I Married A Dragon (Prime Mating Agency)(45)

I smiled and claimed her lips in a possessive kiss. Her passionate response confirmed what I knew in my hearts. She was mine.





Chapter 13





Kaida





Sitting at the kitchen table in my oversized t-shirt and bikini bottom, I pored over the files Tedrick had sent me regarding various shadow portal incidents. It boggled my mind that the UPO had managed to keep a lid on some of the gruesomely tragic instances that had occurred. While I understood why they would want to keep this hush-hush, it made me wonder what other terrible secrets they were keeping from the galactic community.

As much as I wished our leaders could show more transparency, I’d been an Enforcer long enough to know how too much knowledge led to panic and unrest. If tomorrow people found out that a random portal could open out of the blue in their backyard, and that nightmarish creatures could pour out of it to decimate their loved ones, things would get messy very quickly. Those who would take an angel dive into the paranoia rabbit hole would prove problematic. But it was the opportunists that worried me the most. If the news spread, shady individuals would come out of the woodwork to join the race to conquer portals.

As if summoned by that thought, the muted thunderclap of a portal opening had me jerking my head up from my laptop. Through the large patio doors, I saw Cedros emerge from the black vortex. My heart fluttered, and a smile immediately settled on my face. It still baffled me how quickly I’d developed a major crush on the alien that I got to call my husband.

Cedros was sweet, funny, and so easy to be around. No one had ever gone so much out of their way to please me. And it wasn’t even forced. My dragon genuinely loved taking care of me and making me happy. Every time I smiled, whatever the reason, he smiled too—glowed even—as if this simple display of my joyful state echoed into him. Cedros wasn’t an Empath, yet you’d think he was merely by the way he responded to my emotions.

I jumped out of my chair, quickly ridding myself of my oversized t-shirt to go greet him. Aside from the fact that I no longer minded strutting about naked in his presence, I’d grown quite addicted to the feel of his scales and hard body against my bare skin. I could already hear the rumbling purr he would make, and how his scales would gently scrape my neck and shoulder line. My toes curled in anticipation as I hurried to the patio doors.

They parted before him, and he opened his arms wide for me. His glowing smile, the tenderness filled with happiness in his eyes, as he gazed upon me, turned me upside down. Cedros always looked at me as if I were the most wonderful treasure in the universe. I had never felt so wanted and loved—not to say adored—ever before in my life. Trinit’s words about how Cedros would fall in love with me replayed in my head as I threw myself into his arms. I didn’t doubt for a minute that he was indeed well on his way there.

“My Kaida,” he whispered, picking up me before rubbing his face all over mine.

I wrapped my legs around his waist, my hands sinking into his hair, while his settled on my bum to hold me up. Right on cue, he started purring while his scales tickled my neck. I giggled, which made him chuckle, too. He lifted his head to look at me, a world of affection brimming in his fiery eyes. He leaned forward and claimed my mouth. I gladly responded to his kiss, my lips parting in order to deepen it.

I would never tire of the roughness of his tongue as it tangled with mine. Every time, it reminded me how it had felt between my thighs four days ago. Things had definitely changed between us since that moment. Although we hadn’t repeated that, we now showered together, regularly kissed like lovers, and indulged in the occasional heavy petting. It was only a matter of days before we took things to the next level.

One thing was certain: Cedros would wait for me to give a clear signal to push things further. Like most males, I could tell that he was constantly horny. And yet, he never made a move unless I gave him an undisputable sign that I was in the mood, or if the undeniable scent of my arousal tipped him off I was itching for a little something.

It had troubled me at first, considering Cedros had constantly been on my ass about openly expressing my desires. However, further talks with Trinit during our morning trainings had enlightened me. As Ejayas were sworn to do everything in their power to please their Shadow Lords, the latter avoided putting them on the spot with certain things, such as sex. Unless they clearly believed she might be interested, they wouldn’t put her in a position where she would feel obligated to consent, or feel horrible for refusing.

I already knew that there was a definite consent from me coming his way. However, I liked this slow building of the sexual tension between us. It would make it even more enjoyable once we went the whole nine yards.

Assuming that massive cock of his doesn’t split me in half.

His hand roaming over my back had a few shivers coursing through me. I softly moaned, wanting more. To my chagrin, instead of growing bolder, Cedros broke the kiss.

“Why do you insist on wearing that tiny piece of fabric?” he asked softly, his voice devoid of condemnation but filled with confusion as he pulled on the small string of my bikini.

I glanced between us at the black bikini bottom I hadn’t removed after ditching my t-shirt, then looked back up at Cedros.

“Because I’m not comfortable sitting my bare butt and cooch down on every surface in this house,” I said in a mocking tone.

“Why not?” he asked with genuine curiosity.
