bedroom.
Raven bid a teary-eyed Trisha goodnight and
walked with the prince down a series of halls to a room that
was rich, opulent, and definitely not a guest room.
"This is your room," Raven said, confident he was
right.
Kaemon gave him an uncertain look. "Did I
misunderstand? Would you rather sleep alone?"
Raven looked at the tall, gorgeous man before him
and tried not to drool. Most men didn't find that a turn-on.
Giving in to the passion sparking his senses, Raven sidled
up to the prince and slid his hands up the other man's broad
chest, feeling the crisp fabric of Kaemon's shirt beneath his
palms. He could feel the thunderous beating of Kaemon's
heart through the expensive fabric.
"I'd rather not sleep at all," he purred, giving the
prince his best seductive look.

A low growl rolled up Kaemon's throat. The prince
wrapped his hands around Raven's hips and lifted him clear
of the ground. With a laugh, Raven wrapped his long legs
around the prince's waist. He loved a man who knew how
to take charge.
One of the Kaemon's hands cupped Raven's ass,
holding him firmly in place; the other hand gripped Raven's
hair. With a firm hold, Kaemon took Raven's mouth in a
passionate kiss. Heat poured through him like an inferno of
need. Raven felt the prince's growl vibrate against his lips.
Sexy man.
Raven moaned his response to the kiss. If he weren't
so into the prince's embrace, he'd be embarrassed at how
easily he spread his legs for the sexy dragonkin, but then no
one had ever accused him of being a shy virgin even when
he was a virgin.
The prince tore his mouth away from Raven's, his
eyes glowing pure gold. "If you don't want to be mine, say
it now before I throw you on the bed and fuck you."
Raven's lust-fogged head only focused on the words
"fuck you", and he gave the only response he could to that
statement.
"Please."
He wasn't above begging for what he wanted.
"Anything for you, my sweet," the prince said.

Before Raven could get his bearings, he was tossed
onto the soft bedding and ruthlessly stripped of his clothes.
Kaemon stood at the foot of the bed and stared.
Raven squirmed uncomfortably under those hot, gold eyes,
yearning for more physical contact. "I'm not just for
looking at, you know. Touching is so much better."
* * * *
Kaemon couldn't stop staring at the man. In all his
life he'd never seen anyone finer than the man on his bed.
Never.
Raven had a lean and muscular dancer's build with
ripped abs and a tight ass. Beneath Kaemon's avid gaze,
Raven's long cock lengthened and hardened.
Kaemon's mouth watered. Cock sucking wasn't his
favorite pastime. As a prince, generally he was the one
being sucked, but for Raven, he was willing to make an
exception. Hell, for Raven, he was willing to make all
kinds of exceptions.
The desire to taste the dancer tore at him like
dragon claws. Without conscious thought, the prince sank
to his knees and pulled Raven forward until his legs
dangled over the bed and he had Raven's long cock lined up
in the perfect position. Satisfied he could get good access
without contorting himself in unnatural positions, Kaemon
wrapped his mouth around his lover's cock and started
30
Mate Dance
Amber Kell
sucking on it like it was his new favorite candy.
Raven's unique flavor, both bitter and sweet, slid
across Kaemon's tongue. The more he sucked the more he
craved. Swallowing his lover's cock, he gripped Raven's
hips tighter when the dancer started to squirm.
"Fuck me," Raven demanded.
Kaemon pulled off. "Quit squirming. When I get
my taste, you can be fucked. Now give it up."
The look of shock on the dancer's face… was
priceless.
Kaemon went back to worshipping the dancer's
cock, enjoying the taste and feel of the spongy head in his
mouth and testing how far down he could go before his gag
reflex kicked in. He knew with practice he'd be able to take
the entire length, but right now, he satisfied himself with
going halfway and using his hand to make up the
difference.
"Get up on the bed."
Raven scrambled backwards. He started rolling
over, but Kaemon stopped him.
"I want to see your face."
He only got one first time, and he wanted to see the
dancer's expression when he entered Raven. His dragon
half shifted restlessly, wanting the dancer with a ferocity
he'd never experienced before. A low growl vibrated his
31
Mate Dance
Amber Kell
chest, and it took all of his strength to keep his fingers from
shifting to claws.
Mate.
The word drifted through his mind. Kaemon jerked
back, his heart pounding in his chest. His mate! It explained
his obsession with the dancer. He'd seen and slept with
many beautiful men in his lifetime, but Raven eclipsed
them all. From the sexy stubble lining his cheek to his short
hair that felt like little silky spikes beneath his fingers. The
entire package drove him insane.
A wide smile crossed Kaemon's face as joy filled
him. He'd never thought to find his mate. So many men had
come and gone he'd given up looking. His father had never
found his mate but settled for Kaemon's mother instead.
Kaemon had always thought he'd end up settling. Instead,
he'd found his miracle.
The object of his adoration frowned at him.
"Is there a problem?"
Kaemon debated on sharing the news but decided it
was better to tell him later. Much later.
Kaemon sucked two of his fingers into his mouth
and got them nice and wet before circling Raven's tight
pucker, teasing the flesh with his fingers.
He rolled Raven's balls, tugging gently before
gripping his cock again.

"Just fuck me!" Raven demanded.
Kaemon smiled. "Not without the oil. Side table."
Raven scrambled to pull out the drawer and
removed a small vial. Holding it up, he handed it over at
Kaemon's nod.
Popping off the small cork, Kaemon poured the
lubricating oil over his fingers, making sure they were slick
before pressing them inside Raven's hot, tight ass. As he
scissored his fingers in and out of his lover's constricting
hole, he swallowed Raven's cock.
Minutes later a strangled scream heralded the
welcoming gush of liquid. The prince gratefully swallowed
all of the dancer's release, feeling an odd rush of pride at
making his mate lose control.
After a few more sucks, he let Raven's cock slide
from his mouth. Looking up, he saw Raven's beautiful face
showed a nice afterglow and his eyes were heavy with
desire.
"Ready for your fucking?"
"Yeah." Raven's voice barely rose above a whisper,
but the prince heard him fine.
There was something incredibly intimate about
fucking eye-to-eye that made him realize all those other
lovers had been just practice… for Raven.
Sliding Raven farther up the bed, Kaemon pushed
33
Mate Dance
Amber Kell
until his lover was high enough he could get good traction,
but not so high Raven might bang his head on the
headboard.
Kaemon didn't want to do anything to cause the
stunning dancer even a minute of discomfort. Nothing but
good memories should exist between them. Many, many
good memories because he had no plans of letting Raven
go anywhere anytime soon.
Carefully pushing inside Raven, Kaemon searched
his face for any signs of discomfort. When he was fully
seated, he waited.
"What are you doing?" Raven's blue eyes widened
with astonishment.
"I wanted to make sure you were ready."
Raven wiggled beneath him. "If I was any more
ready, I'd be coming again. Now fuck me like you mean it."
Smiling, Kaemon leaned over and kissed his mate.
"Wrap your legs around me and hold on for the ride of your
life."
Raven smiled back as he lifted his hips and wrapped
those long dancer's legs around him. "Now show me what
you've got."

Raven woke up sweaty and sore. Pinned in
Kaemon's arms like a human-sized teddy bear, he couldn't
move. Their bodies lay spooned together from torso to heel,
Raven's back to Kaemon's front, nesting together like they
were created for that sole purpose. As Raven had never
been the type to cuddle before, his current predicament felt
more intimate than sex.
Through the window he could see the darkness
outside. His nap must've been shorter than he thought.
Tenderness filled him, a foolishness he couldn't give in to.
No future existed between a dancer and a prince. This
wasn't some sappy fairy tale where the royal fell in love
with the commoner and they lived happily ever after. He
didn't dare hope Kaemon sought more than one shared
night of passion.
A soft kiss to the back of his neck sent shivers down
his spine and made his traitorous cock stand at attention.
Didn't it know Raven was still tired?
"Hello, lover," Kaemon whispered in Raven's ear in
a sleep-roughened voice. The hot words of affection made
his body hard with need. He gasped when Kaemon reached
around and wrapped his fingers around Raven's shaft.
"Oh just like that." The man definitely knew what
he was doing. Raven instinctively ground his ass against
the hard rod pressed between his butt cheeks and poking
35
Mate Dance
Amber Kell
him in the back.
"Are you sore?" Kaemon asked in a concerned
voice. The prince stroked Raven with his large warm
hands, sending tiny explosions of pleasure down to the
dancer's toes.
"A little," Raven admitted, feeling a blush spread
across his face.
With a careful touch, the prince rolled Raven over.
Kaemon touched Raven's face, his gold eyes
looking at Raven with a tenderness the other man couldn't
possibly feel. "Don't be embarrassed. There's no shame in
feeling a little sore after the loving I gave you." The prince
flashed him a wicked smile as those damned hands
caressed down his bare back, pulling a moan from him. In
that moment he would've agreed to anything.
A bite to his neck pulled a moan from his chest.
"Want to fuck me?" The prince's voice should be
bottled and sold as an aphrodisiac. His rich velvety tones
could get Raven to agree to just about anything.
"Uh," was his intelligent contribution as his
thoughts scattered like fall leaves. The prince was like his
personal storm, blowing away all thoughts from his head
and sending bolts of lightning through his body.
"But there are all kinds of other things we can do.
Delicious things." The prince rolled Raven fully onto his
36
Mate Dance
Amber Kell
back and moved to support himself on his arms, covering
Raven's body with his large frame. His handsome face
beamed as he took in Raven's appearance. "You have no
idea how long I've dreamed of having you at my mercy."
"Since we just met last night, it can't have been that
long," Raven said, returning the smile.
"Oh, you have no idea." He placed soft kisses on
Raven's mouth, his chin, each cheek and then pressed a
string of kisses down Raven's chest. Kaemon's soft lips sent
shivers down Raven's spine and darts of need straight to his
cock. "I've dreamed of finding my mate for years."
An itching sensation tickled up Raven's spine, but
he was too busy feeling the heat of the sexy man above him
to worry too much about a twitchy back.
"Mate?" Hell, they were having sex. Raven didn't
think they needed to exchange rings or anything. The look
in Kaemon's eyes told him he'd better not say any of the
many smartass comments running through his head.
Whatever
mates
meant to the prince, he took it seriously.
Kaemon kissed Raven, damn near melting his spine.
"Dragonkin only get one mate. You are mine!"
Oh hell.
When Raven had said he needed a change in his
life, he hadn't meant to become a dragonkin mate. He'd
have to ask for more information in the morning. Right
37

now thinking took too much effort.
"Suck me, Kaemon," Raven demanded. He couldn't
stand the gentle kisses any longer. If the prince didn't do
something soon, he wouldn't be responsible for his actions.
