“It’s a shame you can’t punch your way into her mind to find out if she’s responsible.”
It was a shame. But Kendra was a breed of demon known as a ‘nightmare.’ There was only one thing he would find if he invaded her mind: his worst nightmare.
“You could still invade Carla’s mind. I mean, I get that if the lair thought you’ll happily go around forcing your way into people’s minds, you could lose their trust and loyalty. But you have good reason here. They would understand if you explained the situation.”
Knox curled a strand of Harper’s hair around his finger. “There would be no point. I lightly touched Carla’s mind when she came to my office. It seems that Harper inherited her unusual shields from her mother.”
“Unusual?”
“They have the psychic equivalent of steel barbs. No one could get through them without doing major damage to their own psyche.”
Levi winced. “Then I guess we’ll just have to keep an eye on both Kendra and Carla. Have you told Harper that Kendra could be her half-sister?”
“Not yet.”
“Why?”
“Because I know Harper. Maybe better than even she does. And she already had plenty of reasons in her pretty little head to not form the anchor bond. I didn’t want to give her another. Now, it could be that it wouldn’t have bothered Harper to know that her anchor had an extremely brief fling with a half-sister she doesn’t even know. But anchors can be very possessive of each other, and it does apply in our situation. So there was a chance it would have bothered her. In any case, she would have undoubtedly grasped onto it as another reason to avoid bonding.”
Levi gave him a knowing look. “And you didn’t want to give her a reason for it to maybe feel a little weird to get in your bed.”
“No, I didn’t.”
“When are you planning to tell her?” There was a hardness in Levi’s voice that told Knox the reaper fully expected Knox to do so and would be thoroughly pissed if he didn’t. Knox arched a brow at his sentinel’s tone.
Levi shrugged. “I like her. I don’t want her upset.”
Neither did Knox. “I’ll tell her tomorrow. Hopefully she won’t make me pay too harsh a price for keeping it from her.”
Levi grinned. “Oh, she’ll make you pay.”
He was probably right. As Harper’s body shifted restlessly, Knox sighed. “I better put her to bed before she rolls off the couch.” She didn’t fuss when he scooped her up and cradled her against his chest, but her mouth did settle into a cute pout that he wanted to kiss right off her face. Four hours. He’d give her four hours to recover, and then he’d take her the way he’d wanted to for the past four days. He’d developed an addiction for her hot little body, and he fully intended to indulge it.
CHAPTER NINE
Wake up for me, Harper.
Harper’s eyes snapped open as a hot tongue licked at her. She wasn’t sure whether it was the telepathic call that woke her or the talented tongue that was now swirling around her clit. A moan slipped out of her, earning her a growl of approval from the male settled between her thighs.
“For four long days, I’ve thought about this pussy, about how it tastes.” The thickly spoken words rumbled against her slick folds. The tip of Knox’s tongue flicked at her clit just before his teeth gave it a light nip. She bucked, and his hands firmly pinned her down by her hips. “Be still.”
“It’s a little hard not to move when—” A gasp flew out of her as ice-cold fingers pinched her nipple. “Shit.” Like last time, the fingers made her flesh burn and tingle in the best way. They pinched, tweaked, plucked, and circled her nipples while Knox licked and sipped at her pussy like it was some kind of delicacy. Then he plunged a finger inside her; every thrust was slow, deliberate, and a taunt that made her pussy ripple and clench.
It was a sensual assault, and she couldn’t take anymore. “Knox, I need to come.”
“Not yet.”
“Then you need to get in me fast.” She shuddered as he blew over her clit while his psychic fingers plucked at her nipples again. “Motherfucker.” Chuckling, he rose above her…and his hot mouth landed on her taut, cold, tingling nipple. “Oh, fuck.” Making it worse, two icy psychic fingers slid deep in her, burning her from the inside out as her pussy began to blaze and quiver.
Knox suckled on the hard bud, watching as she trembled beneath him from the onslaught he was subjecting her to; she writhed and arched, curving her restless, delectable body into his. She was so fucking sensual and responsive. So fucking his. He bit the curve of her breast, sure to leave a mark. Her head shot up as her eyes swirled from a soft violet to an electric blue.
“Enough teasing!”
“But I like teasing you.”
“If you expect to ever fuck me again, you’ll get inside me now.” Harper stilled as Knox’s demon suddenly took control. It was hard to read those eyes, but she could swear the entity was pissed. “Um…”
A hand clamped possessively around her pussy. “Mine. Mine to fuck whenever I want it.”
Then she felt a familiar prickling beneath the hand as her skin began to heat, and she knew exactly what it was doing. She shook her head. “No. Not there.” The flesh under its hand suddenly felt like it was on fire. Yet, what should have been sheer agony was sheer pleasure; she arched into the hand, so damn close to exploding.
