Caspian leans me back to the ground. I throw my arms out, running my fingers through the blades of grass. He’s going to fuck me in the soil. The soil... How I love the soil. This earth, that was my first home.
Caspian grabs the edges of his T-shirt and peels it off. My core tightens and heat flashes through me. Caspian has always been beautiful, seeming to me like a poet captured in an old painting. But with the T-shirt creeping over the hard planes of his body, I have to intentionally close my mouth from its gaping position.
He tosses the T-shirt to the side, and a laugh bubbles out of me. He raises a brow. “Not the reaction I was hoping for.”
“It’s just…I never expected to see you with tan lines.”
He looks down over his arms, then at his chest. “What, do you think I’m going to be like Dayton, running around with my shirt off all day? It’s undignified.”
“I wouldn’t mind,” I purr.
“Greedy girl.” A low growl rumbles in his throat, and he lowers over me, kissing my shoulders. “You have no idea the amount of self-restraint I’ve been showing, so please, allow me to indulge.”
With that, he buries his face in my breasts. I gasp, his hands massaging and pinching my nipples, before his mouth replaces them, hot and needy.
My back bows against him, our hips grinding together. Despite the jeans, his cock is steel-hard and presses against me. My core aches for him.
Desperately, I reach for the button of his jeans, trying to maintain control over my body as he laps and sucks at my breasts. Wetness pools between my thighs, and I swear I may combust before I get his jeans off.
Caspian pulls away, but not before grabbing my face for a fevered kiss. Then, without giving me a moment to breathe, he snatches my panties and tears them off. The cooling air makes me gasp, but whatever chill was there is replaced with his hot mouth.
My hands tear at the grass, and a cry escapes my throat, the sound bouncing over the lake. Caspian’s relentless, gorging himself on me like I’m his oxygen, not the other way around.
Fucking perfect, he murmurs in my mind, his lips too busy for words.
His tongue caresses my entrance, each stroke sending flashes of lightning up my spine. The sun has dipped below the tree line, the sky as purple as Caspian’s eyes as he peers up at me.
“T-too good,” I gasp.
I’m not close to done.
His fingers are bruising on the soft flesh of my thighs as he drags me harder against his face. I reach down, sinking my hands into his long hair. My body feels like it’s going to explode into light, and I’ll become a shooting star across the lake.
“C-Cas,” I cry out.
Come for me, Princess.
His words are my command, and my orgasm spirals through me. Caspian refuses to relent even as I yank on his hair, his mouth a constant warmth against my core.
Finally, my arms fall limp to my sides, and I stare upward, gazing at the darkening sky. Caspian’s tongue licks the inside of my thighs, like he couldn’t spare a drop, before he kisses up my body, over my stomach, my breasts, my throat.
Now it’s my turn to command. I dig my fingers into the belt loops of his jeans. “Get these off.”
A crooked smile runs up his face. His stubble is shiny with my wetness. Cas sits and pulls off his shoes and pants. His erection bulges hard against his black boxer briefs, and my mouth waters at the sight.
I press his shoulder, flipping us so his back is to the soil and I’m over him. Slowly, as if unwrapping a present, I grip the band of his boxers. “I’ve missed you,” I whisper.
“Same.” He twists to grab his pants and dig in the pocket, pulling out a small, foiled square.
My eyes widen. “Is that a condom?”
“Is this so strange? It’s been a while since you’ve had Marigold’s tea concoction, is that not so?” He shrugs. “Besides, when in the human realm, do as the humans do.”
First jeans, now this. Is this to be our life from now on?
But his thoughtfulness does fill me with warmth. “I just can’t imagine you in the store buying condoms.”
“Trust me, Princess.” Caspian smiles, ripping it open. “The hardest part was getting Dayton to pick a normal one. I didn’t want anything to do with cherry flavoring.”
