CHAPTER 12

SHADOWS

SIERRA

Oh, boy. I’m playing with fire right now—and I like it.

Thanks to his essence, I already knew that Dagon was fiending for me. That’s part of the whole ‘mate’ gig. He’s spent five hundred years waiting to get lucky, but because my ferocious-looking demon is a growly sweetheart deep down, he’d rather sneak off to the bathroom to rub one out than admit that he’s dying for me to touch him.

I started to get suspicious this morning when I slapped my hand on his forehead and it felt like touching an ice cube. Unless he’d been feverish all along only for the fever to break last night, something was wrong.

Of course he denied it. A guy is a guy, right? He’d rather pretend he was fine than admit to me that he might be coming down with some kind of demon sickness.

And he did. Thanks to the two of us being mates, but not bonded mates, he’s not doing so well.

I’ve given up on acting like we’re not somehow connected. Between the strange flashes of Dagon’s life that keep filling my head and the way I sense his emotions more than mine sometimes, there’s definitely something going on here.

So I’m his mate. According to Dagon, an intimate touch should be enough to take the edge off.

If it was any other guy telling me that, I’d think he was just after a quick handjob and figured this was the best way to get one. Not Dagon. I might not be diving into his essence on purpose, but enough of it keeps eking out for me to know that he wouldn’t have confessed his problem if I didn’t kind of, sort of pull it out of him.

Not like I didn’t already guess. Like I said, I suspected something was up. This bond we have might not be finalized yet because I haven’t promised him forever—because, well, I can’t—but remember the whole ‘sensing his emotions’ thing?

When lust hits him hard, it does a doozy on me. He might be the one who keeps disappearing to the bathroom, but I’m the one who’s left squirming in her seat.

Is this what he means by mate sickness? Do I have it, too?

It would be so, so easy to blame my attraction to Dagon on that. Oh, sorry, I had the mate sickness. I couldn’t control myself… God, even in my mind, I sound just like Jared when I say shit like that.

I can control myself. I don’t do anything I don’t want to… and right now? I really, really want to get a firm grip on his erection, especially when—to my delight—he produces a bead of precome on the tip, already so close to coming just from my offer.

I’ll touch him. To help his mate sickness, to do something about mine… ah, who am I kidding. I don’t even think I have this sickness. If anything, it’s an echo of what Dagon is feeling mixed with the need I’ve been feeling for days now.

I wanted sex before I met Dagon.
