Page 29 of Monsters in Love

We heard the shifting of a massive body again, the clack of claws on the checkered floors. The deeper we went into the maze, the more and more lost I felt.

But the two of them seemed to know this place at least.

"Your human finally came, but I won't let you go," a heavy voice snarled.

I squeezed my eyes shut, trembling.

Adam held me, his nose still pressed into my neck.

"I won't let you escape with her. I will kill her, and you will never leave my side. Your job is to protect the knowledge here. You can't abandon me…."

The voice sounded closer, the claws becoming louder.

I opened my eyes, looking over Adam's shoulder to the entrance of the shadowed row we were in.

Red scales glistened, a massive body slinking by. The dragon paused for a moment but then kept moving.

It took a few minutes, but finally— the dragon disappeared.

Adam let out a breath, drawing back to look at me. He lifted a finger and swiped away a tear from my cheek. "Little dove, you're safe," he whispered.

We both stared at each other, and I became painfully aware of the fact that my legs were around his massive hips. He had me pressed against the shelves, the shape of his cock pressing into me.

I let out the smallest whimper, and before I knew what I was doing, I ground my core against him.

He breathed out a hiss, falling forward and catching himself against the wood. "Woman, you're tempting a monster."

I was fully aware of what I was doing, and I couldn't stop myself. I studied him, focusing on his eye for a few moments. The purple in his iris was luminescent, burning with lust.

"Adam."

We both looked up to see Andrew. He jerked his head to follow him, his gaze lingering a little too long on us before he disappeared.

Adam grunted but then readjusted me, carrying me like a baby again. He followed Andrew down a couple of rows until we came to a door. Andrew went through it quickly, and we followed.

We were now in a small room, one that had more books and a few chairs.

And a bed.

Adam set me down slowly, breathing a sigh of relief.

"That was close," he mumbled.

I nodded numbly. If I hadn't been wet before, I was now.

Andrew moaned, placing his hands on top of his head. "This is our bedroom. We're safe here for a little while, and then we will need to get on the move again. The walls will change, the library will reorganize itself. The dragon won't come after us next. I'm certain it'll be a couple of the harpies."

My mind was swirling as I registered his words.

Andrew and Adam had a few differences in appearance. They were similar in size, although Andrew was even taller, and he had short dark hair and a beard. His eye was bright green, his lashes long. He wore charcoal colored pants and a dark tweed blazer over a hunter green sweater.

He was hot, and I found myself wondering again about how it would feel to do bad things to him. I wondered what his beard would feel like against me as he sucked my clit.

"I'm very confused by everything right now," I blurted out.

I went to one of the plush chairs and attempted to pat off the dust before plopping on the bright red velvet cushion.

"You are, according to the powers that be, our mate," Adam said, looking directly at me.
