tattooing them onto him without mercy.
Drops of blood ran down his back, but he didnt even flinch.
Twatched myself in the mirror, drinking the crimson liquid as he licked my nape, right where the mark of his teeth now rested.
And though it wasnt like the wolves, Mia was more than satisfied.
But as my throat swallowed the intoxicating blood and I felt the intimate connection of the bond with my Alpha, something was still missing.
Something was wrong...
he hadnt come yet.
How? After making love like this, how is he still hard inside me? Am I...
not satisfying him as a woman? Fool, he laughed against my ear.
Dont ever think that for a second.
You have no idea how much ve been holding back.
But if yowre so worried, come...
serve yourself.
He responded to my thoughts, pulling out of me, making me sigh as the sudden emptiness hit me.
T turned to see him sitting on the bed, legs bent and spread, hands resting behind him, his hair disheveled, his skin glistening with sweat.
His ethereal eyes seduced me, his lustful expression igniting a challenge in my veins.
T've done all the work so far.
Come, Camilla, your turn to practice.
---- Zareks claim in return.
The side of my neck tingled as his tongue licked me.
"Bite me deep, I need you, drink from my life, loveZarek, bite me!" His fangs pierced me, and my entire world shattered.
I came again, uncontrollably, drowning in the dark pleasure of his mouth drinking my lifes essence while I drank his.
Inside my pussy, his throbbing cock vibrated and exploded in hot, milky streams, filling me until it dripped down onto the sheets.
My hands caressed his back as I licked the wound on his neck, trying to catch my breathbut then I felt something strange.
T opened my eyes in euphoric bliss, only to freeze in horror at the reflection in the mirror.
My name was engraving itself on his back in large, burning red letters, glowing as if each stroke was searing his flesh raw.
Zarek! [ tried to pull away, hissing a little because he was still feeding from me.
I grabbed his hair, cradling him against my neck, feeling him finally withdraw and lick me with care.
Relax, baby, its nothing, sweetheart.
Its just my vampire bond with you, he murmured, but I couldnt stop imagining how painful it must be.
Roses intertwined with every letter, as if an invisible hand were ---- I didnt think twiceI lunged at him, straddling his thighs and kissing him like a madwoman.
Our lips burned, our tongues twisted like snakes.
I reached down, grabbed his cock, and pushed it inside me until I lost all sense.
ahhhhhh! I moaned hoarsely at the pleasure of the deep penetration, riding him without control, rising and falling, sinking my claws into his tense muscles, my thirst for blood growing inside me.
I didnt restrain my vampire sideI let her out, wilder and hornier than ever.
I grabbed his hair as he did to me, forcing him to bare his throat, his weak spot.
And Zarek submitted to me, giving me a satisfaction that filled my chest completely.
1 lowered my mouth, and my sharp fangs sank into the frantic vein at the side of his neck.
Mmmm, so good, I moaned at the tastesweeter and more addictive than anything I had ever known.
I loved it.
I couldnt stop draining him.
His fingers dug into my hips as he knelt on the bed, lifting me, thrusting up into me while I wrapped my legs around his waist.
I clung to his strong body, my mind consumed by madness.
Ancient, unintelligible words filtered into my thoughtsroses and thorns, blood and pleasure.
Camilla hissed and moaned in my head, aroused by the taste of her mates powerful blood, accepting harmonybecause now, they all had something in common.
They all belonged to the Dark Prince of the Vampires.
ad The next day, in the palace hall, the future of both realms would be decidedperhaps they would finally reunite as one once more.
---- But...
but I've never heard of something like this before.
I...
I dont have it, I stammered, looking over myself, seeing only the rose tattoo around my thigh.
But somehow, I felt like that had always been there, Celine, look at me, Celine.
He wrapped an arm around my waist, lifting my chin with his hand.
Darling, this is my promise to you.
Our mate bond is beyond the ordinaryits a life-or-death commitment, but only on my side.
No, no.
Why would you do something like this without telling me? I protested, distressed, pounding against his chest.
Undo it, undo it! No, I wont.
Because if anything ever happened to you, I wouldnt want to keep living, do you understand? Without you, this world has no meaning for me.
He held me tightly, as if trying to fuse me into his chest, his obsessive gaze never leaving mine.
Through our bond, I felt his deep fear of losing meof being left alone again.
His unspoken terror squeezed my soul, making me love him even more.
_Fine, Laccepted, cupping his face, pressing a soft kiss to his lips, still tasting of me.
But only if you do it with me too.
Not just on your side.
Celine...
---- T cant live without you either.
From the moment you stepped into my dreams, you took over my soul and trapped itjust like those chains that once controlled you.
Mark me too with the life-or -death spell.
Its both of us...
or neither.
Tooked into his crimson eyes, more certain of this than anything.
Both alive, or both deadone could not exist without the other.
In the end, ll have to kneel before that damn stop badmouthing the Goddess, I cut him off, covering his mouth in alarm.
I think hes the only being on this earth who dares to speak about her like that.
His sleepy, beautiful eyes stared at me over my palm.
Then his tongue flicked out, licking my hand lasciviously.
Ym going to carve my name into your body, he murmured, his voice deep, wicked, but I havent decided where yet.
I need to explore my female more...
I'll find a place only Ican see.
Before I could respond, he pushed me onto the beda mess of blood and cumwhile an insatiable, aroused vampire lunged at me to devour me again.
I waited for him with my legs open, the lust still pulsing in my belly, the power coursing through my veins.
For the first time in my life, I felt whole.
Satisfied.
The scattered pieces inside me aligned, fitting together in perfect
His thick fur sent shivers through me, his powerful arms tightening around my body, and the spark of desire ignited in my belly.
Maybe I got infected by that weird little thing that was always begging for sex.
"Promises, promises...
I want to see if the consequences will really drive me crazy." "shameless." Seducing each other, we finally arrived at the castle gates, crossing the deep moat via the drawbridge.
"Valeria!" My mothers voice made me look up at the stairs leading to the entrance, and my greeting got stuck in my throat.
"M-Mom? Are you healed?" My joy and excitement didnt last long.
Aldric finally placed me gently on the ground, and I ran to embrace her as she descended, waiting for me with open arms.
"Tts an illusion, my child.
It only works within the castles limits, but dont be sad," she reassured me, holding me back slightly.
I looked into her blue eyes, my own glistening with unshed tears.
" Vale, it doesnt matter.
It doesnt affect me, my love." Always strong, always incredibleshe caressed my cheek with love before asking about the baby
