My magic danced, vibrating in my body and making every hair stand on edge.
I remembered the solid outline of his cock as it rubbed against me.
I rubbed my clit between my thumb and forefinger, my hips started to build a rhythm. I chased my orgasm as I thought about the way he threw me over his shoulder, his hand poised over my arse, just inches away...
Sliding a finger in my warm, wet entrance, I imagined it was him.
Touching me, kissing me, telling me he wantedme.
Sometimes it’s nice to forget the strains of life.
Sometimes it’s nice to dream.
My orgasm came suddenly, my insides pulsing with relief. But as I lay there, covered on the couch, my slick wetness coating my fingers and my heart racing, I knew I was doomed.
Because whether or not Bane Lockedesiredme, one thing was for certain.
I desired him.
And I was going to have to shine brighter than the stars if I wanted to make him mine.
CHAPTER19
Bane
The day feltlike it dragged on forever until it was time for Professor O’Connor’s class.
I couldn’t stop thinking about Violet, or what had happened to her yesterday in that forest.
But I also couldn’t shake the memory of what had happened between us.
She’dfedme.
She had given me access to her lust, an act in itself that I considered the utmost intimate thing a person could do.
And she’d given it of her own volition, and ever since, I couldn’t stop thinking about her.
How her body curled around mine perfectly when she fell asleep.
How her bright eyes soothed my soul.
How her playfulness and her defiance made my heart flutter.
How badly I wanted to kiss her on her doorstep last night.
I didn’t think I was capable of this amount offeeling.Not after everything that had happened.
I’d thought there was nothing left to revive, to spark back to life in the cavity of my chest.
Even when I’d been with Anne, I’d never felt quite this... enamored.
This... infatuated.
Is this just chemistry or is it something more?
Is it... love?
I didn’t know, and that was both exhilarating and terrifying.
