“I need to pull harder,” I breatheout.
The ball pulses in time with my heartbeat and a strong electric current seems to set every cell in me ablaze. A bead of sweat rolls down my temple, and I struggle to keep my breathing at a steady pace. My core clenches as Valen runs a hand down my inner thigh. I feel his hard cock press against me, and I push back, rubbing against him. We both moan at the symphony of sensations happening, and the thread loosens a bit.
“Fuck, almost there.”
We both give a final hard yank. I truly think it’s working when I’m thrown out of my mind by an invisible force and my eyes fling open.
Heart racing, I rub my face and force my sweaty hair back. I blow out the breath I didn’t know I was holding and grind down in sexual frustration at the release I didn’t have but desperately need.
An animalistic growl has me stiffening and jerking my eyes up to meet the predator in front of me. Valen’s brown eyes simmer with unabashed heat and his fangs protrude over his lips. The deadly vampire we’re taught to fear is right in front of me, and I’m planted on his lap.
Fuck me.
CHAPTER 30
VALEN
The hungerthat courses through me is all-consuming. Not only do I long for her blood and to claim what’s mine, but I yearn for the soul-searing connection that will take place when I finally have her.
I inhale deeply at the junction of Ava’s neck where her pulse is the strongest. Blood rushes through her artery at an enticing pace, and my fangs ache to puncture her skin. Running a hand over her shoulder, I see her bright purple aura grow in excitement.
Ava grinds down on me, and I groan as my cock desperately jerks in my sweatpants. This last attempt at her powers felt more like a push from her magic forusto come together.
Who am I to argue with fate?
“Ava,” I snarl as the heat reaches a fever pitch. “I’m not going to be able to stop if you continue. Be sure it’s what you want.” She whines on my lap, and the sound propels me forward.
Throwing her over my shoulder, I take her into the bedroom and kick the door closed behind me with one foot. I’m not about to subject Pom Pom’s innocent eyes to this.
She’s light as a feather as I drop her gently onto the bed where she bounces for a second then sinks into the mattress. Ava reaches out to me where I stand, yanking my shirt over my head.
“Valen,” she beckons like a siren to the sea. “I need you.” My inner beast rumbles at me to satiate my mate. I’ve never felt anything like this before. This amount of desire for one person seems impossible. But everything inside me is shouting to make her mine.
Crawling up her body, I take care to drag mine across hers so we’re touching at almost all points. My body doesn’t generate heat as a vampire, but if it could, I would be just as scorching hot as her skin is.
“Where do you need me, Starlight?” I croon while I skate my fangs along her collarbone.
I might be unfamiliar with sex and the details, but instinctively, my body seems to know what to do.
“Fuck,” she mumbles. “I need you inside me. I want your fangs in my skin and your cock in my pussy.” I blanch at her dirty words but feel my body react with lust and desire. Ava is unashamedly herself in every way, and I find it endearing, but it also throws me off when she says or does things I do not expect. Self-consciousness begins to leach in as I’m reminded that I’ve never had sex before.
Ava notices my sudden stiffness and runs her delicate fingers through the hair at my nape. “What’s wrong? Are you okay? Do you want to stop?”
I should’ve known she’d notice immediately. She’s as in tune with me as I am her.
“As you know, I am a virgin. Everything I’ve done with youhas been a first. And now that we’re taking the final step, I find myself nervous. I don’t want to disappoint you with my lack of experience,” I admit. “There are also still times I flinch at touch. I don’t want to dissuade you, and I don’t want this to be a poor experience for you.”
Ava relaxes and pulls my head out of her neck to smile at me. “Valen, you could never disappoint me. Don’t get in your head about this. Just do what feels right.” I’m hypnotized by the slow stroke of her hand down my chest. “Has anything between us ever felt wrong?” I shake my head in response, and she rewards me with a kiss. “I’ll show you what I like. If I ever make you uncomfortable, just let me know. You’re here with me, and I want to make sure you feel safe.”
Her hand pushes up on my chest, and I follow her ministrations until I’m on my back and she’s seated astride me. “I need you to relax,” Ava purrs, and I gasp as she rubs my cock over my pants.
Everything with Ava feels good. Too good.
“Your friend here seems eager to say hello,” she teases with a coy smile.
She pulls my sweatpants down, and my heavy cock bobs between us. We work together to get my pants off completely and her eyes twinkle at the absence of underwear since I decided to forgo them when I changed. An embarrassing sound comes out of me when she blows on the tip.
“Aw, look at you splayed out and desperate for me.” The vixen looks victorious at the sight of me at her mercy, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. “My favorite snack,” she breathes out before licking the underside of my shaft and sucking it into her mouth.
