Blood Moon Ch. 08

Casey started to move against Rowan frantically. Wanting to pull him into her deeper and harder, she couldn't get him closer. Understanding her silent plea, Rowan pounded into her faster. His movements shook the bed and pulled loud moans from Casey. She felt her pleasure building up to that unbearable point.

Burying her face into his neck, she sucked at the saltiness there. Her body clenched and pulled on Rowan and she cried out against his neck. She wasn't sure why she did it, but she bit down on the fleshy part of Rowan's shoulder.

With a roar, he slammed into her and came. His hips jerked as he spent himself. Casey was breathing hard, one arm wrapped around his muscular back while her other hand rested over his tight ass. He collapsed on her, his weight pushing her into the mattress. She held him to her tightly when he tried to move.

"No. Not yet. Just a little longer." She murmured.

Rowan lifted himself up just a bit so he didn't crushing her. She seemed so content, a small smile playing on her lips. When their breathing steadied, she finally released him. Rowan moved away carefully. He went to the bathroom to clean off and returned with a warm, wet cloth. As he wiped her down, she wiggled around in embarrassment.

"Whit are ye embarrassed about?" He asked with a teasing note.

The cloth moved to between her legs. He was so very careful and tender. Casey gasped when he pulled the warm cloth away and blew over her wet skin. She got goose bumps and shivered a little. Her eyes widened when she saw that Rowan was getting aroused again.

"You can't seriously want to do it again." She told him.

Her expression and tone was filled with such awe and conviction that Rowan chuckled.

"Ye started it. Unfortunately for ye, I canna keep my hands off of ye now." He nuzzled her neck and remembered she had bit him earlier.

He traced a hand over the bite. She hadn't broken the skin, but there were still the indentations of her small teeth. He heard her apologize about biting him. Looking up, he shook his head.

"Doona apologize. If ye couldna tell, I liked it verrah much." He grinned and then nipped at her shoulder.

Casey let out a small squeak of surprise. Excitement began to hum through her. His fingers slid over her mound and started to massage her clit. She pulled Rowan back over her, but he just kept playing his fingers over her until she let out a small cry of pleasure.

"Not so soon after yer first time." He told her softly when she asked why he didn't enter her.

After he kissed the top of her head, Casey cuddled up to his side as he pulled the duvet over them. They may have just complicated things, but at the moment, neither gave a damn.

Keo knocked and opened the door. He popped his head in slowly. Slim meowed and Elizabeth pinned a glare at Keo. She didn't say anything as he entered and closed the door behind him. Spread out on the bed with Slim pouncing around, Elizabeth raised a brow.

"Elizabeth, I wanted to apologize." He wasn't sure what for, but women always expected a man to apologize first. Hopefully she didn't ask for what since women also got upset if a man was apologizing and he didn't know why.

"You don't have to apologize. You're entitled to your opinion, I just don't agree with it." She waved her hand dismissively. "What are you apologizing for?"

Keo inwardly cringed. So much for hoping she wasn't going to ask that. "Upsetting you." Truth. "You must be stressed out with what's going on and I should have taken your feelings into consideration before I threw out my opinion."

Elizabeth nodded silently. She stared at Keo until he started to get uncomfortable. "You're a people pleaser aren't you?" She didn't wait for his answer. "You can't stand the thought of someone being upset with you."

"With perception skills like that, who needs to read minds?" He replied with a smile.

She held her tongue when he sat down on the bed and Slim went over to him. Rolling onto her stomach, Elizabeth sat up and tucked her long legs under her. "So, what do you plan on doing after this?"

He looked up from petting Slim. "You mean once we reach where ever it is we get to?" Elizabeth nodded. "I suppose I'll go back home. I was worried about Derek and Lilith, but seeing how important they are to you, my worries can be laid to rest."

"It would be safer if you went home. No one knows of your involvement with me or Lilith. So you should be fine." Elizabeth agreed.

"You'd probably feel more comfortable if I was gone. Someone you can't read. It must scare you."

Their gazes caught.

"Not reading your mind isn't what scares me." Elizabeth was never one to lie and she wasn't going to start now. Not being able to read his mind was interesting, not scary.

"So what is it about me that scares you?"

In a blink, Elizabeth moved closer. "It's something that should scare you too." She whispered into his ear.

"You find me irresistible." He stated in a joking manner, but there was an underlying seriousness to his statement.

"Exactly."

Keo carefully thought of his next words while Elizabeth brushed her lips over the pulse on his neck. "Go ahead. Bite me." He felt her smile against his skin.

"I wasn't going to ask for your permission." She said in a low voice before her incisors broke through skin and warm saltiness flooded her mouth. She expected him to push her away, but his hands wrapped around her body and he held her close while she fed.

Derek had no plans to let go of Lilith. After he untied her, they tried to use the phones, but none of them were connected. Elizabeth made sure to cut off their means of communication as well as taking their cells. Since there was nothing else to do, they had grabbed drinks from the mini bar. He needed something to numb the senses. Flying always made him nervous. When the plane dropped unexpectedly, he felt like he was going to throw up.

Although Lilith helped him recline the plush chair, he could see she was holding in a laugh. He had pulled her down to lay with him. They didn't have to say anything, just enjoying the other's presence. Lilith spoke first.

"Do you think Keo is okay?" She asked with a furrow to her brows.

Derek rubbed her arm. "I'm sure he's fine. Elizabeth wouldn't want to cause a mess or chip a nail with killing him. If anything, she might hire someone to kill him once we touch down." He joked.

Lilith smacked his chest. "Not funny, Roderick. He's been in there awhile."

Derek was silent and he listened for screaming or things breaking. "I think they're just talking. Leave them be."

She turned in his arms and pushed up slightly so she could look into his eyes. "Are you bossing me around, Roderick McElroy?"

He gave a cocky grin. "Well, you are good at taking directions, if I recall correctly." He pulled her down so she was half laying on him. "You were deathly quiet when I was buried deep inside of you and I dared you not to make a sound when I started to move."

"I had incentive then. You said you were going to stop if I was too noisy." Lilith pointed out, a flush starting out across her cheeks.

"How about I make it worth your while again?" He offered, his hand skimming over her perfectly rounded bottom.

Lilith was game for that.

Elizabeth exited the back cabin to find Derek and Lilith sleeping on the large reclining chair. It wasn't surprising the two were untied. She could smell arousal, pheromones, and sweat; the smells strong enough to make her gag. Although nauseous, she refused to go back into the back cabin where she left Keo and Slim sleeping.

She hadn't planned on taking as much as she did. He was just even more delicious than she imagined he'd be. He tasted so sweet and salty. When his hold on her grew slack, she realized she had taken more than she should have. Not enough to kill him, but he'd wake up with a bitch of a headache.

Keo's warm body had pressed into her as he slumped down. He gave her a lazy smile before he reached out and wiped the corner of her mouth with his thumb. She didn't get to say anything before he dozed off in her arms. She easily pulled him to the top of the bed and laid his head on the pillows.

Elizabeth hadn't been that full in a long time. A nice lethargy settled over her. Next thing she knew, she had curled up next to Keo and dozed off as well. She woke up several hours later. They were just a half hour away from New York.

She went to speak with the pilots before she made a call to check on some arrangements. She supposed she would take Keo with them until he was in good enough health to send back to the other side of the country. Hopefully he'd get better sooner rather than later. Having him around was dangerous for both him and Elizabeth.
