Just then her orgasm overtakes her, overtakes us both. I’m forced to slow my strokes; the muscles in her pelvis squeezing me so tightly it feels like a fist.
She hovers there with her lips parted in a silent moan, her green eyes fixed on me. Then, suddenly she’s shuddering and jerking, calling out my name as she rushes down the other side of the peak she hit.
Holy forest spirits I don’t know how I hold on, but somehow I do. I ride out her pleasure until she bursts in a sweet flood of moisture on the other end.
She blinks, and her grin is just a little lopsided. Adorable.
I withdraw, cock twitching in protest and balls aching. Wrapping my fist around my length, I look down at my mate, dazed from my attention and watching me eagerly.
She gathers the copious slick spilling from her pussy and lifts her hand for me to take into my mouth. I groan. Her flavor is rich and creamy from her release. I’m so fucking close.
When she returns her hand to her pussy, she rubs little circles around her clit, and my hips thrust forward into my hand just watching.
“Go again. That’s it.”
“Mmm.”
“So fucking hot.”
Her back bows and moisture spills from her cunt again. That’s it for me.
With a growl I spill too, my thick white release dripping from me to spray across her swollen labia. Everything in me tightens and then relaxes, and I’m floating for a moment as the blood rushes from my head to somewhere much further south.
Slightly dazed still, I lean down to capture her mouth in a lingering kiss, pulling back only so I can look at her again. “Love you, Ver. You’re my whole world.”
Through a watery smile, she shakes her head. “Well, same. Imagine thinking I wouldn’t come find you wherever you run to.”
THIRTY ONE
Vera
Bas pulls me onto his big warm chest, and I sigh contentedly. He places the covers over us so I won’t get cold, and a chuckle shakes his whole chest and me along with it. “Think you can shift again to go home?”
I flush. “Oh yeah, I didn’t really think of that.” If I can’t, I’m going to be walking home naked in human form, since I left my clothes at home.
He smooths a large palm down my back. “I’m only teasing. I’m sure you can.”
We’re quiet for a while. I lay my head back on his chest and listen to his heartbeat and the gentle sounds of his body. My belly grows sticky with drying cum, but I don’t want to move.
“Now what was it that you felt you had to keep such a secret from me?” he says.
“I, ah… I got an interview for a job… in Florida.” I don’t dare look at him as I stutter out the words, sure he’s going to react badly. “I’m going to turn them down, of course.”
“Are you sure that’s what you want to do?”
Now I look up, studying his face, but his expression is unreadable. Through the mate bond I’m getting only calm and concern for me. Guess I should have known better than to doubt him after all. “Yeah, of course. I want to be with you, silly.”
“Well who says you couldn’t? What if I quit my job and we both move to Florida?”
I frown. “You’d hate Florida. Too hot. Too many bugs. You love Black Pines.”
He sighs. “I do, but I love you more.”
“Awwww.” I squirm up until I can drop a kiss on his nose and grin down at him. “You’re the cutest. Seriously, though, I don’t think I want to live in Florida, and I have been giving some thought to what you said about going all trad mate and yeah, maybe there’s merit in that. At least for a while.”
“Oh thank all the gods.” He sags under me and I laugh. “I really don’t want to move to Florida, you’re right.”
“And I was actually looking forward to getting to know Adley again now she’s back in Mosswood. She’s lovely. Besides, if we move to Florida, then we won’t be here to watch all Riley’s awkward attempts to be a dad. And that would be a travesty.”
