Chosen Destiny Page 14

  “I’m going to get you, dragon.” She swam close and tried to push him underwater.

  He laughed managing to keep his head above water. “You said we needed to talk first and you were getting a little involved. I don’t want you to say I deliberately distracted you.”

  She groaned and rolled her eyes. “After you start something, now you want to talk.”

  Samiel saw Jaeson smiling at him. He could tell Jaeson approved of his teasing. Samiel was still a little unsure about how far he’d be able to go, but he’d do whatever he could to make her happy.

  “Then talk, Meagan. There are things I want to do before we eat and if you keep delaying, we won’t even get through with our bath before the food is ready.” Jaeson swam close and stroked his fingers over the back of her neck.

  She sighed and moved back from them. “All right, but no touching. I will get distracted if you start touching me.”

  Samiel smiled. Satisfaction and the distinct urge to make her lose every thought in her mind slammed through him. He knew she hadn’t meant them as a compliment, but he took them that way. If they could, he’d like to spend days doing nothing but distracting her and making love to her. Drops of water clung to her shoulders and her hair plastered to her head and back, but she was beautiful. Her creamy brown skin tempted him to taste and explore.

  “No touching, but you can’t draw this out deliberately,” Jaeson said with a smile.

  “I need to know what’s happening just as much as you two do. Today was far from the first time that you had information and didn’t even think about telling me.” She looked from one man to the other. “At least not until I asked.”

  “We’ll try to remember to tell you what we’ve done.” Jaeson took a stroke toward her, but she moved back.

  Samiel had known it wasn’t going to be that easy. Jaeson should have waited. Her eyes narrowed in suspicion. It was going to take more than just a quick agreement to satisfy her tonight. Now it would probably take even longer to convince her that they would keep her informed.

  “I’m not just complaining or whining. I need to know what you’re doing. If I had kept you entirely unaware of what was happening we’d probably still be arguing and the generator would still be at the coven. You wouldn’t have budged.” She swam to the edge of the pool and faced them.

  Samiel could tell she was irritated. If she was standing she’d probably have her hands on her hips. He admitted that she did have reason. He would have demanded she tell them before they went anywhere. While it hadn’t been intentional, he would try to remember to tell her what they planned.

  “I know you’re not complaining and you’re right. I wasn’t going to let you lead me into a situation blind.” Samiel stayed where he was. He wanted to swim over to her and take her into his arms, but he knew there was still more she needed to say.

  “I want to learn to work with you two, but you need to listen to me. Sometimes I feel like you just humor me and don’t really hear me. I want to be part of the team, not just to the side in a battle.” She bit her lip looking so uncertain he wanted to kick himself. He didn’t want her to feel that way. She should be confident of her place at their side.

  “I know we’ve had some problems with our protectiveness during battle. We are working on it,” Jaeson said. “If you’ll think about the last battle you’ll realize that we have learned a little.”

  She nodded. “I did notice that you had relaxed.”

  “Good. We’ll keep working at it because this isn’t a temporary thing. We are bound together.” Samiel stroked forward and hooked an arm around her. “Are we finished?”

  She relaxed in his arms. Her leg slid against his. He let his hand fall to her hip but didn’t pull her tight against him. He wanted to do it. His cock was hard and he ached to thrust deep into her. But he wanted to make her happy even more.

  “We’re finished. Do you have something you want to do?” Her hands flattened against his chest and slid up over his chest.

  “I have something I want to do.” He laughed and cupped his hands under her buttocks, pulling her hips against his.

  Her thighs widened without any urging. Her soft body pressed against his. One of her arms hooked around his shoulders and she kissed him, just a soft brush of her lips. By Grimlan, she was such a tease. He nipped at her lips before claiming them. She moaned against his lips then kissed him hungrily. Her response nearly sent him right out of his mind. He latched onto the edge of the pool and held on to keep them both above the water. Her fingers stroked through his hair. He could feel a rumbling growl working its way up his throat. He wouldn’t be surprised if the woman had him purring soon. He pulled back, determined to get them to a dry surface so they wouldn’t be in danger of drowning. He levered himself out of the pool. As he pulled her out, she began looking around the room.

  “Where’s Jaeson?” She frowned over at him as he set her on the side of the pool. She rose to her feet on the cool stone floor.

  “He’s taking care of the food right now.” Samiel waved his hand and created a cozy nest of pillows in the corner of the room.

  “Why?” She didn’t move when he tugged her toward the corner.

  “Because we need to learn to work with each other and there are still a few things we each need to work on with you. We don’t need to complicate it any more than it already is.” He cupped his hand over her cheek before tugging at her hand again.

  She narrowed her eyes and him and leaned back, against his pulling. “And you two decided this without even talking to me?”

  “Jaeson suggested it and I agreed.” Samiel shrugged. He wanted to be certain that he could give her what she needed.

  “Neither of you thought that maybe it might help for both of you to be here, making love to me. I know you’d trust Jaeson to make sure you didn’t hurt me.” She twisted her arm and tapped her foot.

  Her lower lip jutted slightly. He wanted to take it between his teeth and nibble. She looked as if she was all set to get stubborn about this. He knew her passion hadn’t cooled. It was just upset and sheer female perversity behind her hesitation. He hooked an arm around her waist and scooped her off her feet before heading toward the pile of pillows. She stiffened and drew in a sharp breath. He expected some kind of angry remark, but she simply stared at him. After a few moments, her arm curved around his shoulder. She slowly relaxed against him.

  “What am I going to do with you, Samiel?” She shook her head and smiled at him. “You do like to take over.”

  “You’re going to teach me to play again.” He swept his thumb back and forth across her lips. “Because I want to give you everything you need.”

  “Someday soon you’re going to have to tell me about what that witch did, but I think we should begin your lessons right now.” She hugged him.

  Her breath puffed over his neck, tickling. Her arms felt so good around him. His arms tightened just briefly before he lowered her feet onto the pillows. She tugged him to the center of the group of pillows.

  “Lie down.” Her hands pressed against his chest.

  “You have something in mind already?” He did as she directed, sprawling on the large, comfortable pillows. His mind was full of ideas, but this time he’d let her take the lead.

  “I do.” She knelt beside him. “And a way to make love to you that might help too.”

  “No teasing me until I lose control.” He put his hand on her hip.

  She laughed. “That would be fun, but it’s not what I have in mind this time. We’re going to play with each other.”

  His hand moved to cup her pussy. He liked her idea. His fingers pressed up between the plump lips and stroked over her clit. She was wet and slick, but it wasn’t just water moistening his fingers. Her hips jerked forward into his hand.

  “You’re a little bit ahead of the game. We’re starting small, dragon.” She nipped at his shoulder.

  He knew the power inside her had to be fairly high, but she seemed to be in control. The sweet scent of
her arousal was a heady perfume in the air, enticing and inciting his desire. She grabbed his wrist and pulled his hand away from her pussy. He laughed, letting her put his hand at his side.

  “So what should I be doing?” he asked.

  She peered at him through her lashes. She looked mischievous and hungry. “Use your lips and teeth first and don’t go in for the kill immediately, Samiel.”

  “Dragons are predators. You expect me to play by your rules?” He trailed his finger down the middle of her chest.

  “No rules, just go slowly and start with your lips. Try to be subtle for once.” She nibbled his jaw as her hand stroked over his chest. “Think you can handle that?”

  He grinned. She did like to challenge him. He liked that side of her. Most of the time, she seemed absolutely fearless. She swung her leg over his hips and straddled him. She settled on his stomach, but scooted back until her buttocks touched his erection. He drew in a slow, hissing breath and clenched his fists. She leaned down and nibbled along his collarbone before slowly working her way to his neck.

  “I can handle that. We’ll just have to see how long subtle lasts. Since you’ve been kissing and playing, it’s my turn.” He gently pushed her up until she was sitting.

  She sat there and raised an eyebrow. She wanted subtle. It wasn’t going to be easy to give her that. She was asking for a lot. He wanted to pull her down take her nipple into his mouth and make her wild, but he wasn’t going to do it. He was enjoying this too much. He didn’t know if he was going to be able to stay as relaxed as he was feeling now.

  He rose up to his elbow. He saw her eyes widen. He knew she expected him to go straight for her breasts. That was why he wasn’t going to do it. She wanted subtle and she’d get it. He took her hand and lifted her arm. Lowering his lips, he placed a kiss on her wrist. He kissed his way up her arm to her elbow. A shiver shook her body. Hiding a smile, he thrilled at her response. He grazed his teeth over the soft skin of her elbow, before sucking lightly at the skin of her upper arm. Her hand moved to his hair, gripping it.

  “My turn now.” She tugged lightly.

  The slight sting surged through him. He growled as his body hardened even more. He wanted to push her hips back, lift her and sink into her sweet heat. Taking a deep breath, he tried to relax. He released her hand and sank back onto the cushion, ready to let her make her move.

  She leaned down and ran her tongue over his chest. Her tongue swirled around his dark brown disc. She drew back and blew a puff of air over the wet nipple. The skin tightened. Stinging prickles danced over his skin as cool air hit the moist patch. Her mouth felt like fire and he couldn’t get enough of it. Her teeth closed over the hardened tip and she tugged. He grabbed her shoulders. He was torn between the desire to hold her just where she was and the need to roll her beneath him. She released it and gave it a long, lazy lick.

  “Your turn.” She looked up at him a big smile on her face. She knew exactly what she was doing to him.

  “That wasn’t subtle.” He wrapped a strand of her hair around his finger and tugged.

  “I wasn’t trying to be subtle, Samiel.” She leaned close to nip at his neck.

  He laughed, enjoying himself. She was such a brazen tease. He loved it. He grabbed her hands and held them as he leaned up. He nipped her collarbone. Her head tipped to side, giving him more room. He didn’t take the invitation. He dropped a kiss on her chest just above the slope of her breast. She tensed. Her back arched, lifting the tempting mounds closer to his lips. He trailed kisses up the slope of her breasts. She drew in a shivering breath. He knew the tension was building and he deliberately worked his way around to the underside. Her arms tensed, but he held them to her side. He wanted to tease her. She moved restlessly. He licked his way up her breast, flicking the nipple with the tip of his tongue. He released her hand and slid his hand down her belly. She gripped his hair. He slipped his hand between them and found the wet lips of her pussy. His fingers pressed between them finding her swollen clit. She gasped, her hips pressing down into his hand. He moved it farther back and pushed two fingers deep. He felt her inner muscles clench. He wanted to feel that sheath pulling at his cock as he drove into her, but held back. There was something he needed even more. He sat up, urging her to her back in the middle of the pillows. Her eyes widened and she laughed.

  “Are you taking over now? It’s my turn.” She gently pushed at his shoulder.

  “I’m not taking over. I’m just extending my turn. There’s something I want to do.” He nipped at her belly as he crouched over her.

  She smiled and raised her brows. “That’s a little high-handed of you. I’m supposed to just let you get away with it?”

  “Let me? I’m the dragon. I get what I want.” He lowered his eyes to the glistening mound between her legs.

  Her leg rose giving him a better view of her pussy. Her sweet scent filled his senses increasing his huger. He leaned close and licked the juices on her creamy brown skin. She shivered. The taste sent a shaft of hot desire through him. He wanted more. He spread the folds and lapped at the nectar spilling from her. He wanted to hear her panting and crying his name. Her fingers tightened in his hair. He moved up to her clit and sucked at it. Her hips bucked. He loved her reaction.

  “Lady, Samiel you’re going to make me come.” She tensed.

  He could feel the shivers rolling through her body. He’d love to watch the pleasure take her, but he wanted her too much. He had to be inside her soon. Tasting her had hardened his cock to the point of pain. He lifted his head. Her eyes burned and her fingers tugged him closer. He rose over her but hesitated. He didn’t know if he could give her want she needed. A bit of doubt hit him. Meagan didn’t give him any more time to wonder about it. She shoved at one of his shoulders. He let himself fall to the side. He saw the determination in her eyes. She straddled him, her eyes fierce.

  “My turn.” She leaned down and kissed him as she slowly joined their bodies.

  He closed his eyes, savoring the tight clasp of her pussy around his shaft. He gripped her waist and pulled her down until his hips pressed against her. She smiled, bracing her hands on his chest, and rocked slowly back and forth. His hands guided her up. He needed more than the gentle rolling pace. He wanted her riding him hard and fast.

  “This isn’t the time for subtle or gentle,” he growled.

  She sank onto his cock, taking him deep. A wicked grin curved her lips. He was sure that she was going to keep up her slow pace. Her hips rose. Just as he tightened his fingers to draw her back down, she surged down then up his length again. He loved it. She panted as she rode him hard. He gritted his teeth, trying to hold back. His balls felt tight. He wanted to see her come before he relaxed.

  “Don’t worry about it. Relax. I’ll find my pleasure.” She leaned down and nipped his lip.

  Her hips ground against his. She was driving him to the edge. He resisted for a moment. She reached between them and began to stroke her clit. He let go. His fingers tangled in her hair and pulled her down to him. His lips brushed back and forth over her neck and shoulders. She groaned and tilted her head to the side. His hips pressed off the ground, lifting into her as she rode him.

  Fire raced up his spine and he felt his teeth lengthen. His muscles tightened. As his seed spurted into her, his mouth moved to her shoulder. He bit. She gasped and shuddered. Her power flooded into him, but it was the hot sensation arcing through him that held him. He groaned. She continued moving on him. He felt the first ripple of her inner muscles. Her soft cry as she came sent a rush of desire through him. He felt his cock hardening inside her. When she stilled, her breath coming in harsh pants and her body coated in a fine sweat, she’d never looked sexier.

  She leaned and lazily brushed her lips across his. “Thank you.”

  “For what?” He couldn’t understand why she’d say that. He hadn’t done anything for her or given her anything.

  “You trusted me to take care of my own pleasure and let go of your control. I th
ought it would take months for you to do that.” She nuzzled his neck.

  He frowned. He hadn’t thought of it that way, but now he was a little surprised. He didn’t know if he’d have been able to relax and take his pleasure first before. He’d have rolled her over and made sure she came at least once before he took them both over the edge.

  “You surprised me, but I’m glad you did.” She nipped at his chin. “Maybe next time we can try it in another position.”

  He laughed and created the antidote for his bite. He wasn’t going to leave her in any kind of danger. “Count on it. Now, let’s go see if Jaeson has dinner ready. Drink this.”

  She was good for him. She took the small vial and downed it.

  “I want a quick bath. I’ll be there in a minute.” She moved to the pool and slipped into the water.

  He dived in and quickly washed. He was tempted to stay in the bath with her, but they did need to eat. Jaeson would also want to be with her.

  Chapter Fourteen

  Meagan walked out into the main room. She’d created a pair of flowing silky blue pants and a loose, matching scoop-necked shirt. Jaeson sat on the deep blue couch looking utterly relaxed but brooding. Hunger burned in his eyes. She wanted to go over there, slide onto his lap and kiss him, but the scent of the food reminded her she was hungry. Glancing over toward the hearth, she saw Samiel setting a table. He looked over his shoulder and smiled.
