"Lovers now.” He agrees, eyes sad.

I want to ask him why, but I can’t really remember my own social security number at this point because I never experienceda werewolf tongue, the way it snakes around, finds hidden places, pushes against every place I never knew I needed or wanted. I’m bucking against it before I can repeat the question he asked, wait did he ask a question?

He grips my thighs with his hands and sucks so hard, I feel all my own breath leave my body.

His tongue laps at me like he can’t get enough, and my body continues to give him more and more until I’m shaking.

“I can’t do another, Eli, I can’t.”

“You can.” He smacks my ass.

“You will.”

“But—“

He flips me over onto my knees on the concrete, softly pressing me against the chair and from behind starts licking up my backside while his fingers work the front.

I lean back against him and shiver.

“Maybe, maybe, don’t need…vacation dayzzzz, money…don’t stop!”

He licks back down, his tongue warm, then reaches around and cups me.

“Ride my hand, imagine it’s me and then when you least expect it….”

I start to ride him and he’s right, when I least expect it, he takes me from behind. I grip the chair like it’s my only anchor, only to have it get shoved away as Eli pulls me by the hair and holds me in place.

“I’ve never wanted to bite more.”

"Then do it!” I scream.

“Now!”

He keeps moving inside me.

“No, I won’t do that, not to you.”

"Because I’m human?”

He pulls me back against him, I can feel him finish inside me as he kisses the sides of my neck.

“No. Because you’re precious.”

Confession By Bonfire

ELI

I made her a bonfire. I’ve never made one before in my entire existence, but she said she wanted marshmallows. I had no heart to say no. And it was just sitting there waiting to be used, and I suddenly wanted her to be the first.

I grab a blanket and wrap it around her shoulders outside on the balcony, and sit across from her.

It feels like things just got personal, but I don’t know why. I don’t know what to say to her or what to do, and my reactions are always wrong.

How does a person go about asking another after they’ve already slept together, to be more? To try more? Because that’s what I want, despite knowing what the ramifications could be.

Will be.
