Forever Bound Series 1-4 Part 18

Some would say that she was becoming a monster.

Just like him.

"I know what I'm becoming, but I don't know what will happen to me when-" She broke off and shook her head. Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s pointed up toward him, the nipples tight and hard and a pretty pink.

Want to taste.

His c.o.c.k was so hard that it hurt. He wanted in her.

"I don't care what's going to happen tomorrow. I just care about right now." Her hands dropped to the front of her jeans. They were undone. He'd undone them in his frenzy to repair her wound. "Right now, I want you."

That was all he needed to hear. Before she could say anything else, before he could think of a reason why this was wrong, Cade had her flat on the bed. His body trapped hers, and his mouth tasted one sweet breast. And it was sweet. Sweet and tight and perfect in his mouth.

Perfect.

Her hands slid over his back. He didn't tense when she touched his scars. Didn't try to pull her hands away from the marks he'd always carry.

He just sucked her breast harder. Lapped at her nipple. One, then the other. His hands shoved down her jeans and yanked her panties away.

She wanted him.

He didn't know how the h.e.l.l he'd gotten that miracle, but he wasn't about to turn her away.

In that moment, there wasn't a single force on earth that would have made him leave her.

"You want him dead, witch?" Griggs swiped the blood from his nose as he glared at Elsa. "Kill him your own d.a.m.n self. We're not goin' back. Not facin' that f.u.c.kin' freak again."

Elsa glared at him and his worthless bunch of humans. These were supposed to be hunters? More like whipped puppies. "One man," she snapped. Her hands flattened on the table. Her mirror, the scrying mirror she'd used since her eighteenth birthday, gleamed upon the table's surface. "You let one man defeat all of you?"

"Not a man." Griggs spat blood on the floor. "Werewolf."

"Werewolves can die." Everyone and everything could die.

"You're on your own." Griggs turned away.

Her hands fisted. "I'll double the money!" She was running out of time...and options. Vampires were closing in. They were already in the city. It wouldn't be much longer before they found Allison.

Griggs hesitated. Greedy b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Sometimes, humans could be so predictable. Elsa started to smile.

"That guard dog she's got..." Griggs glanced back over his shoulder and shook his head. "If we go back, he'll kill us all."

She could almost smell his fear. Rancid.

"You're on your f.u.c.king own." He stormed out, taking his men with him. Their thudding footsteps blended with the wild racing of her heart.

No, no, this couldn't be happening. Not to her.

Elsa grabbed her knife. One quick slice over her arm and she had blood dropping onto her mirror. With her index finger, she slid the blood over the mirror's surface as she chanted.

The image came to her, not slow and blurry, but fast and crisp.

Her future hadn't changed.

The full moon hung in the air. Allison stood over her, with her vampire teeth bared. Allison's eyes were wild, and blood dripped down her chin.

Elsa stared at the image. No change. Allison would still kill her in just a few days time. When she changed, when she became fully vampire, Allison would come after her.

"I'll kill you first," Elsa whispered. That's why she'd first sought out Allison. Because of the death vision. She would change that vision.

She had to.

Elsa wasn't planning on dying for some vampire b.i.t.c.h. Allison would be the one to die. She'd be the one to bleed and beg and scream and die.

"Not me," Elsa said as she reached for the knife again.

She just had to find a way to hit the vampire's weakness. Everyone had a weakness, even a pureblood vampire.

You're the one who'll die.

Chapter Five.

Allison's breath heaved out as she stared up at Cade. His arms were on either side of her body, his hands pus.h.i.+ng down into the mattress as he caged her in place.

l.u.s.t and stark need etched hard lines onto his face, and his broad shoulders seemed to block out the light around them.

She was naked beneath him. Naked...and she could see the sharp edge of his teeth.

And the glow of the beast that lit his eyes.

Maybe she should have been afraid then.

But her head lifted and she met him in a hot, open-mouthed kiss. Her tongue slipped inside his mouth and tasted him. The werewolf's power wasn't scaring her.

It was turning her on.

Her hand fisted in his hair as she pulled him closer. Allison had enjoyed a handful of lovers in her life. The first few had been fumbling, the others more skilled.

Yet right then, she couldn't remember any of their names. Couldn't pull up their faces.

Only Cade.

She sucked on his lower lip. Heard his growl and felt her body tense in antic.i.p.ation.

This wasn't going to be some gentle ride. No sweet release.

Good. She wanted fire and pa.s.sion. Wild pleasure.

Him.

Her lips slipped from his, and Allison kissed her way down his neck. His pulse raced beneath her lips, thudding in time with his heartbeat.

Blood.

She licked him. Bit lightly.

Blood.

Allison turned her head away, squeezing her eyes shut as she fought the dark impulse to drink from him. That wasn't what she wanted. She wanted- The bed s.h.i.+fted as he moved, sliding down her body. His fingers were rough, strong, as he pushed her thighs apart. Then those fingers were sliding up, stroking right over the core of her need, and a gasp broke from Allison's lips.

"Look at me," his growl.

Slowly, her eyes opened and her head turned toward him.

"What do you see..." His fingers pushed inside her. Stretched her. Thrust and made her want more. "When you look at me?"

She saw the man she wanted.

"Monster?" His fingers withdrew. Thrust deeper. Her hips lifted helplessly against him as she arched off the bed. "Or man?"

Allison licked her lips. "Man." But what did he see? When he looked at her what- "And I see the most f.u.c.king beautiful woman I've ever met." He pulled his hand back. Yanked open his jeans and positioned his c.o.c.k at the entrance of her body. "Beautiful."

He made her feel that way.

"I'm safe," he told her, voice rough and deep as he fought to hold his desire in check, and his gaze seemed to burn even brighter. "Werewolves can't carry any diseases. Neither can vamps."

She already knew that, just as she knew pregnancy wasn't a risk for her, not then. Could a vampire and a werewolf even have a baby together?

Cade waited at the entrance of her body. She felt the broad shaft of his c.o.c.k and she wanted him inside but...

"No fear," he told her.

Allison shook her head. She didn't fear him. Right then, she just wanted him. "Now, Cade. Now."

Her wolf smiled and drove into her. He filled her, so full and thick, and Allison realized that she'd forgotten to breathe. He stilled for a moment, letting her adjust, and when she tightened around him, wanting more, Cade withdrew-then thrust in again, harder.

Her nails dug into his shoulders. She wanted hard. Wild. Him.

Each slide of his flesh sent need twisting through her. Her s.e.x was so sensitive, stretched, eager.

Pleasure beckoned just out of reach.

The bed squeaked in time with their rhythm. Thrust. Withdraw. Thrust. Stronger each time. Deeper. Wilder.

Allison laughed. It just felt good. He felt good. Her nails dug deeper. Her legs wrapped around him, pulling him closer.

Cade's mouth was on her neck. No, not her neck, but right at the curve of her shoulder. She could feel the edge of his teeth.

Maybe she wasn't the only one who liked to bite.

And...and she liked the feel of his teeth. Allison tilted her head back and pushed harder against him.

Harder.

The climax hit her, slamming right through her body so that her breath choked out and pleasure rocked her. Not gentle. Not easy. So fierce that the room dimmed. Aftershocks trembled through her s.e.x as ripples of release tightened her around him.

And Cade came. She felt the hot release inside of her even as his teeth nipped at her shoulder. He shuddered and his hands held her so tight.

As if he'd never let go.

His heartbeat raced. She could feel it against her. Drumming far faster than hers ever could. He was so warm around her. Warm and strong and solid.

In his arms, she was safe. Nothing could hurt her. No one.

Not while she was in his arms.

He pressed a soft kiss to her shoulder and lifted his body as he stared down at her.

She didn't want the moment to end. Not yet. Allison didn't want to talk. Didn't want to worry about what or who would be coming for them next.

Right then, she just wanted to pretend that the rest of the world didn't matter. Just a man and woman-that's all they were.

No monsters.

No darkness.

Just a man.

She pressed a kiss to his chest.

And a woman.

Cade began to thrust again.

She was gone. Cade knew he was alone even before his eyes opened. The bed felt cold. Allison's scent was weak, barely hanging in the air.

She was gone.
