The Ember In The Dark

Ch. 28

Toni was leaning against a tree, his leg bent beside him. He was looking up at the stars again. I think

that is his favorite pastime at night. He's always looking up.

"Hey." I snuck up on him. He didn't jump though.

"Hello beautiful." I think my heart just stopped and restarted. He was giving me that sexy crooked smirk

of his.

"Thank you for meeting me." I started fidgeting with my fingers, getting shy suddenly.

"Anytime you want me to come, I'll be here." He grabbed my face, forcing me to look up at him.

"I have some good news." I smiled excitedly at him.

"Oh? What is it?" His fingers started to play with a strand of my hair giving me goosebumps. It made

me want his skin against my own.

"I got my dragon."

His smile mirrored my own. He was just as excited for me as Ash was. He really cares for me and

respects me.

'Thank you Goddess. She's so happy.' Toni's thoughts enter my mind.

He was truly happy for me. I really do have the best mate. He's made for me. I feel so sure of our mate

bond now. There are no more doubts plaguing my mind. Lien can feel the pull to Toni too. He's mine

and mine alone.

I pinched his shirt and pulled on it a little. He took a step forward brushing my arms with his fingertips.

Fireworks erupted inside me under his touch. He stared at my lips with hunger. I caged my lower lip

between my teeth, trying to contain my own hunger for him.

His hands trailed up my arms to my neck and towards my face. His thumb rubbed against my lip gently,

causing me to open my mouth ever so slightly. I nibbled his thumb, causing him to lick his lips.

"Ember." He spoke my name with such a need.

I sucked on the tip of his finger and he growled lightly.

'If she keeps this up I don't know that I'll be able to stop myself.' Toni's inner thoughts reached me.

I stopped sucking on his finger and started kissing his neck just below his jaw line. I licked his neck,

clutching his shirt in my hands. I want him. No, I need him.

Toni couldn't take my teasing anymore. He grabbed my face between his hands and pulled me towards

him. His lips began their assault on my own. There was no tenderness tonight, just a lot of desire and

lust. His hands wandered down my back and his fingers brushed against my ass. I pressed myself

closer to his chest allowing my breasts to push against his pecs.

My back arched as desire coursed through me. Toni's tongue entered my mouth tasting every corner. A

small moan left me, muffled against his lips. I want to feel his bare skin against my own.

I played with the hem of his shirt, slowly lifting it up. I let my hand memorize every dip of his muscles.

His skin was warm and soft, but his muscles were strong and hard. He grunted in pleasure as I

continued lifting his shirt up. Our lips broke apart for a moment while I slipped his shirt over his head.

"Are you sure about this Ember?" His chocolate eyes met my emerald ones.

"I just know that I want to feel your skin against my own."

With that, Toni's lips found my own again. Our tongues danced and my hands ran down his abs. The

feel of his muscles coiling under my hands had me growling with desire. Toni grabbed the hem of my

shirt and quickly lifted it off me. His hands grabbed my sides tightly, pulling me closer to him. My

abdomen was pushed against his hard abs. My breasts were barely contained by my bra the way they

were pressed up against his chest.

Toni's fingertips wandered up my back, sending goosebumps down my spine. I felt his fingers play with

the clasp of my bra before it came undone. He broke away from my lips placing open mouth kisses on

my neck and down my shoulder. He grabbed my bra strap with his teeth and took it off, grazing my skin

along the way. The only thing holding my bra on right now was his chest against my own. I inhaled that

intoxicating scent of his causing my bra to fall.

Toni's chest grazed against the hardened buds of my n*pples causing another moan to leave my lips.

His hand grabbed a handful of my hair at the back of my neck. He tugged lightly on it, not to cause me

pain, but to have me lift my head back. He used that to lick and suck at my neck. His teeth grazed my

marking spot and my heart began to race uncontrollably.

My head was in a lust filled daze. Nothing occupied my brain but Toni, his touch, and his body. Toni

lifted me up, wrapping my legs around his hips and laying me down on a soft patch of grass. His

tongue licked down me from my neck to between my breasts to above my navel. His hands grabbed at

the waistband of my pants. He began to pull them down a bit, stopping for a moment to look me in the

eyes. When I didn't stop him he continued.

He pulled my pants off, throwing them behind him. The only piece of fabric left on me was my red silk

panties, that were very obviously soaked with my need for him. Toni began to place open mouthed

kisses up my inner thigh until he reached the wet spot between my thighs.

He slipped his finger on the waistband of my underwear pulling on them so they snapped back at me. It

wafted the scent of my arousal around us. He growled loudly letting me know how desperately he

wanted me. I had a hard time keeping my eyes open. They kept wanting to close and focus on his

touch.

Toni hooked his finger over the waist of my underwear and pulled them down. He threw them by my

pants. I felt so exposed right now. No one has ever seen me this naked before. The hunger in his eyes

as he looked at my naked flesh made me feel so wanted, washing away any timidness I was feeling.

Toni parted my wet folds with his index finger, feeling the slickness he has caused. His finger slowly

penetrated me, causing me to arch my back in pleasure.

"Fuck Ember, you're so tight." His seductive voice was breathier than usual.

His mouth began to suck on my pulsating cl*t and I couldn't help but let my eyes roll back. My hips

lifted toward his mouth, slowly moving against his face. His finger continued to slide in and out of me,

slowly getting deeper and deeper in me. His other hand reached up and cupped my breast.

"Toni." My voice came out shaky.. almost breaking with the ecstacy his finger and mouth were bringing

me.

He continued his pace only adding another finger. It was a little uncomfortable at first, but as I adjusted

it began to feel nice again. The strong muscles of his tongue danced over my cl*t. With every flick of his

tongue my moans got louder. Eventually I couldn't hold it anymore and I just climaxed over his face and

fingers.

Toni slid his fingers out and placed gentle kisses on the flesh of my stomach and chest. Eventually he

licked my n*pple making me moan again. How can I still be so turned on after just having orgasmed?

Toni kissed my neck and I felt his teeth graze my skin. I grabbed his face and pulled him up to me,

kissing those soft lips of his again.

"Thank you." I told him.

"For what?" He asked, kissing me again.

"For being mine. For being patient. For that orgasm you just gave me." I blushed again.

"Oh I don't know if you should thank me for that last one. I have your moans engraved in my mind for

later." He winked at me and I realized what he meant. He was going to whack off to me. My cheeks

burned at the thought. "You know you're really cute when you blush." He buried his head in my neck

like he couldn't take it. "Too cute." He shook his head.

"Toni?" He lifted his head meeting my eyes again. "Do you think you can wait another week to mark

me? I want to get through this summit before I let you mark me." I wanted to be honest with him.

"I'll wait however long it takes." His eyes were filled with care, maybe even love. "I will warn you that

the longer you wait the wilder Reep will get. I won't hurt you Ember, but it may not be as gentle as I

would like your first time to be." He drew wide circles on my abdomen with his fingertips as he spoke.

"I'll keep that in mind."

Toni handed me my clothes and I got dressed. We laid on the grass, cuddled against each other,

staring at the stars for a while.
