Hewas a vision straight from the hells.Hispale, smooth skin gave way to dark scales; his arms and legs were almost completely covered.Asecond, smaller set of horns hugged his temples, and his wild silver hair matched the glow of his eyes.Histalons sank deeper into the flesh of my ass as he pulled me onto his hard length.Mycore still spasmed with the last aftershocks of his tongue.
Ashe sank deep, we groaned in ecstasy.Isqueezed my eyes shut, overcome by the sensation.
“Don’tyou close your eyes now,Tori.”Hisclaws wrapped around my neck and jaw. “Youwanted to see your mate.Well, hereIam.”Windruffled my hair, and an audible whoosh had my eyes snapping open.Hisleathery black wings were spread wide behind him, blocking out almost all the light.Theonly illumination was the deep glow of his eyes and the tendrils of emerald fire spreading beneath the skin of his chest.
Isaw the god he truly was, beyond anything a mere fae like me was designed to comprehend.Hepulled me to him, again and again, each thrust growing harder, untamed as his moans transformed into something between a deep growl and a purr that shook the very earth beneath me.Hisbody grew larger than what should have been possible.Stilllodged deep inside my cunt, his cock swelled, stretching me beyond anythingIhad experienced before.
“Abraxas,Abraxas…”Icouldn’t think of anything to say other than his name as another orgasm tore through my body, making me completely limp and defenseless.Ilooked at him for a moment of tenderness but found nothing.ThemanIknew was gone; only the beast remained.
“Abraxas, wait…”
Hedid not.Hewasravenous.Hislong tongue tugged over my skin, capturing the blood that still dripped from my hips and breast.Thatemerald fire leaked from his mouth, and his cock pounded into me.Myskin became sweaty as the air grew unbearably hot.Hisclaws sunk into my skin without caution as his tongue raked my body, capturing my blood, my sweat, my tears.
Avoice, deep and ancient, rumbled from inside of him.You’remine.Itried to call out to him one last time, but my throat was scorched as emerald fire consumed me.
Chapter 13
Pallas
Iawoke to the sound ofJun’sstrained voice. “Tori, wake up!”Hewas shaking her by the shoulders whenIran over.
Shelooked horrible.Shewas sweating profusely, and her face was twisted in pain.Shewas moaning and clutching her arms, chest, and face.Hernails bit into her skin like she was trying to claw it off.
“WAKEUP!”Junscreamed at her, but the force of it knocked me backward, and the entire ship shook with its power.Tori’seyes flew open, and for a moment, they glowed an eerie green before fading back into their normal deep grey.
Jundoubled over, coughing, and bothToriandIwere immediately at his side.Butthe princess’ hands were shaking as she tried to steadyJun.
“I’m…fine…” he croaked; his voice was rough as if he had been screaming for hours.
“Whatthe hell was that?!”Avlynswung down from the rigging overhead, landing with surprising grace for someone their size.
“WordsofPower.”Ihadn’t really meant to say it out loud.I’dalways suspected thatJunmight use them to concentrate his voice into something even more powerful.ButHadeonhad tried too hard to controlJun, and that had stifled his magical development.Perhapswith the collar gone, he could finally discover the true limits of his ability.
ButasIlooked to seeAvlyn’sreaction,Isaw they weren’t looking atJunor me, but atTori, who was still sickly blanched.Herskin was clammy with deep circles set under her eyes.Butshe was still trying to comfortJunthe best she could without touching him.
Avlynwalked over to her. “Areyou alright?”Theyreached down to touch her shoulder, and she flinched.
“I’mfine.”Sheleaned away, putting space between them. “Ijust need a moment.Pallas, isJunalright?”Shewas asking me?
“Yes, he just isn’t used to using his power this way.”Buthe would learn, andIwould help him.Ihadn’t been able to save him, but thisIcould do.
Torigave the slightest nod of her head before bolting to the railing of the ship, and she heaved the contents of her stomach over the edge.Avlynfollowed her.AsJunstopped coughing,IheardTorimumbling, “I’mfine, just seasick.”Liar.
Thesun had just breached the sky, its pale rays barely making it through the thick mist of the sea.Junhad settled down with a jug of water, andAvlynleaped up to the upper deck, taking back over at the helm.Iwatched as their muscular legs bounded up the stairs but froze when they turned around, locking eyes with me.Theirface looked so soft despite the high cheekbones and defined jaw.Theywere so at ease sailing these open waters and so different from the warriorIhad seen on the beach.Thewarrior who had saved my life.Ifelt my heart race as their amber-colored eyes held my gaze for a moment beforeIdropped my chin to look away.
Islowly shuffled over toTori, who had herforehead resting on the back of her hands on the railing of the ship.Shestayed hunched over, butIdidn’t think she was going to vomit again.
“Whathappened in your dream?”
Herhead shot up; her eyes were piercing despite the unease that still lay beneath them.
“Nothing.”Shealways gave herself away.
“Obviouslynot.”Hergaze hardened, but the ship rolled underneath us asAvlynshifted our course, andToriturned green before she leaned over the railing and vomited again.
Ireached out and gently pulled her hair back, trying to ignore the clenching of my stomach at the sound of her expulsion.Eventually, she stopped and rested her forehead on her hands again.
“Ireally hate boats,” she mumbled.
