Pure need tightened his balls and made his cock rigid between her thighs. Hearing his mate’s sexual tone turned him on and had him hungry for her sheath. Tor captured her mouth in a crushing, soul-searing kiss. He cupped the back of her thighs and separated her legs. She took the hint and wrapped her legs around his hips, locking her ankles behind his knees. There was no time for foreplay. They were too filled with hunger and need.
In one solid stroke, Tor settled his cock in her heat. Deveney squealed in ecstasy as their magic combined and the water turned a brilliant shade of blue. Her inner muscles clenched, caressing his shaft in a loving hug. He was in heaven. When she rocked, setting a fast and furious pace, Tor froze.
“Deveney,” he gasped. “The baby. Shouldn’t we take this slow and easy? I don’t want to hurt you or the cub.”
Perched on his wonderful cock, she slowed her pace to a nice, sensual rhythm and clasped his face in her hands. Holding his hooded gaze with one of her own, she smiled, licked her lips in a teasing motion, then replied in as sultry a tone as she could muster, “These babies are a creation of our love.”
“Babies…” Tor stuttered.
“Yes,” she grinned. “Maven touched my belly when she arrived earlier and said we’re having twins.”
“Twins!”
Deveney captured his face in her hands and laughed as she touched her forehead to his. “You and I are having twins. We fucked hard to make them and I don’t think a good, hard fuck is going to harm them.”
She enunciated her meaning with a sudden pelvic thrust that buried him fully in her sex. Deveney sealed his lips with her mouth before he could speak and commanded a passionate kiss. Having Tor buried deep within her heat made her happy. Being Tor’s mate was better than anything she’d ever imagined her life could ever be on Earth. Every ounce of her tingled from his touch and she sensed the healing powers of his chakra combined with hers. His energy twined with hers and gave her the strength she needed to satisfy her man.
They were meant to be together forever. This made her smile as she broke their kiss and placed tender, teasing nips to his chin, neck and shoulder. Tor growled his pleasure from deep in his throat, urging her on. When she ran the tip of her tongue along the life vein in his neck, his cock grew and expanded. He roared in ecstasy.
This she liked…Tor on the edge, grappling for control as she rode him like a wild stallion.
Even though she sensed he commanded his inner beast, she couldn’t help but whisper in his ear, “Back down, bear. I want to fuck my man.”
Tor cupped her chin and met her gaze. “It’s all me, Deveney. The beast you ride is all me.”
He made sure she understood. He pushed up into her as far as he could, pulled back, then did it again and again. Her moans spurred him on, pumping long, hard, fast strokes in and out of her slick heat. Magic sizzled around them and warmed the air. Vibrant colors encased them in a bubble of pure energy. Tor increased the pace. Standing in the water, he planted his feet on the bottom of the tub and leaned back against its edge for support. His mate wanted a good, hard fuck and he wanted to give it to her.
The moment her tongue traced the vein in his neck for a second time, he was lost. Grasping her waist, he shoved into the sanctity of her heat again and again. Deveney’s nails dug into his shoulders, but he didn’t care if she drew blood. They were together. She was safe and that was all that mattered. Faster and faster, she rode him, taking him in deep, gloving his cock with her sheath in a perfect, tight fit.
On an upward motion, Tor captured one of Deveney’s plump nipples and sucked it into his mouth. Her graveled moan urged him to suckle from one to the other. He liked the erotic sounds she made, from the soft pants to the deep, sexy growls. It fueled his desire and increased his hunger for her. Caught up in the love and the magic, he pumped harder and harder into her. Over and over he caressed her sheath with his cock until she screamed his name and collapsed against his chest.
He knew she orgasmed. The tight grip of her inner muscles tugged him in deep. Tremors ran up and down his sensitive skin, coaxing him to follow her lead over the edge and into the river of satisfaction.
“Deveney,” he groaned. His seed pumped into her sex. Warmth cascaded the length of his cock as their essences combined. Nestled in her heat, he could stay there forever. When he eased from her, her whispered protest made him smile.
Even exhausted she wanted him inside her. He kissed her brow, carefully washed them both in a quick rinse of soap and water, then carried her from the tub. After wrapping them in one giant towel, he cradled her in his arms and took her to bed.
Tor laid her gently on the mattress, then slid in behind her. As he got settled, she startled him when she sat bolt upright and stared down at him. Fear sliced the air between them as he sensed her panic. The beat of her heart raced and her breathing was short and uneven. It seemed to him she’d fallen asleep momentarily to only be awakened by a nightmare.
“Deveney, what’s wrong? Are you okay?” he asked as he sat up, cupped her chin and met her frightened gaze. “Is it the babies? Do you need me to summon a healer?”
“No,” she shook her head. Tears slid down her cheeks. “I think I killed a man. I think I burned him to death. When I closed my eyes, I saw him.”
Tor gathered her into his lap and held her tight. He tried to calm her. Stroking her hair and rocking her gently, he said, “You didn’t kill him. His name was Obinu. Desperate for a mate, he stole you from me.”
She stiffened, pushing back from his chest to stare in disbelief. “But I saw him on fire and I know I did that to him.”
In as gentle a motion as he could, Tor brushed the hair from her eyes, then trailed his fingers lightly across her cheek. It obviously upset her to know she’d done this horrific feat to a man. His Deveney held phenomenal magic within her chakra, which now combined with his. Once they learned to control it, they’d be a powerful team. He sighed, then placed what he hoped was a soothing smile to his lips. Choosing his words carefully, he decided to tell her the truth, but not all of it. She didn’t need to know she’d ended any chance he ever had at reproduction. The memory of charred flesh sent a chill down his spine as he gathered his thoughts and told her what happened.
“Deveney, you did burn him, but that didn’t kill him. It only taught him a lesson about trying to mate with a female who wasn’t his.”
Her eyes widened as if the memory of what Obinu tried to do to her resurfaced. “Oh my god, you’re right. He tried to…”
Her voice trailed off and her bottom lip quivered. Tor brushed a caring thumb across her lip in an attempt to soothe her tremor. “He didn’t succeed. The magic reminded him you belonged with me, now and forever.”
Deveney smiled weakly. She followed Tor’s lead and lay back on the bed. He rested on his side, staring down at her as she lay on her back, looking up at him. Tor sensed there was one more thing she needed to know before she’d let this go.
After a few seconds passed, she asked, “What happened to him? You said I didn’t kill him. Is he alive? Is he getting medical help for his burns?”
“You didn’t kill him. But he is dead. When the Proprius Bestia attacked his palace, he tried to save you, but failed. One of the winged Proprius Bestia carried him away. When he saw the encampment of our warriors, he shifted and forced the Proprius Bestia to drop him. He fell from a tremendous height and somehow managed to survive. Because of him, I knew where to find you. He died from the internal damage caused by the fall.”
Tor twined his hand in hers, lifted her fingers to his lips and kissed them lightly. “So I didn’t kill him?” she questioned one more time.
The laugh that ripped from Tor’s throat made her smile. He shook his head. “No, my love. You did not kill him.”
A heavy sigh of relief escaped and Deveney turned onto her side and snuggled in closer to Tor. As he wrapped himself around her, she amazed him with her request. “He deserves a proper burial. Will you make that happen? He may have started off
bad, but in the end he tried to do right.”
Tor snorted a heated breath against her hair. She was right. In his own way, Obinu tried to right the wrong he’d done. He kissed her brow, snuggled her tight. “Deveney, you’ll make a perfect head female for Bjorn Palace. Your heart is in the right place and you are wise beyond your youthful years. I am glad you’re mine. We shall rule as one. I sense my world will be better because you are in it.”
Deveney shifted her legs slightly apart and he felt her hand grasp his cock. As she coaxed it back to hardness, she whispered, “I love you, Tor. I need you inside me to bring me inner peace and help my chakra heal. We are one and shall work together to fix the wrongs. I can’t promise we’ll succeed, but we will try. Now slide inside me and hold me tight. I need your love to reenergize me.”
He needed no further request. Tor eased inside her heat from behind and nestled his cock in deep. Deveney wiggled close to him and rested her head on his arm as a pillow. Her contented sigh let him know that his mate was happy.
As he held her while she slept, he knew without a doubt he loved Deveney. Pressing his lips to the hair over her ear, he whispered, “Deveney, you are my lifemate, now and forever. I love you.”
The clench of her sheath gloved around his cock let him know she heard.
