She smiles bashfully. “Are you going to fuck me now, Mr. Diamonte?”

“Yeah, I am, but I actually like hearing my name from your lips.” I seal my mouth to hers. Her tongue flicks around mine as they tangle in the air. I hook my forearm under her right leg, pulling that calf to rest on my shoulder as she leaks around my throbbing length. I’m about to embarrass myself if I don’t get my shit together.

“Grind against my clit, just like that.” She gasps. “Fuck, Echo. Pound me deep.”

I grin against her cheek as my eyesight goes hazy. That generally means my eyes are milky white. “Are you sure you can handle me at super speed?”

“Yes, so much, yes! Bruise me until all I can feel is you.”

I grin. She’s clenching around me in a way that makes it impossible not to give her exactly what she demands.

“Remember, you asked for this.” I thrust deeper and harder on each rhythmical snap of my pelvis against hers. My fingers brush her cheek as my cock grows impossibly hard. She’s so slick and warm, but it’s the look on her face and the sounds she makes that do me in. I’ve spent several hundred years not truly being desired by anyone, and it only ratchets my need higher. “Clench that slick little pussyjustlike that.”

Nadia thrashes, digging her toes into my lower back as she begs.

“Scream for me, baby,” I growl, bumping her face with mine. My fangs throb with the same ragged pulse of my heartbeat. My heart never pounds, but it’s beating significantly faster than normal. “Can I bite you?”

“Oh fuck, yes,” she sobs.

I don’t think it through. Instead, I strike her throat and moan as I flick my tongue over her sweaty skin. Her blood is incredibly potent, but I’m fairly sure it’s the fact her baby fangs dig into my shoulder that creates a circuit, feeding me her desire and emotions as mine flow into her. The most powerful orgasm I’ve ever experienced rips through me. It’s nearly impossible to keep fucking in and out of her as she locks down on my cock.

My fangs retract, and I lick over the bite to seal the wound. The little witch does the same as I tremble over her.

She stares up at me from under dark lashes, and that look is dangerous as hell for both of us. It makes me ache to make her mine in ways that would get us both killed.

ChapterTwenty-Four

Nadia

“Ugh,” I groan, gently shoving away Echo’s arm. His fingers slide in and out of my slick, very satisfied, pussy. “Why are you so annoying? I was enjoying that nap.”

Echo laughs a little ominously. “Oh, baby darkling. You let me fill you full of my cum. I need to keep it where it belongs. Let’s pray we aren’t summoned by the council until my scent fades from your body.”

“Um, fuck them. Who I’m intimate with is none of their goddamn business,” I hiss, slapping away his hand that’s still playing in a mixture of our juices.

Echo isn’t fazed in the least. He continues shoving his cum back inside my body. “Don’t be a difficult darkling,” he says with a smirk. “How am I to seed your belly if you don’t keep my cum inside your womb?”

I sit up, slapping his hand away. “You’re a vampire. There are no baby vampires. Don’t be ridiculous.”

“No baby vampires recently, but ancients are able to create dhampir.” He grins wickedly. “I’m honored you would consider breeding with me.”

“You’re so full of shit.” I laugh, shaking my head.

He’s not an ancient.

His maker may be one, but he’s not.

Imogen is extremely old and powerful, though. A slight shiver of unease slides through me.

Echo’s face turns deadly serious. “I’m not. Did your council, or lessons, teach you nothing?”

I bring my wrist to my mouth and my fangs slide down.

Echo snatches my hand before I can slice my skin to get blood for an extra refresher on my contraception spell.

“Absolutely fucking not,” he growls, pinning my hands to the mattress above my head. His thick cock notches at my entrance, and he slams his hips into mine, impaling me on his shaft. “You’re going to let me breed you, darling darkling.”

A pathetic whimper I’ll be embarrassed about later escapes. Why is that so hot? It really shouldn’t be. I’m like ninety-nine percent sure my contraceptive spell has me covered, except there’s the fact that my magic has been weird lately.
