Their feet hit the balcony, and Mina’s body instantly relaxed. As if her life couldn’t get any stranger. She’d been kidnapped from her home, fallen in love with a vampire, and now that vampire had wings.
Stepping back to get a better look at them, she circled him, eyes wide. “So, you can fly whenever you want? Can all vampires do that?”
Erik laughed. “No, it’s a gift I gained from killing the old king. A power I absorbed from his blood.”
“Okay.” She nodded, coming back around to stand in front of him. “How do you make them…”
“Go away?” He chuckled. “The same way I made them appear. Sheer force of will.”
As she stared at the way the light hit their strong muscular structure, Erik groaned, and the wings began to retract, inch by inch until they disappeared back into his shoulders like they’d never existed. He was so strong, and powerful. She couldn’t wrap her mind around the creature standing before her and how he could possibly mean so much to her.
I love you.Three little words that held so much meaning. He’d said the words. He swore he didn’t care if she was Evangeline or not, and he’s said them with such conviction. She believed him.
Biting her lip, she saw the fire burning in his eyes. The same fire that burned in her belly. She extended her hand and exhaled. “Take me to bed, My King.”
He took her hand and brought it to his lips like he had in the great hall. “Anything for you, My Queen.”
A delicious chill ran over her skin, making all the hair along her arms stand tall, and her nipples strain beneath the silk of her dress.
Erik turned, and slowly led her into his bedroom, walking backwards, gracefully managing not to bump into anything along the way. Mina swallowed reflexively. Her body felt alive with unspent energy, like a lightning bolt had been trapped inside her chest.
“Come sit,” he said, gesturing to the bench at the end of the bed. “I’d like to explore the slits in that dress of yours.”
Mina laughed and lowered herself onto the bench in front of him. “Explore away.”
Erik knelt and his warm hands found her ankle, he massaged it and lifted her leg just enough that the fabric of her dress fell away as he removed her shoe.
Mina bit her lip as his hands smoothed over her calf and the lower part of her thigh. He set her foot down, and then repeated the process with the other.
“This dress is dangerous, Starlight. So much skin exposed….” He trailed off, running his hands up her legs again, and over her the tops of her thighs. “You could drive the men of my court wild if I let you wear this for much longer.”
“Then maybe you should take it off me,” she laughed. Never in her life had she been so nervous and felt so brave all at the same time. Erik made her brave, but this was the first time they’d been together like this after saying those words. Those three little words.
“Maybe I will,” he purred, leaning in to kiss her, his fingers gliding even higher up her legs. “But first, I think I want to do this.”
His hand dove beneath the fabric drapped between her legs, and he cupped her wet underthings, pressing his fingers into her sex.
“Hmmmm, so ready for me,” he purred.
“I’ve been ready for you since I read the note you sent with this crown,” she said, letting her head fall back a little.
His fingers hooked around her undergarments, and he pulled it down her legs at an agonizingly slow pace. He set them aside, and then sank back on his knees. “Lean back, Starlight, rest your shoulders on the bed.”
She arched an eyebrow, but did as he said, and to her surprise he flipped the central panel of her dress to the side, and lifted her left leg, hooking it over her his shoulder as he lowered himself down to the apex of her thighs. He drew his tongue over her clit, and Mina groaned, throwing her head back against the bed.
His mouth hummed over her wet flesh and her body shivered, forcing a moan from her lips.“Erik.”
He chuckled against her thigh, and his teeth grazed over her clit as he pulled it between his lips, sucking hard.
Her back arched, and she slid her hands over her chest, desperate for something to hold. Her fingers slid over where her breasts strained against the fabric, and then the fingers of her right hand found their way into his hair.
Relentless in his efforts, he disseminated every thought that could’ve crossed her mind. Spiraling towards her release, her muscles tensed, her toes curled, and as he thrust two fingers inside her, curling them against her inner walls, she exploded.
Ecstasy washed over her from head to toe, and he rose once more, looming over her. “Oh, Starlight. I’ll never get enough of you.”
Sitting up, she took him by the hips, and slid her hands along his belt. “You’ve tasted me, my king, but I have yet to taste you.”
