Star Cursed (Zodiac Wolves #2)(68)

“If you keep looking at me like that, I might not be able to hold myself back,” he said.

He tilted my chin up and leaned down to kiss me once more, and I wrapped my arms around his neck, needing to touch him to make sure he really was here, out on this lake with me. Kaden growled into my mouth as he wrapped his arms around my waist and tipped me over, lowering us both to the ground. The jolt of my back hitting the grass was enough to displace Kaden’s lips from mine, but when I went to kiss him again, he pushed me back down with a firm hand.

I spread my legs, letting him settle in between them, pressing close enough that I felt the heat of his cock against my inner thighs. He looked down at me, the hunger in his eyes echoing the deep, pulsing thrum that had started up in my core.

The hand that had pushed me down traced along the front of my body, moving across my breasts, making my nipples hard. Each finger left a trail of fire in its wake, as he moved down, down, down.

“You’re so responsive,” he murmured, fingers just inches from where I actually wanted them.

I shifted my hips, trying to chase that feeling, to get him to touch me where I needed him.

Kaden’s eyes flicked up to mine, a mischievous glint present even in the stark light. "Tell me what you need."

“Fuck me, Kaden.” He was so close, so willing to give, and yet here he was, teasing me.

“I like it when you ask nicely,” Kaden said. “You have such a mouth on you, it’s hard to remember you can be reduced to this as well.”

His fingers slipped inside of me, making me gasp. I was so wet that there wasn’t the slightest bit of resistance. My hips bucked, trying to get more friction, and he pushed me down with his other hand, holding me in place as he slowly pistoned his fingers in and out in a steady rhythm. I moaned as pleasure began flickering inside of me, but I wanted more, I wanted everything Kaden had to offer.

Kaden lowered his head between my thighs and slid his tongue along my clit, and the sudden burst of pleasure made my hips buck up to meet his mouth. He began fucking me with his fingers in earnest, while he sucked on my clit, and I shuddered at the feelings rushing through me. I wanted him inside of me, but I wasn’t going to object to this. He was incredibly talented with his hands and tongue, that much I knew already. The pleasure built steadily, an ache that bloomed out in a wave of heat throughout my whole body. Kaden hummed against my clit in approval as he continued fucking me with his fingers. He enjoyed pleasuring me, and that made it so much hotter.

The pressure built, and the closer I got, the more he upped the pace. I was almost screaming by the time my release came, my fingers digging so hard in Kaden’s biceps I had no doubt I was breaking the skin. He didn’t stop, fingers working me through my orgasm, tongue stroking my clit, bringing wave upon wave of pleasure.

Then Kaden lifted himself up, while my body still trembled from what he'd just one to me. “Now I think you’re ready for me to fuck you."

"Yes, please." Even though I’d just come, my pussy clenched from the anticipation.

Kaden kneeled above me like a dark god, stroking his cock slowly, while he looked down at me like I belonged to him, and no one else. “I’m going to claim you right here, under the stars and the moon for all the gods to see,” he said, his voice edging into a growl. “You’re mine, now and forever.”

Mine. I shivered at the word as it wrapped around my heart.

Kaden lowered himself to me, and with one smooth stroke, he filled me completely. His hands grabbed my wrists and yanked them up, holding me down as he began to thrust into me. I couldn't move at all, completely at his mercy as he pinned me down and claimed me, over and over.

“I’m yours,” I whispered. “Any way you want me.”

Kaden growled, and on the next downstroke, his mouth found mine and he plunged his tongue between my lips. I could feel Kaden’s possessiveness with his kiss and with the way his cock pulsed inside me.

He pulled back suddenly and lifted my legs up over his shoulders, changing the angle so he hit me even deeper. I gasped as he entered me again, feeling impossibly stretched and full.

“Mine,” he growled as he pounded into me, pushing me into the dirt. “Say it. Say it again.”

“I’m yours,” I cried out. I tried to say more, to give voice to the feeling that was swelling up inside of me alongside the pleasure, but all I could do was repeat the word over and over again, the pressure growing at an almost dizzying rate. Kaden's fingers pinched my clit, and then all I could do was scream out my release. Kaden’s perfectly timed thrusts lost their rhythm as I clenched around him, coming harder than I had the first time, dragging him along with me over the edge.

When his cock stopped pulsing, he lowered my legs and draped himself over me, pressing his nose into my neck and inhaling deeply. "Mate," Kaden said, his voice feral.

"Mate," I whispered back.

He cupped my cheek, the gentle touch a sharp contrast to the pleasure he’d just given me. I pushed my head into his hand and closed my eyes. We were really here, together, and nothing else mattered in the moment.

Tomorrow we’d have more work to do, and I knew that the path ahead of us didn’t have an easy route. For now, I was content to doze, nestled against Kaden’s side and breathing in his scent, knowing we were going to do it all together.

As mates.
