“Clever girl. Tell me,” I beg, my eyes going a little wild at the idea.
She shakes her head. “Never. He paid me an inordinate sum of money to never tell you.”
“You two are trouble. But seriously. Be careful with Alastair. And most importantly, don’t let him bite you.”
The blush on her cheeks tells me he already has. Interesting. I’ve not known him to do that with a human he wassleeping with. Guess there is a first for everything. “I’m going to pretend like I don’t know that information and repeat my warning to be careful.”
“I will. But what about you?” she asks, face going serious.
“What about me?” I say carefully, unsure what she’s getting at.
“I’m not stupid, sis. I know you’re planning on turning soon.”
“Who told you?” I ask, ready to tear either Alastair or Reign apart. This won’t go well. My sister will never understand my decision.
She scoffs. “No one, dummy. You’re my sister. And I know you. And…. “She draws the word out, pausing for dramatic effect. “And you moved to the only country in the world that has legalized transitions. Der,” she laughs again.
Wow. So, she knows. And I’d never deny it. Not to her. “Are you okay with the idea?” I ask her, studying her eyes.
She nods without any hesitation. “I’m good with whatever makes you happy. And who knows… becoming immortal. I might want to do it myself, someday.”
Her words shock me. And I want to protest, but how hypocritical would that make me? Anyways, I kind of like the idea. Like she said, once she’s older. We’d be together—for always.
Libby meets my eyes. “So, when’s it going down?”
“Well, we struck a bargain.” I pause, biding my time. “We want to be married for a bit first.” She nods like this makes sense.
“And I’m going to be inseminated first, have a baby. Then when the baby is older and I can be away for a few months, we’ll do it then.”
I expect her to ask me why I’ll need time away, but I figure she’s already researched it. She’s so clever.
“I’m really happy for you, sis.” She gives me a half hug.
“I’m so glad you decided to come live with us. This is just so perfect,” I say into her neck, which I now see has two perfect bite marks on it. Damn Alastair.
Chapter 48
Reign
Four Years Later
Tressa pulls the chain above her, water cascading down from the rainfall shower head, drenching her from head to toe.
I get half-hard just watching her. Streams of water run down her body and her nipples harden from the cool water. I have to force myself to look away to try and tame my erection, which is of course, a lost cause. My love and attraction to her know no bounds.
Tressa trains her gaze on me, and her challenging smirk tells me she knows exactly what game she's playing. Bad little girl. She'll be spanked later for trying to rile me up like this.
I raise an eyebrow in question and Tressa shuts off the spray of water and wraps a towel around herself, covering up all of those beautiful assets. She really is my princess. My queen. She saved me from a bitter and lonely existence.
“Join me,” she says with a smirk as she walks past me on the way to our massive king- sized bed. She lays on her back with her dark hair spilling over the pillows, her breasts rising and falling with each sharp breath. She’s nervous. Tonight is a big night, after all.
Joining her on the bed, I kneel between her parted knees. Just knowing that I’m about to feel her fiery warmth for the last time, it’s indescribable. It’s not just our bodies connecting, my heart is just as engaged. And I know this will change everything between us, and the way she’s looking up at me with thosestunning blue eyes of hers, I know she can feel it too. The electricity in the air around us is filled with anticipation and desire and love.
I plant one hand on her hip and the other traces whisper-soft circles on her inner thigh. Her legs fall open, exposing her to me. She’s beautiful. So perfect.
Part of me wants to take my time and savor this, and the other part of me is screaming at me to get inside her as quickly as possible.
Gripping my shaft, I bring the head of my cock to her opening. Tressa watches me with wide eyes. And fuck, I can’t take my eyes off of her either.
