Grey's POVMating season is a goddamn curse. Prior to Elodie, it was an annoyance. Now, it was a plague. There wasn't a single moment since it began that I didn't think about her bent over or on her knees, crying out or pleading for more, and it left me throbbing at the most inappropriate of times.
MERRY CHRISTMAS To the readers finding this the day it was published
"What about your friend?""That's all he is...doesn't exactly lust after the same things you do..." His eyes narrowed before he understood. "I-""Forget it, Grey." He nodded, kissing me again. But his hands were not considerate of my dress or my skin as he pulled at both with enough force to ruin t
Elodie's POV He dove into me, his nose nudging the apex of my sacred cleft, as he wrapped his lips around my bundle of nerves. Lifting my legs on either side of his shoulders, I was already arching my back to the single sucking motion he made in a few seconds. It became quick and died down before h
He altered from one side of my chest to the other as our speed together slowly increased. As swat came between us and our names became the only sound aside from that made from our bodies bound this way, he pressed his head to mine. "Guide me how you want me...how you like..." I begged breathlessly
Grey's POV I never understood the term 'on cloud nine' before walking out of that office with her scent still all over me and mine left on her. The sound of her heart still racing in her chest was a sense of pride as I had no intention of leaving her for long. I traveled quickly to the bar, almost
"Alden!" "Greydon? What is it?" "She was shot! I can't heal her, it isn't working! Why the fuck isn't it working! Her pulse is so quiet...what is happening?" "Calm down, where are you?" I gave the address, never releasing my pressure on her stomach. "You're too far from me. Come to the catacombs
Elodie's POV My consciousness was as stable as a feather to the wind. Unable to resist either the pull or the plunge, I was taken to and from a state of reality and back to that darkness I feared would be that final, fatal slip. Each time, I found silent relief to know that Grey remained nearby as
Grey's POV “I had this entire plan to go to dinner and then the boardwalk. I’d even rehearsed what to say at least a thousand times today…But I realized that when you’ve lived through what we have, the promises were already there. To me, a ring a no ring, yes or a no, my heart is and always will be
Elodie's POV SIX MONTHS LATER I'd already been waiting three hours after his meeting and my patience was too thin to test. He'd been acting shifty all day, almost as if he was hiding something. In fact, I knew he had been with the way he shuffled away from me whenever I tried to look at the screen
"I swear to God if I survive this I am going to become a demanding girlfriend." I grinned at the title she gave herself that I loved hearing, even in anger. Maybe even more so. "I will do everything with a smile. Now please, baby, you have to go." She sighed before standing. Leaning over me with a
Grey's POV I wasn't lying when I told her it was a risk. Not only to dance with death but in the return. Knowing if I were to wake as a human that it would be without the strength needed to protect her from the elements now out of my control, I felt more vulnerable than being formerly encaged in si
"It was a risk, but I had a feeling it would pay off to bet on you.""What are talking about?""Kinsey explained how she was able to become a human after I killed her the first time. Tied to Aslan's line, he gave his life as Alden had done for you. Since you were the one to kill me...I was able to c
Elodie's POVI never wanted to be one of those girls dependent on anyone. But losing someone like Grey Alluna was as if the sky no longer held stars, the gravity was purposeful but hollow in my heart and my head, and the oxygen I was forced to take was more painful than needed. I took mindless step
"Now, I'm giving you your punishment." I came down on her as I had done over a decade ago, teeth sinking into her neck, as she whimpered beneath me. When she would awaken again, it would be in a transition once again. Born a wolf, she never had to feel that painful shift between human and beast, the
Grey's POV It wasn't the abrupt silence of the crowd or the taste of the blood fading from my tongue that returned me to my humanity. It wasn't even the pull of her pleas dragging that part of me to the surface in a painful lurch. It was the sound of her heart accepting death without regret. The wa
"You smell so sweet." His voice had even changed. Where a smokiness existed behind some words now came a thick brutality. It was almost demonic. "How I've never fed on you before is a wonder I won't force myself to take for much longer. But I like a chase..." He released me with my broken hand and
