Free SKIN (Demon Chaser 4) by Charlene Hartnady Page B

excruciatingly slowly, he thrummed on the tight bundle of
nerves. “Come for me sweetheart.” He urged keeping up the tortuous slip and
slide over her clit. Using two fingers he squeezed the tight nub which was just
what she needed to bring her over the edge in an all out mad dash leap that had
her screaming his name along with half a dozen profanities she wouldn’t dare
use in the lowest whore house. His body tensed over her and he snarled, then
his movements became jerky yet deeper, harder. He made a strangled noise
through clenched teeth as his hot seed filled her.
    Phoenix stayed crouched over her with his
still semi erect cock buried inside her, his breathing was choppy. Her body
still hummed from the last of her orgasm. 
    “We can’t do that again.” His words hit
her like a slap across the face.
    “Yeah you’re absolutely right.”
    He withdrew leaving her feeling cold and
hollow inside. “I’ll get you a towel to clean up.”
    “I’m fine, I’ll take a shower.” She
stood walking to the cubicle.
    “Hey.”
    Gaby didn’t turn, she didn’t want him to
see how shaken she was, how much he had hurt her. Instead she reached into the shower
to turn the faucet on.

    Her back was to him, her posture rigid.
How the hell did he make her understand that he wanted so badly to pound into
her body with no regard for the unborn children in her womb? The woman drove
him nuts, made him forget everything and everyone. Made him forget that once he
was buried inside her tight, hot sheath he wanted to fuck and allow his demon
to take control. Every second inside her had been pure torture. Phoenix was not
sure how to deal with this since it had never happened before. 
    “We can’t risk it again.” Phoenix took
her upper arm and turned her towards him. Even his orgasm had been strictly
controlled. Thank God he hadn’t hurt her. It was all new to him, this need to
fuck with full force and aggression. What the hell was wrong with him? “I could
never live with myself if something went wrong.”
    “It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”
    Like he was going to buy that one. “You
need to understand that I am attracted to you, in a big way. I care, that’s why
we can’t do that again.”
    “I understand.”
    “Do you?”
    She smiled and he relaxed a little. “I
really do.”
    “Good. I know that you are against us
mating, but I would like for you to reconsider. We are sexually compatible; it
would be a good pairing.”
    Gaby’s features clouded for an instant, and
then she nodded her head. She turned, hesitated and turned back. A look of
determination on her face. “You have listed the babies and our sexual
compatibility as grounds for us to mate, what about love Phoenix, don’t you
think that feelings are important in a forever commitment?”
    “Truthfully, no I don’t. I would
consider you to be a friend, we are attracted to one another, the sex is great.
That’s more than most can hope for, at the very least, it’s a good start. We’re
also going to be parents so as far as I’m concerned the children must come
first.”
    “I’m sorry, but I don’t think it’s
enough. You can be a part of the children’s lives but I still think that this
can’t happen again.” She stepped into the shower and closed the door before he
could argue further.
    What did he feel for her? He was
possessive, but that could be his paternal instincts. He’d never been as
attracted to a woman, but that was his dick talking. Did the thought of mating
her make him want to turn on his paws and run? No, but that could be the
responsible wolf inside him talking. Phoenix liked her, hell, he liked her a
whole damn lot but to say that his feelings ran any deeper, he just couldn’t be
sure. Maybe she was right. There was no rush although maybe someone should tell
his dick that. Fully engorged, ready for round two. Gaby wound him in knots.
Her long lean legs, those amazing green eyes that had the ability to hold him
captive.
