Mated to a Lion

Page 12

I didn't remember falling asleep. However, waking in Darius' arms for the first time, I was going to remember this. I had to admit as I looked at him, the tawny hair, the blue eyes hidden by his lids, the firm jaw and broad shoulders. He was a remarkably handsome man, and he was mine. A softening in my heart told me that the simple changes he'd made to be kinder, the way he'd apologize, giving me the furniture. It all said that I was softening and falling for him. To fall for my own mate was a good thing. I just wasn't sure he'd ever be capable of feeling the same. He cared for me in some respect or he'd not have apologized to me. But I think the most I could hope for was being his friend and lover. He'd never love me as much as I thought I could love him. I wanted to love him, I wanted that feeling I saw in the couples I knew. His heart already belonged to someone else but maybe I could have the rest of him. Lifting a finger I traced his lips. Over his chin, the bristle of his nights beard growl tickled my finger tip.

"Pregnant people should get more sleep." His deep voice in the quiet room makes me jump.

"But I'm not tired." I tell him. His eyes open to look at me. Raising up I look down at him. I'd only been the recipient in our lovemaking. I'd never initiated it. I did now. The kiss I gave him was hesitant. It was easier to follow then to take the initiative and lead him, ask for something, spark desire in him. His hand rest on my hips as I lifted up and slid over his waist. I wanted to make love. What we'd had at first, that was over. He'd been passionate but it still lacked that connection I wanted. Would I ever be able to reach him?

I didn't hurry but learned his mouth. I kissed over his face and got a smile from him. Slipping down further I kissed over his chest. Taking my time I learned his whole torso every little bump and dip that he had. Slipping even lower I decided to do something I was pretty nervous about. His pants and underwear slipped down and off easily. Going back up to his cock I lifted it and laid a single kiss on it's tip. He was watching me avidly. I took his cock in my mouth hesitantly. Would he like this? I had no idea what I was doing. Just concentrating on the feel of him I licked up his shaft then turned his cock to the side so I could run my tongue up and down it with an easy turn of my head. I heard a hitching his breathing and new it was working. I took a breath licked my lips and took his cock in my mouth all the way to my throat. It triggered my gag reflex but I didn't let that stop me. I moved slow taking his cock in and letting it slide out. A moan from Darius said that it was working. My body was demanding him now, I shimmied up and out of my clothes before spreading over him and taking his cock inside of me.

I didn't go fast but took my time. His hands were laying on my hips just letting me set the pace. I took his hands threading my fingers with his and using them to balance myself as I moved faster. His eyes traced over my body, his thumbs made little strokes on mine. His hands drop mine as he leans up and pulls me into his arms. I'm kissed slowly, deeply, and then rolled to my back so he can take that slow tour of my body then slide up and inside me. It's a roll inside my body and a shaking orgasm runs through me only to keep running. It rolls higher and higher with every stroke. When he finally comes I'm dizzy and holding tight to him. That had been very different. He pulls out but just rolls us to the side and holds me tight.

Yes, this was definitely more. I curled into his chest and closed my eyes.

AN: Hi, I know this is really short but it's worth it to keep reading.
