The words sent another wave of desire through me. Will I ever get enough of him?
He took off the rest of my clothes, his eyes hungry on me, taking in every inch of me as if he'd never seen me naked before. Then he spun me around and guided me over to the arm of the couch, bending me over it just like he'd said.
Kaden slid his hands over my sides, and then smacked my ass, hard enough that it stung. I let out a moan and pressed back further. Kaden pushed me so that my front was pressed snug against the arm of the couch, and didn't let me up. I relaxed against his hold, letting him do what he pleased with me. He rewarded me with another light slap, on the other cheek this time, and then before I could even register that, he pushed into me, sliding up to the hilt in one, smooth movement.
He filled me perfectly, and I closed my eyes as he paused, running his hands along my back before pulling out and thrusting back in. I gasped at the angle. It was different than anything we'd done yet, and it hit that spot inside of me that had a deep throb of pleasure building up almost instantly. I wasn't able to move as Kaden rammed into me hard, so hard I was surprised we didn't move the couch.
He drew back out and did it again, fingers gripping on tight to my waist. He tilted my hips up a bit more, and I went pliant, allowing him to move me however he wanted. He slid one hand up my back and wrapped my hair around his fist. He pulled me into a tighter arch, and the pressure on my skull would have hurt under any other circumstance, but I was incredibly turned on by it. Kaden had me baring my throat for him while he pounded into me from behind, each thrust getting impossibly faster and harder.
I turned to look at Kaden as he fucked me, his frame painted in the fading light of the sunset. It highlighted his perfect body, each muscle standing out in stark relief. I reached back and wrapped one of my hands around his arm, holding on for dear life as Kaden continued pounding into me.
He growled and let go of my hips and hair. He picked me up by the thighs, shifting me so that I was tilted even further forward, and slammed back into me harder. I put both of my hands back down onto the couch to steady myself. It drove the head of his cock against that place inside of me with every stroke, and I felt the pressure of a second orgasm begin to build quickly. Kaden was relentless, pounding into me without letting me pause for breath. His rhythm was perfect, and I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to hold out for him, to keep the rising orgasm at bay.
It was no use. Kaden knew exactly what he was doing, and my elbows gave way as another orgasm crashed into me like a ton of bricks. I managed to catch myself on my forearms, and Kaden wasted no time yanking me back into the position he wanted. I was boneless against his relentless, pounding rhythm, clenching around him in an attempt to slow him down throughout my own orgasm. It didn't work, and I gave up the battle, simply letting him do what he wanted.
Kaden growled something that sounded like, "Good girl," which sent another shock wave of pleasure through me. I gasped, and Kaden gripped onto me tighter. His own rhythm was getting more erratic, losing its perfect timing, and I held my breath, anticipation rolling through me with the aftershocks of my own orgasm.
“You feel so fucking good,” he growled. “I would have you like this every day if we had the chance.”
“You can have me as many times as you want. I'm yours. Only yours."
That seemed to be the thing that set Kaden over the edge. He grunted and slammed into me one last time, burying himself as deep as he could go, and spilled himself inside. I closed my eyes, shuddering with pleasure as his cock pulsed again and again and his teeth scraped against my neck.
Finally Kaden let go of my legs, setting me down and slipping out. I collapsed onto the couch, and he climbed over me, pinning me down with his naked body in a way that made me want him all over again. I played with his hair and looked up at him, and then pulled him closer. I let my mouth trail down his neck, finding the same spot where he'd marked me, and then sank my teeth into it. Marking him too.
Mine.
He groaned as I claimed him and his cock immediately sprang back to life. He yanked my legs open and shoved back inside my pussy in a rush. We rocked together, our movements half-feral, our bodies somewhere between human and beast. Then we came again, letting out howls that I knew could probably be heard by many other shifters in the hotel, though neither of us cared.
It didn't matter that the mate bond with Jordan wasn't broken, because Kaden was my true mate, and we both knew it. Nothing could keep us apart—not magic, not time, not even death.
CHAPTER SIXTEEN
The next day passed quickly in a flurry of activity. There were so many things to do that I could hardly keep it all straight in my head. Last night, Kaden had told me that I was speaking like the alpha female of the pack, but being faced with the responsibilities made me have new respect for his coordinating abilities.
To my surprise, most of the Ophiuchus pack shared Kaden's point of view. They didn't want to stay in the city, and grumbled about city wolves and how they couldn't be trusted. Many of them disagreed with Kaden's decision to send the pack here, and I worried there might be another challenge against him, though no one dared to go that far yet.
“Can't we go to the park?” I heard more than once while making my rounds to check on everyone.
After I'd heard it the third time, I went back to Kaden and asked if we could possibly swing that. He'd shaken his head, lips pulled down in a frown. “I'm not a fan of staying here either, but the Libra pack seems to think we're safer here, and after some careful consideration, I agree.”
I heard it from Ethan himself later. “The Sun Witches wouldn't dare attack you here. And neither will the other packs.”
It made sense. Too many humans around, and the added safety of the big building, though that didn't stop Kaden from heading out with Larkin to put down some magical wards around the perimeter.
While he was out doing that, I decided to go check on Jordan. I wanted to make sure he was being securely held, or that's what I told myself, anyway. But maybe he'd talk to me if we were alone. We'd gotten to a point in the past where he had seemed to be open with me, when I'd gained his trust and let him ‘court' me. I wasn't sure if he would ever get to that point again, but if I could even get halfway there, I'd take it.
They were keeping Jordan in one of the basement rooms, right in the middle of where the laundry service would be. I stopped outside of the door, and Jordan's guards melted from the shadows. One of them was Jack. He gave me an appraising look, and asked, “Are you sure you want to see him?”
“Yes,” I said, frowning at him.
He hesitated. “And Kaden is okay with this?”
A wave of frustration rose up in me, quick and vicious, and I bared my teeth at Jack. “I'm the alpha female. I don't need his permission.”
“Technically, you aren't mated, so...” Jack said, shifting on his feet as he met my gaze.
A growl resonated through my chest, surprising even me. Jack held his hands up, dipping his head in subordination, and stepped aside.
I opened the door, glaring at Jack the whole time. Jordan was standing, and pacing back and forth like a caged lion. I'd thought that he was completely unbound for a few heartbeats, but as he moved, a chain clinked at his feet. I followed the coil of thick chain to where it was sunk into the floor. Not even someone with shifter strength would be able to get that loose.
