“We have to go,” she says, looking up and realizing the same thing.
Right then a blacked-out car pulls up and the door flies open. “Get in!” Ravana shouts.
I tuck Juliet next to me, grabbing her bags, then we dive into the back. Ravana shuts the door and I look up to see Erik driving and Ezra in the passenger seat.
“Thank you,” I breathe as I pull Juliet close to me and the burning subsides.
“We couldn’t let you save her all on your own,” Ezra says, winking at Juliet.
“Are you okay?” Ravana asks, reaching out to Juliet and brushing the hair away from her face.
“Thanks to Kane. And to you guys.”
Ravana leans forward and gives her a hug, and I think everyone is surprised. “You’re our family now and we will all protect you.”
Erik pulls into the tunnel that takes us back to my house. Bishop is there waiting on us and he opens the door and makes sure Juliet is okay. I should be hurt that no one cares about me, but I kind of like that they’re all realizing that she is my mate and the one who needs to be looked after.
“We’ll leave you two alone. I think we could all use some rest,” Bishop says, and everyone agrees.
We plan to meet at his place tomorrow and discuss plans on possibly taking out the slayer. We’ll have to see what our options are and if moving to one of our other locations would be smarter. It’s a lot to think about, but right now the only thing I want to do is crawl into bed with Juliet.
When everyone is gone I carry her in my arms up to our bedroom and then strip her clothes off her.
“I could have lost you,” I say as I pull her close. “I love you, Juliet. You’re more than my mate, you’re the reason I breathe.”
“I love you, too,” she says as she takes off my clothes. “Make love to me.”
I kiss my way down her naked body and then between her legs where her scent is the sweetest. I lick between her wet lips and taste her soft pussy. Her body welcomes me as I put one leg over my shoulder to open her for my mouth.
“Kane, I missed you,” she moans and rocks against me. “Even for that short time you were gone. You can’t leave me again.”
“There’s something we can do,” I say as I kiss her pussy one last time before I carry her to bed. I lay her down and then climb on top of her, sliding my cock into her warmth. “If you drink from me, you’ll always have a connection to where I am. It’s how I was able to find you today.”
She moans as I slide deeper and my cock swells. Just the thought of her tasting me has me ready to cum.
“I want to,” she says as she looks up at me through heavy lids. “Show me how.”
I bring my wrist to my mouth and graze the skin with my teeth. It’s just enough to create a small cut and let her have a taste. I lean back and fuck her harder as I hold my wrist out for her to take it. She places her full lips against it, and when I feel her tongue run over the cut, cum pumps out of my cock.
Her pussy tightens as she sucks, and then her own climax hits. We’re both getting off on what she’s doing, and the exchange is mind-blowing. It’s like part of my soul is being pulled from me and she’s drinking it into her body. We are more entwined than we’ve ever been, and I can feel a piece of me growing inside of her.
My free hand slides down to her belly and I lay it there as I look at Juliet in shock. She releases my wrist with a satisfied smile and looks up at me with her eyes so full of love.
“Kane?” she asks when she realizes I haven’t moved. “Are you alright?”
I’ve never felt this happy before, and I fall down on top of her and hold her tight to me.
“I’m more than alright.” I nuzzle against her and kiss her neck before I look into her eyes. “We’re going to have a baby.”
Epilogue
Juliet
Months Later…
I slowly try and slip from my husband’s hold, but he makes a low growling noise when I move. I glance up at the fire burning in the fireplace and the glow illuminates his face. His teeth are actually showing. I have to fight a giggle. Maybe to others the sight of his scarred face might be terrifying, but to me he’s a giant teddy bear who is all bark and no— I giggle more because that is wrong. My mate is a lot of bite, but it’s a bite I rather enjoy.
