Her mouth is hot, and her skin is cool from the frosty air. I’d love to strip her down and take my time exploring every inch of her naked body, but I can’t wait to be inside her. I need her too much right now. The frenzy of magic and the powerful need to consummate this bond between us won’t let me take things slow. The way Ruby’s hands tug at my shirt and run up my back and down over my ass tells me she’s feeling it too.

“I need you,” I rasp, dragging my teeth over the skin of her neck and then sucking on the spot.

“Same. Fucking do something about it.” Ruby’s head tilts back, giving me better access to her throat. I lick up toward her jaw and then bite down, wishing I could mark her up permanently. Ruby shudders and curses. Her fingers dig into my shoulders and pull me closer, but I’m already crushing her to me.

I move back to her mouth, and she meets me like we’re in a battle. Tongues dancing, mouths hunting. Ruby’s hands find my belt and she unzips my pants with the same urgency that’s riding me. She hums when her hand lands on my dick. Her fingers wrap around the length of me, pulling me out of my pants and pumping my cock, dragging a groan from me.

The logistics of where we’re at and what we’re wearing don’t leave a lot of options. I don’t have the patience to move somewhere else. I make quick work of the button and zipper on Ruby’s pants, shoving them down along with her panties in a desperate jerk. She whimpers when I break our kiss, but moans when I spin her around and plant her hands on the house. I grab her hips, my hand gliding over the perfect round cheek of her ass before I smack it. We both groan and Ruby bends, glaring at me from over her shoulder.

“You’d better follow that up with a kiss.”

My dick is painfully hard and the sight of her like this, ass up, back arched for me, desperate, wet and needy, but still defiant. It fucking undoes me. I grip my cock, sliding the tip back and forth through her slick pussy before I line myself up and slam inside her.

“Oh, fuck, you have a monster cock,” Ruby moans, and I want to laugh, but I’m dying. I’m going to die with my dick buried deep in her pussy and I will be a happy fucking man.

I stay still, buried deep inside her, until I’m sure I’m not going to blow my load with one fucking pump. She’s clenching around me and so hot and wet that I might actually die right now.

I take a few breaths, doing everything I can to steady myself. Every sensation is heightened with the magic singing through my nerve endings and the connection to Ruby thrumming in my chest.

I drop my forehead to her shoulder. “Fuck, do you feel that?”

“You mean, you being a big fucking tease?” Ruby’s head is rolling and her hips wiggle, but her breathing is fast. I clamp my hands on her ass, holding her still.

I bite down on my lip, hissing as I slowly pull out and then slam back inside her. Ruby cries out and I grunt at the way her body grips my dick. Her head drops and her whole body relaxes. I can’t keep up the slow torture for more than a minute before the magic pulses beneath my skin. The connection to Ruby, and the beast that now lives inside me, takes over.

I grip a handful of Ruby’s hair with one hand and wrap the other around her waist. Then I lose it. I fuck Ruby, my bonded, myiomlán, my true fucking love, like a madman. My hips piston, the sounds of our fucking sloppy and loud. Ruby’s moaning and a growl rips from my throat. Still, I don’t stop, slamming into my mate with a raw need that cracks me wide open.

“Fuck, Ezra. I’m going to…” Ruby doesn’t get to finish her gasping sentence before her orgasm rips through her.

Her body tenses and shudders, but I keep fucking her through it. Her pussy spasms around my dick, and I roar as my own release barrels through me. I come so hard my vision dims. My ears buzz and I lose the ability to hear.

I don’t know how long we stay there, my still hard cock buried deep inside Ruby. My hand is still tangled in her hair, and I gently tug her head back. Ruby’s eyes are dazed, pleasure drunk, and dreamy. Lowering my head, I sweep a soft kiss over her lips. Ruby moans and my dick twitches, only making her groan against my mouth.

“I love you, Cube.”

“You’re an idiot. But I love you, too.”

I bark out a laugh, and Ruby smiles up at me.

“Are you ready for tonight?”

“I’m not sure I can walk anymore, but I guess that doesn’t matter if I’m going to stay impaled on your dick.”

I laugh and press a kiss against her neck. I will never get enough of her smart mouth.

“Let me enjoy this for one more minute. Then we’ll go make those assholes pay.”

RUBY

THE PRESENT

“How long do we have left?” Zara fidgets, hopping back and forth in her sexy nurse’s outfit.

I still can’t believe she let me dress her. She’s thrown an army jacket over the top of her costume, which must belong to Rhys because she’s swimming in it. Rhys ditched his hospital gown, swapping out his slippers for actual shoes, and changing into a t-shirt and pair of sweats.

Archer is still in his suit, but Lena said her dress was too nice to be ruined by tonight’s activities and put on a pair of leggings and a sweater.
