He snarls in approval and slams into me harder. My legs wrap around him on instinct, locking him in. His lips graze my neck as every part of me tenses. I’m on the brink of ecstasy as he hits the spot again and again.
I feel it before I understand what’s happening. I feel the sharp sting of teeth grazing skin. Not biting, but almost…
My heart stutters, my eyes flying open as I turn to stare into his vibrant blue ones.
He… almost marked me…
“Fuck…” he whispers as I gaze into his eyes. He drives into me again, harder than before.
I clench around him tightly as my orgasm explodes through me, blistering pleasure makes my toes curl as euphoria dances around me. He follows with a growl that echoes like thunder, burying his face in my neck as he spills inside me, his whole bodytrembling with the force of it.
“One day soon, I’ll mark you. But that day isn’t today…” he whispers in my ears, making my entire body tingle with the thought. I wrap my arms around him, pulling him against me as I stare at the ceiling, as he buries his head into my neck.
I feel the promise in his breath, in the way his teeth linger on my skin.
Soon.
A single tear trickles down my cheek as I try to speak, try to tell him I’ve fucked up, tell him I need help, but nothing comes out of my mouth.
Nothing.
We are thelast ones down. Everyone turns to look at me as I follow Jayce into the lounge after showering. I smile politely.
“Sorry I’m late,” I say as I take one of the two empty seats, the one between Allie and Heaven, whilst Jayce sits across the table next to his grandfather.
Speaking of, the older man cocks a brow as he glances between Jayce and me.
“Well, we were nice enough to save you a seat right between us,” Allie says, smiling sweetly. It doesn’t reach her eyes, and I giggle. So, they specifically saved me a seat, so I didn’t sit anywhere near Jayce.
“It’s quite alright, let’s eat!” Aunty Raven says as she sitsbetween Theo and Uncle Liam. She looks so small in comparison to the two giants.
“You didn’t miss much, Jayce. I did take a look at one of the books, and it appears that a few of us can read them: Dad, Theo, Carter, Dante, Katara and Kiara, which means most likely so can your other brothers. There’s a lot of information to get through, and if we work together, it’ll help us be able to translate all the information into English,” Uncle Liam says as we all dig into the delicious meal in front of us.
There’s a variety of dishes, including roasted chicken, which is the first thing I put on my plate. I am famished.
“Hmm, for now, aside from Dante and yourself, I don’t want anyone else reading them.” Jayce frowns deeply as he says this, and several of us at the table look surprised.
“Why do you say that? We are family here,” Enrique says.
Jayce shakes his head. “The fewer who know, the less chances there are that they can be tortured for the information. What information can be shared will be, and that which needs to be kept secret shall be.”
“Jayce, that’s-” Uncle Liam begins.
“He’s the Deimos King, Liam. These tomes are his responsibility,” Grandma Red says.
“So, you don’t trust us,” Carter states.
“I don’t think that’s why he said that,” Kataleya says softly. “This is his duty-”
“Not the time for that, Kat,” Carter cuts her off.
“You won’t speak to your cousin like that,” Aunty Raven says, her eyes flashing warningly.
Carter shakes his head, clearly pissed as he picks up hisglass, gulping half of it down before placing it down harder than expected.
“You can place locks on them that only you can open. If you want, I can help you with that,” Heaven says.
“You know, Blondie, we have the King of Witches here?” Theo remarks.
