Elsa yanked up his T-shirt to his chin and then sucked in an appreciative breath at the work of art she’d just revealed. Brand’s chest and abs were well defined. She scooted lower on his thighs and used her tongue and lips to explore all those muscles, learning all the planes and angles.
She continued her downward travel until she reached the top of his jeans. Elsa licked the strip of skin just above it as she undid the button and zipper. She parted the material and pushed down the waistband until Brand’s cock sprang free. Since he wore no underwear, there wasn’t any other barrier between her and his erection. She looked at it and licked her lips. Brand was a big man in every sense of the word.
Elsa dragged a finger down the length of Brand’s cock. It jerked in response. He felt like velvet-wrapped steel. She imagined how good it would feel to have it moving in and out of her pussy. Before that happened, she wanted to taste him and thoroughly explore that part of him.
With her fingers wrapped around his thickness, Elsa pumped her hand up and down. Brand lifted his hips, pushing his cock into her grip as she stroked him. He grew even harder. Giving him one last pump, she fisted his shaft at the base. She bent her head and laved the very tip with the flat of her tongue, licking away the bead of precum that had leaked from it. Brand let out a deep moan.
She opened her mouth and took him inside, almost taking him to the back of her throat before she slid him almost out. Her head bobbed as she sucked him in and out. Brand buried his hands in her hair, and Elsa felt a slight prickling sensation along her scalp where he held her.
Brand let her pleasure him this way for only minute more before he pulled her up his body and rolled them so she ended up on the bottom. She then sucked in a sharp breath when he undid the front clasp of her bra and took a nipple into his mouth. He ran a hand down her side before he lifted himself slightly to undo her jeans. They were pushed down past her hips along with her panties, and Elsa helped him peel them off her. She thought for sure he’d settle between her legs and sink his cock into her pussy, but Brand released her nipple and shifted even farther down her body.
He wedged his wide shoulders between her thighs and dragged his tongue along her wet opening. “You taste as good as you smell,” he said, his voice husky.
“Yes,” she said, panting. He licked her again, circling her clit. “Don’t stop. More.”
Brand licked and sucked on the small bundle of nerves that was the center of her pleasure, alternating that with stiffening his tongue and pushing it inside her pussy. Elsa’s arousal continued to build. Her body coiled tighter, edging ever nearer to release. She ground herself against his mouth, unable to hold still any longer.
He pushed his tongue inside her pussy while a finger stimulated her clit. Elsa moaned as she came, her inner walls clutching, pleasure washing over her in waves. Brand continued to work her, making her climax go on and on. Once it was over, her body went limp, and she fought to catch her breath. She’d never come so hard just from oral sex. Brand was definitely a keeper.
He rose above her before he lowered himself on top of her to nuzzle the side of her neck. Elsa opened her legs wider, thinking this time he’d take her, but once again, he didn’t. Brand placed a hard thigh between hers, his still erect cock pressing against her hip. She dropped her hands to his ass to urge him in the position she wanted. He didn’t budge.
“Brand?” she asked, not understanding why he held back.
He nipped her neck before he licked it. “I’m not taking you on the floor,” he said.
She smiled. “In that case, my bed is just a short walk away. We can move this to my bedroom.”
“How about we finish our drinks first? Let things simmer a bit.”
Elsa shivered in anticipation. She could wait a little bit longer to have Brand. It would only make their coming together more intense, especially since she doubted she’d be able to stop thinking about having him.
“Okay,” she said. “We’ll finish our drinks and then move to the bedroom.”
Brand rolled off her and stood in one smooth movement. Elsa sat up and reached for her jeans and panties. She sighed to herself when he shoved his cock back inside his pants and zipped them up. She could wait. It might kill her, but she could do it.
Brand watched Elsa tug on her jeans before she did her bra and blouse back up. He ached to stop her, wanting to continue with what they had started, but he kept silent. If he hadn’t already known Elsa was his mate, he would have known now. While she was in his arms, his eyesight had grown keener, heralding the change to wolf’s eyes. Also his claws had broken through the skin of his fingertips. Both were signs that she was his. The last thing would be while they made love. Just before he came, his cock would swell until Elsa and he were locked together. Once he reached release, he’d continue to come in half-minute intervals until the swelling went down. He knew all this from his mated fellows-in-arms.
What would happen between them had Brand wanting to slow things down just a touch. Elsa was going to notice—there was nothing he could do about that—but he planned to take his time with her. He’d eventually tell her what he was, though not today. He planned to make love to her, more than once, before he had to leave her to go on a night of hunting werewolves sired by Fenris the wolf. He’d waited so long to touch and taste her, sink his body into hers. He was going to have her before he told her the truth just in case she didn’t take the news too well. And from past experience with the other mates of his brothers-in-arms, Brand expected Elsa to react badly.
Once Elsa was dressed, they sat on the couch. Brand passed Elsa her drink before he grabbed his beer. He put his arm around her and tucked her against his side. She leaned into him. He drew in a lungful of air, the scent of her arousal still strong around them. His blood rushed hotly through his veins, and his cock throbbed with unfulfilled desire.
“I like sitting here with you like this,” Elsa said. “But I still think it would be better if we moved to my bedroom.”
He chuckled. “Patience.”
“That’s easy for you to say. You know, it’s not nice to get a girl all hot and bothered and then tell her to wait.”
Brand kissed the top of Elsa’s head. “I promise to make it up to you. I want to get to know you a bit better.”
She sighed dramatically. “All right, though there isn’t much more to tell. Besides my parents, I have an older sister. She’s my best friend. And speaking of her, she wanted to know if you have any single friends. Renea sometimes goes through men like tissue.”
He smiled. “I only have one friend who is unattached. The others are all married, and two of them have started families.”
“I’ll have to meet this friend of yours then. I can check him out and see if he’d be a good match for my sister.”
“You’ll meet Chris and the others once I bring you to my place. We all live together.”
Elsa swallowed the mouthful of wine she’d taken. “You all live in the same house? Even your friends with kids?”
“Yes. They’re more like family than just strictly friends.”
“How many of you are there?”
“Fourteen. Five couples and two babies.”
