“Wake me before dawn,” I murmur and slip under.

CHAPTER42

VHEX

Iris passesout on my cock.

Azrid keeps flicking his tongues. Her sleepy pussy tightens and rolls a few more times, milking me fucking dry.

“Fuck, baby.” I curl around her and bury my face in her soft shoulder.

Her silks never let go.

Why should I?

Still alive. Still mine.

I want to watch her face while she sleeps.

I lift her enough to spin her around, then slide Iris back down on my cock, popping its buttons to keep her pinned in her seat.

She makes a sleepy moan and sinks into me, hugging my ribs.

Kind of burrowing.

I feel her seeking my heat, all her defenses down.

Her soul shimmers this perfect, mermaid blue.

Pure and so fucking strong.

I hug her tight and breathe her scent.

Thanks to her, my head is crystal fucking clear.

I remember I have business to handle.

When her breathing steadies, slow and deep, I glare at the vampire. He’s still watching her from his knees.

Azrid kisses her thigh on his way out. After his freaky face tentacles tuck their shit away, he runs his real tongue around his mouth hole.

His eyes are too glassy, and his mental chuckle sounds giddy as hell.

The bat is tripping balls on my venom.

I should be more pissed, butIris.

Even sleeping all cute with her forehead tucked against my throat, her sweet-mint soul chills my silks right the fuck out.

I want to sleep inside her, feel her moving, feel her feelings and her beating heart.

Like we’re one soul, not two.

Azrid asks.

My claws burn, but I stop their tips from sharpening. Iris is resting on my lap.
