before he snapped it in two. The tiny scrap of material joined the skirt.
Kicking off his pants, he lifted her in a move of such casual strength she had to fight a purr. He paused next to the bed. âAre you certain about the marking, love?â Desire and need swirled deep sky through those incredible eyes.
Temptation. To belong with him for all time. But the visions told the truthâthe king might be destroyed by her if she didnât beat fate. âIâm sure.â Her voice waivered. She didnât sound sure. She needed to retain at least part of her sanity. Itâd be too easy to get lost in the kingâs plans.
Regret filled his eyes for a moment before he lay her down, following her to take one nipple into his mouth. He rumbled a sound of pure contentment, then his clever fingers found her.
She almost shot off the bed. He inserted one finger, then two in herâcriss-crossing until she clutched her hands in his thick hair, moving against him. âDage, now.â
He chuckled against her skin, his mouth tracing a liquid path around each breast to kiss her nipples, her navel, and finally down to her core. His broad hands slid up her thighs to tug them apart and his mouth went to work.
She arched off the bed as he favored her with slow licks, humming in pure appreciation, the vibrations nearly sending her over the edge. Nothing couldâve kept her from glancing toward his dark head as he feasted. Deep silver eyes met her gaze, and with a lopsided grin, he closed his entire mouth over her clit. And sucked.
The world exploded. She cried out, pressing into his mouth, stars exploding behind her eyes. Her entire body short-circuited. The only thought in her head was his name. She rode out the waves and slowly lowered back to the bed. Her heart thundered so loud it echoed through her ears.
Dage maneuvered up until he hovered, poised at her entrance, his inhuman gaze piercing hers. Her thighs grasped his hips, pressing inward. More. She needed more.
His hand clasped her hip. âYouâre mine, Emma. The sooner you accept that the better.â Heat engulfed her mouth as his lips devoured her, and he drove inside her with a force that shook the bed. Maybe the room.
She locked her ankles around his truly suburb ass, one hand fisting in his hair, the other digging into his hip as he started to move, his mouth busy on hers.
Sensations ripped through herâthe fire at her mouth, the heat at her core. She met him thrust for thrust, so many feelings crashing into her that her mind shut down. Raw hunger had her returning his kiss, sweeping inside his mouth to duel with his tongue. She took .
Spikes of fire whipped inside her, bearing down an orgasm that rippled through her entire body until her ears rang. She rode it out, clutching to Dage, all sanity gone. He caught her cry in his mouth, his fingers bruising her flesh as he growled his release against her skin.
Her thighs released his damp hips as the ripples slowly subsided. Dage shortened his thrusts until he remained motionless inside her. For one brief moment, his heartbeat echoed throughout her body, so full of emotion she had to blink away tears.
He rolled to the side, spooning her into his large body and grabbing the bedspread to cover them. âAre you all right, love?â
She stretched like a satisfied cat, forcing all emotion into a box. âFantastic.â A tingling set up through her veins as if carbonation mixed with her blood. Nerves flared to life in her extremities.
No. Anger and dread pooled near her solar plexus. âDid you mark me?â
He stiffened behind her. âOf course not. I said I wouldnât.â Thick arms tightened their hold around her waist and his breath stirred her hair. âTonight, anyway.â
She ignored the not-so-veiled threat as well as the renewed desire beginning to hum throughout her pores. âI feel different. Powerful.â What the hell had he done to her?
