Reawakening the Dragon (Stonefire Dragons 4)

He snorted. “Oh, really? Are you a psychic now, too?”

She pulled back and looked up at him. “I would almost think you’re teasing me.”

The corner of his mouth ticked up. “Kai Sutherland doesn’t have a sense of humor. That’s what everyone says.”

“I think he does. It’s just a bit rusty.”

She tickled his good side and a bark of laughter escaped bef

ore he could stop it. Jane removed her hand and grinned. “That laugh sounded pretty rusty, too. I’m going to have to coax it out of you some more.”

“I have a better idea.”

He flipped Jane onto her back and tickled her side. As her laughter rang out, he couldn’t help smiling.

Then she kicked him in the balls and pain shot through his body. “Bloody hell, woman, are you trying to make me a eunuch?”

Jane’s eyes were bright and she put on a look of fake innocence. “I can’t control my legs when you tickle me. It’s your own fault.”

Ignoring the dull pain in his balls, Kai removed his condom, tossed it aside, and then laid on top of Jane. “Then we’ll just have to make sure you’re restrained.”

“Don’t you dare, Kai.”

As he tickled her again, he enjoyed the feel of her body wiggling under his. Only because his dick was still soft from Jane’s kick did he not put on another condom and take her again.

Instead, he switched to caressing her side and nibbling her neck. His female started to relax and he murmured, “You’re going to ride me again as an apology, Jane. But first, I’m going to make you come again.”

“Kai, you just can’t—“

He shut her up with a kiss. Jane melted as he devoured the inside of her mouth. Raising his hips, she moved her legs to wrap around his waist.

The time for talking was over. Kai was ready to play.

Chapter Two

Ten days later, Jane stood on the edge of one of the dragon landing areas and watched as her dragonman performed a series of dives, twirls, and escape maneuvers in the air. Bram, Dr. Sid, and Aaron, Kai’s second-in-command, were at her side.

To Jane, Kai looked to be in full fighting-force again. But she wasn’t a dragon-shifter, so she glanced at Bram and Sid. Their faces were unreadable as always, so she looked to Aaron.

While she was still getting to know the dragonman, Aaron Caruso was one of the more approachable clan members she’d met so far. He always had a smile and liked to tease everyone. Of course, there had to be more to him than he allowed Jane to see.

Still, Kai trusted Aaron despite the fact the dragonman had only recently returned from living abroad with his mother for a few years. If Kai trusted him, then so would she.

Before she could ask her question, Aaron looked over at her and raised his brows. “Is it killing you yet, not knowing whether he’s cleared to fly again for missions?”

Jane frowned. “What do you think?”

Aaron grinned. “I think you can wonder a bit longer.”

Bram grunted. “Aaron, what do you think will happen if I tell Kai you’re flirting with his female?”

Aaron looked innocent. “What are you talking about? I would never do that.”

Bram murmured, “Remind me to strangle my cousin for bringing you back from Italy. You should’ve stayed there.”

Aaron shrugged. “Mum said she missed the rain. Not that I understand how that’s possible.”

Jane knew their stay in Italy had had something to do with Aaron’s mother, but she hadn’t found out what it was just yet.
