feel of his heat inside her as he thrust and retreated in a slow and steady pulse that mimicked the rhythm of the ocean.
    She released his hair and moved her hands feverishly over his neck, shoulders, and finally, she slid them down his back, digging her fingers into the groove of his spine and pressing to increase his pace.
    He lifted his head from hers, his eyes still glowing. Power was still moving between them, around them, but it was another stimulation, another touch to overload their senses.
    Lorai felt the tension inside building to a critical point, and a small circle of his hips snapped the coil of sensation into a wave that sent shards of energy streaming from her skin to skate and crackle along his limbs.
    Adam shuddered as her power spiked at him, and he paused until the spasms of her channel eased.
    His smile was slow when he began to move inside her once again. His abdomen pressed against hers, and their skin rubbed in delightful friction as he sought his own release.
    Lorai felt the prickles of electricity as he approached his climax. She lightly clawed up and down his back, cupping his buttocks with her nails digging into him.
    He pounded into her with a flurry of hard thrusts before he threw his head back and shook. Every muscle was tensed and each vein distended as his hips jerked in reflex rhythm.
    Bright silver magic corkscrewed around him, and the moment that he came, she felt the magic seeded inside her.
    Lorai held him close as he lowered himself to lie on her. She wrapped her limbs around him and stroked her hands through his hair as their heartbeats slowed into a normal range.
    The smell of the sea was still on them both, mingling with the scents of sex, and it was the perfect end to a very intriguing night.
     
    Adam was behind her with his hand on her belly. “How old are you anyway? There is a lot of power in you and that takes time.”
    She chuckled. “You don’t want to know the answer to that.”
    “Rough estimate?”
    “I pre-date maps. Humans passed me in fishing vessels made of skins, wood and reeds. I guided explorers and confounded pirates. Under the waves, I have had a very active life, but with the modern era of fey acceptance, I was only too happy to return to the land.”
    “Return?”
    “I spent some time on land learning the nature of my magic. I am water and stone, land and sea. It is a contrast that doesn’t always get along, but eventually, water wins.”
    He chuckled and ran his fingers across her navel. “So, my beast is in love with your other form; I am enthralled with this one. Will you be my mate?”
    She threaded her fingers through his. “I wasn’t counting on this, so I am going to have to say something I never thought I would.”
    He was silent.
    “I have to ask my mother.”
    Adam was quiet at her back. “Your mother?”
    “Yes.”
    “The giantess?”
    “Correct.”
    “I am sorry. With your description of your age, I assumed your parents had passed on.”
    “My father has. My mother is still around. Sort of.”
    He sighed. “I am sorry, and you can invite her to the wedding.”
    “She isn’t really mobile. I will have to go to her to ask her.”
    He nibbled her ear. “I will wait for you here.”
    She turned to face him. “I would not advise it. She may take months to respond. I am not really sure what to do in this situation.”
    He kissed her softly. “Now that I know who my mate is, I am willing to wait for formalities.”
    She smiled. “I am positive she will give her authorization, but she is my only direct relative, and I could not bear to wed without her approval.”
    “I understand. I will go back to my boat and look for treasure. A few months with nothing but my buddies will make you into more of a goddess than you already are.” He kissed her with a smile.
    She laughed. “I will have to talk to the guardians to find out how to manage my shop. Perhaps one of the beavers can take it over.”
    “So, that is a yes?”
    She grinned.
