They don't.
Mm. Seeing that Zari already seemed to have their next destination in mind, Alexandru deliberately slowed down to let her lead and was surprised at the direction they were taking...which was definitely not the way to any of his properties.
Zari couldn't help stealing looks at her Master. Now that the shock of his return had somewhat faded, the truth of her earlier words was finally sinking in...
When Zari tripped on her own feet for the second time, Alexandru was no longer smiling as he cupped her elbow. Since his pet hadn't bothered shielding her thoughts, he had known the exact second she started thinking about sex, and dammit, the moment she had done that...
Zari could only suck in her breath as she fell against him...and felt the rigid hardness of his erection.
"Do you have a place close by?" Alexandru grated out under his breath.
"Yes," she barely managed to whisper.
Her Master simply stared at her, and the look in his eyes was enough.
She broke into a run, thrilled, happy, and just a little scared, knowing full well that Alexandru's silent threat was no joke. If they didn't get to her apartment fast enough, he was absolutely taking her in the streets, and while the idea was intriguing...
Hurry, dammit, her Master growled.
Zara's heart skipped a beat even as she pushed herself to run even faster. In another moment, they were finally racing up the steps leading to her fifth-floor apartment. Alexandru, seeing how Zari's hands were shaking so badly, took the keys from his pet and unlocked the door with the first try.
She stumbled inside and heard Alexandru kick the door shut behind them.
Oh God.
A pair of large, strong hands clasped her waist to turn her around, and Zari already had her legs locking around her Master's waist by the time burning green eyes met hers.
One second, just to look into each other's eyes—-
I love you.
Her voice shook...and so did his, the three words spilling out of their hearts at the same time.
It was all they had to say.
And it was the last thing they did say, for a very, very, very long time.
A whimper escaped Zari as her Master's fingers drove into her hair, pulling her head back just as his lowered. His mouth possessed hers, and her lips automatically parted under the exquisitely brutal force of his kiss.
Her mind reeled as his tongue thrust deep.
So long. God, it's been so, so long.
Her fingers curved over the muscular slope of his massive shoulders, nails clawing his back as the possessive strokes of his tongue reclaimed every inch of her mouth, and her grip on reality further loosened. She could feel him start to walk, and soon, he had Zari on her back on her small, narrow bed.
Alexandru tore his mouth off and heard his pet immediately release a small, keening cry of protest.
Sssh.
He soothed her through their blood bond even as he made short work of their clothes, his first, then hers-—
She had the most tantalizing glimpse of her Master's naked body - his skin was a darker shade of bronze now, and the sculpted lines of his muscles were more prominent - but then he was joining her back in bed, Alexandru lowering his massive, hard body over hers, and a gasp broke out of her the moment their skin came into contact.
The sound of his pet's gasp, combined with the feel of her sweet, naked softness melding against his body, had Alexandru striving for control even as a growl made it past his own lips.
He had intended to take things slow, to take his time reacquainting himself with his pet's beautiful little body, but all those plans were good as gone now.
Reaching down to clasp the plump cheeks of her ass, he waited until her passion-clouded eyes lifted to his—-
And that was when he thrust hard inside of her.
One swift, forceful drive.
And his cock was once again back in heaven.
She was so fucking wet, so fucking hot, that even though she was a lot tighter than he remembered, his cock was still able to easily pull out before plunging back inside of her.
Zari.
He couldn't help saying her name as he began thrusting in and out of her, and when he heard her moan his name out in return—-
Alexandru.
Any attempt to act like a man in control was forgotten, and the only thing that was left was a beast desperately starving to rut with its mate.
Zari could only cling at her Master's shoulders as his thrusts, already fast and hard, became even wilder. It almost felt as if he could tear her apart with the savageness of his thrusts, but even though this frightened her a little, the prospect also lent a shameful thrill running down her spine.
Even after all these years, even after everything they had gone through, a part of Zari still couldn't believe that a man like Alexandru Gheorgiu loved her, and she had a feeling that part of her would never go away.
