“I’ll do my best,” she said with a soft chuckle.
Eclipse focused on the flex of his hips as he rocked in and out of her, her body stretching around him, the friction igniting the flames within him. His fangs elongated, preparing for her offering.
“Be still,” he said once more as he dragged the sharp tips across her flesh.
Orianna’s hands clutched his back, her thighs tight to his hips.
He closed his eyes, inhaled deeply, then pierced her flesh. The soft growl that escaped was in response to her hiss of pain. He hated the idea of hurting her, but he knew it would dissolve quickly. By the time she was moaning softly, her blood had filled his mouth.
It only took a few seconds before she came, her sex fluttering around his. He sealed his mouth to her flesh as he took long, deep pulls from her vein. At the same time, he continued to slide in and out of her body, her slick heat and her thick, sweet blood drawing his orgasm closer and closer.
While he took from her, he gave as much as he could in return. Eclipse punched his hips forward, driving deep, careful not to tear her flesh with his fangs in the process. Long minutes passed but he was keeping track. There was only so much of her blood she could part with. As it was, she would require a much longer recovery than he would have if he hadn’t fed.
When her fingers slid down his back, Eclipse sealed the wounds on her neck, licked his lips, and lifted his head. He met her glassy gaze, realizing he’d taken more than he should have.
“Hold on to me,sezari.”
Her smile was so fucking sweet as her arms wreathed his neck.
Eclipse shifted his hand around her thigh, changing the angle as he thrust inside her again and again. He let her body consume him, giving her all that he was as he breathed her in. He was surrounded by her in every way. He could hear the rapid thump of her heart, smell her sweet scent, still taste her blood on his tongue, feel her smooth, warm flesh against his own. If his eyes had been open, he would’ve seen her beautiful face as he pulled another orgasm from her supple body.
“Come for me again,sezari.”
Orianna whimpered, her body clutching him both inside and out. He growled, let the pleasure-pain overwhelm him. The need to come was intense, but he held back for as long as he could, wanting to give rather than take.
And when the sensations bore down with an intensity he’d come to expect, Eclipse plunged into her again and again, squeezing her thigh and pressing his face into her neck as he claimed her as his. His hips jerked, his cock pulsed as he filled her.
Mine.
The instant the word came to mind, he projected it into Orianna’s brain, ensuring she understood this street ran both ways.
Orianna cried out once more, her muscles locking down on him, another orgasm driving up through his shaft, surprising him with the power behind it.
When his body stilled, Eclipse didn’t pull out of her. He was still hard, still aching. Instead, he rolled, taking her with him. When she was draped over him, Eclipse palmed her perfect little ass as he pumped his hips, her silky sheath reigniting the heat in his veins. They remained like that for long minutes, her body limp even as she moaned and begged him to make her come, all while her blood mixed with his, refueling his cells, giving him strength unlike anything he’d ever felt before. Not even the Fae could provide this sort of overwhelming power.
“Kiss me,sezari,” he whispered.
Orianna turned her head, her mouth meeting his. Eclipse held her firmly, one hand on her ass, the other on her head as he took them higher and higher. He didn’t let up until she shattered around him. Only then did he let himself go once more, driving as deep as he could, filling her with his seed. In that moment, he had his first thought of his female carrying his child.
He would later realize that was the first of many. Despite his many fears, Eclipse knew their destiny was sealed, their lives mapped out. And while he wanted nothing more than to spend an eternity with her, he couldn’t help but wonder whether he would ever be strong enough to do what had to be done. He wasn’t sure he had the ability to bring her harm in anyway.
Not even the thought of tying her to him for eternity was enough to calm that fear.
For fuck’s sake!
These angels and this goddamn motherfucking mating heat…
Kaj wasn’t sure how the hell they survived in this place. Didn’t matter that he had no desire to get himself off, his cock had a mind of its own. Damn thing was throbbing and the urge to come hovered within reach without so much as a breath in the damn thing’s direction.
Of course, he knew that ignoring it wouldn’t work. Nor would a hand job. The latter would curb the pain, but not quell it completely.
Still, Kaj remained where he was on the leather sofa in the underground bar, the lights off. He was alone. The angels had scattered as soon as that damn energy had flooded the mansion. Not him. Nope, his date was a bottle of JD. Every so often, he would French-kiss the damn thing, not bothering with a glass.
The night had gone to shit after that fucking shadow beast escaped, leaving Kaj chasing the darkness. That itch for a real fight hadn’t eased up one bit. In fact, it had been spurred on with the thoughts of traitors in his midst. The idea of vampires turning on their own … it made him feral.
“Kaj?”
The softly spoken word had his eyes darting upward, locking on the sinfully beautiful Fae taking the final steps into the room.
