Over and over.

“Fuck, you’re perfect. Come for me, solwyn.” His command was like smooth silk, equally gently and strong.

As I unleashed, coming apart against his thrusts, I screamed.

My climax had come hard and fast, the strength of my arousal tipping me over the edge immediately.

Nothing could be better than this.

No one would ever be able to touch me in a satisfying way again.

I was thoroughly wrecked. Thoroughly his.

He gave a fierce, guttural roar, then poured himself inside me, throbbing intensely as the muscles of my core clamped against him.

We both gasped for breath as he collapsed against me. His heart slammed into his ribs against my ear, and his arm curled protectively around my waist.

A slow smile spread on my face as I took in the tattoo of his Seal spreading over his neck and fused with the one from the oath rune. The ridges of his well-muscled back, the feeling of his cock, which was still buried deeply inside me.

Mine.

Every inch of him belonged to me.

“You were right,” I murmured, closing my eyes again.

“About what?” His voice was a husky scratch.

“You’re very good at fucking.” My fingers spread out on the soft hair of his chest, and I watched them vibrate with his heartbeat.

His laugh rumbled in his chest.

“So are you.”

I tried not to think about the consequences of this. It had been perfect. The restless exhaustion that had been stirring inside me was gone.

For the first time in weeks, I was whole.

Nothing else had happened, though.

All that fear and worry and denying ourselves … and we were both fine. Somehow, I’d managed not to kill us—and neither had the bond.

I barely dared to ask the question. “What happens now, Rykr?”

“I’m not sure.” His hand smoothed over my ass, then he gave me a sharp slap. “But we have a whole day to waste before we face death. So, I think maybe doing this would be a good way to spend it.”

I laughed and kissed him.

That would be perfect.

Rykr

Even though I’d shown her my underbelly, she still loved me.

Seren slept in my arms, her body warm as it pressed against me, the smooth skin of her ass tucked up so close that I’d woken hard all night. Fortunately, she’d been happy to wake up with me, and we had fucked on every possible surface of this room—not that there was much selection.

I wasn’t spent, either. Even now, my hand rested on her hip and every irrational thought in my body urged me to wake her once more.
