Not even sure where the courage came from, I reached for his body. Rook groaned and his eyes opened as my hand touched the hard muscles of his stomach, which looked and felt like hard ridges under his skin. He was strong but seeing him like this made him feel like a massive predator, but one that I wanted to catch me.

“Do you want to touch it?” Rook asked through clenched teeth.

I licked my lips, my gaze going from his eyes to his hand and back again. My hesitation seemed to be the only answer he needed as he let go and grabbed my hand off his abs. Pulling me closer to his body, Rook didn’t hesitate to use his hand to wrap my own around his hard peen.

I sucked in a shuddering breath at the feel of it under my hand. His head flopped onto the pillow, and he let out a groan that made me feel powerful in a way that I’d never felt before. It was like my body was awakening to an entire side of myself that I may not have known existed, but that I wanted to explore.

His hand remained on mine and applied more pressure before he forced my hand to move along the hard length that seemed to jump under my touch.

“Yes, Elewyen, like that,” he said, his voice encouraging.

Rook removed his hand, and I suddenly wasn’t so sure. He turned his head and looked at me, his eyes pleading. Even though he didn’t say anything, I knew what he was asking for. Getting up on my knees, I gripped him with both hands and began moving them the way he just showed me.

The top of his peen was all shiny and reminded me of how between my legs had gotten wet for him. Sliding my fingers over the wet that I assumed was his excitement, I instinctively pulled it down along his length so my hands would glide easier.

Rook’s eyes fluttered closed again, and it was his hands gripping the sheets this time. “Yes…Oh fuck, I’m so close. Don’t stop. Fuck, don’t stop,” it came out like an order to keep going.

Surprisingly, I liked his tone, and it had my legs rubbing together and my womanhood clenching for more.

As he got closer to the same ledge that I’d been standing on, the powerful magic returned. I watched as it dipped under our bodies and disappeared into the bed, only to rise on the other side, and like a needle and thread, wrapped us up together.

“Faster,” Rook growled.

I did as he asked. His body arched off the bed. The muscles I was admiring somehow looked even larger as he yelled my name. I was shocked when the stream of liquid left his body and almost stopped what I was doing, but his groan let me know that this was what he was after. I continued to slide my hands along the hard length until his body went limp on the bed.

This was what the men wanted from us? This was not how it had been explained to me. The only word I could use to describe what I felt was happy. And I wanted more. I wanted to see him do that again, and I wanted to feel his hands on my body again.

Rook lifted his head and looked at me, and his lips tugged up in a smile. “Fuck, that felt amazing,” he said.

A flicker of pride danced in my system. I made him feel like that. I brought that smile to his face, and I liked it. I really liked it.

“Um…Dat what ya call comin’?” I asked, and he chuckled and looked down at his chest, which had a fair bit of liquid on it.

“Yeah,” he said.

“I’z dat what ya did ta me?”

“Yeah, it is.”

Heat radiated from my body as I sucked in my bottom lip and looked him over. “Cannie we do it again?” I asked, my body wanted another round of that intense release.

Rook reached up and gripped me behind the neck as he sat up enough to kiss me.

“Fuck yeah, we can. There are so many things I want to do with you, but first I need to get cleaned off. So why don’t I make you come in the shower?” he asked.

I had no idea what that entailed, but I trusted him so far, and I was excited to see what he had in store as he slipped from the bed and took my hand. I had a million questions about what it would mean if I decided to stay, including what would be expected of me, but they were all questions that I pushed to the back of my mind for now.

Right now, I wanted to let go, and for whatever time we had tonight, I wanted to let someone else take control of my body. I craved for him to show me what he meant by so many things he wanted to do with me. Was it wrong that I wanted to understand myself better, and that he seemed to have the answers? That I was putting my trust into the hands that I’d been warned to never go near? I may have been actin’ a donkey, but I had a feeling the women in the coven had never met a man like Rook.

I sat up, panting as heat began to rise in my body to an excessive level. Sweat dripped down my face, and I jumped from the bed, unsure of what was going on. My hand went to my chest, and I could feel my heart pounding like a wild animal. Was this a lingering effect of the ritual? Did I have a night terror? I don’t remember. I stared at the damp area of the sheet, the confusion only getting worse with each passing second. It was like when Rook had been sleeping with people overseas, but there was no sharp pain.

Grabbing the windows, I yanked them open to let in the cold night air and stood there breathing deeply, trying to cool my overheated skin. The reprieve was momentary as the cool breeze seemed to enrage whatever was going on.

“Is dis da demon fade comin’ for me?” I groaned out and closed my eyes as I gripped the ledge of the window for support. I began going through everything that had happened since the ritual. Was the meal I ate poisoned? My eyes darted around the room for someone in here casting a spell, but I was alone.

“Ah,” I yelled, as my power came from nowhere and ripped out of my chest to swirl around the room as my cock went from dormant to standing at full mast.
