Chapter Twenty-Two
Zoya
Sex has never been a good thing. Never. My introduction to it was painful. I was a virgin and Max didnât take the time to make it easy for me. Sex was always about his pleasure, never mine.
This feeling rolling through me like a thunderstorm? Itâs powerful and needy and⦠desperate. For the past week, Iâve wanted more from Lash than kisses as our affection and connection built and grew. But itâs as though water thatâs been simmering since I met him has burst into a full rolling boil.
Was it the romance of looking at the stars with him? The spontaneous poetry of his praise? It doesnât matter. All I know is that Iâm done waiting.
âDrive faster.â Have I ever used that commanding tone of voice in all my life?
His gaze darts from the road, the surprise on his face making it clear heâs as surprised as I am by my command. Then his shocked raised eyebrows disappear and are replaced with amusement and a wolf-like chuff.
âHmm. Zoyaâs ready to kick things up a notch.â He smirks as he forces his attention back to the road but keeps a steady pace. I guess it would ruin the mood if we were pulled over by police right now, although I wish he would pour on the speed.
The moment we pass the threshold of the Wolven Warriorsâ door, he lifts me into his arms and takes the steps two at a time. When he closes the apartment door behind him, all forward motion stops. He looks around as though heâs never seen this room before.
âVhat?â My accentâs thick. Is that because Iâm running on impulse instead of higher thought?
âSo many things. Iâve wanted to do so many things to you, please you in so many ways. Iâ¦â
Affection bursts hot and full in my chest. That heâs practically paralyzed out of a desire to make things good for me just makes me care for him more deeply.
âIâll tell you vhat I vant.â I wiggle to get out of his arms. When he sets me down, I step closer, grip his hoodie zipper, and yank it down. âI vant to trace the hills and valleys on yourâ¦â I run out of courage, but not before I gaze at his chest, making my desires known.
Itâs only after the words leave my mouth that I realize this is about more than his muscular abs. This is about who will be in charge. Will this amazing maleânot fully human, capable of growling, of using those sharp fangs to harmâlet a woman set the pace?
I get my answer immediately as he stands still for me. Heâs panting, not from exertion, but from sheer desire. His fangs are on full display as his pink tongue lolls in his mouth.
Heâs waiting. Our gazes collide as he lets me ease his black hoodie off those wide shoulders. He helps me as I yank his black tee over his head.
Itâs silent except for our breathing, as I stand only a few
