Mag-log inI slowly woke up to the feeling of Xavier's soft, sinful lips slowly pressing soft, sweet kisses to the side of my neck. I sighed as I tipped my chin up to give him more access. God, I could really get used to this. "Good morning, princess," he murmured against the side of my neck, and I smiled.
"Good morning, handsome," he chuckled against me as I grinned a little wider before pressing back further into his hold, only to remember that we were both still very naked, and his hard length was pressing insistently against my ass.
He let out a low curse at the contact, making me smile as I purposely wiggled against him. "You're playing with fire, princess." He growled out, and I giggled as he nipped at me, wrapping his arms more securely around me as his hand brushed across my nipple. I sucked in a breath, rubbing my thighs together to attempt to quell just a bit of the heat building between them. While I was a little achy, in all the right places from last night, I was not about to deny myself getting another dose of that while I could.
"You're way worse than fire, Xavier," I whispered, turning slightly so I could nip him back, right under his jaw. He grinned at me as I just smiled. "You're one hundred percent dragon, absolutely exhilarating to be around, but you never know when you're going to get the teeth or claws to go along with it. The fire is generally the easy part, at least with that you get a bit of a warning first." He just chuckled at that one, as I grinned at him.
"You've only scratched the surface of the dragon, princess." He nipped me once more as I pressed back against him. After everything last night, every single ounce of that fear had been shoved away, leaving only pure want and need for him in its place. I twisted in his hold, just enough that I could nip and pull at his bottom lip, causing him to kiss me with a ferocity that I gladly met.
His hand moved to where he cupped and toyed with my breast as his other slowly strayed down my stomach, pulling my thigh up over his, and I sighed against him as his fingertip slowly trailed through the proof of just how much I wanted him. He hummed his approval against my lips before pulling back from me just enough to speak.
"Are you sore?" He asked in a far more serious tone than I would have been capable of right now, and I shook my head at him.
"No, honestly, I feel incredible after last night." He just grinned, pressing forward as he slowly dipped one finger inside of me.
"Glad to hear it, princess, but I can't promise that I'll be able to be that gentle again. I'm not typically the soft, cuddly type."
"You're insane if you think I didn't already know that, but that's not what I want anyway. I only want you, Xavier. All of you." I whispered to him and felt him grin against me as he started up a slow but demanding rhythm, pumping his finger in and out of me before adding a second one. "Please, Xavier," I begged, and he chuckled.
"I get my hands on you one time, and you're already begging me for more?" I just whimpered at him, but he pulled his hand away. "Are you sure?" He questioned, but I felt him reach down between us, lining the head of his cock up at my entrance.
"Yes, please." I whimpered as I pushed back against him, but he was the one to slowly sink into me. I gasped as he filled me in one long stroke, stretching me to accommodate his girth, but fuck, it felt so good.
"Remember, princess, if anything scares you. If anything hurts, tell me, and I'll stop. If you need me to slow down for any reason or be easier on you, tell me. I want you to enjoy every single second of what I do to you, but I won't know otherwise unless you tell me." He whispered to me as I leaned back further into his hold.
"I know, that's why I trust you." I gasped out as he pulled back before rocking back into me. I couldn't stop the cry that fell from my lips as he buried himself all the way to the hilt back inside of me.
"That's it, good girl. You're so fucking perfect, princess." He whispered to me, gently nipping at my earlobe before pressing a soft kiss right under it, making me squirm against him. The slow, deep rhythm he had started felt so incredible, but when his hand strayed down from gripping my hip to between my legs, stroking over that sweet little nub as he slowly teased it between each long stroke.
"Xavier," I panted out as I felt that pleasure building once more. I was writhing against him when his other hand trailed up my chest before gently caressing over the front of my throat. His thumb pressed under my jaw, tipping it up further, but I gasped at the sparks of energy that sent tingling waves of bliss sparking through my whole body before his mouth joined in, causing me to buck against him even harder. I cried out as he thrust into me harder, his hand now cupping the front of my neck, not pressing down, or even truly holding me, but instead just simply resting there.
Although I wasn't expecting the controlled pulse of energy that came from that hand and coursed through my whole body, bringing with it a sharp jolt of white-hot pleasure as I screamed his name. I felt those wicked lips tip into a grin against the side of my neck as he did it again. It was almost too much, but it was so damn sweet that I stopped fighting it and just took wave after wave of pure pleasure as it washed over me until I couldn't take any more.
I let myself fall into the pleasure. Allowing it to pull me under, knowing that he had me, that I was safe here with him. My core clenched down around him as I trembled in his arms, all but screaming out my release, making him fight to continue pounding into me.
He had lost all semblance of control as he pulled me back into each deep thrust, and I cried out for him once more. He cursed low, growling it against my skin as he buried himself to the hilt inside of me, his whole body went rigid as I felt him pulsing deep inside of me once more.
He let out a sigh, panting against the back of my neck as I relaxed back against him, panting for my own air as my body slowly came down from that high. We both just lay there for a long, blissful moment before a thought all but smacked me in the face.
"So, we should probably stop in town and find some of that herb for me to take before we leave. You know, the one to prevent little soldiers." I whispered, and he chuckled before shaking his head.
"There's no need for that. It is literally in everything you eat and drink at any of the camps and the academy. The last thing they want around there are little soldiers running around."
"Oh, fair enough, I guess." He just chuckled at me once more before slowly letting me up to get cleaned up before we left to head back to the academy.
We ended up landing in a small clearing just outside the camp and walking in. It seemed just like any other camp on the outside, but the second we walked in, they all started looking all of us over like we were their next meal. All of them were dressed casually, with no armor or weapons in sight. It was a little odd considering the only other camp I had been to had been the complete opposite, well, other than them looking at me like I was a juicy steak on their plate.Xavier wrapped his arm around my waist, drawing me in close to his side as we made our way to the center of the camp to check in, and I gladly tucked myself in against his side. I was happy for it, especially as the prince started flirting with any female who walked by. I just followed Xavier into the commander's tent. This was technically my mission, so I had to be there. Although I wasn't prepared for the sight that met us the second we opened the flaps of his tent. My whole face flushed red as I took in the several
I was jostled awake when I was jerked hard against what felt like a stone wall. Blinking my eyes open, I looked up at Xavier, who had plastered me to his chest as those sharp eyes were focused on something directly behind me. The arm that had been previously draped over my waist was now held up, away from me, as his other held me firmly against his chest. "You're extremely sensitive for a Celestial." A masculine voice said from behind me, and I instantly had a fairly good idea of why I was in this current position. Slowly, Xavier's grip on me eased as he moved. "Stay put, Ari." He whispered to me as he moved into a crouch before standing to face the man who had been talking. I looked up to see that Xavier had a knife to the man's throat, holding it steady as he got to his feet. "What do you want?" Xavier demanded as I took the moment to quickly look the man over. He was covered in black from head to toe, with a matching black mask covering most of his face."The girls, of course. Do
We both went quiet after that, too caught up in our own thoughts to even talk. Although the further we flew without complaint from the others, the more comfortable I got. When we stopped in a clearing to let the familiars drink, the prince asked about it, and Xavier explained that the camp would not only be out of the worst parts of the forest, but also be nicer for the familiars, considering it would give everyone a comfortable amount of space to land. Luckily, even with Genie's knowledge of these woods, she completely backed Xavier, saying that it would be our best bet to actually not have to be on guard tonight, so in the end the prince hadn't even put up any sort of fight.By the time we landed, Xavier had actually relaxed once more, and I was really glad to see it. We landed in a large open field of thick lush grass. Rather than the starved strands at the edge of the forest, this grass was a dark lush green, and while it was still about waist-high, it didn't grip o
After Xavier had tied all of our bags down onto Bane, he gently unstrapped my swords from my shoulders before removing his own to stash on top of the bags for easy access, while still allowing us to be comfortable on the long flight. Then he held his hand out to me to take, pulling me to my feet for just a moment. He turned me to face him before sitting back down with me on his lap now. I was more than happy to lean in against his chest as he slowly looked over my face, gently brushing his thumb over my cheek as he carefully inspected every inch of my exposed skin. "Did any of those rocks hit you?" I couldn't help but to smile as I leaned into him a little further. "I'm fine, Xavier." As much as I wanted to tell him that he already damn well knew I was fine, considering he had shielded me from the worst of it. I loved the fact that he still checked. It made me feel like he actually, genuinely cared. "Good, then try to get some more rest while you can, princess." He whispered to me,
I hadn't even so much as twitched until Genie gently shook me awake early that next morning. I just blinked up at her for a moment as she yawned. It was still dark out, but the moon was hanging very low in the sky now, telling me that dawn wasn't far off."Go back to bed, Genie. It's going to take me a minute to get up." I whispered to her, trying my hardest not to wake Xavier up, and she just nodded to me with a tired smile before standing up to head back over to her bedroll as I went about the task of attempting to remove myself from Xavier's hold. It took me a minute, but I managed to slip out of his grasp, keeping his cloak as I wrapped it around myself further to keep a barrier between me and the frigid morning air. My breath came out in frozen little puffs as I went about piling a couple more logs onto the fire and slowly took everyone in as I sat there stoking the flames. The prince was absolutely passed out with a small puddle of drool under his cheek as he snored softly. His
It wasn't long before the prince came all but running back to camp with his tail now firmly tucked between his legs as Xavier just leisurely strode along behind him, hands in the pockets of his sleep pants with his muscular chest on full display. I couldn't help but to grin as I watched the two of them from where I had curled up under the covers in front of the fire. It wasn't cold, but it was definitely far cooler now that the sun had fully set. Nova was happily curled up by my feet under the covers as Bane came running up, burrowing his way under the covers behind her to curl in around her small frame. I just smiled as, not long after, I felt the blanket shift behind me as Xavier slipped under it with me. "We should be safe here for the night. There isn't much of a point in posting guards tonight. Just try to get as much sleep as possible tonight. It's probably the only time we won't have to post guards until we get to the camp." Xavier said to the whole group before lying down be
We flew for the rest of the day, only stopping when the prince complained too much for us to ignore anymore. "We're making camp here," Daydree announced, before flopping down on the grass. "There are at least two more hours of flying before we make it anywhere near where we need to be at this poi
I was more than over this place, so by the time the prince even walked out from behind his father, I was already turning to leave. Xavier was right beside me as Lexi and Genie followed close behind us, leaving the prince to trail at the back of the group. "Damn, if I knew I would be getting this k
The king came up, placing his hands on the railing just on the other side of Bane, who promptly snarled at the man as he leaned over the railing to once more address the crowd. "Are we ready to play?" He called over the crowd, and they roared with cheers, but I just watched Xavier. He wasn't paying
The second we broke through into the bright sun of the morning, once more, I instantly realized why Xavier had gotten so tense. We were ushered out into a huge arena filled to the brim with people who had all come to see the excitement for the day. A hush fell over the crowd the second we walked ou
