her elbows.
Aidan glanced up. “Relax, Lil.”
“I want to watch.” Spoken like a scientist studying something different.
He knew she didn’t want to watch him go down, she’d done that before. She wanted to watch him bite down.
“I’m not going to do it yet.” And he wasn’t sure he wanted her to watch, not the first time. Better to experience the thrill without seeing the teeth embedded in her skin and the white eyes of her lover.
He flicked his tongue over her clit until she began to melt and he tasted her cream. The sweetness went straight to his cock and he hardened further. He was sure he’d never been this hard. The promise of blood shimmered through him hotter than fire, an ancient desire that longed to be fed. But it was more than just blood. Lil was giving him part of herself. She was trusting him totally with her life. He took a breath designed to bring calm and failed. He’d wanted this moment with Lil for so long.
“Ohh.” She eased back. “You sure?”
“Yeah. I want to enjoy you without my jaw aching from holding back fangs.” He slid his fingers along her slit, slowing down even as he wanted to fuck her.
He knew what she liked, how to make her come. The teasing, and stroking, drawing her closer then pausing just long enough to make her wait, her heartbeat giving away her reaction before she even realized what it was she needed. Today he added something different. He pressed his fangs against the flesh of her pussy and sucked on her clit until she squirmed. Her fingers twisted in the sheets as her hips lifted, but he held back, listening to her pulse. She had to love more than just the touch of his teeth; she needed to long for the bite and the release it promised.
“I can feel them,” she said between pants.
So could he. There’d been nights when he’d been less than careful, when he’d let them drop just for the relief of not holding back. Now he used them to tease her, and himself, as he waited for the right moment to bite. He pushed two fingers into her slick core. She was wet and ready. His cock ached to take their place, but not yet. He kissed her thigh over the vein, his fangs scraping lightly over her skin. Not hard enough to draw blood—he was testing to see if she’d recoil and change her mind.
She gasped, but didn’t pull away. “Did you?”
“No.” He dragged his teeth over her thigh again, the hunger to taste and fuck pushing him closer. She trembled and her pussy tightened around his cream-coated fingers. His cock throbbed. The tight self-control he’d had over the past few months unraveled faster than he’d expected. Around Lil, he’d never had much. They’d fallen into bed fast.
“It’s kinda sexy.”
“Glad you like them.” Because forcing his fangs back and acting human now would’ve really dampened the mood. He glanced up at her half closed eyes and parted mouth. A picture of lust, repeated in the music of her pulse. If she were going to freak out, she would’ve already.
His thumb circled, moving over her slick clit as his fingers pumped in her core, drawing her closer to the edge. His tongue traced over the place he wanted to bite. Inner thigh, intimate without being dangerous or visible. He’s always liked Lil’s long legs. His teeth pressed into her soft skin. Her heartbeat rose, while her breathing almost stopped. He paused for a second.
Then bit. His fangs cut through her skin.
She came hard. A moan on her lips and a drop of blood in his mouth. The etheric of her body became part of him before he had time to truly taste her. There wasn’t enough blood to satisfy, just enough to tempt him with her coppery-honey. He resisted the urge to take more, even though he knew could safely, and licked the puncture closed, lingering over their first bite. It had been a long time since he’d had a lover he could truly share with.
Lil slapped him on the shoulder. “You did it.”
“Hmmm.” Aidan kissed her stomach, working his way higher to
