CHAPTER 146: BRINGING CLOSE

Lance looked down at the sleeping woman in his arms and let out a slow sigh. She was burning up again, and he knew that if it continued like this, she wouldn’t last long enough to think clearly, let alone plan an escape as soon as her heat was over.

He needed to bring her some relief- enough to steady her, enough to help her mind stay her own. Without it, she’d be lost to the pull of instinct before dawn.

At the height her heat was climbing to, even the strongest fragrances and the thickest scent of flowers outside, wouldn’t be enough to mask her lure. The rogues would catch her scent; and so would the others who hunted Omegas in heat like prey. It made his jaw tighten. He couldn’t afford to let that happen.

Carefully, he lifted one hand and traced the line of her cheek with his thumb, brushing away the light sheen of sweat that had gathered there. A stray lock of hair had fallen across her face, clinging stubbornly to her skin. He pushed it back gently, his fingers lingering for a heartbeat longer than he meant them to.

She stirred faintly under his touch, her lips parting as she tried to burrow closer, seeking his warmth even in sleep.

For a long moment, he stayed still, watching her breathe as he tried to think of some way to solve this problem at hand. Just then, her eyes opened and she looked up at him and licked her lips.

He placed a hand on her cheek and let her nuzzle his palm as he asked her," Emira, are you better." She nodded.

Emira looked up at the man who was looking down on her with faint worry on his face and nodded her head. She knew this was already the second day of her heat and soon, she would be able to get over this need very soon. But that ’soon’ seemed to be further away, as her body flooded with need.

She closed her eyes. If only Zen or Prince Kael were around. They could have helped her through it...She bit her lip in thought and failed to notice that every bit of her action and expression was being observed by Prince Lance.

Just as she was lost in thought, she felt something against her lips and blinked up at him, startled. She looked down at his thumb on her lips as he said," Don’t bite..."

She looked away. Just that light touch was causing unbearable heat to her down there... What was she supposed to do now? Maybe she could go into the bathroom and try to ’relieve’ herself. Though she had not tried it herself...

Just then, a warm breath fell over her ear and she heard him whisper," Emira...Show me."

She shuddered. He was not touching her but his breath was. And just that warm puff of air was causing her to lose control...

"What...Show you what?"

"You are planning to pleasure yourself, aren’t you?" Emira widened her eyes. How did he know?

He smiled at her shocked expression and said," But you have no idea how, don’t you? There is some special fun in showing as well... Come on, show me, how will you pleasure yourself..."

With that, before Emira could say anything, the blanket was pulled from her, and Prince Lance was standing over the bed, looking at her as if she were some art display...

But she had no idea what to do...

"Spread your legs... Let me see your need."

Emira gulped and even though she knew it was not a command, she found herself spreading her legs, letting him see her...as he continued, "You like following these instructions don’t you, Emira? You like it when you are able to make us hard with just looking at you. Watching as you pleasure yourself."

Emira closed her eyes. She was going to accept nothing of the sort.. No way.

"I want to watch more, Emira... Spread those lips, let me see deeper...

Emira shuddered and using her fingers spread herself, feeling herself get wetter by the minute... as he continued to instruct her, "Good... So pretty and pink..". Emira felt herself flush at the words and wanted to run away...

But before she could move, he followed it with another instruction, "Put your finger inside... One first...."

Emira’s hips arched at the words and she let out a moan, her hips moving restlessly as she pleasured herself...And then, before she could do anything more, he ordered, "Sit up."

Emira frowned. She didn’t want to sit up. But as she looked into his glittering eyes, she knew that she would do anything he said.. So, she did... And then blinked as he threw his jeans at her.. "Bunch it up and straddle it..."

Frowning, Emira did as she was told and then shivered. This.... was something. The rough feeling of the denim against her made her moan deliciously as it stimulated the small hot button.... She threw her head back, even impervious to his voice, and simply continued to rub herself against it, even though she was sure that she might have scraped her skin by the end of it...

"Use two fingers now, Emira."

Following his word mindlessly, she pushed two fingers into her drenched folds and continued to hump against her fingers and his jeans...

"I need to wear that, Emira... Rub your scent well on it...Just like you are going to have my scent..."

She opened her eyes then and stared as his hand seemed to be wrapped around him, with a piece of cloth that looked like her panties...

Those words, along with what he was doing and what she was doing, made her stumble over the edge and she let go with a scream, before slouching forward, thoroughly spent....

"Open your eyes, Emira..." Her head snapped up at the growled voice then and just as their eyes met, he threw back his head...
