I nod, “so I know demons mate by sharing blood, mages recite a spell what about the rest of you?”
Jay starts, “well for shifters it takes a bite. A claiming bite on the neck, where I break the skin and it becomes permanent. It serves as the mating mark, like your arm for Nic or the pentagram for Jeremy.”
My nerves must show on my face at that because Jay gets up and walks over to me. He cups my face in his hands and leans in to give me a kiss.
“I promise it’s pleasurable Aly Kat, as my mate you’ll probably be craving bites from me all the time.”
My pussy clenches at the sound of that and I find the idea really does turn me on. I lean in to kiss him again and it gets heated quick. He tugs me closer to him, fusing our bodies together and giving my bottom lip a small bite. I moan into his mouth and I’m about to start grinding on him when a throat clears.
“As hot as this is, we should really finish this conversation,” Nic says.
We break apart but Jay wraps himself around me from behind while I face the room again. He’s nuzzling my neck and giving me small bites which are distracting but I love it so much I don’t complain.
I consider Kiran and Jax to see what they’ll say about fae. I wonder if it’s different for light and dark?
Kiran seems a little unsure, like he’s afraid I won’t like what he has to say so I encourage him to go first and get it out of the way.
“I have to speak a chant in fae then,” he pauses before putting his shoulders back and continuing, “before I have to send some of my darkness into you, to bind us together.”
I pull away from Jay and go to Kiran, wrapping my arms around him when I get there.
“I’m not afraid of your darkness, Kiran, and when it’s time, I’ll be happy to bond with you.”
He relaxes at that and I wonder how long he’s been worried about my reaction. I turn to look at Jax next who is smiling, glancing between Kiran and I. I bet he knew Kiran was worried about it.
“Same for me but different words and it’s some of my light,” he says.
I lean over and give Jax a kiss on the cheek before saying, “well, I can’t wait for that either. None of those seem like they could happen accidentally easily so that’s good.”
Nic gives me a pointed look, “but we still don’t know how you triggered the bond with me.”
“What were you doing?” Jay asks.
He has sneakily made his way back over and wrapped himself around me again.
I can feel the blush spreading across my face and Jeremy chuckles from across the room.
It hits me, “oh my god, you know? You can feel it?” I ask.
He straight up laughs out loud now, “ya baby girl, I can feel your emotions. Of course I know. Don’t worry, I don’t mind.” He finishes with a wink and I relax a little.
The other three clearly catch on and start chuckling too. Then, Kiran turns to me with a horrified expression.
“Is that what triggered it? Does having sex create the bond for you?” He asks.
He’s probably terrified of having to wait until we are ready for the bond for sex but lucky for him it’s not that.
“No, it can’t be,” I say.
“Why not?” Jay asks.
And I’m feeling shy again, I hope no one is mad about this. I guess it’s an excellent way to see how this sharing is going. I look to Nic who just smiles all smug back at me.
“Oh,” Kiran says, “it wasn’t your first time.”
Then he starts laughing and offers a high five to Nic, who ignores it. Jay squeezes me and Jax gives me a soft smile and I relax. They really are okay with things.
“Ya,” I say “so it couldn’t be that, but it did happen right at the end.”
