Page 113 of Castor

My chuckle broke off into a moan as he quickened his pace on top of me, riding me so good my toes curled. “Fuck. Don’t stop. That feels so good.”

With our bodies joined, I felt everything so strongly. The sensation of his ass hugging my cock, the electric tingle left behind as he ran his hands along my skin. Most of all, I felt a deep ache in my heart from how much I loved him.

“I’m so glad my red string led to you,” Kyo whimpered, pressing his face against my jaw.

I didn’t know what that meant, but it caused a lump to form in my throat anyway. Overcome with emotion, I reclaimed his lips, releasing my wings as I did. They wrapped around Kyo as he rode me. The feathers created a space where only he and I existed.

Nothing could touch us.

“I have to bite you to complete the ritual,” I said, my muscles quaking. I was so fucking close.

Kyo tipped his head back to expose his throat. “Do it.”

My teeth sunk into his neck just as my orgasm crashed into me. As his blood filled my mouth, tiny explosions traveled throughout my body. Moaning, I drank it down. He tasted sweet with a floral undertone, like sakura flowers and springtime. I felt my soul knitting with his, joining us in every way possible. Making us whole.

“Castor!” Kyo’s claws dug into my shoulders as he shuddered with his release.

“That’s it, little dragon.” I held him with my arms and my wings as he trembled from the force of his orgasm. I licked the bite marks before capturing his lips in a rough, passionate kiss.

Neither of us moved as we came down from our highs, lazily kissing as he sat on my lap. We reveled in the taste of each other, in the new feelings coursing through our bodies as we had, finally, become one.

“Hey, Red?” Kyo drew back to look at me. “You asked me once what I believed in. This is my answer. I believe in you. In us. In this moment right now.”

“I believe in us too.” I brought him closer and breathed him in. “What is a red string?”

His raspy little laugh was adorable. “It’s a story Ryoko told me. The red string of fate leads from our heart to our pinky, and it connects to the person we’re destined to find in this life. Our fated mate.”

“I like that.”

“Me too.” He relaxed against me. “I didn’t expect King Nikolai to show up earlier. Poor Warrin is thrown into another arranged marriage. How do you think Daman is handling it?”

“Probably with some drinks and an orgy.”

“Sounds like how I acted. Minus the orgy. I just fucked you.”

“You fucked that reaper,” I reminded him.

“And you fucked Jasper. So shut up.”

“I love when you get feisty.” I grinned and pulled him with me as I lay back on the bed. “But you have no need to worry. My body is only yours now.I’myours.”

“And I’m yours.”

He changed back into his human form, the scales, claws, and horns retreating. My wings stayed around us though as we lay down.

“Your feathers are tickling me,” he said before puffing out a breath.

I laughed and held him closer. I had never been so happy. “Get used to it. You’ll have to deal with me and my feathers for eternity.”

“And your spending habits.”

“Hey, I’ll buy you stuff too. Want a new bike or ten? They’re yours. Just say the word.”

“You dork.” Kyo rolled on top of me, his smile relaxed. “All I want is you. Now and always.”

I reached up and cupped his cheek, my heart skipping a beat as I realized that this was real. “Now and always.”

We had fought for this—fought hard for each other—and now we were together, bonded for life. As Lovers. Husbands. Soulmates.
