Chapter 24: Thirty-One

I woke before the light, and I was already wet and wanting, and none of it was mine.

For a few confused seconds I lay in the dark under the blue quilt, trying to work out where it started.

His hand lay heavy on my hip.

His chest rose and fell behind my back.

He was asleep, and he was dreaming of me.

I could feel the dream, warm and slow and without words, a loose picture of my mouth, my hands, my laugh.

It sat in my body.

I rolled over and looked at him.

Gray dawn lay across the cabin window.

His hair was a mess on the pillow.

The bite I had given him on the side of his neck had turned a deep, dark red, scabbed at the center.

I touched it with one fingertip.

His eyes opened.

The dream broke, and his whole body turned toward me, and I felt him wake up wanting.

"Morning," he said, thick with sleep.

"I felt that."

"I know." He smiled, slow and wicked. "I felt you feel it."

He rolled onto his back and pulled me on top of him.

I laughed into his neck, careful of the bite.

Every nerve of me knew where he was.

He ran his palms down my spine.

I felt his hands on my skin, and then I felt my skin under his hands, and I had to stop and breathe.

"That's going to take some getting used to," I said.

"I hope not."

He turned us again, gently, until I lay on my back on the quilt with the morning coming gold across the floor.

He kissed me, lazy and warm.

Then he kissed my collarbone, my breast, my ribs.

He kissed down the middle of my stomach and stopped, and glanced up at me from between my breasts.

"I'm starting my day here," he said.

"It's your cabin," I said.

He grinned.

He settled between my thighs on his stomach, with his big arms looped under my knees, and put his mouth on me.

I made a sound I had never made in daylight.

He licked me in a long, easy stroke.

I felt it on my skin, hot and wet and slow.

I felt his pleasure in doing it, a deep contented hunger.

It doubled.

Each lick lit me from two sides.

"Oh," I said. "Oh, Joss, that's..."

He hummed.

The vibration went through me and the bond carried it back to him, and he groaned against my clit.

I laughed and then lost my breath.

I tangled my fingers in his hair.

He sucked my clit gently between his lips, and he worked two fingers into me, slow, curling.

I could feel exactly how he liked the sound I made.

I made it again on purpose.

He shuddered.

"Don't," he said, muffled. "I'll finish before I..."
