Before she can leave, I grab her by the nape of her neck and pull her back to me.

“I want to be very clear here. I am not, under any circumstances, letting you go. So get ready for a life chained to this bloodthirsty monster.”

Her eyes nearly go black with desire from my words. She might not like blood, but she loves when I claim her.

“I do love chains,”she says with a wink.

For the love of fuck, she better run out of here because I’m about to chain her to the damn bed and fuck her until she can’t see straight.

I lean in close until our noses brush and we can feel the heat of each other’s breaths.

“I expect you back here tonight then, where I plan to chain you to my bed and never let you go.”

When she bites down on her lip, I have half a mind to text E and tell her we aren’t going to be available today. But I close my eyes and slowly exhale. I can’t do that to her, and Laney would hate to miss out on this day.

So, against every instinct I have, I release her and smack her ass for teasing me like that.

“I’ll be here at midnight.”

“Better not turn into a pumpkin.”

“As long as my prince charming is waiting, I’ll make it in time.” She reaches for the handle to the door when I stop her with a hand on the door.

“Am I your prince charming or your killer?”

Her head turns to the side, and she plants a kiss on my jaw before sliding out the door.

“Both. It just depends on your mood which one I call you.”

The wedding reception is a great time. Everyone is laughing and having fun. Laney is smiling and dancing with her phone while she talks to Arrow. She danced with Akio for one song, and I had to physically restrain myself not to make good on my promise earlier.

His only saving grace was the fact that he kept his eyes on hers the whole time, and his hands stayed above her waist. Not that I love the idea of any man touching her, but whatever.

The other thing that saved him was me watching him sneak off into the tunnels with another man. That doesn’t mean awhole lot since I’m into a man and a woman myself, but he isn’t pushing things with my girl so I let it go.For now.

Laney puts her phone in her clutch and starts dancing with E. I watch them smile and I even chuckle to myself whenever Damien joins in and makes their faces turn red with laughter. The joy on my girl’s face feels so good even from here, but it feels like something is still missing.

I pull out my phone and dial without thinking. The husky voice that answers has my cock growing hard in my pants in seconds.

“Hey there, stranger.”

“I came to see you right before we left, and I’ve called you every night since. What do you mean,stranger?”

He cracks up and I cross my arm over my chest as if he could see my reaction.

“I just miss you, that’s all. It feels strange not having you guys here all the time. It’s too quiet. As much as I hate that Laney sleeps on this damn couch, I also didn’t know it would feel so empty without her here.”

My attitude fades, and my arms relax as he speaks. I can’t imagine how quiet that house must feel without our girl’s constant talking.

“We’ll be back soon.”

“Good.” We both go silent for a minute.

“I got her to agree to sleeping in a bed,” I say finally.

“How did you manage that?” His tone gives away that he knows exactly how I managed that.
