Reawakening the Dragon (Stonefire Dragons 4)

Chapter One

The instant after Kai shut the door to his cottage, he pulled Jane close and kissed her.

Stroking the inside of her mouth, he reveled in her taste, yet it wasn’t enough. Kai wanted to feel Jane’s soft, naked skin against his.

His dragon growled. Now. I want her.

For once, he agreed with his dragon.

Breaking the kiss, Kai lightly traced his way across her cheek with his lips until he reached her ear. He nibbled and licked a few times before he whispered, “Go upstairs, strip, and wait for me on my bed.”

Jane pushed against his chest and he leaned back until he met her eyes. “Aren’t you coming?”

“Not yet, Janey.” He moved his hand to her breast and pinched her already hard nipple. “I have a surprise for you. But to give it to you, I need you to be naked.”

She studied him and Kai tugged her nipple again. Jane let out a sound that wasn’t quite a moan, and he smiled.

“So, you want to play that game, huh?” Jane asked.

His human laid a hand on his chest, and slowly stroked down his abdomen until she stopped at his waistband. As her light touch danced across his skin, he held his breath. Humans were rarely so bold.

He loved that Jane was different.

Undoing the button of his trousers, she moved her hand to just below the band of his boxers. His beast growled. Yes, yes. Just a little more.

Before Kai could reply, Jane took his dick in hand and squeezed lightly. Pleasure mixed with heat rushed through Kai’s body and he groaned. “Janey.”

Her voice was husky as she replied, “Unless your surprise is your cock tied in a bow, save it for later.”

His dragon chimed in. Just fuck her now. We can mete out our payback later.

No. I want her first time with me to erase any memory she has of other males. It must be special.

Jane stroked up his dick and back down. Unable to concentrate enough to talk with both his beast and Jane, he shoved his dragon away and whispered, “No. Go upstairs, strip, and wait for me.”

Running a finger up his cock, Jane traced circles on the tip. Each light caress against his sensitive skin chipped at his resolve.

His human was a bloody minx.

Taking a deep breath, Kai mustered every ounce of self-control he possessed and said, “Upstairs, Jane. This is your last chance; otherwise, I’ll toss you over my shoulder and tie you to the bed.”

The corner of her mouth ticked up. “Is that supposed to be a threat?”

Bloody hell. Jane was bolder than he’d imagined. She really was everything he wanted in a female. “It will be if I tie you and tease you for hours before I let you come.”

“As much as I’d like to see you try, I want you too much to wait that long.” Jane slowly removed her hand from his boxers, lightly scratching his cock as she went.

Kai nearly grabbed her wrist to guide her back, but remembered why he wanted to make their first time memorable, so he clenched his fingers instead.

Placing a hand on her hip, Jane tilted her head. “Your surprise had better be worth it, Kai. Otherwise, you’re going to owe me one.”

Unclenching his fingers, he reached out and cupped Jane’s breast. As he squeezed and rubbed his palm against her hard nipple, he stated, “Oh, believe me. It’ll be worth it.” He squeezed her breast one more time. “Go, Janey. Unless you don’t want to come harder than you ever have in your life.”

The scent of Jane’s arousal grew stronger. His human was nice and wet for him already.

Mischief mixed with heat danced in Jane’s eyes. “I’ll hold you to that. If you deliver, I might make you come harder than you ever have before too.”

His beast snarled. Stop talking and hurry up. I want her.

Kai released his grip on her breast and stepped back. “Then get going. If you’re not naked, then after I tie you up, I might have to rest some more before I feel up to sex.”

Jane rolled her eyes. “As if you could hold back.” Kai opened his mouth, but she beat him to it. “Just don’t take too long. If you do, then I might just have to take care of myself.”

With a smile, Jane turned and swayed her hips. Kai should say something to get in the last word, but he was entranced by his human’s full arse.

His dragon spoke up again. It will be hard not to take her from behind today.

I agree, dragon, I agree.

As soon as Jane ascended the stairs, Kai shook his head to break the spell and headed into the kitchen. He needed to retrieve something before he could give Jane her surprise and finally claim his human completely.

Jane opened the door to Kai’s bedroom. It was the first time she’d stepped foot inside it, but it was bare like her room, with just a bed, nightstand, clock, and lamp. Everything seemed bare in Kai’s life.

Well, she hoped to change that.

Aware that Kai could enter at any moment, Jane stripped off her top and jeans. Despite her earlier bravado downstairs, she hesitated to shuck her bra and panties. It’d been a few years since a man had seen her completely naked.

But then she remembered it was Kai coming for her. She could have overgrown toenails and unshaven armpits and he’d still want her.

Tossing her bra and panties to the side, she crawled onto the bed.

While she was following Kai’s orders, he’d left them vague. She would add her own spin to it.

Jane leaned against the headboard and gripped her elbows over her head, making her small breasts more prominent. Then she lay her feet flat on the bed and spread her legs wide.
