Third Time's a Charm [Novikov Clan 4] (Siren Publishing Ménage Everlasting) Page 6

  “I’m game. You have to count to one-hundred out loud, though.”

  “Fifty.” He countered, raising a brow in challenge.

  “Eighty.”

  “Deal.”

  They stared at each other then and Beth couldn’t miss the predatory look in his eyes. It seemed that Kaden wanted to hunt and catch her. If anything, that made her a little hotter, and her pussy clenched in anticipation. Damn, she needed this. She couldn’t even remember the last time she’d climaxed. How long had she’d been in that unfulfilling marriage? Her brain felt like mush. She couldn’t even remember his name at this moment.

  “One, two, three…” Kaden closed his eyes as he started counting and it took her almost a full eight seconds to realize that the game had begun.

  * * * *

  Kaden kept his eyes closed as he counted aloud. He didn’t need his sight to know which direction Beth was going. His other senses were heightened and with his shifter genes, it wouldn’t take long to find her. The sweet smell of her pussy was a glowing beacon inside his mind, begging him to follow her, to not let her get away. Lifting his face toward the sky, he inhaled, scenting the air.

  During their hike, her arousal spiked multiple times, making his mouth water and his cock strain. The woman called to the beast inside him, inciting him to take her right there on the ground. The man tried to be strong, but he could only take so much. The game idea was genius on his part and he was glad that Beth was playful enough to consider taking on his challenge.

  When he finally reached eighty, the magic number, he opened his eyes. The surrounding was silent, except for the wind. He could tell which direction Beth went. The brush lay down, practically creating a path for him to follow. Kaden grinned. This is going to be so easy. He almost skipped, feeling more excited than he had in years. When was the last time he felt so happy? So content? Right here in this moment, he couldn’t seem to remember anything other than Beth.

  Stalking through the dense brush, Kaden moved on silent feet. He wanted this game to last longer than five minutes. He wanted Beth to feel the over powering excitement that he felt in this moment. The wind changed and Kade paused, scenting the air, searching for Beth. She changed directions. Instead of hiding like he’d assumed, she pushed forward and kept moving. Grinning like a fool, he followed. Where was she going? Did she have a destination?

  Her scent grew stronger and Kaden stopped in his tracks. She was close. Her arousal shot sparks of electricity straight to his cock. Using the heel of his hand, Kade pressed his erection down and bit back at moan. He wanted to get his hands on his mate, but more than that, he needed her flavor on his tongue and down his throat.

  Trees surrounded him now. A slight breeze blew, and his nose twitched. He knew exactly where she was. His mate was within reach, only about ten feet away at the most. It wasn’t just her scent he picked up. Now, he could actually hear her heart pounding rapidly. Sneaking closer, Kaden didn’t stop until he stood almost directly on top of her. Gliding around the huge pine tree, he saw Beth crouched low. Her big brown eyes looked up at him. She was his.

  Going to his knees, Kaden reached out for her and Beth surprised him by shimmying closer. Their eyes met and held. He stared at her, memorizing each detail. His little mate was exquisite. Licking his lips, Kade leaned forward. It felt as if he were moving in slow motion as he lined up their mouths. Anticipation was a living being inside of him. He couldn’t wait a second longer. He needed her.

  Their lips touched, hesitantly at first. Her mouth felt like heaven. Closing his eyes, Kade applied more pressure before opening his mouth slightly. Beth followed his lead, mimicking him. Kaden growled as he lost a bit of his control, and he pushed his hands through her hair pulling her closer. He held her gently, but with firm intent as he pushed his tongue into her mouth. He let his tongue plunge inside, imitating what his cock wanted to do. He slanted his head, their lips meshing together. She felt so right in his arms, so perfect.

  “Oh God, Kaden,” she moaned when he came up for air. They both sucked in much-needed oxygen.

  He stared down at her and his heart froze. Kaden was fascinated with the way she was looking at him. It made him feel powerful. The beast inside him wanted to hunt for her, to kill a huge buck and lay it at her feet. He wanted to show her that he could provide for her. This was his mate, the woman he’d share with his brother, the woman who may one day be the mother of their children.

  He moved then, slowly laying her down on the ground. He kept his weight off her. It was hard to do. He really wanted to feel her against his body more than anything, but that would have to wait for another time. This first time, it was all about her, about pleasuring his Beth. Putting his own needs on hold, Kaden leaned down and claimed Beth’s lips once more. It was time to claim his prize, and he didn’t want to wait another second.

  Kaden kissed her, moving from her perfectly plump lips to her jaw and neck. He placed opened mouthed kisses along her neck. Her shirt kept him from the hidden treasure of her breasts, and he groaned in frustration. Beth seemed to understand his dilemma and took pity on him. Reaching between them, she lifted the barrier out of his way. Absolute perfection met his gaze. Milky twin swells covered in thin lace made his mouth water.

  “God, you’re beautiful.” He leaned down and sucked a rosy nipple into his mouth.

  Beth groaned, and her back arched as she offered herself to him. He curled his tongue around the peak of her soft breast and thought he would come then and there. She wrapped her legs around his waist, and he could feel the heat of her pussy through his jeans. Leaning back slightly, Kaden pulled the cups of her bra down, wanting naked skin instead of lace. He moved to the other breast then, not wanting either one to feel left out. Beth shivered when he bit down gently on her nipple.

  Beth moved restlessly against him, and he knew she was getting hot and bothered. It was an amazing thing to have his mate under him, wanting exactly the same thing he did. He wanted to get her off, to give her the maximum amount of pleasure. He wanted to hear his name on her lips as she climaxed.

  “Please touch me more. I need…” Beth moaned.

  Kaden kissed down her chest to her stomach. He licked her belly button before placing gentle love bites on her hips. With one hand, he anchored her, keeping her against the ground as he moved lower, taking his time. He explored every inch of exposed skin, listening to her reactions. When he reached the top of her jeans, Beth’s hand shot out. She grabbed his head, coaxing him to go further.

  Not wanting to disappoint, Kaden undid one button at a time. With each tiny bit of skin, he licked. Once her white panties came into view, he rubbed the material covering her pussy. He moved her jeans further down then waited for her to kick them off. He wanted her fully open. That task was over in about ten seconds, and then Kaden was exactly where he’d wanted to be since first realizing that the beautiful creature underneath him was his mate.

  Wet. Hot. All mine. Using only one finger, he hooked the material and moved it to the side, exposing her. Kaden paused, staring at her. She has the most beautiful pussy I’ve ever seen. Smooth, soft, naked skin with only a small triangle of brown curls. God, I’m hungry. Her ripe pussy glistened in the afternoon sun, showing him how truly wet and ready she was. He inhaled, and her arousal slapped him in the face. Honey, creamy, delicious. Licking his lips, Kade couldn’t wait another second. He looked up and stared at Beth as he leaned down and opened his mouth. She seemed to stop breathing then, waiting for him to make contact.

  When he was only a breath away, he blew on the exposed skin and Beth widened her legs in silent invitation. She whimpered when he didn’t move in right away and Kaden broke eye contact, grinning. Not wanting to torture her, Kaden finally let his mouth touch her pussy. The taste of her was more than he could ever have dreamt of. He devoured her like a starving man needing sustenance.

  Kaden slid a finger inside of her, while suckling on her clit. Beth pushed her pelvis up, hard. She moved restlessly, moaned loud, and told him
exactly what she wanted.

  “Yes, Kaden,” she yelled. “Don’t stop. Oh, God. That feels so fucking good.”

  Kaden picked up the pace. He added another finger, fucking her, wanting her to feel how good it could be between them. She was so fucking tight. She was going to feel like heaven wrapped around his cock. Applying more suction to her clit, he flicked the hard nub with his tongue rapidly. Beth lost her mind then. She gripped his head, tightening her little fists in his hair.

  “Ohgodohgodohgod.” Beth’s head thrashed from side to side.

  Kaden fucked her with his fingers, faster. His dick was hard, pushing painfully against his zipper, but he ignored it, focusing on his woman. Beth bucked against his fingers, and he felt a warm rush as she screamed his name. Slowing his movements, Kaden licked and kissed until Beth lay limp underneath him.

  Wiping his mouth, Kaden looked up. Her face was flushed and she looked sleepy, but she complied with a sexy little smile.

  Chapter 8

  “Oh, my God.”

  Beth couldn’t seem to form any thoughts. Pleasure sang through each and every part of her. Kaden’s mouth was her new favorite toy. Forget her battery-operated boyfriend. Kade’s mouth was a million times better. How the hell did he suck, lick, and flick at the same time? The pressure. The pure intensity. Where had he learned that little trick?

  “I’m glad you liked it.” He smiled as he moved up her body so that they were once again face-to-face.

  Liked? No, I loved it! She’d never wanted to reciprocate more than right now. She wanted, no needed, to give Kaden some pleasure. She didn’t want him to think she was a selfish lover. It was the first time that she cared what a man thought of her.

  She traced the line of his jaw with her fingertips, feeling emotionally connected. How was that even possible? Why do I feel so connected to this man? “I feel safe with you, Kaden.”

  “You are safe with me, Beth. I’ll take care of you.” She believed him.

  Even after all the lies she’d heard from men over the years, she really did sense his honesty. It wasn’t a line. He wasn’t telling her what she wanted to hear in order to get into her pants. No, the man lying on top of her was completely sincere.

  Beth ran her hands down his sides, pulling up his T-shirt as she went. She wanted to touch naked skin. She wanted to feel the hard muscles he was hiding. Kaden seemed to get the hint, and he pulled his shirt off. Beth admired his perfectly cut chest. Whatever the man did for work was damn good for his physique. She let her hands roam over the glorious expanse of his chest and down to his abs. She loved the feeling of smooth skin over all that powerful muscle.

  “I want to take care of you now,” she rushed out. She wanted him naked, under her.

  “I’m all yours.” Kaden rolled over, lying next to her, and Beth pounced, straddling his hips.

  Beth pulled her shirt off, followed quickly by her bra before lying against him. The contact of naked skin was almost more than she could bear. It felt exquisite. Rubbing her chest against his, her nipples pebbled. Focusing on Kaden and giving him the pleasure he’d shown her was on the forefront of her mind.

  She trailed her fingertips across his chest and figured out pretty quickly that his nipples were sensitive. Without wasting time, she leaned forward to lick one. She was more than happy with his surprised gasp. It made her feel powerful. This strong, sexy man was excited by what she was doing. Beth bit down and Kaden jerked, groaning loud. She moved to the other nipple, biting, licking and sucking.

  Moving down his chest, Beth gave his hard abs attention. All his muscles were flexed, his whole body straining. She took her sweet time, mimicking his earlier actions. When she reached the top of his jeans, she grinned. She could remember how she felt in this exact moment only minutes ago, or was that hours? She didn’t know.

  Beth unbuttoned the top button and Kaden jerked. “Oh, fuck.” The man knew what was coming next.

  She giggled to herself as she lowered the zipper, the noise echoing through the forest. The man went commando. Mmm…mmm…mmm. Grabbing the sides of his jeans, she wasted no time yanking his pants down as her mouth connected with the tip of his cock. Kaden jerked, throwing his hips up to help her while simultaneously shoving more of his length into her mouth.

  “Oh, God…I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do that.” He panted, still moving his hips frantically.

  She didn’t take his hard length out of her mouth in order to comment. He hadn’t hurt her. In fact, in all the man’s excitement, he was careful with her. She reached down, grabbed the base and stroked his cock. A tortured hiss sound came from Kaden’s mouth when she squeezed the crown with her mouth, suckling hard. The taste of pre-cum filled her mouth, splashing against her tongue, and she swallowed, loving his sweet, spicy taste. Moving a bit faster, Beth started bobbing her head up and down. She created a hard suction, sucking in her cheeks.

  Kaden rambled incoherently. She didn’t understand a word. He kept calling her mate with such reverence that it touched something inside her heart.

  “I need you.” His voice was raw. Beth understood what he meant and climbed up his body. Their minds were on the same track.

  He took her mouth in a passionate kiss as he turned their bodies, placing her underneath him once more. Kaden wrapped his arms around her. He moved his hands down and cupped the cheeks of her ass, lifting her slightly. His dick knew exactly where to go. Beth steadied herself, placing her hands on his shoulders. Her eyes went wide as Kaden began working his big cock into her. He started with shallow little strokes, being careful with her. He eased in and out, and Beth lifted her hips, urging him to go faster.

  Kaden pushed hard then, and they both groaned at the exquisite sensation as he seated himself completely inside her. Beth couldn’t believe the amount of pleasure that ran through her system. She dug her nails into his shoulders, leaving half-moon-shaped marks. She wanted to mark this man and keep him.

  Sparks of pleasure raced through her system as Kaden moved, fucking her with hard deep thrusts. Beth opened her mouth and screamed as her pussy clenched again and again around his cock as she went over the edge. Her release seemed to trigger something wild inside of him. Kaden held nothing back. He pounded into her, slamming her slick pussy up and down on his dick.

  He tightened his hold on her, digging his fingertips into her hips as his mouth came down hard on her shoulder. She felt a sharp bite of pain and then sheer bliss as Kaden’s movements became jerky. Beth felt small shockwaves of pleasure rush through her and she yelled his name. He slammed into her and held her close as he ground against her, shooting hot cum deep into her.

  Her mind felt drugged with pleasure. He licked her neck where he’d bitten and then proceeded to kiss her over and over as he softened inside her. Beth wrapped her arms and legs around Kaden and held him close. The connection brought tears to her eyes, but she refused to delve into those feelings right here.

  “Oh, shit,” Kaden mumbled into her throat.

  She couldn’t tell if that was good or bad, and she didn’t want to ask the question. Honestly if he said one negative word or had any doubts about what just happened, she never wanted to know. This was the only time in her life that she wanted to hear a lie.

  “You’re the only woman for me, mate.” Again tears filled her eyes, but this time she smiled. Those were the sweetest words he could’ve said.

  Swallowing the lump in her throat, Beth wasn’t sure what to say. It was too soon to tell him what she was feeling. So instead of pouring her heart out, she said, “I’m glad.”

  Kaden kissed her lips gently, before leaning back. A breeze blew, cooling her sweaty skin, making her feel good. Kaden grabbed his T-shirt and wiped her body off before helping her get dressed. When she was back in her clothes, he started to get dressed.

  * * * *

  Kaden kept the smile on his face and his eyes gentle even though his mind was having some trouble processing all that had happened. The original plan for the day was to get
to know Beth better. He had hoped that this would be the start of a relationship. He wanted to start building a good foundation before Jason arrived back into town. His brother was already speeding his way up to them, eager to meet Beth.

  The “hide and seek” game that he’d suggested turned their innocent hike into something way more significant. He had no regrets about making love, none. The only problem…he’d claimed and marked his mate without her knowing anything about shifters and he’d excluded his brother. As the oldest, it was his right to claim Beth first, but the last thing he wanted was to leave Jase out. After the bite, mates bonded and got closer. It was impossible to slow things down. They would crave each other. He just hoped that Jason would get home sooner rather than later.

  Calling himself a fool, Kaden held out his hand and Beth took it without hesitation. She looked at him with such trust, and he felt a stab of guilt. He wished that he could rewind time and take control over the beast inside him. The bear had gone wild, taken over, and marked its mate. Now, the predator was resting in the back of his mind, content and happy. No other men would try to take what was his. All the other shifters in the area would be able to scent him on Beth.

  Kaden pulled her into his arms and hugged her. Her scent surrounded him, a fixture of them both. It tickled his nose, making him grin. He still couldn’t believe that his mate had walked into Mack’s and waited on him. Wrapping an arm around her waist, Kade led Beth back toward his, their home. It would be their home once she moved in and she would, hopefully sooner than later.
