And I realized it was a thought provoked by my fangs in another human’s veins.
Lily didn’t want to share me.
Nor did she really want to be shared.
But this situation with Emine felt different to her. It was an extension ofusthat she felt while kneeling for the other woman, just as she decided my fangs acted as another method of operating as a unit.
Awe.
Acouple.
Because we were together.
Bonded.
In a relationship that transcended time and space and redefined the formalities of pure existence.
These acts meant nothing and everything at the same time. She saw us indulging in this game as the same player. Not two separate entities, but a pair of souls solidifying as one.
Or perhaps that was just my own mind deciphering her thoughts and piecing them together in a way I understood.
She was right.
We were together in this and connected on a level few others would ever understand.
It made us a powerful duo.
A duo that could thrive and survive anything thrown at it. Even this.
And even more than that, we couldenjoyit.
Because Lily liked the way it felt to pleasure another beneath my command. It was a shared experience, one that made us both hot for each other.
Just as I enjoyed sensing her experience, hervisionof events. And feeling her emotions as though they were my own.
This whole situation was utterly fucked up.
Yet it made sense in the darkness of this life. It suited us. It… it made a future possible between us.
My focus returned to Khalid and his knowing gaze. “Now you understand the game,” he said, clearly having read all these thoughts on my face.
Or maybe he could hear me.
I didn’t quite know the full extent of his power, just that energy oozed off of him in barely controlled waves.
He wasn’t like other vampires.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he possessed a hint of lycan in his blood.
Or maybe something else.
Something darker.
“Release my pet,” he whispered silkily, his eyes shifting to the wrist still in my mouth.
I immediately dropped Emine’s hand.
He caught it before it could fall, bringing the wound up to his mouth and striking out like a panther demolishing his prey.
