Croc's Return (Bitten Point, #1)

“Never.” A promise he sealed with a kiss, a kiss that started out soft and sweet.

However, Renny didn’t want gentle, or so he surmised as her teeth nipped at his lower lip. Her mouth left his mouth to travel the length of his stubbled jaw, moving down the column of his throat and pausing over his pulse. She sucked at it, a seemingly innocent gesture that meant a lot to his kind. Letting someone close to a jugular was the ultimate trust.

She kept sucking as her hands tugged at his shirt. He helped her to strip it from his body. He couldn’t help but lean against the wall as her lips continued their exploration, burning-hot touches across his upper body. A bite of his nipples. A raking of her nails down his chest to the waistband of his athletic pants.

As she knelt, she yanked at them, baring his erect shaft and pulling a, “What are you doing?” question from him.

The smile that curved her lips went well with the teasing glint in her eye. “Take a guess.”

Why guess when she showed him?

“Baby…” He whispered the word as she drew him into her mouth and proceeded to blow him. Literally.





Chapter Twenty


Funny how surviving what seemed like certain death left a woman feeling more alive than ever. Or was it the man standing before her that had brought her back to life?

They’d both gone through so much. Pain, betrayal, heartache. But now that the secrets were exposed, apologies made, and love rekindled, there was nothing keeping them apart.

Nothing to stop her from showing Caleb her love—and affection.

There was also nothing stopping her from showing him how much she appreciated him, loved him.

She took him into her mouth, the velvety skin of his shaft a sensory delight to explore. While thick, she could accommodate him by stretching her mouth wide. Even then, her teeth grazed him, a sensation he enjoyed if his shivers were anything to judge by.

She dug her fingers into his hips, giving herself leverage to bob her head back and forth along the length of him, savoring every hard inch. Loving how he pulsed and even twitched in her mouth.

The soft moans let her know he was lost in the moment, but she wanted more than that. She wanted him to lose control. To lose himself in her.

She worked him with her mouth, her tongue dancing patterns on his skin, her lips suctioning his plump head. She suctioned hard, willing him to come, but Caleb had other ideas.

“You’re driving me wild,” he growled as he pulled her to her feet. But she didn’t remain on her feet long. In a whirl of bodies, he had her pinned against the wall, suspended by the sheer strength in his hands.

“I love you,” she murmured. Loved his strength, all of him.

“And I,” he whispered back as the tip of him entered her, “have always.” Thrust. “Loved.” Deep grind. “You.” With that last word, he claimed her mouth, even as his cock claimed her *.

He pounded into her, stretching her with his size, reaching deep within and touching more than her G-spot. He touched her soul.

Together, they panted and thrust in and against each other, together racing for the pinnacle of bliss.

When she would have cried out, he caught her lips, not only swallowing her expression of pleasure, but she reveled in every single quiver of his body, and then his own unrestrained cry as he orgasmed and brought her with him.

Together, they rode the wild storm of their love and emerged from it breathless, dewy, and smiling.

But she did have to wonder, “Why are you laughing?”

“Because for the first time since I got back, we had access to a perfectly fine bed, and yet we didn’t even come close to using it.”

She smiled. “Seems a shame to waste it, unless you’re too tired.”

Her teasing dare bore fruit. And later on, nestled in his arms, she couldn’t help but murmur, “I’m glad you returned.”

“So am I. And I’m never leaving again.”

But they would be investing in a lock, given Luke’s exclamation the following morning of, “Mommy, you forgot to put on pajamas!”





Epilogue


The dinosaur sightings stopped the night they killed the monster, as did the disappearances, but the bodies of those missing were never found. Five in all and none of them the remains left behind in the cave.

Actually, the Bittech lab tests showed the skeletons found, eight that they could be sure of, were all several years old. It closed a few cold cases and made many wonder just how long the dino creature had lived there undetected.

As no one could come up with answers, the curious went back to their lives, even Wes, because no matter how much he and Caleb, along with the others, searched, they could find no wrongdoing by Bittech or any of its employees. Their paranoia proved groundless, but Wes refused to give up.

“I’m telling you there’s something fishy going on.”
