Kade's Dark Embrace (Immortals of New Orleans) (19 page)

Unable to abstain any longer, he glided his palms up across her belly pulling her toward him until his hard length rested firmly above her bottom. Kade’s hands roamed over her soft breasts, gently caressing them and rolling her nipples between his thumb and forefinger. He moaned in pleasure at the feel of her soft body against his. “Sydney. Oh God. You are so soft, so warm and wet. Do you remember when I told you that you would be mine tonight? I meant it. Are you ready?”

“Yes Kade. I'm more than ready.”

He breathed in deeply trying to resist burying himself in her right there. “I have waited centuries for the right woman, and you are most definitely the one.”

The one? In the heat of the moment, she wanted to believe what he was saying was true, but she couldn’t think clearly, when her senses were so delightfully assaulted. As Kade pinched her nipples, blood rushed to her clitoris. She ached to be touched. She wanted him inside her, now. “Please, Kade, please.” She heard herself begging. She desired him more than any man she’d ever met in her entire life.

Kade continued massaging her breast with one hand as he let his other hand drop down between her legs. She opened her thighs allowing him better access. Sydney screamed his name as he slid his fingers in between her slick center, moving his fingers up and down, exploring every inch of her. As he circled her soft origin of nerves, he slipped a finger inside her. Sydney slumped over resting her head on the tile, panting with desire. “That’s it, Sydney, feel me in you. Let it go. You are a beautiful, amazing woman, my woman.”

As Kade slipped a second finger inside of Sydney, she cried out loud. A crescendo of pleasure built up in her that was about to come crashing down. Kade coaxed her on encouraging her to reach her climax. “Yes, love. Come for me, Sydney. That’s it. Come now.” As he said those words, she felt his fingers stimulating her special spot inside. She couldn’t hold back any longer. Her orgasm crashed over in waves as she trembled at Kade’s hand. She thought she would collapse in the shower except for the fact that Kade turned her in his arms and held onto her tightly.

Reaching over, Kade turned the water off. Sydney protested, “No Kade, don’t leave. Please, make love to me now.”

“Sydney love, I have every intention of doing just that, but I want our first time to be special. I plan to take my time with you slowly, savoring every part of you. Come here...with me.” He wrapped a warm, fluffy towel around her body and patted her down until she was dry. He quickly dried himself and led her into the bedroom.

Sydney’s heart squeezed as she noticed at least two dozen lit candles scattered all over her room. The bedspread had been turned down, and there were rose petals on the sheets. Her vampire was a romantic. No one had ever done something like this for her. Gazing at the candles, Sydney smiled. “Kade...It’s beautiful.”

Smiling back at her, Kade wrapped his hands around her waist drawing her into him so her breasts crushed against his hard chest. “I am glad you like it. Now I intend to show how special you are to me, every last inch of you,” he said suggestively. They both stood naked at the foot of the bed. With reckless abandon, Kade speared his fingers through Sydney’s hair grasping her locks in his hands, and he kissed her. Not a soft kiss, but a hard, demanding, possessive kiss. Sydney welcomed his tongue, tasting him, lost in his dark embrace.

Kade yearned for this woman like no other. He planned to claim her tonight, but knew she was the one claiming his heart. They fell upon the bed together, their arms entangled, reaching, touching. Struggling for dominance, Kade pinned Sydney on her back. He dipped his head down, his mouth seeking her rosy tips. He finally found what he was looking for, laving her peaks and gently biting down. Sydney moaned and arched her back at the erotic pleasure and twinge of pain.

Reaching up, Kade caressed her breasts with his hands as he slowly kissed his way down her stomach. Sydney writhed on the bed in anticipation. She felt a kiss to her hip, a kiss to her thigh, a kiss below her belly button. Kade slowly spread her legs feasting upon the sight of her waxed, bare beauty. He ran a hand down her mound and felt her shiver underneath his touch. He planned to tease her again and pleasure her beyond her wildest dreams. Lowering his head, he kissed along the crease of her legs. Not being able to resist any longer, his tongue ran up and down her lips. He pressed his mouth into the core of her, sucking her tender nub.

Sydney splayed her arms to each side of the bed and grasped the sheets in a tight hold. Her reaction to his mouth on her delicate skin was so intense she thought she would fly off the bed. Colors danced in her head as Kade licked and suckled her sex. Sydney began to beg him again as her body filled with overpowering sensations. “Kade, oh my God. That feels so good. I...I...Please.”
This man has driven me to incoherence.

Kade slowly plunged a finger, then two into her sex while continuing to lick her, concentrating on her soft bundle of nerves. He slipped in and out of her as he drank her luscious essence, bringing her closer and closer to release. He loved hearing her beg and longed to reward her. He gently curved his fingers inside stroking her thin line of sensitive fibers. As he stroked her, he flattened his tongue along her nub pressing down hard, then sucking, tantalizing her over the cliff of arousal.

Sydney convulsed in orgasm as she felt his fingers stroke her while he continued to kiss her sex. Wave after wave of orgasm descended upon her as she screamed Kade’s name over and over. She curled over to her side for a minute, feeling as if every nerve on her skin was on fire. She was exhausted but ready to take Kade inside her. She needed him, in her arms, making love to her. “Kade, that was incredible…Oh my God.”

Kade stalked above her like a hungry panther. Sydney hungered for the feel of his hard, long, lean muscles on her, in her. She reached up and pressed her hands to his ripped abs wishing to lick every bulge. As he rested on his arms above her, she could have sworn she saw his eyes flickering red. Gazing into her hungry eyes, he kissed her gently, their tongues dancing with each other. Loving. Caring. His velvet hardness pressed at her entrance. “Sydney, you are exquisite...I look forward to tasting you over and over through eternity.” 

“Kade, please make love to me. I can’t stand it...I ache for you, please.”

“Are you sure, love? After tonight, there is no going back.”

Sydney quietly nodded. Kade grasped her wrists with one hand, pushed her arms up over her head, and pressed his lips to hers in a passionate kiss. Confident that she was ready for him, he thrust into her core in one primal stroke. Pumping slowly in and out of her, Kade reveled in how wonderful her tight, warm sheath felt around him. He wanted so badly to make it last but was struggling to hold his orgasm at bay. Sydney was finally his. This incredible, strong, resplendent woman beneath him meant everything to him. She provoked an appetite within him that he didn’t know existed. For all of his physical strength, she simply had no idea how much power she wielded over his heart.

Sydney stretched to accommodate Kade’s unbelievably ample size. Allowing Kade to hold her arms above her made it possible for her to give in to her most carnal desire to submit to him. She arched her hips up into him, her clitoris grazing his nest of curls. Shuttering in pleasure with every stroke, Sydney wrapped her legs around his waist pulling him closer.

Kade slowed his pace to look in her eyes. “Sydney, look at me.”

She opened her eyes. “Kade, need more. Please, God, don’t stop.”

“Sydney Willows, you are incredible. Things will never be the same for either one of us after tonight.” Kade’s fangs elongated. He licked the curve of her neck, losing himself in the lusciousness of her warm skin. There was no going back. Kade couldn’t hold on any longer. “Sydney love. You. Are. Mine.” He pulled back his hips and drove into her hard as he bit into the soft flesh of her neck.

Sydney quaked in orgasm as she felt the pinpricks break her skin. Blinded by a bombardment of erotic feelings, she spasmed underneath Kade. No one in her life had ever made her feel like this...awakened, sated, loved.

Sydney’s sweet blood filled his mouth as he continued to pump voraciously into her body, spilling his seed deep within her. Releasing her hands, he rolled onto his back pulling her with him so that he was embracing her closely. Her head rested on his chest. He closed his eyes, overwhelmed by his response to her. Not just her body and blood, but her mind as well. Without a doubt, he knew this woman was the one, and he had just claimed her. Forever.

 
Chapter Fifteen
 

Sydney awakened to the sounds of birds chirping outside. Kade lay unnervingly still next to her. She reached over and stroked the hard lines of his chest, reminiscing about their lovemaking. He kept insisting she was his. What the hell was that supposed to mean to a modern woman like her? And, how many women were his? She knew he’d been around for a very long time, but he’d told her that he’d only loved a few women. Now what?

Sydney’s heart constricted at the thought that there could be anyone else in his life. Then she knew in an instant that meant she was in trouble.
Shit. I am falling in love with him.
No, no, and hell no.
This couldn’t be happening, yet it was. No one in her entire life had made her feel the way she did last night: wicked, euphoric, loved. That was it...loved. Did he love her? Is that what he meant when he kept saying she belonged to him?

Eventually they would need to talk about what this all meant. How was she supposed to have a relationship with a vampire? First, there were location issues. She lived in Philadelphia, he lived in New Orleans. She had a job, commitments to the children’s center. Second, he would totally outlive her. She’d be an old woman, and he’d still be looking like he stepped off the cover of GQ. Third...third? Why was she even running through these scenarios? She wasn’t even sure he was serious about her. For all she knew, being 'his' meant he thought she was one of many women.
A harem? A bloody vampire harem. Stop worrying, Syd!

Needing to clear her head, she tiptoed away from the bed into the shower. A nice, hot shower would make everything okay. Damn, she really was falling in love with him. An ache started to grow in her chest as she stepped under the hot spray.
Nice job, Sydney. You are falling in love with a vampire. A sexy, hot, romantic vampire.
Shaking her head in disbelief, she quickly washed her hair, soaped her skin, rinsed, hopped out of the shower, and dried herself.

When she opened the door, the bed was sadly empty. Where did he go? Feeling a sense of loss, she got dressed and avoided looking at the bed where they had made love. Hearing a familiar buzzing, she frantically searched for her cell phone.
Why can’t I be more organized?
Finding it in a pile of clothes, she answered the call, “Hey.” It was all she could manage amid her confusing thoughts.

“Hey to you too. It’s Tristan. I got down early this morning. I’m staying at my brother’s condo on Royal Street. How about you grab a taxi and meet me for beignets?”

“Now, that's what the doctor ordered. You’ve got my weapons?” Sydney felt as if she was suffocating in the guest room. A little time away from vampires would be good for her.

“Sure thing, I packed them up in a backpack so no one will notice. It's about four o’clock now. Can you get down here by four-thirty?” he asked.

“Yes, sounds great. Meet you there. Thanks Tris!” Sydney sighed, clicking off her cell. She and Kade would have to talk later, but for now, it was back to reality. Sydney desperately wanted her weapons, especially after last night’s incident with the vampire in the hallway.

Feeling girly after a night of decadent sex, Sydney slid on a flirty, purple sundress and adjusted the thin straps that supported her C cupped breasts. She slipped on a sexy, black, lace thong on the off chance she’d get surprised by Kade later. Thank goodness, she was able to find a pair of comfortable sandals on her shopping trip the other day. Comfort was a must for running around in the city. Glancing in the mirror, she pulled her long, blonde hair into a ponytail and added pink, shimmer lip-gloss. She almost left the room without grabbing her silver knife. With nowhere to conceal it on her body, she quickly slid it into her purse on her way out of her room.

Walking through the house, she noticed it was quiet, too quiet. Nothing but silence filled the great room. Where did Kade get off to now? She steeled her emotions, afraid that he might not be serious about her. What man leaves a woman’s bed while she’s in the shower? Wet? Naked? Sydney peeked down the long hallway past the kitchen, time to explore. Sydney heard Kade’s voice coming from one of the rooms. Even though the door was cracked open, she didn’t want to intrude on his business. But then again, why the hell not? He did leave her bedroom after the most fabulous night of making love, ever.

Brimming with confidence, Sydney swung the door open and leaned against the doorjamb. With a hand on her hip, she watched Kade intently. Did the man ever stop working? He leaned back in a black, leather chair with his feet on an antique, cherry, Victorian flat-topped desk. She noticed the desk was in excellent original condition,
nice desk
...a picture formed in her mind of her bent over the desk, with Kade taking her from behind. She gave him a wicked smile. He smiled back, blew her a kiss and waved, but kept on conversing about Issacson’s company investments while she stood there waiting for him to get off the phone. God, that man was sexy as hell...but infuriating. He wasn’t hanging up the phone for her, really? Sydney, sorely lacking patience, innocently waved again, turned on her heels, and trudged back toward the kitchen. Screw that, okay, a note. If he couldn’t get off the freakin’ phone, then the man was getting a note.

She quickly scrawled a note letting him know she was going to meet Tristan for beignets and that she’d be back in a couple of hours. Convinced that Kade wasn’t getting off the phone any time soon, she taped it to the inside of the front door. Patience wasn’t her strong suit, but at least she let him know where she went. Sydney loved New Orleans and was hoping she’d get a chance to window shop for antiques on Royal Street on her way back. She really wanted to go over and check out the address they got last night, but she knew that the other vampires wouldn’t be at full strength until sunset. And after last night, she had no intentions of going to the address by herself without backup.
