Page 60 of Their Lethal Pet

Because how could they harm her?

She’s fucking stunning. So damn perfect.So mine.

Gods, that claim is a visceral response from deepwithin, my soul suddenly feeling oddly at ease by her mere presence.

I take a step forward, drawn to her in a way I can’t quite explain.

She’s so soft and corruptible. My inky strands begin to unwind, the urge to touch her consuming me.

Just one stroke,I tell myself.Right there against her porcelain cheek.

My smoky wisp gently does what I say, sending an electric jolt through my body.

I want more.

So. Much. More.

But I want her awake when I truly touch her. Awake and willing.

And more than happy to submit.

A growl threatens to rumble in my chest, causing me to take a step backward.

I need a shower. A cold one.

Or maybe a hot one…

She was the last one to use the shower. That means it’ll smell like her. All sugar and spice.

Yes.

I don’t walk to the shower; I teleport there and inhale her natural fragrance. It reminds me of strawberries and cream, an intoxicating combination that’s slightly tainted by the peppermint shampoo she must have used earlier.

I find the bottle and consider throwing it away.

But that scent will actually smell good on me.

I make a mental note to find something more appropriate for our pet’s next shower as I strip out of my boxer shorts. All my other clothes are on the floor of the living area, near where I slept last night.

I turn on the overhead sprays—of which there arefive—and grin when warm water instantly comes from the pipes.

“Excellent.” I step under the showerhead closest to me and groan as the droplets hit my shoulders. It’s the perfect pressure. But while it eases my muscles, it does nothing to help with the stiffness below. If anything, I’m somehow harder now.

Probably because I can smell Alina everywhere.

She spent a lot of time in here last night.

Did you touch yourself, darling?I wonder as I tip my head back to dampen my hair.Did you think about Orcus’s knot?

I’ve never met an Omega before, but from what I understand, their sexual appetites are impressive. Especially when they go into heat, something Orcus said might happen now that Alina has met an Alpha.

Everything seems so uncertain as far as her origin is concerned, her mortality confusing the Mythos Fae Alpha greatly.

I don’t really mind the bizarre situation, though.

I just want to play.

Particularly with a beautiful little dark-haired vixen.
