Pure heat.
I come on his ridges, grinding against shadows, harmlessly kicking Remy while he pets and sucks my thigh.
My head is steaming mush.
“More,” Vhex murmurs, licking his bite. He rocks his hips to change the angle, mentally broadcasting his plan to fuck all night.
“Enough.Enough.” I grab the chair arms and hold on to whatever thin shred is left of my life. “We have a battle tomorrow.”
Maybe a whole war.
At bare minimum, I need to be able to stand without my knees collapsing.
Remy laughs and licks his bite. His saliva tingles, beginning to heal the double-barreled wound.
“You okay?” I ask and rub his hair.
“Divine.” Remy smacks his lips.
So, he’snotokay.
Neither am I.
“Vhex?” I ask.
He nuzzles in the crook of my shoulder. His emotions pulse, low and deep.
“You’re alive,” he says in a rough whisper.
“So are you.” I pat him, trying to hide the shake in my heart. “Let’s stay that way.”
“If you’re alive, I can live,” Vhex murmurs as he covers my neck in flaming kisses. His silks match the energy of his lips, brushing all over my soul. “You’re the only one who can survive me.”
A hot whisper of hellfire flows down my spine.
What about me?
Can I survivethem?
My fingers tighten in Remy’s hair.
Remyhmmsagainst my groin. He unseals his mouth, then tilts his head to find me. When our gazes meet, I almost come again, trembling. His eyes blaze bright red, lit with the same obsessive sparkle that burns in his soul.
“Follicular phase.” Remy licks his lips slowly, savoring my taste. “Your cycle is accelerating. Are you in such a rush to ovulate for me?”
I shudder.
Remy’s shadows pet my lips, dragging out one last soft, lingering orgasm.
The pleasure drains what’s left of my energy.
I sag against Vhex, struggling to keep my eyes open. It’s hard work playing alchemist, turning venom into blood, blood into orgasms, and full-on feral Sentinels into functioning men.
Men who are feral for me.
Stars. I need sleep.
I’m so relaxed, so drained, my eyelids won’t stay open.
