Page 21 of Hunting Thana

Severin licked the twin little wounds. “Good, leanabh-nighean. I am, too.”

He moved his hand between their bodies, stopping on the top of her mound and found her clit. He circled the little nub with one finger, tapping it, rubbing, and then gripped it between two fingers, driving her over the edge into a hard and fast climax.

The pressure inside him grew. The bone-deep tingle that started at the base of his spine then flowed all the way down to his toes and back until his balls drew up, and then he spilled inside Thana.

Thana relaxed. The tight grip her body had on him eased, and their breathing slowed. He rolled to his back, taking her with him.

“You yelled, Sev. I think my eardrums might be bruised.” Thana’s head rested on his chest. He loved the way she rubbed her soft hand along his side. A female who knew she owned the male beneath her.

He traced small circles along her spine. “I didn’t yell, and certainly didn’t harm any part of you except maybe that sweet pussy of yours. I would be happy to do a thorough examination if you need me to. Of course, I’ll need to get in a different position to do so.”

Thana gasped. Her eyes shone with suppressed mirth. “That does sound like a chore.”

“I’m prepared to do anything for you, mo ghaol,” Severin grunted, tightening his arms.

Before he could act on his words, his Clan link buzzed in his mind. He sighed, hating the interruption from the outside world. Thana’s chest was warm and soft against his. He felt the steady thump of her heart. He rested his cheek against the top of her head and rubbed lightly. In that moment, he would swear life was perfect.

“Ah, such sweet sacrifice⁠—”

Thana stopped speaking when he touched his forehead.

“My Clan is reaching out to me. I didn’t want to open the link while we were busy.” Severin brushed the hair off her forehead. The slight blush excited him like nothing ever had. Hell, everything about this female excites him.

“Oh, I understand. Go ahead and do your thing. I’m going to go to the ladies’ room. Um, there is one here, yes?” Thana lifted her head from his chest and looked around the cave.

“Of course. I’m not a total barbarian.” Severin rolled Thana under him, giving her a swift kiss as he levered himself up on his arms. “I’ll make us something to eat.”

Thana flashed herself out from under him, leaving Severin staring down at an empty bed. The dark room lit up as they moved, casting golden light on the stone walls. Her laughter floated through the space, easing the constriction around his heart.

“Not a barbarian, but certainly a sex maniac,” she called.

“Are you complaining?” he asked, tone low and commanding.

“Hell no. I plan to take advantage of your swift recovery abilities often, mo ghaol. Now, leave me to my privacy while you chit-chat with your Clan.” Thana disappeared into the bathroom beside the kitchen area.

He opened the link. “What’s up?”

“Eliana has some information. We think it’s something that you need to hear in person, not through a link,” Uriel said.

Severin’s gaze went to his Crew through the link. He saw the four of them sitting in the penthouse, their faces worried. Eliana looked pensive, as if the world sat on her shoulders. “We’ll be there shortly.”

“Are you bringing your female?” Eliana asked.

Severin didn’t ask how she knew. They were all granted abilities, with some more enhanced than others. Eliana had empathic abilities before being turned, and after becoming a vampire, they’d grown stronger.

“Yes, if she agrees. I won’t make her if she doesn’t want to. We’ll see you soon, Ellie.” He sent her reassuring waves, and nobody else. Hurt clouded the aura surrounding her through the Clan link.

After they finished speaking, Severin set to creating a meal for his female. He’d seen in her mind what she’d eaten earlier. Bacon sandwiches weren’t enough fuel to sustain his female after what he’d put her through. The thought made his lips twitch. Hell, who was he kidding? He needed to refuel himself if he was going to live up to what his mouth was spouting. His dick jerked in agreement.

Damn. His tongue felt glued to the roof of his mouth the second Thana strolled out of the bathroom, her silky, bare skin on display. Her breasts weren’t large, but they were high and perfectly formed for his hands. A luscious handful with perky, berry-colored nipples he wanted to suck on. And her narrow waist flared out to a tapered waist meant for his grip when he fucked her. He wouldn’t have said a female’s ass was the first thing he noticed, but Thana’s backside made him rethink. Again, all he could come up with when describing her attributes was perfection. Long, toned legs that could take down an enemy with a swift kick, or wrap around his hips for a hell of a ride. The latter he preferred.

“You’re drooling, Severin,” she said. She wore a coy little smile.

“Of course I am. My female is walking around, tempting me with her naked little body, and I’m trying to make something edible without burning my cock or fingers.” He gestured toward the steaks on the plates with the two twice-baked potatoes next to each one. “Do you want a salad?”

Thana shook her head. “No, thank you. Are we eating naked?”

He snorted, unable to contain the joy she brought him. “I’m not sure we’d ever get anything done, even eating, unless you're lying flat and are my meal.”
