I really should go to her and let her decide my fate before I lost control. My sister was an old lady at the end of her life. She didn’t need me. Plus, I had no reason to keep living off souls any longer, especially if Dirk’s information was correct. I didn’t want to become a plague on someone else’s life either. For the tiniest second, the idea of someone loving me filled me with hope.ButI didn’t want to become a nightmare for my nameless, mysterious woman who beckoned me in my dreams. Those two realities collided, and I exhaled.

Fuck. What I needed right then was relief. Unbuttoning my pants, I licked my lips and thought of her rich arousal spilling out in the dream. At any minute, I might walk to my truck, drive home, and press the button on that portal chip. I’d find her, get my hands on her, and…Yes.The idea had me reaching for my—

“You’re lucky no one else is in the back of the bar!” Dirk yelled. Looking to the left, I saw him beside me.

“Go away,” I shooed him.

“You going to do this here?”

“Fuck yes,” I moaned. “Need her, but I need relief first. Ithurts.”

“Show me the mark again.” Dirk asked as I rested against the pool table.

“Touch me, and you’re dead.” I pulled out my cock and stroked it.

“Something is strange about Sire,” Wallis whispered.

“Quiet, Wallis. I’m thinking,” Dirk said.

“I’ve been waiting so long for Sire to get a woman. When will we go get Boss’s lady? I want to see what she’s like,” Marty said excitedly.

“I don’t think this is just the bonding at work,” Dirk finally said. “Would you stop?”

Licking my lips, I jacked harder.Man, that feels good.I thought of my mate’s jet-black hair cascading over my bare chest as she leaned over me…Oh, yeah.

“I can’t believe what I’m seeing,” Marty murmured. “Sire has become Wallis.”

“It’s too soon into the bonding process for you to be this bad.” Dirk waved his hands in front of me.

I stopped, eyes widening as I stared at my cock in my hand.What the—I sat up, ignoring the wave of lust washing over me. Whipping my head left and right, I saw that no one paid attention to me. I swallowed, letting my hand drift lower once more. I couldn’t help it. I didn’t want to stop even though I should.

“Need her,” I croaked.

“Your soul bonds with hers. That way, you’re aware of her whereabouts and her desires. It even makes you more attuned to her emotions.” Dirk’s jaw dropped. “That’s it!This isn’t you, it’sher.You’re likely experiencing what she is on a smaller scale.”

Smaller scale?

I stroked it while imagining her. And it was still standing painfully erect, begging for relief. Begging for my mate.What was small about my agony?The damned purple petals were all over the place too.Enough. My jaw tightened as my cock twitched.

I’d find her and make her repeat the act. How could one woman be that fucking horny? I was dying. If she needed me that badly, I’d be there.

“Is she a succubus by any chance?” Marty asked. “It would explain a lot about Boss, anyway.”

Wallis covered his mouth and snickered like my pain was the funniest thing he’d ever seen. I’d never looked so foolish in front of them before, and it was getting on my nerves.

“That would make sense.” Dirk grinned. “Your bond is letting you know her needs. Seems to me it’s making sure you’re the only one who’ll deliver for her.”

I growled. The foreign sound, filled with a dark, swelling emotion, was less than human. A strange, ugly feeling tightened my chest at the idea of someone else satisfying her.

Was she a succubus?I never sensed demon blood within her. I only picked up on the Reaper power and her immortal soul.

No, she couldn’t be a demon. But maybe something similar?

Regardless, no one would touch her. I’d make certain of it, killing anyone who dared to try. My anger seeped through my pores, and my nostrils flared as I turned. My body readied for a fight with her. I would let her lash out at me after I’d eased her ache. But first, we would take care of our needs.

“I’ve got to find her,” I declared, carefully tucking my cock back inside my pants. My engorged dick pressed against my leg, and the throbbing seemed to intensify. I gritted my teeth and hissed. Zipping my jeans, I took a deep breath and mentally cursed myself for not bringing the portal chip with me. Even in my reaping form, it would take a few minutes to get home if I left my truck behind. As I hobbled around the pool table, I reached into my mind and located her.

I froze, forehead crinkling.That couldn’t be right.
