“He is my destiny,” I corrected him and took a step back as he moved forward.
“A destiny that makes you wish you were anywhere else.” He chuckled softly just as he moved in front of me. “Tell me, Starblessed. Is it your want for me that makes your breath catch in your throat when I am near or your boredom? If you simply need a man tocure your temptation, then please allow me the pleasure.”
“You can’t say things like that to me.”
His smile deepened as he watched me, and I knew that he wasn’t going to leave unless I made him.
“Your brother can satisfy my temptation just fine.”
His smile dropped as he stepped closer to me still. “I think we both know that is a lie. Unless you close your eyes and imagine that his fingers are mine, I think the only thing my brother will leave you is wanting.”
“The queen is watching me,” I whispered, and Evren simply lifted his stained fingers and ran one over the other before my room was clouded in darkness. Every lamp and the glow of the fire had completely disappeared, and I grasped the post of my bed as I tried to see in front of me.
“What did you do?” My voice trembled with fear and anticipation.
“The queen can only see what I allow her, princess. I may be the bastard prince, but I still have power.”
I could hear him talking, but I couldn’t see him. I lifted my hand in front of me, and I couldn’t make out the simple shape of my fingers.
“What happens in my darkness only comes to light if I choose.”
His fingers grazed my elbow, and I jumped at his touch. “Evren,” I whispered his name and reached out for him, but my hands couldn’t find him.
“I’m right here.” He spoke softly at my side. His breath rushing out against my neck.
“I can’t see you.”
“You don’t need to see me to feel me.” His lips pressed against my bare shoulder, and my heart shuddered as I still tried to look around me.
His fingers grazed over my neck gently before he ever so slowly ran his fingertips along the curve of my back. Everything inside me awoke at his touch. The mark along my spine felt like it was aflame.
“Fuck.” His one simple word made my stomach flip, and I wondered if his touch had felt as strongly to him as it did to me. “You’re so damn gorgeous.”
“You can’t even see me.” I reached behind me, and my hand met his hard thigh.
“Gods, but I can.” He pressed his torso against my back, closing the space between us completely, and I closed my eyes as I felt how harshly his breath fell from his lips. “Tell me what you want, princess.”
“I… I don’t…” I shook my head because I couldn’t make sense of what I wanted in my own head. There was no way for me to proclaim something I didn’t understand.
His hand moved around my body and pressed against my lower stomach. The move forced my body harder against him, and I could feel how much he desired me. He didn’t require words to make me feel his need.
“I could simply show you what you want.” His fingers lowered minutely, and even through the layers of my dress, I felt completely exposed to him. “I can smell how badly you need me. I bet you’re soaked between your perfect thighs.”
I swallowed hard as I tried to catch my breath. No one had ever spoken to me this way before. I should have been embarrassed by his words, but they simply made me want him more. Because he was right.
His hand moved down the front of me and down my thigh until he gathered my dress into his hand. His fingertips met the bare skin of my leg, and a whimper I couldn’t control passed through my lips.
“Gods, you’re perfect.” His other hand snaked around my chest, and he pressed his hand against my neck before his thumb forced my chin to turn in his direction. His breath passed over my lips, and I felt desperate for him to close the distance between us. “Take it,” he growled, and his hands tightened against my throat and my thigh. “If you want me, take it, princess.”
This was my chance. He was giving me this moment to walk away. If I didn’t want this to go any further, I simply needed to stop. But I knew I wasn’t capable of doing so. Not when he was so close and the smell of him surrounded me.
I pushed forward, closing the space between us, and he moaned at the first meeting of my lips to his. I was hesitant and unsure, but once Evren got the first taste of me, he left no room for my uncertainty. His hand pressed hard against my throat as his mouth opened and begged entrance into my own.
I didn’t have the power to stop him even if I wanted to. I opened for him, and he kissed me like he hungered for nothing else in the world. He kissed me as if every bit of the power that was prophesied to flow through my body fueled him with every swipe of his tongue.
And it felt that way to me too. My marks buzzed along my skin, craving his touch with as much ache as the spot between my thighs, and that ache was unbearable.
“Please, Evren,” I begged against his lips, but I had no idea what I was asking him for. I just simply needed him to do something, anything, that would satisfy the need that was eating at me.
