The Bride Hunt: Lightning Dragon Part 15

She nodded, looking really afraid. "I think it would be better if we went back. There would be safety in numbers."

"I don't want to run or to hide. I need this to be over. Besides, I want to spend a bit more time with you before we have to face reality."

"I'm sure they'll understand. Blaze is about to become a father. He's also in love ... I mean, he's in love." Her smile looked like it was fixed on her face. All the color drained from her face.

Also. She'd said also.

Thunder wanted to hug her, kiss her, agree wholeheartedly with her but his female wasn't ready to admit her feelings yet. It didn't matter that she'd let it slip, that he knew deep down she felt the same way he did. She wasn't ready for such a major confession. There was still a part of her that was afraid. She'd only just agreed to date him. To giving them a chance. As much as he wanted to say something, he didn't. "I don't think Blaze being in love and mated will help. He's a tough son of a b.i.t.c.h. He is strictly by the book. I've never known him to bend a single rule."

Tammy started to say something but stopped herself. "You might be pleasantly surprised."

"I hope so." He tucked some loose strands of hair behind her ear. "I really f.u.c.king hope so. I'm not looking forward to going up against him, or punching him in the mouth, but I will if I have to."

She visibly relaxed. "I'm going to bathe in the river."

"The river gets deep quickly and there are vicious undercurrents. Let me find a spot for you. I'll be back in a minute." He dropped a kiss on her mouth before standing up. Thunder took a short walk up the bank until he found an alcove.

He made his way back, almost falling on his a.s.s when he spotted her. Her legs were long for a human. Her t-shirt stopped just below her a.s.s. Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s were outlined against the thin fabric. He was so far gone it was scary.

Her gaze immediately zoned in on his c.o.c.k. Tammy was the most responsive female he'd ever f.u.c.ked.

f.u.c.ked ... with her even f.u.c.king wasn't really f.u.c.king. He still felt it deep. His thoughts drifted to the night before. The first time had been f.u.c.king, the second was making love, the third was definitely f.u.c.king. Once Tammy got onto all fours, it was game over for him. If he hadn't strummed her c.l.i.t he would've come before her and that wasn't acceptable. The fourth was so slow and sweet, he'd worshipped her body. He'd drawn out her pleasure for a very long time. She was shaking when he finally let her fall apart.

He was afraid she might be feeling a bit tender this morning. He hoped to G.o.d he was wrong. By the greedy look in her eye, he was feeling more hopeful by the second.

"I'll wash your back," he murmured, his d.i.c.k hardening up some more at the thought.

She gave a gentle shake of the head. "You're incorrigible. I'm sure you will."

"It's so you don't wash away in the current."

"If you say so."

"I mean it." He took hold of her hand. "I found a safer spot, just up this way," he paused for a moment and then sniffed at the air. No sign of Cloud.

The trees were enormous. They thinned out closer to the river. The gra.s.s was about knee high. There were plants here and there between the gra.s.s, they had the most beautiful purple flowers. Every so often, a plant with a red flower peeked up above the undergrowth.

They stuck to the bank, which was strewn with pebbles. The actual river bed looked like it was made up of them. The water was clear as crystal. "It's so beautiful out here. It's not as cold though. The weather is milder somehow." She frowned.

"Yeah, you're right. We're in Water territory. The Air kingdom is higher up in the mountains. It's colder up there." They continued to walk.

"I've always liked winter. There's something about the snow and the chill in the air. I love how your breath fogs, and sitting by the fire."

"Don't forget toasting marshmallows and cuddling up to your lover."

She knocked her shoulder against his. "Sounds good to me."

"The air might be warmer but the water is freezing cold." He stopped walking and pointed to the alcove. "We're here."

"It doesn't look all that cold but I know it is." She smiled. "I may not have gotten all the way in but I washed in there yesterday, remember?"

He gave a nod.

"In and out." She slapped her hands together. "I can wash quickly."

He made a sound of affirmation. "We don't have any towels though but I'm sure we can make a plan."

She liked the sound of that. "I'm sure we can." She'd never been with someone as skilled as Thunder. He knew exactly what he was doing. She realized that it probably meant that he had been with a ton of other women, but it wasn't something she wanted to dwell on.

"Oh, we'll make a plan alright ..." he didn't finish his sentence because she'd pulled the t-shirt over her head. His eyes zoned in on her b.o.o.bs. He seemed to study them with such intensity. Don't cover up. He's seen you naked. He's been inside you. Stop being an idiot. Then he dropped his gaze down to her belly and to the overgrown landing strip between her legs before moving back to her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. He growled, seeming to like what he saw. Maybe. She hoped. Oh G.o.d!

Tammy knew it was stupid but she used an arm to cover her b.o.o.bs anyway. She felt like an idiot but couldn't help herself. A guy like him had to be used to perfect women. "They're not as perky as they were. My best a.s.set and they're ..."

"f.u.c.king amazing. I could stare at them all day."

She shook her head, feeling more self-conscious than ever before. It wasn't like her. She normally didn't care about such trivial things ... But look at him. Just look. The guy was gorgeous. Beyond hot. "I wish. You shouldn't be able to hold a pencil under your b.o.o.bs." She lifted one of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, dropping it again. Oh flip, her b.o.o.b actually wobbled like jelly.

"f.u.c.king amazing!" He seemed to really mean it but maybe he was just being nice.

"Stop saying that. I could probably smuggle an entire pencil case under these babies."

"They're soft." He cupped them. "So d.a.m.ned soft," his voice croaked. "I love how they move when I'm inside of you. They'd look fantastic around my d.i.c.k." She swallowed hard, feeling a zing between her legs. Another one deep inside her.

"So responsive. You like the sound of that?"

"I like your dirty talk. I always thought it would turn me off, I was so wrong." Oh so very wrong. It turned her on in a big way.

"You've never had a guy tell you like it is before? Open and honest?"

"Raw and uncut?"

He grinned at her. "Yeah, raw and uncut."

"I guess not, but I like it."

"Good because there's a lot more where that came from." He gripped her waist and ushered her backwards a few steps. "How about, when we're done bathing."

"Yeah." His eyes looked like they darkened, her own breathing definitely picked up a few notches. She couldn't believe how ready she was for another round.

"I'll lick you dry." He walked her backwards a few more steps, until her feet hit the edge of the water. She sucked in a sharp breath. "Told you it was cold. I have a feeling that your p.u.s.s.y is going to be extra wet for me, despite the frigid temperature. It'll be in need of a ton of licking."

Her heartrate picked up. "Oh really now?" She raised her brows. He was going to go down on her? Chris had never gone down on her.

"Yeah, really. I have a feeling I'm going to love the taste of your wet p.u.s.s.y."

Holy h.e.l.l! Holy freaking h.e.l.l. All of a sudden, she felt really hot and a lot wet. He walked her backwards and her eyes widened as the water rose on her legs. Maybe not so hot after all.

He winked at her. "It's better to get it over with." Thunder let her go and dove in. It didn't seem to affect him at all.

He surfaced and swiped his hair back. "Come on." He opened his arms.

Tammy had her arms around herself. She gave a nod and slid in. It felt like the air froze inside her for a moment and then she yelled. "Oh my G.o.d, it's freezing!" Tammy estimated that she would only be able to handle this temperature for a minute or two and got to work. She dropped below the surface of the water. Her hands worked frantically, rubbing her scalp. She groaned as she resurfaced.

Thunder was back under, she couldn't see him. She washed all over, breathing like she was in a Lamaze cla.s.s. The water was just that cold.

His arms banded around her and he surfaced in front of her. "Better?"

"Much." Her teeth were chattering and her nipples were freezing off.

He pulled her close, his heat warming her.

"Put your legs around me and hold on," he whispered into her ear, making her shiver and this time not from the cold.

She did as he said. Thunder was rock hard against her. Tammy pushed her chest against him, sighing as more of his heat bled into her. "You're not cold at all, are you?"

He walked out of the river. "Not even a little bit." His hands were on her a.s.s. He paused, seeming to scout the area. She'd noticed that he did that a lot. He was probably keeping an eye out for Cloud. Then he turned his gorgeous eyes onto her and she couldn't think of anything but him. "Are you okay?"

She liked how concerned and careful he was with her. Always checking to make sure she was happy. "I'm great." Even though she was wet, she was warm.

"Good." He walked for a few beats before putting her down on a mossy patch under one of the enormous trees. It was soft against her back, reminding her of the bed he had made for them last night. The snuggling had been amazing. Even though she'd only worn her t-shirt, she hadn't been cold at all.

Thunder stayed between her legs. "You're so wet." His eyes tracked her body. Droplets clung to every inch of her. Just like they did to him. His hair was sopping. Even his eye lashes held droplets of moisture. In short, he was so incredibly hot. By the way he was looking at her, eating her up with his eyes, he must feel the same about her. "I promised to lick you dry."

"You did," her voice was breathless.

Thunder started at her neck, slowly moving his way to her collarbones. By the time he reached her b.r.e.a.s.t.s she was arching her back. He nipped at her nipples. It felt so good. She'd never realized how good teeth against skin would feel. Her hands dug into his scalp.

He moved lower and lower. "Open your legs wider," Thunder growled. He stared at her between her legs. "I think I might be in love with your p.u.s.s.y."

More dirty talk. Tammy was resting on her elbows, her chest heaved. She watched as he lowered himself. Closer and closer. "So d.a.m.ned wet," Thunder licked his lips.

Tammy was wriggling. She couldn't help it. Thunder looked up at her, he gave her a feral grin and then lapped at her slit. Tammy grit her teeth. So good!

Then he closed his mouth over her c.l.i.t and sucked. He sucked on her some more and Tammy groaned. He had been right about the whole c.l.i.t sucking thing. She groaned again.

"I'm going to finger f.u.c.k you now," he mumbled against her c.l.i.t.

"Okay," breathy and high-pitched.

Thunder moaned against her c.l.i.t. "Delicious. I could eat you out all day." Another rumbling groan. The vibrations. .h.i.t her c.l.i.t and her eyes widened. He slipped a finger inside her and licked on her c.l.i.t.

Tammy moaned, her breath was coming in solid pants. Thunder was sliding his finger in and out. He seemed to be rubbing up against the wall of her channel. She couldn't be sure because it all felt so good.

His mouth, his finger ... make that two fingers. She began to rock against his hand and mouth. Couldn't help it. He gave her c.l.i.t a nip and she gave a hard yell. "Oh G.o.d!" It had felt really good.

"Like that?" He lifted his face. His mouth was wet. It took a moment to realize that he was talking to her. His fingers still pumped into her. She could hear how wet she was as they slid in and out of her.

"Yeah," she choked out.

"A human who likes biting, I think I might be in love." She didn't have a chance to dwell on his words because he nipped her again, his teeth quickly replaced by his mouth. He gave a hard tug on her c.l.i.t and then another. His fingers pumped.

That was her. Over and out. The end. Her back bowed, she made the most G.o.d awful noise as the rush hit. He kept up the onslaught, making her stay up there for a long d.a.m.n time before finally slowing so that she could come down.

When she eventually came back to her senses, her throat hurt from the groaning. Her breathing was so heavy that she thought she might hyperventilate. She had her legs closed around Thunder's head. Her hands were fisted in his hair. "s.h.i.t! Sorry!" Tammy let go.

Thunder was smiling. "Feel free to come on my face any time. I like a bit of hair pulling and nothing says thank you quite like nails in the back," he winked at her.

"I'm sorry. It's just I can't remember when last ..." she stopped mid-sentence.

"You haven't been with anyone since ... the loser, a.s.shole."

She shook her head. "No, I haven't but he never ... did that."

Thunder's eyes turned stormy. "He's such a f.u.c.khead. He didn't deserve you, Tammy." He gathered her into his arms like she was the most precious person in the whole world.

"He's so far in my past right now. I can't even remember what he looks like." It wasn't entirely true but for the first time since he'd burned her, she didn't feel quite as angry or upset. She would probably still punch him in the face if she ever saw him again.

"Good!" His eyes softened. "I'm glad you're moving on."

She was moving on. It felt really refreshing. "Now." She moved so that she was straddling him. "I could do with a round number two and you look like you could do with some help with that," she gestured to his very hard c.o.c.k.

"Are you offering to bounce on my d.i.c.k?"

She tried not to groan at his words. Her c.l.i.t was throbbing all over again and that heavy feeling was back. "I believe I am," her voice was husky.

"Be my guest." Thunder put his hands on her hips and lifted her. She positioned his d.i.c.k at her opening and he slid in easily. Her mouth fell open and a breath was pulled from her as she bottomed out. So full! So gloriously full!

"f.u.c.k," he growled.

He looked like he was in deep concentration. His jaw was clenched, his eyes focused on her. She gave a tight smile and lifted and then dropped. They groaned in unison.

Tammy put her hands on his shoulders. Thunder held onto her hips, guiding her up and down. He also thrusted into her from below. She let her head fall back. Slowly but surely they picked up the pace until her b.r.e.a.s.t.s were bouncing hard with every thrust.

Thunder was looking at her chest like it was the most fascinating thing he had ever seen. He was frowning deeply. Despite the fact that she was halfway to a spectacular o.r.g.a.s.m, she felt her cheeks heat and not from the exertion.

Then his gaze locked with hers. She felt the same static in the air as when he had thrown a lightning bolt. Every hair on her body stood on end as an unexpected o.r.g.a.s.m slammed into her. If it weren't for Thunder holding her in place she might have jerked off of him. Her eyes rolled back and her back bowed.

Thunder put his head in between her b.r.e.a.s.t.s and jerked hard, grunting her name. He f.u.c.ked her harder, his hands digging into her hips. It felt so good she didn't care. Couldn't care about anything other than what he was doing to her. Thunder finally slowed, his breath coming in ragged pants.

"So," she was out of breath. "You've been holding out on me."

He chuckled, his face still buried in her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, his breath tickled her skin. "I shouldn't use my power during rutting. It just happened," he shrugged.

She sucked in a deep breath. "Why not? It felt amazing. Feel free to do that any time. In fact, I'm nearly ready to go again."

"You are an amazing female. I would like nothing more than to use my power but you aren't my mate ..." he paused, "yet. It's forbidden. I've never done that before." He looked unsure.

Oh boy! She wasn't sure what to make of that.
