  “As soon as you entered the room all my daydreams and fantasies came flashing back. I’ve been dreaming since I met you of all the things I want to do to you, so that’s a lot of images.” She eased up on her elbows. “You taste better than I imagined. I didn’t know I could kiss someone and want to literally devour them.”

  He chuckled and moved back up her body. He cupped her face and stroked her cheek. “It nice to know I’m not the only one who’s been having dreams for the last year. I really am sorry I didn’t claim you earlier. I wasn’t even supposed to be at the events I went to, but they were important, and they also gave me my fix of you.” He took her mouth to his, tasting her and letting her taste him. April eased further up and wrapped her arms around him clinging to his back.

  They rubbed their bodies against each other, the friction building the already high tension running through his body. Her skin was smooth and soft and felt like heaven against his hard body. They broke apart, both panting for breath.

  Roth ran his hands around and cupped her breasts, pushing them up and circling one of her nipples with his tongue. She shivered beneath him, moaning at his touch. He swapped breasts and circled the tip before gently sucking it in. He let her breasts go and trailed his fingers down her body to the juncture between her legs where he let his fingers explore her pussy and sink in and out of her wet core. Easing down her, he licked her skin and sucked on her before nibbling her stomach and sending tingles of delight that coursed through her as he settled between her spread legs.. Easing his fingers out of her pussy he sucked them into his mouth, moaning as her sweet taste exploded onto his tongue. She tasted like home, like heaven, and he wanted more. Roth put his face down and buried it between her pussy lips licking her up and down before he drove his tongue deep.

  “That feels sooo good. More, Roth. Give me more,” she rasped as her fingers threaded through his hair.

  He nestled in closer and moved his lips back and forth over her clit and licked and sucked on her nub. April’s body vibrated against him, and he knew she was close to coming. Her breathing came out in gasps the more he explored and her legs tightened around him. Roth added a second digit, pumping them in and out as he sucked her clit in. Her legs started to shake around him and he drove his fingers deeper, faster. She moved with him now, and he knew she was about to come. He was eager for it. His teeth scraped over her nub, and he scissored his fingers. He sucked her clit in as he pushed deep and that was all she needed to fall apart. She screamed his name and he felt her muscles squeeze around him.

  “Roth, oh Roth!” Her grip on his hair became almost painful and she let go.

  He drank her delight and licked his way back up her body, hovering over her and watching the euphoria on her face. Her eyes were closed, her head arched back and she had a dopey, secret smile on her face.

  Roth didn’t give her time to recover before he lined the tip of his cock up to her pussy and rubbed it along her sensitive lips before pushing his way home. April opened her eyes as Roth brushed his lips over hers. “You’re so beautiful. I love knowing I gave you the look of bliss on your face.” He gritted his teeth as he thrust in and out of her until he was buried to the hilt. He relaxed and rested his forehead on hers. “You’re so fucking tight. I’ve never had anyone like you. I’m never leaving you.”

  His leaned down balancing on his elbows and took her mouth to his, devouring her and showing her she was his, would always be his. April wrapped her hands around his back and held him close to her as he pumped into her pussy over and over, giving her everything he had and more. Her legs followed her arms and she helped, pushing up to meet his thrusts every time as he drove into her over and over. Needing release he fought with himself to keep going and wait for her to come again, to prove to her he was worthy of her. Roth changed his pace and angle, propelling himself forward with a fevered momentum. His mouth ravaged hers, hungry for everything she could give. April tore her mouth from his and arched into him. Roth knew it was time to claim her as he should have.

  Nestling into her neck he licked where her shoulder joined her neck and April moaned and turned her head so he had better access. Given the okay, he struck. April screamed at the top of her lungs as his teeth sank in giving her a new mate mark. Her pussy quivered around him squeezing and milking his cock, forcing his tightly wound control to break. He licked over her mark and let himself come, falling against her and letting peace that he hadn’t had in over a year take him. “Mine,” he murmured against her neck. April stroked his back, and he rolled them to the side hugging her close.

  “So we are going to look at the houses tomorrow?”

  He kissed her head. “Yes. Mum organized with the council while you were gone. They are eager to have me around this district.”

  “Okay. What better way for us to get to know one another than to live together? I’ve never lived with anyone before. The last people were my parents.”

  “It will be a new experience for us both then. I’ve never lived with anyone either.”

  “I’m messy,” April whispered.

  “That’s fine. I’m a neat freak. We should balance each other out.”

  She snorted and snuggling into him. “Either that or kill each other.”

  Chapter Three

  Christine, the shifter real-estate for this district, met her and Roth at the first house only three houses down from Clay’s on the other side. The woman was short and round, not what April had expected. Tugging on Roth’s arm as they walked away from the realtor to look around the house, April whispered, “Is she a shifter?”

  “Yes. Christine is an octopus shifter.”

  April couldn’t help laughing. In her wildest imagination she would never have thought of an octopus shifter. “You’re joking right?”

  “No. Any animal you can think of and more are shifters.”

  Wow. April couldn’t believe that. “So there are like mice shifters, snakes, and spiders?” She shivered at just the thought. Shifter or not, when she saw either they didn’t live long near her.

  “I dated a snake shifter once. I think his personality was in line with his animal.” Christine came around the corner. April bit her lip to hold in her giggle. Christine winked at her. “So what do you think of this one?”

  Roth shrugged and looked down at her. Crap. Did that mean he was leaving the choosing to her? This place had done nothing for her. It hadn’t called to her, like her cottage had or Roth. April was also hoping for a house on the beach side. “No, this one isn’t for us. Can you show us the ones on the beach side please?”

  “Sure. There are only two on the beach side, one down the very end and one about ten houses down from this one.”

  “Sounds great, let’s go.”

  April didn’t mind the next house, but she could tell Roth didn’t like it. He was very good at schooling his features, but he couldn’t hide his dislike from her.

  “The last one of the beach in this pocket is down the very end. It’s the last house.”

  Christine drove down to the house to open it while April walked with Roth down the street. April liked this area. A beach house on her child carer wage was never going to happen. Should she be looking at spending money that wasn’t hers?

  “Don’t. I can’t read you, but right now your thoughts are screaming at me.”

  She grinned at him. “Oh really, and what are they saying?”

  “That this area is way out of our budget. That I’m not a doctor like my brother so how could we afford this?”

  Well, it wasn’t exactly what she was thinking, but it was close. “Close enough. I’m a child care worker. You work as like a cop, FBI. I didn’t think they earn enough to own a beach house.”

  He shrugged. “Paranormal Realm pays different from the human one. Plus I haven’t owned a house before this. I’ve never settled down. I’ve lived in houses provided for me by the Paranormal Realm. I’ve had a long time of not spending my money.”

  “What do you mean long time? You couldn�
��t be any older than thirty.”

  Roth laughed a deep belly laughed a pulled her to him and kissed her so deeply he almost had her forgetting her question. “Oh darling, I turned forty last year.”

  Holy crap, he was a lot older than she thought. “Hang on. Isn’t Clay your older brother?”

  “Yeah, he’s ten years older than me.”

  “No way. Holy hell, Alwen is married to an old man.”

  Roth laughed as his mouth brushed hers. She didn’t care how old he was because as soon as his body touched hers her body came alive. She moved closer into his embrace, loving how affectionate he was. “This old man can keep up with you I promise.”

  Easing out of his hold she smirked up at him. “Really … how about I race you to the house? On your mark, get set, go.” Before “go” was out of her mouth April ran down the street.

  April didn’t make it too far before Roth grabbed her waist and placed her over his shoulder in a fireman’s hold, whacking her arse and squeezing it. She squealed in delight as he jogged to the end of the street, showing off.

  Roth gently placed her on the ground and she wrapped her arms around him. “Nice to know you can keep up, old man.” She giggled as he tickled her. April grasped his hands as she got her first look at the house. It didn’t look like a beach house. It was older than the other houses on the street, made with a wooden finish. It reminded her of a gothic little manor.

  Christine came out to meet them. “Now this one needs some work. It’s the oldest in the street, but—”

  “Work can be good.” April walked toward the rickety looking verandah pulling Roth along with her. The stairs up to the door squeaked. She walked into the hall and to her left was a lounge room. She walked further down seeing a bathroom and a closet space under the stairs to the next level. There was a small room, like a sewing room or office, a decent size laundry and then a big open kitchen, dining, family room. The kitchen was huge, with what looked like oak cupboards and a country style to it.

  “There are four bedrooms upstairs and a veranda off the main.” Christine sounded smug, and she should. This was a dream home, well, April’s anyway.

  April was scared to even look at Roth as she let go of his hand and went upstairs. The house was gorgeous. With some paint and things replaced here or there, it could be amazing. Upstairs the house got better. There were two medium sized rooms and one small single room, which a bathroom sat next to. Then there was the master, a massive room with an en- suite. April walked into the bathroom and groaned as her dream bath stared at her with its clawed feet and long length and depth. She went over and lovingly caressed it as she stared out of the window. It looked out off to the water.

  Roth’s arms circled her waist as he nuzzled her neck and nipped at her ear. “We have a winner. I put in an offer while you came upstairs. Christine says she is sure they will accept it. She is calling them now.”

  April leaned back against Roth. “Tell me you like it too, and are not just happy with it because I love it.”

  “No, I knew it was perfect as soon as I saw it. I like that we only have one neighbor and we’ll get to fix it up and make it our own. I have the next three months off, thanks to our mating. I have to go meet my contact and debrief them, but other than that I can dedicate my time to fixing this up.”

  April turned and gazed up at him. “I’m not as lucky as you. I can’t just take three months off. What will I do?”

  Roth stroked her cheek. “I can visit you at work. We can have lunch. We can last that long if I see you at lunch. Clay and Alwen did it, so I’m sure we can. Do you have any holiday time at all you could book in the next three months?”

  “We can make it. I can ask for time off in two months. I need to give plenty of notice. I don’t work on the weekends, and the daycare center I work at is only a fifteen minutes’ drive from here.”

  Roth picked her up, and she wrapped her legs and arms around him. “That’s good.” He walked out of the bathroom onto the verandah where a table sat overlooking the ocean. Gently he placed her on the table and hiked her skirt up, spreading her legs and settling down between them. He buried his face into her heat and nuzzled her.

  “Roth, what about Christine?”

  He grinned up from between her thighs. “Oh, she’s gone back to the office and is giving us time to look around while she phones the owners. She told me to lock up when we leave.”

  “Oh, well, um…” Her voice trailed off as Roth ripped her panties off and pulled them away before spreading her pussy lips and licking her from bottom to top. He sucked her clit in, and his teeth scraped each side of her clit sending little electric jolts of bliss through her. April gasped and arched into his touch. He lapped at her pussy as he sank one long, thick digit into her core and pumped it in and out.

  “Mmm, feels so good,” she panted out as he added another finger and picked up speed. Roth licked, lapped, and sucked her in. April writhed under him, gripping the table. She tightened her legs around him as he added another finger and buried them deep inside her. The knowledge they were doing this in a house that they didn’t even know whether it could be theirs spiked her lust and sent it soaring high.

  “Roth, Roth, Roth,” April chanted as she fell apart and her orgasm came over her. He nipped at her clit, and the sensation sent jolts through her already sensitive body.

  With hooded lids April watched as Roth eased away and quickly shed his pants before he gathered her back to him, pulling her closer to the edge of the desk. Spreading her legs further he lined his cock up with its home and pushed into her core. April moaned and clenched around him as he moved further into her. She leaned back against the table, her elbows helping support her, and wrapped her legs around him to help drive him deeper. Pushing her body up to meet his thrusts, she stared up into his strained face.

  Roth gripped her hips and drove into her over and over, and she felt like she was in heaven, home. Sex had never been this good. April had never felt this overwhelming, consuming passion that she did with Roth.

  Roth thrust into her faster, and she relished his strength and stamina. Closing her eyes she concentrated on the tingling, burning, building sensations in her body. Her tension built high again and she became eager for another release.

  Opening her eyes April sat up, looking at his face as she pushed back at him while he retreated and slid back home.

  “It’s never felt like this before. I feel like I’m going to explode. I love everything you do to me,” she panted out between deep breaths.

  One of his hands fell from her waist, and Roth reached up and stroked her cheek. “You’re my mate April. You’re special. It will always be like this with you.” He leaned down and nibbled on her neck, and his thrusts became shorter. “You’re so gorgeous. I love watching you in the throes of passion.”

  He pumped into her with a purpose, and she was willing to give him what he wanted. She was eager for her release, too. Roth’s teeth scraped over her sensitive skin, and she shivered as tingles shot straight to her pussy.

  “Oh God, Roth, that’s it. Yeah, right there.”

  Roth grunted and pushed into her with deep, hard thrusts that had her moving back. April gripped Roth tight, digging her nails in as she fell apart, pulling herself up and biting his chest and moaning her release. Her body convulsed as euphoria set in, and she felt her pussy quivering and gripping him, holding him, never willing to let go.

  “Fuck,” Roth whispered before he propelled into her and shouted, “April,” as he came hard. His forehead came down to rest on hers as they both fought to catch their breath. “I think I’ll offer extra so we can keep this table.”

  April giggled and kissed him. “I could get used to this.”

  “Good. I want you to. You’re stuck with me.” He took her mouth in a deep searing kiss that left her knowing she was already starting to fall for him. He sighed and eased away from her, pulling his pants up and helping her fix herself up. “If they accept my offer I think I could work somethin
g out so we could start moving in on Monday.”

  “I’d like that. I’ll give my real-estate my four weeks’ notice on Monday.”

  “Great, let’s go tell our family that we’ve found a house.”

  Chapter Four

  They spent the week slowly moving in. Roth spent his time fixing the house and getting it ready to paint. On Monday he’d met his contact in the Paranormal Realm and was told to lie low and that his undercover persona’s funeral was the following day. He was given confirmation he was on hiatus for three months and would become a part of the local Paranormal Realm task force. Creven and Gallanto were dead, but a new guy had taken over and wasn’t doing too well at impressing people. Roth had been asked to write up a report and have it back to them before he commenced his new job.

  This morning he’d gotten up early and let April sleep in. They were going paint shopping when she woke and was ready. This week had gone great. He’d dropped her to work every morning and had come and had lunch with her. They were getting to know each other and the more he learnt about April the more he fell in love with her. She loved with her whole heart and would do anything for someone she loved. He’d learned she was the only child of an older couple. He’d met her parents the previous night, and Roth still couldn’t help blushing at April’s mother’s thoughts about him. April was so much like her mother. They were both outspoken and easy, happy people to get on with. Her dad had been a hard nut to crack. He loved his baby girl and didn’t think Roth was good enough. Well, he didn’t think anyone would be good enough for April. By the end of the night he and April’s father had a truce of sorts. As long as Roth kept April happy her father would keep his mouth shut.

  Roth wondered if it would be too early for him to tell April he loved her. She’d given him everything in such a short time, acceptance, a home, company, and the beginnings of a love that would last forever. Roth was amazed at how easy it was with April. Oh, they’d argued about where to put furniture and what to tell her parents and so on, but not once when they argued did he think it couldn’t be resolved or they couldn’t work it out.
