“Anythin’,” I told him as I removed my fingers and lined up my cock. Slowly, I pushed inside his tightness.

Christ, he was so fucking snug around me, I was going to lose myself too soon.

Our kisses grew from slow to hard and heavy and so much more as I carefully filled him.

My hands found him, gripping his ass, needing him closer. Yet I still took my time, not wanting to hurt him.

Soren shifted, his mouth trailing from my lips to my jaw, then lower. His breath ghosted over my throat before his lips pressed there, lingering.

My pulse jumped, and I groaned as I pushed all the way in. “Soren.”

He wrapped his arm around me, and when his fangs pierced my skin, the sharp sting made me gasp, but it didn’t hurt the way I expected, soon turning to something more.

My body was shocked awake, and every nerve produced arousal. I groaned again, withdrawing to thrust back in.

Something pulled, and not just Soren taking my blood, but something deeper. Something that made my chest tighten and my breath catch as a strange hum built beneath my ribs.

Soren groaned softly against my neck, the sound sending a shiver through me.

I felt him.

Not just physically, but inside, right in the center of my chest, wrapping around my heart.

His emotions hit me next, soft but still raw and intense.

I cupped the back of his neck, holding on, as the connection deepened. When I did, the hum grew stronger, settling around my heart like it was holding it, protecting it.

“Soren…,” I breathed.

His fangs slipped from me, and he licked over his bite. He pulled back slightly, just enough to look at me. His eyes were darker now, something in them changed.

“You feel it,” he said quietly.

I nodded, my chest rising and falling too fast. “Yeah.”

He brushed his thumb over my cheek. “That’s me and you. It’s what Fate has gifted us.”

The bond.

I swallowed, trying to steady myself as the sensation settled into a low, steady awareness of him that hadn’t been there before.

“I can feel you,” I said softly. “I mean, I felt you before but, hell, this is so much more.”

“It is,” he murmured with a satisfied smile. “Now, fuck me, pet. I want your cum warming inside me like your blood is.”

With a growl, I claimed his mouth in a wild kiss as I thrust into him over and over. He wrapped his legs around my waist, letting me take control.

“Fuck,” I groaned against him as I went up onto my palms, hovering over him and watching my dick disappearing inside him and reappearing. “You feel so good, baby.”

“So do you, pet. The best.”

Everything felt heightened.

Every touch and breath.

The bond thrummed softly in my chest, reacting to him—his emotions, pure joy mixed with a heady amount of arousal, and the need he felt for me.

“Close, baby,” I warned.
