I let my hand slip away.
“You’re just too happy,” he said with a warm smile. “You’re afraid something will happen to crush our perfect life. You don’t feel like you deserve this . . .” He shook his head. “This incredible joy. You’ve finally found true love, true happiness, and you’re scared something will happen to make it all go away.”
He was speaking for himself, too. We’d had this talk. Everything was going so well. Unbelievably so. Our love strengthened every day. My fondness for him knew no limits. My excitement for our future, both personally and with the kingdom as a whole, was at an all-time high. We were doing something special in this kingdom. We all worked together, came up with new ideas, and the gold we made was always pumped back into the kingdom to foster prosperity and growth of the people. We were expanding, but not so far that we’d become disjointed like the Red Lupine kingdom, with villages falling off the map, isolated and left to the wilds.
We were a pack, all of us. We were strong. Some of us were crazy (dragons). It worked.
My biggest fear was that I’d wake up from this dream.
I nodded slowly.
“Me too,” he whispered. “But remember what we said? We can’t let fear alter our journey. We need to live in each moment and savor each smile, each touch. We can’t let our fear of what might come get in the way of our enjoyment of the here and now. Right?”
I let out a long, slow breath and nodded again.
“Right.” He kissed the tip of my nose and then my lips. “I’ll have wolves with me. I won’t be alone. You stay here, safe and warm, and I’ll be back before you know it.”
“Are you nuts? I’m not going to stay in bed. Don’t you remember the number of orders the queen handed me yesterday? The Flamma kingdom went crazy for the new product, and the merchants are clamoring for more. They especially love the elixirs that glow, even though they are only a mild relaxant. Wolf flower for the win! Take that, dragon weed.”
He laughed. “You have more help now, and Vemar is a champ at making the dangerous stuff. Take a break. They’ll be okay for a day.”
I frowned at him and pushed up to sitting. “They’re being very patient with me. I’m not going to slack off.”
His gaze turned sharp, but he didn’t say what I knew he was thinking: Take it easy and look after yourself and our baby.
“I know, I know,” I grumbled. “I’ll be careful.”
He kissed my forehead. “Good girl. I’ll see you later.” He paused. “I’d planned to make dinner tonight. Don’t let Hadriel talk you out of letting me.”
I laughed and watched him leave the bedroom before feeling a little naughty and lying back down. I slipped my hand into my pants, finding the right spot and starting to massage. Pleasure immediately rolled through me, and then through the bond.
Desire filtered back through, then frustration. Before I knew it, he was standing in the doorframe, staring at me.
“You’re killing me,” he growled.
“C’mere, Daddy. Let me suck that cock while I get myself off.”
I slipped my other hand up my shirt and tweaked a nipple, moaning with the sensations.
He swore but started forward, working at his belt. He took out his cock and pumped it a couple times before kneeling on the bed, his hand at the back of my head, guiding my face toward him. I sucked him in deep as he fisted my hair and started thrusting, face-fucking me.
I groaned when the sweet taste of precum exploded across my tongue. I worked my fingers faster, building higher. His pleasure coursed through the bond.
“Do you like sucking your alpha’s big cock, Little Wolf?” he growled, thrusting.
I moaned out my answer, gyrating as I massaged. My cheeks hollowed with my suction; his smooth skin slid against my lips and his cock plunged deep into my throat. I felt his pleasure build as he worked and released my hand from my nipple to wrap my fingers around his shaft. I slid my hand in time with my mouth.
“Fuck,” he ground out, tensing.
I rubbed myself and sucked, working faster, nearly there.
He groaned as he exploded, his delicious flavor flooding my mouth. I sucked it down as an orgasm hit me, making me shake on the bed.
He extracted himself before bending to kiss me, tasting himself on my lips.
“Naughty girl,” he whispered, before tucking himself away and heading for the door.
I gave myself a moment with an evil smile before rolling to my feet. A few moments later I heard the exterior door close and felt him moving away.
After a glass of water and a quick bite to eat, I headed for the door myself. As I opened it, I was surprised to find Finley out there, ready to knock. She paused with her hand in the air.
