Chapter 16 - Romantic Mating

(Angeline POV)

I rubbed my nose as I stared out the window and watched Paradise run from Emrick.

"OW! I'm hurt." Paradise whined as Emrick grabbed her and laid on the ground with her.

I knew she was faking it because I use to do that all the time too. It was the best way to win the game and flirt with the guy at the same time and of course, she was good at it.

"Baby, are you okay. Come here, let me see." Emrick placed his hands on the ground to push himself up giving Paradise enough time to escape.

She wasn't fast enough though because Emrick pulled her back down and rolled on top of her. I watched as the two of them stared into each other's eyes.

Paradise reached up and caressed Emrick's cheek and then he leaned down and kissed her passionately.

I sighed. Even though they were a pain in my ass they did make a very cute couple. I smiled to myself and then shook my head. I can't let them get to me I was here on a mission and nothing could throw me off.

I was about to turn around and walk away from the window but a pair of hands wrapped themselves around my body.

"What do you think you're doing, beautiful?" Leviticus whispered in my ear as he slowly pulled my body back into his chest.

"It's not polite to eavesdrop on people." He nibbled my ear and then he picked me up and carried me over to the bed.

"Leviticus, what are you doing?!" I shouted and laughed as he softly tossed me on the bed and laid his body on top of mine.

I laughed and laughed until I looked up at him and saw him staring at me.

"What is it?" I asked with a worried look on my face. Leviticus' eyes were glossy and he had this look on his face.

It was almost like he was staring right through my soul.

"Nothing, beautiful, I just.. I just really really love you. Everything about you gets me and completes me. I thought I was going to be alone forever, but you came and changed that for me."

He continued to stare into my eyes and then he leaned down to kiss my lips.

"I'm here to stay Leviticus and nothing is going to change that okay." I slid my fingers through his hair and gently tugged him down so that my lips would connect with his easily.

We started off as kissing but things started to escalate. Layers and layers of clothes started to fly every which way but I was okay with that because I wanted this and needed this.

I wanted to cherish every moment with my mate that I could because when I'm done with my plan we probably won't see each other for a century or two.

I stared into his eyes and he placed himself in me and whispered 'I love you' in my ear. I gripped his back and released a low but loud moan in the back of my throat. God, I loved this man.

(Emrick's POV)

After Paradise and I stopped our kissing we headed back into the house and went upstairs to take a bath.

Normally our showers together were short or interrupted but I knew Leviticus was having sex and Emerald was gone into town with mother, so everything would work out just the way I needed it too.

Tonight was the night I was going to mate with Paradise completely and mark her as well.

While we were outside my dad set up all the candles in my room leading to the bathroom and he laid chocolate-covered strawberries all over the bed in the shape of a heart.

I wanted her first time to be special, I needed this to be special for her and that's the way it was going to be.

I slowly followed behind her as she ranted about school and how she had so much fun at the carnival. I let her get carried away so that when she walked through the door her reaction would be even more perfect.

"Yeah, but we should go to the carniva-." Paradise stopped what she was saying and placed a hand over her mouth and the other over her stomach.

She then turned towards me,

"It's beautiful Emrick." She whispered as she continued to walk deeper into the room.

I slowly trailed behind her with the biggest smile on my face. Tonight was the night and I couldn't be even happier, I knew that everything was perfect for her and that she would remember this night for the rest of her life.

I watched her as she walked into the bathroom and stopped. She stared at the rose petals and bubbles in the tub.

Instead of waiting for her to say anything I slowly walked behind her and pushed away one of her sleeves exposing her shoulder. I placed kisses all over her neck and exposed her shoulder as I caressed her bottom.

"All this for me?" Paradise moaned as she leaned her neck to the left side giving me more space to kiss.

"Yes, my love, all for you," I said through the kisses I was giving her.

After a while, I slowly took off each layer of her clothes and mine as well and sat her down in between my legs in the tub water.

She sighed and laid her head on my chest and drifted off to sleep. I was okay with that because I knew she was going to need it. The mating process takes a lot of energy out of you and with her being a human it was going to drain her.

I pressed my body against the back of the tub and leaned my head back and rubbed Paradise hair. I decided to watch over her while she slept and planned out everything else I was going to do. I knew that once she was mated tonight everything for us was going to change.

My mother would start to plan for the ball and put the girls through so many classes just so they would be prepared. All this is a little too much for Paradise, but it's something that needs to be done, especially for the future of the kingdom.

"Hmm, I can't believe I fell asleep. I feel so refreshed." She turned her neck around just enough to look at my face.

"It's okay love, the mating process requires as much energy as you can give." I ran my fingers through her hair and kissed her head.

"Come on, let's get you out of here and enjoy the rest of our night."

I watched her as she got up and then I followed behind, she let out a little giggle as she reached the room. She laid down on the part of the bed that wasn't covered in chocolate strawberries and reached over to put one in her mouth.

She stared into my eyes as she slowly bit the strawberry, I guess the flavors caught her by surprise because she closed her eyes and moaned a low moan.

I watched her as she grabbed another strawberry, but this time she ran it up and down her beautiful, brown, wet, sexy naked body.

She winked at me as she slowly put the strawberry in her mouth,

"Are you going to come and take what's yours? I'm giving it to you." I didn't hesitate to speed over to her and flip her over so that I was on the bottom.

I let her go her own pace and do what she wanted before I took her for my own. She felt all over my body and kissed every inch of me. I let out a breath as she made her way down to my shaft.

For her to be so new to this she knew what she was doing. I watched her take me in both of her hands as I bit my bottom lip. With a look of determination and devotion, she slowly started to stroke my shaft.

It didn't take her long to speed up her strokes, and eventually, take all of me in her mouth. The feelings of euphoria erupted throughout my body as she took more of me into her throat.

I could just release right now but I knew it wasn't time for that. Paradise let out a yelp as I flipped her over so that I was on top. Her eyes were just as glossy as mine and that made me even more sure that everything was going to work out.

I slowly kissed every inch of her body and gave extra attention to both of her gorgeous chocolate nipples, they were nice and plumb crying for my name every time I paid attention to one and not the other.

I trailed my tongue down her body until I reached her center, I flicked my tongue across her clit and then pulled back. She squirmed and tried to pull me back down but I wouldn't budge.

"Patience my love, let me take my time with you."I nodded my head at her and she nodded frantically while biting her bottom lip.

I turned my head back to her center and finished what I started.

"Don't stop!" She said as she moaned loudly.

I pulled back as she let out a sad whimper that was soon replaced by a loud moan.

I inched myself inside of her and held it there giving her some time to get used to my size.

"Does it hurt? Are alright?" I whispered in her ear while trying my best not to move.

"Just a little my love, what are you doing? Go!" She looked up at me with a face that I couldn't say no to.

I slowly started moving inside of her and then picked up my pace when she dug her fingers into my back.

I was close to my release and the way her muscles gripped me I could tell she was too. I looked into her eyes and whispered "vos autem mea in sempiternum" and then I nodded for her to repeat what I had just said.

She repeated the words as she stared into my eyes and then she rolled them back as I increased my speed. I placed my face in the crook of her neck and released inside of her as she wrapped her legs around my waist and did the same.

I stayed right there for a while longer and then I rolled over but not before giving my sleeping mate a kiss on her head. I adjusted her body so that she was in my arms and then I fell asleep.
