Chapter One
As Kai Sutherland’s lips touched Jane’s, a possessive surge coursed through his body at the same time his dragon roared. Pulling the human even tighter against him, Kai pinched Jane’s arse. When her mouth opened in surprise, he took advantage and invaded her hot, sweet mouth with his tongue.
For a second, Jane didn’t respond and he wondered if she’d had second thoughts. However, once she stroked her tongue against his as she leaned into the kiss, it took everything he had to remain in control. His human definitely made him work for it.
His dragon growled. Her taste…I want more. Much more.
Before Kai could reply, Jane’s nails dug into his chest as she took the kiss deeper. He growled and stroked harder. She may have won the first round by wearing down his self-control, but he wasn’t about to let her win this one, too.
He moved a hand to her head and fisted her hair. Gently tugging for better access, he stroked, nibbled, and sucked her bottom lip. Releasing her warm, plump lip, he went in for another taste. It’d been too long since he’d had a female and he had forgotten what it was like to hold a soft body against his. And since she was human, Jane’s body was softer than any dragon-shifter, and he loved the difference.
Jane leaned into him, her nipples pressing hard against his chest. He was torn between ripping off her shirt and sucking one of them deep, or turning her around to bend her over, tear off her clothes, and fuck her from behind.
His dragon chimed in. Yes, do it now. I don’t want to wait.
No. Fucking her would complicate things.
Then lick between her legs. Her mouth tastes good, but I want to taste her honey.
An image of Kai spreading Jane’s legs wide as he devoured her pussy flashed into his mind and his cock let out a drop of pre-cum.
Stop it, dragon. That would also complicate things.
His beast huffed. Who cares? We want her and she wants us. The clan is safe, so seize the chance.
Kai stilled and broke the kiss. What the hell was he doing? He was wasting time with a female while his clan could still be in danger.
Jane blinked and then frowned, her breathing still fast from their kissing. “I thought you were going to lose properly. That seemed like a half-arse job to me.”
His beast scratched to take control. I will make her forget how to speak. Let me have a go.
After tossing his dragon into a mental prison, Kai forced himself to take three steps back. “Says the female who rubbed against me, begging me for more.”
While Jane couldn’t erase her kiss-bruised lips, her expression turned hard. Part of Kai regretted the change, but the rational part of his brain was grateful to get back to business. His clan was counting on him to keep them safe.
The human crossed her arms over her chest. “Hide behind your badass expression and attitude all you like, but your actions and body didn’t lie. You were enjoying yourself.”
He shrugged. “Of course. Who wouldn’t enjoy kissing a pretty female?”
Kai was so used to being honest that it took him a beat to realize he’d just admitted he found Jane Hartley attractive.
Triumph flashed in Jane’s eyes before she spoke up. “Sometimes your honesty is annoying, but other times, it reveals some of your secrets.”
It was on the tip of his tongue to press for details, but glancing at the clock on the wall, it was almost one o’clock. He couldn’t afford to waste any more time, so he changed the subject. “Since I’m not supposed to order you around, are you ready to get to work?”
Jane raised an eyebrow. “Asking me a question must’ve been difficult for you.” Kai grunted and Jane smiled. “Okay, I’ll stop teasing, for now.” She lowered her voice. “But this is far from over, dragonman.”
“I assure you, it won’t happen again. Once I make a mistake, I learn from it.”
“I’m a mistake now?”
His dragon huffed. Don’t be an arsehole. She is not a mistake. The other one was a
