I stand before a waterfall, cascading down off the mountain top like a shimmering curtain of crystal-clear water. The mist from the falls carries through the air, making my face feel dewy with the humidity, both refreshing and invigorating. The hell flame catches the droplets as they fall, creating a rainbow of light across the ground. It’s absolutely beautiful…
“It’s rumored that Aphrodite herself made it along with Hecate, the first Hell-born witch,” Kai says, watching me intently, as if he’s drinking in my every reaction.
Moving closer, I peer down into the water, seeing straight to the bottom, which is coated in crystals I’ve come to know well. Fertility stones. They sparkle and glint in the light, each one a different size and shape. I reach out to touch the water, wondering if it shares the stone’s properties, but nothing happens beyond it feeling cool against my skin.
“Are those–” I start to ask, but he crouches down, sitting near the water’s edge.
“Yes. Touching the water won’t have nearly as much of an effect as touching the stones in the bottom would, but this place is blessed.”
Bubbles rise from the cracks of the crystals in the bottom, like a jacuzzi tub, and I can’t help but be mesmerized by the beauty of it all. Fabric hits me in the face and I gasp, my hand peeling it off to find what remains of his shirt.
Lifting my eyes, I quickly dart them away. The man is not bashful in the least. He sticks his toe into the water, testing it before jumping in and sending a tidal wave of water rushing up over the steep drop on the shoreline and soaking my pants.
“I thought you said it’s…” My words cut off as something stirs in my middle, sending liquid heat coursing through me. I squint at him, silently protesting as a smirk morphs his lips into a grin so sin-worthy… so mischievous that my heart skips a beat. “Asshole,” I mumble.
“I’m not going to disagree with you, but I also know you like it.” He slides closer toward where I sit on the coast, and the stirring in my stomach grows stronger. “You disagree?”
“I said no such thing. I just decided not to answer,” I say, letting my fingers glide through the water and admiring the way they shine.
“Fine then… I can give an example if you’d like.” He swims closer, waving to me to come join him. With a huff, I start untying my boots and Kai swims up to the blunt cliff edge to help. I feel the veins in my eyes surge to the surface, and my fingers falter for a moment until I shove it down.
“You’re touching the bottom,” I groan and he swims deeper, holding his hands up in surrender.
With my boots and socks off, I stand to quickly shrug off my shirt and shimmy my now wet pants down my legs, and Kai whistles, shooting me a wicked grin. I dip my toe in the water, and a shiver races up my spine.
“What’s your example?” I ask, forcing myself off the edge and swimming toward him. Once within arm’s reach, Kai plucks me out of the water and drags my body toward him. After a moment, we find buoyancy and he leans to place sweet kisses along my pulse.
“You know I love you and will worship the ground you walk on. Yet, because I’m an asshole, I’m more than capable of fucking you like I hate you. I think deep down, there’s a part of you who even craves it… The bliss that comes with letting me do as I want.”
“Oh…” My mouth parts, and suddenly I can’t form any other word. He’s right. He might drive me mad someday, but he can make me feel so loved… And when he touches me, my body has never come more alive. I might want to be strong in every other aspect of life, but in bed, I love it when he takes control and takes what he wants. I’ve never felt more desired than when he loses control.
He trails a finger down the length of my neck as my eyes flutter closed, enjoying the way my body sparks to life. “Am I right?” he asks, his voice nothing but a whisper now.
When I open my eyes, I find him watching me and my core tightens at the sight of his amber pools of liquid honey… so sweet yet so damning that you can’t say no. They’re hypnotic, or maybe enchanting is a better word, but more importantly, they can make my heart stop with one glance like a hairpin trigger.
“Use your words, Alice.” My stomach explodes with butterflies.
I squint, trying to grasp onto what’s left of my dignity… of my resolve. “I’m not a toddler.”
“Never said you were, but I do think your brain short circuits when you’re horny, and I’m happy to be the one to trip your fuse.”
“You’re cocky and arrogant.”
“And you’restarved.”His hand floats down my middle until his fingers coast down the sensitive skin of my thigh. “Tell me I’m wrong.”
“Very.”
“Then tell me to stop.” His hand inches toward my center, so deliciously close, yet so far away.
I stare at him, not saying a word as two fingers slip between my folds. Head tips into his chest, and he swims forward, holding on to the ledge of the shore. Crystals line the walled surface, skimming over my shoulder blades and back. The contact pulls a strangled groan from Kai and he leans his forehead against my shoulder to keep from sinking.
“Wrap your legs around me,” he whispers, and I catch a glimpse of his teeth biting into his lower lip as his free hand explores my body. I do as he asks, swiveling my hips to rock my center against his rigid length. His hand squeezes between us, so his thumb and circle my clit.
Kai leans closer, biting into the swell of my breast with a growl. I gasp, jolting against the stones, but his tip presses into me, smothering out all thought beyond wanting him deeper. When he lets go, small impressions remain, like he’s marked me as his and a small part of me wants him to do it again.
“You drive me positively mad, Alice,” he says between kisses. His hips slam forward and he drives deep into me, filling me up only to empty me a second later, teasing my entrance.
Kai captures a nipple, sucking hard before letting it go with a pop, and I audibly groan. My hands grip into the earthy edge beneath the water for support, and his lips collide with mine, kissing me so deeply… so passionately that I see stars. His lips are soft, even as he claims me, mind, body, and soul, and I’ll never get enough.
