Marabella POVI wanted to be the dominating one while still having him give me what I needed to sate the craving inside. It was an incurable ache inside me, and it made me ride him harder and harder.“That’s a female’s heat,” Jayden bit out as he thrust inside me.I frowned down at him, my claws extended, digging into his flesh. Blood dripped down his pecs, but the sight had my pussy clenching around him. I leaned down and kissed his mouth, making sure my canines brushed his lip.He groaned as they pierced his skinsI wanted to be the dominating one while still having him give me what I needed to sate the craving inside. It was an incurable ache inside me, and it made me ride him harder and harder.. The copper taste of his blood moved between our mouths as I slid my tongue along his. It made the heat in me tingle along my skin.“How do I stop it?” I breathed out, my pants harsh in the silence. My body had a slick sheen of sweat, burning with pleasure and fire as Jayden and I met thrus
Marabella POV We were safe.For now.The vampires had circled back, or at least that’s what my magic told me. They had lost our scent, just like Jayden had said they would.As soon as I put the border on the cave entrance, they started scattering through the trees, looking for us in all directions. It was a while later when they finally gave up. I felt them leave and finally took a deep enough breath.Jayden had reset my shoulder, popping it back into place with a sickening crunch. Now it just ached, but I could handle that. Everything ached, and had for days, so I was used to it.I sat against the cave wall in the dark, rubbing the burns on my wrists from the handcuffs. They æwere fading before my eyes.“You’re healing?” Jayden checked.I nodded, using my wolf eyes to see him. I showed him my wrists as he sat down next to me.He grabbed them and rubbed over the newly smooth skin. Then he kissed it. I sighed and leaned my head against the cave wall. His touch reached inside me so far
Marabella POV Too late. I turned my body mid-air, gasping when I saw Jayden passed out on the grass.He hadn’t turned.Fuck.I smashed into the ground, taking the brunt of the fall on my shoulder. I heard the pop before I felt it.It fucking hurt.I tumbled over the ground, my shoulder the pivot point, before crashing onto my stomach. I groaned as I rolled onto my back, holding my limp shoulder. I couldn’t feel my arm properly, and pain streaked across my collarbone and chest where it pulled.“Jayden,” I said through my clenched jaw as I looked over at his still body. It was moving, which meant he was still breathing. But there was no way I could carry his big ass body as we ran from the vamps.The vampires were bashing at my magical border against the windows. It was slowly wearing me down, especially since all I could feel was pain. So much aching and heaviness in me. It almost had me blacking out, but I refused to let it.I yanked on my shadows, and they helped me shuffle over to
Marabella POVMy shadows disappeared into the room with the window.I looked to either side of the hall, then moved through the dark. I kept my eyes trained ahead of me, refusing to look at Jayden. I didn’t want to risk the heat taking back control.Jayden stayed behind me, keeping close enough in case anything happened but far enough to keep our scents from triggering the mating link and the heat. It was so much more powerful than the other heats.I wasn’t sure whether that was because I now had three mates or because I had turned, but whatever the reason, it was super inconvenient.I went into the room with the window. It was ajar slightly, with a clear view of the black sky. Jayden moved behind me and slid the window up, looking out and down.“A cliff and a drop? Are you serious? That’s too high; you’ll break every bone,” Jayden growled.“Shh,” I snapped back, my magic flaring as vampires started moving around. They were filtering back into the castle, and my heart raced faster tha
Marabella POV “We should stop,” I said breathily as Jayden’s mouth traced down the lines of my neck.Jayden nodded, grunting as he ground his hips against me.“Seriously, Jayden, we have to get out of here,” I said before meeting his mouth, kissing him as feverishly as he kissed me.I was making no move to stop either. My body was on fire, begging me to sate it, begging me to rip Jayden’s clothes off, to mate. I wanted to give in so badly.The taste of him was intoxicating; it had my head spinning, and I was lost in it.I moaned against his tongue as he palmed my breasts.“One more kiss,” he mouthed against me. I knew he didn’t mean it by the way he dragged his hand down my body, squeezing my ass as I rocked against his hard cock that was pressing against my center.“Just one,” I gasped out, my whispers in the silence making the noises harsher than I intended.“Or two,” he said, kissing me again.“We have to get out of here,” I said, running my fingers through his dark hair, my finge
Marabella POV Jayden opened the door for me, yanking it off the hinges and throwing it to the floor.His eyes were pulsing red as if he was struggling as much as I was. He probably was. Not that I could tell.Every link I had—the pack and the mating links—was all clouded in power, shadow, and lust. It was heady, intoxicating, and almost took me down.My body was healing, but it was still weak. There was a lot to heal, and I needed rest. Proper rest. But that had to wait, which meant I was struggling to take consistent breaths through the weight in my body.Jayden urged me along the concrete corridor, grabbing a wall torch and directing me to the end of the hall. We passed all the other cells, ignoring all of the groaning that came from inside them.I considered helping them get out too, but it would make an already dangerous escape even more so.“Don’t. Silas is an expert at mind games. Any one of these could be a vampire trap waiting to alert him that we are escaping. We can’t get c
