Love of a Mate

Chapter 16
At Last

Hermione was wrapped in a sea of desire and she hoped she never found her way out of it. She knew that she wasn't dreaming, but also that she was not quite awake. She was breathing in the most amazing scent, it was a unique smell that she knew belonged to only one man, and it was casting a spell on her more powerful than anything she felt could be accomplished by magic.

She wallowed in the overpowering feeling of it as it soaked into her very being.

And then she felt the heat, oh the burn was nothing she could ever remember, lips moving down her neck. Instinctively she tilted her head so that the heat could find what it sought. Her mark was on fire and she hissed her eyes flying open to meet the intense gaze of her beautiful mate. His lips settled over her mark and he sucked causing her to buck into him.

"Draco," was moaned and her eyes fluttered closed again only to have them fly open as he started to nibble into her burning flesh. She couldn't take her gaze away from his as he very deliberately and slowly started to remark her.

"There is no turning back if I mark you, be sure my heart."

She let out a slow moan and brought her hands up to tangle in his hair pressing his mouth down harder on her mating mark.

"I know, please Draco, I ache."

It was his turn to moan, and then he bit her, hard. There was no pain, but she was unable to not cry out as heat moved through her and she felt as if her soul was suddenly reaching out, seeking and then knitting together with the beautiful being now panting as he marked her skin.

When she felt she might faint from the intensity of it all his lips were suddenly taking hers and she shifted, finally realizing that they were both naked. Her legs tangled with his and she arched into him, feeling his rock hard erection press into her seeking her core. She attempted to move so that his hardness could find her core only to have him shift and chuckle.

"Oh no, my little mate, not until I have devoured you and put you in such a wanton state that you can't tell up from down."

Hermione groaned in frustration and pulled at his soft blond hair, rather hard too. "If you think I am not already in that wanton state you are delusional. Draco, I want you!"

Draco however just tisked at her and started kissing over her collar bone. "I know you do, but I want you to be dripping with your need before I take you," he sucked a nipple into his mouth and she let out a quiet moan. "And trust me, witch, you are not there yet."

Hermione threw her head back as he moved to her other breast giving it the same attention. The emotions rushing over her as she felt his hands move down her body could not be described. It was deeper than love, deeper than lust, so much more than a want. She needed this man like she needed air to breathe.

He moved to kiss around her abdomen and she had trouble staying still under his kisses, something that caused him to chuckle at her before he pinned her down to the soft mattress with his body. She knew what he wanted, she could read his thoughts and it was making the seduction doubly powerful. To know what your lover intended, and to also know how much that lover desired it, the feeling was incredible.

She moved her legs apart, giving him the room he would need to attend to his goal. How she was going to not buck him off of her as he did so she had no idea. Then she felt the charm and gasped.

"Draco Lucius Malfoy, did you just stick my bottom to this bed?"

An evil chuckle and she looked down to see him smirking. "You wondered how you would stay still. Well, mate, magic is very very useful sometimes."

Hermione knew she should object but he chose that moment to tunnel his fingers into her slick center and thrust a long finger inside of her, swirling it around and pressing on a point she would have said five seconds ago was a myth.

"Oh, Merlin!" She yelled arching her chest and gripping the bedsheets in tight fists.

"No, love, just Draco," was whispered cheekily at her before the man started sucking her clit into his mouth and pressed on that small button of nerves inside of her again, this time inserting two fingers to do so.

She wasn't sure how she didn't explode in an orgasm or die of a heart attack that instant. Instead, she panted and moaned and begged as her wizard set out to show her that she really shouldn't try to rush foreplay.

Her hands found their way back into his hair, alternating between pushing him down on her slick heat or trying to pull him up her sweat soaked body so that she could snog him senseless.

She felt him scissoring his fingers inside of her and let out a small yell of pleasure. She knew what he was doing, she had the memory suddenly of him doing this before. He was on the large side and he needed to prepare her. And he was going to take his sweet time doing so because when he finally got inside of her his decorum would be gone. She could feel that his need for her was too strong right now and he worried he would hurt her. She wanted to reassure him but the memory of just how large he was had taken over.

"Sshh, we will fit beautifully," he said huskily, his breath teasing her sensitive clit. "I will do everything I can to prepare you."

"I know," she gasped out moaning as he gave a long slow lick up her slit. "Please Draco, hurry." She could feel her orgasm building now, it was as if a sympathy was playing inside her head, and just as it crashed into her she would swear she actually did hear music in the room.

OooOooOooO

Draco felt her entire body tense and then release as her orgasm overwhelmed her senses. She was lost in pleasures sweet sympathy, and he let out a satisfied moan as his own need tripled. Moving swiftly he crashed his lips to hers, enjoying that she enjoyed the taste of herself on his lips, he wasted no time lining himself up and plunging into her warm, wet, sleek heat.

Draco let out a long loud moan, he was very sure this was in fact heaven.

He knew that he needed to let her up for air so he pulled his lips off of hers and stared down at her, lost in the wonder of the moment of them finally bonding. It was like a song was playing in his head. He paused and brought his hands up to cup her face waiting for her to open her eyes and look at him.

When she finally did she was smiling. "It's perfect," she said in wonder. "It's as if I was made for you and you were made for me."

He nodded his chest tightening. "Yes, you are, perfect that is. And I have already told you that we were made for each other," he said smiling back at her and tracing her swollen lips with his thumb. "Are you hurting?"

He sensed her answer before she even shook her head. "No, it's, well I can't explain it, but there is no pain."

He nodded and let his head drop to her should where he dropped a quick kiss on her mating mark, smirking as she let out a long deep hiss of a breath and her pleasure intensified.

"I will lose myself in you, Hermione. If I hurt you-"

She pinched him and kissed his shoulder, shuddering as he moved deeper into her. "You won't, let go Draco."

He groaned and kissing her mark one more time he lifted up so that he could watch her face, trying to stay inside of her thoughts so he would know if he was too rough. But the mating was calling to him and with a loud groan he pulled out and slammed back into her.

"I promise you slow and sweet next time but right now I have to claim you." He whispered huskily down at her.

She smiled at him, the sweetest smile he had ever seen grace her lips, and then moved up to snog him senseless as he pulled out and repeated his hard thrust.

"Let go, Draco. I will catch you."

With her reassurance, Draco lost himself to the call of his Veela and threw his head back as his wings burst forth causing his witch to gasp in wonder.

"Oh, I didn't see this before did I?"

He grunted and pulled her into his chest so that his wings could wrap around her, protecting and cocooning them as the mating took over. "No, I knew I wasn't allowed to keep you then."

He felt her hands move over his wings and shuddered. She let out a small contented sigh and then wrapped her legs around his waist, changing the angle a bit and causing them both to moan in pleasure.

OooOooOooO

Hermione closed her eyes and tried to memorise every feeling of intense euphoria being wrapped in his wings and scent as he made love to her was causing her.

He was indeed a bit out of control but instead of scaring her or causing her pain she creamed all over his hot length inside of her, easing his passage as he pulled out and drove into her. Deep, so very deep. She shifted her hips and locked her ankles, holding onto her mate for dear life.

Quicker than she thought was possibly she started to build to another crescendo. "I swear I hear music in my head," she said on a moan as he moved even deeper inside of her.

There was a hoarse laugh and then he hissed as he ground himself into her on a down stroke. She let out a small scream of pleasure and held onto the thick bone of his wings just at his back. This apparently was an erogenous zone, because he went wild, and suddenly he was biting her again and she absolutely exploded with pleasure. She saw stars, the world went white and she screamed her orgasm as he did the same, continuing to pump his seed into her long after he had finished orgasming.

And then everything went black.

OooOoooOooO

Draco regained his sense enough to not crush the witch beneath him and rolled, unable to pull his still hard cock out of her core as his seed continued to flow into her. He wasn't sure how long he would keep orgasming but knew it was physically impossible right now for him to move out of her. The base of his spine tingled and he washed int he pleasure of spilling his seed inside of her, it was milder than the initial orgasm; but still intense.

He brushed her hair out of her face she was awfully quiet. When he got a good look at her he grinned stupidly, she had fainted! He laughed as he cuddled her into him kissing along her face and neck.

Merlin, she was his, at last. His arms tightened around her. It was awe inspiring the feeling moving through him as he continued to spill his essence into her, she was finally all his. He closed his eyes and sighed in contentment. Nothing would separate them now. He had never imagined that he would be granted this extraordinary gift.

He settled down into the mattress and pulled her over on top of him, running his hands down her back and waiting for his orgasm to finally stop. From what he remembered this prolonged orgasm only happened when she was ovulating. He grinned as he kissed her mark again. The books were not completely clear if contraceptive charms worked in this situation. He had of course cast one on himself and her before he woke her up to ravish her. And knowing his very organized mate he would guess she was not a witch to forget her contraceptive potion.

He gave a large yawn and then nibbled on her ear. "Hermione, sweet little mate, wake up."

He felt her stir and then watched as her beautiful warm brown eyes blinked at him before she went still. "Are you still orgasming?"

He nodded kissing around her ear, loving how she arched her head and gave him more access so that he could kiss down her neck.

"Oh your wings are still out!"

He chuckled and moved to her lips kissing her deeply and moaning as his orgasm still pulsed out of him. He nibbled her lower lip as he pulled away from the kiss so that he could watch her face.

"Did you take a contraceptive potion?" he asked huskily.

Hermione nodded biting her lip and adorably flushing. "Yes," she said soflty.

He nodded but his eyes, he knew, showed his worry. "I did the charm on each of us but I only would be orgasming like this if you were ovulating."

Hermione went completely still and then shook her head. "Oh, Merlin, do the charms and such work?"

Draco grinned as he read in her thoughts and realized that she wasn't frightened by the idea that they might be right now conceiving their first child. No his wonderful mate was not scared, she was curious.

"I guess we will find out sweet witch."

She smiled at him and then sank back down into his arms, kissing his shoulder. "I dream about our children," she whispered as she pressed her cheek to his chest.

He hissed and felt his cock tighten. "Merlin witch, don't say stuff like that when I am balls deep inside of you!"

A giggle met this remark and then he felt her yawn. "Feel free to wake me up like that anytime you please," she said in a teasing voice.

Draco grinned and moved his hands down to squeeze her delectable rear. "Oh I will, probably every night for the rest of your life."

Hermione snorted and nibbled at his chest. "Mmm, I need a nap before we do this again though. Will it always be this intense?"

Draco sighed and ran his hands back up her back, enjoying how she shivered at his touch. "I think this was the mating finally completing, coupled with your ovulation," he smirked and moved his hands into her hair, massaging her scalp. "But I am rather sure a variation of this intensity will always follow us when we make love."

He heard her deep sigh of delight and then felt the emotion wash over him. "Amazing." She said simply before yawning again.

His smile was wide as he pulled at her hair just a bit. "Rest you wanton witch."

A few moments later he felt his orgasm finally stop and let out a hiss just as she moaned. Fluid leaked out from their joined bodies and he slowly moved out of her still hot passage, rolling her onto her back. He couldn't help the satisfied smile he got as he looked down at his seed on her thighs and cunny. Her sent reeked of him and it was bliss. He was going to make sure she always had his seed inside of her and he had no intention of washing it off of her.

"Draco, stop your possessive ramblings and hold me."

He snapped out of his daydream and laughed. "I will always hold you." He promised moving to drop a quick kiss on her abdomen, just in case their child was starting it's journey tonight, and then he pulled her into his arms as his wings finally retrackted.

"Will the wings always come out?" She asked in awe as she ran her hands over the spot they had just been. "Does that hurt?"

Draco chuckled and kissed her to silence her. "I don't know, but if I can't get lost in my possessive daydreams you don't get to keep us awake asking a thousand questions. Sleep, my mate."

A small giggle that ended in a snort met this remark and then she wiggld inot a more comfortable position and yawned loudly.

"I love you." She whispered kissing his throat as her head was tucked under his chin. "How amazing that I don't think I said that at all tonight, but it was all I was feeling."

Draco dropped a kiss on the top of her head. "The word love doesn't seem adequate tonight." He said thoughtfully.

A small nod met this remark. "No, it doesn't. I guess my heart belongs to you would be more appropriate."

"Yes, our souls are knitted together and my heart beats only for you."

Hermione felt tears well up in her eyes as she hugged her mate to her. "I think that sums up what I am feeling beautifully, Draco Malfoy."

A small chuckle and he finally closed his eyes yawning as well. "I want to do this again in a few hours, so sleep my heart."

Hermione let her eyes drift close and fell asleep with a smile on her face. Yes, she couldn't wait to do this again either.

Author Notes:

And there you go, at two in the morning on a random Thursday, my muse finally decided to fall into this story again. I just hope it lived up to expectations. I also think that Draco's new endearment for Hermione just might be 'my heart' which is the fluffiest fluff my muse has ever come up with.

I want to thank all of you for being so patient, I left this for so long because I felt that I needed to do this scene justice. I am not sure, however, that I will ever think this chapter is good enough so before I over think this I am going to post it.

Don't forget to follow me on Instagram: CrystalJeanRed
I adore connecting with you readers there.

Also, I am sending out a plea, if you find pictures that you think would work in this story so that I can make a collage please send them my way. You can DM me on Instagram. I am still learning all about how to present my stories in pictures. I am in a few groups for fanfiction on facebook and this is really popular, I just rather lack that artistic ability. :)

I am biting my nails hoping that you enjoyed this chapter, but I better go back to bed now before my muse does something else to keep me up in the middle of the night.

Cheers,
Cjean
