Twining my arms around his neck, I suggested, “This might sound wildly irresponsible, but how about we forget about all this serious stuff while we distract ourselves the very best way possible? In your bed.”
“I think my mate is as smart as she’s gorgeous.” He stood with me cradled in his arms and carried me into his room, where he set me on the bed.
The mattress was more comfortable than anything I’d ever lain on. I briefly wondered if The Abyss put some sort of fluffiness spell on it.
Adan crashed on top of me, his breath tickling my neck as his kisses trailed down to my collarbone. “What’s going on in that beautiful head of yours?”
“Hmm?”
“You stopped moving and did this little snort that sounded like an almost giggle.”
I was unable to hold back my giggle. “I was just wondering what kind of magic you used to make this bed so plush.”
“That’s nothing.” His fingers trailed down my neck to my hip, brushing the exposed skin where my shirt had ridden up. “Do you want to see something better I can do with my magic?”
He bent over me and placed the lightest kiss against my bare skin. I shivered as I watched his blue eyes darken with black swirls, heat flooding between my legs in anticipation.
“Uh-huh,” I breathed.
“My kind call it a phantom touch,” he explained, running just the tips of his fingers down my side.
“Like a ghost thing?”
His deep chuckle sent a sensual shiver down my spine. “Maybe I should just show you.”
“Please.”
A pulsing throb started low in my core, like a vibrator set to the lowest setting—except nothing was actually touching me.
“Whoa,” I gasped.
His grin was wicked. “More?”
“Yes,” I panted.
With his gaze locked on mine, the pressure picked up in my core until I was gasping and pushing my hips forward as if I could somehow deepen his phantom touch.
“Does my good girl need more?” The vibrations grew stronger inside me, and I couldn’t hold back the moan, gripping the sheets as I came hard, my arousal soaking my panties with him barely touching me. At least not physically.
“Wow, that was amazing.”
“I would happily spend the rest of my very long life watching you come for me.” I briefly considered asking him how many years demons lived, but then my ability to think clearly was wiped away when he asked, “Do you want more? See where else I can touch you?”
“Yes, please,” I begged, squirming as I clenched the sheets in my fists.
He undid my jeans, and the pulse between my legs heightened. Every part of me was on fire, no matter where Adan used his phantom touch. Every new sensation had me prickling with goose bumps. I couldn’t get enough of it.
I reached forward to grab him, but then immediately fell back to the bed as if I were tied down.
He laughed, shaking his head. “Not yet, baby. Let me take care of you first.”
“Is this another way you can use that phantom touch?” I demanded.
“Maybe,” he said, grinning as the pulse quickened between my thighs before he stripped my jeans and panties from my body and drove his tongue inside me.
The combination of a ripple of sensation and his flattened tongue had me coming so hard I felt stars prick my vision and flow through my body.
Then another sensation started low, warm. Going from my core to my butt.
