His head cocked sideways. “Of course I’m okay,” he answered warily. “Why wouldn’t I be?”
I ignored everything he said to me. Even with him standing right here, I still couldn’t accept what I had seen was just a hallucination. I ran my hands over his cheeks, checking his neck, looking for any sign of bruising or injury.”
“D, what’s going on?”
“I thought you died!” I yelled at him, pushing on his chest plate until his back hit the wall behind him. “Isawyou die!”
“Hey,” Stefan whispered.
I broke out in uncontrollable sobs as I fell against him and felt his arms wrap around me. “I saw you die, Stefan. I had to watch it over and over again.”
“D, what happened down there?”
“Everything is a lie. Everything…” I cried. “I’m scared of what’s coming—what’s already here. Stefan?—”
“D,” he said firmly, pulling me back and pushing his hands down onto my shoulders to keep me steady. “I don’t understand what you’re saying right now. Did you find Morrigan?”
“Yes.” I sniffed as my eyes moved over his face, allowing reality to slowly sink back in.He’s okay. He’s okay.“Something… happened. They’re trying to wake her right now?—”
“Wake her?!” Stefan whisper-yelled. “Did she… Is she…”
I shook my head. “No. I mean… Well… Yes, she did die. I think? Nothing’s making any fucking sense anymore.”
Before I could spiral any further, Stefan pressed his lips to mine, and I felt all of my tension suddenly slip away. I melted into his kiss and relished in the taste of his tongue against mine.He’s okay, I reminded myself once more.
“I need you,” I whispered into his mouth. “I need you to touch me. Remind me that this is real.”
He didn’t say anything. Just reached a hand to the door, locking it before making quick work of his clothing. My fingers fumbled with mine, trembling as I lifted my shirt. And by the time I reached my pants, Stefan stopped me.
His lips were on me again, this time even gentler than before. His fingers dug beneath my waistband and slid them down with torturous ease, as every part of my skin that he touched blazed with need. I just needed something real… something to forget.
I neededhim.
Still on his knees, his lashes rose as he looked up at me, and my breath hitched the moment his lips grazed the tip of my cock. When his mouth closed around my length, I slid my fingers into his hair and gripped it.
“Just like that,” I panted as Stefan swallowed me, letting my head fall back and closing my eyes. Every swipe of his tongue washed away the nightmare plaguing my mind.
His fingers dug into my thighs, and I moaned, thrusting my hips so my cock slid further down his throat.
“Fuck that feels good,” I breathed out.
He swirled his tongue at the tip, sucking harder, and I could feel my climax climbing faster than I expected. Everything he did was perfect. Heknew exactly how to please me, and the second his hand cupped my balls, I let out a deep groan as I found myself at the edge, ready to fall.
I pushed myself deep inside of his mouth, and felt my entire body explode as I let my seed drip down his throat. My chest heaved from how hard I came, but as Stefan licked his lips, smirking up at me, I knew that wasn’t enough. He planted kisses along my waist, up my chest, and stopped at my neck, where he nipped gently.
“Feed,” he whispered against my skin.
He didn’t need to ask again. I pulled his body flush against mine and sank my teeth into his shoulder, absorbing his shudder with my own body. Nothing could ever taste as sweet as he did, and my strength returned in waves, my cock still hard as it pressed against his stomach.
When Stefan moaned, gripping my hips, I released his shoulder and brought my lips to his ear. “I want to feelyou, now.”
I felt his chuckle through his chest, and he quickly turned us around until he bent me over, forcing me to brace myself on a nearby desk. In front of me, a mirror hung on the wall, just low enough that I could see Stefan behind me.
I watched Stefan’s heated cheeks, and gripped the wood tighter when I felt his cock at my entrance. The second he slid inside of me, my eyes clamped shut, and my head dropped onto the desk. His thrusts were steady and consuming as he filled me, and before I knew it, his fingers gripped the back of my hair, yanking my head back up.
“I want you to watch, D,” he whispered in my ear, sending shivers along my skin in every place that his breath touched. “Watch me fuck you, baby.”
I moaned as his pace quickened, hitting the perfect spot that built my own climax once more. “I love you,” I said in a struggling exhale. Tears prickled in my eyes as I watched him. I couldn’t lose this man. He was everything to me.
