“Don’t look away.”He brushed his fingers against her cheek.“Stay with me.”

The plea, the almost prayer called to a hunger deep inside her, one she hadn’t felt before.She closed her hand over his and pulled hard at his powers.

He grunted but didn’t move away when she grabbed his other hand.“Fuck yes.”He let her take from him, drain him in every possible way.

The magic zipped through her, and she blinked her eyes open on a gasp.Perry—all of him, the man, his powers—he was her anchor.Her touchstone to reality.

Electric sparks sizzled along her skin as she rode him.She took her time, setting a pace guaranteed to drive them both mad.

A pop of electricity flowed from his skin to hers.The potent mixture of sex and magic thrumming through her?It soared to a euphoric high.

She needed him.

For a lifetime.

A lifetime might not be enough.

To hold him.To keep him.To love him.

She faltered, drunk on the sensation and the full realization.But Perry took over, thrusting from below while murmuring sexy encouragements.“You’re the most beautiful woman in any realm when you come.That sight, your sounds—they’ll play on repeat in my every fantasy.”

“More.”The warm air had her hair sticking to her face, lifting in curls that tangled in her lashes.Still, she didn’t look away.

His movements became more frantic.“Take what you need.Let me see you come again.”

“Almost.”The word came out on a pant.

He licked his finger and thumb and slid his hand between them, stroking her to climax.She reached for the impossible—a loss of control without a loss of herself—by yanking on his magic with every piece of her.He might have stolen powers, but she had the true power here.Perry groaned.Crying out, she let his magic fill her just as he filled her.

He held her like that, wrapped in his arms and still inside her.

“I could stay like this forever.”His words were muffled against her hair.

“Forever might not be long enough.”

He pulled away, just enough to stare into her eyes, but she couldn’t hold his gaze.She was too exposed, too vulnerable.What if he didn’t feel the same?What if he’d agreed to stay for any reason but love?

He stroked a hand down her back.“Agreed.”

The ball of worry in her gut unraveled with each skim of his fingertips against her spine.“Yeah?”

He grinned a slow, lazy curve of his lips, and the doubt left her in a rush.They could do this.They’d made a fake marriage into a real one.They could fix the realm and make little royal babies and still have each other at the end of every single day for the rest of their lives.

“Damn, that was hot.”He nuzzled his face against her breasts.“You’ve corrupted me.I may not recover.”

“Pretty sure you will.”

He laughed a dark, masculine chuckle, his warm breath tightening her nipples.Her body obviously approved of everything about him.“From you, my queen, a ‘pretty sure’ is as good as absolute certainty.”

“I knew I’d win you over to my way of thinking.”She shivered.The sun had set, and the cold night air chased away the heat that had been between them.She snuggled into him, but it didn’t stop her teeth from chattering.

“Do we have time for a quick dip in the hot spring?”he asked.

“I’m queen, and I say yes.”

Less than a minute later, she felt weightless and warm and satisfied in Perry’s arms with the hot water swirling around their naked bodies.

He groaned and leaned his head back.“Skinny dipping at its finest.”The steam added to his post-sex glow.The man was far too handsome for his own good.“How’d you remember this place?”
