iridescent band, shimmering and shifting as their emotions changed. Can you see it too?
Has it always been so beautiful?
He lifted his head and smiled into her eyes. When you re pissed off or afraid, it
looks more like a storm cloud than a rainbow.
Have you always been able to see it?
At first it was hardly visible. Like one single strand of a spider s web.
She hesitated, not sure how to ask the next question without making it sound like
an accusation.
He chuckled. Just spit it out. I only bite when you want me to.
You ve referred to me as your mate.
So have you, he reminded.
I think the others expect you to claim me, but has it happened yet?
He threw back his head and laughed. It couldn t have been a very strong bonding
if you don t remember it happening.
So much has happened and I wasn t in control for most of it.
When we bond, you will be aware of every kiss and caress. When we re ready for
our souls to join, it will eclipse everything you ve experienced before.
How will we know when we re ready?
I m not going to rush you. You ve been thrust into a world you knew nothing
about and you deserve plenty of time to adjust to the changes.
That makes it sound like you re waiting on me. Are you ready now?
He cupped her chin and brushed his lips over hers. I know the difference between
love and lust. I can feel how vastly different this is from anyone I ve ever touched. I m
convinced you re my mate, but I want you to be sure. She started to reply, but he
placed his fingers against her lips. Wait until your life has settled into a routine and
you have learned to control your powers. If our feelings for each other haven t changed,
we ll move forward with a soul bonding.
She knew he was right. It was the sensible choice, the responsible choice. But her
heart hungered for him, longed to feel their beings entwined eternally.

He slipped his arm under her neck and covered her mouth with his. As always, the
kiss was slow and deep, exasperatingly patient. She tangled her fingers in his hair and
tried to take control. He chuckled against her moist lips and moved over her, nudging
her legs apart with his knees.
Devilment gleamed in his eyes as he drew her arms down and slipped his arms
under her bottom. His hands closed around her wrists and with one firm tug he had her
hands pressed against the small of her back and her ass rested on his forearms.
What are you doing?
Who needs rope when it s more fun just to hold you in whatever position I
choose? He angled her pelvis up and lowered his head between her thighs.
She tugged against his hands just to see if he could hold her. His fingers felt like
steel bands, inflexible yet exerting only as much pressure as necessary to restrain her. A
thrill bore deeper into her soul as her helplessness sank in. He was far stronger than
she, able to do whatever he wanted. And what he wanted was to make her drunk with
pleasure.
His tongue teased her cleft, lightly stroking her folds without touching her sensitive
clit. She wiggled, trying to guide his tongue where she wanted it, which only made him
more determined to avoid the spot.
Put your legs over my shoulders and I ll give you what you want.
Beyond caring if she were bowing to his demands, she instantly obeyed. His warm
lips pressed against her sex and his tongue slowly delved between her folds. She held
perfectly still, waiting for the first caress to send her senses soaring. He circled her
slowly, drawing tension into her pelvis as his tongue swirled round and round.
Oh. She gasped, arching into the tantalizing touch. Faster. Please.
He ignored her, continuing the mesmerizing rhythm. Her belly quivered and her
core clenched as the coil drew tighter and tighter. She trembled, hovering on the brink.
Then he surrounded her clit with his lips and sucked. The firm pull of his mouth drew
the sensations to the point of contact and when he let go, the pleasure burst and she
came in shuddering spasms.
With her legs still draped over his shoulders he lifted her and found her opening
with his cock. Her wrists were still firmly contained within his hands as he pushed into
her trembling body. She opened for him, surrounding him with heat and liquid
welcome.
He wasn t gentle and she savored every forceful stroke. This was Quinn at his best,
aggressively tender, ruthless in his pursuit of their pleasure.
Just when she d adjusted to the demanding position, he released her hands and
dragged his arms out from under her. She moved her arms to a more comfortable
position as her legs slid off his shoulders. He twined his fingers through hers and
pinned her hands to the bed on either side of her head. Then he started moving again.

Cyndi Friberg
Her heart swelled with wonder. Even in the throes of passion he worried about her
comfort, tried to balance her willingness to please him with her fragility.
In response to his selflessness, she arched into each stroke, taking him deeper and
increasing the impact as their bodies met. He moaned, and joy rippled across their link,
