Chapter 13

Oryx

She is mine.

I have no idea how it occurred, but somehow I've breached the barriers of her mind, and now I can infiltrate it at will. The mind is a perilous terrain, full of shadows and secrets. I've slammed the gates shut against my Lord and plunged headstrong into the depths of my pet’s psyche.

She trusts me, she is fond of me just after a few days. My pet holds great regard for me just as I do for her.

I knew she would come to trust me and care for me. It will only continue to grow.

My sole torment is the looming threat that my Lord will tear us apart. The question that haunts me is whether I possess the courage to wrench her from everything I've ever known to ensure she remains by my side.

The answer was undeniably clear, yes. I was ready to abandon him and this estate, seeking refuge elsewhere. Now, with Vesper's declaration that she intended to stay by my side, having no home to return to and eager to delve into this connection with me…not to battle against it…her resolve only fueled the fight to keep her.

The ecstasy she provided, to soothe the ache of my desire, was beyond words. I had never imagined such overwhelming bliss. To release upon her skin, to see it go down her throat, across her cheek and mark her body, was enough to rouse me again.

I wanted to paint it into her skin, to keep my scent on her.

I wanted to do much more with her, but I refrained. I need her to accept me for all that I am. I have done well in showing her I am patient, caring and kind. I am the provider, the monster that will protect her in all ways.

My chest vibrated. I had delved deep into the recesses of her mind, uncovering new words, tantalizing phrases, and provocative ideas about... sex. What we had shared the night before was an intense act of intimacy. To her, those sacred moments were hallowed, reserved for only the most profound connections, something she would never normally indulge in with others.

She did have sex with a human once before.

A consuming fire of jealousy spread through me. The thought of another man having been with her drove me to the brink of madness. I yearned to obliterate them from existence. A singular focus gripped my mind: to hunt them down and suck the blood from his body completely.

The reasons why she had him were reasons I didn’t understand. Men, males wanted a female’s pussy to be theirs. She didn’t want anyone to claim it.

But I will. I will take what is mine. No one else will have it. My pet, my Vesper, was mine now. Her scent still calls to me, harbors my very spirit. She calls to me even in sleep. I feel her fingers thread through my hair, her gentle touches keep me grounded.

She is my lavender, my sleep, my cloud.

I loved clouds.

I buried my nose deeper into the bedding, hunting for her smell. I wanted more of her scent to cover me. More from her pussy. I liked that word a lot. It was sweet, very female sounding. I wanted to see her… breasts. I wanted to lick them, I wanted to see her bare.

I wanted everything about her, I was obsessed.

I rubbed my horns where I found a spot where her arousal must have slipped onto the sheets. I wanted to be covered in her. I partially lied when I said my horns were part demon, they were actually an incubus but that shouldn’t matter too much right? She was overwhelmed, she didn’t need to know.

At the time I didn’t understand what an incubus was, so technically it wasn’t lying.

Right?

My cock grew harder as I thought about her mouth around my cock. “Mmm, Vesper. Can we do more of what we did last night? I will then let you sleep more?”

I groaned into the sheets as the chains clinked.

I raised my head and hooked my horns. I didn’t experience any nightmares last night.

My pet protected me from bad dreams.

“Vesper?” I lifted my skull and gazed around the room. Her scent lingered but I could not find her vessel. “Vesper?

My heart raced as I unlatched the chains and dashed to the washroom. I rushed inside, only to find it empty. Her clothes, which I had neatly folded the night before, were gone. I opened the door further and noticed her undergarments were missing as well.

I growled and kicked the door so it flew off its hinges.
