Iwish I could make Rukh understand that I don’t want to leave him. That none of this is out of my desire to get away from him as fast as I can. Every time I mention finding out who committed these crimes and framed me, he takes it as though I want my banishment lifted so that I can return to Mellara.

I don’t know how to explain to a demon who is so unfamiliar with human emotions why it’s more complicated than that. I don’t know what answer I can give him other than promising a future that, right now, is just too cloudy to say anything resolute about.

I know that I care about him, though. And I hope that he’s in that future, whatever it turns out to be.

I love when he touches me. And I love it even more when he tastes me. I love feeling him inside of me. And when he moves deep within me, it makes everything seem worth it.

Right now, thats what I want. Thats what I need. Maybe showing him how much I love him will soothe this ache he seems to be consumed by.

So I kiss him tenderly, trying to show him everything my words don’t seem to be able to say.

Rukh, I say, taking his earlobe between my teeth. I want you. I kiss his neck, nipping at his flesh. “I want to be with you.”

My hands find his shoulders. I bite my lip when he grabs my waist and lifts me off the ground. I wrap my legs around him.

He carries me into the cave. And then hes on me. His mouth on my throat, his fingers on my breasts, his cock pushing between my legs.

I arch my back, taking him inside of me.

Say my name.

Rukh! I cry.

Tell me what you want.

I want you to fuck me.

Mmm, he growls, blowing warm air against my ear.

I moan when he moves his hips, grinding against me. But hes not undressing me, even though Im wet and ready. He wants to draw this thing out. He wants to make me ache for him, to make me beg, to make me want him so badly that Id say anything.

And its working.

Please, I whisper.

His lips curl into a smile, and he pulls back. He eyes my body, still reclining on the floor of the cave.

Please, I whisper again.

His red eyes widen. Ive never seen him look so predatory.

Im his prey.

All of a sudden, his lips are on mine. And Im kissing him back. His tongue is in my mouth, and it feels wonderful. His hands are on my neck. But it feels so good.

He breaks the kiss and moves down, pulling off my shirt. He kisses my throat, my shoulders, my breasts. His lips are so soft.

I moan when he moves down to remove my pants as well. He kisses my stomach, my hips, my thighs. His hands are on my hips. And then I feel his mouth on my clit.

My back arches when he pushes his tongue against my pussy.

All I feel is Rukh. His mouth on me. His tongue inside of me. I move my hips, grinding against him. My pussy is wet, and I can feel my juices drip down my thighs.

Rukh is so good with his mouth. He licks my clit, and then pushes his tongue deep inside of me, moving it in and out. I can feel his nose against my clit. I can feel his chin against my lips.

And then he grabs my knees, and pushes my legs back, spreading them wide.

I moan when he looks up. His red eyes are so bright. And theyre looking at me – right at me.

You smell so good.

I moan when his mouth is on me again. I grab ahold of his hair and press his face against my pussy. He moves his tongue inside of me and then moves his lips against my clit.

I let him play that way, licking and sucking, for a few seconds. But then I cant take it anymore.

Im too desperate. Too horny. I pull on him, and he moves up the bed. I kiss him. I taste myself on his mouth. I cant get enough.

I kiss him hard, tasting myself on his lips. I reach down his body and wrap my hand around his cock, but he grabs my wrist and pulls it away.

I feel like Im going to die from the anticipation. I want him. I need him.

Please.

His red eyes widen. He growls, and then slams my legs back, spreading them apart. His cock is between my legs, and I can feel it against my pussy. He grabs my cheeks and forces his lips against mine.

I feel him push. Im so wet, his cock slides inside of me easily.

Mmm, he says, breaking the kiss.

He grabs my chin, and turns my face to the side, exposing my neck. His teeth dig into my neck.

I cry out.

Deep, guttural moans escape my lips. I move my hips against his, rubbing my clit against his body. I want him to slam into me, but he doesnt.

He pushes his cock deep inside of me, and then pulls it back. His lips move to my ear, and he growls. And then he slams into me.

Fuck me, I moan. Harder.

I arch my back, my ass off the floor. My legs wrap around his waist. Im so close to coming. When he slams into me again, I scream.

Fuck! I cry out.

Suddenly, stars burst behind my eyes and my whole body tenses as my orgasm tears through me.

Rukh roars, and I feel his cock throb inside of me. I feel his cum fill my pussy, warm and sticky as it drips back out.

How could he think I’d ever want to leave this?
