“Can you feel that?”

“Yes.”

His smile widened. “Interesting.”

He stroked upward again, less tentatively this time, tracing the curve before circling the pointed tip with his thumb. My tail moved without conscious direction, curling around his ankle.

Rowan glanced down. “Is that a good sign?”

“It means I like what you’re doing.”

“Good.”

He leaned forward and closed his lips around the tip of my horn.

The sensation was unlike anything I’d experienced before. Warmth enveloped a part of me that had never known it, followed by the wet glide of his tongue. The pressure traveled through the horn and settled somewhere much lower, making my cock harden.

Rowan pulled back just enough to look at me. “Really interesting.”

“You knew that would happen?”

“I hoped.”

He took the horn into his mouth again. Deeper this time. One hand gripped the base while his tongue curled around it, his lips sliding over the smooth surface. The sight of him willingly putting such an obvious sign of my inhumanity into his mouth sent a surge of possessiveness through me.

My tail tightened around his leg.

“Careful,” he murmured against my horn. “You’ll pull me over.”

I unwound it from his ankle, only to curl it around his waist instead and hold him steady. He gave an approving hum that vibrated through my skull, then sucked harder.

“Rowan.”

He continued until I threaded my fingers into his hair and gently pulled him away. His lips were wet and swollen, his pupils dilated enough to turn his blue eyes almost black.

“You liked that,” he said.

“Yes.”

“I could tell. Your tail gave you away.”

“I wasn’t trying to hide it.”

He ran his hand down the length of the appendage encircling his waist. I felt every stroke. When he reached the pointed end, it curled around his wrist. “And you can feel this too?”

“Yes.”

“How much of you is sensitive?”

“All of me.”

His gaze swept slowly over my body. “That sounds like a challenge.”

I rose to my full height, taking Rowan with me. He gave a startled yelp as his feet left the floor and wrapped his arms around my neck.

“Show-off.”

“You wanted to see what I can do.”
