Because once I started, I wouldn’t be able to hold back.

I pressed my lips to her ear, adding, “But I promise to reward you for taking it.”

And then I let my beast free.

To fuck.

To mark.

To do whatever the hell he desired.

Because this female belonged to me. She was built for this as myErosita. My immortal blood toy.Mine.

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

IZZY

My palms hitthe mattress as a scream escaped my throat. That scream was almost immediately smothered by a pillow meeting my face.

Violent hands grabbed my hips, forcing them upward as Cam drove into me, his movements bordering on feral.

I dug my nails into the bed, my limbs straining to hold myself in the position he’d roughly manhandled me into.

“This is going to hurt,” he’d warned. “But I promise to reward you for taking it.”

I hadn’t been given time to consider what that meant before he’d rolled our bodies and forced me into this submissive position on the bed.

My teeth sank into my lip as I tried futilely not to whimper, my heart a shattered mess in my chest.

I’d woken up to voices. A conversation about our location. The security.Technology and cameras.Something about lycan experiments.

At first, I’d thought it was a dream. Then reality had slowly settled around me, a memory of Cam fucking my mouth nearly making me bolt upright.

But then I’d recognized Mira’s voice.

“It was smart to build all the research tunnels under the catacombs. Not only is this considered neutral territory, but it’s also sacred. No one would think…”

Her voice had faded then, unconsciousness stealing over me for a long moment before allowing me to resurface.

Although, I’d been so utterly focused on the details regarding our location that I hadn’t thoroughly listened to their conversation, only picking up pieces of it until the very end.

“I’m wondering, how do the blood virgins compare to yourErosita? Sexually, I mean.”

Those words had pierced right through my chest and anchored deep within my mind.

Why would Cam know that?I’d wondered.

Only for Mira to essentially answer me less than a minute later.

“I’m curious as to if the blood virgin program is adequate or if it needs improvement. They’re trained to excel beyond anErosita’sskill set. So I’m asking if the blood virgins you tasted meet or surpass yourErosita’scapabilities, or do they need work?”

I’d stopped breathing at that moment, and I hadn’t been able to inhale properly since.

Camhad tastedtheblood virgins.

And I knew Mira hadn’t just meant their blood, butsexually.

Cam slammed into me, grounding me in the moment and demanding that I pay attention. But how else could I fucking feel?
