“Fuck, that feels amazing.” More tears rolled down his face before he closed his eyes.
I stood back letting him enjoy this moment. Turning around, I looked for a way to open the window. He needed the full experience. If I wasn’t worried about being caught by Zev or Aeon, I would take him back to my room to go out to the balcony. He could sun bath for as long as he wanted, and it would be easy to jump to avoid him if he did shift.
Finding a small lever, I opened one pane of the window as a small breeze flitted through the room. Lucien’s sigh was all I needed to keep looking for more ways to open the other panes.
“I forgot what it feels like to be in the sun.” His voice was full of melancholy.
I looked over my shoulder to see another tear fall down his handsome face. Breathing slowly, I tried not to let my emotions take over.
“The sun is the moon's other half. We can't live in harmony if we don’t have both,” I said, looking for another window pane to open.
“Are you our harmony, Katarina?”
“I feel like I might be the chaos in your life, not your harmony,” I said, peeking over my shoulder.
“Goddess, Kat. Don’t you see? We’ve been trapped in darkness for far too long, you're the light that brings us home. You're the sun to our endless moon, giving us the balance we’ve desperately needed.” He said those words with such conviction that it made me lose my breath.
I looked out the window, not knowing what to say. Lucien had always seen me as more, but how long would it take him to realize that I was nothing special.
“Lucien—”
“Katarina,” he said eerily, Lucien's voice was not his own.
Slowly turning around. I looked at Lucien with yellow eyes. My heart rate shot through the roof.
“I cannot keep the spell at bay, but thank you, Mate.” He walked to me. “Do not be afraid.”
He pulled me in for a kiss that left me wanting more before he trailed down kisses to my mark. My skin erupted in goosebumps as he nuzzled my neck before leaving one kiss on the bite.
The feeling was electrifying. All I wanted was for him to have his way with me against the window.
“We must go before we hurt you.” He cupped my face tenderly. “Go into the bathroom and wait for us to leave.”
“Is Lucien with you?” I asked, still a little apprehensive.
“He is, but the curse is pulling at us and I’m fighting it with all of our might. Go, my Mate, keep yourself safe and thank you. You’ve given us a gift that we are not worthy of.”
He pushed me back by my stomach, looking at his hand. A growl escaped his mouth.
“One day, Katarina, we will test your theory and why you think you're barren. I think you just needed the right men.” He pushed me back to the restroom before turning away.
I was frozen with his cockiness, but also so turned on.
“Go now, my Kitten and stay safe.” He growled loudly and I all but ran into the bathroom so turned on, I debated whether to rub one out or just wait for one of them tomorrow. I could definitely do a repeat of last night, but in the back of my head I thought it would have been even better if Zev would have joined us.

After I slept a bit more,Mr. Potter brought me a change of clothes. This room's bathroom had an amazing view outside. I sat in the tub, in warm water mixed with different herbs, enjoying the beautiful night. Mr. Potter showed me how to open a window and the fresh air came in, cooling my heated skin.
I needed this warm bath to sooth my muscles. Aeon had twisted me into positions I had never been in before, and my body had not been ready for it. It made me think of starting yoga to make me nice and limber because Aeon positioned me like I was Gumby.
Rolling my neck side to side, I knew I needed to get out and get ready. We needed to find another way to get the wards up without Zev. I had been trying not to think about it, but the thought of Caston coming back soured my stomach, making me nervous that it wouldn’t only be him coming back.
Leaving the warm water was hard, but I dressed quickly, pulling my hair into a braid. The door to the room opened with Aeon walking in looking around for me. When he spotted me, his face instantly lit up and I loved it.
“I know I shouldn’t miss you, but I do and waking up alone in the dirt is not how I want to wake up anymore.” I laughed when he pulled me in for a quick kiss. “If I didn’t have dirt in random places, I would ravish you quickly before Lucien came up.”
“I don’t think I need to know where these random places are, go bathe quickly and maybe we can still get one in before he comes,” I giggled, pecking him on the mouth before he left.
