I let go of her hands and place my hands on her hips again, lowering my mouth to her pussy.
She moans in mortification as I flick my tongue out and taste her.
“Fuck,” I groan. “Adelaide.”
“Jesus,” she mutters, hands over her face. “This is…” She throws her head back as my tongue presses down on her clit.
Her hands go into my hair, and I feast on her hungrily, lapping up the blood pooling in her pussy, glad I caught her before she staunched the flow with the tampon that lies uselessly on the floor next to us.
Adelaide gasps as my tongue delves deeper, exploring every inch of her perfect pussy. Her fingers tighten in my hair, holding me against her as her hips begin to rock. The taste of her blood mixed with her arousal is irresistible, driving me wild with need.
“Corvus,” she moans, her voice breathy and desperate. “Oh god...”
I growl against her, the vibrations making her shudder. My hands grip her arse, pulling her closer as I devour her. Her scent surrounds me, filling my senses until there’s nothing but Adelaide.
Her legs start to tremble as I focus on her clit, circling it with my tongue before sucking gently. Adelaide cries out, her back arching as she grinds against my face.
“Don’t stop,” she pants. “Please don’t stop.”
I have no intention of stopping. Not when she tastes this divine, not when her pleasure is building so beautifully.
Adelaide’s moans grow louder, more desperate. Her hips move erratically as she begs for her climax. I can feel how close she is, taste it in the flood of wetness coating my tongue.
“Corvus!” she cries out as she comes, her body shaking. I hold her steady, lapping up every drop as waves of pleasure crash over her.
When her trembling subsides, I stand up. Adelaide’s eyes are hazy with pleasure, her cheeks flushed. She jumps into action immediately, handing me the sponge she threw at me earlier.
Snorting, I take it from her and clean up. “Thanks,” I chuckle.
Adelaide blinks. “That was intense,” she breathes.
“Just wait until I can really taste you,” I say, running my tongue over my fangs.
She shivers and says nothing, but there’s heat in her gaze that tells me it will happen. Soon.
“See you tonight,” I murmur, knowing it’s time to leave now before I drag her to her bed and nail her to it with my cock whether she wants it or not.
“See you later,” she murmurs and waits as I transform back into my bat form. I take one last look at Adelaide and take flight through the open window, still tasting her blood on my tongue. That was the single most erotic thing I’ve ever been involved in, and that’s saying a lot.
Lost in thought, I almost don’t notice the two figures lurking in the shadows near the base of Adelaide’s tower, but they are kind of hard to miss with their very conspicuous presence here.
I bank sharply, transforming mid-air and landing gracefully on the ground. “Lucian. Asher,” I growl in warning. “Bit far from your rooms, aren’t we?”
Lucian steps forward, that vicious sneer making his face even uglier. “Corvus,” he drawls. “Fancy meeting you here. Checking up on the new girl, are we?”
Asher chuckles, a nasty sound that sets my teeth on edge. “Yeah, real noble of you, Corvus. I’m sure the faculty would love to hear about your late-night visits to a student’s room.”
“Go ahead. Blackthorn knows I’m here. But you two… yeah, not so much.”
Lucian shrugs, feigning innocence. “We’re just taking in the night air and keeping an eye on things. You know how it is, Corvus. Gotta make sure everyone’s following the rules.”
The threat in his words is clear. They’re looking for dirt, for any excuse to get me in trouble. But they’re barking up the wrong tree. I didn’t lie. Blackthorndoesknow I’m here.
“Listen carefully,” I say, my voice dropping to a dangerous whisper as I bare my fangs and hiss. “Adelaide Black is under my protection. If I so much as suspect you’re planning to hurt her, or use her to get to me, I’ll make you scream with so much agony, you will wish you could die. Are we clear?”
Asher takes a step forward, his fangs glinting in the moonlight. “Is that a threat, Corvus?”
I meet his gaze steadily. “It’s a promise. No one fucks with her. Spread the word.”
