“Abe!”I snap.
“Sorry,” he says sheepishly
“Don’t feed me.Just… take me to bed.”
Abe growls as he lifts me in his arms and carries me inside.He doesn’t stop until we get to the bedroom.He sets me down on the bed gently, like I’m something precious.When I see the look on his face as he stares down at me, I realize Iamprecious to him.I think I might be the most important thing in the world to him.
“I’ve never done this before,” he admits, his cheeks flushing.
“Me neither.”
“I want it to be good for you.”
“Me too.”
I stand, and he shifts on his feet.His fingers curl into his palms, and I know he’s holding himself back from grabbing me.
“I want you to take the lead here,” I whisper.
He swallows hard and nods, closing the distance between us.Cupping my face, he holds my gaze as he lowers his lips to mine.
He pauses, looking for any sign of doubt from me.“We can stop if you want to.If you need more time.”
I smile as I rise on my tiptoes and press my lips against his.He reacts instantly, his hands landing on my hips.He pulls me flush against him, and I gasp when his hard dick presses against my stomach.
“When do you bite me?”I ask breathlessly.“How exactly does this go?”
“First, I’m going to strip you naked and lick you until you come all over my face.Then, to complete the mating bond”—he nuzzles into the side of my neck—“I’ll need to mark you.That’s when I’ll bite you.”
His teeth scrape along my pulse point, making me twitch in his arms.A lightning bolt of pleasure strikes me in my core, and I let out a moan.
“Yes, do that,” I pant.
He chuckles against my skin, and I arch against him.I don’t know if it’s the mating heat or if this is all Abe, but I feel like I’m about to self-combust.
His lips land on mine again.The kiss isn’t gentle or tentative.I can taste how desperate he is for me.
His tongue slips into my mouth, licking every inch and winding me up more and more.He nips my bottom lip, pulling it between his teeth before diving back in for another taste.
“More,” I order breathlessly, tugging at his shirt.
I honestly think I might erupt in a ball of flames if he doesn’t do something about the inferno he’s created in my core.
Abe grins down at me, then nips my jaw, making me groan.
“So needy,” he grunts, biting my neck gently and licking away the sting.
“What are you going to do about it?”I ask, though it comes out more like a moan.
Instead of answering me, Abe pushes me back a step and stares at me intently.
“Strip,” he commands as he gets to work, tearing at his clothes.
I pull at my clothes, my mouth watering as more and more of Abe’s skin is revealed.I push the borrowed pants and boxers down my legs and look up to see Abe staring at me hungrily.
I twist my hands in front of me nervously, a sudden wave of self-consciousness rocking me to my core.
“Roxie…” he breathes, stepping closer.“You’re so fucking beautiful,” he says more to himself than to me.
