Chapter 26
GAELAN
Iwake up when the first moon sets; the time here is different from topside.
We don’t have a sun that rises and sets; we have two moons, one is smaller and light blue.
The descending moon, this is the first one to rise and the first to set.
Then we have a moon that is silver and larger, the cresting moon, which rises and sets twice as often.
The days here are longer; a week is equal to almost a month topside.
I look down at Ari as she sleeps, her body clock is going to take a while to adjust to this new time, not that I want her to leave this bed. I think she thought I was joking last night when I said I would happily feast on her for the rest of my days.
I wasn’t.
Ari’s arm is draped over my stomach, and her legs are tangled in mine. Fuck, I’ve missed this feeling. It wasn’t until last night when we fell asleep that I realized just how much I’ve missed her.
Careful not to wake her, I lift her arm and move my legs so I can climb out of bed. I need to check in with Leah and get everything ready for our day of exploring. I want to take her to our spot, a place that we created just for us a long time ago.
I shimmer into some lounge pants and a tank top before using the door to the left of our bed, which leads to my personal office. No one comes here, as it has all my family history and some of Ari’s.
It features a large oak desk in the center, accompanied by a white leather chair positioned behind it.
I have photos and paintings of my family on display around the room.
The walls are painted black, and the only source of light in here is candlelight.
My main office is on the first floor and is very different from this one.
It’s where I hold my meetings; that one is much more formal with its dark blue and silver interior, to match the rest of my castle.
I walk around my desk and see Ari’s bag of clothes.
Picking it up, remembering how beautiful she looked riding my cock last night, and I wonder how upset she would be if I set fire to her whole bag.
I laugh lightly and place it back down. I then shimmer one of my shirts and a pair of shorts next to Ari, so she has something to put on.
The thought of her wearing my clothes sends a wave of possessiveness through me.
I growl, my cock hardening beneath my sweats.
I shimmered to the main office and put a call out to Leah, sitting at my desk, adjusting myself as my cock is still rock hard.
Giving in to what I really want to be doing—having a taste of my Rose again—will have to wait until later.
I flick through paperwork, waiting until Leah finally shimmers in and bows.
“My lord?”
“Any problems last night?”
She rises to her full height and nods. “We had a few daemons enter by the marsh; they didn’t get very far—the hounds took them out.
Her scent is stretching farther than we thought it would, My Lord.
” Leah sighs, and it worries me that Ari’s power can be sensed in the air; her power emits a sweet scent that all supernaturals can detect.
Deep down, I knew it could be a risk bringing her here, but a risk I was willing to take.
She needs her book so that she can mask that scent.
“Station more guards. I’ll come by the training grounds tomorrow to see where they’re being posted.” She nods. “Also, tell Gurt no one is to cross the river without my knowing, even the villagers. Macy’s mind control has no boundaries.”
Leah nods again and shimmers from the room.
I need to find a way to help Ari locate her book—Kenzie never had it, but Melissa did.
My mind drifts to the last time I saw Mel; she was mad that she couldn’t complete a vanishing spell.
She had the book then, but she went off to find some more ingredients, and it was the last time I saw her and the book.
Maybe there’s a clue to where she went in the box of stuff Ari has.
Standing, I shimmer to the bedroom again and begin to make my way into my private office when I find Ari, still in bed, but the blanket has now moved, and her naked body is on display. Trelor pulses under my skin, begging me for a taste.
“Mine.” I hear him louder this time
“Yes, ours.” I step closer to the bed and lower to breathe in her scent, my eyes rolling back in my head, and I know we must have a taste.
Trelor pushes under my skin, and I let him come forward as I shift into my daemon form.
I roll my shoulders and relax, letting my body begin to move.
My bones click as I grow in height, my skin turns light blue, and my fingers start to grow claws.
Trelor
Breathing in my mate again, my daemon senses grow stronger, and my eyes begin to glow brighter. I lower my head and lick my long-forked tongue over her clit; she whimpers on the bed, making me growl. “Mine.”
I reach out with my claws, gentle so I don’t cut her soft skin, while holding her in place.
I lick my tongue over her clit again, wrapping both sides of my tongue around it and squeezing it tight.
She moans, and her scent gets stronger. I descend lower and push it into her wet core, curling around and using both tips to flutter over the nerves, making her bow off the bed.
I can hear Gaelan in my head telling me to be gentle, telling me to be careful not to wake her, so I don’t scare her.
She is mine. I will do what I want.
He growls again in warning, and I can’t help the evil grin that forms on my face. Gaelan can’t stop me now, unless I let him, and now I have my mate spread out before me; that’s not going to happen. Moving my tongue faster, I feel my mate push her fingers into my hair and pull on it slightly.
“Gaelan,” she moans, making me pause. I lift my head. I see that her eyes are still closed; she’s still asleep, but even in sleep, my mate is so responsive.
Growling against her skin, I want to taste her fully, licking her clit one last time before I thrust my tongue into her cunt again.
I thrust in and out of her fully, my tongue finding the spot I know will make her toes curl.
A daemon tongue is almost as good as a cock—it is long, enabling it to both fuck and lick.
She’s shaking, and I know she’s awake now.
She grinds her pussy against my mouth, and fuck me, it’s beautiful.
Her pussy walls start to tighten right before she comes, her juices rushing out of her body and soaking my face.
I growl as I lap it up, my body shaking with the need to fuck her into oblivion, but unfortunately, that will have to wait.
Giving her sweet cunt one last lick, I pull back, my body shrinking in size, my skin fading from blue and shifting back to Gaelan.
Gaelan
My eyes still hold my daemon glow, because even though it was Trelor who made her come, I still feel the pleasure as if it were my own.
I look up to see Ari looking at me, her face having that fresh ‘I just had the best orgasm’ look.
Grinning, I kiss up her body, paying attention to her nipples, before kissing and sucking my way up to her neck, whispering, “My turn.”
I lift my hand and run my finger over her lower lip. She is frowning at me a little; I know she is wondering what I meant when I said it was my turn. But she will have to wait for that explanation.
“You ready to suck my cock, Ari?” My voice is husky. She licks her lips, and my devil, she is my perfect hell right there. I lean forward and kiss her before moving to kneel on the bed, shimmering off my sweatpants as I go. “You ready, baby?”
“Yes,” she whispers before she leans forward and pulls my cock between her lips, almost deep throating me, my head rolls back, and I groan at the soft feel of her warm mouth.
My hands move to grip her hair, holding her in place as I thrust my cock slowly in just once, just to feel every inch of her.
Then, unable to hold back, I pull back and start to thrust faster.
She gags. Fuck. She is taking as much as I give her.
One of her hands comes up and pulls on my balls before playing with them.
I try to hold back the full power of my thrusts, but she’s driving me close to the edge.
I hear her move, my eyes catching her arm moving, and I look down to see her fingering herself.
“Fuck, Ari.” My eyes are glued to her hands, watching her fingers move in and out.
I see them covered in her come, and I want to taste her again.
I slow my thrusts and pull her hair back so I can see my cock moving in and out of her mouth.
“Give me your fingers, Ari, I want to taste you,” I demand hoarsely.
She moans and lifts her hand as I lower my head and suck off her juices. Groaning at the taste, my hips move faster, back and forth until my orgasm hits me, my cum spilling out, and she swallows every drop.
She pulls my still hard cock from her mouth and smiles up at me. “Gaelan,” she whimpers as she moves, wrapping her arms around my neck and then her legs around my waist, straddling me. I steady her with my hands on her ass.
“So, fucking beautiful, baby.” I lean forward and capture her lips, tasting myself on her. I lift her and I lower her onto my cock, catching her moan with one of my own. I feel how desperately she wants to come again. “I fucking love it when you take control. When you use me like this.”
She leans forward and kisses me as she starts to thrust her hips against mine.
She starts off at a slow pace, but as pleasure begins to coil within her body, she gets faster.
The sound of our bodies coming together and how wet she is hits my ears, causing me to groan and tighten my hands on her ass as she fucks me, taking everything she wants and needs.
I want to take over, to lay her down on the bed and lose myself in her.
But I’ll save that for later; now is for her.
She starts to kiss down my neck, turning her head and biting me, groaning.
I feel her pussy beginning to squeeze tightly around my cock.
Taking over, I grab her hips tighter, then lean forward with one hand bracing on the bed.
While at the same time, my other cradles her tighter, I start thrusting into her harder, deeper.
At this angle, all she can do is take what I am giving her.
Her legs begin to shake, her body soon follows as she breaks apart, her orgasm hitting her.
Unable to hold back, I come with a low growl that rumbles deep in my chest. My cock throbbing in her, filling her.
Ari jerks against me a few times before lifting her head from my neck, both of us collapsing on the bed. I roll to the side, taking her with me so I don’t crush her with my body. “Fuck,” she whispers, making me laugh. “Is it going to be like this every time?”
“Yes… every time.” I kiss the side of her head. “Ready for the tour?”
“Are you going to give me my clothes?”
“No, I sent everyone away.” I grin and laugh at the look on her face.
“You didn’t,” she laughs.
“No, I didn’t, but after that I’m tempted to.” I kiss her quickly and climb out of the bed. “Get dressed and we’ll grab something to eat before we leave.”
