“What you look like and what it does is not on you. You’re beautiful in every single form, Darling. Don’t ever forget that.”
“But why can’t I shift back?” I whisper.
He shakes his head. He doesn’t have the answer to that. Feeling hopeless, I lower my head, and he cups my face, touching his forehead to mine. “We’ll figure it out; we’ll figure it all out. I promise.”
I look up at him, suddenly realising he was late, and now that I look beyond his gorgeous features, there’s an emotion in his eyes that I can’t read…
“Jayce, why were you late? What happened?” I whisper.
“It’s… nothing for you to worry about,” he murmurs. I want to argue, but when he places his lips against my forehead, I realise he doesn’t want to talk about it, and I’ll respect that.
“Jayce…” I murmur.
“Yeah?”
“Take me home.”
The Taste ofHer
Jayce
“Do you want to talk to your mom about it?” I ask her softly, even if all I want to do is obey that request of hers.
“Not tonight,” she whispers, her hands running up my thighs.
Damn...
Seeing her like this, I don’t need to be told a second time. I tug her close, placing a slow, deliberate kiss on her lips, enough to give her a taste but leave her wanting far more. Pulling away, I stand up, slipping on my shoes as she whispers a spell and passes me a now clean shirt.
“That’s neat.”
“I have a lot of neat tricks I can show you.” She smiles, and even that statement makes my dick twitch.
I cup the back of her neck. “I look forward to it.” I place my jacket around her. In her demon form, she’s already more of a distraction. Now I just need to have enough control to get us out of here because she’s having an effect on me, too.
The second thedoor to my room clicks shut behind us, she grabs me by the shirt and crashes her lips to mine as if she’s been waiting to do that all night. Her nails tear through my shirt, and I smirk against her lips. She’s fucking sexy. I don’t waste a moment, turning us and pressing her up against the wall, one hand braced beside her head. I lock the door with the other before cupping the side of her neck. My control slips, the hunger in me wanting to take control, wanting to strip her naked, and taste every inch of her sinful skin.
Her plump lips are soft, and she tastes like heaven and sin combined. I deepen the kiss, devouring her, my tongue dominating hers, drawing a moan from her.
She’s mine, my mate.
I kiss her slowly, sensually, yet every caress promising what this mouth will do to her, what this tongue will do to her.
She pulls back just enough to look at me with her red eyes, smouldering like embers; that look in her eyes is one saved just for me. She shrugs my jacket off slowly, the movement deliberate, teasing before she tosses it aside, and fuck do I love the view so fucking much, and I can finally appreciate it.
“Fucking beautiful…” I murmur, brushing my knuckles down over her right breast, her heart hammers, the smell of her arousal filling my nose, and my eyes flash. I cup her face again, kissing her rougher now, my hand sliding beneath her mesh top, feeling the heat of her bare, flawless skin against my palm.
Her hands are on me, yanking my shirt up, nails grazing myskin, and I break the kiss to help her rip it off. It falls to the ground, and I don’t waste a second. I grab her by the ass, lifting her. Her legs wrap around my waist like they belong there, and she locks her arms around my neck.
Our bodies grind together, skin to skin, chest to chest, lips to lips…
These feelings, kissing someone, touching someone you love… it’s unmatched.
My cock is aching inside my jeans, painfully hard and begging for her. I can feel the slick heat between her thighs through that tiny strip of fabric she calls underwear, and I nearly lose it right there.
I growl low in her ear, the sound guttural and raw, lifting her skirt to her hips and gripping her ass in both hands so she can press her core flush against my abs.
I glance in the mirror to the side. The sight of her wearing nothing but that barely there G-string under that short, little skirt is fucking lethal. I run my hand over her ass, kneading her skin.
