Kai pulls away, darting his gaze to the crimson streak. He removes the dagger from my throat and lifts it as if to get a better look. The way his eyebrows scrunch and release, tells me he hadn’t meant for it to happen, but he’s clearly warring with himself over it.
“I’m fine,” I offer, hoping it settles his nerves, but he’s still looking at the scarlet-tipped blade. “Kai, look at me. It’s just a scratch.”
His head lifts and all hints of the man are gone. Only the dark eyes of the demonic monster that lurks within both of us remains. The tip of his tongue peeks between his lips, darting through the seam as if he could devour me whole.
My heart races away, hammering against my ribs as those haunting eyes take me in. Fuck, I want him to. I want him to have his way with me and to do as he pleases. But here? He reaches forward, undoing the buckle that holds my sword sheath and tossing it onto the ground.
“The whisps are watching,” I say, swallowing the lump in my throat and daring a glance behind him. The glowing balls of light haven’t retreated beneath the water. They’re still dancing across the surface, like they’ve bought tickets to our private movie.
“Fuck the whisps. I haven’t been able to touch the woman I love for months and I don’t want to wait another minute. If they want to spectate, let them.”
His adept fingers work the baggy, wet t-shirt up my body, and the cool surface of the stone meets my back. I arch away from it and Kai takes that as a cue to reach around and pop the clasp on my bra free. Then, with a sharp yank, he tears both the bra and my shirt up and over my head.
Warm hands splay across my spine as he leans forward to kiss the swell of my right breast. It’s been too long… It’s only been six weeks, yet even in that short amount of time, I’ve forgotten the feel of his hands roaming across my skin. The way my body electrifies… Fuck, I needed this more than I thought.
My fingers weave through his dark hair and when his teeth find my nipple, I hiss out a breath. Pain mixes with pleasure, sending a wave of heat spiraling through my core. Kai’s kisses turn greedy, consuming every inch of my exposed flesh and melting me from the inside out.
“I’ve missed you,” I breathe. My voice is barely a whisper, but I feel the smile tug at the corners of his mouth as he trails kisses down my bare stomach. He heard it plain as day. Amber eyes lift, staring up at me. He doesn’t need to use words for me to understand. He missed me too, and that look–the turbulent storm spinning within it–is proof.
Reaching forward, I pinch the fabric of his shirt between my fingers and begin pulling it over his head, but he stops me. Since when is he shy? Before I can dare ask, his hands latch onto the waistband of my pants and since I didn’t get a chance to tie my boots, all of it comes off with a swift yank, including my panties. I’ve never been so exposed in public before…
The sound of his belt buckle jingling hits my ears, then he’s there, the length of his rigid cock splayed across my stomach. He feigns a hip thrust, sliding forward until he can’t anymore. The tip beads, threatening to drip above my belly button. It’s like he’s checking to see just how deep he goes when he’s fully seated.
Rolling my eyes, I let my head loll back against the stone.Men and their fragile ego—“Ooooh, fuck,” I moan. He must’ve lined himself up when I wasn’t paying attention. Slowly, his hips pump forward, inch by inch, stretching me wide and dragging deliciously along my walls.
“I could listen to you moan all day.” Kai’s voice falls low.Deadly. “So, come on, Little Witch. Let anyone in earshot know who fucking owns you.”
The feminist in me has taken a backseat. She’s taken the bloody night off.At this point, I don’t even know if she’ll be allowed back. The sultry tone of his voice combined with the dominant promises his words hold have my core clenching and sends ripples of pleasure through every bone in my body.
Eyelids fluttering shut, I arch against him and his lips slide down my throat. Each thrust of his hips is long and deep. My head swims as wave after crashing wave ebbs through my core, tightening muscles I didn’t know existed. He drives home hard. The air surrounding us fills with the sound of our lust-driven breath. Then my body pulls tight like a bow string, and my jaw falls open, but the words get caught in my throat.
I shatter, screaming my release in a string of unintelligible words. Kai leans forward, a smile stretched wide, revealing pearly white teeth. “That’s my girl,” he praises, peppering kisses across my fevered flesh. His hips slam against me as my body pulses around his thickness. Satiated and numb.
“Fuck the gods…” he moans, and even from beneath his half soaked t-shirt, I can see the bulges of corded muscle in his chest and stomach pull tight. His lips find mine and his body stills, then a growl sounds from his throat while he finds his release.
Relaxing back, I whisper, “I didn’t realize how much I needed that.”
Kai collapses against me as he struggles to calm his jagged breathing.
“Fuck. I did,” he chuckles. “I’ve been dreaming of being inside you for weeks.” His head tips up as his hooded amber eyes lock on mine. “I swear, you’re the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. It’s fucking Heaven when you come for me.”
I tip his chin up with a single finger and Kai lifts to press his lips to mine. Unable to help myself, I melt into him and goosebumps erupt across my bare skin. He tastes sweet and salty, and smells of lavender and sandalwood. His presence alone could drive me mad.
“As much as I’d love to stay in our little bubble, we should get back to Hell Hold. It’ll be dark soon.”
I know he’s right. Who knows what goes on in these woods after dark and if I’m honest, I’d rather not find out.
“Clothes me,” I say. Kai sits back. A slanted grin stretches his perfect face as he snaps his fingers. Instantly I’m clad in dry clothes–hisclothes, but anything is better than nothing.

Alice
We make our way through the sliver of forest, and down through the valley toward Hell Hold. It’s then that my cat burst through the woods on the far side of the clearing. Where the fuck was she? She usually hangs out in the Forest of Lost Souls, despite my urging to stay away from it. So, why does it look like she just ran a marathon?
“Oh, so now you come?” I shout, throwing my hands up in the air and letting them slap against my thighs. It took months after we returned from the Realm of Monsters for her to admit she could fucking talk to me. Imagine my surprise, and as it turns out, she has more of an attitude than I do.
“Well, excuse me for taking my time,”she says, speaking telepathically inside my head.“Last time I thought you were in danger, you got mad at me for barging into your mating fest.”
