LOGINLyraHe pulled me up so my back was pressed against his chest, causing his dick to slip from between my thighs with a wet sound. I looked up at him and caught a faint smirk playing on his lips. He lifted a hand, tracing the line of my jaw, his thumb brushing over my lower lip.“I want you to taste yourself on my lips,” he whispered, the words barely audible in the silent room, sending a jolt of heat through my exhausted body.I nodded immediately.His smirk widened. “Greedy girl,” he rumbled before lowering his head and capturing my mouth in a demanding kiss. His lips crushed mine, and I parted them instantly, inviting him in. His tongue swept into my mouth, and I tasted it immediately. I could taste the salty tang of his cum and the musky sweetness of my own pussy, all mixed into one unique flavor.I moaned into his mouth, my hand fisting in his hair, holding him to me. The sticky mess between my thighs seemed to pulse with renewed heat, and I felt another wave of wetness coat my cor
Lyra“Get on the bed,” Raguel commanded as soon as we stumbled into my room.I shimmied out of my dress and slid onto the bed. I wiggled close to the center, getting comfortable as I heard the rustle of fabric from Raguel taking off his pants.The bed dipped as he climbed on. My breath hitched as he began to crawl towards me, chucking off his shirt.His body hovered above me and he leaned down to kiss me softly this time. His mouth made its way down to my neck, nipping, grazing and sucking as he went down to my collarbone.I arched up and unfastened the hook of my bra, flinging across the room carelessly.A growl escaped his lips when I bared my breasts to him. “Fuck…these tits, Lyra.” He took them in his hands and began to knead roughly.“Perfect,” he groaned, and then his mouth was on my breast, sucking my nipple. I cried out, my back arching off the bed once again as his teeth scraped against the sensitive flesh. His other hand began to roll my other nipple between his fingers, pin
Lyra“You did the right thing, Lyra,” Egret’s voice purred smugly inside my head. “You turned away from the trap.”I slammed the door of our suite shut behind me and pressed my back against the wood, my hands flying up to massage my temples as an ache began to bloom in my head.My chest was heaving.“You need to calm down,” Egret said.“Shut up!” I screamed aloud into the empty room, my voice cracking. “Just shut up! Leave me alone!”I made my way across the room and caught my reflection in the mirror—wild-eyed, terrified, looking every bit as unhinged as I felt.“Shut up!” I yelled again.“Lyra, I know you're scared.”I covered my ears despite knowing it was pointless.“Stop talking.” I broke down in a sob. “I’m losing my goddamn mind.”A knock sounded at the door and it opened before I could respond.Raguel walked inside.The moment he saw me, he stopped and his expression immediately shifted from concern to alarm. His eyes darted around the room, then landed back on me.“Who are yo
LyraI woke up smiling.It happened before my eyes even opened, before I became aware of my surroundings.Then I reached across the bed and found the space beside me empty. I opened my eyes immediately, my heart lurching.I rolled onto my side, my skin tingling with the memory of his touch under the full moon. My hand brushed against a folded piece of paper resting on his pillow. I pulled it close, my eyes tracing the elegant script.Had to leave for an early morning council briefing that I couldn’t avoid. Eat breakfast and get some rest, sweetheart. I will see you soon.— R.A ridiculous smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I clutched the note to my chest. Then I looked around his room.Or maybe our room?No, definitely not our room.But…maybe one day.The thought snuck into my mind so naturally that I froze.Maybe one day, I’d wake up beside him in his room at the packhouse every morning. Maybe one day I’d leave little notes for him too or we’d argue over who got more space on
LyraRaguel pulled back slightly and let out a deep breath, his hands dropping from my cheeks to rest on the bed between us.“I understand if you do not believe me, Lyra,” he whispered lowly. He wouldn’t look at me, his gaze fixed somewhere on the rumpled sheets. “It is easier to believe the other side. It is simpler to believe I am just the heartless monster the world paints me to be.”“I believe you,” I interrupted.The words left my lips before my brain could even attempt to stop them.Raguel froze and I watched as shock overtook his features. His amber eyes snapped back to mine. He stared at me as if I had just spoken an foreign language.To be honest, I was just as surprised at myself too. The logical part of my mind should have been screaming for evidence. I should have been packing my bags, hunting for Omar’s business card, and running toward the nearest exit.A small smile suddenly touched Raguel’s lips, the kind that I had come to realise meant he was about to tease me. “Is t
LyraI drifted in and out of consciousness, reality snapping back as I felt the lingering throbs of orgasm. My body felt heavy, the sheets damp with sweat.Raguel’s chest rose and fell against me, his hand gently stroking my hair. He looked down, a wicked smirk playing on his lips.“Are you still with me, Lyra?” His voice was filled with amusement. “Or are you going to pass out on me again?”I tried to form a coherent response, but my brain was fogged. “I’m fine,” I managed to mumble into his shirt.He chuckled, reaching down to casually graze my lower lip with his thumb. “Fine? You were sobbing my name a few minutes ago, begging me to stop. Your pretty little pussy couldn’t handle it.”His fingers tightened in my hair, just enough to make me gasp. “Look at you, completely drained, sweetheart. And I haven’t even slid inside you yet. If you’re this weak from just my tongue, what do you think will happen when I finally sink my cock into that tight hole? You’ll probably faint before I'm
LyraThe offer was an incredibly tempting one, an offer that guaranteed the freedom I had been ready to risk my life for just forty-eight hours ago in the back of a delivery truck.“I have a private transport waiting at the gates,” the mayor said, his voice dropping into a persuasive tone. “I have
LyraThe mayor held my gaze for several long seconds, long enough to make me uneasy. I clamped my jaw shut, forcing my gaze to lock onto his cold grey eyes.“What happened to them?” My voice came out steady despite the unease I was feeling. “The other ladies associated with Raguel.”The mayor took
LyraThe mayor’s charming smile did nothing to erase the predatory gleam in his eyes. He brought his hands out from behind his back to smooth the front of his tailored suit.“Our future queen,” He said, tilting his head slightly. “I was hoping to have a word with you.”I glanced toward the ballroom
Lyra“Breathe, Lyra,” Raguel chuckled as we stood before the grand ballroom’s towering doors. “Calm down.”“Easy for you,” I hissed, clutching his forearm tightly. “You aren’t the human being about to be paraded before a different breed of people.”His warm palm squeezed mine, and despite my anxiet
