“Seff...”

“You are all of those things, especially worthy.”

I didn’t bother trying to argue. I couldn’t argue with his lips moving the length of my neck, kissing, nipping, and sucking. The anticipation of his fangs scraping along my skin made my entire body flush with heat. Every muscle in my body seemed to swell and tighten with each touch of his lips and sweep of his long hair over my flesh.

“Turn over.”

I did.

“Teacher.” His fingertip smoothed over my upper arm. He moved down the outside of left my forearm. “Provider.” Then last, tracing a word in big loopy swirls from the bottom swell of my breast along down my side to the top of my hip. “Lover.”

I strained to sit up and see the word he traced so gently. “I didn’t know. I mean, I approved the design but the only things I really looked for wereArteismaandNereida.” I lay back and smiled. “I want to add one more.” I pointed to the empty heart above my breast. “Your name, here.”

“You betcha. And what about another word?” He traced a finger over my abdomen. “Sakana.”

“Absolutely.”

He smoothed his hand up my waist to cup my breast. “Kindra wasn’t lyin’. Your breasts are perfect.”

Seff closed over my nipple. I gasped as his low moan vibrated throughout my entire body. I brushed his long hair back and out of my way. I didn’t have to ask if he enjoyed everything he did to me while we made love—I felt it throughout our bond. He savored my breasts like a sweet dessert. Helovedgoing slow—drawing out and prolonging my—our—mutual pleasure.

And I loved it, too. More than I ever dreamed I would.

“So, I was wondering,” he whispered against my nipple. “When this male, Xavier, was applying ink...” He paused. His dark eyes flashed to meet mine, and I felt a tiny ripple of jealousy through our bond.

“Yes?”

“Were you lying out in the open, all naked, where any other customer could see you?”

I pulled a funny face, curling my lip as though I had to think back to remember.

The deep furrow in his brow came back. “Des?”

“Well, I was lying naked, but never out in the open.” I grinned and shook my head. “We were in a private room. Xavier was always very discreet. Except for the area he was working on, he always kept me covered with a sheet.”

“Thank fuck,” he growled. “I didn’t want to mess up your friendship by tearing Xavier’s face off when we meet up.”

“When you meet up?”

“Yeah, when we meet up formyink.”

“Really?”

He nodded. “Yep.”

“When did you decide to get a tattoo?”

“The first time I saw yours. Never really cared for ink on a female before. Never seen a white tattoo before, either. But I sure as hell love seeing this ink on your sweet skin.” His hand drifted down along my side, pulling my leg up over his leg. “Still, I’ll have to think on it for a bit. I’m not sure what I want, other than your name and the twins’ names.”

A swooping sensation clenched my stomach as doubt crept through my veins.

“Desarae, we’re gonna fight for them. My uncle Ralph already said he’ll stand up for us at the tribunal.”

I’d forgotten we wouldn’t fight alone. We had family behind us. A family that loved the twins and us.

I sucked in a calming breath before speaking, “So, where do you plan to have our names inked into your skin?”

“Well, it’s gotta be somewhere with lots of room.”
