393 Love you harder

Jaden released the tight hold she had on her arms as she looked away from him guiltily. Russ had proclaimed his love for her nearly every night… but he had yet to show her that love… Her lips puckered into a slight pout. She stood silently as she debated her next words, but before she could decide, Russ turned on her. Her eyes widened as a side of him she'd yet to see presented itself. She tilted her head as she studied him. He seemed angry and hurt but those were not the things that had her breath catching in her throat. It was the carnal hunger she saw reflecting just beneath his emotions.

Russ closed the distance between them. His eyes scanned her from head to toe as he stalked toward her. An elegant robe hugged her petite frame. The soft swell of her breast was barely visible, but it was the lack of vulgarity that seemed to excite the beast within. "You remember what I said to you earlier?" He clasped her arms, letting his hands slide down each arm as he leaned closer to her. He sniffed the sweet perfume she wore. "What I said I wanted to do to you?" His voice came out as a low growl against her ear. "What I said I've been trying to keep from doing?" His heated eyes held hers. "You question my feelings?"

Jaden didn't reply. Her eyes widened as he released his hold on her and turned toward the door. She'd never feared him before. He'd always done his best to control his emotions and his wolf side around her. He'd always gone out of his way to make her feel comfortable… but now… Now she was torn between excitement and fear.

"Understandable… I guess…" He muttered as he kicked the door shut and turned the lock.

Jaden swallowed hard as she backed up against one of the shelves. "I… I didn't mean to upset you… it's just… that…"

He turned back to her, closing the distance between them in two large steps. "I'm not upset…"

His words held a harshness she'd never heard from him before. His eyes seemed foreign to her as he studied her. She bit her lip as his hungry gaze moved down her body slowly. She couldn't hold back a gasp when he tugged the neat bow of her robe free. "Russ…"

His finger traced the low neckline of the silk and lace nightgown. "Do you want to know how I really feel? How I would typically show those feelings? What kind of man I truly am?" His eyes burned into hers as he traced the outline of a pert nipple under the thin silk of the nightgown. "Do you want to know what I've been trying to avoid doing? Why I've been holding back so fucking much with you?" He took a step closer, his feet framing hers, his free hand moving to the shelf over her head. "Do you want to know what the wolf really wants?" His voice was gruff, his hunger and longing no longer restrained.

Jaden bit into her lip harder as she nodded.

"Hum…" He bent and placed a kiss at the base of her neck before licking his way up her throat to her earlobe. "Be careful what you ask for. It may prove to be more than you can handle." He whispered against her ear, his hand squeezing her breast while pinching her nipple. When she moaned in pleasure, a wicked smile curved his lips. He clamped his hand down on the shelf as his other slid down her body following the curve of her hip. His smile widened when he didn't feel the seam of underwear under the thin material. He clasped her under her butt cheek and lifted her easily off the ground, pinning her against the bookshelf. His lips covered hers in a hungry kiss as she called out in surprise. He didn't waste time as he plunged his tongue inside her open mouth. He pressed his hardness against her, proving his desire for her.

Jaden's arms shot around his neck involuntarily. She held him tight as she eagerly returned his almost painful kisses.

Russ released his tight grip on the bookshelf, pulling her away from it as he did. His eyes held hers as he made his way back to the window seat. He pressed his knee into the soft cushion as he laid her onto it. He searched her eyes for any sign of fear or resistance, but when he found neither he asked. "Do you understand what I'm about to do to you? What I want to do?"

Jaden nodded, unable to speak.

He continued holding her gaze. "Jaden, I'm not a gentle lover… I'm not sure I know how to be… It's why I've held bad so much with you. I want nothing more than to rip your clothes from you with my fucking teeth and bury myself inside you."

Jaden shrugged. "We… we are to be wed… intercourse is to be expected…"

He shook his head. "I don't want to merely consummate our marriage. Once I get a taste of you… I'm not sure I'll be able to stop… or be gentle…"

Again, Jaden shrugged. Her trembling hands extended to his chest. She kept her eyes trained on her hands as she worked free the buttons of his shirt. "I… I want this…" She slid her hands inside his shirt, taking in his smooth, hot flesh. "I… I'm not a virgin, Russ… I know what to expect… I… I know how wolves can be…"

Russ squeezed his eyes closed as her fingers brushed across his nipples. "Jaden… You have no idea what you do to me…"

She laced her legs around the back of his thighs as she pulled him closer. She leaned forward and pressed her lips against his bare chest as she ran her other hand against the hard bulge of his pants. "I have an idea…" She stroked him through his pants as she continued to scatter teasing kisses across his chest.

Russ let out a low growl. "Fuck, Jaden… You're driving me crazy." He shifted, capturing her lips as he made short work of undoing his pants. They hadn't even hit the floor before he was pushing the hem of her nightgown up. His mouth covered hers as he lowered himself over her. He clasped her ass in one hand, pressing her harder against him with each roll of his own hips. He stroked his length against her slick folds as he devoured her lips.

Jaden held his sides tightly beneath his open shirt, sinking her nails in as she did. She arched against each thrust. The pleasure was unbelievable, even though he'd yet to penetrate her. It wasn't necessarily surprising that he was giving her pleasure, he'd given her several orgasms with his hands and mouth over the past months… but this… this was different. She squirmed against him. "Russ please… I'm ready… I… I want you…"

Russ let out a hungry growl as he clutched her ass tighter. He pulled away, watching her intensely as he shifted his hips and plunged inside her with one thrust.

Jaden's head fell back as she arched against him. Tears burned her eyes as pain mixed with pleasure. She clung to him as he began moving inside her with deep, powerful thrusts. His powerful, animalistic conquering of her body caused her to curl upward against him, burying her face against his chest and under the cover of his shirt.

Russ grunted as he slowed his movements. He released her ass as he pushed her away from his chest. "I want to see you. I want to see all the faces you make as we are making love."

She could feel her cheeks redden as she obediently laid back against the cushion of the window seat.

He rewarded her with several hungry kisses before leaning away once again. "You're beautiful… you know that?" When she didn't reply he gently turned her head toward the window.

Jaden gasped when she saw their reflection there.

"Watch how beautiful you look. See what I see." He stroked her lips with his thumb, dipping inside her mouth. When he was sure she wouldn't look away from it, he moved his hand to her breasts. He teased each nipple slowly twisting and tugging with each rolling thrust. He watched her as her eyes remained locked on their reflection. His hand slid slowly across her ribs and down her flat stomach. He traced her navel with the pad of his thumb before sliding his hand farther south. His heated gaze stayed locked on her as he began teasing her clit. "Cum for me, Jaden."

Jaden bit down on her lip as her wide eyes moved to his. He didn't need to ask; her body was already reacting to the various stimulation he was providing. Something about the way his hips moved set a rhythm, his heated stare, his teasing hands, husky words… She was completely lost in him and the new world he was showing her. She cried out her release as she arched into him.

Russ released a carnal growl as he began to drive into her harder, faster. His hand fell away from her clit, sliding around her waist. He lifted her as he sat back, bringing her into a straddle on top of his lap.

Jaden wrapped her arms tightly around his neck for balance as he moved her hips rapidly against him, meeting the downward presses of her hips with equally powerful thrusts upward. She braced herself against him, resting her head on his shoulder as she struggled to catch her breath. Her eyes shot open and she cried out as liquid fire shot through her own shoulder. She leaned her head to the side as she realized what was happening. Russ had bitten down, his teeth sank deeply into her tender flesh. Her hand moved to the back of his head, lacing it into the tight bun of his long hair. She held his mouth against her shoulder, pain mixed with absolute ecstasy as her body trembled again in orgasmic spasms. As the waves of pleasure continued coursing through every fiber of her body, she could feel the jerk of his thick shaft inside her, and then the release of his seed against her walls. She continued to clutch him tightly as his movements stopped, and their breaths came out as panted gasps.

"Holy… hah hah… fuck…" He panted. Her grip loosened in his hair as he leaned back. He kept her balanced against him with one hand as the other moved to her shoulder. He wiped away the trail of blood. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that without asking… The wolf…"

Jaden shook her head, happy tears streaming down her cheeks. "No… I wanted it… You… you marked me as yours… finally…" Her eyes shimmered as she stared lovingly up at him. "Russ… I love you…" She giggled as she pressed her lips to his chest. "I love you…"

He tangled his hand in her hair and tilted her head back. "I love you, Jaden." His lips came down over hers in a passionate kiss before he pulled away. His eyes searched hers. "I love you so much. And yes… you are mine, and I'm yours." A smile curved his lips. "Maybe we should go again so you can mark me this time." He sent her a playful wink as he bent and pressed his lips to the fresh mark on her shoulder.

She pressed against his chest with more giggles. "What now? Here?"

His smile widened. "Yeah, why not?"

She could feel him harden inside of her, causing her eyes to widen and her smile to fade to shock. "Oh! You… you're not joking!"

He sent her a cocky grin. "I never joke about sex, baby." He flipped her back onto her back, not leaving her body as he did.

"Wait!" She called out with a giggle. "Shouldn't we at least move this to our bedchamber before someone happens by?!"

"Door's locked, remember." He muttered against her collarbone between kisses, already moving inside her.

She playfully slapped his shoulders, her hips involuntarily moving with his rhythm. "Wait, I just remembered something! Isn't it bad luck in your culture to see the bride the night before the wedding? We should-ahh!"

He smirked down at her as he drove harder into her. "We should what? Stop? Are you sure that's what you want?"

Her toes curled as he moved against her. She gripped his forearms tightly. "Gahhh yes!" She cried out as her head fell back.

He changed his movements to deep half-thrusts. "Yes? You want to stop or yes give you more?"

"More!" She moaned, never before finding so much pleasure in this particular act.

He slid his hand under her head and lifted her face to his upper chest. "Your turn, baby. Bite me." He held her head there as he drove deeper inside her, picking up the pace.

At first, she placed timid kisses there, but as his hand tightened in her hair and his thrusts became nearly frantic, she gave in. She tried to be gentle as she bit teasingly.

"Harder." He ordered in a gruff growl.

She licked her lips nervously as she slid her arms around his waist, clinging to him as she widened her mouth against him. She let her teeth sink slowly into his velvety smooth skin. His heated growl as her mouth clamped down on his flesh sent shivers through her entire body.

"Yes, baby…" He continued whispering words of encouragement as he knotted his fist tighter into her hair. He could feel her walls clamp down around him as he pumped even harder into her. He put all his weight onto his elbow as he clasped her ass tighter. "You feel so goddamn good, Jaden." His own nails sank into the soft skin of her ass as he tightened his grip on her hair. "Harder, baby, harder."

Jaden's eyes were wide, her body react wantonly with each word that left his lips, with each tantalizing thrust of his body against hers. She understood now what he had meant. He liked things rough, raw… carnal. He gave his beast full reign during sex. He wasn't afraid to lose control… almost craving it, instead. Jaden felt him empty inside her once again. This time he slowly withdrew and collapsed onto the cushion, shifting her onto his chest as he did. She couldn't help but stare down at him in amazement. She'd just experienced something new… something exciting. Her eyes moved to the mark she'd made on him. He was now hers. Anything that came after this was simply for ceremonious sake. They were one, a mated pair. She carefully licked away the trail of blood on his chest as she settled against him. She nuzzled his chest as he gently massaged the back of her head, as if to ease the sting from his tight hold on her hair earlier.

When Russ had finally caught his breath and his heart rate slowed, he moved his free hand to her face. "You're alright? I wasn't too rough?"

Jaden stared back at him as he brushed the hair from her face and carefully hooked it behind her ear. She shook her head. "No… you weren't rough at all… I… I liked it… very much…"

He smiled warmly up at her. "Good," He curled upward capturing her lips. He leaned back with an even wider smile. "Cause we'll definitely be doing that again before the end of the night." He couldn't hold back his joyous laughter when her eyes became wider than saucers. "I'm kidding! Let's go to bed... first..." He sent her a wink as he held her tightly against him keeping her from wiggling away from him.

Jaden finally relaxed against his chest again. She shook her head. "Your insatiable."

He grinned widely at her. "You have no idea!"
