"Fuck, Kitten, I—" Callum swore viciously, his control on his power slipping.
I gasped out a curse the moment his pain magic rolled over my skin.
It didn’t hurt.
It didn’t tickle.
It felt like a hand on my clit, like fireworks, his ice magic, andpleasure. Deep, delicious, luxurious pleasure.
I came with a violent cry. Callum went over the edge with me, snarling a curse as he fucked me from beneath, hitting every nerve ending I possessed with both his magic and his cock.
He knew I wasn’t in pain—he felt my overwhelming pleasure through the bond.
We were both panting when our orgasms ended, our gazes locked together. His shock leaked through that flimsy barrier between our minds, fierce and desperate andrelieved.
"I didn’t hurt you."
"Hurt is definitely not the right word for what you did to me."
"We should’ve done that ages ago."
"I said that at least a dozen times. You should really start listening to me."
"I will. I swear." Callum rolled me over, pinning my hands above my head. His wild waves fell messily, and I would've buried my fingers in them again if he hadn't had them trapped. "I’m not letting you off this couch until you’ve had enough pleasure to make up for your heat, Kitten."
"You’d better get going, then." I flashed him a grin.
The one he returned caught me so off guard, I gaped.
His grin widened, and remained as he fucked me.
It was worth the hell I'd gone through.

We didn't spendall day having sex.
We were both pretty wiped out after a few more rounds. Him even more than me, since he'd been so focused on helping me recover.
We watched the baking show after thoroughly exhausting ourselves, and ate too much food (and desserts, because we couldn't let them go to waste). Sable convinced me to let her take over after a bit, and Callum talked her into staying on the couch so I could watch the last few episodes by offering belly scratches.
He had definitely learned the way to her heart.
The fae king was far more relaxed on that couch than I had ever seen him before. Not having to remain in control of his magic around me anymore made a huge impact for him.
Sable fell asleep on the couch with him eventually, and he crashed too.
She shifted back when she woke up, leaving me naked in Callum's arms once again.
He met my gaze, his lips curving upward.
I couldn't help but smile back.
When he kissed me, I arched against him, and he slid his hand down the curve of my back.
The front door opened as he gripped my ass, and Callum pulled away. He grabbed a blanket nearby, tugging it over my bare body.
