His tongue swirled around my clit. He’d memorized all the spots that drove me wild. The orange glow grew bigger. Warmer. I cried out, on the brink of breaking into a million pieces.

Aarix picked up his head and breathed fire. I expected the cute little cabin to ignite like a tinder box, but it didn’t. We were in our own little world where human rules didn’t apply.

He took my clit between his talons, a simple move that made me see stars.

“Yes,” he said. “Let go. Let it all go.”

I didn’t have any other choice. He slipped those jeweled talons inside me, and power surged through me. My body wasn’t my own, it was magic and fury. Sensation and hope.

He pulled me off the bed. Normally, after an orgasm, my bones would’ve been the consistency of overcooked spaghetti, but I felt amazing. Like I could climb to the top of the mountains that surrounded us. Break inside and free those prisoners.

And Aarix had even more power. He easily lifted me with one hand, and used the other to give his cock a rough pump.

Slowly, he lowered me down, inch by inch. We were face-to-face, enveloped in this ethereal orange glow. I rested my dewy forehead against his. I’d never forgotten how good he felt inside me. But this time, as he lifted me, everything was different.

I screamed. I needed to tell him what was happening, but I didn’t have words. My skin felt like it was peeling away, replaced by that orange glow. He thrust harder, faster, like he was losing control.

Until the person—the wolf—I was no longer existed anymore.

His balls hitched, and his shaft swelled. My body trapped him inside me, and the entire world exploded.

Aarix

Calista’s body bucked as it prepared for its second climax. I’d always loved this moment when I made her lose control, but in those caverns, I had to be gentle with her. There was no way I could have brought her fully into her power. She would’ve been held prisoner too, and her fate would’ve been so much worse than mine.

She wasn’t a wolf, she wasn’t a dragon. She was all power, and she was all mine.

The orange glow consumed her, and her scream echoed much further than the walls of our cabin. It resonated through the mountain range, a rallying cry for those yearning to be free.

No longer would any coward think they could drop threats and cast spells over her.

“That’s it,” I coaxed her to go further, to give up control to gain her power. Truth be told, I wasn’t sure what was on the other side of this. Electricity intertwined with the oxygen in the room, making us both stronger. “You’re so beautiful like this. So powerful.”

A blanket of cold crimson fire covered her skin. She cried out, and I held her, telling her over and over again it would be okay.

I had no idea if it would be. But Calista couldn’t go on feeling like she didn’t belong anywhere. Like she broke everything she touched. We’d learn how to play with this fire. We’d make it ours.

The flames tamped down, and she slumped against my shoulder, taking deep breaths like she’d gone without. Her hair was damp, her skin was covered with a fine golden soot, and red-golden scales that flowed down the length of her spine.

She grasped my arm and then pulled away from me.

I kissed her forehead. “How are you feeling?”

“Amazing.” She blinked rapidly, like she was coming back from a dream. “And really...weird. What happened?”

“You were absolutely divine.” I was just as overwhelmed as she was. In my endless life, I’d never felt such a strong emotion for another being before. “Let’s get you cleaned up.”

Gently, I lifted her from the bed. Her body was heavy, like she’d just woken from a long slumber.

Her lips curled into a smile. “You didn’t answer my question.”

“Call your fire,” I instructed.

She gave me a quizzical look. “I don’t have fire, Aarix.”
