  She leaned forward, her breath feeling wet and hot on the tip of my length, before she took me fully into her mouth. I writhed under her, bucking gently, not wanting to harm her. It was so good. Her tongue felt amazing, sliding up and down against me. She was an evil temptress with that sexy tongue of hers, sucking me, licking my slit.

  I grabbed her and hauled her up. I wasn’t going to be the one to lose this battle. I wrestled her to the ground, placing my elbows on either side of her. My tip slid against her panties, now moist, her aroused scent intoxicating. I could be evil too. I started with her breasts. Sucking one delicately, my teeth grazing the nipple while my hand played with the other. My knuckles nudged her clit through her panties, starting light and soft. She ground against me and I chuckled.

  I pulled her panties off and slipped a finger inside her tight walls, circling her, pushing her. She whimpered under me, but no. I wasn’t done. I wanted her to remember this moment, this pleasure. I slipped another finger inside her. She was so hot and wet, my cock ached to be inside her. But not yet. She wasn’t where I wanted her to be.

  As I fingered her, I kissed a path from her breasts down the length of her, my shoulders nudging her legs apart. The scent of her swirled around me, smelling of raindrops dripping down treetops. I mouthed her thigh, my teeth lightly sinking into her skin. My cock throbbed at her moan, her pleading to remain there, her hands toying with my hair.

  I nuzzled her thighs, licking them lavishly before traveling to her center, my tongue circling around her little sensitive nub. She arched, her legs tightening. I delved deeper, circling around her, enjoying the taste. Her cries spurred me on. My finger went in deeper, faster. I inserted another, making her back arch.

  “God, Vorian,” she cried, and I licked her, my tongue swirling around, worshiping her until she screamed her release, her legs clutching me, her wetness soaking my tongue.

  My cock was so hard I was going to explode.

  I crawled toward her, ripping off my shirt and throwing it somewhere behind me. My cock nuzzled near her wet center, nudging her still-throbbing entrance. She whimpered under me and I pulled her up so she was straddling me, her body limp, her eyes half-closed in sated desire. But I wanted more. I wanted to hear her screaming my name again, begging me for it.

  Her arms hooked around me as she took my mouth, her legs gripping me, her center just at my tip. Her waist dipped down on top of my cock’s head as it entered her warm center, making me inhale sharply. I didn’t think she would be ready for another go this soon. She felt so warm and tight. I wanted to nudge forward, enter her completely, but I held back, instead saying the words I knew would make her gasp in desperation: “Beg me for it. I need to know for sure how much you want it.”

  I knew she wanted it, but seeing her so pliable beneath me—this beautiful creature that nobody else could tame—I couldn’t help but tease her.

  “Vorian,” she whined, and I could see the struggle in her eyes between the desire to be in control, and the need to be taken. Finally, the need won. “Please, Vorian. Take me.”

  Ellie

  I begged Vorian, finally leaving myself at the mercy of another for perhaps the first time since I was an innocent child. I knew I was in good hands; Vorian had proven as much. And now, finally, he gave it to me in a way that was primal. I cried out, feeling his cock inch its way so deep inside me. He was so big and hard that he filled me up completely.

  I wanted more of him. I wanted his teeth on my neck, and I thought he wanted it too. It felt like heaven having him scrape his teeth against that sensitive spot. I wasn’t sure what any of it was about, but something deep down in me told me it was right. That it was to be.

  I pulled at the back of his neck, pressing his mouth there, tossing my head back and allowing wave after wave of pleasure to take me higher. I needed him to bite me, to claim me. Somehow I knew what it meant to him, to his species, to bite me.

  His cock rammed into me again and again. My legs shivered at each thrust and I thought I would implode from the pleasure that shot through my body. I felt his fingers at my clit, circling and playing with me. God, I didn’t think I could take any more of this. I needed him to sink his teeth into me.

  “Bite me,” I gasped into his ear.

  He growled, his mouth opening wide. I saw a brief flash of fangs, then pain and pleasure seeping down into me from my neck down to my core, combining with the sensation between my legs. I bucked against his fingers. He thrust deeper into me and I cried out, holding his face to my neck. His teeth were latched on, his other hand digging into my backside. I felt like I was rising higher and higher, my body quivering until finally I could no longer go any higher.

  My whimpers turned into cries with each thrust and I felt myself letting go, coming all over him, my body unable to take any more of his ministrations. With one final thrust he shivered, his pulsing cock filling me to the brim as he moaned in pleasure before his body went limp.

  We sat like that, rocking back and forth. I enjoyed his head buried in my neck and my hands stroking his back, my body weak and sated. I couldn’t stop touching him. His hair, his wings, his face. He was mine and I was his.

  When he finally let me go, he gazed up at me. “Ellie,” he breathed, and my heart fluttered at the sensation of him saying my name with such tenderness. He leaned forward, kissing me lightly on the lips.

  “Vorian,” I replied, touching my forehead against his. I couldn’t move from him, didn’t want to. It felt so good being in his arms again. I wanted this time to last forever.

  I gazed up at the twinkling stars, his mouth licking and sucking my bruised neck as if somehow his lips could heal it. His grunts of pleasure sent butterflies rippling down through me and I realized I could never leave him. That thought made me force myself away from him, sliding off his lap and crawling back toward where my dress hung on a bush of black flowers. I grabbed it, throwing it on, feeling like I was different somehow. But how?

  Vorian’s arms circled around me and I gasped at his touch, finding it to be the most warm and welcoming thing. I wanted him. I wanted him like my mother wanted my father.

  And it scared me.

  Yet I also knew I had nothing to worry about. His claiming me meant something undeniable. “I’m forever yours, Ellie,” he whispered in my ear, as if he knew somehow that I needed to hear it. “Nothing can get in the way of us.”

  I sat in the lab, tinkering with a few devices. No matter how hard I tried, it was impossible to think of anything else but last night. Even when I tried to think about what to explore on Adonia, or how to get my sister back on the Orion, image after image of last night’s exploitations affronted me. And no matter how hard I tried not to think about it, the reality was, I wanted to do it again.

  And again.

  And again.

  I really was shameless.

  He was an alien, I reminded myself. But everything seemed to work regardless… I blushed just thinking about having him inside me, his teeth at my neck. “Bite me,” I had said.

  He cared. That was undeniable. At the sound of wedding bells going off in my head, I scoffed and stood. I needed something to do. Anything to do. Vorian was at work with Dravak, who was displeased to leave the sanctuary of his lab. Zoe was with Lyra in the castle library, deep inside where she’d be safe.

  We hadn’t discussed the threatening box, or the attack on the Orion. We had been too caught up in each other, I supposed, not to mention the inner castle was damn near impenetrable. Vorian had engaged the castle’s internal security measures after Lyra and I had returned. Now only those with clearance could get past the balconies. So I was safe. My sister was safe.

  For now, at least.

  My stomach grumbled and I realized I had been down tinkering in the lab for at least a few hours. Time really flew around here… I decided on a quick trip to the kitchen.

  It was crazy, thinking back on the meager rations I used to live off of. No wonder I was so gaunt and unhealthy. I occupied my mind o
n the way to the kitchen with all the possible foods available to me, now that I lived in my mate’s castle.

  My mate. Something about that phrase felt so right. So normal.

  As I walked past my room, I noticed through the gossamer drapes someone standing on the balcony.

  I couldn’t help myself. I smiled and walked through the door toward him, excitement filling me up at the thought of Vorian returning early from work to be with me. I was sure there was much we could get up to while everyone was away…

  “Back so soon,” I said with a smile, hurrying toward him. I expected him to stroll toward me and shove me up against the wall and take me yet again, but he remained still. Watching me. “Did you miss me?”

  I stopped before arriving at the balcony entrance, the sun shining through the clouds, making it easier to see his face. My heart fell and I took a step back. “Sure,” Valk said, taking a predatory step toward me, the side of his once plastic-like face charred from being scorched. “I guess you could say I missed you.”

  He was the one on the Orion.

  He was the one who attacked me and my sister.

  How hadn’t I realized that?

  I ran, bolting toward the secured door. There was pain in my scalp as Valk grabbed me by a handful of my hair and hauled me toward him. He laughed as I hit him, kicked him, and tried to ram my head into his ugly burnt face. His grip was tight. His breath reeked.

  “Try all you want, human slut,” he breathed in my ear. “But there’s no way you are getting away from me this time.”

  Chapter Nineteen

  Vorian

  The smell of Ellie still on me made me smile as I thought of the previous night, how she writhed in my arms. Despite the current presentation of this meeting, there was no way I could think of anything else other than her.

  Well, there was one other thing: Valk wasn’t present. His empty chair weighed on me for a reason I couldn’t fathom. He was invested in this project, yet he wasn’t here, leaving me with the work of approving today’s various proposals. Still, not even that could ruin my mood.

  “Bite me,” she had said.

  The memory had me growling and my face heated when I felt glances tossed my way. I should get her something, do something for her. Something bold to further prove my affections for her. I felt around in my pocket, touching my mother’s ring. I had retrieved it from my mother’s jewelry box the other day. It was a simple gold band, passed down through generations.

  It was for me to give to my mate, tying us together.

  I wondered what Ellie would say or do when I presented it to her. If she would accept it. After last night, I felt like she returned my affections. Maybe I should ask Lyra what was best.

  I felt a tug, my chest burning, my forehead beading with sweat. I groaned, leaning forward and resting my hands on the table, ignoring the stares. Something was wrong. Ellie was in danger, but this was different. The pain in my chest didn’t hurt this bad last time when Ellie went into shock. What was going on?

  The next pull nearly had me gasping.

  I abruptly stood. “Where are you going?” someone asked, but I didn’t care. I didn’t have to explain myself. I needed to get to Ellie. Something was definitely wrong.

  I stalked toward my office, throwing off my tie and jacket and opening the window. I walked off into the sky, allowing myself to free fall before expanding and flapping my wings as I flew back toward my residence.

  Yet, somehow, that felt all wrong too. The pull was tugging me somewhere else, in the opposite direction of the residence, toward the peaks we were at the night before. But it didn’t make sense. Why would the pull drag me there? There was no way Ellie could possibly get there on her own. There was no path up to them, and even just walking to the valley would take days for a human.

  Why wouldn’t she be home? Did I do something wrong? She seemed happy and well yesterday. She was a bit quiet after we returned home, but she still looked lovely and tender. Her gaze seemed to linger on me. I thought we were actually moving forward. I looked out into the distance, looking at the peaks. If she went there, she couldn’t have gone far.

  I remembered telling her to stay deep inside the castle, away from the balconies until we figured out who had attacked her and her sister on the Orion. She wouldn’t have been foolish enough to go out despite my cautioning her, would she?

  I knew my mate was no idiot. Even if she was upset with me for some reason, she’d take her frustrations out in the lab, not risk exposing herself to whoever had been threatening her.

  Unless her attacker managed to trick her out onto the exposed balcony, but who would know how to do that?

  Horror struck me like a lightning bolt through my body as it dawned on me who had been behind the threat, behind the attack on the Orion.

  When the realization came, I pounded my wings harder than ever before.

  Valk, you asshole.

  I’d kill him, outright kill him, if he did anything to harm her. Our family’s centuries long alliance wouldn’t matter. Our joint business venture wouldn’t matter. None of it would matter.

  Not if my mate was hurt.

  Ellie

  I was strong and brave. I wasn’t going to allow myself to be scared by this failure of an Adonian male known as Valk.

  But after the second time he dropped me from the sky, allowing me to free fall down into the valley, I regressed into a childlike state, completely and utterly scared for my life. I shrieked as he let go of me again, my arms scrambling to catch anything, wishing I could just land on a big fluffy cloud and have it float me away. I wished all of this was just a terrible nightmare and soon I would wake up in Vorian’s arms as he kissed all my fears away.

  Instead, it was Valk who swooped down, catching me with a grunt. I sobbed, wiping tears from my eyes. He flew higher in the sky, higher than before. I held onto him tightly, hoping that he somehow wouldn’t be able to tear me away from his body.

  However, when we finally reached the new height, with the land below looking so small I could barely see the peaks in the clouds, he tore me away from him, keeping me from falling by holding onto my arm. My legs flailed under me and I grabbed his wrist.

  “Can’t have you dying too soon,” Valk laughed.

  “Why are you doing this?” I sobbed, closing my eyes. The wind whipped my hair around me, swiping at my tear soaked face.

  “Why?” Valk shook me as my other hand reached, latching onto his arm. I wasn’t going to let him drop me again. Not this time, I told myself. I didn’t think I could handle another drop. “Why should that disgusting excuse for a male be happy? Especially with you?”

  Valk snarled, his lineless face twisted and contorted, as he continued, “You humans are all pathetic. No wings, frail bodies, worthless. He could have had my sister. The marriage could have taken our family to new heights.” He swooped down and tossed me onto a grassy peak below. I landed on my shoulder. First I heard the snap, then I was screaming in pain.

  Valk floated down, hovering for a moment before landing elegantly. He stomped toward me. I jumped to my feet, holding my injured arm, and ran from him, escaping to the cliff’s edge, only to find an endless sea of clouds. “Try all you want, little girl.” Valk strolled toward me as if taunting human women and threatening to kill them was the most natural thing for him to do. “There’s no way you are getting off this peak without doing a bit of flying.”

  I ran from him, dodging his arm as he tried to pull me back. He chuckled. I ran to the other side, hoping, praying there would be some sort of rocky path I could take, although in reality that probably wouldn’t matter. He was faster and stronger.

  “Did you know, after Vorian’s accident, my sister was forced to break off the engagement? I mean, who could stay with a broken Adonian? Even with Vorian’s mechanical wing, he can still barely fly.”

  I looked down the cliff, faced with a wall of nothing. No rocks. No plants. Just a wall. I ran to the other side.

  “Now my sister can’t
get a single proposal. There are whispers behind her back. My house is shamed for not upholding our end of the deal, for not being loyal. That pathetic little worm doesn’t deserve happiness.” Valk lifted his legs and surged forward, landing right in front of me and grabbing my hair.

  I cried out, trying to push him away, but he shook me, my head rattling from the force. “And then he meets you, the pathetic broken little human girl. I guess like goes for like.” He tossed me behind him and I shrieked when I landed on my broken arm. “When I discovered his attachment for you at the royal palace, I realized what would make my day.”

  He strutted toward me until he was right above me, his boot pressing into my shoulder. “Taking his most precious thing away from him and then watching him rot day by day.”

  “Are you honestly stupid enough to think you can kill me and not have Vorian rip off all of your limbs?”

  Valk let out an irritatingly confident laugh. “Of course not. Killing you wouldn’t be any fun anyhow. It’d be over too quick. No, you’re going to leave Vorian, tell him you two can never be… Lest I make life very difficult for you and your sister.”

  “Yeah, as if he’d believe that. Not to mention you broke my damn arm. How am I going to explain that?”

  Valk grabbed my injured arm’s wrist and yanked, setting the bone back in place. The scream that bellowed out of me was louder than any of the previous ones, the pain shooting through my entire body.

  “There. Fixed.”

  “Idiot,” I managed to say past my pained gasps. “Vorian will know something’s wrong.”

  “No, he won’t. He’s at a very important meeting, and I made sure to check that his servants were also preoccupied. Zoe and Dravak won’t notice you’re missing any sooner than he would. No, I’m going to drop you back off on the balcony, and you’re going to pretend not a damned thing happened. You’re just going to do as I say.”
