Ainsley trembled as her internal muscles milked the last of his essence. Dear Lord, she’d died and gone to heaven. She opened her eyes to tell him so, only to see his face descending toward her neck, fangs bared in unmistakable intent.
A jolt went through her, part sexual excitement, part terror.
“No, Delano! Don’t! You can’t.”
As though deaf to her cries, he used his hands to angle her head, exposing her vulnerable throat.
“Stop! Del, you don’t know what it’ll do.” Frantically, she pushed at his chest with her hands, but he was so strong. It was like trying to stop a hydraulic press. “Stop!” she cried again. “For God’s sake, it might kill you. Listen to me, Del. Where would we be then? Who’d stop Janecek? Who’d protect me?”
His eyes, black as midnight, burned into hers. “Shut up, Ainsley.”
Shut up? Shut up?
Then he leaned down and pressed his mouth to her throat. She braced, expecting the hot, piercing pain of his cuspids, but he merely kissed her throat, grazing her skin ever so slightly with his teeth, tasting her skin, her pulse. She trembled.
“Del—”
“Dammit, Ainsley, this is my dream, and I make the rules here. So be quiet, would you?”
Dream? Oh, Christmas.
“You think this is a dream?” She caught him by the hair, and this time, he allowed her to hold him back.
“A very nice one. And in this dream, I’m going to find your carotid artery with my fingers, like so.”
One hand splayed on her neck, and she felt her pulse hammer against his flesh.
“Then I’m going to sink my teeth into your lovely white neck until I hit that life-blood, which I’ll take straight to my heart. When I’m done feeding, I’ll close your wound, but even as I’m doing that, you’ll feel me swell inside you. And then … oh, then, my sweet Ainsley, I’m going to take you all over again. Only this time, you’ll feel what I feel and I’ll feel what you feel, and when we explode together, it will be like nothing you’ve ever experienced.”
Involuntarily, her hips surged against his. Christ, Ainsley. Get a grip. The man thought he was dreaming!
She tightened her fists in his hair. “Del, this is real. I mean, really real. And I oughta know. You just made me come three times, and you’re still inside me.”
His eyes lost some of their fire. “Real?”
“As real as it gets. Real as the phone call I have to make to Lucy when I get up. Real as the anger I’m still struggling with over the way you deceived me.”
He cursed and levered himself away from her with shocking alacrity. Though grateful he’d finally gotten the message, she felt the loss of contact like an ache. To cover her vulnerability, she resorted to flippancy.
“Well, I must say, I’ve seen smoother dismounts.”
“Hell’s teeth, woman!”
Hell’s teeth? What kind of a cussword was that?
“I was more concerned about your teeth.” Speaking of which, they had already retracted, but somehow he didn’t look any less menacing.
“For God’s sake, why didn’t you stop me?”
She pulled the sheet over herself and sat up.
