Chapter 366: Spending a Night in Flames** (Part Two)

Stars!

Everything felt so good. Every touch of Kenric’s mouth on Annalise’s heated skin was flame to kindling.

She suck in a sharp breath when he lingered on a sensitive spot, taking his time. But then he stilled again, his breath hot and wet against the side of my neck. Among all three of her mates, Kenric was the only one who hadn’t marked her yet and their mate bond was still incomplete, and at that moment, feeling his hot breath against her throat, was giving her way too many ideas.

When he didn’t move for a while, her brows furrowed in an unwelcome thought. "You don’t want me?" She asked while looking at him with questioning eyes.

"Does this feel like I don’t want you?" Kenric took hold of her hand and slid it between their bodies, and her fingers unconciously curled around his length through his leathers.

Annalise couldn’t hold back the whimper of pure want at the feel of how hard he was for her despite his constant tries of denying her what she was asking for.

"I always want you, Little Bird." He groaned and without even realizing, Annalise’s fingers squeezed his hardness, causing the Autumn Prince to groan as his body shivered. Then he lifted his head, seized her gaze with his, and she recognized the wild need in those dark brown-flecked depths. It mirrored her own.

"There has never been a day when I didn’t want you, and there will neither be one in future." He rocked his hips into her hand, and her grip tightened along with her stomach. "Wanting you is not the problem here."

"Then what is?"

"You need to rest and sleep, Little Bird. You will need all your energy to face these upcoming days." He confessed and his sincere worry was clearly evident in his eyes.

Annalise smiled and kissed the side of his mouth. "It’s so good to hear that you want me just as crazily as I want you and your brothers. And it’s not worrisome to keep me engaged in some intense workout tonight when"— her teeth nipped at him - "I’m the one begging you to do it."

"Little Bird." He said her name like a warning, as if he was unable to hold back any longer.

"I don’t want to think, Kenric. I just want to feel." Annalise released him, only for her hand to travel to her nape before she ran her fingers through her long and silky locks while her eyes watched him intensely. Only recently she noticed that the Autumn Prince had a thing for her hair.

His eyes darkened, and she knew that her trick worked.

Consider her crafty for her actions but she was what she was all because of her three sinful mates.

"Stars! Your hair," Kenric groaned as he took a strand between his fingers. Then he hovered his mouth over hers and whispered - "And this mouth. All I ever want to do is kiss you... until every single cell in your body has given into the raw desire of being mine."

"So kiss me." Annalise offered before she arched into him and claimed his lips, kissing him like this might be the only time she would get the chance.

This kind of desperation was neither natural nor normal; it’s a wildfire that was likely to burn them both to the ground if they let it.

The kiss was blatantly, deliciously carnal, and she found herself melting against him, matching every thrust of his tongue with her own. He tasted like the wine they shared with Damien after dinner, and he also tasted like himself.

Her husbands had become both the best and the worst kind of addiction of hers, dangerous and impossible to sate.

"Tell me to stop," he whispered, his thumb skimming the hypersensitive skin of her inner thigh.

"Don’t stop." Annalise had no plans of stopping.

"Stars, Annalise," he groaned, slipping his hand between her thighs. And the fact that he probably called her name for the first time, left Annalise in utter shock.

Kenric definitely felt the way her entire body went rigid because he immediately pulled away and looked up at her with concerned eyes. "What happened, Little Bird?"

"You..." Annalise was having a hard time processing her thoughts at the moment. Never in her entire life she ever thought that listening someone calling her by her name would hit her in such a way. "You just... called my name..."

Realization dawned over Kenric and she noticed as the tips of his fae ears turned bright red. "Because you are making me insane with your advances tonight, woman."

"No."

"Huh?" He looked at her in confusion.

"Not woman. Use my name... it does things to me." Annalise answered as she bit down her lower lip to stop the smile that was threatening to spill.

Kenric’s hands tightened their hold on her as he whispered - "You are such a crafty fox, mate. You sure learned a lot from us."

"Regretting it now?" Annalise asked while tilting her head to the side.

A smile curved the corners of Kenric’s lips before he shook his head in denial. "Never. Though I did fell for the previous sweet and innocent version of yours, the current you have me on my knees, love."

And just like that, Annalise watched as the Autumn Prince kneeled on the floor in front of her. His hands slipped down her legs that were bare because her skirt had riden up to her upper thighs. He quickly worked on her shoes and once he had taken them off, his lips found her ankle and he planted a kiss there.

Annalise let out a soft sigh as her gaze followed his mouth that was traveling up her leg and stopped right over her knee. He then gave the same attention to her other leg and once again stopped right above her knee.

He then stood up and now, his hands started working on her nightgown and undergarments that soon joined her shoes on the floor, leaving her completely naked. Thankfully, the room was filled with warmth or she would have been frozen because of how low the temperature was.

He glided his fingers down her belly before moving to the apex between her legs. One of his fingers grazed her bud for merely a second and Annalise’s back arched at the burst of pleasure that radiated through her body. The tingles were so sweet that she could almost taste them.

He captured her mouth with his again in a hungry assault, his tongue sliding against hers as his fingers stroke her bud, expertly using it for friction.

She tried to rock her hips against his hand for more, but her feet dangle off the desk, robbing her of leverage. She could only have what he decided to give.

"Kiss me, Kenric." Annalise demanded, her fingernails biting into the back of his strong neck as desire pounded through her like a drumbeat.

Kenric complied immediately without holding back. His mouth found hers into a deep, passionate kiss that sent shivers running down Annalise’s spine. He kissed her like she was the air he had been missing, like his life depended on it.

His fingers slid between her already wet folds and stroke her slickened core, and a moan tumbled from her lips. His touch was everything she needed, yet so much more.

"So damned soft." He kissed her deeply as his fingers touched and teased her prrfectly, making that sweet coil of pleasure tighten in her core.

Annalise dug her nails into his shoulder, her back arching as he made tighter and tighter circles against her swollen bud. Pleasure shuddered through her, a living, breathing fire beneath her skin.

"More." It’s all she was capable of saying, demanding, as her skin flushed and her pulse skyrocketed. She felt like she was going to combust at any moment, to burst into flames, and all she could do was whimper.

"You’re so beautiful, Little Bird. So so beautiful." His voice droped, sounding like it’s been scraped over coals. "And let me make this very clear to you, there’s no stopping now. Even if you will beg me to stop, I won’t."

"Oh Stars."

Annalise threw her hands back against the wall for leverage, knocking something loose as her hips rolled. Something shattered on the floor to the left as she rode his thrusting fingers. He curled them against her inner walls and she gasped, her thighs locked around his leather-clad hips. And when he used his thumb to stroke her bud, the friction and pressure pushed her to the edge of mindless bliss.
