All in the Chemistry [The Royal Wolves 4] (Siren Publishing Allure) (21 page)

“Well, sweetheart, I have a feeling that you need one, too.” Rubbing her leg up and down his thigh she smiled. “Beautiful, my handsome Wolf. That was incredibly beautiful.”

Growling softly, he smacked her lush curve lightly before rubbing away any of the sting that might remain. “I’ll let you look the next time we decide to do this,” he told her and then stilled. Turning his head slowly he relaxed when he saw one of the females of the pack moving slowly toward them. Holding out his hand to her, he rubbed at her cheek as she sat down at his shoulder, her eyes on Courtney.

Courtney smiled and offered her hand to the wolf, trusting Kris to keep her safe and the wolf was a part of their pack. “It’s all right, girl, I’m just out here being all nice and lazy sexy with my man slash wolf.”

The female gave Courtney’s hand a sniff before letting her pet her nose for a moment. Settling down she laid her head on his shoulder in a way that he could bend his arm and still pet her lightly. “She lost her pups,” he murmured softly to Courtney. “They were stillborn. She’s been in a depression ever since,” he added as he looked to his mate.

“Oh, sweetie.” Courtney’s heart went out to the wolf. “I’m so sorry, girl,” she whispered and petted her gently, her heart going out to her. “How do we help her Kris? How can we help her?” She touched her own belly and felt her heart clenching, “Will ours”—she paused—“Will our babies be all right?”

Hugging his mate close he kissed her gently. “We’ll make sure they are,” he murmured softly. “As to our girl here.” He sighed as he looked to the saddened wolf. “I’ve been coming out each day to just sit with her and encourage her to eat and move around. Her mate can’t even get close to her because she just lashes out, I don’t know what to do beyond what I’m doing now,” he whispered softly hating to admit that especially to his one and only love.

“Let your mate help you, little one,” Courtney whispered softly to the wolf and let her eyes turn to the shadows, “He’s out there watching isn’t he, Kris?” She knew that he was, the male wouldn’t leave his female, especially not with her hurting as she was. “Let your mate help you heal,” she gave to the she wolf as she looked into the far too intelligent eyes of the animal. “He will help you, but you have to let him, my dear one.”

Nodding, Kristof looked to her. “He’s about ten feet from us,” he told her softly. “He’s lying in the shadows of the huge pine with the crooked bough. He’s aching to be with her, to help her heal, but he knows that she’ll just refuse him if he tries.”

“Maybe he just needs to come closer, she might not turn him away.” Courtney hoped and then leaning back into Kris’s arms smiled. “I love you, Kris. If I ever hurt like that I would need you. No matter if I said I didn’t want you around I would need you to be strong and make me understand that I did need you.”

“Like I’d let you get away with shoving me aside,” he said softly stroking his hand over her hair, his other still easing the she wolf. “Go and get him, love,” he told her suddenly. “He’ll let you go to him and I think it would help her to see you guiding him to her. I have no idea if she’ll let him near, but maybe she will if we’re both here.”

Courtney stood and moved toward the male wolf slowly. Her hand out, she gently said, “Come on out, friend, your mate needs you and hopefully she will be more receptive of you if you come back with me.” She stopped just beside the foliage and knelt down, hand out, “Come on.” She soothed and when the male came out, whining she smiled. “Yes I know. It’s hard right now for her and for you as well.” 

She moved slowly back to Kristof and asked, “Now what, Kris?” Her hand in the scruff of the male wolf who was all but crawling on his belly to get to his mate, the whines increasing as they moved closer.

Having shifted to a sitting position, Kris held the she wolf’s head on his lap, his fingers stroking slowly through the heavy fur. “Keep him coming,” he said softly as he kept an eye on the she wolf. She was tense but seemed to be responding to her mate’s pain. When she shifted, Kris held up a hand to Courtney to wait. “Don’t move, love,” he murmured and stayed ready to act if the she wolf attacked.

“Let him go,” he murmured and lifted his own hand from the she wolf’s fur. What happened next gave him hope, the she wolf padded slowly to her mate as Kris motioned for Courtney to back off and then circle around to him. The she-wolf licked the male wolf’s muzzle and then settled down with him, her whines matching his.

Courtney’s eyes spilled tears freely as she lay her head on his shoulder and bit her lip. “Gods Kris, that’s the sweetest and the saddest thing that I have ever in my life seen.” She turned in his lap to wrap more of herself closer to him and simply held him close. “I love you, Kris, no matter what never let me simply shut you out like that. Please promise me?”

“Of course I promise you, Courtney,” he murmured hugging her tight, his eyes carefully watching the wolves. “I would never let you push me aside if something like that ever came about, which it won’t,” he said sharply. He was a strong believer in positive thinking, especially since her accident. “We are going to be just fine, Courtney, you have to believe me in this, love, I’m not going to let anything happen to you or our pups,” he teased with the last word. 

Snorting she shook her head. “You simply had to bring that word up didn’t you?” She grumbled and pulled back. “Will we really have puppies like wolves would or will we have babies that I can hold and nuzzle and change diapers for?”

“They’ll be babies, Courtney,” he chuckled at her relieved sigh. “You will have poopy diapers to change, hours of walking the floor with screaming, colicky babes and all the pleasures of watching them get their sticky little fingers into anything and everything in sight. They won’t gain the ability to change until they are between two and six years of age.”

“Oh good lord, the terrible twos will take on a whole new meaning, won’t it?” she grumbled and then grinned. “Which I’m fine with.” Kissing the side of his neck, she turned and watched the wolves as they rubbed against each other and then the male leading his female away, shooting them a look almost of thanks. “You’re welcome,” she murmured softly. “I think that it’s time for us to head home, too, Kris.”

Smiling he nodded, kissing her cheek lightly. “Good idea,” he told her softly as he helped her up to her feet before joining her. Picking her up into his arms he carried her toward the house, not wanting her to hurt her feet on the stones in the woods.

“I love you, darling.” She nuzzled against his neck and then bit him lightly. “So what do you plan on doing to me when we get inside there, my darling Wolf?”

“I’m thinking of laying you out in the bed and perhaps giving you a massage,” he told her. “Some soft lighting, some soft music and a lot of hot oil.” He had other plans but that was very definitely the start of it, later he would deal with the other things running through his head.

Courtney shivered and nodded. “So you will be giving me a massage, huh?” She loved how that sounded. “I really, really think that sounds like a wonderful, spectacular plan, darling man.”

Kissing her cheek lightly he smiled. “I thought you might like it. Just think of how relaxed you’ll feel when I’m done sliding my hands over all your muscles to loosen them for you.”

She nearly puddled there at his feet and biting her lip, she nodded. “I keep thinking of how good it will feel to have your hands and fingers moving inside of me, too, awful, I know, but there it is.”

“If you are really, really good,” he murmured close to her ear. “I will lick you to orgasm, my sweet little Wolf,” he teased with a smile that hinted at only good and pleasant things.

Courtney made a sound in the back of her throat, “Darn it, Kris, you can’t say things like that to me, darling, and expect me to remain upright. That’s just not fair, honey. At all.”

Smiling down at her he lifted a brow. “But you’re not supposed to remain upright, Courtney love, you are supposed to lay on the bed resplendent in your naked beauty as I slide my hands all over you. You will relax until you barely know your name as I touch you from the tips of your toes, up between your legs, over your breasts and back down again.” He was a bad, bad Wolf, he shouldn’t tease her like this, but he wanted her on that edge of constant and hungry need so that when they eventually came together it was as explosive as ever, if not more so. 

Her knees wobbled as she felt everything in her stilling. “Then help me onto the bed, darling, because I need you,” she said with a smile. “I need you. Gods I need you right now. I need you to touch me now.” 

Smiling wider, he backed her toward their bed slowly, taking his time and enjoying the feel of her body rubbing against his. At the bed he lifted her up and then, slowly let her down onto the bedding. “Roll onto your belly, love, and I’ll grab the oil.” He winked with a promise. 

She was going to get a massage. It was exciting to say the least and so without even hesitating she rolled to her belly and pulled a pillow under her head. “I’m waiting for you, Kris, come on, love.” 

Chuckling at her he moved to the bathroom and collected the oil and a couple of towels. Padding back to her side he lit the candles on the bedside tables and dresser before sitting down with her. Pouring some into his hands he let it warm before he ran his hands over her gently to spread the oil and then got to work massaging each and every inch of her body.

She was soon a puddle of goo in his hands. She was all limber, loose and felt amazing to be there like she was. “Kris.” It was a sleepy whisper of need. “A little lower, darling. I have an ache that only you can ease, my love.” 

Since he was massaging her lower spine, he was able to guess pretty quickly just where the “ache” was. Smiling, he leaned in and nipped at the curve of her perfect bottom even as he eased his hands over the curves, lightly massaging her. “Here, my sweet?” he asked teasing her even as he moved down another inch. “Or here perhaps,” he suggested.

“Just a little lower, Kris.” Her voice came out as a pant and gasp. “Kristof, please.” Her hips tilted up and she pressed back. “Need you, Kris, gods I need you again.”

Slipping his thumbs down the crack of her bottom, he opened her so he could breathe her in. Leaning in he pressed a kiss to her wet, slick opening. “Here perhaps?” he murmured against her skin.

“Yes, there.” Gooseflesh rose all over her body as his lips moved over her body. “Just there, darling, but I think that you need a little more pressure perhaps.”

“Perhaps,” he whispered, sliding a hand under her to tease between the curls, his slick finger rubbing over the taut nubbin of flesh. Pulling back a hair he blew on her hot flesh and chuckled when she shivered, her hips moving almost frantically.

Flipping her over to her back, Kris buried his head between her legs even as he moved them over his shoulders and, cupping her ass, lifted her up to feast on her. Licking and nibbling, he murmured softly against her, his tongue pushing into her body over and over again.

Courtney’s head tossed and turned, fingers fisted the sheets so much that she pulled the fitted sheet off of the bed and arched up with the wave of pleasure that rocked her very foundations. Sadly it didn’t take her long until she was screaming her release, shouting his name and begging him to complete her.

Not giving her a moment’s respite, Kristof pushed her up and through another orgasm, her heart thudding like a vicious drum. She shook her head as he kept thrusting his cock into her throbbing pussy. No more, she couldn’t take any more. Moaning she arched up into him and gasped. Her eyes flew wide as she felt her body responding to him, again. It shouldn’t be possible, it just couldn’t be but it was. Her body was hungry for more and he appeared not to have issues giving into the nonverbal demands.

Clutching at him, her nails scoring his arms hard she opened her mouth to scream through another. No sound escaped though as she was torn apart again. It was five orgasms before lifting his head to lick at his lips, having finally come himself and he looked damn satisfied. And well he should, he’d rocked her world and she didn’t know when it would settle again. Easing her down on the bed he began to lick a path up her body taking his time to get each and every valley and hill of her form. “Feel better, my love?” he asked, his voice deep and rough.

“Oh gods, yes I do,” she whispered. “You didn’t find your pleasure, though.” Well, at least she didn’t think he had, then again, she was nearly boneless in her complete pleasure.

“No, I didn’t,” he murmured, pressing his erection against her heat. Pushing into her body slowly, he settled over her. “But we will remedy that once you get your breath back, my sweet.”

“Oh, baby, I have it back and am ready for more.” Her words were husky and her eyes dilated as she spoke to him. “Please, Kris, move,” she whispered softly.

Smiling down at her as she whispered the words, Kristof kissed her softly and began a slow and gentle movement.

Courtney wrapped herself closer to him, holding him tightly as she did so. “Never going to ever get enough of you, Kris, just so that you know that.” It was more than their making love, it was having him simply loving her that did the trick for her.

“Ditto, my sexy Wolf,” he murmured with pure pleasure as he nibbled on her throat. He loved her skin, every inch of it was pure and silky pleasure for his senses.

Shaking her head she laughed and shivered. “And I love you, too, I love that you love my skin, too.” She looked up at him and snickered. “Tomorrow, though, I will demand that we go and spend the day at the lab.” They needed to get working on a cure for him, desperately needed to map the genome for the rogue gene and ensure it didn’t take her man from her, her life from her.
