“Mate,” she whispered and rested her forehead on his. “I’m your mate.” The need to confirm it, to say it on her lips was overpowering her.

An audible shaky breath escaped Kaden’s lips and she stayed frozen as she pulled on that bond they shared.

“And I’m yours,” he whispered back, his hand tightening his grip on her thigh. “Is that what you want, Alyra?”

“I don’t want to live in a world that doesn’t have you in it,” she said with a quivering lip. “You have brought me back to life and if death takes you, I want to follow.I choose you.”

His hand left her thigh, his arm behind her the only thing holding her up and he grabbed her face. Gently he pulled her away from him, his eyes locking on hers and she felt her heart beat faster.

“My soul is yours then, into eternity.” He breathed and pulled her into the most passionate kiss she ever had, sending her mind into a faint fog.

His hand moved again to her thigh and started to move her faster on top of him. Her spine tingled as she was filled by him time and time again, his mouth never relenting on hers.

He pushed her back down on the bed, his hand now moving back to her center and when his finger grazed her clit again, she gasped.

“I’m not coming until I feel you shatter around me,” he growled, a feral tone to his voice that made her skin prickle.

Her legs squeezed him while he worked her sensitive spot again, her mind starting to go blank and every nerve in her body felt like she was on fire.

His thrusting got faster, hitting the spot inside that made her entire body tingle with pleasure. He worked her clit, making her head spin and within moments she did just as he said she would.

The sound from her throat was unfamiliar to her, the whimpering scream filling the silence and his mouth covered hers before she woke the entire town.

Warmth erupted out of her, violently pulsing around him and her whole body shook from its intensity. Her mind went to a haze, the feeling of him inside her at that moment couldn’t compare or come close to her past experiences. She was in utter bliss.

His body tensed and when he followed over that same edge he just pulled her over, that bond between them locked in place. He roared, but she kept her lips against him while his body now vibrated due to his release inside her.

She could feel it, their souls molding together as that bond wound around every part of their bodies and when it locked around their hearts, she whimpered.

“Min, jafn eftir dauða.”‘Mine, even after death.’he growled into her ear and for the first time in her entire life, she felt utterly invincible.

Labored breathing could be heard throughout the room, both of them trying to catch their breath as Kaden gently pulled out of her and collapsed next to her.

Rolling to his side, he instantly pulled her against him and started to stroke his hands up and down her side. Her body felt like jello and her mind was in a blissful daze.

“Mine,” he whispered, a kiss pressing against her forehead.

“Yours,” she mumbled back, her head tilting to look up at him.

The maroon was almost glowing, the brightest she had ever seen and she dragged her thumb along his lower lips again.

Even though she was exhausted, she could feel herself stirring again and suddenly felt that thread tug. This time though, it was her heart it pulled on and not her stomach.

“What are you thinking?” he asked cautiously.

“How fate has a strange way of intertwining lives,” she mumbled.

He pulled her against him more, her breasts pressing against him and she had a harder time pushing away the heat rising in her again.

“Maybe, but I’m not going to question fate anymore, not when it brought me to you.” His voice was soft, and she couldn’t help but smile at the tender expression on his face.

“Who knew you were such a softy?” she teased.

“Only for you princess.”

He pressed a kiss to her forehead and started to pull away from her, standing next to the bed.

“Stay here,” he whispered and walked towards the bathroom.
