bounce and that fire in her eyes blaze hotter. It seared him as he rolled his hips, driving into her, taking her as hard as she was taking him, losing control and becoming a slave to the need that surged through him.
Her sweet moans of pleasure drove him, had him guiding her with one hand and planting the other against her right breast. He thumbed her nipple and palmed her breast, growled as she moved faster, taking him now. Unable to hold back the need to touch her, to feel her climax, he dropped his hand from her hip and brushed his fingers over her sensitive flesh between her legs.
Calindria threw her head back and cried out, her body clenching and unclenching, milking him as her movements faltered.
Thanatos gathered her to him on a low growl, pinned her to his chest and kissed her hard as her legs fell open. He dug the heels of his feet into the mattress and thrust into her, each wild pump of his cock into her slick quivering body shoving him closer to the edge. Panic loomed at the back of his mind and he fought it, opened his eyes and stared into Calindria’s. It was his beautiful goddess with him. His love.
His forever.
Release hit him in a blinding rush that tore a bellow from him and a sweet cry of bliss from Calindria as she joined him, as her body flexed and trembled around his, demanding his seed as it burst from him.
He shook all over from the force of it, from the relief that swept through him on the heels of it as Calindria sank against him and kissed him, gently bringing him down.
Thanatos clung to her, breathing hard, astonished and awed by how good it had felt. He felt as one with her as he held her on him, as he continued to pulse inside her, as her breathless little sighs teased his ears.
He had never felt so connected to anyone as he did to Calindria in that moment.
He eased her back and brushed his hands across her damp cheeks and brow, sweeping the rogue strands of her golden hair out of her face so he could drink his fill of it. Her smile undid him all over again, her sated look only adding to his pleasure as he gazed at her.
“Gods, I love you.”
Her eyes lit up. “I love you too.”
He framed her face with his palms.
His perfect match.
His beautiful goddess of death.
His.
And gods help anyone who tried to take her from him.
A feral and possessive snarl came from deep within him and her smile turned wicked and a little bit amused. Thanatos yanked her down to him, rolled on top of her and kissed her, wiping that smile from her face as he claimed her lips.
Claimed all of her.
Again and again.
And again.
