He’s apparently a Leo and is also a ruthless grader, cold and unfeeling, which they seemed to see as a challenge … and a turn-on.
I shiver. “A-are you going to b-bite me?” “No.” He pulls his face back an inch and sneers. Then he takes a lock of my hair and curls it between his thumb and forefinger. “A vampire is driven by scent. I only eat things I desire. And you, little pyromaniac …” He runs his nose over my hair and inhales deeply, and my stomach does a full somersault. “You stink.”
When she walked into my room earlier, the beast inside me wanted to rip out her throat and feast on her until there was nothing left. But at the same time, her presence soothed him, turning him into little more than a purring kitten.
“You’re really that threatened by a toy?” He grabs the hair at the nape of my neck and pulls me toward him, squishing my boobs against his hard chest. “No, Cupcake, I am not threatened by anything. But we are the only place where you will find your pleasure from here on out.” He licks a path along my jawbone, making me shiver. “Do I make myself clear?”
“You’ll always be my sweet girl, Ophelia. And I’m sorry, baby. I would never hurt you—” “But you did hurt me, Malachi,” I remind him. He presses his lips together and nods before drawing a deep breath. “Then let me show you how sorry I am, baby. Please.” Inhaling deeply, he runs his nose down my throat to my collarbone.
Dude, he’s the only one I really feel comfortable reading sexy scenes with right now cuz it actually feels like he and Ophelia have a connection. Axl and Xavier still feel cold and purely physical 😳
“Hi, baby.” I take her backpack from her and shrug it onto my right arm, slinging my left one over her shoulder. “Did you have a good day?” “I did actually. Did you get some sleep?” “A solid seven hours. So I’m good to go all night.” Her breath catches in her throat, making me laugh. I run my nose over her jawline. Fuck me, she smells so good that I’m tempted to bite her right now in front of all these people. Bite her, then throw her up against the nearest tree and sink my dick inside her. “I’ll take it easy on you, sweet girl,” I assure her.
“We can’t take too much blood. It’s impossible.” Her frown deepens, and that cute spot between her eyebrows pinches together. “Why impossible?” I lean closer and she shivers. “It’s evolution, baby. Once we bite you, we’re incapable of harming you, and that includes taking too much blood.”
I stumble backward, dropping into the chair again, unable to stop the tears racing down my cheeks. Axl presses my knuckles to his lips. Xavier crouches beside me and tucks my hair behind my ear. “Don’t cry, Cupcake. You’re killing me. Don’t you want to stay with us? We sure as fuck want to keep you.”
Her eyes snap open and she blinks rapidly. “You love me?” Xavier snorts a laugh. “Understatement,” he mutters. Does she really not know that? Can she not feel it every day? We’ve never said it, but vampires are so driven by emotion and base instinct that we often let our actions speak for themselves. Clearly we failed her by not realizing she needed the words. “We’re bonded for life, sweet girl. I don’t even think love is enough to describe this.”
Dude, what actions?? The love and affection from Axl and Xavier is still super sudden and doesn’t feel strongly based. They don’t really even know each other
Then she holds up her copy of Twilight. “I wasn’t kidding when I said I brought a friend. For as long as I can remember, I’ve never stayed anywhere long enough to connect with people. I had twenty-six foster placements in total and half as many schools. It was hard to make friends, so I read a lot. Stories became my escape. I figured I didn’t need actual friends when I could be best friends with a hobbit. It didn’t matter where I lived when I could curl up in my bed in Hogwarts or visit Victorian England. Books have always been my only constant.” Oh fuck me, my heart just cracked in two. I

If Axl weren’t growling in my head, threatening to throw me over his shoulder if I didn’t leave of my own accord, I probably would have stayed longer. You’re incredibly possessive for someone who’s known me for a matter of months, Axl Thorne, I snap as I step onto the sidewalk outside the Silver Vale house. You haven’t seen possessive, princess. You are mine, and you will get your sexy ass home before I walk in there and spank it in front of all your new witch friends. I roll my eyes. I’m already on my way.
Xavier cups my face in his hand. “How many days, Cupcake?” “What?” He runs his nose along my cheekbone. “How many days does your period usually last?” “Four,” I croak. Oh my god. Xavier chuckles. “This is like Christmas every month for us.” I shake my head. “It’s …” I can’t think of the word, but disgusting comes pretty close. “It’s blood, sweet girl. Whether we drink it from your veins or your pussy, it’s the same thing.” Axl lifts his head. “It tastes a hundred percent better from her pussy.”
Xavier nuzzles our girl’s neck. “Do you wear tampons, Cupcake?” Her already pink cheeks turn red. “Yes. Why?” He licks his lips. “I’m gonna need them when you’re done.” Her nose wrinkles in disgust. “Eww. No.” I suppress a dark laugh when he nods. “Yeah. I’m gonna freeze them and suck on ’em like popsicles.”
He’s messing with me, and I’m playing right into his hands. “That’s okay. You kind of ruined the mood anyway.” His eyes flash with something dark and dangerous. “I did what now?” I put a hand on my hip. “You heard me. I’m not in the mood now.” He sniffs the air and growls. “Sure seems like you are, princess.” I know I’m going to regret this, but I can’t help it. “Well, that was all for Xavier and Malachi. Not for you.” His eyes narrow, and he snakes one arm around my waist, crushing me against his chest. A warning growl rumbles out of him. “Is that so?” My knees threaten to buckle, but I force

“I’m sorry I’m so heavy,” she says. “You weigh next to nothing.” “You’re breathing kind of heavy.” That is because I am waging war against all my instincts. Every ounce of restraint I possess has been enlisted to prevent me from taking you right here. To sink inside you in all the ways there are and make you scream your proclamation to the entire world that you are mine. I keep all of that to myself, but I do give her another truth. “I am still working hard to suppress my anger at your stupidity, Ophelia.”
Oh dear god! Please don’t make a scene. Too late. Xavier walks along the row of seats and grabs hold of the girl who made the snarky comment by her jaw. He squeezes so hard that her eyes bug out. “If you ever even look at my girl wrong again, I will peel off your skin and make your friend here wear it as a coat. You catch my drift?”
You want a second one in there, baby? Malachi taunts, pulling his finger out. Xavier answers for me. Yeah she does. His hand joins Malachi’s, and they both slide a thick finger inside me. I drop my head back onto Axl’s shoulder. Good little Pyro, letting us finger-fuck you in class.
Malachi is rubbing my clit while Axl and Xavier move their fingers in unison. I try to clamp my thighs together to stop their teasing, but that only makes Axl spread my thighs even wider than before. Both Malachi and Xavier grip my thighs with their free hands and hold me open while Axl keeps one arm banded tightly around my waist. I swallow a whimper. Please let me come. But you look so pretty when you’re on the edge, Cupcake. Squeezing my fingers with your tight little cunt. Oh god! And who does this tight little pussy belong to, princess? Axl drives in harder. Tell us and we might let you
