Because I would always find him, in every life after this, I would find him, and he would find me.

His claws retreated, his calloused fingers trailed under my shirt, moving toward my mound, and then he dipped between my legs.

The way his fingers moved over me, teased past my clit, and slid inside me made me shiver. My body spiked with need, this need only he could sate.

Another digit added, and I moaned in pleasure, welcoming the stretch, but I wanted more.

“Please, Isaac. Don’t let me wait,” I breathed.

“I’m only warming you up, little bird. I don’t want to hurt you.”

The palm of his hand pressed on my clit as he pumped his fingers. My grip on his shoulder tightened, desperate to rip the clothes from his skin, wanting to feel everything.

“Hurt me,” I begged.

He stilled. Turmoil showed in his lust filled gaze. Everything that was going on in his head made him fear I couldn’t take all he had to give, not anymore.

But I wanted it. He knew that. He just needed to be reminded that even though I fell in love with his caring side, his harshness, and darkness made me stay—what made me truly love him.

The warmth of his body left me as he placed me back on my feet, but the hunger in his eyes made my skin prickle. Peeling the clothes from my body until I stood bare before him, just as the first time he fucked me against a tree.

It was kind of poetic, our love started in a forest, and now our new beginning, our intertwined souls, would begin here too. Even though we had tried it before, this was so different. This wasn’t because of a heat, this was me asking for it fully.

“All yours,” I whispered as his eyes drifted, drinking me in.

The sun exposed his best features, lighting up his wide shoulders and sharp jaw while I shamelessly peeked down.God, I missed him, all of him.

He tried to hide it, again. Blinking away the pain in his eyes, but before it truly faded, he met mine. Showing me it all as he opened the bond further between us.

I gasped, almost drowning in his emotions. Telling me how much he wanted and craved to have me.

Turning around as I held onto the tree. I curved my back, listening to him edging closer until he pressed his hand on the hollow of my back, forcing me to arch further and then trailed up until his fingers raked through my hair, holding me in place.

“So beautiful,” he murmured, coating his dick with the slickness between my folds.

Leaning his body over mine, his lips inches from my ear. And as his warm breath made goosebumps rise, he slid inside me.

I whimpered as he pushed to the limit, but I welcomed the pain, feeling it quickly morph into pleasure.

His pace started slow and deep as his lips trailed over my exposed neck, searching for the spot that would wear his mark.

My walls quivered around his cock when his thrust changed. Every move became harder until they turned into animalistic pounds. Taking me as the monster he was.

My moans silenced, riding on the edge of this high. Heat coiled inside me, ready to burst and free all that was hidden.

Piercing pain radiated from my neck as his canines punctured my skin, pushing through until they hit bone.

A scream left me, my orgasm crashed through me, and fire engulfed us in a single heartbeat as our souls intertwined. Fiber for fiber, they wrapped together until they couldn’t be parted.

My eyes snapped open, and a fiery orange hue danced around us and was joined by this sharp icy blue. Both moving as one.

“Fuck,” I moaned as Isaac retreated his canines, sealing the wound he created with his tongue.

The tingles that came with the bond between us sharpened, leaving me breathless and my mind expanded—filling with Isaac’s thoughts and words.

“My little bird,”his soothing voice echoed in my mind, and I welcomed it fully. This was different from the short bonds he created in our plays; this was eternal.
