He ran his fingers through his hair, then got to his feet and moved closer.
“What does this mean?” he asked.
“The game is getting more intense. It’s going to push us in ways we didn’t expect.” She shrugged. “The only way out of this is for us to become mates, right? No one leaves here, still unmated. All couples are bound together.”
He took hold of her hand, locking their fingers together. “I’m happy to wait as long as you are.”
She offered him a smile. “You saw what happened today. I don’t think this is going to get any easier, Jaxson. This is going to get very hard.” She sighed. “We both know that. Not once but twice today, I nearly died. Tomorrow, that might be you, and I just ... I can’t stand it.”
“So, what do we do?” Jaxson asked.
“We need to get out of here, but I don’t think rushing the process is going to help either of us,” she said. She rested her head on his shoulder.
“How are you feeling?” he asked.
After she had gotten out of the quicksand, he wouldn’t allow her to walk on the solid ground. He wasn’t going to risk the ground opening up and swallowing her for good, and he had no way of getting to her. That was just not going to do for him.
“I’m fine. Tired, but fine.”
He looked over to her. There was no sadness within her gaze.
“You know, I meant every word I said today,” she said. “It was so strange, because all I ever wanted to do was tell you how I felt, and for us to regain our closeness again. I’ve missed you so much. Yet, telling you this stuff seemed like the hardest thing on the planet. I mean, who just randomly blurts out they’d like a future with someone?”
“I loved it,” Jaxson said. “The picture you painted of us sounds amazing to me. I’ve thought about it a lot, especially since the elder made his declaration that you and I are destined to be mates. It is what I wanted, but I also knew I had messed up. There was no way you would want to be with me.”
“You’re wrong. I do want to be with you. Always.”
He stared at her, and she looked right at him. At first, he didn’t move. There was no reason to. He just looked at her and knew she was everything he wanted.
And then, he couldn’t hold back another moment. Closing that gap between them, he took possession of her lips and heard her soft moan. It was so soft and gentle. He reached out and cupped that very cheek, kissing her, deepening the kiss with each passing second.
She was stunning, so beautiful, and there was no one else he ever wanted in his life.
Calliope surprised him, because even as they kissed, she moved and started to work her way onto his lap, settling close to his cock. He wasn’t inside her, but he felt how close she was and pulled back long enough to look at her, then he kissed her again. Jaxson knew he could keep kissing her for the rest of his life. Running his hands down her back, he slid one hand up and cupped the back of her neck, with the other he continued to stroke. She let out a little moan and he swallowed it down.
Trailing his lips down her neck, he lashed his tongue against the delicate column of her neck. He couldn’t resist biting down, not breaking skin but just nipping. She let out a moan, and then Jaxson took her to the ground, rolling her onto her back. Staring down at her, he saw her soft smile.
“Do you have me where you want me?” she asked.
“Always.” And with that, he took her lips once again in a searing kiss. Then, he started to travel down. This time he didn’t stop. He went straight toward her tits, cupping the mounds together and lavishing each peak, before sucking them into his mouth. He couldn’t get enough of them, but he also knew he wanted to taste her.
Down he traveled, going toward her pussy. She spread open her legs, and he stroked from her knees up toward the inside of her thighs. Stroking the soft flesh of her cunt, he spread her lips wide, and then he stared at her sweet pussy. She was wet.
His mouth watered for a taste, and the scent of her was driving him wild. He couldn’t help it. At first, he pressed his face against her pussy, breathing in her delicious scent, and then he trailed his tongue between her slit. He went from her swollen clit, down toward her entrance, but he didn’t penetrate. She was a virgin, as was he, and he wanted their first time to be together.
