Just what I wanted right now.
The hand on the back of my neck moved to the front of my throat, pushing down until breathing became worrisome. Still, panic didn’t settle in my heart. In fact, the more he tried to hurt me, the more I reveled in it.
After a moment, the demon pulled back, his brow furrowed once more. His hand on my throat loosened, and his thrusts slowed but didn’t stop. He grabbed one of my thighs and hitched it up around his waist.
“You’re different. Where’s that fear I so loved to breathe in from you? It was intoxicating, but this... is new.” He cocked his head to the side, pausing his movements. “Who are you?”
“Let’s play a game.” The vicious grin that covered my face made the demon frown. Pushing up onto my elbows, I stroked my fingers over his chest, playing with the edges of his shirt before pulling him down to my level so I could nip at his lip. “Do you want to cause a bit of.. chaos?”
A low growl came before his mouth descended on mine. Instead of just taking what I gave him, he grabbed at my dress, ripping the bodice until my breasts came free. His mouth moved from mine and dipped down to my chest, sucking and biting at my flesh.
Not one to let someone else have all the control, I grabbed the hand on my hip and dragged it between us.
Those red eyes lifted from my breast to meet my gaze as I pushed his fingers against my core. I used him to stroke myselfin hard movements that had me opening my mouth in a silent scream. My inner muscles spasmed, gripping around his length until his eyes flickered from red to hazel and back.
Before Zane could take over, I brought my lips to his ear, my eyes catching movement over his shoulder. “I need you to find some secrets for me.”
“About who?”
“The council.” I pulled back, now knowing if he heard me before Zane’s eyes finally shifted back to his own.
My gaze locked with Gage’s in the doorway of the chapel. My lips ticked up ever so slightly.
Zane jerked back into himself and looked at me, panic in his eyes. “Oh my god, Eva. I’m so sorry.” His gaze settled on my ripped dress and the bite marks on my breasts. “He hurt you.”
I cupped his face with my hands and drew him close. “No. No. He didn’t. Don’t stop.” I rolled my hips against him, squeezing him until the feeling of me around him overrode what his alter half might have done in his stead.
Kissing him softly, I rode him until his body tensed and he held me closer, groaning against my neck. “God, Eva. I can’t hold it.”
My eyes locked with Gage’s. He hadn’t moved from where he stood.
I bent my lips to Zane’s ear and murmured, “You feel so good. Don’t stop.”
Zane thrust into me in rapid succession, chasing the end so near. My eyes stayed on Gage the whole time, my own release a slow ebb that wouldn’t crest before Zane’s.
But Zane surprised me. He reached his hand between us and pinched my clit, sending a shock of pleasure through me.
My head fell back, a long cry ripping from my throat. Zane groaned in turn, pulsing inside of me until he filled me with hisrelease. His forehead pressed against my throat before he placed a soft kiss there.
“That was amazing. You were amazing.”
I pressed my lips to his brow before locking eyes with Gage once more. “I know.”
Gage’s hands tightened into fists, and he stepped forward.
I’d gotten what I wanted and didn’t see this going well if I stayed any longer. So I drew back from Zane and brushed my nose against his. “I’m not your enemy, Zane. Remember that.”
Purple light surrounded me before I disappeared and reappeared back in my bedroom at Rebecca’s house.
I collapsed back on the bed, my fingers trailing over the bite marks on my breasts. Only time would tell if my efforts had been wasted or not.
Though, at that moment, I couldn’t imagine anything about what had just happened as a waste.
Chapter 16
I sat down at breakfast with Rebecca a few days later. I was itching for new information. For something, anything that would get us moving along.
“What have you learned?” I asked.
