“Oh, God,” I gasp, sliding my fingers through his hair and gripping it tightly.
There’s no build-up as an orgasm rockets through me, making me shout at the unexpected burst of pleasure. I don’t know if Jesse used his mind or if I’m just that needy for him, but he presses a kiss to my mound before pulling back and smiling up at me.
“Turn on the shower, Eden.”
I nod and shuffle to the shower stall on weak knees as he finishes undressing. Turning on the water, I twist the knob until it warms to the level I like it. Jesse pushes up behind me, and I tilt my hips back to rub my ass over his erection. His strong fingers grip my hips, and he guides me inside as he follows closely, closing the door behind us.
Spinning me around, he kisses me roughly before picking me up and pushing me back against the shower wall. His cock slides into me with unerring accuracy as he lowers me down a bit, and I groan at the feeling of full perfection as I dip my head to kiss his neck.
When my teeth scrape against his skin, he jerks his head back as he starts to pump into me, saying, “Not yet.”
His hand tangles in my hair, jerking my head to the side so he can run his tongue over the wet skin of my throat. When he reaches my ear, he nips at the lobe before whispering, “Come.”
Another orgasm explodes inside me, and he moans as my inner walls massage his cock. He mutters something that sounds like the word “perfection,” then pistons his hips even faster as his open mouth seals against my neck. He sucks, hard, then drives his teeth into my flesh.
I scream as I come a third time, this one the hardest and most intense yet. Jesse continues to pump into me as he drinks my blood, waiting until the orgasm fades before pulling his teeth free.
Then he tilts his head to the side, offering his own neck to me, and I waste no time lunging for it and biting down, hard. His coppery blood explodes on my tongue just as he grunts and drives deep in one last thrust before stiffening. His cock jerks inside me as he comes, setting off several pleasurable aftershocks as I swallow his blood greedily.
He doesn’t move when I pull my teeth free of his flesh, the wound knitting itself closed before I press my lips to the spot. He’s still buried deep inside me as he straightens his head and presses his mouth to mine in a soft kiss.
When he pulls back, he smirks, and before I can assess the meaning of that expression, he whispers, “Come.”
I gasp as another orgasm sets me ablaze, and Jesse rotates his hips, his still-hard cock hollowing me out as my core tries to clench down around him.
“Nothing is more important than this, Eden. Nothing is more important than you,” he murmurs as I slump against the wall in a limp, wrung-out mess.
“I love you,” I mutter, my lips curling up slowly.
“I’ll love you for an eternity,” he whispers back, pressing another soft kiss to the corner of my mouth.
Then he pulls out of me and sets me back on my feet before gently washing my hair and every inch of my body. I can feel his love. His devotion.
I do the same for him, and he watches me with those dark eyes the entire time. By the time we shut off the water and get out to dry off, I know it’s getting late, and his people are waiting for him downstairs.
“I have to go,” he says as if he’s read my mind, “but I’ll be back as soon as I can.”
“I’ll be waiting,” I murmur as he leans in for another kiss.
The kiss is short, yet somehow deep, then he breaks off with a groan, gives me a sad look. He turns to open the bathroom door, effectively bursting our little bubble of privacy.
A bereft feeling fills me as I watch him get dressed, and I scold myself silently for it. Jesse is king, and I’ve kept him from his duties for long enough. I just hope there’s not a stockpile of problems waiting for him since he’s been gone for so long, and that he can wrap it all up as quickly as he expects and get back to me.
Until then, I’ll just have to keep myself busy.

THE WARNING
After pulling on some comfortable shorts and a tank top, I set about unpacking our luggage. We washed most of our clothes at my apartment before we flew home, so after separating the clean from the dirty and putting everything away, I organize our toiletries and accessories.
I pause to stare at the ruby necklace for several long beats, fighting the urge to clasp it around my neck. As much as the piece calls out to me, I’m too exhausted to deal with the possible fallout of wearing it, especially when I’m alone.
Making the decision, I pull open the drawer of my nightstand and drop it inside before closing the drawer. My stomach twists with hunger as I straighten, and I make a mental note to ask Jesse to line up a donor for me later tonight.
I slump onto the edge of the mattress, thinking about the last time I ate. It was the night Bernadette died, when I drained the witch responsible for her death. Guinevere, who was actually no longer a witch after delivering the magical blow that took Aunt Bernie’s life, setting into motion the curse that stripped her entire coven’s magic from them.
Scooting back, I stretch out on the bed and close my eyes, forcing myself to think of better days. Bernadette serving coffee and tea to Steph and me at the shop. When I was just an author, and Steph was just my best friend. No witches. No vampires. No deaths on my conscience.
