Page 8 of Bloom (Dating a Demigod #4)

I felt Jersey’s hand sneaking beneath me, but it took my blissed-out mind a moment to realize that he was collecting some of my cum into his fingertips.

I pulled forward, releasing his cock from my body. And though I immediately missed the presence, I wasn’t about to miss the glorious sight that was coming.

I turned around on my knees to face Jersey, watching intently as he touched his finger to his tongue. He moaned at my flavor before asking quietly, “Are we bonded?”

I smiled as a soft light radiated from his chest. “Watch, sweetheart.” The light spread in all directions, twirling and winding in a pattern of leafy vines across his skin.

When his entire body was covered, the light grew brighter with one, two, three beats of his heart before fading away.

“Now we are bonded,” I whispered in reverence.

“I will love and protect you until the very end of time.”

“I promise to do the same. I love you too, Timber.”

We shared a kiss before nestling together on the bed, enjoying the afterglow of our perfect lovemaking. I laid my head on his chest and listened to the heart that beat for me as he trailed his fingers through my hair.

Before the light of the morning broke, I would go outside to find Bart’s truck. I had to get rid of it so questions wouldn't arise, so I would use my abilities to control the vines once more to disassemble the vehicle and bury it all beneath the dirt. But first, this time belonged to my mate.

After several quiet moments together, he asked, “Will you take me to the Elysian Fields one day?”

“Oh, yes. My mother will love meeting you, and I will show you off to every god and goddess. We have forever; I will take you to every garden and every beautiful place on this earth and beyond. But nothing could ever be as beautiful as you, and the love that blooms between us.”
