17. Kai

I was standing at the sink with warm water running over my hands, but they were sweating.

A prickling sensation crept over my skin as it did whenever Gideon was close by.

“Time for bed.” He was so close, his warm breath billowed over my skin.

“Ummm.” I cleared my throat. “Would you like tea?”

“Oh, Kai, I would. So very much. I’ve been waiting for you to say yes.”

Huh? This guy must have a thing for tea. Weird. I swung around. He had a wide grin plastered on his face, and he extended a hand to my hip. I studied it, figuring I must not have read up on the tea ritual here in Tarrin. Not that I was complaining.

“Peppermint?”

His smile faded.

“Orange blossom?”

His face reddened, and he removed his hand. “Tea? You said tea.” He lowered his voice. “Forgive me. I thought you said me.”

Me? I asked if he wanted a hot drink, and he mistakenly thought I said me, not tea.

When I arrived in Martslock, I’d often wished to rewind time so I’d be happier or less confused. But since falling for Dante, I’d done that less and less. Now, I begged the universe to go back, just a minute, and I’d agree. Me. Yes, he could have me.

Being human, I experienced a twinge of guilt because of Dante, even though he was more than okay with me, with us, having Gideon in our lives. But I would’ve preferred that he was here so I could tell him. Or maybe… maybe… he could have watched.

“You could.” I studied my toes. In the coming months, the baby would grow so big, I wouldn’t see my feet until after the birth.

“Have tea?” He sounded hopeful. Perhaps.

“Me.” My voice was low enough that only a shifter could hear it.

Gideon lifted my chin, and I couldn’t avoid his gaze. His eyes were… hungry. We’d eaten, so I hoped he was greedy not for more food but for… me.

His other hand moved over my hip, caressed my bump, and then slid between my legs. I gasped. My cock was semi-hard, but as he fondled it, blood flowed into it, making it hard as a freaking rock.

No more wasted time. I wanted this alpha’s dick in me. I undid my paternity pants, and they puddled at my feet.

“Kai!” His eyes were no longer on my face. “Kai!”

“Yeah.” I was so enjoying his reaction I leaned on the sink and shoved my hips forward.

“You’re not wearing underwear.”

“Oh nos!” I stuck a finger in my mouth. “Is that a crime in Tarrin? Naughty me.” After kicking off my pants, me and my hard cock toddled into the bedroom. I tossed off my shirt and lay on the bed, my legs spreadeagled. Gideon followed, his mouth so wide if I hadn’t been pregnant, I’d have pushed him onto the bed and stuck my dick in it.

“You’re so beautiful.” Gideon took his time removing his clothes.

“I’m so wet.” I licked around my mouth. “And your cock is…” Oh shit. He was freaking huge. Maybe bigger than Dante. “Big.” I gulped, glad I had more than enough slick so he could slide right in.

Gideon kneeled on the mattress, his huge length dangling between his legs, the tip brushing over the bedding. He crawled toward me as my chest heaved, anticipating him being inside me.

“I’m going to ride you.” I tapped my belly. “It’s more comfortable.”

He flopped onto the bed, but his dick didn’t flap or flop, it remained rigid, and it was all mine—or it soon would be.

“Help me.” I extended both hands, and he grabbed them as I straddled him, swaying my ass so the slick flesh coated his cock.

His nostrils flared as he let go of one hand. “Your hole. It’s small and tight, right?”

“You’ll see for yourself.” I rubbed my ass over his shaft, enjoying his breath speeding up and color spreading over his cheeks. When I was done teasing him, I told Gideon to grab his cock.

“You ready?” My raspy voice was barely loud enough for even a shifter to hear.

With my knees pressed into his sides, I lowered my butt, his cock sliding in until he was buried deep inside me. Gods, I took him all the way in. How was that possible? I paused, getting used to him filling and stretching me. It was a lot, but oh, so good.

Gideon moved both hands to my hips, his fingers pressing into my soft flesh, not hurting but teetering on the edge between pleasure and pain.

“Kai, I was wrong. Your hole and your channel are smaller and tighter than I imagined. ” He angled his hips so his cock pushed farther inside me. Desire forced my eyes closed, and surrounded by darkness, I concentrated on Gideon’s dick in me.

Sweat dotted my upper lip and dribbled onto my mouth and chest. I licked the salty liquid as I wriggled my butt, and both of us moaned. My fingers raced over his skin as heated blood hummed in my veins.

The distant sounds of Martslock traffic formed a background as I heaved myself up and opened my eyes, wanting to see Gideon as I plunged downward onto his length. Only the tip of his dick remained inside me as I hesitated just a tad before falling onto him.

“Gods, Kai,” he gasped. “Warn me next time.” He gulped huge mouthfuls of air when I raised myself up, his eyes fixed on his cock. I slid a finger over his dick, coated it in my slick and licked it.

Gideon’s eyes darted from between my legs to my mouth and back. I loved that he didn’t know where to look.

“Warning!” But a second later, I took all of his big, beautiful cock into my channel and sniggered when he hissed. He took my hand and licked off the remaining slick.

“Help me up.” Lifting me and the bump was an effort.

He gripped both my hands and hauled me up, only to have me sit on him again.

“Kai, I’ll come if you do that.”

I leaned forward, my cock pressing on his damp skin. “Isn’t that the point?”

“But I want this to last… forever.” The final word was so quiet I almost didn’t catch it. Gideon took hold of my length with one hand while helping me up with the other. He pumped my cock so I was being pummeled by a multitude of sensations.

Desire surged through my veins each time I took his cock inside me. Slick glided from my hole, down my thighs, and pooled on Gideon’s skin, coating my butt each time I took him in.

His breathing sped up and his eyes fluttered closed. His hand circled my length and pumped in time to his dick claiming my ass. A gripping sensation built in my tummy, and my body shuddered, desire threading through me. I hauled in a deep breath and paused, arching my back and enjoying the climax that was threatening to claim me.

I clawed at Gideon’s skin when the orgasm rippled through my body before building to a wave of pure pleasure. Cum spurted from my cock, and Gideon groaned, his hand clenching around my cock as he came, his knot filling me so completely.
