“The way I treated you when I was not myself. I remember everything, but at that time, it was like I wasn’t in control.”

“I know that. Why do you think I didn’t give up on you?”

He erased the three steps between us. “Thank you, sweetheart.”

I forced a big gasp. “Levi is thanking again. What in the world?”

One corner of his lips curled up. “I mean it.”

I reached up and placed my hand over his chest, right above his heart. “I know. What I don’t know is if you meant what you said right before you crossed that portal and left me alone at that inn.”

He stared into my eyes, and I thought he didn’t remember. But after a few agonizing seconds, he placed his hand over mine and said, “I meant it, sweetheart. This bond might have started with a spell, but I don’t want it gone.” With a growl, he pushed me back until I was caged between him and the door. He glued his body to mine and I sighed in satisfaction. “I want you now and forever.”

Then his lips were on mine.

I was prepared for his hunger, for this kiss to be as crazed as the other times we had kissed, but instead, Levi molded his lips around mine and oh, so slowly, kissed me with something I could only think of as adoration, devotion. His mouth moved slow, and I matched his strides, but it was deep, as if he wanted to suck my soul into his. To imprint his lips on mine.

And I was all for that.

Heat bloomed in my chest and spread down to my belly as he pressed his body on mine, touching every possible inch. His delicious mouth, his hot hard figure pressing against mine, and his hard-on strategically placed low on my pelvis.

I moaned.

With a smirk, Levi broke the kiss and dragged his lips down my neck. “So sweet,” he whispered before biting the sensitive spot between my neck and shoulder.

I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, grazing my nails across his shoulder blades. By the light, how I wanted that shirt off. All of this clothes off.

I tugged on his shirt. “Off. Now.”

A soft chuckle came from him, but he didn’t hesitate. He stood tall, his body still pressed against mine, and with his intense eyes on mine, he pulled his shirt off.

“Your turn,” he said with a growl as he grabbed the hem of my shirt and practically ripped it off me.

Without breaking his stare, he reached behind me, unclasped my bra, and let it fall. Only then, he looked down and licked his lips, before returning his mouth to mine.

His kiss was once again slow and deep, drawing little gasps and moans from my throat. He wrapped his strong arms around me, pulling me even closer to him, squeezing my breasts to his naked chest. By the light, how I loved to feel his skin on mine.

On instinct, I wrapped my legs around him and then Levi was on the move.

He gently deposited me in bed but stood back to take my pants and underwear off. Then his. I squirmed, watching his glorious form, all corded muscle and a huge hard-on … I swallowed as he crawled over me, his gaze again locked on mine, shining with pure hunger.

Hunger for me.

Levi pressed his body down on me—oh, I loved his weight on me—and claimed my mouth once more. I wrapped my legs around him and pushed my heels on his round ass, placing his hips in line with mine, his length right at my entrance.

I exhaled a moan, in desperate need for him.

But Levi had another idea.

Still kissing me slowly, he lifted his body off mine and slid his hand between us. I gasped as his fingers rubbed at my clit and two of them slipped inside of me.

I cried against his mouth.

“Holy fuck, so wet,” he whispered before deepening the kiss, if that was possible, and thrusting his fingers all the way inside me.

Heat already burned inside me, bringing in pure pleasure and lighting me on fire, but then he rubbed his thumb on my clit while moving his fingers in an agonizing rhythm.

I moaned and he swallowed it.
