Page 102 of His Darkest Desire

“Vex!” Squeezing her eyes shut, she threw her head back as sharp, breathy cries tore from her throat and heat flooded her core.

His tongue stroked her pulsing clit relentlessly, drawing out her cries and holding her at that peak; he did not allow her to descend, did not allow the sensations to dull even slightly. She fell forward, planting her palms on the bed as she ground her pussy against his mouth, unable to stop, driven purely by instinct.

Vex’s hands cupped her ass, holding her in place and guiding her movements until another burst of pleasure swept through her.

She screamed, bunching the blanket in her fists as more heat spilled from her and ran down her inner thighs, and Vex drank from her pussy as though unwilling to waste a drop.

“Please, no more,” she pleaded when her sex contracted again. “Enough!”

The ghostly hands vanished. Vex’s hold tightened, and Kinsley’s world flipped. She landed on her back, cushioned by the soft bedding. Before she understood what had happened, he crawled over her, wedging his hips between her thighs. His wings spread behind him, blocking out the firelight. Only those glowing eyes remained, dangerous, intense, and fixated upon her.

He grasped her chin and growled, “I will never have enough of you.”

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

Vex stared down at Kinsley. He reveled in her pink-stained cheeks, her parted lips and panting breaths, her full, lush breasts. Her body quivered in the aftermath of her climax. She was radiant. His moonlight, his goddess, lost to the pleasure he’d provided.

He ran the tips of his tongue across his lips. Her essence lingered there, ambrosial and alluring, ensuring that his hunger would never be sated. He would spend eternity craving more, more, more.

But another need was stronger still. It flowed through his veins like fire, pumped by the blazing heart in his chest. It reverberated through his entire being, body, mind, and soul, devouring him, compelling him.

Claim her.

Make her yours.

And the heated gleam in her half-lidded eyes held the same desire. She wanted him. She wanted to be his.

Kinsley flattened her palms on his chest, and Vex groaned as she smoothed them down his abdomen to the waistband of his pants. But they didn’t stop there. Boldly, she cupped his cock. Vex hissed through his teeth and shuddered at the overwhelming pleasure.

With a coy smile, she said, “You know, this might work better with your pants off.”

Vex chuckled, and something swelled in his chest—something warm and rich that had naught to do with the flames of his desire. This was Kinsley. His teasing, playful, brave, stubborn mate. She who had brought light and laughter into his world.

When had he last found reason to laugh, to smile? When had he last known joy or lightheartedness? When had he yearned for aught but revenge and freedom? The wisps had found their bits of contentment in this nether realm, and Vex had convinced himself that was enough.

He had not been deserving of the same.

But now that she was here, he’d take all the joy he could. And when his curse was finally lifted, when they were finally freed from this place, Kinsley would want for naught, and her happiness would be his own.

“You’re correct. They’d only make things unnecessarily difficult.” Vex willed his trousers away. Arcane energy swept over his skin, dissipating the fabric and leaving him exposed to the cool touch of the air on his backside.

Yet he paid no mind to that chill. With the final barrier eliminated, Kinsley’s soft, smooth, warm hand was directly upon his cock. Her touch was like a branding iron, scorching but sweet.

Kinsley’s eyes flared in surprise and dipped. “Oh…” She tightened her grip and brushed his ridges with her thumb. “These…these will feel very nice.”

“Kinsley,” he growled. His muscles tensed, and both his wings and his cock twitched. That slight change of pressure, that little stroke, and he was already on the verge of exploding.

Her eyes met his, and she smiled. “And I take it this feel nice?”

She wrapped her fingers fully around his shaft and pumped her hand. Vex gritted his teeth and curled his fingers, puncturing the bedding with his claws. Tingles coursed just beneath his skin, and the ache in his groin deepened. His wings stretched wider as seed seeped from his cock.

Kinsley swiped her thumb over the tip, gathering his seed, and spread it along his shaft with another pump of her hand. She pressed her lips lightly against his shoulder. “Is that a yes?”

Succumbing to such pleasure, such bliss, would have been easy. It would’ve required no thought. All Vex would’ve had to do was feel.

But he didn’t want this to end. Not now, not like this. He’d made a vow.

When next I spill my seed, it will be inside you, my Kinsley. My mate.
