that again and she might be near to drenched. Yet she had no fear that he would not find the remedy. Palming her ass in one hand, he pushed his other between them, and his callused fingers found her clit and began a slow tease.
Sparks fired through her veins with each light touch. Soon she would be so wet. And Aerax would be hungry.
“Are you restrained?” she whispered, and he groaned a denial, burying his face in her neck. “You must be. Or the wraith will be upon us and we will not even know. Tomorrow you will be unrestrained.”
She felt his nod and then his openmouthed kiss against her throat. The stone was hard and cool at her back, his strong hand gripping one side of her ass, his fingers creating magic between her thighs, drawing wetness and heat from a body spent by exhaustion and fear.
“Aerax,” she breathed, hitching her hips into his light touch.
“So hot you are, Lizzan,” he groaned into her skin. “So slick with your need.”
His fingers left her, and into the silence of her panting breath and thundering heart came the faint jingle of his armor and the whisper of linen as he freed his cock. She felt him as she had so many times before, drawing the broad head of his erection through her folds of aroused flesh. Her arms tightened around his shoulders, her body pushing closer, seeking the moment she waited for so desperately.
“Inside me,” she urged him, kissing his jaw, his neck. “Be inside me.”
Then all below began to burn and stretch. She went still, gasping into his throat as his thick cock pushed deeper and deeper until it seemed there was no end to him.
“Hold,” she whispered, and Aerax did, his big body rigid and shaking. “There seems more of you than there is room in me. Let us stay in this way for a moment.”
“We need not do more.” His voice was pure gravel. “You are breached. We might stop.”
She could not. Because finally he was inside her, though the sensation was not all that she had envisioned. Yet Aerax was. The way he held for her now, though his body shook with strain. His hot heaving breaths that said his arousal knew no pain or discomfort as hers did and his desire had not ebbed. And the steel length wedged so tight and deep inside her that she could feel the pulsing of his flesh. His unyielding, unceasing need for her was the most incredible, wonderful thing she’d ever known . . . and always he put hers first.
Her fingers twisted into his hair, and she brought his face to hers.
“Three times,” she demanded softly. “Fuck into me three times, as hard as you wish. And then we will stop for this night.”
A growl rumbled through his chest. “Are you still hurting?”
“I was never hurting. I said your cock did not fit.” Yet that had changed, too. Deeper he was even now, her body yielding to his, and no discomfort did she feel. Only fullness. “But it seems to have shrunk within me.”
A tortured laugh escaped him. “It has not.”
“Then fuck me. Three times. With full restraint.”
That was likely asking too much. And it seemed he only had the barest restraint as he held her ass in both hands now, strong fingers digging into her flesh, and the sweet roughness of his grip vanished into the sweet roughness of his heavy flesh withdrawing from hers until only the thick crown stretched her entrance.
Sparks flew behind her eyes when he shoved back in, deep, full deep. Her cry made him still again, as if fearing he’d hurt her, but she shook her head, her lips trembling against his.
“One,” she said breathlessly. “And it was so fine, Aerax. It was so fine to take you inside me again.”
His ragged groan was matched by the roughness of his hands on her ass, rhythmically squeezing and kneading her cheeks as if in desperate substitution for the rough rhythm he wanted to pound out inside her. Yet even that caused no pain, for each pull and push seemed to carry forward to the sensitive flesh stretched around his shaft, little tugs that tightened her sheath around him.
Those he must have felt, too, adding to them with a sudden grind between her thighs, as if they were still virgins in their tent and rubbing together. But now he was deep inside her and instead of sliding through her folds, he stirred his cock
