"Maybe," Joshua replied, his dark eyes glittering with something akin to hope. "But we'll use it against them."
The compulsion that had been driving them both began to fade, replaced by a raw, primal need for each other that went beyond any chemical bond. Keri felt alive and powerful in Joshua's arms. She no longer felt the desperate craving. It seemed false now. This new feeling. This was real. She wanted him again – this time for herself, not because some twisted fate dictated it.
"Kiss me again,” she demanded.
Joshua wasted no time, his lips crashing down on hers in a fierce, hot kiss that left her breathless.
"I love the taste of you," he growled, nipping at her lip before moving down her neck to claim the sensitive skin beneath her ear.
"I can't get enough of you," she confessed, her voice shaking with need. As his mouth moved lower, tracing the curve of her collarbone, she felt a surge of power coursing through her veins.
"Together, we will be unstoppable," Joshua promised. He unbuttoned her blouse and kissed a path down her chest, trailing open-mouthed kisses over her bra before finally pulling it up to reveal her breasts.
Keri moaned her approval, her fingers wrapping in his hair as he took one of her nipples into his mouth, sucking and tugging until it was hard and aching.
"Yes," she hissed, arching into his touch. "More."
He obliged, his fingers replacing his mouth as he rolled her nipple between them, eliciting a soft gasp from her.
"You're so perfect," he murmured, his voice thick with desire as he continued to tease her sensitive flesh.
"Joshua," she breathed, her body tensing with anticipation. "You're driving me mad."
He chuckled darkly, the vibrations sending shivers down her spine. "Then let's see where this madness takes us."
And this time, it felt like a key was turning in a lock. The intensity of their coupling was a revelation, and Keri reveled in every second of it.
"Harder, Joshua," she demanded, breathless. He thrust deeper into her, eliciting a gasp that morphed into a moan. As wave after wave of ecstasy washed over her, Keri spiraled towards a pinnacle she'd never reached before – a summit of pure, unadulterated bliss.
"I'm so close," she choked out, feeling the world shift beneath her as her climax approached.
"Come for me, Mate," he urged, his voice hoarse and ragged. "Let go."
And she did, surrendering herself to the current of pure, untempered pleasure. Joshua followed her over the edge, their bodies shuddering in tandem as they reached the apex of their passion.
As they stood there, still entwined against the cell wall, reality began to reassert itself with cruel clarity. The swirling storm of emotions within Keri began to settle, leaving a tangled mess of exhilaration, confusion, and dread in its wake.
"Fuck," she whispered, her voice trembling. "What have we done?"
"Something neither of us expected," Joshua murmured against her skin, his breath warm and comforting even as the dawning realization of their new bond sent tendrils of unease through her.
"Are we truly bound together now?"
"Oh yes.”
"Well, this is going to be interesting.”
He snorted. “You have a talent for understating.”
“I should put my pants on.”
“You should, but if circumstances were different, you’d be naked in my bed for quite some time.”
She shivered, wondering how she could want him again. “Then let’s get out of here sooner rather than later.”
Chapter 4
SHE TRIED TO STAY AWAKE, but the stress of the past day and the colossal rush of endorphins hit her like a brick to the face. She had climbed into Joshua’s lap and fell asleep, cradled in his strong arms.
