“Mal…please…” There was a desperate edge to her voice that Mal had never heard before, never even imagined. It told him she wanted more, but it also told him she believed he could give her exactly what she wanted. She had faith in him. Even if he didn’t quite know what he could do to give her what she wanted.


He could try, though. He dragged his hand up her ribs until he reached her pert breasts. Mal brushed his thumb over her nipple, and it immediately hardened. She keened, her back arching, her head dropping back. Her muscles fluttered around his cock again, and her skin flushed red. Mal could withstand her first climax, but not the second, and his cock jerked against her walls, shooting deep within her.


Christian collapsed on his chest with a long, shuddering sigh.


Mal frowned at the question. It wasn’t quite the response he expected. “Why wouldn’t I?”


“I just…never felt anything like that before.”


“Are you going to have to leave soon?”
