Loving a Vampire Is Total Chaos (Total Chaos, #1)

“I think...” His humerus bone snaps under my shoe. “...that I don’t want a filthy creature like you...” His fingers crunch with ease in my hand. “...touching what belongs to me.”

Celine might not know she’s mine, but she will soon enough, and I don’t need human trash like this guy thinking they have a chance with a creature as ethereal as she is.

He grabs my finger so quickly I can barely react and nips at it. I try to pull away, but he refuses to let go. “Lockwood. Zavier Lockwood. L-O-C-K-W-O-O-D. Why aren’t you writing this down? It’s going to be your last name one day, too.” His grin is downright wicked.

Celine. My mate. This can’t be the end. She doesn’t know how big of a dick I have yet. I’m going to die and she doesn’t even know. This is the worst.

“Ready to go, my little wet kitten?” Zavier asks from where he watches next to me. “Strike that nickname off your list.” I fiddle with the vent so warm air blasts me in the face. “Would you prefer sweet cheeks? Or honey bun? Or pudding pop?” He purses his lips in thought. “Oh, I know, pookie.”

Valen hesitates before taking it and then his eyes go wide. “I wondered,” he whispers on a gasp. “But it is you.” Ava scrunches her nose. “Huh? What?” Valen takes her in like he’s seeing the sun rise for the first time. The next words out of his mouth shock us all. “You’re my mate.”
