Chapter 46 Chapter 46
Devin stood at the end of the bed with a towel wrapped loosely around his waist as she walked into the room. His hair was still dripping and rolling down over his broad shoulders and sculpted chest. Rayne thought she would be nervous, knowing now what this would mean, but she wasn’t feeling any hesitation. Her body responded as soon as she looked at him, heat coiling through her. Rayne’s wolf knew this was her mate standing before her and she didn’t have one moment’s hesitation either.
He was tense and she knew a part of him still wasn’t sure that she really did intend to accept him and be claimed. Rayne loved the power this gave her. Never having been in control of anything in her life, the thrill of knowing she alone was choosing her future left her exhilarated.
She undid the buttons on her blouse as she walked towards him, feeling sexy with each step. His chest rose and fell deeply as his eyes followed the movement of her hands. Rayne slipped her shirt off and dropped it onto the floor while moving closer to him.
The towel didn’t hide how aroused he was and just knowing what lie beneath it caused her heart to speed up. Stopping a few feet from him she undid her slacks and slowly slid them over her hips, letting them drop to the floor. She hadn’t bothered with underwear. When she had decided to come back today, Rayne knew what she was coming for and made the task as easy as possible to accomplish.
He rubbed a hand over the growing bulge barely hidden by the towel. She watched his face as she moved to stand right in front of him, he had to work hard to not touch her if the clenching of his jaw was any indication. Leaning over, she ran her tongue over his chest and caught her breath as he shivered from the touch. “I just want to make sure I do this right,” she licked him again and glanced down at his hands that were clenched into fists as his side. “You’re not allowed to touch me in any way until I put my mark on you... is that right?” She lightly bit one nipple.
“Yes,” he whispered with a shaky voice.
Rayne feed on the knowledge of her power, feeling dominant for the first time in her life. She knew she was playing with fire, and loved it. Pulling the towel, she let it drop to the floor and moved her body into the heat of his. As she ran her hands up over his chest he shuddered. Wrapping her arms around him she nuzzled her face into his neck. “And it goes right here?” She licked the taught muscle where his shoulder and neck met.
“Yes,” he growled.
Dropping her arms, she gently shoved against his chest until he backed up to the bed. As he sat down she smiled down at him and ran her hands through his hair. Lowering her mouth to his, she glanced down to see him gripping the edge of the bed. Rayne kissed him tenderly and almost lost her nerve as he drank at her mouth like a starving man would. “Lie down,” she whispered against his lips.
As he slid his body up on the bed, she crawled up it after him until she was straddling his legs. He laid there, fire blazing in his eyes and she knew exactly what was going to happen once she placed her mark on him. Moving slowly, Rayne lowered her mouth to his legs and kissed her way up one of them as she crawled higher on his body. His breathing was ragged by the time she reached his hip. Looking up at him, she ran her tongue over the tip of his hot erection, he groaned and grabbed at the bed with both hands, fighting every instinct to touch her.
Smiling, she moved up on her knees until she was over his hips and lowered herself just enough that she could feel his body resting against the wet core of hers. He clenched his jaw and he watched her with eyes that held a promise of retaliation. Rayne ran her hands up his chest and leaned down to bite gently at one nipple. She could feel his shoulders tighten as he fought to keep from touching her.
Lifting her hips, she lowered onto him, slowly taking him into her body. She’d never felt anything so good. His whole body was tense, but pleasure filled his eyes this time. Sitting up, she smiled at him and ran her hands down over her breasts that were aching for his touch. He jerked his hips, almost squirming beneath her. Rayne knew the moment she relented she wouldn’t be able to control the pace, so she lifted her body up and lowered it slowly onto him again. She was barely able to maintain the sensual movement because she was so turned on with wanting him that her legs were shaking already.
Leaning down Rayne continued to slide his body into hers. She licked over his throat and was rewarded with a growl. “I accept you, Devin,” she gasped against his skin. There was no hesitation as she opened her mouth against his neck and felt her teeth lengthen just enough to bite into him. She tasted blood in her mouth and heard him gasp loudly.
Before she could lift her mouth again he grasped her hips and slammed her down onto him with another growl. It was her turn to moan as his fingers dug into her flesh while he lifted her over and over again thrusting up as he brought their bodies together.
Rayne cried when the orgasm hit her without warning and then had no choice but to hang onto him as it poured over her, leaving her weak and dizzy.
Before she could catch her breath, she was flipped onto her back as he continued the hard tempo. His hands moved over her skin, leaving a fire in their wake. His mouth claimed hers roughly—making Rayne climb higher again. She felt like he was touching and kissing her everywhere at the same time and could only try to catch up to his movement. Lifting her hips, he went to his knees and looked down at their bodies and he thrust into her. She was gasping for air and moaning at the same time. When she felt another wave come over her, she reached out for him to draw him back down to her, but he continued to move with more force and she came screaming his name.
Devin slowed briefly and she felt him pull out of her body and then she was flipped over onto her stomach. Wrapping his arm around her he shoved into her quaking folds as he moved her higher on the bed. He paused, buried deep inside her and leaned her against the wall above the bed. His lips moved over her neck and shoulders, as his hand cupped her breast and kneaded it. With no further warning his teeth sunk into her neck right over his mark on her skin.
Rayne cried out as her muscles clamped down around his. His hips thrust at a furious speed, slamming their flesh together as he grasped her waist to keep her still. He didn’t remove his teeth from her shoulder, letting her know that she was claimed from this moment on, while his body ruled over her and he brought spasm after spasm to her. The entire room was spinning and Rayne couldn’t find air to bring into her lungs when the third climax slammed through her. She screamed at the same moment he growled deeply and he filled her with a burning heat.
As Rayne tried to remember how to breathe, his hips continued to jerk against her. If it weren’t for the wall and his arm around her, Rayne would have slid, boneless, from the bed. He shifted them to lie down on the mattress, his body still deep inside of her. Rayne’s head floated as his tongue moved over the mark at her neck. His hand gently cupped her breast and flicked the still hard nipple with his thumb. Each movement brought small spasms through her, causing her to gasp again.
“I could keep doing this for another hour... and your body would comply with my demands.” To illustrate his point, he slid his hand down to her tender clit and rubbed over it, making her moan and shake in his arms.
Rayne couldn’t speak, only lie there.
“You’re mine now, your body belongs to me.”
He thrust into her and she moaned again when her sensitive muscles clenched around him. His hands stopped moving and his mouth placed soft lingering kisses against her damp skin.
“You are also my heart and I love you, Rayne.”
Rayne smiled, still trying to catch her breath. “And you’re mine.” She heaved a sigh as he pulled from her body slowly. Shuddering in his arms, he flipped her onto her back and leaned down over her. She touched his face and smiled again. “I love you too.” She quietly sighed again. “I could sleep for a week now.”
He chuckled. “Considering you invited every leader here to invade our solitude—I don’t think that’s going to happen.”
Rayne laughed. “I knew you’d see it my way.”
Devin raised an eyebrow and looked at her with an amused look. “You do know I’m the one that’s supposed to rule, right?”
“Like your father does without your mother’s help?”
Dropping his head down, he rested his forehead against hers. “I see your point.” He kissed her lingeringly, until she had to catch her breath again. “Just let me pretend I’m in charge occasionally.”
“Kiss me like that every day and it’s a deal.”
“Every day, every hour, every thirty seconds...” His mouth covered hers again and sent her world spinning.
