I’m panting by the end of it, clutching at the sheet for dear life, and we didn’t even have sex yet. Well, we almost did, but I clammed up. It seems despite my lust for them, and all of my urges, a deep part of me shivered with grief at the thought of allowing a man to touch in the same way Carden had.

I even tried to tell myself that he doesn’t love me anymore, that the man he was is dead. It wasn’t enough to allow him to take off more than my top. Uriel adamantly said he understood, was gracious, even, but his sweetness didn’t stop the blush now burning my cheeks.

“I’m so sorry,” I whisper, biting my lip.

He lifts his head off of my rapidly moving chest to gaze at me, and no matter how hard he tries to hide it, I can see the smallest amount of pity clouding his eyes. Anger stirs in my chest, making me want to rage and scream at the world, but I keep my mouth shut. It’s not his fault that I’m emotionally damaged by what happened with Carden. And I know that for certain now. None of them had anything to do with it. So why am I still so, so angry?

“Would you like to talk about it?” He asks, his incisors flashing in the light, still coated in a thin sheen of my blood.

The sight makes me lift two fingers to the spot he had bitten, a direct match to the one Michael had used. I snort softly, brushing my hands through his hair. Perhaps it’s a way of keeping my neck looking classy. It would be unsightly for me and the lords if I had four sets of holes lining my beautiful neck.

“Does that mean no?”

I look down at him, my mind blanking. “Hm?”

He smiles, but it’s soft compared to the brilliant one he graced me with earlier. “I asked if you’d like to discuss it, what makes you weary of sexual intercourse.”

I cringe, and he laughs. “Ugh, Uriel, don’t call it that. And no, I think that’s something I’d like to work out alone.”

“Suit yourself but know that my door is always open.”

He lies his head back down on my chest, and I resume stroking my fingers through his midnight hair. His skin is warm now that he has fed from me, and I can’t help but wonder why my blood in particular is the only type that warms them. It probably has something to do with that curse of theirs. To love over and over again, only to be forgotten while you’re chained to those memories like a prisoner. I shudder, remembering his words from earlier.

It spoke of our eternal suffering as rulers, cursed to love a human woman over and over again for millennia.

“What troubles you?” Uriel murmurs against my skin.

I sigh and decide to be honest. “Your curse. Did the prophecy have any type of loophole? Any fine print on how to stop
