Saving His Mate ( Lycan Romance ) Page 14

  “She knows that. But she’s a little…”Summer raised her brows and Abe frowned down at her, it took him a long moment to catch the sexual gist of the way Summer was glaring at him.

  “Needy?”Abe almost swallowed his tongue as Summer beamed at him.

  “But, you didn’t hear that from me.”Summer scolded him and he shook his head.

  “She was feeling the mating pull this morning, but I thought…”

  “Yeah, well she thinks differently.”Summer shot back, not really wanting to have this conversation with her new brother about her best friend.

  “Right.” Abe finished pouring the coffee and turned on his heels, mugs in hand, and then he turned back and gave her an awkward smile.

  “Thanks.”

  “I’d say anytime, but let’s hope you don’t need a nudge in future.”She couldn’t help but tease him and the smile faded as he raised just one brow at her.

  “Funny.”He huffed and was one his way.

  Summer turned back towards the window on a chuckle and noted that the wolves were no longer in sight. Could Abe have sent them off now that he was home?

  Abe could hear his mate in the bathroom and placed the mugs down onto the bedside cabinet. Turning at the sound of the door, he watched her step into the room, lost in thought as her eyes came up to him and she jumped in place, letting out a small shriek as her fists clenched and her body tensed.

  “Don’t do that!” She growled at him, and for a Fae she did a pretty good impression of a Lycan, and Abe couldn’t help the grin that spread across his face.

  “Do what?”He teased, knowing full well what she was angry about.

  “Appear like that…”She spat out as she stalked towards the bed.

  “I thought you’d still be in bed.”

  “You said I could use the damn bathroom.”She hissed at him, changing direction from directly at him, to climb up over the mattress on her hands and knees until she reached the pillows.

  Abe couldn’t help the growl of desire that rolled through his body at seeing her on her hands and knees. The Tee he had given her was down to her knees when she was standing, but it rode up over her behind and gave him a good look of her shapely thighs and the swell of her backside as she crawled.

  “And don’t stand there growling at me…”

  “I wasn’t growling at you…”Abe caught the new growl that threatened and buried it as she flopped onto her backside and reached for the covers, yanking them up over her legs and making his eyes travel back up to her face.

  “So who were you growling at then?”She demanded, pinning him with her eyes, and he swallowed hard.

  “I was growling at the sight… you’re… you were…”His brain was daft. He couldn’t seem to come up with an excuse…

  “So you were growling at me.”Tina gave him the sweet smile of victory and he rolled his eyes and dropped his backside down onto the bed beside her.

  “I bought you a coffee…”He motioned to the cups on the side and she frowned again. It wasn’t coffee that she wanted, but she acknowledged the gesture. Her eyes flicking back to the sight of his naked chest, the way his muscles were clenching and releasing, and the dark swirls of hair that covered his chest and reached down his abdomen to disappear within the confines of his jeans, and she swallowed down the need to reach out and follow it into the open top of those jeans.

  Abe watched her eyes travel down his body and he could have sworn he felt the caress of her touch as they reached lower. Her head practically strained upon her neck as she slowly stretched upwards as her gaze tried to travel down inside his damn jeans.

  Abe pulled himself to his feet and her eyes flicked to his. He saw the blush on her cheeks as she realised she’d been caught staring and the rush to panic as she tried to think of something to say, but his hand was already pulling down the zipper as his shaft strained heavy against the fabric, and her eyes dropped back downwards again.

  “What are you…?”She licked her lips, she couldn’t help it, damn, busted again, she thought as she heard his deep chuckle.

  “If my mate wants to see…”

  “I never said…”She rushed out as her eyes flicked up, but couldn’t resist flicking right back down again.

  “Not with your words, sweetheart.”Abe moved the fabric aside and felt the relief as his manhood gained its freedom. Her eyes widened and her nostrils flared as she took in the sight of him. He heard her pulse speed up and saw the tip of her tongue trace over her lower lip, and he discarded the rest of the fabric on the floor.

  “You wouldn’t touch me this morning…”He heard her soft words and couldn’t keep the longing from his voice.

  “I will now…”He growled gently towards her. Reaching out with one hand he gripped the covers and yanked them down the bed. He moved slowly towards her, kneeling on the mattress, he scooped her against him and eased her down the bed to lie beside him.

  Abe pressed her body against his as he teased her lips with his tongue. She’d denied him the taste of her lips for too long. He’d had the taste of her blood on his tongue last night when he took care of her wounds, but this was so much more, and when she opened to him, he savoured that first taste as his tongue ran over hers.

  The gentle growl that rolled through him only served to press her closer to him, her body searching for his warmth, his touch, him. Her hands couldn’t be still as they travelled over his body, glorying in the well defined muscles under her fingertips, and he placed his hand on her back and rolled her on top of him so she could better explore.

  Tina had never been kissed like this before. The slow teasing swirl of his tongue gave away to a devouring that had her breaking away to gasp in a breath. His mouth still sough her taste, running down over her neck as he nuzzled against her neck and suckled over the fast beating pulse, as she moved her hips against his, lower and lower until she felt the hot press of his hardness against her sex.

  His fingers traced down over the smooth globe of her backside and he felt her tense as he traced over the tight puckered hole on his way for the true prize. His growl met her moan as he traced over the wetness of her channel, he rimmed the sensitive edges, before slipping just one finger into her. His other fingers snaked through her folds and found the little nub of her passion, moving in circles over the tender spot until she wriggled against his touch.

  Abe was more than tempted to give her what she was seeking as she moved back and forth over the length of his shaft that rested against her mound. The way she gasped and moaned as he ran his fingers over her sex made him want to sink his length inside her body and feel her heat to the hilt, but he eased her body back up away from his length as he captured her lips and devoured her mouth again.

  Abe growled with the need she was creating within him. Her body was responding to his touch with a fire that he could never have imagined. She pulled away from his mouth and found the hollow of his throat, and when she nipped against him, he almost lost it.

  Abe rolled her over onto her back and slowly added another finger into her grasping channel as he flicked out the claws on his freehand and carefully tore down the length of his favourite T-shirt that bared his way to her breasts. She hadn’t noticed, her face was nuzzled against his neck and she was doing wicked things with her tongue, any more of that and he wasn’t going to be able to control the urge to take her.

  He spun his thumb against her nub until she gasped in a breath and he took her knuckle deep, as he dipped his head and devoured first one nipple and then the other. Her hands were urging him to come to her, to push inside her, and when he wouldn’t budge she took to pushing against his chest, and he let her roll him onto his back again as she straddled him.

  “I want to taste you first…”He growled against her lips. His hands found her hips and he lifted her up his body. The sound of her surprise made him chuckle as he brought her sex down over his face and held her firmly against him. This wasn’t a time to slowly tease her into submission. She was aching with a need for him and he w
as aching to oblige, but first he wanted her good and wet to ease his passage inside him.

  Abe felt her try to squirm above him and he held her in place. He nuzzled into her sex and wasn’t slow about taking her towards her first release. He buried his tongue as deep into her channel as he could get, snaking inside her body until she moaned out loud. Then he shifted her position and took the little pearl beneath the hood with his tongue as his lips closed around it and he suckled her hard and fast towards release.

  Tina threw her head back and gloried in the waves that flowed through her. It was a pressure value that needed relief, but it was quick to subside and hollow by nature because he wasn’t inside her. She came back down to the feel of him lapping against her, tasting her the way he needed to in order to know her, but she needed more.

  “Abe…”She growled out above him and felt his grip tighten around her hips again as he lifted her down his hard body. He let her go as he grabbed a handful of covers and wiped the juices from his face, and in that instant she had already captured him in her hand and was already taking him inside her mouth and he growled with the sweet pleasure of her tongue working over him and the warmth of her mouth.

  “Woman don’t you ever stay still…”He growled down at her, closing his fingers around her upper arms and pulling her back up the length of his body. The wet pop of her lips leaving him was closely followed by the annoyed groan she offered up at him.

  “Why’d you do that?”She bit out, trying to pull back down his body.

  “Because, this isn’t about me, it’s about you…”He went to roll her onto her back, but she dug in with her knee in the bed and flattened her palms against his chest.

  “It’s about us.”She offered and felt his body still against hers. She took that moment to rub her sex over his shaft, finding the bulbous head and pushing down slowly until she knew he wasn’t going to slip out from inside her.

  Abe’s eyes darkened even more as he felt the heat of her channel take him inside. The gentle growl of desire made her fingers tingle against his chest and she pushed down. Her lips parted in a sigh as she felt him stretching her core, the thickness easing against the silken walls, as her muscles still throbbed gently within her.

  Abe put his hands on her hips and guided her body first up and then down further onto him, taking him deeper with every stroke. Her inner muscles lapped around him, like a welcoming suckle before she pushed up just a little to allow her juices to cover more of him, before pushing back down, inch by inch, claiming him just as he was claiming her.

  She didn’t know how much more she could stretch, how deeper he could go inside her, she already felt deliciously full, but when his thumb found the sensitive little nub he had already been suckling and he teased it, she found herself opening to him even further, until he was pressed to the hilt within her and she ground down onto him, rotating her hips and glorying in the feel of him moving inside the sensitive walls like a caress.

  Abe removed the shredded top and when his hands ran down over her back her whole body tensed with the feel of his fingers as they ran over her scars.

  “No.”She went to pull away from his touch, but in one quick movement he pulled himself upwards in the bed and cradled her against his chest.

  “I saw them last night. I washed them and touched them. They are a part of you and I honour all of your body, sweetheart.”He soothed her back to him. Back from her fears and her discomfort, back to the feel of her body against his, and he eased them up in the bed until he was on his knees.

  “Let me show you…”He growled against her ear as he slowly eased out of her and turned her to lie face down on the bed beneath him. His hands traced down over her shoulders and back, slowly, tenderly he caressed her skin, and then her scars, running over them first with his fingertips and then with his tongue until he felt her completely relax under his touch.

  “Don’t hide from me, because I won’t let you. You’re my mate and I want to know every part of you, mind, body and soul.”He breathed against her neck before he nuzzled into her, suckling her pulse and running his hand down over her back one last time as her body squirmed beneath him and his hand traced down over her folds.

  “You, Abe. I want you inside me.”She lifted her hips from the bed and felt the hard press of his arousal against her channel. Abe rested down on his elbow and guided his shaft back within her body. Pressing inside in one long stroke, he took her to the hilt and felt her muscles tense around him.

  He felt bigger this way, she felt fuller, and each slow, long stroke glided over the sweet spot, making that excitable little knot tighten within her. Abe pressed his hand against her mound and lifted her hips just slightly from the bed, his fingers worked over her nub and his hips moved faster against her backside. He was nuzzled against her neck, taking in the sweet scent of her and tasting her skin on his tongue.

  “Mark- me as yours.”Tina breathed out, knowing that he was pushing her towards another release, and when she heard his deep growl roll against her skin, she could picture his fangs elongated as they had been last night and there wasn’t a moment’s fear inside her.

  Abe shifted his hips and pressed his upper body against hers so she wouldn’t pull away when his fangs were in her flesh. He reached for her hand and laced his fingers into hers. Fisting her hair, he eased her head to where he needed it to be. He felt the urgency of his wolf within him to mark their mate as his fangs slipped into place and he thrust into her, taking her hard and fast over the edge of the abyss. Her body tensed beneath him before her orgasm tore through her, harder this time, claiming every inch of her body as he pressed his fangs into the soft skin of her shoulder and tasted her blood on his tongue.

  His wolf roared his claim inside him as his mate went limp beneath his body, and he eased his fangs from her flesh as his own urge for release gained ground within him.

  Abe nudged her thighs together. Bringing his knees down either side of her legs, he felt the tight throbbing of her muscles around his shaft and gave into his own needs. His other hand found hers as his whole body caged hers beneath him. Thrusting into her, over and over until he felt her body responding to his, when she started to moan her own need with each thrust, he let himself go to enjoy the wild abandon of her body.

  The feel of her muscles clenching around him, the way her hips came slightly off the bed to meet his thrusts, the sounds she made, and the way her fingers curled in his.

  He heard her cry out and felt the shudder that wracked her body a moment before her inner muscles massaged his own release. Thrusting in deeply against her womb he buried his face against her neck and growled his pleasure as his seed pumped out within her, over and over, until she had claimed ever last drop he had to offer, his hips gently rocking back and forth, even after he was done, prolonging the feeling within both of them.

  Flynn caught the scent on the wind and growled long and hard in disbelief. He’d come back the long way from where he’d left his brother, travelling over the rougher terrain of the land. He didn’t think Porter would have been stupid enough to set foot on their property, but it was the last place that they hadn’t covered, and now it set his mind at rest to know every inch of their land had been checked.

  They’d caught Porters scent within in the caves on the other side of town and surmised he’d spent some time there hiding out before he left. But there was no scent of him outside the caves, and neither he nor Abe could pick up any tracks, so he’d allowed Abe to go back and check on his mate while he finished the last stretch.

  He wished he hadn’t bothered. If he’d come home sooner he might have caught the damn woman sneaking out. Now he would have to track her and see just how far she had managed to get alone, and when he found Summer, she was going to get more than a piece of his mind for leaving the safety of the cabin.

  Summer wrapped her arms around her body and stood looking at the bed and breakfast. The deep shudder that wracked her body had nothing to do with the sudden drop in temperature with the onset of nigh
t around her. It had more to do with the memory of what Porter had put those Fae through in the basement of that unassuming house.

  How many Fae lives had he taken? How much magic he had stolen? And just how much had he amassed over the years? Those were questions that she never thought she would get answers too, and it might make sleeping at night easier if she didn’t know.

  Summer knew what she needed to do. She wasn’t about to go inside that damned house and search through his basement for the tools of his dark gift, but she could still destroy them, and that was the most important thing.

  Summer had already called the corners. The small candles burned brightly around her. The salt she had drawn the circle with, protecting her workspace, and the pentagram she needed for her personal protection lay under her feet. She took her time to let the calmness into her body. Breathed in the air around her, felt the cold chill of the hard earth beneath her bare feet, was mindful of the ice that nestled against the bare skin of her toes, and drew the light of the flickering flames towards her body as she concentrated her mind on her inner warmth.

  The heat within her body grew and stretched out inside her. From the embers that always nestled deep within, the sparks fanned to flames, and the flames grew to a white hot light of being.

  She called to her sisters, on this side and the other, to guide her in her endeavours, to hear her call and answer by granting her the gift of magic to perform her spell. Slowly she raised her arms, her hands reached for the sky and the stars above, taking the elements that Mother Nature offered deep within herself and allowing them free reign within her to fill her with light and power.

  Calling to the Maiden, the Mother and the Crone she called the Moon down and unleashed her spell, slow incantations gently rolling from her lips as she gathered the power within her hands and thrust it towards the house.

  The loud crack split the air around her as the white hot heat started in the basement of the house, a fire that burned with the intensity and speed of the demons breathe itself, twisting and melting everything in its path. Devouring the contents with its ferocity and leaving nothing in its wake as the house was consumed within the lapping flames of a Fae’s vengeance.
