Talia was not sure how to respond to Damon's scandalous remarks which insinuated that they should indulge in carnal pleasures, and his erection pressing on her stomach made her flustered, so she buried her face in his chest and decided to stay silent.
"Hmm…", a low hum of approval sounded from the back of his throat. "That's better. Arousal. I like it."
"Can you stop talking?", Talia squeaked.
Yes, she was aroused because they were both naked in bed and the sparks flared wherever they touched, but him calling her out like that was embarrassing.
"OK. I will stop talking to you.", Damon said and slid lower until his face was in line with her breasts. He kissed each of them slowly, licking and sucking while enjoying Talia's moans and her fisting his hair, and he stopped when both of her nipples stood taut in attention.
"Good morning, my darlings. How are you today?"
It took Talia a moment to realize that he was talking to her breasts, and she burst into giggles. "What are you doing?"
"I'm saying 'hi' to my two out of three new best friends.", Damon responded matter-of-factly. "Since you don't want to talk to me, I have options."
Talia was not sure if she should laugh or cry. The playful Damon was here, and she didn't know how to handle him. But one thing stood out. "Two out of three?"
His smug expression told her that she fell into a trap. He was waiting for this.
"The third one is also eager for her good morning greetings", Damon said and swiftly moved lower, placing himself between Talia's legs with his face only a few inches above her intimate bush. "Hello, my dear. Did you miss me?"
Talia's mouth was open in a silent scream when he latched his mouth around her clit and started sucking without any warning and ecstatic quivers shook her body as colors exploded in front of her closed eyes. It was a good morning.
Sometime later…
Damon shuddered in his release as he shot his seed deep inside Talia who clawed his back while cursing profanities mixed in with his name… beautiful music to Damon's ears.
Their ragged breathing was oddly in sync.
Damon was supporting his weight on his elbows, his body lightly pressing on Talia's, allowing for those addictive sparks to course through both of them.
That was their third time making love that morning, and as much as they were sated every time, it took them only a minute to crave for more of each other.
Talia blinked her eyes in focus to see Damon's handsome face hovering above hers.
His skin was glistening from sweat and several unruly strands stuck to his forehead, but what got her attention were Damon's icy-blue eyes that smiled at her.
Even without prying into his emotions, Talia knew that he was happy, and she was happy as well.
"I could do this all day, kitten…", Damon murmured into her lips before giving her a long slow kiss that made her toes curl. "Actually, I want to spend the rest of my life inside you. Just. Like. This."
"It's almost time for breakfast.", Talia said. "And there is a lot of work."
"We can eat here, and Caden and Maya can handle work.", Damon was quick to find a solution.
"Tony and Kalina will arrive today", Talia reminded him. Others will trickle in later in the evening and tomorrow morning, but Tony and Kalina are set to arrive first with their group in the afternoon.
Damon frowned a bit. "Caden and Maya can handle them."
Talia stifled a laugh and put her palm on his cheek. "When we are done with guests, let's go on that vacation. Just the two of us."
Damon approved. "Alright."
He already had a spot in his mind. A secluded cabin in the forest, with a lake nearby, and it's not far, just how Talia specified. As a big bonus, he owns it so there won't be any scheduling issues, and they can stay as long as they want. If Damon can pick, they would stay there forever, just the two of them.
Damon glanced at the bedside clock and Talia could guess that he was thinking if they have time for another round of lovemaking.
"We need to get ready.", Talia said shyly. "Can you…" She glanced down where their bodies connected. He was still inside her.
Damon smirked and Talia's eyes widened when she felt his erection moving inside her even though his hips stayed in place. She didn't know that he can make his cock twitch just like that.
"Are you sure you want to get ready?", Damon asked in a husky voice and his heated gaze told her he wanted more of her. It was never enough.
Talia inhaled a shaky breath. Of course, she didn't want to get ready, but… "We can't spend the whole day in bed." Not today, at least.
Damon pouted even though he knew she was right. He was the Alpha of the largest pack in North America, and as much as he enjoyed his time with Talia, he couldn't neglect his duties.
Reluctantly, Damon moved to lay on the bed next to Talia.
When he pulled out, Talia felt empty and she really wanted him to get back in there, but she suppressed those urges.
Talia thought that Damon will get out of the bed, but he ended up spooning her from behind.
"Let me hold you like this for a minute, kitten", he spoke into her hair and Talia responded with a nod. Her Alpha wanted to cuddle and she would never deny him that.
Talia attempted to relax, but how can she relax when his erection was poking her behind?
Damon took a deep breath and focused on the heavenly sensation of Talia's body pressing against his, and on the delicious sparks that came with that contact.
Last night and that morning were proof he will never get enough of Talia. Every time was better than the previous one. She was the best thing that ever happened to him, and he decided to never let her out of his visual range. In that way, he will protect her from rogues and any women who have silly ideas and that reminded him…
"I spoke to Lisa last night."
Talia was alerted. "You did?"
Damon kissed the back of Talia's head. "If anyone is giving you hard time, I want to know about it. Why didn't you tell me?"
Talia turned to face him. "Lisa was not giving me a hard time."
Damon cocked an eyebrow at Talia. "And why did you go into the forest yesterday?"
"She is just hurt because Tony…"
"And that doesn't give her the right to hurt you or anyone else.", Damon interrupted Talia sternly. Seeing Talia's expression dropping, Damon rubbed her back gently and softened his voice. "I'm not blaming you. I only wish that you rely on me. Now you know that we are mates. Allow me to protect you. For the last decade, I am fighting for this pack, but that doesn't mean a damn thing if I can't protect you."
Talia looked at Damon as guilt swelled inside her.
"I know that Lisa's words were not directed at me. She was just projecting her anger.", Talia said in her defense. "Yes, I should have told you, and yes, I was supposed to say something back to her and not allow her to vent on me, but she was only talking, and I didn't want to make things awkward because this is her home."
"Wrong. This is your home, kitten. Lisa only lives here and if she can't follow the rules, we will make different arrangements for her."
Different arrangements included things like Lisa moving to a different house, an apartment, or a dungeon, and it didn't exclude the possibility of kicking Lisa out of the pack which Damon will do without flinching if Lisa doesn't get off Talia's case.
Damon already gave Lisa a verbal warning which is more than he did for any other offender.
