My heart began beating even harder.
“Do you want to feel your mark?”
I nodded. I so very badly wanted to touch it.
“Touch it through me.” He raised his hand, as if asking for my permission, and I nodded again.
He leaned closer, his breath coating my shoulder as his finger touched at the base of the mark first.
A surge of pleasure speared through me, and it only raised as his finger went over every inch of the mark.
I was feeling it through him, but also feeling his touch inside me at the same time.
Is it always like this?
His head had lowered closer to my shoulder and I felt his breath caress me. I’ve only had one other mate, but this is more than what I remember.
I had closed my eyes and I didn’t know it until I looked at him. More?
He met my gaze, our lips an inch apart. More.
Everything beautiful I had ever experienced in my life, all the memories, all the feelings, even the tears of joy, every single one of them happened again. At once. Right now. All together, and I gasped from the onslaught of it all. My throat was choking up.
Kieran… I started, but hesitated.
He kept watching me, but his finger was moving over the mark.
Every curve, turn. The skin raised to make the outline and he went over each peak, even the details to make it look as if it were on fire.
I could see it perfectly through him, his mind.
He was letting me see through him, and I was inside of him because of it.
Did you want a mate?
Some didn’t. I would understand if he was one of those.
I didn’t when I felt you, no.
I started to look away, but his other hand caught my chin. A lone finger and he turned me to look at him again.
That’s changed. I was already coming for you, but when we felt Quessadiline’s presence, I called for Rakon without a second thought. He was rising anyways. We both felt it. Rakon has always waited for me. He’s never risen without my signal. That’s how important you are to him. His hand moved to the back of my neck, spreading out. He cupped me there. To me. You’re ours. You’re mine.
He had moved even closer, our chests were touching.
I almost felt every inch of him, and I closed my eyes, giving in.
A swell flooded me, enveloping me, and taking me.
You haven’t eaten enough yet.
I nodded, already answering his call to me. I drew his energy in, digesting it, and it wasn’t the same response as the first time. I knew now that I had been pulled into Rakon. This time, it was both of them. My energy was mingling with his, and lust exploded everywhere. Inside of me. Outside of me. In Kieran. Around us. If I’d opened my eyes, I knew I would’ve seen it in the air surrounding us.
A rough groan left him, and his mouth came to mine.
That made everything even more, tenfold more.
I fed from him, and his energy, and when I was done, he lifted me back up. His mouth never left mine, his tongue slipping inside. He took me back to his bed, laying me down, and coming to cover me. He lay gently over me, but I groaned, needing him.
“You’re sore—”
I shook my head, my mouth catching him. Not anymore. I need this.
His whole body shuddered as he began kissing me back, answering my demand. He took control and demanded from me instead.
I have never felt this before.
I was scared to say the name of what I was feeling, but it was bringing tears to my eyes as Kieran undressed me.
As he kissed me.
As he moved back over me.
As he slid inside of me.
As he filled me.
He was me. We were one.
Humans didn’t know what this feeling was. They said it, but they could never experience it. I was inside of Kieran, feeling me through him and he was doing the same. He was thrusting, and the sensations were a continuous wave of pleasure.
This. He said in my head, watching me as he moved inside of me. You are my mate.
I watched him back. Yes, a whisper back from me.
Yes.
Under my touch on his back, I felt his own dragon mark surface.
