“Ah,” she cried out. “Faster, Eric. Take the coldness away.” She grabbed her head as he drove himself in and out of her hot, snug depths.
“Georgia, nine hells. Georgia…”
She bucked her hips against his, meeting his every lunge. “Harder, Eric, make it go away.”
Her eyes squeezed shut and her mouth twisted in some kind of agony Eric couldn’t understand. Even more blood rushed to his cock until it was stone hard. He felt horror watching her, even as his climax kept building. He had to slow down. The baseness of this union disturbed him. Not like this. It’s not supposed to be like this. It shouldn’t be mindless sex.
She bit down hard on her lower lip, blood welling from the small puncture wounds. Her eyes flickered, still wild, but less so.

Georgia couldn’t think as the white-hot cold cut like a knife into her brain. After her orgasm had ebbed, the curse took its revenge for all her pleasure. It wanted dick, hard and inside her, now. The unrelenting madness threatened to take over as she begged for him to fuck her. Then all she could feel was the pound of his thrusts through the wall of cold, building, threatening to explode in her head.
Slowly, her mind thawed and the madness lifted. “Eric,” she whispered. Saying his name helped, but his furious in and out movements helped more.
His thrusting eased even as she pushed her hips against his. “Georgia.” He stroked her face, his voice soothing. He stilled inside her. “Georgia. Open your eyes, love. Look at me.”
She fought the impulse to obey him. She wanted to tell him that if she looked at him in that moment, she might never be able to give him up. She already cared for him, this stranger. Why? How? She didn’t know him. She hated him and hated herself for feeling something so much more powerful than the hate. Love. No! Impossible. Feelings were dangerous, especially anything resembling love—she couldn’t afford emotional attachments.
Against her will, she opened her eyes. It might have been a trick of the light, but she could have sworn the gray in his irises swirled with lights. Somehow, the vortex leading to his dark pupils warmed her mind and cooled the burning in her chest.
“Eric,” she whispered. “I need you to finish.” She loathed the need, detested the curse she never understood.
“I don’t want to take you like it means nothing, Georgia.”
He strained against her, and Georgia could feel his fight for control. Whatever he was doing, she was grateful she could think again. “It doesn’t mean nothing, Eric. To me, it is everything. It’s life.”
Those few words were all the encouragement he needed. Eric shifted back his hips then began thrusting in earnest. Impossibly, Georgia could feel another orgasm building. She lifted her ass and arched to take his long, thick length deep inside her. She raked her nails down his back until they rested on his firm buttocks, digging in, urging him to continue.
Her upper body jolted at the shockwave emanating. She sang out her pleasure in one long blissful moan. Her climax triggered his and Eric’s head flew back as he drove his cock deep. A howl of final ecstasy poured from his mouth. When his shudders subsided, he collapsed on top of her.
The heat of his body soothed her every nerve. “That… that was just wonderful.” For the first time in her life, Georgia felt like a complete person. Tears welled in her eyes, wetting Eric’s cheek.
“What’s wrong, Georgia? I didn’t hurt you, did I?” She could see the confusion in his eyes. How could he possibly understand?
“No, you didn’t hurt me.” She didn’t know how to explain that while she felt happier than she had ever been, she was also the most miserable she had ever been. “I can’t… I can’t see you again.”
“You’re mine.” His voice cut her, cold like a steel blade infused with ice.
His possessiveness should have scared her. Instead, she did something she’d never thought she would.
She told him about the curse.
