Excerpt
Melissa
I’m trapped beneath him,
tears filling my eyes, uncertain what all of this means or what happens now. He
saw what I am, but he didn’t pull away. He held me down, watching me writhe in
agony and desire, as if he knew what was coming.
Oh, god. A wave of dread
tightens my stomach at the thought. He knew what was coming. He knows what I
am.
His head is down on his
forearm, but he’s still inside me. I wait until he finally lifts it, again
looking straight into my eyes. He’s so beautifully mouth-watering. Sweat
mingles with the rain on his cheek, and a little drop runs down into his beard.
Without having to see, I
know my eyes darken. A whimper escapes my chest as the irresistible hunger
burns in my throat.
His brow lowers. “You want
to drink me?”
My eyes squeeze closed as a
flood of fresh tears fills them, spilling out of the corners and down my
cheeks. I take a shuddering breath, unable to deny the truth.
“Can you control it?” His
voice has changed. The anger is replaced by curiosity.
Opening my eyes slowly, I
study his expression, still stern, trying to understand. I don’t answer. I only
watch him, my hunger aching in my gums.
His steel eyes hold mine
with such determination. “Do what you have to do, but only for a moment.”
I’m confused by his
permission, but I’m too weak to resist him. His grip on my wrists relaxes, and
I slowly lift my hands to his broad, muscled shoulders, holding his eyes with
mine as I carefully rise to lick the little bead of sweat off his cheek.
A noise rumbles in his
throat, and inside me his erection returns. My breath picks up as the flavor of
him spreads through my mouth. Rising higher, I press my nose against his heated
skin, inhaling fresh rainwater mixed with his delicious woodsy man-scent.
I’m on fire. My moan is
matched by his low growl as I trace my tongue along the line of his jaw to the
ridge of muscle in his neck. I’m acting by instinct, grazing my razor-sharp
teeth lightly across his skin, touching him gently with my tongue. His hips
begin to move, thrusting again, and I feel the muscles in his shoulders
tightening as his orgasm builds.
At last I’ve found it—the
place from before, the little pin pricks. Like before, it’s so easy, a knife in
warm butter. I penetrate him, and the hot, thick warmth of his life spills into
my mouth.
Instantly, we’re plunged
into that orgasmic plane, tumbling down the rabbit hole, lost in a whirlpool of
giving and taking inexorable ecstasy.
“Fuck!” He groans as he
comes inside me, pulsing long and hard, over and over.
My eyes are closed, my mouth
attached firmly to his skin as I drown in the tsunami of pleasure, life flowing
into me from all sides.
It’s harder to stop this
time. I want more of him, more and more of this. He seems unable to pull away
as well. He’s still in me, throbbing and gripping my hips so hard, I think
they’ll break.
I might have kept going. I
might have… but a beacon of light cuts through the quick thud of his heart
beating strong in his chest.
STOP! The voice I recognize
as mine echoes through my transformed state. It reminds me what I want. I want
this man to live. I don’t want to drain his life and doom myself to living
alone as a monster. I want to live with him in the light.
It takes all the strength I
possess to pull out. I break my seal with a moan of regret, licking my lips to
be sure none of him is wasted.
Dropping my head back onto
the bed, I close my eyes to savor the sensation of him swirling inside me. Derek…
so strong… my fighter… my hunter…
Only like before, the
strange, foreign element is back. It burns longer this time before ultimately
disappearing into my bloodstream.
