Charlie wasn’t bleeding but she was covered in blood, and I had the most intense need to care for her.
“Johnny…what have you done?” Kane didn’t step any closer as I pulled Charlie into my arms and against my chest. She wasn’t dead, far from it. I felt the surge of our bond locked into place between us. She was floating in her dream world, where I wanted to join her, but not here, not yet.
“I followed my instincts,” I said as I stood, matching Kane’s height as I always did but holding more authority than him now. With the bond in place, I outranked him as far as I was concerned. Charlie had chosen me. She’d chosen Levi. We’d joined her.
Kane had made another choice, which meant he was on the outside.
“You’ve put her in more danger than you understand,” Kane roared, spit flying, eyes sparking fire. “You’re playing right into Sal’s game with your lack of control.”
He lunged as if to take Charlie from me, his fangs poking just under his lip.
I took a step back, startled by his rage. I’d seen him unleash fury before, but this was something else.
Jealousy?
No. Something deeper.
Loss.
“Stay away from us until you calm down, brother.” I turned my back on him then walked out of the den. Behind me, I heard him pound against his desk, no doubt splintering some part of it by the sound of the loud crack and groan. Glass shattered next.
He roared so loud the walls shook, but I kept going and Charlie kept sleeping. It was my duty to protect her, to care for her.
I brought her to my wing of the mansion, my men standing sentry at the double doors. “No one gets in without my permission. Do whatever is necessary to give us privacy.”
Keith nodded once as he closed the doors behind us.
“Charlie, baby,” I whispered against her ear as I laid her down on the leather couch. “Come back to me.” I felt my desire to have her awake like a jolt leaving my body and just as quickly as it left, Charlie opened her sleepy eyes.
“I was having the best dream about you,” she purred, her lips curled into a seductive smile.
“Well, how about we bring it into the real world?” I started to help her sit up but she was like a spring and captured my face between her palms.
“Johnny, I feel you inside me now.” She kissed me softly and my body, already primed with need, took over my thoughts.
I slipped one hand around her waist and one into her hair, tilted her head, then kissed her properly. She opened to me, darting her tongue against mine, pushing her body forward so she wrapped her legs around my waist and her hot heat was pressed into my groin.
I would never get enough of her taste, the feel of her body against mine, tits crushed to my chest, hands wrapped around my shoulders, legs tightly clenched and pussy so snug that I wished with everything I had that we were naked.
The tang of blood, metallic and sharp reminded me of my goal to get her cleaned up but with an improvised mission now.
I lifted her with ease, carrying her while devouring her mouth, holding her up by her ass and taking her straight into my bathroom.
Sensing the change in venue, Charlie launched herself away from me so abruptly that I felt the urge to chase her, but she was only a few feet away, a sparkle in her eyes, understanding and intent clear.
“We’ve never done this in my dreams,” Charlie said, a sly grin on her puffy pink lips.
I somehow had sense enough to turn the shower heads on by the master control at the door, four waterfalls jetting from the walls, two overhead sprinklers raining hot steamy water down from the ceiling. We stood just outside of our ultimate destination staring at one another.
“You go first,” Charlie said with a seductive sweep of my body. “I want to see you for real.”
She’d seen me and I’d seen her, naked as anything, many times in her shadow world, but I felt what she was feeling. This was different.
There was no way I’d tease her with taking it slow. My cock was straining so hard against my pants that I thought it might carve its way out before I even got my zipper down.
Charlie licked her lips, and my dick nearly exploded. I dropped my pants, steamy air hitting my balls and making my cock bob then ripped my shirt over my head. I flung it into the corner along with my pants then stood there while she appraised me, desperate for her to strip down, too.
But she was going to be a tease.
