Taming a Raven

by Kathleen Lash

  Anxiety dwindled as she melted slightly inside. The name he used made her relax. His breath touched her forehead before he gave a gentle kiss on the top of her head. Relief made her arms and legs weak. He’d no intention of beating her.

  A hand slid to the back of her head before easing her closer. She knew where he’d go, what he’d do by how he positioned her. She made it easy by opening her mouth. Time wasn’t wasted as he wet her lips with his tongue. His kisses were addictive and, once given, could be felt beyond her mouth.

  When he entered, her hips came up automatical y and she moved a certain way. She couldn’t name why. She loved the manner in which he went into her mouth, forcing himself inside. A rather large man, al parts of him large, she took the length and breadth of him, running her tongue against his to get as much as possible.

  He laid her upon his bed. He came down alongside and braced his weight on an arm. A hand caressed her stomach before coming to the underside of a breast. Fingers gathered the flesh to bring the nipple high and close to his mouth. His breath moved over the skin and peak before his tongue licked very slowly.

  She’d been tasted before by soft lips and slippery tongues, but the coarse hair above his upper lip created lovely prickles into her skin.

  “Do you want more?” he asked in the voice that came from him yestereve. His tone sounded knowing and hypnotic.

  “Yes.”

  A drop of moisture formed on her nipple before rol ing down. The general groaned before asking, “Have you lied? Are you breeding?” Confused, she answered honestly, “No, you took me before I could be mated.”

  “Your breasts are weeping, Reina.”

  “Sir?”

  His tongue swept up the trail of liquid desire from the side of her breast and he ran it over the sensitive nipple. He plumped her and took the entire peak.

  “Oh, my breast, Sir. It’s never been like this, dripping and flowing. I’m so very wet from your mouth.” He came closer, rested against her side and appeared very comfortable while taking her nipple. His kisses were stronger, his lips firmer than those of a woman. She arched her back to give him everything.

  He released her and his gaze settled on her other breast. “Is your right breast as sweet as the left?”

  “Yes,” she said breathlessly. “General, please taste it. Do it now.”

  “And we’ve come back to a lesson you should’ve already learned.”

  Instantly she remembered. “Gage.”

  “Gage, what? Be specific about your request and you’l have it the first time.”

  “Kiss my breast, please.” His lips trailed the side. She amended, “My nipple, Gage, suck it hard. Now.” His mouth was hot and wet. She grasped his head, held it so he couldn’t leave. He drew liquid desire from the center of her breast until he took it from the nipple. Her mind went to a fuzzy place between reality and dream as her insides tightened and made her ready to come. If he’d use his teeth just a little, gently bite down, she’d… “Oh please, please, don’t stop, not now!”

  “Is there a problem?” Why did he question what he already seemed to know, his tone of voice giving him away?

  “I was going to come.” She remembered to use the correct word.

  “Did you tel me you were close?”

  “No, I—”

  “You need to tel me when you’re close. So I can decide.”

  “Decide what, Sir?”

  “About whether or not to let you. I aided you last night and I’l do so this morn but you’re to tel me when you’re close and I’l decide if you’ve given me enough. It’s how sex wil be between us— if there’s sex between us.”

  “You want control?”

  “In this, I demand it.”

  “It’s yours.” She hadn’t real y relinquished control. In these strange happenings between them sexual y, she’d never had any power to begin with. Gage seemed al -knowing in matters between male and female and she wanted to learn. Oh, how she yearned to know more.

  “Having an agreement,” he said, “I’m going to loosen your pants and take them down. Do you want that, sweet one?” He hadn’t touched her below the waist and the thought of having such done made her clench inside. Moisture seeped between the swol en lips of her sex. “Please, Gage. Bare me for your touch.”

  “Sweet virgin,” he said, undoing the fastening of her pants before aggressively pul ing them down. “Having you ask for what I’l do makes me hard.”

  “How could words do such a thing?”

  “You think I’m immune to you? I know you’re wet and ready for me because your scent betrays you. Give me your hands and know what you do to me.” With him guiding, he drew her hands down over the swel ing at the front of his uniform, al owing her to feel a man for the first time. Firm, ful , incredibly thick and long, she swal owed. Of course it would be large. Everything about him was imposing. Both her hands touched and ran over his length to accustom herself to such a foreign thing. Sounds came from deep in his chest. The purring sounded like one of the cats he’d taken her from. Utterly fascinating!

  “Can you feel how badly my cock wants you, Reina?” She could. His cock being ready to mate made her feel achy and dizzy, hot and cold. Why? She touched him, not the other way around. As she greedily caressed him, he pushed into her hands. He permitted the exploration for mere seconds before taking her wrists and easing them away. “Does it excite you?”

  “Yes, and I wish to see it and put my hands upon it without the cloth. I’ve never felt anything to compare. Would you, Gage? Would you al ow me to see it, touch it?”

  He rose from the bed and unbuttoned his fly. Hurriedly she kicked out of her boots and pants before sitting with her legs tucked beneath. Enthral ed, she watched what he revealed. He slowly parted material before folding it back. Of course she’d seen pictures of men and knew what to expect of their anatomy.

  Oh. My. Stars!

  Having his swol en flesh straining a few inches away made her swal ow convulsively. He’s so generously proportioned! She hesitantly reached for him.

  “Touch me, Reina. See if it’s to your liking.”

  “Oh, Gage, the skin is so soft. You real y don’t mind my touching you?”

  “More.”

  He stood there, so handsome and powerful as she measured him. The top was darker than the rest. A fascinating wine-colored hue dominated its crown. His scent came to her and she gave in to the urge to kiss him. She wanted to do much more. A hand stroked her hair, letting her know he didn’t mind. And with her next kiss, she stole a taste with her tongue.

  “Lick it, sweet one. Al over, any place you want.”

  She very much liked not being scolded for acting on inclinations. His encouragement to explore and experience rather excited and thril ed her. Like other skin, it tasted a bit salty, but combined with his scent, she couldn’t seem to taste enough. His deep growls and the way his hands tangled in her hair had an effect too. Plainly he liked and desired her tongue and mouth. Experienced in the arousal of women, she loved heightening their desire to the point of vocalization. With Gage she felt different, his pleasure somehow flowing into her and quickly making her ready to come.

  She wet his cock with moisture from her mouth and spread it over him until she discovered the sac beneath. The skin was so delicately fabricated!

  She took him within her palm to gently ascertain what lay inside. Intrigued, fil ed with lust, she careful y kissed and tongued and tasted. He sounded quite content to have her give attention to this wondrous part of his body and she wanted very badly to please him.

  “I’m close, sweet one, so close.”

  From that bit of licking she’d done, could he be ready to come? If so, she wanted to make him feel much, just as he’d done to her the eve prior. She’d probably embarrass herself from lack of skil but she’d try to make him come hard. He’d fucked her mouth with his tongue. Would he find it as pleasurable to do the same with his cock? She took the head into her mouth to lightly suck and tongue.

&nb
sp; “Oh God,” he said in a deep, needy voice. “Reina, stop.”

  Stop, ha! His words pleaded for her to cease but his body told another story. He pul ed back slightly before pushing more of himself inside. He wanted—no, he needed—her mouth. The control he’d spoken of earlier suddenly became hers. Confident then, holding him tighter, she did the taking and pul ing away. Power and lust came with control ing him in any manner at al . She found it difficult not to place too much pressure around him.

  She looked up to gauge his level of pleasure, making sure it didn’t only feel good to her. Heavy-lidded eyes gazed into hers as fingers came to the side of her face. A smal , potent amount of liquid came from his shaft. Had he just come?

  “You’re so beautiful with my cock in your mouth. It feels so good, your tongue al over me.” Her eyes closed as she took him and imagined how it would feel to have his thick and swol en cock going into her sex. Disjointed fragments of words came from him, the meaning conveyed as he shifted his pelvis and thrust his magnificent cock out for her to feast.

  “Reina,” he said, his voice barely more than a growl because its tone rumbled so low. “Relax your throat and let me in deep.” She did and took more. As his tongue had done before, his cock mated her mouth and she couldn’t help moving and rocking against him. The urgency of his body was relayed by the manner in which he pumped his fat cock in and out. It felt too wonderful.

  “I’ve not had such done to me—in this manner…” He yel ed the rest of what he’d been saying. “Suck my cock and don’t stop. Suck, God, yes, suck me!”

  Hands held her in place until she didn’t move at al . He kept her there by lightly stroking the sides of her face, running the tips of his fingers around her ears. He swel ed and tightened and fed his cock to her as far as it would go before she felt a massive pulse of fluid. Her throat opened to swal ow again and again. She shuddered in response as her brain shut down. Al she wanted was more and then more! She final y calmed enough to hear his groans.

  and again. She shuddered in response as her brain shut down. Al she wanted was more and then more! She final y calmed enough to hear his groans.

  The sounds of his happiness spread into her as surely as his seed.

  She was crazed and shaken from his climax and her own threatened to erupt. Squeezing her thighs together, wetness trickled. If he’d but thrust into her a few more times she’d come. Oh, she loved him within, potent, hard, weeping his seed. She wanted more, not less but he seemed intent on making her miserable as his flesh pul ed slowly away.

  After releasing him, she closed her mouth and savored his essence, the cream she’d sucked from him. It tasted exquisite, mysterious and made her most eager to have him again. Breath catching inadvertently, arms trembling, she couldn’t move as desire turned into painful, tiny cramps knotting her sex.

  It’d never been so agonizing and she feared her nether lips would swel shut. And if that happened, she’d never be able to press a fingertip to her sweet spot and find relief.

  Gage’s heart slowed with the overpowering lust momentarily appeased. Damn it, he’d barely managed to retain enough wit to remember the woman was a virgin. After the way she took him to throat and finished him, warmth and compassion fil ed his insides.

  Bringing her flush against his chest, he kissed her gently, repeatedly, expressing al he couldn’t say. She’d no tolerance or need of niceties. Her panting and arousal didn’t go unnoticed and he’d see to it soonest. As she remained on her knees in front of him, he stroked her hair and said, “Easy, sweet one, I’ve not forgotten you.”

  He held her waist and kept her steady as he knelt. Smal , shaking hands came to his shoulders. At the perfect height, he said, “Open, Reina. Spread for me.”

  Whimpers came forth but she complied, any shyness or fear overcome by desire. His thumbs careful y pul ed her swol en lips apart and he drank in the rich, exciting scent. It’d been too long since he pleasured a woman thusly and began a bit hastily. His tongue went to her slit and pushed in, finding a swol en bud ready for him. Her desire tasted similar to that which came from her breasts. It had the most intense and delectable flavor. He could spend a long time between her legs savoring her fragrant sweetness.

  He drew her apart to pul back the smal hood before flattening his tongue directly against her clit. She cried out, tossing her head about and shook while her legs inched farther apart. Lightly sucking her smal sex nub made it lengthen and turn rigid.

  He listened, felt and assessed her level of climax, lessening the pressure and urgency of his mouth to match what she required. He’d not have her straining to close her legs because she’d become too sensitive. They’d much more to experience together and his patience was abundant. Tolerantly he waited, stroked and sucked until she widened the distance between her knees. The tel tale sign gave him better access and relayed her want of a deeper intimacy.

  Her hips rocked forward and back, begging him to explore. He slid farther, the tip of his tongue barely piercing her wet entrance. She became wild.

  Her nails scored his shoulders as her body tensed. So sensitive. Magnificent woman!

  He couldn’t believe she’d gotten so wet and hot from sucking him. He slowed her with gentle flicks until she calmed and the orgasm receded. He lazily probed her then, accustoming her to something relatively smal and soft rimming her taut opening. He wanted to place more than a tongue inside and he’d see to it she shared the same craving.

  The flat of his tongue trailed back to her clit and worked it over, showing little mercy. He rather enjoyed her rising desire and the liquid seeping from her pussy. He amused himself then, fooled about until she almost came, withholding the bit of pressure required to complete it. On a third time taking her to the edge, she begged, “Gage, harder!”

  Patience, sweet one. For if I can demonstrate such and suffer a little, so can you.

  He waited until her nails left his shoulders and her fingers tangled in his hair. Yes, he believed she’d accept more from him then. His cheek came up to rest against her stomach as his hands slid to her ass. Holding her tightly until the trembling slowed, he asked, “Have I seen to you, sweet one?”

  “Mmm.”

  Mmm, indeed. He stood and took her hands from his hair, kissed each before turning her slightly and easing her down. On her hands and knees and in a perfect position, he stroked her shoulder. “You’l open to me, Reina. Spread yourself wide.”

  “Gage?” He’d tolerate her reluctance because she knew not where they’d go. But eventual y he’d need to remedy her insistence on questioning him.

  His hands rubbed her ass cheeks firmly, bringing them apart. “Show yourself to me. I wish to examine what I brought to climax. If you’re properly wet, I’l make you come again.”

  Whimpers came as she spread, which made him ache. The sounds of indecision fol owed by compliance made his blood race. He’d never seen such moisture and appreciated yet another unique and desirable facet of a raven. He lightly stroked the wet crease, which dampened the inside of both thighs.

  “It’s just my fingers, Reina. Relax and let me in.”

  Her legs spread a little more and he caressed her swol en flesh. He placed a fingertip at her opening and felt her muscles contract. Never been entered. Dismayed, he said, “You couldn’t possibly have resisted this, never tested inside.” Her head shook slightly as she panted. “Never. Not permitted. For breeding. Kept chaste for you—a male.”

  “I am male,” he said. He’d have no part in taking her virginity for breeding however. Others of his kind might not find it offensive to have children scattered among the stars. His thoughts on the matter differed greatly. He’d probably forever remain chemical y sterilized, for he doubted he’d ever trust a woman enough to breed one.

  His other hand slid down her side before finding her clit slickened with cream. He skil ful y rubbed while gradual y increasing the pressure. Her body swayed and on each backward motion, he didn’t move quite as much. She wanted to be penetrated and he’d ev
entual y oblige.

  “Does my finger feel good?”

  “Oh,” she panted. “Mmm, ahh!”

  What a sight, having his middle finger lined up and ready to enter her pussy. She tightened as he circled the opening. His cock jerked, ready to take the virgin territory.

  “I’m going to come,” she cried with alarm.

  “Not yet, Reina, hold back.”

  “No, no, I’m sorry, but I can’t.”

  “You wil .”

  He stopped rubbing as his forearms brought her body close so he could cease its motion. She squirmed and moaned at having the climax denied.

  He needed her patience for a few moments longer. The instant her muscles relaxed, he thought to hurry the process and achieve his goal. Her muscles constricted and she tried to capture the tip of his finger.

  “I need to come, Gage, please.” She panicked, trembled and slight contractions vibrated her pussy. He held tighter, making her remain stil .

  “Let it pass, Reina. Settle down and calm yourself.”

  “No, please. Oh, it hurts so. Please let me come.”

  No woman ever begged him to climax. They’d trusted him to bring release and he hoped on some level she had at least that much faith too. But he’d never been with such a lust-fil ed female. She needed release and demanded it now.

  “I’l bring you to climax but I want something of you first. Do as I say and the next time you’l come, I promise.” He slowed his breathing, forced rigid muscles to loosen so he could finish what he’d started. He contemplated what to do. His finger hovered, cock ached but a greater need suddenly dominated him. His physical aches became secondary to gaining her compliance. She struggled to obey and he waited. As she came to stil ness and settled against his hands, he admired her control and savored his conquest. Now for her reward. His fingers spread flesh before finding and fingering her clit.

  “Gage!”

  “Now, sweet one. Come fast and hard and wet my finger. Yes, grind your clit against me and come.” She bucked against his hands, her pussy vibrating with the orgasm. He could only imagine what he’d feel with his cock stuffed inside as she climaxed. Lust flared again and his desire yawned. You’ve fucked her mouth and shot your seed in her throat. You’ve warmed her pussy, given her a taste so when you push your cock in, she’ll scream in pain and delight. Take it all, claim her—all of her!
