At the same time, his five snakes detached, then clamped down again, their fangs sending another wave of heat through my body and making me see stars as ecstasy pounded through me again.

I lost track of how many orgasms I had, of how many times Vorzak’s snakes bit me, and of how many times he sent me spiraling from just the feel of his cock moving inside me.

The night passed in a blur of hedonistic pleasure until sometime in the early hours before dawn, Vorzak finally emptied himself inside me with a deafening roar.

I barely registered the sting of his snakes striking again, for my attention was caught by the much greater stabbing pain, followed by searing waves of heat, that came from Vorzak sinking his fangs deep into the swell of my breast,finallyclaiming me as his own.

Though we eventually fell asleep ineach other’s arms, exhaustion winning out, my sleep was restless, filled with hazy dreams of people being thrown into endless shadows.

Shadows whose whispers echoed through my dreams.

He cannot be defeated.

He’s coming.You must fight.

He will always win.

He’s coming.You must fight.

You will always fail.

He’s coming.You must fight.

You’ve already lost.

It’s time to fight.

Yield to him.

Fight!

I woke with a start, heart pounding, then subsiding as I realized for once, I wasn’t waking alone.

Vorzak still had me wrapped in his arms, and his snakes, though their eyes were closed, were gently petting me as if they’d felt my agitation even in their sleep.

A glance at the bedside clock told me we’d only been asleep a couple hours.

Vorzak stirred behind me.“Mate,” he rumbled, then rolled me over and kissed me.

Heat barreled through me and the shadowy dreams faded as I sank into the bliss of being with my mate once more.

Sweet.

Mate.

Love.

Kisses.

More.

I pulled back from the scorching heat of Vorzak’s kisses to murmur against his lips, “What did you say?”

He shook his head and captured my lips again with his.

Sexy.
