Story: Dancing With Death

Donovan pinches my nipple as someone’s lips close around my clit, sucking it before biting down. I have just long enough to glance down to see Wraith staring up at me before I detonate. I scream as it rocks through me, Donovan pulling out and slamming back into me until his knot slips inside and locks us together.

His cum is hot as he paints my walls, and I shake in his arms before slipping into unconsciousness.

Chapter Nine

Audrey

CELESTE

You’re really missing out on these sweet-ass new apartments.

AUDREY

I thought you guys weren’t moving for a week? That’s what the text I got said.

DIANA

Ha. Probably because you’re the boss’s mate.

We haven’t been here for long. Just got here, actually.

CELESTE

And our girl is going through withdrawals.

Her girl passed her final—so did the boyfriend. But they’re not getting their new places until tomorrow.

DIANA

Shut up, Celeste. You’re making me sound desperate.

AUDREY

So where are your new apartments since I won’t be getting one?

CELESTE

What the hell do you need an apartment for when you have that massive house?

AUDREY

I don’t, but that doesn’t mean I’m not totally jealous.

DIANA

We’re in Ephonia—the city.

CELESTE

Not to be confused with the land of the same name that we’re also on.

AUDREY

You’re both nut-bags, you know that?

DIANA

But you still love us.
