out as spots dotted her eyes and pleasure coursed through her body. Each spasm made it harder to keep her eyes open, but she didn’t want Kai to stop rubbing her clit. The combination of her orgasm and his touch was pleasure to the point of almost pain.
Once the last spasm wracked her body, Kai smiled, removed his fingers, and licked them slowly.
Despite her recent orgasm, the sight made Jane’s pussy pulse again in anticipation.
After a good twenty seconds and never breaking eye contact, Kai removed his fingers and licked his lips. Combined with the genuine hunger in his eyes, Jane desperately wanted to feel his tongue and mouth between her legs.
&nbs
p; Leaning over, Kai kissed her. He took his time exploring her mouth and nibbling her lips. Each slow stroke made her hunger for more than his tongue.
When he finally pulled away, he whispered, “You’re staying with me.”
She tilted her head and tapped her chin. “I don’t know. I might need another orgasm or two to convince me.”
Moving his good hand to her back, he pressed her close against him until she could feel his hard cock between her legs. “If Sid clears me today, then I’ll be fucking you until you can’t walk straight. You’re mine.”
She laced her hands behind his neck. Dancing her fingers against the edge of his short hair, she moved her hips and rubbed against her dragonman’s dick.
Kai hissed. “You’re killing me, Janey.”
Jane smiled. “If you’re cleared today, then I have a few tricks of my own. I might wear you out before you can fuck me hard enough to mete out your threat.”
“Bring it on, human. In this, I will win.”
“We’ll see, dragonman, we’ll see.” As much as she wanted to stay on Kai’s lap all day, reason was returning to her brain. Bram was probably wondering where they were.
Jane tried to stand up, but Kai tightened his hold on her. She frowned. “We’re already late. We can’t keep Bram waiting forever.”
“Bram will understand.”
She raised an eyebrow. “The other visitor due today won’t. Trust me on that.”
Tracing circles on her back, he murmured, “I don’t care if it’s the bloody Prime Minister. They can wait.”
His words were sweet and she nearly leaned down to kiss him. But then the thought of explaining to her older brother that she was late because she’d been fooling around with Kai gave her the strength to resist. She shook her head. “No. Let me up so I can freshen up and we can go. Your clan needs you, Kai. The meeting with Bram is important.”
He searched her eyes for a second before he released his hand. “If you say it is, then I’ll trust you.”
She knew his words signaled an important shift in their relationship, but she pushed it aside. She would sort out everything later, after dealing with her brother.
Getting Rafe up to Stonefire had been hard enough; it’d taken nearly an hour to convince him to come. She couldn’t imagine what it was going to take for him to agree to help the dragon-shifters.
There was only one way to find out. She needed to get Kai and herself to Bram’s cottage.
Standing up, Jane took a second to find her balance. When she could finally stand, amusement danced in Kai’s eyes as he smirked.
She placed a hand on her hip. “Don’t look so happy with yourself. I’m only holding back because of your bloody shoulder.”
“Go ahead and say that, Janey. I’ll make you beg next time and you won’t be able to use my injury as an excuse.”
She glared, and Kai chuckled as he stood up.
Deciding that Kai needed a little payback, she zeroed in on his cock straining against his boxers. His laughter died instantly and Kai’s voice interrupted her visions of taking his hard length into her hands. “Stop it, Jane. Now you’re just torturing me.”
She grinned and met his eyes. “Then try not to get shot again.”
“Then try not to be daft and go after dragon hunters by yourself again.”
“We’ll see about that.” Jane motioned toward her doorway. “Now, go get dressed. I’ll meet you downstairs in five minutes.”
Kai closed the space between them and placed a gentle kiss on her lips. “I’ll be ready before you.”
“Right, then it’s on, dragonman.”
Kai winked. “I think we should start keeping score. If I reach twenty points ahead, then I get to tie you to my bed and do whatever I want with you.”
Heat spread across her body as she visualized Kai caressing her body and making her come over and over again with both his tongue and his cock.
Clearing her throat, she replied, “Until I decide what I get if I get twenty points ahead, the deal is off.”
He nuzzled her cheek. “Then think of something quickly, Jane, because I want to earn my prize.”
She pushed against his chest and motioned toward the door again. “Go get ready. We can talk about my prize later. Consider it an incentive.”
“Right, so I can spend the whole meeting thinking of what you want to do with me.”
She gave a light shove. “Go.”
With a grin, Kai exited.
The room was empty without her dragonman. But as much as she wanted to spend all day with him, she needed to fix her screw up back in Tyneside. That meant garnering her brother’s help. Without help from humans such as Rafe, Stonefire would have to spend who knew how many more months searching for the hunters again.
Jane righted her top and headed for the bathroom. Despite the uncertainty of the future and the upcoming meeting with her brother, Jane couldn’t stop smiling as she cleaned up.
Chapter Three
Nikki stood in the security room at one of Stonefire’s side entrances and tried not to fidget. Bram had trusted her with meeting Rafe Hartley and bringing the human male to one of the remote, abandoned cottages on Stonefire’s lands undetected.
She didn’t have a choice, of course, but she’d said yes. After all, it’d been almost four years since she’d last talked with the human.
True, she’d kept abreast of his accomplishments and had glimpsed him a few times over the years whilst serving in Afghanistan. But it wasn’t quite the same.
Her dragon chimed in. It may have been four years, but I still think you should kiss him.
Why? He’s attractive, yes, but female dragon-shifters can rarely tell a true mate until they kiss a male. I don’t understand your persistence.
Her beast huffed. I’m curious, is all. None of the other human soldiers ever caught your eye.
We can’t kiss any humans, dragon. You know that, or we could end up in prison. How will we protect our clan then?
Find a way. The males here only see us as the first child of a sacrifice or as a friend. A human male won’t care about us being the child of a sacrifice, especially if we don’t tell him.
Nikki mentally sighed at her beast. If only it were that easy.
Her conversation was interrupted by Sebastian, the guard manning the side entrance gate for the morning. “Nikki, he’s here.”
Nikki glanced at the monitor, which broadcast the live feed of the sole incoming road to the rear entrance. A dark economy car drove toward them, the same color as what Rafe had reported the night before. Nikki kept her eyes glued to the screen as she ordered, “Wait until he steps out of the car before removing the camouflage barrier.”
Seb’s voice was dry as he replied, “You’re senior to me by a few months, Nikola Gray. The formality seems a bit much.”
She raised an eyebrow and met Seb’s near-black eyes. “I’m still senior, Sebastian Randall. Do you really want to let a human point out our lack of control or order?”
“Fine. But if you order me to fly laps to impress the human male, I’ll just tell you to sod off.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Nikki demanded.
“We served together in Afghanistan. Whenever Hartley was nearby, you hid. I think you fancied him.”
Maybe Nikki hadn’t been as smooth or secretive as she’d thought she’d been back then.
Still, she was several years older, with more experience. Schooling her face into the expressionless mask she’d learned from Kai, she shrugged. “Fancied, as in past tense. Right now, he’s a stranger about to set foot on our land. Our job is to ensure he’s not a threat.”
Seb waved a hand. “Fine.” He paused deliberately and then added, “Ms. Gray.”
Nikki rolled her eyes and then watched as the car came to a stop. Rafe Hartley stepped out of the car and studied the trees in front of him.
The video was low quality, but the rugged features of his face, dark hair, and broad shoulders hadn’t changed. Just lookin
g at him made her dragon roar inside her head. While he’s here, kiss him. I don’t want to wonder what if any more, especially since you won’t kiss any males on our land.
We’re young. We have time.
You use that as an excuse. Young dragons need sex and kisses. Find me some.
Shush. We need to protect the clan.
Grumbling, her dragon retreated to the back of Nikki’s mind. The clan’s safety was one of the few things that would quiet her beast.
Rafe crossed his arms over his chest and looked up. After a few seconds, he stared directly into the camera and didn’t blink.
Clever human.
After the attack on Lochguard’s rear entrance last month, Kai had installed the tree and shrub dummy wall. But a trained soldier could still spot something was off. Nikki just hoped the Dragon Knights and dragon hunters weren’t as clever.
She looked to Seb. “Let him in.”
Seb thankfully kept his mouth shut and did what she asked.
Nikki went to the door, gripped the knob, and took a deep breath. She could face Rafe and be professional. She couldn’t let Kai or Bram down.
Her dragon growled and Nikki quickly said, I will find someone else once this mission is complete. Now, will you behave?
Her beast retreated to the back of her mind and Nikki took that as a yes.
Turning the knob, she opened the door and walked up to the bars separating her and Rafe. Looking up to meet his green-eyed gaze, Nikki used every bit of training she had to keep her face neutral. She didn’t have time to notice the sexy planes of his face. Or, how his dark, wavy hair was a little longer than regulation length and fell across his brow, making his light green eyes stand out.
In the back of her mind, her dragon laughed. Who are you lying to?
Ignoring her beast, she nodded at Rafe. Even though she knew full well who he was, it was best to play it as this being the first time they’d met. She asked the secret question. “Who was Mr. Tiggles?”
“My sister’s ridiculous cat.” She arched an eyebrow and Rafe shrugged. “You have images of me already, I’m sure. I’m doing my sister a favor by being here. So either open up or I go take a real holiday.”
