Eira's POV
The world shattered around me as I came.
Heat crashed through my body so suddenly that I gasped against him, my fingers clutching at his shoulders as the wave tore through me, fierce and uncontrollable. My breath came out broken, my body trembling under him.
For a moment I couldn't think.
Couldn't breathe.
Couldn't do anything except feel.
Kael's low growl rumbled near my ear, rough and raw, as if he could feel every tremor that ran through me. He wasn't done, not even close. I could feel it in the way his breathing stayed uneven, in the wild tension coiled inside him.
"Easy…" he murmured hoarsely, his hand sliding along my back in a slow grounding touch.
He gave me a heartbeat to breathe.
Just one.
My lungs dragged in the air, my body still trembling as I let the pleasure sink through me, trying to calm myself.
But the moment my breath evened out, his hands moved again, firm and certain.
Before I could fully gather myself, he lifted me.
