“Stronger and more powerful than I ever have.”

KINGSNAKE
I threw her onto the bed before I removed everything in a rush. Harder than the steel of my sword, I had tunnel vision for this woman, blocked out the world and all my responsibilities. As if I hadn’t fed, I was starving, starving for the woman who would be my wife.
My knees hit the bed, and I bent her to my will, planting one foot to my chest and pinning back her other leg with my arm. She was stronger than I was, but unaware of her strength, she let me dominate her exactly as I pleased.
I entered her with a hard thrust then gripped her by the throat.
Her hand clutched my wrist, and she released a moan at my entry.
I fucked her viciously, fucked her like she was a whore rather than making love to her like a fiancée. Watching her feed on another woman was one of the sexiest things I’d ever seen, made me so tense that my breaths became hard and labored. I’d wanted her right there on the spot, but I had to spare that woman’s life first.
Now I finally had her, seeing the way her eyes glowed in a different way because she was full. Mine turned green when I had her power in my veins, but hers turned golden like the most expensive jewelry money could buy.
Her hand held on to my wrist as she shook with my thrusts, my fingers so tight she struggled to breathe, not that she needed to. I hadn’t removed my pants, just dropped them down to my thighs because I wanted to burrow myself in that channel immediately. I wanted to claim the woman I’d already claimed a long time ago.
She was more than mine. She was mine forever. Soulless, in eternal darkness.
I squeezed her throat like I hated her rather than loved her, but it was the possessiveness that turned violent. She was no longer a fragile human who would crumple at my strength. Now she was a powerful nightwalker who shared my affinity for blood. Now she was my equal, the woman who was as entitled to my kingdom as I was.
Fucking hot.
She liked my violence because she came, panting as I choked her, tears watering her eyes. Her pussy was so tight, like it had the strength of my iron fist. She clenched around my dick like she wanted to bruise it.
“Fuck.” I hit a threshold I didn’t see, and then my dormant seed filled her, claiming her once more. When I fed, the blood satisfied my hunger, but it was a disappointment from beginning to end. It was like stale bread with wine that had been uncorked too long. It filled my stomach, but it didn’t fill it with delight. The Ethereal who had offered herself wanted to satisfy more than my hunger, my body as well, but I’d pinned her down and took what I needed before I left her there.
Larisa’s hand gripped my ass as she tugged me into her, claiming me as her man the way I’d just claimed her. All her hesitations and regrets had evaporated, and now she was as committed to me as she had been before the battle.
I was a man of many grudges, but I held none against her.
Not after I got what I wanted.

You sssaid this would only take a few daysss.
Every plan has a hiccup.
What kind of hiccup?
I can ask Queen Clara to grant you entry. She’ll allow it.
I don’t need anyone’s permission. I’ll be there ssshortly.
“Fang will be joining us.” I reached the bottom of the stairs then extended my hand to Larisa, not that she needed it.
“Good.” She took it and let me help her to the ground. “I miss him.”
We walked to the clearing where Cobra and Viper stood, dressed in their full gear for our adventure.
Cobra turned first, his eyes scanning Larisa’s face for the differences in her appearance. “You look like a whole new woman.”
“I feel like a whole new woman,” Larisa said, joining my brothers like she was one of us. She had a different relationship with each one of them, even Aurelias, a vampire made of stone. Her assimilation into my family had been effortless. Ellasara had made no effort at all, and it had felt like shoving a square peg in a round hole.
“So…” Cobra looked at me. “How was it?”
