“And you’re naked.” Ajax’s voice sounded like it’d been scraped raw, his hand flexing on my hip.
The statement jarred loose a memory of shucking my robe sometime during the night. “I got hot,” I explained.
“And now?” Ajax asked, planting tender kisses down the column of my throat. “How do you feel now?”
Somewhere in the back of my brain were lingering questions that had chased me into sleep—how this was real, what was happening, what had the woman meant about being a half-blood, and on and on and on.
But, since I was still dancing in that beautiful space between reality and dreamland, I chose to vehemently ignore them.
Instead, I gave myself over entirely to the physical present and arched against him, wanting to give him better access to my neck. “I feel achy,” I admitted.
“Where?” he asked, tensing against me as his eyes roamed over my body as if he was looking for an injury.
“Everywhere you touch,” I clarified, sliding my fingers into his hair, pulling him closer as I rolled my hips against him again. A gasp stole through me at what I felt, that hard length of him barely restrained by his boxer briefs. I brought my mouth to his, my eyes finally adjusting to see his face clearly in the darkness.
God, he was magnificent. Those dark eyes drank me in like warm pools of melted chocolate, and the hungry look churning there had me shivering with anticipation.
“What about here?” he asked, inching his lips toward me, holding me in a suspended moment that stretched on forever before he slanted his mouth over mine.
I whimpered at the contact, at the relief that tingled along my body when his lips met mine. He tasted like spice, an invigorating flavor that I wanted to drink by the barrel. His hand slipped over my thigh, hooking my leg over his hip as his tongue explored my mouth with powerful flicks and consuming thrusts.
His kiss awakened every inch of my body, of mysoul,as he took control, pressing that hard length against me as he devoured my mouth.
“Yes,” I sighed between his lips, finally answering his question.
He pulled back enough to look down at me, a smirk shaping his lips. “And what about here?” he asked, shifting us so he was above me, his muscled body between my thighs as he leaned down and trailed the tip of his tongue over my collarbone, right where that mark had magically appeared.
“Yes,” I said, arching beneath him, needing to feel more of him.
A low groan rumbled in his chest as he moved above me. He took his time kissing my neck and lower, to my breasts which were bare and heavy as he palmed them. Fire licked every inch of my skin, making me hot and sensitive as he moved in slow, languid teases.
“Here?” he asked, and I trembled as he flicked his tongue over one nipple, then the other, moving back and forth, sucking and biting and teasing until my nipples were peaked and tingling.
“Yes,” I answered, desperation and bliss coloring my tone. I loved the game we were playing, but Ajax was taking his time with me when I ached to the point of pain for him.
He grinned against my breasts, kissing his way down my stomach and over my hip bones until he reached the apex of my thighs. His large hands easily parted them, and he planted the softest of kisses over my heat.
“And what about here, Grace?” He dragged a finger right down the center of me, but the touch was too light, too soft. “Is this where you’re aching for me the most?”
“Yes.” I arched upward, dying for more contact. “Yes, yes, yes,” I said, breathless.
“Tell me how bad you need my cock,” he demanded, continuing with his too-light teasing, winding me up to the point I was certain I’d snap at any moment.
He’d completely owned me from the minute he appeared in my life—my happiness, my pleasure. He’d taken responsibility for my heart the second his lips had met mine. And I knew I didn’t have much time left, I knew my world had completely changed since meeting him, and I didn’t care. I didn’t care about the attacks or the voices or the fact that he was a vampire. All I cared about was him and spending every last second I had on this earth withhim.
I glanced down at him, the sight of this infinitely powerful male between my thighs enough to make my stomach flip. “I’ve never neededanyoneas badly as I need you, Ajax.”
Something flickered in his dark gaze, an emotion that stole my breath as the playful smirk faded and was replaced with something I couldn’t exactly describe. And I didn’t need to, not when the chemistry between us was electric and building like a current.
Ajax slipped his hands beneath my ass, hauling me upward toward his mouth. I was completely bare before him, sprawled beneath him on his bed like his own personal feast—
He dipped his head between my thighs, still holding my ass a few inches off the bed, and licked through the heat of me.
I gasped, the sensation like lightning crackling up my spine.
And he did it again.
And again.
