  Baird must have seen the uncertainty on her face because he kissed reassuringly as his thick shaft slid inch by inch into her wet sex. “Look at me, Lilenta,” he commanded softly. “Focus on me. Remember I told you that my body would make chemicals to help you open for me?”

  “Y-yes,” Liv stuttered, gripping his broad shoulders for support. God, he was so deep in her already, so thick and long and hard but she still hadn’t felt him touch bottom. It was strange because his cock was so lengthy she would have bet she couldn’t take all of him. Yet he continued to enter her inch by inch with no end in sight.

  “It’s already happening,” Baird told her. “Your body is already responding to mine. Otherwise there’s no way you could take my entire length inside you, let alone the width.” He nodded down to where they were almost fully joined.

  Liv couldn’t resist taking a look and she bit back a gasp at what she saw. His thick shaft was already buried deep inside her, stretching her open, piercing her pussy to the limit. She thought she’d never seen anything more erotic than her body opening to take him in and Baird apparently agreed.

  “Gods, you’re gorgeous, Lilenta. So fucking beautiful spreading yourself for me. Letting me fill your hot little pussy with my cock.”

  Liv felt her cheeks heating with a blush. “Baird…” she protested weakly.

  “It’s true.” He kissed her hungrily. “And you’re opening for me so naturally you don’t even have to think about it.”

  “I…I am?” Liv could scarcely believe it but she couldn’t refute what she’d seen.

  “You are, Lilenta,” he growled softly. “So here’s what I want you to do—just relax and keep your eyes on me and let me fill you. Don’t worry about anything, just let yourself be open to me and I promise you won’t regret it.”

  “All right,” Liv breathed. Doing as he said, she let herself fall into the drowning golden depths of his eyes and tried to be as open as possible. In me so deep. So full. So right…And then Baird groaned and she felt him touch bottom within her at last.

  In me, God, he’s finally all the way in me. All except…She had the sudden urge to look down and see how in the world this was going to work but Baird shook his head.

  “Stay with me, Lilenta. Just concentrate on letting me fill you.” With a low growl, he leaned forward and captured her mouth in a passionate kiss as he pressed even harder and deeper inside her. Liv felt herself stretching but in a good way, her sex opening as it never had before. Then there was a warm sliding sensation and a throbbing around her entrance that was intensely pleasurable—almost like a mini-orgasm. Then something smooth and hard pressed against her clit, shooting electrical tingles of pleasure through her entire body.

  “God, what—?”

  “My mating fist.” Baird kissed her again. “It fills you and stimulates you at the same time. Do you feel it?”

  “Yes.” Liv rocked experimentally against him, feeling the hot, hard flesh rubbing her sensitive pearl once more. God, it felt incredible!

  “I’m inside you now—all the way inside,” he murmured. “We’re joined, Olivia. We are one.”

  The words almost brought tears to her eyes and a feeling of rightness—of wholeness she’d never felt before—swept over her. In that moment Liv felt herself to be completely opened and owned. She knew that his mating fist was filling her, could feel it swelling to lock them together as he had told her it would, but there was no pain. Only the pleasure of being so open for her lover, her mate. Only the delicious knowledge that Baird was all the way inside her and that he would be there for a long, long time as he bonded her to him forever.

  “I love you,” she whispered. “Love you so much.”

  “Love you too,” he whispered hoarsely.

  “Prove it.” She threw his own words back at him playfully and then rocked against him in a move designed to tease and entice. It worked.

  “Oh, I’ll prove it, Lilenta,” Baird growled. “Don’t worry about that.” He surged upward and Liv gasped as the deep thrust shot a spike of pure pleasure down her spine.

  “Baird!” she gasped as he did it again. “God, that’s amazing. More!”

  “I’ll give you more.” With another low growl, he thrust up again and then again. Liv gripped his shoulders and tried to match his rhythm. As she did, she felt the bliss cresting inside her, spiking high and hard and deep as he filled her again and again, over and over, taking her, loving her, bonding her to him forever.

  “Baird,” she moaned, rolling her hips in time with his thrusts. “I…I’m almost there. So close…Just need…”

  “I know what you need.” Reaching between them he found her throbbing clit with the broad pad of his thumb and began to stroke in time with his thrusts inside her. “Look at me,” he whispered roughly when Liv’s eyes closed with the overwhelming pleasure. “Look at me while I touch you, Olivia. Look at me while I fuck you. While I bond you.”

  Liv’s eyes fluttered open and she met his intense golden gaze. “Baird,” she whispered, unable to say more.

  “Now,” he growled. “Come for me, Lilenta. Come for me so I can fill you up, so I can flood your pussy with my cum and make you mine for always.”

  It was too much. With a low cry, Liv felt herself tilting over the edge, losing herself completely in the pleasure of being bonded to the man she loved.

  She didn’t know how long it lasted or how many times she came. There were periods of hot, wild fucking where Baird pounded up into her as though he was determined to mark her as his own. But there were also long stretches where he barely moved at all. Instead, he filled her with a slow, rocking movement while he looked in her eyes and told her how much he loved her. He came in her over and over, just as he had promised he would and each time she felt it as she never had with a human man, felt his hot seed filling her and making the connection between them even deeper. And each time he did, it released something in Liv’s body, making her come too. She moaned as she felt herself contract around him, pulling him deeper with every spasm of pleasure. “That’s right, Lilenta,” Baird murmured, watching her eyes as she surrendered to the bliss. “That’s right, come for me. Let yourself go and come.”

  Liv did as he said, giving in to him completely, letting him take her where she needed to go—where they both needed to go so badly. She only wished it could go on forever.

  But though it lasted longer than any sexual experience in her life, the bonding was finally over. Baird withdrew from her slowly and carefully and Liv curled herself against his side, resting her cheek against his broad bare chest. She sighed with contentment as she felt his strong arms settle around her and hold her tight.

  “That was amazing.”

  “It was perfect.” Baird stroked her hair away from her face. “Exactly what I’ve been dreaming of from the first minute I saw you.”

  “You mean from the first dream-sharing?” Liv looked up at him. “When you were…when the Scourge had you?” She wasn’t sure if mentioning the enemy would bother him but Baird still looked perfectly calm.

  “Yeah. And it’s okay, Lilenta. We can talk about it.”

  “What happened?” she asked cautiously. “I mean, how did you stand it?”

  Baird’s eyes were shadowed. “It wasn’t easy. The krik-ka`re was every bit as bad as I thought it would be.”

  “You didn’t have to do that, you know.” Liv looked at him earnestly. “Didn’t have to trade yourself for me.”

  “I wanted to.” He stroked her cheek. “I was glad to, Lilenta.”

  “But what you went though…what you endured for me—”

  “None of it matters now,” he cut her off firmly. “It was rough, sure. But even though I let all my shields down I still had you, somewhere in the back of my head. Your scent, your taste, the color of your eyes. Even though he tried to twist it, the AllFather couldn’t take that away from me. It kept me sane no matter how bad things got.”

  “But how did you get away?”

  He sighed and shifte
