Chapter fifty
Thetasteofblood,rich and exquisite, coated Rune’s tongue. He swallowed instinctively and groaned. Every part of him hurt. He opened his eyes, recognizing his bed. But it felt wrong. He drew his power from his reserves below him, always aware of it. His power wasn’t below him here. It was above him.
Far above him.
“I have you.”
Rune turned toward Faye’s voice. Memories rushed back followed by alarm. He fell into the Darkness.
Lips were on his before he could speak. A hand gripped his throat, claws digging in, stinging as they drew blood. Legs straddled him, wet heat sliding against his hardening cock. Rune groaned as he closed his eyes. Her scent enveloped him. His night breeze through plumb blossoms intoxicating his senses.
Rune pulled back. The points of Faye’s iridescent wings arching behind her, framing her face. She smiled at him, desire clear in her eyes.
Rune thinned his lips, she would look at the Ra’Voshnik this way. Not him. “I fell into the Darkness.” Was he dead? Alarm filled him as he realized his mind was quiet. Where was the Ra’Voshnik?
“I have you.” This winged Faye repeated his words. She pulled him close by his throat and affectionately brushed the side of her face against his. This wasn’t Faye.
“How?” Rune stroked her hand, slipping a finger between her palm and his throat, coaxing her into loosening her grip.
“You live because you are mine. I caught you.” Faye’s winged double tightened her hold, pulling him into a kiss. “I have you,” she said at his lips.
Rune broke the kiss and eased her claws out of his throat. The winged-double straightened her back, her shoulders tensing.
Was she like him and this creature was paired to her, slumbering dormant?
He glanced over his surroundings, recognizing the hollow in the Darkness where he first met Faye. She possessed wings then too.
“Tell me what you are.” Rune brought her dainty claws to his lips, pressing a kiss to them.
“Want you,” the winged Faye growled, rising to her knees.
“No,” Rune said gently, shifting her hips as he held her against his thigh. “Where is Faye?”
She glared at him. Her lightning-streaked midnight eyes glittered with malicious intent, as her wings tightened to her body. “She sleeps,” the winged double answered, looking over her shoulder.
Rune followed her gaze, shocked to see Faye curled on her side, sleeping. Beside her was the Ra’Voshnik. He was certain when he woke he’d been alone.
“I saw you falling.” She leaned forward, kissing him gently. “You belong to me.” Another kiss. “I have you. My beautiful hunter.”
Darkness, being with her felt so right. It would be so easy to lose himself in the soft feel of her lips. To think of nothing else but the feel of her in his arms. He pulled her closer, and her wings dragged along his forearm.
This wasn’t Faye.
“Where is your body?” Rune asked between her light kisses.
“Resting,” she answered. Aggravation coated her voice. She seized his throat, glowering at him, before saying, “Above.”
She kissed him harder, demanding more, and Rune pulled away. She rose and he pinned her waist down. Darkness, she was harder to corral than the Ra’Voshnik. “I cannot use Faye’s body while she sleeps.”
“We are the same,” she insisted.
Rune’s jaw went slack as she fisted his cock, stroking him.
He drew a ragged breath trapping her wrists in one hand, holding them away from him. “You are different,” Rune said, lifting his chin at Faye’s sleeping body.
The winged double turned. “She is the vessel.”
Her attention returned to Rune, holding his gaze. “I am the power. You woke me. You’re mine.”
