“I am, I just felt… full and sore.” I frown.
He smiles affectionately, his full lips reaching his eyes. His eyes are so warm, warmer than ever before.
“It does hurt Princess - the first time.”
I look down at my knotted hands embarrassed.
“Do not look away from me Anile.” He whispers gentle, “this is new to you, I understand that and I am here for all your questions.” He looks deep into my eyes. He takes my face in his hands, “you have no idea how free I feel that I can do this with you. I feel like I am somehow cleansing myself.” He confesses.
His words hurt my soul; I know exactly what he's cleansing himself from. I take his face in my hands.
“I want this. I want you, always. Please make love to me, Elijah, please.”
This time, surprisingly, he doesn’t make me lay on my front, he gently pushes me back into his plush pillows. I crawl back on all fours until I meet the pillows. I let myself fall back. He climbs between my legs, covering all of me with his huge hard body. He slides his hand between our bodies while looking down at me; through my breasts, down my tummy. The electric sensation I get from his touch is almost enough for me. He reaches my sex and starts to rub a little. Oh fucking yes! I love his hands - probably more than I love him! Stroke after stroke steals my humanity once more. Heaven, this is heaven. I mentally chant.
He does not massage me for long. I suddenly feel him move off of me again. I didn't even realize I was closing my eyes. I peer up at him, worried that something might be wrong.
He looks down at his hand and whispers, “you are bleeding a little; don’t be worried though, it's normal, okay?”
I swallow hard, trying desperately to fully trust him.
“I trust you, Elijah.” I whisper.
I feel his huge erection slide against the inside of my leg as he makes his way back to the entrance of my sex. My arousal has made him wet; I feel the wetness slick along the inside of my leg. He reaches me, and again rests the head of his penis at the entrance of my sex. I fall into myself, knowing this is it and I'm now ready - I now know what to expect.
Slowly, he emerges inside me. The sore penetrating feeling is still there but this time it's mixed with need, a need to cum so aggressively with him. He's my obsession; healthy or not, it's not my choice, the choice has been chosen for me by some kind of fate.
He takes my face in both of his hands and gives one last push so he's fully inside me. I gasp and nearly close my eyes again to try and cope with the pain but Elijah shocks the hell out of me, vanishing all my pain.
Out of nowhere, he locks lips with me, unexpectedly lays one on me while we are staring deep into one another's eyes. Sadly though, before I can even enjoy the taste of him, he just as quickly pulls away from me. He tries to hide himself by burying his head into the plush pile of pillows beside my face. I find it almost unbearable having to witness this man fall apart emotionally right in front of my very eyes. To me, he is enigmatic, strong, caring, adoring, he is everything - a golden shimmering mirage. I do not want to see him weak like this, that haunted look that possesses his face will haunt me beyond my life.
He quickly comes back to me. He presses his lips to mine again and roughly kisses me. His hard possessing lips hurt as they rub against mine. My lips swell beneath his. He looks as though I'm physically causing him pain - killing his soul. His eyes are tight, his frown lines are too much. I watch a single tear break free from his beautiful almost black eyes. I touch his face. While wiping his tear away he grabs my hand.
“No.” He whispers against my lips.
"You don't have to do this, Elijah." I implore.
"I need all of you, Anile." He begs as he deepens our kiss.
He closes his eyes and seductively slides his tongue into my mouth, investigating every part of me. He tastes so sweet, like forbidden fruit. I slide my tongue inside his mouth. Our lips fit so perfectly. I wrap my arms around his hard masculine body. I hold him tight, as tight as I can.
He slowly slides into my sex, and then back out, moving in perfect motion that has completely stolen my body. His mouth is more erotic than the sex. His lips are soft, making their rounds and covering every inch of me. I mirror his actions, loving him however I can. His lips are becoming sweeter by the minute; he tastes so divine. He slides his hand to the back of my head; he's trying to pull me closer to him but it's not possible.
Feeling animalistic with one another, we move faster as we get hotter, sensually sliding to a magical rhythm as I build to an all new high. My mind blanks from everything in the world as I grow in tune with him. I feel his heart beating rapidly against my chest.
“Anile, I need you.” He whispers against my lips.
“I'm here with you, Elijah. I promise.” I breathe into his mouth.
Elijah’s vague words come rushing into my mind.
'If one wants another only for some self-satisfaction, usually in the form of sensual pleasure, that wrong desire takes the form of lust rather than love.'
He loves me, I know he does - and I love him.
He starts to pound harder and harder, making me sore. I orgasm so unexpectedly; the gates to my soul open as I fall apart in his arms. Ecstasy fills my sex, my mind - everything. His lips continue to caress mine, making me want to literally be inside his skin.
Suddenly, his kiss locks dead still. His eyes penetrate my mind as I see his face change into something - desperation. He empties everything into me as he tenses and he finally lets go as he belts out an almighty roar.
"Ohhh, fuck!" He screams.
Seeing him this way and knowing that we both wanted this so badly gives me another orgasm.
“Please don’t stop.” I beg as I cum again, completely surrendering everything I am to him. Another eruption thunders through my body; butterflies flutter around my sex, fulfilling this stupendous sensation while I shatter into a million pieces. I release his body because I need to grip something else that doesn't cause me to feel heated - I'm falling apart! I'm literally panting for my life, he has to stop before I pass out!
Thankfully he slows with me, resting his forehead against mine. His sweat drips onto my face and down my cheeks, over my lips and onto my neck; he tastes salty, manly - I lick my lips while tasting the best part of him. We come down from our ecstasy rush together. We stop and pant between one another as we try to gather ourselves. He cups my cheeks as he looks at me – this is a different expression, I cannot tell what he's thinking.
After a while of becoming ourselves again, he whispers, “Anile, you mean so much to me Princess, please don’t ever leave me. Bear with me and let me grow into what you need.”
“You are what I need Elijah.” I promise him, frowning as pain fills my chest.
He pulls out of me, slowly, but it still hurts.
"Huh!" I gasp.
"Are you okay?" He says quickly.
I nod, flashing him a relieved smile. He returns my smile while he rolls to the side. He pulls me on top of him. He positions my face into his chest, holding me tenderly with one of his hands.
"How was that - how do you feel?" He asks, not cheeky, he truly sounds worried.
It was fucking hot! I want to scream but I need to be tender. "It was everything I ever expected and more." I say freely.
He presses his lips to my forehead while smiling against me. He holds me tight in one arm. I just rest on him, stroking his chest with gentle fingers. He's hairy, like a real man. I want to kiss him again but I cannot move, I ache from head to toe.
"It was everything and more for me too."
Wow, this is something I never knew I could feel. I feel, complete, no longer alone. I feel like I truly have a place in the world and that place is here in Elijah's arms.
"Elijah, thank you." I say soft.
"For what?" He lifts his head to look down at me. I don't look up at him, I don't need to.
"For making my first time special - perfect."
I stare out of the window, enjoying the wa
rm sun against my face. He kisses my forehead again.
“Rest Princess. Let the land of dreams feel your presence - but not for too long, I want you again.” He breathes.
I lay on top of him, feeling safe, relieved and completely happy that I am finally his in every way. I close my eyes and slowly drift into a peaceful sleep, dreaming of his dark compelling blue eyes.

Sophie and Castor
Secrets
"Did you get the money?"
"Yes Castor but I don't want to do this anymore. Anile is my oldest and best friend, this is wrong." Sophie says.
"You didn't have a problem when every piece of information you gave me was worth ten-thousand pounds! If you back out now I'll just reveal all our text messages."
"I don't want the money, take it back!" She cries.
"No, it's too late - the deal between us is done! You just keep anonymously tipping the press about insights into Anile's life and I'll keep up my side of the bargain. I'll get you a good job and I'll still pay you for every piece of information you give me."
"Why do you want to hurt your brother so badly?" She asks all too curious.
"That is none of your business." Castor snaps.
"You will tell me why! If you don't, I'll risk mine and Anile's friendship and just go tell her what you have made me do!"
"You wouldn't dare!" He viciously snaps down the phone.
"Try me." She says and almost hangs up.
"Wait!" He calls out in desperation. "My brother killed my mother."

"Now I will fetch myself the second," said the wizard, and again he went to the house in the shape of a poor man, and begged. Then the second daughter brought him a piece of bread; he caught her like the first, by simply touching her, and carried her away. She did not fare better than her sister. She allowed herself to be led away by her curiosity, opened the door of the bloody chamber, looked in, and had to atone for it with her life on the wizard's return. Then he went and brought the third sister, but she was clever and crafty. When he had given her the keys and the egg, and had left her, she first put the egg away with great care, and then she examined the house, and at last went into the forbidden room. Alas, what did she behold! Both her sisters lay there in the basin, cruelly murdered, and cut in pieces. But she began to gather their limbs together and put them in order, head, body, arms and legs. And when nothing further was wanting the limbs began to move and unite themselves together, and both the maidens opened their eyes and were once more alive. Then they rejoiced and kissed and caressed each other

Sneak peek
Chapter One
WHAT IS THIS? Where am I? Oh no, I’m under water! I swim in a frenzy, trying desperately to find a way to the surface. No, oh no – there’s nothing but darkness. I cry while gasping for air. I clutch at my throat and know this could be it for me. I watch my life flash before my very eyes. My mother tenderly kissing me while putting me to bed as a child; my father pushing me to be everything he was at university; Sophie endlessly getting me in trouble but making my teenage years worth living; Derek standing by my side throughout my adult life; and Elijah, oh Elijah. He's everything to me now, his gentle touch, his protective instinct, his prepossessing words, him making love to me.
No, this cannot be it for me, I need more time!
“Ahhh!”
The remaining air is knocked out of me as this frightening falling feeling possesses me. I feel myself drop through a dark black hole that's at the bottom of the water. I try to grab something - anything - to prevent myself from falling, but there is nothing, nothing but a dark black ocean.
“God please help me!” I scream.
Panic suddenly leaves my system. I strangely feel… okay, tranquilized. I've fallen into a field of wild yellow flowers. They are at least four foot high, stretching towards the sun on thick green stems. They surround me for miles, further than my eyes can see. They smell so sweet and look beautiful and bright. I peer down at myself while a feeling of pure happiness strangely washes over me; I’m completely naked, and tanned! My pale white skin is no longer.
“Where am I?” I mutter to myself.
“You are free.” A deep purring voice answers me.
I jump back in shock. My hands start to tremble; my vision goes blurry while a rush of adrenaline floods my system.
"Where the hell did that come from?"
I try to gaze around but the distance now seems really cloudy and unfocused.
“Where are you?” I ask.
I look up and peer around the clear blue sky but I see nothing. Everything strangely looks calm - sombre - but still unfocused. And there is no sign of anyone.
“I am everywhere," someone says, "in you and in him. You are now mine.”
“Who are you?” I gasp.
I turn to look once more; I squint my eyes to try and stabilize my vision. I see a demon suddenly appear right in front of me – somehow I know he’s a demon because of the vibe I’m getting from him. He is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen; he has pure white wings that spread to at least six foot wide; his hair is so long past his shoulders, and golden - his image completely captivates me. He’s standing in an almost perfect circle flower bed. All the flowers he’s standing on are dead though, they are crispy and brown.
“I am Lucifer.” He says.
He smiles and narrows his eyes at me, he seems as though he's trying to get a good look at me.
“Get away from me!” I instantly warn. The sheer sound of his name puts my system into panic mode.
“But you are mine," he waves his hand around my physique, "you gave yourself to me, Anile.”
“No! I would never give myself to you!”
“Oh but you did, you gave me your innocence, and I took it willingly.”
I try to swallow but my mouth is too dry. My breathing has almost grinded to a halt - shit!
“I gave my innocence to Elijah, not you!”
He smiles, revealing a beautiful set of white teeth that are surrounded by a perfect pout.
“Leave me alone!” I scream. I try to run from him but every time I turn he appears in front of me.
“Please leave me alone, why are you doing this?” I cry. I cover my face and fall to the ground in defeat, hoping that if I close my eyes long enough he will eventually disappear.
“I want your soul Anile; I will not stop until I get it." He smiles again while licking his teeth, "I am Elijah, I am inside him and I am almost inside you.”
“Ahhh!” I scream.
“Prin
cess, wake up.” Elijah calls out.
“No.” I say sleepily.
I try to roll over to keep myself from the morning light - the sun almost penetrates my eyelids, it's too bright.
“Are you okay? You were having a nightmare, Anile?” He whispers.
I gently turn – still half asleep - to see his worrying eyes scanning me, they bounce all over my face, from my eyes to my mouth.
“Was I?” I mutter.
“Yes. You were screaming and shaking.” He whispers.
I cannot help but smile at his sweetness. "I'm okay."
He effortlessly slides me across his bed towards him, pulling me into his strong arms. He wraps himself around me and rubs my naked arms to try and comfort me. His touch is heavenly and desired - desired more than before I gave myself to him. I snuggle into his embrace, tucking my head between his shoulder and chin. I inhale deeply - he still smells fresh and clean like he's just out of the shower; a spicy aroma mixed with soapy sweat, hmmm.
Thankfully, I don't remember my dream, although it must have been a nightmare if I was screaming.
"Are you sure you are okay?" He breathes into my ear.
“Honestly, I’m fine. - It’s cold isn’t it?” I say.
He instantly gets to his feet, sliding his warm arms away from me. My face falls because I’m already hit with loneliness – jeez, he’s only one foot away from me, what the hell is this?
“Where are you going?” I ask angelic.
He towers over me and unexpectedly picks me up with one strong arm, sliding it around my waist. His muscles feel hard and masculine against my tender skin. He smiles fondly with affectionate crinkled eyes – his blue eyes are intoxicating, especially first thing in the morning.
“What are you doing, Elijah?”
I try to look down at what he’s doing but it’s awkward. He moves the cream duvet covers back; he's putting me inside his bed because I'm cold. Oh sweet tender Elijah, how I miss you daily! I cannot help but smile like a giddy teenager. He lays me in his comfy warm bed and smiles when he notices my reaction. He pulls the duvet up so it's covering me all the way to my shoulders.
