Page 13 of Hell Fae Prince

Kingdoms were born—such as the Netherworld, Barren Lands, and Marsh Lands—where the various Nightmare Fae took refuge. “And the Hell Fae Realm began to thrive,” Az went on now.

All while this heat continued to blossom inside me.

Heat that was making me tingle in unspeakable ways.

Why am I so aroused?I wondered, swallowing as I tried to push away the strange hormonal response to Az’s words.This should not be turning me on.

Mmm, I disagree, a silky voice replied, one that had my breath catching in my throat.

Melek?

Hello, sweet angel. Having fun in Ajax’s little paradigm?he murmured into my mind, his mental voice holding a hint of breathlessness that nearly made me frown.

Only, my teeth sank into my lip in the next instant as a fresh wave of fiery need licked down my spine.Melek!

Oh, how I can’t wait to make you scream my name like that,he returned on a pant I could practically feel against my skin.Fuck, Ty is going to rip me apart, Cami. And do you want to know why?

I swallowed, an image slamming into my mind of what Melek’s words meant. Because the sensual way he’d voiced them told me he hadn’t meantrip me apartin a violent way, but in a sensual one.

You… you’re having sex right now,I realized.That’s… that’s what I’m feeling?

Yes,he whispered back to me.Ty is fucking me while thinking about you.

My lips parted.What?He couldn’t possibly mean that.Why…? Why would he be thinking about me?Did Lucifer know about the dreams?

Melek seemed to.

Had he told the Hell Fae King?

Had he learned about them through Melek?

My heart skipped a beat. I didn’t want Lucifer knowing about those forbidden fantasies. Primarily because I couldn’t seem to control them. Or deny them.

IhatedLucifer.

And he had made it very clear that he hated me, too.

Ajax’s furious growl yanked me out of my mind, returning me to the argument unfolding before me. “You should have fucking told me! It was my damn job, Az.”

I blinked.What?

“Your job as Warden was to guard the prison. My job was to tame the beasts. You were never in any danger.”

“Oh, fuck you,” Ajax spat back. “This isn’t aboutdanger. It’s about keeping the truth from me. For nottrustingme.” He shoved Az back with both palms on his chest, causing my eyebrows to fly upward.

“It wasn’t?—”

“I spent ten years guarding Nightmare Fae,” Ajax snarled, interrupting Az. “Now you tell me this bullshit about reneged deals and black souls? That those beasts weren’t real Nightmare Fae?”

Oh. My brow furrowed.Ajax never knew about the black souls?

Ah, is that the direction Az’s conversation went with Ajax?Melek asked with a pleased sigh.I bet Ajax is taking that reveal well.

He looks ready to kill Az,I whispered back to him as Az and Ajax squared off before me.

“What do you want from me?” Az was demanding after saying something I’d missed while talking to Melek. “You want to tame me again? Hit me? Hurt me?”

Kill or fuck?Melek mused into my mind.Because I prefer fucking. Which brings me back to why Ty is fucking me now…
