Page 17 of Beyond Your Darkness, I'm Your Light

“Tell me what? And Randy, why are you talking to him? He can’t see you.” Now, I’m getting confused.

“I can see the dead and hear people’s thoughts… among other things.” He states, coming closer to me. Once again, I stopped him by placing my hand on his chest. Ooooh it feels so good, rock solid and hard, just like him. Stop that and focus, girl. I reprimand myself.

“Among other things, what aren’t you telling me now, Aryas?”

“Can I come to your place tonight or wherever you summon the dead? I promise to explain what I can.” He pleads.

“I should say no, but I’m guessing you will say something along the lines of ‘since you claimed me, I can't tell you no.’” I give him a knowing look.

“I wasn’t going to say that, but now that you mention it.” He says, laughing. “It does have a nice ring to it.”

“I guess you can. Just remember, if you try anything I won’t hesitate to kill you.” I smile at him while batting my innocent eyes at him.

“You’re not innocent nor can you kill me, but I’ll keep that in mind. Until later, Little Doe.” He grabs me around the waist, pulls me flush against his rock-hard chest and plants one on me that I was so not prepared for.

This kiss is wicked, sinful, and downright nasty… And I fucking love it. Our teeth are gnashing together as we fight to see who will swallow whom whole. I’d gladly let him win this round.

“Could you two get a fucking room, please? We have other people here that don’t want to see this, and you missy, need to get back to work.” Randy butts in. He goes ignored until we’ve had our fill of each other.

“That’s just a little something for you to think about in my absence.” He begins. “Every ache you feel when you move a certain way will cause your core to throb with need that only I will deliver you from.” He kisses my cheek. “It may be tonight.” He kisses my ear, and I shiver. “It may be next week.” His tongue swipes along my throat as he gets to the base. “Understand this, it will be whenIdecide.” He growls, sucking where his tongue just was, and I come completely undone just from that move.

“Aryas!” I shout as my body begins to convulse, and I turn into jelly, still wrapped up in his embrace. This has got to be another hidden, secret talent he has.

“Yes, Little Doe.” He chuckles knowing exactly why I’m shouting his name. “I want to hear my name screamed from those lips when I’m inside you, shattering your walls to nothing beneath me. Are you ready for that?”

“Yes.” I moan. Wait, what the hell just happened here?

“Good, better start stretching while you work because you’re gonna need it.” He winks right before he releases me and places a peck on my lips. “See you, tonight.” And then he’s gone, and I’m literally stuck in the same spot he left me in. With a bucket full of come running down my leg.

“Fucking hell! That was hotter than hot.” I say.

“It looked like you were having a muscle spasm, there was nothing hot about it.” Leave it to Randy to be the buzz kill I need to get serious and do my damn job. But how am I supposed to do that after Hot Stuff McGruff left me like this? “Better figure it out. You’re about to get busy.” He announces, pointing in the direction of the front office.

“Well, looks like I need to get my head in the game and stop daydreaming about him.” I chuckle. “C’mon, let's head out there and get through this day.”

“Uh huh, you just want it to hurry up and end, so you can finally cash in that v-card of yours.” Randy says, trailing after me.

“Maybe, maybe not.” That’s all I say as I head to the front desk to greet our receptionist and see what all we have coming in for the day.

Chapter Four

Aryas

WhatthefuckdidI just do? I scold myself, because I can’t believe I just claimed her, when she’s already spoken for and doesn’t even know it. He’s gonna kill me when he finds out what I did. Hell, he might not because he’s so far up his own ass trying to eliminate every name he gets from The Messengers that he won’t know until it’s too late.

The thoughts that were running through her mind had me hard as a rock. The final straw was when she sounded defeated as the thought crossed her mind that after I got what I wanted from her, I would cast her aside. How could I not claim her as my own? She’s so innocent yet so much more. I know she’s more powerful than she is letting on, but I can’t figure her out yet. Once I take her virginity, she won’t be able to keep me out. We will be as close as two can be… Together.

I’ll have to put my shields up stronger than they’ve ever been once we cross that bridge.

“Little Doe, you don’t know what’s in store for you after this.”

Chapter Five

Moon

BeforeIknewit,the day passed by in a blur. I meet some new people, both living and dead that are in need of answers. Since I have plans tonight, I had Amanda pencil them in for later in the week. Paranormal folks know about my skill while the Humans just think I’m a fortune teller and a hoax. Doesn’t matter what they think, they pay me to do a job and that’s what I do. It’s up to them to believe in my craft or not.

This is what’s on my mind instead of the hot date I’m supposed to be having in less than three hours. More than enough time to nap, shower, and be ready for when Hot Stuff gets here. I’m not sure why I call him that when I know what his name is. I suppose it’s fitting since he really is super hot.
