“Something like that. You worried?” I asked.
“Do I need to be?”
“Nah, I don’t take but I won’t have to. You’re more than willing to offer whatever I want.” My gaze moved to the apex of her thighs but then I looked down at her ankle, brushing my fingers over that same spot. “Even this.”
“And what about my man, he might not appreciate that.”
My eyes shot up to hers so muthafuckin’ quick.
“He doesn’t exist.”
“You don’t know that.”
“You don’t have a man, Uri, and if you did, consider him past tense.” I smiled arrogantly with my eyes locked on hers, expressing why I was so confident. She was mine. Her words could say no but her body, magic, and blood were screaming yes. I also almost fucking laughed because the same jealous rage Xander had emanated earlier today was pulsing through me about a threat that didn’t even exist.
“So since you’re over there plotting murders, does that mean we’re dating? Wait, is that a thing? Do vampires date?”
“We feed and we fuck.”
She narrowed her eyes and I grinned. “You asked and I told you I won’t lie.”
“Well you’re not feeding from or fucking other women or vampires if that’s what we’re doing.”
“You don’t have to worry about sharing because what I’m craving can only come from you.”
“For only half of that.” She glared.
“Nah, for both, Uri.”
She stared at me for a minute and I felt her thoughts, heavy as hell. I could easily tap into them but I wouldn’t cross that line without permission. Not with her, so I asked.
“Tell me what’s on your mind?”
“What does that make this then? You’re only with me, I’m only with you. Aren’t you supposed to do the whole fated mate thing?”
“Nah, that doesn’t happen for everyone, and as for what we are, I can’t really say but it’s deeper than just being together. We both have the same need…”
She arched a brow, smiling smugly. “Who says I have a need when it comes to you?”
My eyes lowered between her thighs. I could hear the pulse of her desire throbbing there. “I smell your sweet ass pussy. That’s a need, baby.” I winked. “And I feel your fire. It’s bending to me right now and mine to you.”
She lifted her leg and it came down on my dick. “Is that bending to me?”
“Nah, it’s not bending but this muthafucker is damn sure standing tall for you.”
Her eyes rolled playfully. “But real shit though, this isn’t just us kicking it. We might not be fated but this need is a law of nature.”
“Fire claims fire,” she said with a smirk.
“You want me to claim you, Uri?”
“I’m pretty sure you already did.”
Nah, but it’s happening, sooner rather than later.
“It’s not official.” Yet. I lifted her leg and kissed her ankle. “Do you want it to be?”
Her eyes moved to my dick before she smiled. “Maybe. The benefits are very appealing.”
