It would be the coming together of two lonely, wounded souls, in the way he’d always longed for. With his mate. With her.
“Go. Run. Hide.” He lifted his face and met her gaze. “I will find you, my moonlight. I will catch you. And when I do, I will fuck you with a savagery that will unmake you. You will beg me to put you back together. To give you more.”
“Eternity is not time enough to worship you.”
“Beneath the light of moon and stars,” he said, “I claim you. You are mine
Fuck. He’d learned the word from Kinsley, who had cried it out many times as he’d claimed her. What a versatile, impactful, arousing word.
“We both need to let it go and live for the future. One that we can have together.”
“I know not how long I’ve been here, Kinsley, but I’ve not lived until you.”
“You are my mate,” he whispered, brushing his lips over hers as he pulled his hips back. He slowly pumped into her again. “You are my soul.”
“You are the air I breathe.” He kissed the other corner. “You are the water that slakes my thirst and the food that nourishes me. You are the trees that bless me with
shade and shelter”—he kissed the center of her lips—“and the sky through which I soar.”
“Vex… My darkness. My night sky.”
“You are the song in my heart. The melody of my soul. I am yours.”
“What we share, my Kinsley, cannot be unraveled.”
“My moonlight,” he rasped, brushing his trembling thumb beneath her lip. “I would sooner tear the heart from my chest than hurt you…so that is what I
must do. You will understand with time, my love, that I am choosing you.”
Vex had betrayed her. His mate, his love, his moonlight. His Kinsley. Whatever his intentions, he’d betrayed her. She would carry that pain—the pain he’d caused—forever.
What good is freedom when half of my heart is still imprisoned?”
“Do you hear me, Vex? You’re stuck with me. I’m going to haunt you for all eternity if that’s what it takes.”
“And who knows? Maybe I’ll find my own goblin king someday.” Kinsley chuckled. “I think they might be in short supply.”
“It has been too long since I’ve shown you what you are to me. My queen.” He pressed his lips to the inside of her elbow. “My goddess.” His mouth moved faster, up over her shoulder to her neck, where he rasped, “My everything.”
“My mate, my heart, my love.” He touched his forehead to hers. “You are all the magic I will ever need.”
