Savage Sanctuary: A Dire Wolves Mission (The Devil's Dires Book 2) (10 page)

L
evi awoke
to a predawn glow lighting the bedroom in an ethereal sort of way…and a hard-on the likes of which he’d never experienced. He positively ached for his mate. Lucky thing she was right beside him. Well, beside wasn’t quite the right descriptor. In his sleep, he’d ended up with his lips against Amy’s neck and his hand between her legs. And he wasn’t just pressed against her; he was practically on top of her. He could use the excuse that his wolf was probably protecting her while they slept, but he doubted the truth would be so altruistic. His hard-as-steel cock nestled snugly against her ass was proof of that.

Plus the fact that he’d woken up three times overnight in the exact same position.

And still, as he pushed off the haze of a solid few hours’ sleep, he crept closer. It was as if his body couldn’t get close enough, even in his sleep. As if his subconscious sought out her soft curves and hidden secrets. Well, not so secret after last night. He knew exactly how tight that pussy was, how warm and soft. And how wet…still. Every time he’d woken overnight, he’d ended up buried inside her, made her come too many times to count. But he wasn’t done. Not yet. Not by a long shot.

He rocked his hand back and forth, letting his thumb tease her opening. Fuck, she was so wet already. All the things he should do—patrol the house again, monitor the perimeter of the property now that it was daylight, check in with his brothers as he’d failed to do all night—were mere whispers in his mind. They should have been demands, should have had his soldier training kicking in to override his libido. But they weren’t…at all. He had his warm, snuggly mate in his arms. Had the taste of her skin on his tongue, her plump ass practically hugging his needy cock, and her arousal on his fingers. He wasn’t moving from this spot.

Well, he was definitely moving, just not to leave the bed. Not yet.

He let his fingers explore through her tight curls as he slid his lips and teeth back and forth across her shoulder. Teasing her, preparing her for what he had planned. The mission he was mounting. Amy sighed and moved with him on instinct alone it seemed, spreading her legs and rocking her hips. It wasn’t until he had his fingers deep inside her and his cock rutting against her ass that she woke up, though.

“Levi,” she moaned, dragging his name out in a way that made his beast growl in pure sensual delight. Fuck, that was hot.

“Say it again.” He pushed his fingers deeper, keeping the heel of his hand against her clit. Keeping her on edge. “Say my name just like that.”

She rocked into him, her growl matching his. Her entire body shivering as she neared her climax. “Levi.”

Yep. That was it. He rolled her forward, using his body weight to trap her underneath him. He liked her like this—facedown, under his control, and almost helpless to seek her own pleasure. She could try, could wriggle and writhe beneath his weight, but there was nothing to rub against. Nothing to push her closer. Every sigh, every shiver, every single beat of her heart as she chased her orgasm was on him. Leading her to the edge of her resistance, watching her shatter, feeling her positively drip because of the things he’d done—now,
that
was satisfying. He’d get her there again, just like last night. Better than last night. He had to.

Fingers deep and hand teasing, Levi opened his mouth over the muscle leading from her neck to her shoulder and touched his teeth to her skin. Grabbed her with them. It was a wolf sort of warning, a call to the animal within her to settle. To let him lead. To submit.

Amy gasped, her shiver turning into a full-body shake. Her pussy clenched around his fingers, walls fluttering in a way that told him how close she was. Already. He had to get inside her before he missed his chance. Had to hold her down and fuck her until she cried his name in that breathy tone a thousand times. Had to go balls deep and show her who owned that warm, wet pussy he had in his hand.

So he did.

Dragging his hand from her heaven, he lined himself up and thrust. One push. No soft nudges or slow movements. His girl liked it hard and fast and rough. At least, she had last night, and he was fucking thankful for that.

His pace left no room for talking, though she tried. Little gasps of his name as he slid deep, mewls and cries as he made sure her clit got the attention it deserved. But the best was the way she would growl and snarl when his teeth pressed into her shoulder. Soon… That claiming bite would come soon. But not yet. Not until they talked about everything. Until she knew what his life was like and could decide if she wanted to be with him forever. A mating bite was a one-shot deal, no take-backs, no returns. She needed to be sure before he claimed her that way. Even he wasn’t that much of an animal.

Still, he rutted against her until she had to place both hands against the headboard to keep from sliding into it. And Levi took advantage of that position, wrapping himself around her and holding on tight. One arm around her chest with his hand on her tit, one around her hips with his fingers flicking that pretty clit. He owned her body with every stroke, every shift, every fucking pinch and rub. Fucked her hard and deep until she came with his name falling from her lips. Until he emptied inside of her with a grunt and a harsher bite to her neck. Until they were once again sweaty and sated…for the moment.

“Well, good morning,” she said with a laugh as she finally rolled over to face him. Her eyes were bright, her hair completely wild, and her face was flushed. She had a bruise on her neck from his teeth, a mark that made Levi’s wolf go wild. She was the most beautiful thing he’d ever seen, and she was his.

But he couldn’t keep his eyes off that mark. “Good morning to you, mate.”

She growled and wrapped herself around him. Pulled him in for a deep, wet kiss that ended far too soon. “I like the sound of that.”

His hands were unstoppable, running up and down her body. Following every soft curve. Exploring every dip. His eyes still going back to that oval mark that made him want to purr in pleasure. But reality had begun to sneak into his thoughts, things like responsibilities and missions. Things that should have taken precedence.

He hated the words he needed to say next. “I should get up.”

“Why?” She bent her leg, rubbing her thigh against where he was growing hard for her again.

Levi leaned down and kissed her nose. A silly act even as his hand slid between her legs to tease her some more. “Need to check the house.”

Amy moaned and spread her legs wider. An invitation Levi couldn’t resist. He plunged inside, curling his fingers to find that sweet spot. She was so wet, so swollen still. The picture of sweet debauchery in his bed. Him practically on top of her, naked skin glistening in the low light, legs spread and pussy so wet and wanting. Perfect…every fucking inch.

As Levi twisted his hand to press his thumb alongside her clit, Amy groaned again and clutched at his shoulders. Bucking her hips and trying to pull him closer.

“The house is fine. Great. Perfect,” she said, as her wild eyes met his. Desiring eyes…filled with a need that broke every bit of will he had left. As did her words.

“Fuck, come inside me again. Please.”

Levi growled and surrendered, though not completely. There were things to do to keep her safe, but he could give her one more orgasm before he pulled himself away. He just needed to be thorough. So he did as she wanted—sort of—plunging three of his fingers deep inside her. Focusing on the feel of her skin, the sound of her harsh breathing, and ignoring the procedures and tactics racing through his brain.

Amy groaned with every move of his hand, so fucking responsive to his touch. That knowledge made his dick practically weep for her. He nuzzled her neck as his fingers stroked and plunged and drove his mate wild, licking and nibbled where he wanted to bite. Where he wanted to claim her.

“Want it,” Amy gasped, tilting her head back to give him more room. “Please.”

His growl became something long and unbreakable, a constant rumbling through the room. “You don’t know—”

She grabbed his hand, stopping him, his fingers trapped inside her pussy. “Don’t assume I’m some weak-minded girl who doesn’t know what I’m getting myself into. You’re my mate and I’m yours. It’s a forever connection. Yes, there’s danger around us, but you’ve already promised to keep me safe. We’ll learn about each other as we go…trial by fire.” She let go of his hand, rocking her hips so he would finger her again, nuzzling his neck up to his ear. “I trust you. I want you. Bite me, Leviathan. I want to feel you inside of me in all ways. Please, my mate.”

He couldn’t have resisted that please for anything. She didn’t know yet, hadn’t been told about his heritage. About the secret he held or the lifestyle he lived because of his wolf. But she wanted
him
, the man, and he’d give that to her. She’d learn about the Dire Wolf eventually.

“As you wish.” He pulled his hand from between her legs and once again pressed his cock inside. She was swollen with her arousal, tighter than before, and that made it so much harder to hold back. He wanted her close when he bit. Wanted her begging for something. For him.

Legs around his waist, eyes staring into his, Amy smiled and enticed him. Worked her sorcery over him until there was nothing in the world but the two of them and that moment. Just sex and care and heartstrings tied together forever.

And teeth. Then there were teeth.

His canines descended as he ran them along her neck, bursting through the gums and giving her a feel of what was to come. Giving her an out. One more minute. That’s all he needed. One more minute of fucking his mate, and he’d be ready to come. Ready to give as he took. Ready for whatever this moment led to.

He ground deep, keeping an eye on the way she arched into him, how she gasped and shivered. On the way her eyes closed and her head tilted back with every thrust. She was so beautiful like this, and she was close. Almost there. Right on the edge of—

“Levi, now.”

She came with a moan that put his beast completely in control, and Levi bit down with purpose. The orgasm that hit him had to be as strong if not stronger than the one she was having, the one milking his cock with every clench. Fuck, he was right at the edge with her—somewhere between best orgasm ever and fearful she’d squeeze hard enough to break him. And still, he kept going, kept rocking into her, kept biting and sucking and taking. He took in her essence and gave her his before licking the wound and rolling them over. Offering himself to her the only way he knew how, by letting her lead. Subjugating himself.

And she took that dominion with a growl and a grin down at him as she rode through her orgasm. She leaned down, nuzzling his face before heading right for his neck. He tilted his head, ready, needing to feel the sting of her bite as he’d needed to give her his. Thank the fates she didn’t make him wait.

Her teeth entered his skin, and he died with her name on his lips. Not literally, but it certainly felt as if his life was over. Dead and brought back to start anew, to begin all over with only her. His cock jerked and throbbed, another orgasm rocking his body all the way to his toes as she gave back what he’d already taken from her. He felt her pleasure mixed with his own, felt the spirit of her in ways he’d never experienced. He felt
her
, and it was amazing.

T
oo many hours
of continually fucking his mate was as long as Levi could ignore the need to protect her. Already, his wolf was pacing in his mind, needing to monitor and patrol. Wanting to reach out to his pack. Fuck, but the mating haze was hard to pull away from.

“Why don’t you shower?” Levi licked her neck, eyeing his claiming bite. Growing hard again just by seeing it on her skin. He was going to need to stock up on electrolytes and energy shots if his mating drive kept up at this pace.

“Why don’t you come with me?” She ran her fingers over his arm, teasing him. Again. He’d have to get one of his brothers to bring supplies—there was no way he was going to a store without her, and if he took her with him, they’d probably end up having sex in an aisle.

Sadly, he needed to focus on something other than sex for a minute.

Levi growled and held her to him for one more sweet moment before rolling away. “Because if I join you, I’ll fuck you against the tiles until the water runs cold.”

“Not seeing the problem there.”

He chuckled, rubbing circles on his chest above where his heart beat for the woman by his side. “I need to do a perimeter inspection and check in with my brothers. Otherwise, yes, I’d happily follow you into that stone shower and show you what I can do to you while standing up.”

Amy sighed before rolling out of bed. “Fine. Send me off to get clean without you.”

Levi growled and rolled with her, almost whimpering when she actually left the bed. She was naked, gloriously, totally naked, and wasn’t shy about walking around like that. Not that he expected her to be. Her entire body was on display for him, every scratch and red spot from their sex-filled night. Every centimeter of that claiming bite practically glowing.

“You are so fucking beautiful.”

The words were soft and unplanned, but that apparently didn’t matter to Amy. She grinned and bent over him, giving him one last taste of her lips.

“And you are so fucking amazing, mate.”

He growled and kissed her one last time before lying back. “Go. Before I pull you on top of me and let you ride me again.”

“Still not seeing the problem there.”

Levi sighed as she walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind her. Yeah, there was a problem. The problem being someone peeking at his mate and getting too close to her pack. The problem being the fact that they were on the run, not tucked away for some kind of mating honeymoon. He had a job to do here, and his dick needed to stand down for a few hours so he could make sure she was safe. But good goddamn, he was totally going to have her ride him next time. Just the thought of those tits swinging as she took her pleasure from him had his dick standing up and begging.
