“And I told you to stay home. Where it’s safe,” he says, his calm façade slipping as anger takes over.
“So, I was just supposed to sit around and worry about you being here, where it’s not safe?” I demand, my own anger igniting.
“This is my home, Eden,” he says firmly. “I am perfectly safe here.”
“This is your father’s home, too, Jesse,” I toss out carelessly.
Regret consumes me immediately, making my rising temper falter. I shouldn’t have said that. I shouldn’t have thrown his father’s condition in his face. I open my mouth to apologize, but Jesse’s hand slashing through the air cuts me off before I can utter even a syllable.
“The attack on my father is exactly why you shouldn’t be here. He’s over a thousand years old, a vampire, and a king protected by dozens of the strongest vampires in the world. They got to him, Eden. Somehow, they’ve sent Franklin Belloy to his deathbed. How hard do you think it would be to get to you?”
His voice cracks on that last word, and that’s when I see it. The edge of fear that’s driving his anger. My own anger fades away in an instant, and I take a step toward him. He holds up a palm, and I freeze.
“I should make you go home,” he says, and I know he’s referring to his vampire powers of persuasion, not brute force.
“Please don’t,” I say softly. “I don’t think I could take it, being there alone while the man I love is here…in…danger.”
The last three words are merely a whisper as I realize what I said. And Jesse’s expression tells me he heard it, too. Shock flashes across his features before they slowly tighten into something I can’t define. Something tense. Almost…animalistic.
The oxygen expels from my lungs in a whoosh as the room spins around me. When everything settles, I’m on my back. Soft silk caresses my skin as I look up into Jesse’s dark eyes. His body hovers over mine, and his teeth are gleaming through his wide smile.
“You love me?” he asks, his fingers brushing the hair away from my face.
“I didn’t mean to say that,” I say, unable to stop my own lips from curling upward.
“But was it the truth?”
He rotates his hips, settling deeper between my thighs, and I can feel his hard cock pressing against me in the most delicious of ways. He’s not playing fair, but at this point, I don’t give a shit. My entire body tingles with need, and I’d recite the fucking Pledge of Allegiance right now if he asked it of me.
“Yes,” I breathe.
“Say it,” he says, and his deep voice vibrates straight to my core.
“I love you, Jesse Lee.”
An orgasm rips though me as the words spill out, and I end up shouting his name. Before the aftershocks fade, he has my shirt and bra off, his expert tongue teasing my nipples before he sucks at them greedily. Within seconds, I’m writhing with need despite having just exploded with ecstasy.
Jesse kisses and nips a path up my neck to my ear. His hand kneads one breast as he sucks my earlobe, grazing his teeth against it before licking the shell of my ear.
“I love you, too,” he whispers, his breath caressing my moist skin.
My hips buck, and he grinds against me before pushing himself up to his knees. His gaze holds mine hostage as he unbuttons my shorts and pulls down the zipper. I lift my hips as he tugs at them, and he pulls down both the shorts and my underwear in one swift move.
His hands curl around my waist, and like I weigh nothing, he picks me up and sets me higher on the bed. My head sinks into soft down pillows just as Jesse’s hands push my knees apart. I whimper when his tongue brushes against my clit, a low groan vibrating in his chest.
“I love the sounds you make for me,” he says, then takes another lick. “I love your taste, especially when you’re slick with need.”
He sucks my clit between his lips with a low growl, and my hips lift from the mattress in response. Pushing me back down with one hand, he holds me there while two fingers from his other hand push inside me. Something unintelligible slips from my lips as he strokes my inner walls, pumping slowly as his lips, tongue, and teeth gently torture that sensitive nub.
Pressure builds inside me, and I chant his name on each exhale of breath. Jesse curls his fingertips, hitting that perfect spot inside me and throwing me right over the edge. I scream as my core locks down and my channel floods with moisture. He rips his fingers free and replaces them with his tongue, lapping up every drop with unrestrained fervor.
As I float back to earth, he crawls over me, settling his hips between my legs. Some part of brain realizes he’s naked and wonders when he managed to get his clothes off, but the errant thought disappears as his hard, glorious cock presses at my entrance. I spread myself open and lift my hips, and Jesse drives forward, filling me completely.
His head dips, and he presses hot, open-mouthed kisses to my throat as he begins to move his hips. Slow, languid strokes set my nerves on fire, building the tension inside me more quickly than I could’ve expected. He feels so fucking perfect, and whispered words telling him so slip through my lips as my hands burrow in his hair and grip it tightly.
His hips move faster, his cock filling and stretching me again and again as his teeth graze the skin of my neck. I know he’s going to bite me, and I want it so badly, I tilt my head to give him better access.
“Do it,” I beg. “Please, Jesse.”
