Demons (Darkness #4)(22)

“Then we better settle for mixing bodies.”

Stefan kissed my neck softly, his thumb working faster. His fingers slid in and out, the sensations reverberating within me.

“Oh, god, Stefan,” I breathed, reaching up for his lips.

His fingers slid faster. His thumb pushed harder. Waves of heat washed over me. Coursed through me. Blasted out of me! I moaned as the orgasm ripped me apart, my insides clenching him as my body wracked with shudders.

His lips found mine again, deep and sensuous. He tasted of mint and spice, sweet wine and chocolate. His large body spread my legs wider to admit him. His hand lightly cupped the back of my neck in possession as his weight held me in place.

“You’re mine, forever,” he whispered.

The tip of his manhood pushed past my lips, and in. Deeper. Stretching me to accommodate him. Filling my body and honing my focus. All the way in he slid until his ends met mine. I moaned into his mouth, not wanting to break the connection of our lips. Not wanting even an inch of distance.

Out he pulled, so slowly. So controlled.

“Whatever happens, I will protect you,” he vowed, pushing back in. His hands shook, making a pact with himself. Forcing himself to push past his insecurities and face his fears. For me.

My legs tightened around him, drawing him in. Squeezing him with my interior muscles. Feeling the heat build again. Feeling my body start to wind tighter.

He sighed into my mouth.

The tables squeaked with Stefan’s slow, rhythmic thrusts. Controlled, but on the edge. Restrained, but starting to wobble.

My h*ps thrust forward, feeling his girth within my body. Feeling the friction. High off the contact.

Panting now, sweat coating our bodies, the pace increased. The pressure mounted.

“Oh god,” I breathed, squeezing my eyes shut. Tighter and tighter, my core clamped down. His manhood rubbing in just the right place. His thumb and forefinger tweaking my nipple.

“Yes, baby,” I exalted. “Yes, baby, please, yes!”

Harder he strove, crashing into me. His body working mine, so deep. Harder. Faster.

I couldn’t stop moaning. I couldn’t stop…

Electric fire soaked up my body like ink in water. My breath hitched. My world went white hot—

“Oh holy fuuu—” An explosion of pleasure tore through me. I shuddered so hard my teeth chattered.

He moaned into my neck with two last, hard thrusts.

Crack.

Without warning, the legs popped off the table and tipped us over the side. We crashed down to the ground, his big arm ripping me away from the table and rolling me on top of him. When we stopped tumbling, we lay beside pieces of what once was a very expensive tea table from some long-gone century.

“Ow,” he grunted. “Those spindly little legs hurt.”

“Well, thank ye kindly for calling me skinny.” I giggled as I traced my lips along his strong jawline.

“Uh, huh.” He winced as he fished out half a table leg and threw it to the side.

“Okay.” I kissed him, long and slow. His arms squeezed me, which became awkward when I tried to back off and I couldn’t unmash my face from his.

“Mmmkay—weat me oop.”

“Mmm?” he asked, his lips curling into a smile beneath mine.

He had my shoulders, but my lower arms were free. I used this to my advantage by punching him in the kidney. With a laugh he let go, allowing me to climb up.

“I have to go on whatever errand Jonas has for me, and you have to go back to being a badass.” I shimmied back into my undies.

Stefan turned serious in a blink. His eyes gained an edge. “The site you’re going to is old. There’s still magic there, which is why they need you, but its use is finished. It’s empty. There shouldn’t be any danger.”

“You hitched when you said ‘you.’ What don’t I know?”

Stefan rose slowly, a lethal predator in his prime.

My libido sparked. “Jeez, I’m getting just as bad as Charles.”

A grin tickled Stefan’s full lips before he went back to his professional mask. “You need to find a way to link with Toa. He is one of the most powerful whites. More, we can trust him. We know we can trust him, which is more than I can say for the other council members. With you and him together, and me to sustain you, we will be a stable powerhouse.”

“What about Dominicous? I occasionally get a soft feeling when he’s near. Like…kind of like an echo of emotion. Like what I have with you, except extremely, extremely watered down.”

“He thinks you two have a soft blood link. If you can…” Stefan’s jaw clenched.

“He’s family, baby. Or as close to a family as I have. He’s not trying to mark your territory.” I shuddered with the thought. “Gross.”

Stefan’s jaw barely relaxed. “After we get you magically linked with Toa, we can try to include Dominicous. This is an extreme amount of power we are talking about—a black, white, and two burnished golds. Not many people can control a link with so much being pumped into it.”

“But I thought you guys always had a bunch of people?”

“A group of eight was accomplished once, but it had a green, three reds, three oranges and me. We pulled it in and centralized it. You don’t pull. You struggle to keep magic out. Plus…that’s just a lot of power with all of us together.”
