Am I wrong in tasting his tongue right now and knowing that I’ve found my home?
He shoves me against the couch.
“Is the pain bad?” I ask.
“Horrible.” He peels my shirt from my body.
“So bad, I could die.”
"Bullshit.” I laugh.
"No, really. It’s so bad. Just like me, so bad.” He groans into my mouth, his lips are so wide, so soft.
“I missed you.”
My heart nearly stops in my chest, I pull away from him.
“What? Was that a vulnerable comment from my pimp?”
“Aw.” He swipes my cheek and kisses his thumb.
“Was that a tear from my whore?”
I sucker punch him in the stomach.
Oh shit, I think he likes it.
His eyes flash blue.
“Do it again.”
"Why?”
“So I have a reason to chase you around my apartment without feeling guilty for tackling you to the ground from behind and fucking you.”
Stunned, my mouth drops open, he takes full advantage, his lips molding against mine, his hands digging into my hair and then I’m getting carried somewhere. I can’t take my clothes off fast enough.
We litter the ground with a trail of them until I’m on the balcony and getting set on a chair.
I’m completely naked by this point.
He gets on his knees and spreads mine wide.
“I just wanted a reward for going to therapy and not killing anyone. I want a reward for not killing Xavier for thinking he could possibly…” His fingers inch up my thighs until his thumbs dip low by my ass.
“…even deserve to speak to you.”
My head falls back against the chair. It’s soft, it’s beautiful out too, the moon is full and I know that this is heaven. I see the stars, and I know I’ll feel them soon.
“This wasn’t part of the agreement.”
How I managed to get that out, I have no clue.
“Fuck the agreement, I have a tongue and dick if you haven’t noticed, same thing and tonight…this werewolf wants to feast.” Eli’s head lowers until he’s a breath away from tasting me.
“Remember, enemies in the morning.”
"Lovers now?” I try.
