“Yes?” His grin was mischievous.

She was too excited to roll her eyes at his corny joke. “I know how! I know how to cleanse them all! All I need is to access all of those other branches of magic I didn’t have access to before. I already have elemental, divine and demonic. I just need to collect more, which I can do because of my insane godmother! The magic of the Elders was trying to get into me. Because I don’t have to siphon just sexual energy like a regular succubus. I can siphon magic!”

He’d figured it out before her. She didn’t contemplate it further as she reveled in the clarification of her truth.

So many parts of her abilities had never really made sense to her. She’d always thought it was because of her succubus side being shrouded in secret. But her ability to calm the beasts of rage lust sufferers four years prior had never sat right with her.

She recalled once holding Stone up for a keg-stand years ago. She’d been searching for a meal that night, her succubus sifting through the offerings, and she had felt Stone’s desire. It hadn’t been for her, but she’d tasted it, curious if that was how the Dragon King would taste. In doing so, she’d added it to a collection she hadn’t realized she had been building.

Years and years of sex with so many mystics struck her mute.

She didn’t just have shifter, celestial, demonic, divine, and elemental magic; she had a slew of them. If she could just learn how to harness them.

Convenient that she knew of someone whose magic knowledge was even deeper than hers, and most importantly, could channel magic through all of his chakra gates.

In the time everything clicked into place in her head, the Dragon King had made himself comfortable by leaning back on his arms as his eyes roved all over her still naked body.

Silver pulsed in his eyes along with the gold.

She really needed to work on that color key when she got the chance.

She crawled forward and his eyes slid down to her nipples as gravity did its thing. “Oh amazing Dragon King, can this lowly girl ask a favor? I promise it’ll come with benefits.”

Alessandro’s nose flared as her hand slid from his knee and came to rest on his upper thigh, close to where there was a pulsing white light that let her succubus know just where to touch him to get the answer she desired.

She used it as leverage to bring her lips just a breath away from his own. Her succubus was out so much that her purple glow reflected in his silver iris.

“I’m listening.” His voice came out in a growl, his skin twitching under her palm.

Her other hand entangled in his hair at the nape of his neck as she pressed her lips against his, making sure her breasts pressed against his chest.

Her tongue encouraged his tongue to join in a slow dance of dominance. He followed her lead. The heat radiating from his length was her cue to create a small distance between them.

“Teach me how to channel everything.” She allowed her wrist to linger with pressure against the side of his cock.

He bucked against her, but she tugged at the collection of curls she had in her control.

He growled at her, but didn’t move again.

Physically, he was her superior, but the dance of seduction was her native language.

“Fine. But I name my benefit.” He hissed.

“Which is?” She asked.

Hus thumb against her lips were rough. “Wrap these pretty little lips around my cock and we can take it from there.”

She smirked. “Your wish is my command.”

Chapter 35

Rowan awoke to the smell of croissants baking the next morning.

Blearily, she opened her eyes to be greeted by the visage of the Dragon King sleeping.

Wonder crept in as she realized he had always woken up first and fell asleep last.

She took her time raking her eyes over the sharpness of his jawline, a contrast to the softness of his supple lips. He had high cheekbones fanned over by long lashes underneath a set of thick eyebrows and the lightest presence of scars from long ago fights.
