Fenn’s entire body spasmed the orgasm shot through him, white hot and all-encompassing. He was breathing hard by the time he felt her retreat, her hair sliding through his fingers as she dropped back to her haunches.
Sienna trailed her fingers across his thigh, drawing his focus outward to where she still sat, between his knees. She grinned at him. “I hope you haven’t lost that magical rejuvenative trick,” she said quietly. “Because now I’m all worked up—” She raised herself up, her hands skimming along his skin, across his chest and over his shoulders. “And I have ideas.”
Fenn raked his gaze over the shreds of dark blue lace just barely concealing her nipples and the veritable ribbon that ran between her legs. He almost didn’t recognize the thick rasp to his own voice when he spoke again. “I’ve got a few ideas, myself.”
Sienna grinned wide and cupped his jaw, tilting his head up to meet her gaze as she stood. “Yeah? Do those ideas involve your face being buried in my tits while I climb onto your lap and ride you into oblivion?” She was already straddling him by the time she finished speaking, her words slurred by the tongue she kept sliding into his mouth.
He anchored a hand over her ass. “Fuck, yes.” She was absolutely an addiction.
It was a problem.
Sienna was tired and sore when Fenn dragged her awake the following morning, but she knew it was for the best. If one of her sisters had to come fetch her and found the two of them naked and passed out, very bad things would have happened. And that was presuming they remembered not to touch him. Granted, he had already been dressed when he’d woken her.
Does he even sleep?And if he didn’t, what had he done while she had?
She shook the thought from her head and pulled in a deep breath. The rich, enticing aroma of fresh-brewed coffee mixed with still-sizzling bacon reached her nose as they descended the second staircase and Sienna’s stomach rumbled. She’d certainly worked up an appetite helping her touch-starved lover explore his sensual side.
Fenn stepped up beside her as the staircase widened. He’d chosen a simple turtleneck to go with crisp jeans, all black, and of course he wore his usual sleek black gloves. His coat had been hung in the foyer when they’d arrived, at her sisters’ insistence, but the evening before had been so hectic that it felt as if this were the first decent look Sienna was getting. Not that she hadn’t had plenty of up-close-and-wickedly-personal views. There was just something about the put-together version that made her mouth water.
As their feet almost simultaneously reached the landing, Sienna angled over and pecked him quickly on the cheek.
Fenn arched a brow at her.
She smiled back. “Just appreciating your company.” It was a dorky thing to say, but she refused to be embarrassed about it. As difficult as her sisters had been the night before, she couldn’t imagine a pair of overprotective mortal women were enough to scare off Death Himself when he’d made a decision about something. And while she personally doubted that spending the next two and a half days in her hometown would enlighten either of them as to the secret of her death-touch-immunity, she believed he would honor his promise.
The trick was going to be in remembering that that was what it was, because the faint softening in the line of his lips at her response made her insides all warm and fuzzy. Like a brainless idiot.
The chime of the doorbell dragged Sienna’s attention promptly back to the moment and her brow furrowed. Yeah, Fort Veyelsa was a small town and her sisters were fairly well connected with the community, but it was early on a Saturday. The Saturday before Christmas, to be specific. Her stomach churned, the once-delicious smell of breakfast in the air suddenly making her nauseous. Was it some kind of emergency?
Maya bustled to the foyer as Sienna’s thoughts spiraled and Sienna cut a glance toward the kitchen, seeing Piper twisting nobs on the stovetop. She continued letting her gaze sweep around, as they had already been angled toward the dining area, and spotted places set for four. As there should have been.
Fenn exhaled harshly, as if he had suddenly become angered.
Sienna looked up at him. “What’s wrong?” She barely thought to speak in a whisper.
His brow was furrowed and his lips had narrowed into a thin line of discontent. “I’m going to kill her.”
Revelations
Siennahadbarelyopenedher mouth to ask Fenn what he meant—surelyhe hadn’t meant Maya—when her sister’s uncertain voice called out to her from the foyer.
“Sienna, could you come here real quick?”
Pursing her lips, Sienna adjusted course for the main entrance. Maybe it was possible Fenn’s powerset allowed him to see the future in some way, and he hadn’t wanted to be left alone with Piper? But that was equally ridiculous, and then she realized he had adjusted direction with her, as if to join her in greeting whichever townsperson had come to the door.
Sienna paused and laid her fingers over his arm. “It’s probably better if you hang back. I’m sure this’ll be fast.”
Fenn’s frown only deepened. “It’s not for you.”
That threw her completely for a loop.
“Just let me in, it’s cold out here!” The irritated, but distinctly feminine, voice coming from the entryway drew Sienna’s attention. She wanted to label it as unfamiliar, but there was something about it that made her hesitate.
Sienna hurried to continue forward as Maya’s quieter response drifted around the corner.
“Then maybe you should be wearingpants.”
For a split-second, Sienna found the response incredibly odd. She’d glanced out a window that morning. She knew it was snowing. She could already feel the cold draft coming in through the open door. Then she stepped into the foyer, Fenn half a foot behind, and came to an abrupt stop.
