Sliding one palm up her spine she arches into me, her tongue meeting mine in a dance I never want to not know.

But it abruptly ends as my hand reaches the base of her wings. She pulls away with a jolt as I freeze, having not thought about them as I’d run my hand up between her shoulders.

“Those are very sensitive,” she chuckles, biting her lip and shuddering as I drop my palm.

“Noted,” I say and kiss her again.

I keep it more chaste this time before pulling back.

“And what about the horns?” I have to ask.

“She likes being held in place by them,” Garrick answers, causing us both to turn our heads.

“Really?” I raise a brow and look back down at my girl with a playful smirk. I suppose I should feel jealous that he knew that before I did but I’m not that guy. My mind instead starts conjuring some very fun scenarios we could have.

Tacita’s response is to shift back to her human form before I can test out any of my new ideas.

“You’ll regret telling him that,” she threatens.

“Pretty sure I won’t, Goddess.” Garrick moves towards her. “In fact, I think he just imagined shoving you to your knees and holding those sharp horns of yours whilst I fuck your throat.”

Yep, okay, Garrick is on board with sharing. I lock that away for later, his idea sounding a damn good one. I also have to shift my dick with the visual he just fed me.

Garrick chuckles as I adjust myself. He leans in to kiss Tacita, not caring that she’s still in my arms. “I should leave, go check on things. I’m sure Tarron will have gathered the bodies you left out in the forest by now and Hades is also probably waiting in my office.”

“I should come with you.” Tacita straightens.

“No, you should stay here. I can handle it. Give me a few hours then I’ll come back and watch Milo so you both can shower and sleep.”

“I want to stay until he wakes up,” I say defiantly.

“He’ll be out for at least a day. You should get some rest.”

“He’s right, Wyatt,” Tacita adds. It’s only the fact that I know how exhausted she is, and the fact I would like to take care of her, wash the blood off her, that I concede.

“I’ll be back as soon as I can,” Garrick says.

“You don’t mind sitting with him?” Tacita asks.

“Not at all.”

They kiss again before Garrick goes to leave. I step back to let them have a moment, moving back to Milo’s side. He’s still sleeping so peacefully. I can’t wait for him to wake and learn everything I have tonight.

There’s been another shift in our relationship and he’s unaware of it. Of the permanence I now feel about it. I think he’s going to be pleased.

“Wait, Garrick,” Tacita’s call has me refocusing on her once more.

“Yes?” Garrick pauses, halfway out the door.

“I totally forgot that I left Seffy and Rio in that forest. Please don’t subject them to anything or keep them locked up. They are innocent.”

“Got it,” he says and leaves.

Tacita

Wyatt and I make our way back to the infirmary as the sun is setting. After the horrific storm yesterday, it’s back to clear skies and burning temperatures. The last rays hit my cheeks as we crossed the tarmac.
