I don’t care though…

My body shivers in remembrance of how his touch sent a wave of heat through my body. It ignited something deep within me. Something that’s been hidden.

I’ve never really thought about having sex… I mean, I read my human books, and my body responds. But even the word sex makes me feel a little uneasy, uncertain.

If Callum was here right now… If we were together, I would…

What exactly would I do?

Hells Bells.

I’m twenty-three years old. I’m Fae. We are sexual beings by nature. But I’m different because I have no experience. Most Fae have had multiple partners by the time they reach my age.

Sex is just…

I mean, it’s interesting… I enjoy reading about it…

But being with a Fae like that has never been of interest.

Oh, hells…

I suddenly realize I know nothing about real sex. Everything I know is from the human books I’ve read. And those things would make anyone blush. They certainly affect me.

My wings flutter in sudden excitement. My core burns with a yearning unlike anything I’ve felt before. Closing my eyes, I again think of his touch.

His eyes.

His lips.

Those darn strong arms.

My body tingles.

Rubbing my hand down my chest and across my stomach, I shiver. My nipples tighten beneath the light dress I wear. Reaching the bottom of my flowy shift, my fingers dance over my thighs, whisper-soft. My entire body quivers with… something.

What is this feeling? I can’t control it.

I want… no, I need…

What?

He smelled amazing, too. Like cedar and spice on a crisp fall morning.

A hard knock on my door quickly rips me from my thoughts.

Ugh.

My breathing is ragged as I snarl, “I swear, Cyrus! I’m going to…”

“You’re going to what?” Da’s stern voice comes from the other side of the door.

Taking a few seconds to gather myself, I take a few deep breaths and walk over, opening the door. My whole family stares back at me.

“We need to talk… as a family,” Da says.

Hells Bells. This cannot be good.

“Let me guess… This is about me going to the human world, isn’t it?” I snappily retort without thinking.
