Diamond (Rare Gems #2)(33)



“What do you really think of the house?” Diamond looked around this room. A little girl’s room, she’d bet. Even without the personal things, there were enough small touches to show that a girl had used this one.

“What would we do with it? I mean, it’s lovely…no, it’s beautiful, and I love it, but it’s really large. Bigger than I think we’d need for entertaining.” Thad didn’t move from his position at the door, so she sat on the bed to continue. “We’re a couple who are together because of fate. Not because we love each other, not even because we like one another. We’re just…here.”

“Do you want to fall in love with me?” His voice was soft and soothing over her. When she didn’t answer, she watched him walk toward her in a smooth, almost wolf-like move. Her body temperature skyrocketed, and he paused.

“Can you feel that?” He nodded. “It’s my wolf. She’s not as shy as I’d be if I knew how to be seductive.”

“You think you’re not seductive? Christ, baby, I only have to think of you and I’m hard.” He rubbed his hand down his cock. “I’ve been hard since I saw you when we pulled up, even before that actually. And I was trying to think of a way to get you bent over anything that could hold up to the pounding I wanted to give you when Robert showed up.”

He was nearly to her when she felt her wolf skim along her skin. She wanted to mark her mate too, but Diamond wasn’t sure Thad would want that. Fingers danced softly along her skin at her throat, and she moaned when he kissed her.

“I want you right now.” Nodding, she let him lay her back on the bed. “I sent Robert outside so that we could explore the house on our own. Do you think you can wait long enough for us to go to where the master suite is? I have plans for your delectable body.”

When his body covered hers for a few seconds, she felt every nerve ending come to life. As he lifted from her, she reached for him to pull him back when she suddenly found herself on her feet.

“It’s at the end of the hall and to your right. Go now before I tear your clothes from you and you’re left standing here naked.” She took off toward the door. “Be naked when I get there too.”

Her heart was pounding by the time she found the room. Diamond nearly fell over when she saw how big the bed was and stopped to stare. But then she heard Thad coming down the hall and tore her clothing off and tossed them everywhere to get to where he’d told her. She was just lying on the bare mattress when he stepped in the room.

“I wish I had time to make you needy, but I’ve wanted to be deep inside of you for days.” She lay back when he stood over her. “Spread your legs for me.”

She did what he asked without hesitation. He dropped before her and opened her wider with his finger, and she felt her juices flow. When he hummed, she knew that he could see her fully. Thad licked her from gate to clit. She cried out, the feel of his tongue so intimately against her making her want more.

“Do you want me to f*ck you or eat you?” Christ, she was on fire for either. “I can’t do both because I have a feeling that Robert will come looking for us if I do.”

“Please, f*ck me.” He stood up and opened his pants. Reaching for him, he rocked into her hand as she pulled him to her mouth. The pearl of cum on the tip of his thick head had her sucking hard for more.

“Christ, you’re going to make me come down your throat and I need to f*ck you.” He continued to rock into her mouth as she cupped his balls. “Diamond, I’m going to make you pay for this.”

Diamond didn’t care. She loved the feel of him in her mouth, and when he cupped the back of her head and held her to him, she moaned. The harder he rocked the more she wanted to have him come this way. When his fingers tightened painfully in her hair, she nearly let him go. His strangled cry was all the warning she got before she tasted him.

Dizziness swamped her as he filled her. She couldn’t breathe well, but even that didn’t bother her. As he pulled away from her, she growled low, but he rolled her over to her belly before she could beg him for more.

The growled “on your hands” had her scrambling to do as he bid. By the time she’d figured out what he’d wanted, Thad had pulled her up so that she leaned over the bed. His cock slammed into her so quickly that it took her breath away.

“I should make you suffer and not let you come. But I need to…Christ. The need to bite you is making me insane with need.” She had the same need, to mark him as her own. When his mouth nipped at her shoulder, she arched up beneath him to give him just what he wanted. As soon as he started to move in and out of her with a speed that had her wolf snarl at him, she felt his mouth suck hard at her flesh.

“Lick it. Lick where you want to bite me.” His tongue moving over her skin had her shiver. “When you bite, do it quick and hard, don’t think about anything but tasting me, tasting my blood.”

As soon as he tore into her, she buried her face in the mattress and screamed. Her climax tore through her like a tornado until she was rising for another and another. As her body continued to come, she felt the room dim and her body float when she felt him lick the wound he’d created closed. Her final thoughts were he’d been able to seal the wounds when he’d only been human.
