“I still don’t see why we can’t wait until after the baby comes.”
Serena lay in Connor’s arms, his hand on the small swell of her stomach. One of his favourite pastimes lately was feeling the heat emanating from the baby dragon growing inside her.
“And when our son is born we would not want to leave him. I cannot wait too long before we go to Spellholm, Serena. Time is not our friend.”
“We have all the time we need. It is more important to me that our son arrives healthy. And safely. You don’t know these other dragons. What if they’re not trustworthy?”
“I have to try.”
“Why? You say it’s so that our son is not alone. But he is inside me growing, he is going to be born whether he is the last dragon or not.”
He looked at her face, and she tried to conceal her worry, she hated them arguing like this. His had already made up his mind; they were to leave this evening. This was, possibly, the last time they would lie together in their bed for months. Serena didn’t want their last morning here to be filled with cross words. Memories of good times should always overshadow bad. She wanted this memory to be more than good.
“Make love to me, Connor.”
He smiled, and her heart tightened. She loved him beyond anything she thought possible. The trip to Spellholm made her fear for him and their child. Fear that she would lose everything they had fought so hard to achieve.
Why couldn’t they stay here? Or go somewhere safe, away from people, away from other dragons? She knew it couldn’t be that way, but she couldn’t stop herself wishing.
He stroked her face. Cupping his large warm hand against her cheek, he moved so his lips were tantalisingly close to hers. However, before he pressed them softly to hers, he said, “It will be alright. I will not let anything happen to you or our child.”
“I know, Connor. I know.” She closed her eyes, and lost herself to his lips, his tongue, and the feelings he stirred deep inside her. They were made for each other, true mates. Nothing could break that.
Or so she hoped with every fibre of her being.
He slipped his hand over her naked body, stroking her skin, igniting the flame of desire that was for him alone. There would never be another man, or dragon, for her. She belonged to him, her body was his, and her soul.
Serena wanted to feel his arousal. To know that he reciprocated everything she felt, every thought, every feeling. Sliding her hand down over his chest, she touched his nipples, and then stroked his stomach. He tensed with the anticipation of her touch, as it continued lower. His hips rose, his cock thrusting into her hand, eager to feel her soft palm and light touch.
She had learned what he liked. Mastering the art of giving him pleasure. She wanted to please him, so that he would never compare her to any other woman. For he had slept with many over the centuries he had lived. It was the one thing that pained her. The thought of all those that had gone before, and all those that would be his after she had gone. For that was their fate. He would go on living forever, while she would grow old and decay before his eyes.
She blinked back tears, trying not to think of the son who would be barely grown before she passed into memory. This moment was a chance for them to celebrate their love, not mourn it.
Resolutely, as she had many times before, she pushed bad thoughts from her head. Instead, she gave herself over to him, and his masterful hands. And, oh, were they masterful.
His fingers tweaked her nipples, rolling them between his finger and thumb. She writhed against him as he exerted just the right amount of pain to make her gasp against his mouth. Serena had experienced so much pain in her life, but Connor made this so enjoyable. An exquisite pleasure in his masterful hands.
When she could bear it no longer, he used his warm wet mouth to suck her nipples until she thought she would explode. His fingers then turned their attention to the core of her desire. Slipping inside her heated sex, plunging deep before pulling out. Always finding that spot inside her, which sent her wild.
She grabbed at his hand and pressed herself down onto him. So close to coming, this was a taste of what he had in mind for her. If he took the edge off her arousal, when he made love to her, she would be able to match his stamina and strength. Her stomach clenched in anticipation, and longing.
As her body arched in pleasure, her hand continued to stroke his cock. Squeezing it while her orgasm crested, making him groan against her. Somehow, she managed to concentrate enough of her mind on his release. A hard task when all it wanted to do was drown in the tide of pleasure sweeping over her.
He was so close to coming. His fingers plunged into her sex, harder, rougher, his body tensing, and then he came. Her hand worked to drive him to the point when his control finally slipped and he cried out. His body jerking as his thick seed erupted into her hand.
She smiled to herself. Who would have thought a woman like her could bring a mighty dragon to his knees? However, with each passing day, she learned that his need for her matched her own for him. She was not something to be pitied, to be humoured. Serena was his match, and she meant to make sure she always honoured that role.
Slipping from the bed, she went to the bathroom and washed her hands. The cool air making her nipples hard points. While inside her the flame of their child burned, reminding her of the new life their love had made. Not wanting to waste a second of this precious day together, she headed back to the bedroom. He lay propped up on the pillow, waiting for her.
He smiled, and her heart melted. She stood still, taking in every bit of his love and desire for her. Storing it deep inside her, in a place that no one could ever touch.
However, a sense of foreboding sent a ripple of fear through her. With the moment broken, she placed her hand protectively over her stomach, dreading what lay before them.
“Are you going to stand there teasing me, or are you coming back to bed?”
She didn’t hesitate, she went to him, and fell into his arms. Her lips met his, and he gripped her hips and manoeuvred her on top of him.
“Connor, I...”
“Serena, I want you to take control, to show me what you want, what you like.”
She blushed, feeling ridiculous. After everything they had shared, she should feel no shame in expressing her need. However, for so long she had been denied this, and it remained a reaction she needed to conquer.
He slipped a finger inside her, and she moved her hips. His thumb pressed against her clit, and she gasped, placing her hands on his shoulders.
“You like that. Now I want you to mount me. To ride me, so that when we fly to Spellholm tonight, that is all you will think about. You can imagine me inside you as you straddle me.”
“Connor!” she said, shocked. “Tara will be with us.”
“All the more reason to have something to preoccupy your mind.”
His hands went to her hips, and he lifted her up off his body. Looking down, Serena saw his hard erect cock, and the temptation to experience him in this way was too much. Her hand curled around him, and she guided him towards her sex. Slowly, she pressed herself against the head of his cock. Her slick juices lubricating his hardness.
When her eyes flicked up to his, she saw him watching her face. Connecting with him so intensely, their gaze did not break while he lowered her down, and she took him inside. Slowly, he filled her. His face changed to something resembling a grimace, as he fought for control. His hips lifted off the bed, and she knew he needed to be inside her as quickly as possible. He wanted to feel her moist heat around him, but he slowed for her.
The friction of skin against skin was exquisite. Inch by inch she took him, until her knees rested in the bed either side of him. His hands did nothing more than guide her, as she started to rock slowly, in a rhythm that would bring them to a shuddering climax.
Placing her hands on his chest, she stroked his skin, feeling the prickle of the hairs on his chest while she teased his nipples. He bit his lower lip, and his hips bucked hard, pressing himself impossibly deep inside her. Serena circled her hips, giving him maxim friction against her inner walls.
Being in control was better than she could imagine. If she needed to move faster, she did. If she wanted to stop, and let her inner muscles flex against his hardness, then she did, despite him fighting to move under her. She was in control, and he needed to learn obedience. So when he tried to take control again, she lifted herself off him so that only the tip of his cock was inside her. He lifted his hips to bury himself deeper, and she rose higher.
Raising her eyebrow at him, he got the message. With something resembling a smile, he relaxed back into the bed, and left her to play. Serena rose and fell, circling her hips, rocking backwards and forwards, anything to try to ease the ache inside her. But it grew, until she felt her orgasm rapidly approaching. She needed something more though to push her over the edge.
Connor lay still, unmoving. Unusual, he normally sensed her need to be touched, and then she figured it out. He was giving her exactly what she wanted, freedom. Well she didn't like this so much after all.
“Touch me,” she said.
“I thought you wanted me to lie back and think of England.”
“Don't be so childish.”
“I am not a child.”
“Show me.”
He placed his hand on the small of her back, and keeping her balanced, sat up so she now sat in his lap. Then he claimed her breasts with his mouth, his tongue rolling over them. She flung her head back and closed her eyes, allowing him to do as he pleased. With each hard suck of his talented mouth, jolts of electricity shot through her, making her ride him harder.
