“Shhhh, you’re okay, baby girl,” he soothed, reaching up to firmly grip my nape. “It’s just your fangs coming in.”

My gums continued to burn as the fangs slowly descended, invading my mouth and poking into my bottom lip. No sooner were they in than a new pain distracted me, my throat on fire with a terrible thirst.

“Everett,” I repeated, the word warbled from my new set of chompers.

“Noah, I suggest you leave before my mate decides to make you her first meal,” he calmly said. His grip on me tightened, as if to prevent me from doing just that.

“Got it,” Noah replied, slowly backing toward the stairs. “Glad to see she’s, uh, feeling better. I’ll just go outside and keep a lookout while you two do vampire stuff.”

When he started up the stairs, the new instincts flooding my body went haywire. I blindly lunged after him, but Everett didn’t let me get far. He caught me about the waist, his powerful arms locking me in place while I growled and hissed my displeasure. The need for blood was all-consuming, and I fought like a wild cat to break loose.

When he refused to let me go, I raked my nails down his arms—or, rather,claws. I had claws now. Black, wickedly sharp weapons.

They tore into his skin, leaving long blood trails in their wake. Seconds after I broke the skin, it quickly healed, which drove me into a frenzy. I went for a different tactic, testing to see if I still possessed magic. When I managed to light up my hands like balls of starlight, Everett decided he’d had enough.

With a growl, he threw me onto the bed. I bounced and almost fell off, but he pinned my body to the mattress with his and wrestled my arms above my head. I snapped at him with my new set of fangs, but he only chuckled and darkly said, “Is that all you’ve got, baby girl? I know you can do better than that. Here. Take out your blood rage on me. Daddy can handle it.”

I strained against his hold with a feral growl. He growled back, his eyes bleeding red. Mine were probably equally red, but I didn’t care. All I cared about wasfeeding. So when he let go of my arms, I swiftly grabbed his head and yanked it back to expose his throat. The moment I saw the throbbing vein in his neck, I lost all control.

I struck, burying my fangs deep into his neck. He shuddered against me with a groan, pulling me closer instead of shoving me away. His euphoria blasted through me, confirming that he’dwantedme to bite him. Spurred on by his pleasure, I took my first pull. My firsttaste. As his blood flooded my tastebuds, I moaned like a hussy and greedily gulped it down. It immediately soothed my raw throat and warmed my insides, spreading through my veins like molten chocolate.

Spirits alive, Everett, I sighed through our bond and took another pull.I’m addicted already.

He faintly hummed in reply, clearly enthralled with whatever I was doing to him. Wanting him to feel even better, I focused on giving him my venom. When he released another shuddering groan, I knew I’d been successful.

As our mutual pleasure built, he hiked up my dress and started rubbing me through my underwear. I bucked against his fingers with a breathless whimper, beyond sensitive to his touch. He wasn’t even touching my bare skin, and I was already buzzing like a livewire. Sensing how close I already was to coming, he nudged aside mypanties and touched my clit. My back arched off the bed, delicious ecstasy whipping through me.

All it took was a few expert flicks of his fingers. He slid two of them through my wetness, then returned them to my clit, rubbing the sensitive nub until stars burst behind my eyelids. Stiffening all over, I screamed against his neck, my fangs still deep inside him as I orgasmed.

“Greedy little thing,” he rumbled out loud, clearly pleased by my obsession with his blood. “Take your time. I’m not going anywhere.”

Warmth bloomed in my chest. Warmth that had nothing to do with his blood.

Needing to be closer to him, to experience the oneness I so desperately craved, I reached between us and cupped his manhood.I want you inside me, Everett.

His cock swelled beneath my touch. “We might break the bed if I do that.”

I smiled against his neck. “That’s okay. I don’t plan to come back to this place after tonight anyway.”

“Fair point,” he grunted out, clearly struggling to focus while I slowly massaged him through his pants.

Eager for more, I swiftly undid his belt and tugged down his pants, allowing the throbbing erection to spring free. A long sigh shuddered from him when I wrapped my hand around the shaft and squeezed.

You know, I thoughtfully said, continuing to stroke him.This will be my first time as a vampire. That means you’ll essentially be popping my vampire cherry.

“God, I love how innocentlynaughtythat sounds,” he groaned.

Pleased by his response, I rewarded him by slicing off my panties with my new claws and positioning him at my entrance. Finallywithdrawing my fangs from his neck, I met his eyes and murmured, “Don’t be gentle with me, my prince. I want the full vampire experience.”

A devilish grin curved his mouth. “Your wish is my command, my lady.”

With one smooth motion, he thrust inside me to the hilt. My walls immediately clenched around him, happy to be reunited with him once more. He filled me up perfectly, his body meant for mine. It was magical the way we seamlessly fit together, like two halves destined to become a whole.

He was meant for me, and I was meant for him.

Which meant that he was mine and I was his.

At the realization, I sucked in a breath.
