Caught By The Dragon: Dragonhaeme (Beyond The Planes Book 1) Page 10


  “Surprise. You’re now my prisoner.”

  A slew of expressions showed on Drekk’s face—shock, speculation, curiosity, admiration, amusement and then acceptance.

  I could see the moment he decided to play my game. But the dragon was also delighted at what it saw as a bit of play. Good, I could get more answers out of him if there was less resistance.

  "So, you have me tied up." He shrugged disinterestedly and relaxed his stance. Slitted eyes watched me through lowered lashes. “What do you have in mind for me next?"

  “Oh, nothing to worry about.” I vanished his clothes with a thought.

  Spouts of lava came up and hissed. The vents seemed to be getting bubblier.

  "I thought I'd try my hand at seducing some answers out of you since you are so miserly with them," I said sassily, a hand on my hip.

  He looked me over examining my challenging pose, seeming secretly thrilled. "Do your best, little thief. I can take it,” he said provocatively.

  "You will answer me, dragon. The longer you delay, the longer your satisfaction will have to wait."

  "I'm counting on it,” he said with a wink. The rogue! Standing nude against the fiery mountain, Drekk was magnificent. The firelight glinting off his golden skin lent him a sheen that made me want to lick him all over. His eyes flashed dragon and back. I knew that if he shifted, I was helpless but hopefully the promise of pleasure at my hands would delay that.

  Stepping towards him, I slowly knelt at his feet, my gaze not leaving his.

  He swore.

  I imagined what he would be seeing. A young woman, naked at his feet, light glinting off her nipple jewelry. Yes, that probably was an enticing sight. I bent and peppered his feet and thighs with open mouthed kisses, keeping them light. When he groaned and moved towards me, I moved away. "Uh-Uh. I am in control, dragon.”

  Eyes narrowed, he said, “You are enjoying this aren’t you?”

  I beamed, and he couldn’t help laughing. The dragon knew I was enjoying having him under my power. I resumed my explorations. With his hands tied, Drekk couldn't do much to stop me anyway. When I reached his member, I moved my attentions to his back.

  Drekk was even more impressive from the posterior. Large-shouldered, slim hipped, with powerful thighs and arms, he was the epitome of male beauty and the alpha male.

  My mouth went dry.

  I embraced him from behind, winding myself tight around him, rubbing my breasts to his back. My fingers pinched his nipples. I nibbled all over his back while playing with his hardened nipples. I knelt down—he had such a firm backside—and bit him. His hips jerked.

  Drekk was now continuously growling, a fine layer of goosebumps had broken out over his skin. I ignored him as I was rather having fun. But I said warningly, "You are not allowed to spend yourself until I say.”

  He groaned. "You're pushing my limits, little one. Prepare yourself for what you will unleash."

  "Oh, I will," I murmured with a secret grin. I couldn't wait for the consequences. With Drekk I was sure they would be both sexy and imaginative.

  With a shake of my head, I reminded myself of the objective here. "So, um, Father is with Balen and Merrick?"

  I kissed my way down the inside of his thighs.

  "He is giving them information that will help eliminate the hunters once and for all." Drekk swallowed thickly. "No harm will come to your father. The Watching Dragons have sworn to protect him with all their resources. They hold him in high esteem for his successful protection of you.”

  That was a relief.

  "Mm, a prompt answer. That deserves a reward." I walked around his chained body. "What shall I give you? Some matching jewelry perhaps?"

  Plain golden hoops appeared around his nipples.

  "Ooh," I said, completely distracted. “Those look really good on you!"

  His lashes almost fully lowered, he paused and then said, “Well then. I insist you give them the same treatment I gave you."

  I remembered how he'd played with my nipple hoops for hours and swallowed. "Okay," I said in a husky whisper. Soon, I was sucking gently at his nipple. I found that he was very sensitive there, but even more so with the hoops. With my hand, I tugged experimentally at the other nipple ring and Drekk groaned. I looked up, his eyes were closed, and his neck strained. He appeared to struggle to swallow. Watching his face, I closed my teeth delicately over the tender skin of his nipple and tugged.

  His whole body jerked. "Lena!"

  I backed away. The tip of his erection was wet with pre-ejaculation fluid. My mouth watered.

  He groaned my name again, straining towards me.

  "Wait, dragon. I have a few more questions."

  He bit out, “I begrudge you not the answers, but ask me soon or I will end your play, little thief."

  "All right." I reached out and stroked his cheek. His eyes closed as with one hand, I directed a small stream of lava to me. "When did you know first that I was yours?"

  Lava flowed from my hand and swirled around his nipples and erection.

  His loud shout echoed all over the cavern. “Little one, let me go at once, or you won't like the consequences." His arm muscles bulged as he wrenched at the chains.

  I winked at him. “I disagree. Now answer the question."

  He seemed fevered, his chest pushing up and down like bellows. The rings at his nipples became red hot. His member was painfully erect, and more fluid seeped out at the tip.

  Unable to help myself I bent and sucked the tip, tasting him.

  He shouted out again, hips jerking towards me. "Aaargh, by the eternal fire, I can't hold on much more. My little tormentress. I will take out every frustration of today on your body. Remember this," he threatened. "As for when I knew you, I knew you from the moment I touched your mind the first night. Every dragon knows his dragon heart by soul."

  He had told me as much before, so I was not surprised.

  Also, I was secretly delighted. I was tormenting him with passion?

  You are maddening me with sensation. Don't worry, you will pay the price, little one. Again, and again and again.

  You wonder whether I want you for what you are or who you are. Lena, I know you thoroughly, so I understand the questions that you do not know how to ask. Know that I adore the truth of you—your every thought, your laugh, your joy, your every dream—that is what I live for now. For your happiness. Love is too tame a word to encompass what you are to me. As you belong to me, I completely belong to you, I live or die for you.

  Tears poured down my face at the beauty of his words. But they reminded me why I was mad at him. "Um, when were you going to tell me that our lives are now linked and if anything fatal happened to me, then you also die?" I asked.

  I would never have allowed him to do such a foolhardy thing. Here he was a magical creature who had lived through epochs, and now he had created a weakness for himself without even discussing it with me.

  He deserved some torture for that, I decided.

  The lava swirling around Drekk’s swollen member became ice cold water. At a thought, ice surrounded his nipples. As he yelled in startled shock, a cock ring appeared around the head of his shaft and tightened, preventing ejaculation.

  Drekk swore in various vicious tongues.

  He had no one to thank but himself for the idea. I had remembered his holding himself like that—strangling himself really—to delay pleasure and immediately thought of cock rings. Such rings were found in pleasure stalls in bazaars. The djinn I had made a deal with earlier this week owned such a pleasure shop. I had sussed the djinn out to make sure he was a respectable client—being rather choosy who I worked for—and had walked through the shop, looking over the wares wide-eyed. Never had I thought I would use the knowledge gained that day on my own dragon-lover.

  I leaned up against Drekk and rubbed myself all over him as I murmured into his ear, “Were you ever going to tell me that our lives were linked even in death, dragon?”

  My nipple rings rubbed ag
ainst his rings, his chest, abdomen. He swallowed thickly. Sweat poured off him. Lowering myself, I magicked a small ball of ice and put it in my mouth. Bending, I took his balls into my ice-cold mouth.

  He started swearing again continuously. "Remove the ring, little one," he croaked. His limbs trembled finely.

  I disregarded him. Gently I suckled his balls till the ice melted then placed little licks all over the sacs. He shuddered all over. Another ice appeared in my mouth and I moved to suck his cock, when everything fell apart.

  “Enough!” Before I knew it, Drekk was free, the chains snapping with a roar and a flare of his wings. I was lifted and braced against a rough cave wall. With a rough thrust, he was fully impaled within me. He took me fiercely against the stone wall. Like a madman.

  I had abrasions against my back, but I didn’t care. His fingers were claws and dug into me; his eyes were slitted and scales shimmered all over him. He was fighting his shift to his other form.

  I had broken the dragon's control and a part of me reveled in that. “Yes, Drekk. Take me, I’m yours!”

  He groaned and slammed into me harder as if he could not get into me deep enough. My legs were wrapped around him and his pelvic bone grated against mine. He was so deep within me he pressed on my womb and every time he went that deep I jerked in pleasure-pain. It was hard to get used to no matter how many times he thrust, but I didn't want to let him go. My hands scratched his back bloody and clutched at his shadowy wings, which were now out.

  It was a fast and furious coupling and soon he came to his pleasure by which time I had crested thrice.

  Afterwards, Drekk remained hard in me and he carried me, still impaled on him, into the treasure cave where he knocked over piles of gems and coins while pulling off a sheet from an old throne. He spread it out on the floor and laid me down on it, already moving in me. There on a bed of treasure, he took me again and again. And all I could do was beg for more.

  ***

  After a long time, while Drekk had me on my back, bent over a sack of treasure, on the throne and on all fours, he took me to the chamber with the waterfall and washed me.

  Kneeling in front of me, he parted me with his fingers and brought me to pleasure with his mouth.

  I washed him all over and knelt to return the favor. Just before ejaculating, he pulled out and spewed all over my face and chest, wrapping my hair around his cock. He rubbed his seed into me and held me in his lap for long minutes, murmuring endearments under his breath. “Lena, love.”

  It had been a day full of powerful sensations for both of us and we both enjoyed the quiet.

  “What’s the matter?” I asked when his body continued to tremble occasionally.

  Once awakened, dragon passions are hard to quieten, little one. You did a very thorough job of provoking my passions. I am trying to calm down. Your body needs rest.

  We had actually enjoyed each other’s body for hours, almost the entire day. And he still wanted to go again? Talk about stamina. I was impressed. “Hmm. Don’t try to quieten your passions for my sake, dragon. Anything you can give, I can take,” I said cheekily.

  He glared down at me. The next instant, I was on my stomach over his lap and he was spanking me soundly. I cried out in shock and then in pain.

  You will not overstrain yourself. You will take your rest when I say you need it. When next you need answers from me you will talk to me like an adult instead of turning it into a game.

  He spanked me with every word. But as he rubbed me in between every few spanks on my reddened cheeks, it grew arousing. The force of his spanks reduced and to my shock he started spanking me on my tender woman's part. I wasn't so much wriggling to get off him as I was writhing in pleasure. With a sob, I climaxed to a particularly potent strike that landed just right on my nub.

  Alright, I will.

  With a groan he placed me on my front on a convenient boulder and spread my buttocks.

  It seems I can never have enough of you, my Lena. Give me your pleasure one more time.

  His mouth enclosed my entrance as he sucked and licked at me. His tongue speared into me as his hands continued kneading my cheeks. My cries echoed as he brought me to climax after climax, his tongue touching that special place within me. He pushed his finger inside my spasming channel and pressed that spot. I writhed in his hold.

  “Come for me, love.” Holding my hips still, he suckled at my nub of pleasure and bit carefully with sharp teeth.

  When I came down to earth, I was in the bedroom. Drekk fed me pieces of flatbread and vegetables made with an exotic but delicious sauce and a bowl of melon. I was ravenous and ate it all.

  Through the roof, I could see the velvety black skies again. "It seems like we make a habit of whiling the day away, only to sleep the night in each other’s arms," I murmured musingly.

  Time truly passed faster when you were happy.

  Being with Drekk made me more alive than ever before. I felt safe with him and this brought out facets which were sometimes unknown even to me—like the seductive vixen earlier this day. I blushed at how I had tied up Drekk and played with his body. Never had I thought I would be capable of doing such to any man.

  As I was unclothed, Drekk could see me blush all over. He knew the cause and laughed softly. "Now you show both of us who you are. It may even surprise you what you grow to become." He laughed again. “You were truly a seductress today."

  I blushed some more. I drew patterns on the bedsheet. I peeked up from under my lashes. A little hesitantly, I ventured, "I thought, perhaps you enjoyed it?"

  Vanishing the empty plate, he chuckled. "Yes, my Lena, the dragon in me very much enjoyed being outsmarted by his woman. It is admirable how wily you are when you want something. A fit mate indeed for a dragon. Feel free to bind me and torture me with pleasure anytime. Those chains belong to you now. Only don't demur when I tie you up in revenge," he threatened with an amused gleam.

  My mouth dropped open.

  "What, now?" I asked in shock. I was sore from earlier in the day. He’d been vigorous, and I needed more sleep to heal. I rather winced at the thought of walking to the toilet. Limping might be involved.

  Standing, Drekk laughed uproariously. “Not today little one. You need your rest. But be prepared to be surprised, when you least expect it." He winked and magicked me to the bathroom, turning his back when I made him. He obeyed me with a roll of his eyes while I took care of my needs.

  We went back to bed where he sang to me till I fell sound asleep, sprawled exhaustedly on top of him.

  Chapter Eleven

  The yellow predator with the strange stripes lay on the open grass amid the forest clearing. Its breath was labored. It seemed exhausted and malnutritioned. The cause was clearly the large gash on its side. The limbs of its hindleg looked twisted.

  It wasn't obvious what happened to it, but in its current condition the animal was no threat to me.

  “Hey, there.” It didn't wake when I cautiously made my way closer. Since the creature needed healing, I crouched and placed my hands on it, trying to focus on repairing the damage.

  Drekk encouraged me to explore my powers. We spent many hours every day learning in the study and outside practicing what I had learned. He was adamant that I learn to protect myself. Not that there was any threat.

  Father had passed on what information he possessed on to the Watching Dragons and they had quietly but effectively removed the remnants of the dragonhunters. We all hoped that more dragonhearts would come forth and be joined with their dragons soon.

  I’d invited Father to come and stay with us, even offering to build a place for him on this plane, so he could have his privacy. He had demurred for now, saying he would reconsider when he got grandchildren.

  Now that he wasn’t in fear for my life, Father was more laidback. He was also much more emotionally available. I never realized that Father had carried this huge burden. I suppose I owed both my life and happiness to his vigilance.

  However, we were
not in any hurry to have children. Drekk positively rejoiced in me and I think I needed to live some more, love some more, truly grow into myself before I became a mother.

  From what I understood we both had the power to control when we would have a child. Our bodies obeyed our will in this, so it wouldn't happen unless both of us willed it.

  I had spoken to Kayla on the mirror as well. She had been concerned and a bit shocked at the latest events in my life. But seeing that I was happy, she was overjoyed for me.

  I had invited her to visit Dragonhaeme along with her consort. Kayla would be surprised to witness the new abilities I had developed. Though healing was one I hadn’t practiced much.

  Well, now was my chance.

  Examining the unconscious animal, I saw no progress. I concentrated again, and sensed light emitting from my hands through closed eyelids. When I checked this time, the animal was whole. its fur perfectly healthy. It seemed asleep and showed a normal breathing pattern.

  Carefully I stood and backed away, having no desire to find out if the animal would be grateful or would attack when awake.

  A twig cracked under my feet.

  The animal’s eyes opened, and it began to growl.

  "Uh oh," I said under my breath. I took another cautious step backward only to feel a familiar male chest at my back, hands grasping my upper arms.

  “Drekk?"

  The animal stood on its feet and snarled at Drekk, but it seemed a bit intimidated too, backing away. Drekk snarled back, a low-pitched scary snarl. The animal turned and vanished among the trees.

  Before I could say a word, we were back in the castle kitchen.

  "How could you do something so dangerous?” Drekk was furious. “That animal is an apex predator. Not something that you can toy with.”

  Drekk could be fierce when it came to my protection. But he was entitled to be worried, what with entire generations of hunters trying to exterminate my kind till very recently.

  "The creature was unconscious and wounded. I was only trying to heal it." I tried to soothe him. "And it worked!"
