Page 68 of Haunted Nightmares

“Fucking hell,” I gasp as the wind is knocked from my lungs. “What the bloody fuck just?—”

“I told you,” Zephyr says as she quickly straddles my hips and places her hands in the middle of my chest. “That kind of crap isn’t happening on my watch. Not unless there's a good reason for it.”

I frown, making note of how my sight is back to normal, and confusion is now a state of existence for me. “What crap? I’m not following you, love, and not just because I wanted to eat you.”

“Hunter mode, whatever happens when you check out.”

“Pardon?”

“What just happened, tracking my blood or whatever.” My mate sighs as she absentmindedly traces the darkness from my sternum out over my pecs. “I don’t know what to call it but I could feel the change in you, and I’m not going to let that happen.”

I lift a brow as I hesitantly place my hands on her thighs. “Is that so?”

Zephyr nods as she leans down toward me, an absolutely blinding smile gracing her lips as she brushes them against mine. “I’m taking a page from your book and if you’re hellbent oneatingme…” She kisses me slowly, sucking on my lower lip and releasing it with a pop. “You’re either feeding while we mate,or sticking your head between my legs so you can devour my pussy.”

“Zephyr,” I growl into her mouth as she kisses me again and again, my cock instantly hard and poking my mate’s ass. “Such a filthy mouth on you.”

“The good kind of filth.”

Dragging her nails down my chest, my gentle breeze sits up, grinning down at me before she pulls her dress above her head. I groan as I watch her toss it, her perfect breasts now free and almost every inch of her body exposed to me.

She was naked before, completely naked when I took her at Lorna’s but this is different. It’s consensual for one, no question of willingness to participate in this. But also, I’m not crazed with anger, I’m not unsure if this is my gentle breeze. I’m about as coherent as I get these days and this gorgeous creature is making sure I stay that way, all while looking at me as if she?—

“I do, Wraith.” Zephyr smiles as she goes up on her knees and proceeds to tear the sides of her panties in order to remove them. “I love you more than anything in the world and that has never changed. Not in our past life.” She reaches between her thighs and wraps her hand around my cock, stroking me slowly, tightening her grip a little more with each one. “Not in death.” I groan as my eyes drop to where my mate lines the leaking tip with her entrance, positioning me exactly where I want to be but she waits until I look up at her again. “And it won’t change in this life. No matter what happens, I will love you with everything I am until this wretched sphere stops spinning.”

I smile as Zephyr throws what I said to her back at me, rubbing my palms over her thighs and believing her with all of me. “I think that may be the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard.” She rolls her eyes but the smile hasn’t left her face once. “And for what it’s worth, coming from a madman about to mate his fated one, I love you, my gentle breeze. More than… good gods, love.”

My words turn into a drawn out groan as my mate begins lowering herself onto me, slowly taking every aching inch of my cock into her dripping core.

“Oh, oh honey,” Zephyr hisses as her ass goes flush against my hips. “Gods, I’m so full.”

And I’m going to last all of three seconds because this is different from what we did the other night, and I’ve not even jerked my knob since my mate left me. I was too angry to pay attention before, and we weren’t mating. Right now, it’s beyond different.

The way her body moves is a thing of beauty, the gentle sway of her breasts as Zephyr starts to slide her cunt up and down my cock. How her throat bobs as she tilts her head back with a soft gasp, my mate’s silky hair brushing the tops of my knees while she moans. I watch each of her movements, relish in the way her skin breaks out into goosebumps as I slide my hands up her sides to cup her breasts, Zephyr’s nipples as they pucker beneath my touch. And fuck, the way her pussy clamps down on me when I trace a path to the apex of her thighs, when my thumb finds her clit and rubs in time with the rhythm to which she’s fucking me.

“Wraith,” my mate whimpers as she jerks forward, her palm landing firmly in the center of my chest. “Shit, honey, I’m not going to last very long. This… fuck, this feels so good.”

Thank everything holy we are on the same page.

She’s not wrong, either.

My gentle breeze is on the money with that because this does in fact feel so good.

Her slick, wet, heat surrounding me. Every pillowy ridge of her cunt as she moves faster, as she rides my cock harder. How I can practically feel her womb every time Zephyr bears down, bottoming out and bringing me closer to the edge.

Which means it’s time to act.

I plant my feet as firmly as I can and lift my hips high, my mate crying out some sort of gibberish from the depth it creates before she’s almost thrust off of me completely, but I don’t let that happen. I grip her hips and slam them back, burying myself and holding there as her breasts briefly end up in my face. And I take full advantage. Flicking her nipple with my tongue, flattening it before repeating. I suck it between my lips then give it a nip, only stopping when my gentle breeze’s fingers dive into my hair, gives it a tug then crushes her lips to mine.

“Honey, please.”

“I do love it when you beg.” I grin against her lips, scooting around a bit before angling my head to give her my neck. “More of that later, after you’re mine.”

The second her fangs break my skin, Zephyr’s pussy goes vice-like, strangling my erection as she gushes around it. My mate moves faster with each pull of my vein, bouncing on my cock in time with her feeding.

“Christ,” I groan as my eyes slide shut, my balls tightening to the point of pain. “Zephyr, my love, if you want this to—” I don’t get to finish because my mate shoves her forearm in my face, lining her wrist up with my mouth, and I waste no time.

My fangs are buried in her flesh in an instant, and I’m drinking my fill before the chanting has time to begin.
