Bite Me

  She shook her head but didn’t break his gaze.

  “Give me your love, your trust, Jada. What you are is enough. Always.”

  She swallowed, and her eyes shimmered with tears. “I didn’t mean to…I didn’t know I needed you, that there was this empty part of me, until you showed up. You already have my love, Ky Puru. I think I fell in love with you somewhere between the moment I saw you in the donut shop and that very first kiss. How can that be?”

  “It’s fate. Because that’s when I fell in love with you too. The rest has been candy on top.”

  She reached up and tied the torn edges of the cord around her neck. The blue shard settled between her breasts and a powerful wave of energy and blue light filled him to overflowing. He gripped Jada tight in his arms and she held him back just as hard.

  The power and light ebbed, and they were left holding each other, gasping for breath.

  “Whoa. I feel like we’ve just ridden a roller coaster while drinking energy shots and having mind-blowing sex,” Jada whispered.

  He laughed. “Didn’t we? Because, yeah. That pretty much describes that exact feeling.”

  Ky took a quick mental inventory of himself. A new layer to his power, his affinity with the water pulsed through him. Nothing else seemed to change except for the fact that his cock was once again rock hard.

  He kissed Jada, slipping his tongue in and out of her mouth, soft and slow. Their frantic fucking was fantastic, but he wanted to make slow, passionate, love to her now.

  He lifted her leg and slipped it over his hip, opening her to him.

  Her body was ready for him and he pushed his way into her pussy, filling her, making her his once again.

  Jada laced her fingers into his hair and dipped her head to his neck. In the same spot he’d marked her, she bit his skin, sucking his blood into her mouth.

  The euphoria of her bite hit Ky and he suddenly knew he was feeling what she felt, and she was experiencing everything he experienced.

  He felt her shock at how he felt about her, how he saw the beauty and strength in her where she did not. Ky was equally shaken by the fierceness of that spark of love inside of her for him. A few hours ago, he was sure he was only barely tolerable to her.

  She hid from love the same way he did.

  If you didn’t love anything, nothing mattered, and if it didn’t matter, it didn’t hurt if you lost it, or never found it in the first place.

  But they had found each other.

  Ky rocked into her body, needing to show her with every part of his being how much she meant to him, how much she mattered.

  Their mouths met for long, deep kisses. Their hands and fingers roamed each other’s bodies, until they were wrapped so tightly in each other that they were overwhelmed with bliss.

  They stared into each other’s eyes, sharing every pleasure and emotion their lovemaking drew out. This time when Jada came and her eyes locked on his, their souls locked together along with their bodies, he didn’t hold back.

  “I love you, Jada. God, I love you.”

  He came inside of her again, feeling her body pulse around him, loving how deeply connected they were in this shared moment.

  He didn’t want to move, to leave her body. The way she grabbed his ass told him she didn’t want him to either.

  With her head laying in the grass he had access to her neck and stroked his fingers languidly across her blue dragon mark. Never had he felt such an intense level of…pure contentment.

  Something scratched at his blissful state of mind, but he brushed it away. He wouldn’t let anything interrupt this time with Jada.

  “Enjoy fucking your whore, you blue bastard. It’s the last pleasure you’ll ever feel.”

  Nothing, except the devil himself.

  Allure and Other Natural Disasters

  Jada's senses were overwhelmed with the dark and evil presence that surrounded her and Ky. One minute she was full of light and bliss, sure for the first time that the glimmer of light that had always been inside of her was stronger than the darkness. Ky's touch, his absolute belief that she was his true mate, and the power of the love that he felt for her took away all her fears, cravings, and insecurities.

  The blackness of Kur-Jara's soul pushed out into everything around him. He was like a black hole but in reverse. It took everything she had inside to guard the growing ember of good Ky saw in her. She hid it behind the pure blue light of his soul shard. The one he had given to her freely

  Ky rolled away from her and onto all fours. Within a breath he shifted into the great blue Dragon. Water shot up from the Hot Spring and blasted their enemy.

  Kur-Jara met Ky's attack with a blast of fire and smoke that evaporated the water before it hit him.

  Her Ky wasn't dumb though. He used the second of time it took the black Dragon to defend himself to rain icicles of death down on Kur-Jara's black head.

  The black Dragon shrieked in pain as the ice sliced his scales from his body. Even his blood was black, turning to ash as it dropped from his skin.

  Jada had been dumbstruck by the sneak attack, but no more. The plan to use her and the other mates as bait was shot to hell, however, she could still use the only weapon she had against him.

  Ky’s lovemaking and his declaration of love had replenished her, and she had energy to spare. She would need every bit of it to make her allure strong enough to affect the black Dragon.

  Jada centered herself remembering her very first lessons from Leon on how to bring her allure to the surface. It was second nature to her now except she was used to only releasing a smidgen of it. Because of the lesson from Ninsy and her practice on Ky she understood what she had to do. It wasn't easy though. Her own instincts screamed at her not to overdo it, inherently understanding too much would be detrimental to her.

  Not that it mattered now. Ky was a beautiful light in this world where she was only a glimmer. It would be worth sacrificing herself for him. The shard at her throat buzzed uncomfortably at that thought.

  What had happened today had intertwined their souls. Something inside told her that either of them dying would severely affect the other one.

  So, no sacrifice of her life for his, but she would give everything up to that very edge.

  Jada spread her arms wide, her naked body feeling the remaining warmth of the day. She and Ky had whiled away most of the afternoon in each other's arms and bodies, and the black dragon had once again chosen just before dusk for his attack.

  That was fine she was comfortable with the dark and her nakedness only added to the sexual component of her magic.

  She released the first push of her allure aiming it towards the black Dragon. There would be no way it wouldn't also hit Ky, but she hoped that because of their mating it would not have the same effect on him.

  Neither even flinched or seemed to notice.

  Okay, she had inadvertently been too conservative. She opened herself up more and shoved the allure at them.

  Oh yeah, that got their attention. Both dragons looked over at her. Ky with a beautiful lust in his elongated blue Dragon eyes, and Kur-Jara with what she could only describe as irritated surprise.

  “Looks like your whore is trying to get my attention.”

  “She’ll get a whole lot more than that from you, piece of dog shit.”

  The black dragon lashed out at Ky with his tail, missing him by mere inches. Ky returned the attack with a blast of ice, encasing the black dragon’s wings and torso, dropping him to the ground.

  Jada loved how they were working in synchronicity.

  The black Dragon writhed on the ground and the ice covering half his body melted away. Jada needed to stop screwing around and give it all she had.

  She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and thought of Ky's kisses. She gathered the power of the allure into a swirling mass of magic, stepped forward to give this burst all she had, and threw it out into the world.

  Every living thing in a one-hundred-yard radius stopped whatever it
had been doing and focused on Jada. The birds in the sky, the insects on the ground, the fish in the water, and the dragons in battle.

  Both Ky and Kur-Jara dropped to their knees, incapacitated.

  Ky lost control of his dragon and shifted back into his human form. Kur-Jara snapped and growled but didn't get up or shift.

  “Ky, Are you okay?”

  His breathing was heavy, and he didn't respond.

  “Looks like you broke your boy toy, succubus whore.”

  “You really need to find another insult for me besides whore. Work on that, will you?”

  The black dragon's mouth snapped shut and his head tilted to the side as if he were actually working on the problem. Well, good. She was tired of hearing the vitriol coming out of his mouth. Asshole.

  Jada ran over to Ky and put her hands on his shoulders. “Ky, look at me.”

  He obeyed and when his eyes met hers the lack of anything behind them sent fear crawling through her like snakes on a plane. Horrible and not fun at all.

  “Ky, can you hear me?”

  Oh God, she had broken him. His only response was to stare at her boobs.

  “Slut, release me from your bonds.”

  Seriously? That's his new and improved insult? “Go fuck yourself, you piece of shit.”

  Kur-Jara glared at her as his great claws reached between his legs and jerked back and forth. Jada gaped at the dragon's literal interpretation of her words.

  He was jacking off right there in front of her. It was one of the most bizarre thing she had ever seen.

  “You like watching me, slut? Come over here and let me fuck you like a real Dragon, not your little pet.”

  She would need to be careful about what else she said to him. “You don't seem to understand that you are now under my control. So, you can continue to fuck yourself until I say otherwise.”

  He growled at her, but she did not fear him anymore. Normally her allure lasted for only a few seconds. Not today. Not after. She felt as though she could continue to pour the allure out indefinitely, and she still wasn't even using her full capacity. She'd held a small reserve back just in case. Good thing she had because Ky had his own cock in his hands stroking himself with the same instructions as she'd given the black Dragon.

  “Ky Puru, stop. Rest.” He still hadn't taken his eyes off of her chest and didn't even as he slumped into the fetal position on the ground.

  What the hell was she supposed to do with the two of these dragons now that she had them in her allure. All she done so far was make them touch themselves which when it came to battle strategy seemed pretty damn weak.

  Where were the rest of the Dragon warrior's? Damn, Jakob had told Steele and Dax to escort the women to Fleur's garden. That still left Jakob and Ciara, and she was a white witch with insane powers. Too bad she didn't have any way to contact them. When this was all over, she was getting a phone implanted in her goddamn head. She didn't keep up with technology, but surely that was a thing by now.

  Should she risk trying to send Ky back to the house? He did not seem in very good shape right now. Maybe she should try to exile Kur-Jara from their lives while she had him trapped in her allure.

  She sure wished they had hashed out more of their plan because she was not good at making decisions.

  Never had to.

  Ky had put his trust and faith in her, he thought she could do it.

  How would she know if she didn't try?

  “Tell me why you have sent your demon dragons after me.”

  Kur-Jara was still stroking himself and his breathing was heavy. “Because you are a dragon's mate.”

  That didn't tell her enough. “Why does that matter to you?”

  “Fuck you.”

  Was that his answer? Because he wanted to have sex with her? No. She'd simply asked him a question and hadn't demanded the answer. Kur-Jara’s will was strong enough to understand the difference it appeared.

  “Tell me why you want the dragons' mates.”

  Kur-Jara roared and his semen spilled out onto the ground.

  Ew.

  The great Dragon shook his head and released his cock. It slipped back into his protective scales and he rose up.

  “Too late, you whore slut.”

  He lashed his tail around and smoke poured from his nostrils. He stalked toward her.

  Dammit. With his release, the effect of her allure no longer controlled him. His sexual need was slaked. What a dumbass she was.

  She opened up that last chunk of her power that she had been holding back. Her instincts screamed at her not to do it. She had no other choice.

  The Black Dragon once again stilled, but she could feel that her hold on him this time was tenuous. She needed to act fast or both she and Ky were dead.

  Before she could get her next demand formulated and out of her mouth, Kur-Jara spread his wings and a mass of demon dragons poured out of the shadows beneath them.

  She had no more power to give, and if she tried it would only take away from her hold on Kur-Jara.

  Fine. They could take her. Ky would come for her.

  The demon dragons raced toward her, and she covered her head with her arms and curled into a ball. The whoosh whoosh whoosh of the demon dragons running past her knocked her over. Not a single one of them even touched her though. She popped her head up to see what the hell was happening.

  The demon dragons surrounded Ky and dragged him toward the black Dragon.

  “No. Don't touch him.” Her voice was a harsh screech into the air. “Let him go.”

  The demon dragons completely ignored her. She had no control over them.

  “Ky, fight back.”

  For the first time since she'd landed him with her allure he seemed alert. He thrashed, and his scales shimmered over his body. His talons came out, but he didn't shift.

  Had she done that to him?

  Ky battled the demon dragons, killing a few before they pinned him to the ground. There were simply too many.

  “Your worthless powers are fading. And I grow tired of your bullshit. A Dragon wyvern is not worth nearly as much as a mate to me, but it will be fun to torture him.”

  The demon dragons disappeared into the shadow along with Ky.

  “Stop. Bring him back. Take me instead.”

  Her words met empty air. The black Dragon was nothing more than a puff of smoke.

  The light from the soul shard around Jada's neck flickered and died. Oh God. Did that mean he was dead?

  She wouldn't believe that. They had a deeper connection than that and she was sure she would know if they had killed him.

  It would do her no good to search the area for Ky. She knew they had taken him below. Whether he was in the actual underworld or not, he would be in a literal hell.

  Jada turned and sprinted across the lawn toward the house. Steel and Fleur owned more land than she'd originally understood. Ky had flown them to the spring in a moment, but it took Jada twenty minutes of running before she even saw the house. Her lungs and muscles were screaming at her to stop. Her adrenaline pushed her like a drill sergeant to keep going.

  She threw open the front door and yelled out. “Help, anyone here? Help, they've taken him. Please, someone help me.” She ran through the house throwing open doors, finding no one.

  Where the fuck were Jakob and Ciara?

  Had the demon dragons come here too?

  She could count on one hand the times in her life she’d been completely alone. When she’d left the coven a little more than a week ago and that once when her mother had died. The hours before Leon had arrived, she’d been scared, but it was nothing like the fear currently eating her from the inside out, like scarabs in a dead body.

  She called upon the one person who had been there for her then and ever since. The one who’d provided her with family and protection, kept her safe from bullshit like this.

  If she’d just been content to eat donuts and take the taste of the sex and blood her coven coveted, Ky wouldn’t be??
?

  She couldn’t think of what horrors the Black Dragon could be inflicting on him.

  Jada smashed a coffee mug someone had left on the table and grabbed a chunk of the broken porcelain. “Bring forth the one who lies upon sleepers, the incubus Leonard, with whom I share the pact of blood and lust.”

  She used the raw edge of the broken mug, slicing her hand, letting the blood drip to the ground. “Receive this offering. I give it truthfully and willingly.”

  Smoke rose up from the floor and Leon’s form drifted up from the swirls.

  “Jada. We have got to get you a fucking phone. Damn it, why are you naked? Isn’t that fucking dragon taking care of you?”

  Jada ran into Leon’s arms and he slipped off his jacket, covering her before he gave her a hug. “Shh, shh, shh. I’m here.”

  “They took him. I couldn’t stop them. I tried, but I’m not strong enough.”

  “Oh, tsk, tsk. You’re stronger than you think. You just haven’t had a chance to spread your wings. Now tell me what happened.”

  They sat on the nearest couch and Jada told him the main details from the second she met Ky until the Black Dragon disappeared, leaving out the epic sex bits. They wouldn’t have bothered Leon, he was an incubus after all, but they were private intimacies between her and Ky.

  “That stupid bastard and their god-damned family feud.”

  The door to the house slammed open and Jakob and Ciara burst through the door. She was supporting him, and he was covered in blood. Dax was right behind them, then Fleur and a limping Steele.

  “Where’s Ninsy?”

  Jakob slumped into the nearest chair. “She led the remaining demon dragons on a chase. Told us to retreat here. Where’s Ky?”

  All Jada could do was shake her head.

  Jakob straightened up and scowled. “Where is Ky?”

  “Kur-Jara has him.”

  Jakob, Steele, and Dax were on their feet surrounding her and Leon in an instant. “Who are you?”

  Leon had very old power that he could turn on these dragons and their mates in an instant if he wanted. “An ally and Jada’s father. Her mother entrusted her safety to me until she was claimed. She knew Jada was destined to be a dragon’s mate.”
