A tremor tickled against her skin. Was he laughing?

Thea shivered at the feeling of a hot tongue, lapping the skin of her breast before he moved down, licking lower until he got to her borrowed jeans. She’d never seen Jax’s face so expressive, Thunder’s emotions open and more primal in his desires.

He tugged at the jeans, pulling them off and leaving her bare before she could even react. Arms hooking beneath her knees, he pulled her body, slipping down the sheets to the end of the bed.

If Jax was cold, Thunder was hot. His silver eyes settled on her pussy, his expression that of a man starved. His breath came out in little pants, brushing against her growing slickness.

“Thunder,” she whispered, need pulsing between her legs. “Bring back Jax.”

A low purr, close enough it vibrated against her thighs and up into her clit. Thunder growled, making his purr vibrate harder. Lifting her lower body in his arms, he tilted her hips even closer to his waiting mouth.

“Bad Thunder!” she said, her body not matching her words.

“No Jax.” A shake of his head, the movement exaggerated. “Mate first.”

His eyes met hers, a moment passing between them that she didn’t understand before he delved down. The first stroke of his tongue had her lips opening in a silent cry, the movement a rush to her senses as he lapped at her like water, drinking her in like she was his only source of nourishment.

The flat of his tongue spread her wide, flicking the tip against her clit with insistent strokes.

“Bloody hell! Jax…!”

A low hum started in her chest, spreading until she felt it across her entire body. It made her clit throb, and every time his tongue touched the bundle of nerves, she wanted to jolt from the bed. But he’d pinned her hips, head disappearing between her thighs as he nibbled along her flesh.

Each lick was quick, moving faster and faster until her mind blanked but of the impending orgasm building at an alarming rate. Everything felt more intense, her skin too tight as the humming shifted into an electrical current, one driving her closer and closer to the edge. It was pure energy, as if their chis were dancing.

Sweat broke out across her skin, her fingers digging into his hair until she felt teeth brush against her clit. The orgasm ripped through her body, tearing a scream from her throat and causing her thighs to seize around his head. The electrical energy heightened, drawing out the orgasm until it finally hit another peak.

One last lap at her folds and the current broke with a burst of pure pleasure. Blood roared in her ears, and her muscles ached with how hard she’d come.

Thunder released her hips, dropping her against the soaking sheets. The humming was gone, as was his purr. But there was still warmth, spreading from her chest.

A masculine grunt. “Fuck.”

Thea blinked, every breath an effort. She looked down, finding Jax staring at the mess between her thighs with the most starved expression. His erection strained against his jeans, but he didn’t seem to notice. Not with his face covered, her cum glistening in his longer stubble. He looked like he wanted nothing more than to dive back in.

“Jax?”

He looked up, his sapphire eyes anything but frosty. Licking across his bottom lip, a moan rumbled out that had Thea wanting to press her thighs together. Except she couldn’t, because he was in the way.

“What happened?” he asked, his tone low and throaty. “Did I…?”

“No, Thunder.” She tried to sit up, but his hands clamped down on her hips, keeping her still. He seemed to be restraining himself, the cords of his throat rigid as he leaned down to nuzzle his nose against her inner thigh.

Their eyes locked, and the warmth intensified until that hum returned, but it felt strangled. It reminded her of wild magic, a similar sort of prickling sensation except it originated beneath her ribs rather than her hands.

Jax’s eyes widened, only for Thea to feel a tug, faint but distinctive, as if they were tethered.

Thea gasped. “Jax, what have you done?”

Chapter 31

Jax

Jax felt his beast give a wolfish grin, the smug bastard.

THUNDER, his beast reminded him. I THUNDER.

Jax pushed Thunder to the back of his mind.
