Not understanding what he wants, I try to open my mouth wider, thinking there must be a deeper way to kiss.

But this seems to only frustrate him.

His tongue lashes at mine and he sends another growl down my throat.“Let me in.”

Wanting to please him as much as he’s pleasing me, I allow myself to give into the compulsion without a second thought.

As if I’ve always known to what to do, known how to accept him, I open a space inside me that’s always been closed.

My ribs immediately begin to throb in rhythm with my heart, and heat fills me, pooling between my thighs.

“Yes,” he groans into my mouth with so much pleasure I can’t stop myself from squirming on his lap. “That’s it, my stars. Mylove. Show me your beautiful heart.”

His pleasure feeding my pleasure, I press closer and thrust my tongue hard against his tongue.

I wantmore.

So much more.

I didn’t even know such good feelings were even possible.

This is like an entirely new world.

A new world I want to live in forever.

My blood.

Raphael suddenly rips himself away from me with a stricken look.

Not ready to end this new experience, my body pulsing and thrumming, I pant, “Why did you stop?”

Alena tastes sweet and innocent as I hungrily devour her mouth. Whatever is tainting her blood is buried beneath her skin, giving me full rein to enjoy her as I please.

As Asher said, she won’t be tainted forever.

This truth only makes me kiss her harder, wanting to be even closer to her.

Aching to be whole.

And thanks to her letting me inside her, completing one side of our bond, I know she’s enjoying this moment as much as I am.

All my vampire senses are focused on her and only her. Her taste. The way her tongue moves, inexperienced but eager.

Eager forme.

She smashes her breasts against my chest, and I delight in her hard nipples pressing into my shirt.

Delight in the throbbing desire pooling between her thighs.

And her arousal scenting the air around us…
