Page 22 of Hell to Slay

She was one hell of a demon hunter. She was determined and relentless. But she was also honorable and willing to change her opinions when confronted with uncomfortable truths. She didn’t run from her problems like I did — she faced them. She was powerful… and a total badass.

She wanted me, and, in her, I’d met my match. So I answered her question.

“You’re my coven-mate,” I said, letting my low voice rumble over her, knowing the effect it had.

I stepped as close to the counter as I could, then grabbed two handfuls of her ass and pulled her tight against me so she could feel my arousal against her core.

“You’re my match.” I leaned in close, my eyes on her lips as I licked that bead of blood off her. “You’re my lover.”

Then I pulled away so I could stare her in the eyes as I dropped all my defenses and let her inside.

“You’re my love.”

Mel’s eyes widened, glinting in the faint light of the kitchen. Then she leaned forward, her breasts crushed between us, separated only by her thin shirt. She finally kissed me then, her lips parting, allowing me entrance to her mouth at last. Her legs opened wider as well, so I could grind against her core.

We kissed like two thirsty desert dwellers who’d finally found their oasis. For the first time, it wasn’t lust brought about by a bite driving us toward one another.

She understood me in a way no one else ever had, all because the same darkness stained our souls.

And I was about to make her mine at last.

Our kiss continued messily as Mel’s small hands fumbled for the button of my pants, and I grabbed the hem of her shirt. When I yanked it over her head, her long hair fell around her shoulders, shrouding her breasts. I stepped back and unzipped my pants, giving her a striptease. Her eyes locked on that zipper, and she licked her lips like I was about to reveal her favorite treat.

Then I hooked my thumbs inside and pulled off my pants and boxers all in one go. Up on the counter, Mel was struggling with her own pajama pants, and I helped drag them down her ass as she pushed herself up on her elbows.

At long last, she was bare for me once more, and I took in the sight as she studied me in the near total darkness of the kitchen. I wanted her so badly, but still I found myself hesitating. I’d resisted this for so long. When I’d watched Jax bite her on the mat back at the Roost, I’d come to the terrifying realization that sex inside of a coven was never just sex. It always meant more, but I’d already confessed my love to Mel. I was in deep now. No going back — only forward.

She examined my expression, then leaned back on one elbow, put one foot up on the counter, and began teasing herself while I watched, just as she had on the kitchen table.

“There’s one more thing I want to hear you say,” Mel purred.

She had no idea how close I was to getting on my knees and begging her to let me taste her. But she didn’t need to know that. I’d made certain promises to her, and I intended to see them kept today. Just as soon as I figured out what else she wanted first.

“I want you to promise me you’ll fix things with Jax, too.”

I froze.

Of course she would demand something I had no power to give her. I’d pushed Jax away for so long, I wasn’t sure either of us could find our way back. With the way I’d used him to fuck Mel last time, I wasn’t so sure he could forgive me. But that kiss during our Lughnasa ceremony… perhaps there had been space in his heart for me.

Until I threatened his life and the life of his twin.Thathe might never forgive me for.

I stroked along my length, then stared into her pretty eyes and said, “These delaying tactics won’t work on me any longer, huntress.”

Stepping forward, I teased her opening with the head of my dick, just underneath where she was stroking herself, coaxing out her wetness.

“I’ll be the one in charge tonight,” I continued. “If you keep talking, I’ll find something to stuff in that mouth of yours.”

The glint in her eyes told me she’d like that far too much to consider it punishment. I thought I’d finally won when she stopped talking and sat up, wrapping her legs around my waist, trying to draw me into her.

But I’d told her I was the one in charge, so I couldn’t sink into her just yet. Instead, I pumped myself a few more times until my pre-cum joined her own natural lubricant. I teased up and down her seam where her fingers had been, making her gasp.

Then she reached up toward my chest. I thought she meant to pinch my nipple, but instead, lightning crackled around her wrist. When her fingertips touched my nipple, the electric charge zapped me.

My breath hitched as the zing went straight from my nipples to my cock, making it bounce. She tilted her head and winked, but said nothing.

That crazy little witch!

She drove me wild, and I intended to show her just how much. I grabbed her ass in one hand and her hair in the other, crushing her mouth to mine even as I filled her. She moaned at the sudden intrusion, her hands coming up behind me, her fingernails clawing my back.
