Summer of Frost (Forever Fae #3)(28)

Slowly and deftly, Drake entered me with his long fingers, thrusting them in and out. His tongue was hot and greedy, exploring my body, and on top of the friction his hand was bestowing upon me, I’d almost lost all control.

“I need to be inside you,” Drake growled.

Breathless, I sighed, “Please don’t say that, Drake. I want you too much right now.”

“Dammit, Sorcha, I can feel you getting tighter,” he breathed. “You’re going to make me lose control.”

His words and the sound of his voice was enough to make me want to orgasm. Reaching between our bodies, I trailed my fingers down his long, hard cock before surrounding it with my hand. He jerked once and let out a shaky breath. “I can’t let you have all the fun, can I?” I asked, sounding husky and animalistic.

At a hard and steady pace, I moved up and down his cock, enjoying the moans that escaped his lips. His rhythm matched mine as we both pleasured each other. Only when I felt his rigidness grow harder did I let myself give in.

“Oh … Drake!” I screamed, my back arching off the bed.

“Sorcha … Ah!”

My body jolted as the orgasm sent shock waves through every limb of my being. Drake collapsed beside me, breathing heavy and holding me tight. I snuggled into his warmth, and placed my head on his chest where his heart was beating uncontrollably. He was mine, and I was his. The day couldn’t come soon enough for us to be able to seal our bond.

“I love you, Sorcha. I know it may be soon, but in all reality we’ve been together for a while now. I can’t deny what’s in my heart any longer, and I don’t want to. You’re mine, and I’m going to make it rightfully so the moment we come back from this journey.”

“I like the sound of that, and just so you know, I fell in love with you from the very beginning. I also hated you at times, but that’s because you were more arrogant back then.”

He laughed and kissed me deeply, making my core tighten again. “I think I need a shower … a cold one,” he admitted sheepishly, looking down between his legs where his cock lay hard against his stomach.

“You are insatiable,” I moaned.

“Only for you, beautiful.”

We got out of bed and climbed in the shower together. He worked his hands all over my body, cleansing me with soap just as I did with him, both of us lingering on certain areas of our bodies. After the shower, I dressed in one of his T-shirts while he climbed into the bed naked.

“You’re killing me, Drake. How am I supposed to sleep beside you like that?” I asked, placing my hands on my hips.

He smiled. “Get used to it, beautiful. You’re going to be sleeping beside me like this for the rest of your life starting tonight. Now come over here.”

Drake held his arms out and I happily allowed myself to be folded into his body. He held me tight, breathing against my ear, until he soon relaxed his hold and fell asleep. Closing my eyes, I imagined our dream world and let myself fall into it. In that realm, nothing else mattered except us, and our desires. We made love to each other that night, over and over, until the sun came up the next day. Our journey was about to begin.





Drake and I were planning to leave as soon as possible. The longer we waited, the more time for things to fail. I was packing a light bag when Oren entered the room. “Why do you need a guardian, ai dulin? It seems you never need me.”

“Oh, Oren,” I said, turning around. I walked over to him and cupped his face in my hands. “I will always need you. You know me better than anyone, and there’s no one else that can put up with all my bullshit.”

“Then let me come with you,” he insisted.

“No!” I replied forcefully. “I’ve seen the way Calista looks without her guardian, and I don’t want that emptiness inside of me. She misses Merrick, and every time she sees you or Meliantha’s guardian, Ashur, she’s reminded of what she lost. I’m not as strong as her, Oren.”

Oren wrapped his arms around my waist and hugged me tight. We usually didn’t show a lot of physical affection, but maybe the Summer heat was melting him a bit. When he released me, he looked down at my newly changed skin. “I must say, you look stunning like this. No more tanning beds for you?” He laughed, while I scowled.

Ryder and Kalen used to give me hell when I came back burnt like a lobster from experimenting with a tanning bed one time in the mortal realm. I was red for a week, but then right back to being pale the next. It was an experience from hell, and one I’d never forgotten.

“It’s strange to think that we’re both going to be Summer Fae,” I said thoughtfully.

Oren winked and nudged me in the side. “Who says I’m going to follow you to your new court?”

“You better be!”

We both laughed, and once my bag was packed, Oren walked me down to Drake who was waiting patiently by the palace doors. After kissing Oren on the cheek, I whispered in his ear, “Please say good-bye to Sarette for me.”

He nodded. “I will. Be careful, ai dulin.”

“Always,” I replied back silently.

When we walked down to the horses I was confused. “Why are we riding horses?” I asked Drake curiously. “Why can’t we just fly?”

Drake sighed, strapped my saddle in place, and turned to face me. “I was hoping you wouldn’t ask, but since you did I’ll tell you. We don’t know what’s going to happen on this journey, but I want us to be prepared. If something was to happen to me and I couldn’t fly, we would have the horses to help us. Also, when I transform from dragon back to myself it wipes out a lot of my energy.”
