“I want you to,” she gasps. “I never want this to end.”
“Don’t worry, baby girl. I’m not going anywhere.”
The bond between us tightens. I can feel her emotions and desires, and it only makes me want her more.
“Corvus,” she whispers, her voice filled with need.
I growl and pull away from the wall, staggering to the bed when I let her go to remove the rest of my clothes. Her legs are open for me, and I drop onto her, my cock returning to her warmth as I thrust inside her sweet pussy.
“Can you bite me back, baby girl?”
Her eyes snap open, and she nods. “I can try.”
“Do you want to?”
“Yes. But I don’t know if I can.”
“Bite me with your teeth first. The rest will come. It’s natural for you.”
She nods and presses her mouth to my neck.
I groan as I thrust deeper into her, feeling her body respond to me. She bites down harder, and I hiss as I feel the sting ofher teeth piercing my flesh. She hesitates, but I encourage her to keep going. “That’s it, baby girl. Bite me harder.” I whisper in her ear, my voice low and husky. She does as I say, and I feel her teeth sink deeper into my skin. It’s a strange sensation, but it’s also incredibly erotic.
I can feel my orgasm building again. I press down on her hips as I slam into her. “Feed from me, Addy.”
She moans and suckles, her body trembling uncontrollably under me. It must be when my blood hits her tongue, her fangs descend, and I feel them slicing into my vein. I groan, and my cock explodes cum inside her as she drinks from me. I’m rock hard again instantly, needing every second of this time with her to count.
The room spins as Addy’s bite heightens every sensation, every touch. I can feel her pulse, her heartbeat in sync with mine as we become one. Her nails scrape down my back, drawing blood.
She releases me, her eyes wild with lust and something more feral than I’ve ever seen. I roll us over, positioning her on top of me, her hair cascading around us like a dark curtain. She looks down at me with hooded eyes.
“Ride me, Addy.”
Her hips rise and fall in a rhythmic motion that drives me wild. I can feel her claws grazing my chest as she teases me.
I grip her hips, guiding her movements as she grinds against me. I can feel her climax building, her body tensing around me as she nears the edge. I thrust deeper into her, my third orgasm about to burst.
“Corvus,” she moans, my name a plea on her lips. With a final thrust, we both fall over the edge, our bodies convulsing together as our souls bleed into one another.
“Eternally mine,” I murmur, my hand clasping the back of her neck tightly.
“Eternally yours,” she replies with a slow smile as her eyes flash red and blood pours out of the sockets, stopping me dead in my tracks.

ADELAIDE
As the wordsleave my lips, I feel a sudden, searing pain behind my eyes. The world around me blurs, and I’m gripped by an overwhelming sense of terror. Something is wrong. It’s like a dam has broken inside my mind, releasing a flood of sensations and emotions I’ve never experienced before because they aren’t mine.
“Adelaide?” Corvus’s voice sounds distant, muffled, as if I’m underwater. I try to focus on his face, but my vision is clouded by a red haze. His features, usually so sharp and clear to my vampire senses, are now distorted, wavering like a mirage in the desert.
I blink rapidly, trying to clear my sight, but the red doesn’t disappear. If anything, it intensifies, deepening to a crimson so dark it’s almost black. A warm, thick liquid trickles down my cheeks. With a shaking hand, I touch my face, pulling it away to find my fingers coated in blood. The sight of it fills me with dread.
“Oh God,” I whisper, panic rising in my throat like bile. “Corvus!”
This isn’t some external force attacking me. This is coming from deep in my soul. It’s me, and yet... not me. A door has been opened in my mind, revealing a room I never knew existed, filled with shadows and whispers and a power that scares the shit out of me.
A memory flashes through my mind, vivid and frightening - the bathroom mirror earlier with the reflection that wasn’t mine. The woman, the vampire, with blood-red eyes and a cruel smile.Crimson. Crimson Sha—. It echoes in my mind, growing louder with each repetition until it drowns out everything else.
