I felt like I should be scared but all I wanted to do was run away until they chased me, catching me and having their way with me.
“Soon, Kitten.” Aeon looked down at me with a voice that sounded like him, but was otherworldly. It was like he knew what I was thinking. He rubbed his nose against mine before releasing me.
I expected him to shift immediately, but he walked away like he wasn’t worried he was going to lose control.
“Come on Kit Kat, let’s get you to bed before the curse calls to me.” Lucien pulled me away.
“I want to go to your room,” I said, feeling the need to stay closer to him in some way.
“Ok, we can do that.” He smiled as we walked up the stairs.
“Why do you think that you’re not shifting like Aeon and Zev?”
“I wanted to say it was cause we mated but right now Aeon just held off for almost fifteen minutes, and yesterday he said he shifted before three am.” He opened the door to his room. “I do feel like it has something to do with you, but I’m not a hundred percent sure.”
“It could be because we mated,” I said, thinking that’s the only thing that made sense or that had changed.
“From what Mr. Potter says, Zev hasn’t shifted earlier or later,” he said, taking my bag from me and sitting it on a chair.
“Mmmm, do you have another theory?” I asked, as Lucien started to undress me. It wasn’t sexual as he took off my clothes but once I was naked he admired me before he went to a dresser to grab one of his shirts.
“I do have a theory, but I’m not sure it’s right.” He led me into the bath, helping me get into the tub. The warm water and herbs were a balm to my achy body. “I’m worried something is happening to the magic that is keeping the spell fueled. It’s either running out or maybe our curse is coming to an end and…”
He squatted next to me running his hand along the water as I got comfortable. Lucien looked lost in thought, his eyes flashing yellow before going back to his human honey eyes.
“Lu,” I said, turning my body to look him in the eye. “We will find a way to break the curse.
“I’m worried we are both running out of time,” he said, looking at me with worry in his eyes before they flashed back to yellow. “Let’s get you washed up before I leave.”
Lucien washed my hair, my body and dried me off with a big fluffy towel. I was nervous he was going to shift, but he looked to have total control. He slipped a shirt on me buttoning it before he turned me around to brush my hair then tucked me into bed.
“Now go to sleep, I’ll see you tomorrow for Maybon.” He kissed my forehead before he leaned his against mine. “Now, stop worrying because you’re making me worry. I’ve had no urge to shift.”
“It’s taking everything for me not to look at my watch. I just—”
“I would never do anything that would endanger you on purpose,” he interrupted me. “I’m going to go, but not because I need to, but because I want you to feel safe.”
I cupped his cheek bringing his lips closer to me, kissing him deeply feeling the spark of desire. I deepened the kiss, tugging him into the bed.
“Kit Kat, don’t tempt me, I don’t want to shift mid-release when I feel the need to or worse, I shift while I’m deep inside of you.”
I laughed at the not funny picture, but knowing my luck, that would happen.
“Yeah, I don’t think I’m a furry, or into bestiality.”
Lucien gave me a weird look before he got up, making me laugh harder.
“I don’t think I want to know.”
“Yeah, I don’t think I have time to dive into that right now.”
“Get some rest,” he said, smirking. “Good night, beautiful.”
“Good night,” I said, feeling my heart full with happiness just being near him. Lucien closed the door while I leaned back into his bed enjoying his scent, thinking I needed to sleep here from now on. After leaving him, I always felt anxious but this calmed my nerves, giving me peace. I needed more peace in my life… and sex. Damn him for leaving me with this ache.
