Time was precious and we had so little of it left.
Unless we can find a way to deal with Lucifer, I thought. And I didn’t mean by killing him, but a real deal. A contract that would allow us to live.
It was a fantasy, a dreamlike desire that would likely never come to fruition. Just like the sexual image I’d imagined last night about fucking Cami in this bed with Melek and Az while Typhos watched.
This bed is definitely enchanted,I decided. But fuck if I cared about that right now. I just wanted Cami. And I had her. Naked. Straddling me. Kissing me. Hands on my shoulders. Tits pressed to my chest. Fucking perfection.
I just need to get out of these damn pants.
Cami pressed down against my hips, almost like she was agreeing with my thought. Fuck, it was like we were connected even though I knew we weren’t. We simply understood each other.
Her nails dug into my shoulders, her mouth responding to mine and allowing my tongue entry.
Our kiss was slow. Thorough.Intentional.A whispered promise between souls.This is our moment and we’re taking it for ourselves.
It wasn’t about forgiveness. It wasn’t about moving on from our past or about healing. It was about pleasure. Escape.Indulgence.
She kissed me with a fervor, her passion crashing over me in a hot wave of intensity. I allowed her to drown me in it, to suffocate my instincts and quiet every ounce of doubt I could possibly possess. Not that there was much left.
This woman had broken through every one of my barriers and had forced me tofeel.
I was irrevocably changed.
And I didn’t have a single regret.
Rather than say the words aloud, I whispered them into her mouth with my tongue.
She moaned.
I growled.
Cami provoked every single one of my predatory instincts, her mere presence making my incisors ache. I hadn’t been lying when I said I wanted to bite her. It was this intrinsic yearning deep inside that threatened to take control.
Claiming her would allow me to protect her.
Marking her as mine might secure us both. She’d be welcomed into Midnight Fae society. Granted access to the realm via our bond. Perhaps even gain new traits and powers as our souls joined.
Assuming I’m truly welcome here,I thought.
But that was a concern for another day. Another time. Not now. Not while I had Cami’s sensual form pressed against mine.
I rolled us over, pushing her back into the mattress as I deepened our kiss.
She ran her palms over my shoulder blades in response, her nails scraping along my skin. A subtle claim. One I echoed by nibbling her lower lip. Not hard enough to break the skin, just an answering claim to rival her own.
Cami grinned in response, her thighs squeezing mine as she hooked her ankles together against my ass. “These pants need to go.”
“Eager, little rebel?” I asked her, my lips curling to match her smile. “What happened to foreplay?”
“Our entire relationship has been foreplay, Ajax. Just fuck me already.”
“Mmm…” I wanted to fuck her. Own her.Biteher. Make her mine.Bondus.
Too much, I told myself.Too fast.
We’d been through hell.Literally.This… we shouldn’t be… moving this…
She arched into me, her body echoing her command and making me curse. Cami seemed as lost to this connection as I did. Utterly captivated. Ready for everything.Beggingfor my touch. My cock.My fangs.
