Chapter 13

Altair

Verity is warm in my arms, pliable and soft. She moans against my lips and the sound sends a thrill coursing through me. For the past week while I’ve been resting from my wounds, all I’ve been able to think about is Verity. When I’m not thinking of her, I’m obsessed with finding ways to keep her safe. Today’s incursion from Maaz has only made it even clearer that verity can never be safe until she breaks my curse.

Her fingers tangle in my hair, drawing me from my thoughts and back to the woman in my arms. I take a ragged breath and sweep my tongue through her mouth, tasting her. A shock of pleasure hits me as her fingers gently trail the curve of my pointed ear. I shudder uncontrollably and a groan escapes my lips. Fae ears are intense erogenous zones, and Verity has stumbled upon it to my pleasure.

I need her desperately. A week of keeping my distance and quelling my attraction for her was annihilated tonight when I saw her in this gown. I squeeze her ass tightly, pushing her against my pelvis. She gasps softly and curls her body into me, as if she needs me as much as I need her. But she couldn’t possible crave me to the same extent; every cell in my body is crying out for her.

Suddenly, she lurches away, panting. I drop my arms from around her, letting her create distance between us. My breath is coming in short, loud gasps as I reel from the kiss. It was heavenly being so close to her, being able to express how I truly feel for her. She stares up at me, eyes wide and impossibly blue. I offer her a smile, my heart soaring.

“No slap?” I tease.

She bites her lip and opens her mouth to speak before closing it hesitantly. I grow wary, watching her process the kiss. Her brows are furrowed and she’s biting down her lip so hard I worry she may draw blood. I reach for her, my fingers skimming the soft skin of her arm. She shivers but doesn’t relax the way I expected.

I frown. I may have pushed her too far, but I felt closer to her this last week than ever before. But perhaps the feelings between us haven’t progressed as quickly as I thought. I smooth back my hair and drag a hand over my jaw.

“Goodnight, Verity,” I say reluctantly.

I know she needs to rest; she’s kept strange hours for me this past week. But I don’t want to leave her tonight. A small corner of my heart desperately hopes that she’ll invite me in, that she’ll ask me to stay with her. But the inexplicable expression on her face tells me otherwise. Her forehead creases even deeper at my words, and she smooths her hands over her skirts nervously.

“What is it?” I ask, reaching for her.

She takes a smooth step back, her skirts rustling. “You shouldn’t touch me,” she murmurs.

A cold chill spreads through my chest and any shred of hope I had is torn.
