Kindle Notes & Highlights
For thousands of years, his family had kept him away from his home… his land. Bastards. “And I thought my family tragedy was bad,”
“You are the first being in a thousand years to be able to touch the Shadow Realm,” he told me in his deeper-than-should-be-possible voice. “I don’t know how or why… You’re like nothing I’ve ever found in my lifetime, and I don’t know what to make of you.”
Fuck!” he said in snap. “Len, you idiot.” “What is it?” I got out, fear choking my voice. He growled, his entire chest rumbling. “It’s the Faerie lunar moon. Their five moons will converge into one, and upon this land, the time of fertility will begin.”
“You will get no relief from your own touch,” he finally said, and then he was under the water with me.
“You need me or you won’t make it through tonight,” he said roughly. That caught my attention through the haze in my head. “What do you mean?” Eyes as red as the lava that had been outside the window met mine. Not just met but locked on to and claimed. “You know exactly what I’m saying, Sunshine. You cannot handle the entire song… It will get worse.”
he sank down on his knees before me, and I gasped as he came as close as he could. “I will help you. For this one day only.”
“You will hate me tomorrow,” he said, “but I can live with that. What I don’t want to see is you suffering when I can stop it.”
“I’m not drugged,” I reminded him, words getting hard through the throbbing in my body. “My mind is clear. My vagina, on the other hand, is not a happy camper.” With those words, the ache in my pussy increased to the point my hands were heading that way again. Shadow caught them in both of his as a slow grin tilted up his lips. “Let’s make her happy then.”
“No, this is about you tonight, Sunshine. Let me do what I do best.”
Shadow had given me more orgasms in one night than I’d had in my entire life.
The sound of his deep voice did something to me that I’d never experienced before. My body surged to life, every cell, synapse, and receptor standing to attention, as if their master had arrived. No! Stand down, you disloyal bitch.
I’d always been a sucker for tattoos on men, especially when they were ripped as fuck with ink across their entire backs. I was shallow like that.
“I could scent your arousal anywhere now, Sunshine.”
“Just don’t expect me to start kissing your ass,” I muttered. “You’re still the enemy.” This time it was an actual grin, wicked and tantalizing. “Oh, yeah, Sunshine. You’ve made that very obvious. Except last night when you were screaming my fucking name.”
Dudes and sex were great and all, but if you’d never had a ride-or-die bestie, you were missing out on a connection that couldn’t be replicated. One we needed for survival.
I was on Team Mera, and I’d be doing whatever the fuck was best for me. Gotta love yourselves first, ladies.
Because they saw the truth of what was happening here. There was a new terror waiting in the wings for Shadow. A terror he’d never seen coming. Me.
