Yede crouched beside them, his massive body somehow making the moment more intimate. “What if I tell you the story about the star-keeper?”
Liam’s face lit up. “The one with the flying creatures?”
They settled onto his bed, Liam nestled between them as Yede’s deep voice filled the room. She stroked Liam’s hair, watching his eyelids grow heavy despite his attempts to stay awake. She hummed an old lullaby her mother used to sing, the melody weaving through Yede’s words.
“Just one more story?” Liam mumbled, even as he burrowed deeper under his blankets.
“Sleep now, sweetheart.”
She tucked the covers around him, pressing a kiss to his forehead. His breathing evened out almost immediately.
She and Yede lingered a moment longer to watch his peaceful face in the soft light. Their son, safe and loved, dreaming of tomorrow’s celebrations.
Then he took her hand and led her down the hallway to their room. The flickering candlelight turned his white fur silver and gold and his eyes blazed silver as he turned to her.
“I love you,” he said softly. “I’ve been alone for so long that I’d forgotten what it was like to be a part of a family. But now that I’ve found it, I’ll do anything to protect it.”
“As will I,” she vowed.
He bent his head and kissed her, tender at first but then more demandingly as she teased his tongue. Her fingers curled around his horns and his hand found its way into her hair. The heat of his mouth and the touch of his tongue against hers filled her with warmth.
He scooped her up and carried her to their bed, settling her gently against the pillows. His hands were gentle and sure as he slowly undressed her, his fur whispering across her bare skin.
“Are you sure you’re well enough for this?” he asked, frowning at the bandage on her neck..
“Very sure.”
She tugged his head down, pulling him into another kiss. His big body pressed her into the mattress as their tongues tangled and heat coiled low in her stomach. His cock sprang free of its sheath, hard and hot against her thigh, and she moaned, arching up against him.
“Please,” she panted when he broke the kiss to nibble on her neck. “I need you now.”
His eyes met hers, still concerned.
“I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t. I need to feel you.” She reached up to stroke his face, her thumb rubbing gently against his cheek. “I love you.”
His expression softened and he kissed her again, harder this time, before sitting back on his knees to look down at her. His massive hands curled around her thighs, spreading them apart, and the look in his eyes as he studied her made her feel beautiful, desired.
“So perfect,” he growled, his thumbs caressing her inner thighs. He leaned forward, inhaling deeply. “And you smell so sweet, so tempting.”
She gasped as he lowered his head, his hot breath washing over her. His tongue flicked out to lick her swollen clit and her hipsarched up towards him. He growled, the vibrations making her moan. His thick fingers parted her folds, exposing her throbbing nub, and she cried out when he licked it again.
“Quiet,” he growled softly. “You don’t want to wake up Liam.”
He licked her again and she bit her lip to silence her moans. His tongue moved in slow circles, teasing her clit and driving her higher. She could feel the pressure building inside her, threatening to explode, and when he pushed one thick finger inside her she came apart with a silent scream. His tongue continued to work her as he added a second finger, curling both to hit a sensitive spot inside her that made her writhe against the sheets.
“More,” she pleaded, wanting to feel his weight on top of her, the heat of his body against hers.
He moved over her, his cock nudging at her entrance. He paused, looking down into her face, and the love and desire in his eyes almost took her breath away. She pulled him down for a kiss as he entered her in one smooth thrust. He filled her completely, stretching her, and she moaned into his mouth.
“Love you.” His voice was strained, the corded muscles in his neck standing out. “So much.”
He started to move, his strokes long and deep. His thick fur whispered over her sensitive skin with every thrust, making her shiver with pleasure. The feel of him on top of her, inside her, surrounded her.
She clung to him, her hands gripping his massive shoulders as they moved together. Her breasts rubbed against the soft fur on his broad chest, adding to the sensations overwhelming her, building and building until she shattered beneath him.He caught her cry with his kiss, his pace never slowing as he continued to thrust.
Another climax built, even stronger than the last, and she wrapped her legs around his waist. His growls were becoming louder, his movements more urgent, and she could sense how close he was to losing control. She didn’t care. She wanted everything he had to give, to be filled with his seed, to belong to him forever.
