‘No need to sing his praises too loudly.’

I walked carefully in the dark, trying to figure out where I was. The self-created cover of darkness made it harder for him to find me, but it also made it harder for me to keep away from the truly dangerous plants that called this place home.

‘He’s close by.’

‘Where?’

Mocking laughter teased the air before a hot body slammed into me, causing me to tumble to the rocky path. Instinct took over. I fought hard, attempting to buck him off, but he easily pinned me to the ground with a derisive snort.

‘Right there.’

‘So helpful. Thanks.’

“You like being hunted?” Echo rasped as his fingers slipped between my legs. An aroused whimper trembled out of me as he easily sank two fingers inside. There was no denying the new gush of wetness as he finger fucked me. “Fuck yes, you do. So damn twisted.”

“Are you complaining?” I snarked, attempting to clench my legs together. It took little effort on his part to keep me from succeeding.

“You certainly aren’t,” he said, withdrawing his fingers from me. My mouth opened to snap back with some kind of comeback, but the sound turned into an outraged cry when Echo clamped a hand over my mouth. “You talk too much, Isla. Normally, I like listening to the sound of your voice, but unless you’re screaming, I’m not interested right now.”

Echo reached behind himself then moved his hand, immediately replacing the warmth of his flesh with cold tape.Where the hell had he found that?!My muffled protests were ignored as he pressed on a third strip of tape harder than he needed to.

Bastard.

As Echo tossed the tape aside, I used the second of inattention to try to get up, but it was no use. He was ready for me. His hard grip used my hair to yank my body to a stop. I slammed into the ground again with no cushion and absolutely no care in his gaze.

Tears stung my eyes, but I refused to just give in, digging my fingers into the ground to try to get away. My magick thrummedalong the surface of my skin, but I didn’t want to actually hurt Echo. There were too many plants here that could permanently maim or kill him. I had to keep my powers in check.

“You can crawl for me another time, Isla.”

Crawl?!

Anger flared, but it was gone a second later when he gripped my waist with one hand and pushed my face into the ground with the other. He slammed into my pussy, making me try to scream, and my eyes rolled back as I spasmed around his cock.

Echo pounded into me like his dick was a weapon. He was an incubus on a mission, his magick filling the air around us until every inch of my skin was extremely sensitive.

The hand on the back of my head shifted, using a fistful of my hair to pull me up. Echo was a lot stronger than I thought he was, and he easily manhandled me. With my back arched, my breasts bounced hard with every thrust.

“You’re going to let me in, witch,” he rasped, the hint of steel clear in his voice making me shiver. “If you don’t, I’ll fucking edge you until Ibreakthat twisted mind of yours. Give. In.”

The only response I could give him was a moan.

“Are you imagining I’m someone else, Isla? Maybe that professor I saw you kissing?” he asked darkly, his fingers roughly playing along my clit.

I tried to shake my head, but his question made me imagine adding a third into the mix. Red and orange eyes would watch us closely as he leaned against the plant-covered wall. I could imagine him slowly pumping himself. Fuck, the idea of us putting on a show for him was arousing as hell.

Echo bit down on my neck where my throat met my collarbone. My entire body tensed at the pain, but there was no denying the way my body jerked in his firm hold.

“You’re thinking of him here, aren’t you?” he murmured against my skin. “Too bad he isn’t here to see how I’m going tofuck you until the only name on the tip of your tongue will be mine. It will bedaysuntil you don’t feel me against you, inside of you. I don’t care if he’s a fae. He isn’t an incubus, and he’ll never be me. Let him claim your lips because I’m claiming every other fucking inch of you.”

Echo yanked himself out of me and spun me around so we faced each other. A completely feral man stared back at me, his eyes wild and cheeks flushed. He maneuvered me to straddle him, holding his cock at my entrance and pushing me down until my ass rested on his lap.

He sucked a nipple into his mouth as he guided my hips, urging me to ride him while he played with me. His other hand came up, ripping the tape off.

“Echo!”

“Fuck, I love the way you say my name,” he ground out against my breast. “Use that mind of yours. Tell me your fantasies, Isla. Every dirty detail. Hold nothing back. Only then will I make you come.”

I forced myself to look down at him. His pupils were so wide his eyes looked almost black, though maybe that was his full incubus taking over. After this, I was making it a priority to find out more about incubi because Echo was right, I’d never be able to forget him after this.
