A few hours ago, I was giving Alec the same lecture, but now I didn’t give a rat’s ass. Call me a hypocrite or just a monster thinking with his dick. I didn’t care either. I’d been called worse. Isabella was my one and only, and after a feed, my libido was over the top. If we both wanted to fuck, we’d fuck.
My grin grew. “What I do with Isabella is none of your business.”
I turned to go upstairs, but Kayden blocked the way, squeezing my shoulder. “Belle is our business, and so is her wish to have a baby. The heat is the best time for that to happen. Your venom or…dead fluids inside her hurt her chances.”
“That’s what you said the last heat. Only the two of youtried, but I don’t see her pregnant.” I shrugged off his grip and took a step up the stairs. “And myfluidsare not dead. Vampires can have children with humans, as well as shifters and demons. Who knows? Maybe myfluidsare exactly what she needs.” I winked, climbing up.
Ignoring the huffs and puffs of the twins, I entered Isabella’s room and shut the door. She was sitting up on the bed, her eyes silver with vibrant lines of gold, shining at me, sucking me deep into a portal of losing control, making me forget my own name. Her dark hair soft on the pillow behind her, reaching just the tip of her naked shoulder. Was she wearing nothing under those sheets?
“Did you have a nice hunt,Professor Asher?”
I bit my lip at the mischief in her voice, especially as she drawled my name in the end, my eyes glued to her luscious lips the entire time. I dashed without thinking and pressed my mouth onto hers. Her responsive moan traveled to my cock. My aching erection begged to be freed.
She consumed me with her flaming kiss, her hands finding their way underneath my jacket. With another moan, she drew back for breath. “Note to self: always kiss Joshua after a feed. He tastes incredibly hotter.”
“Only kiss?” I whispered into her mouth, unable to keep my distance. “I can assure you Professor Asher fucks more ferally after a hunt, too.”
“Oh. Is that a promise?”
“Indeed. The question is can you keep up?”
She arched a brow. “You know better than to challenge a Belle in heat, Professor Asher.” Her lips pressed hot against mine again, a moment that shot through my cold flesh with a wilding heat.
My kiss went fiery against hers as I, thoughtlessly, reached for my jacket to take it off. Then I’d become aware I was filthy, not in a good way. “Give me one minute. I’ll jump in the shower real quick.”
She caught my hand as I stood. “No need. Just come here.”
The fact that she couldn’t wait even for a minute tugged at the untamed beast inside. “Fuck. What about the smell? I’m covered in his scent.”
“It was a he?”
The intrigue in her eyes, a wild spark along that of her desire only more primal, filled me with urgent need for her. “Yes. Should I save you some next time? Or better yet, would you tag along? It’d be much more fun if you did.”
She gulped, thirstily. Then she pulled me back to her side and nuzzled my neck, sighing at the smell. It was obvious the scent of the kill was making her…wilder and needier.
“Do it, Isabella. Bite me.”
A giggle escaped her. “Really?”
“Bite me, love. Have some of it.”
“Your meal?”
I nodded. “It’s still there. Just take it.”
Her lashes fluttered as she drew back. Then she stared at my neck, her fangs growing but immediately retracting. She tore her gaze away. “The only human I’ve tasted was Declan. He deserved it.”
I shook my head and took off my jacket and my shirt. She stared at my body, now hungry too for what I had to offer. For me. “Perhaps next time I can find you someone even worse.”
“Can you?” She almost growled, ripping off my pants, the sheets sliding off her and revealing her naked tits and belly button. Damn. She was totally naked all along.
I kicked off everything else and plunged my fingers in her hair, yanking a little. “Yes, love.” I bit her neck, careful not to pierce her skin. Then I pulled her to my throbbing erection.
Her lips wrapped around my thickness with evident hunger, and when her cheeks hollowed as she tried to take as much of me as she could, I snarled, head falling back, fangs out.
I choked her throat as she sucked me, pulling her hair and bobbing her head, thick groans rumbling out of my mouth. Her hands gripped my ass, pulling me even deeper down her throat. That and the delicious moaning and purring sounds she was making almost had me nutting on the spot. I pulled her head off me. “Stop.”
She looked up at me, her lips red and parted, her eyes begging for more as my cock pulsated, cursing at me. “Why?”
