“Shh, I have you, Quinn.” His voice was rough as if he had been the one screaming for Gods knew how long. Tears slipped free, the burn at the back of her eyes an afterthought. Shameless, she tucked her head under his chin and wrapped her limbs tight around him. Touch never faltering, he kept the passes long and smooth, almost this side of too strong. It was grounding, as if she needed to be kept tethered to this world until she could inhabit her own skin better.”

“Easing her back, Er’it looked down upon the starry-eyed female. Both of them panting, eager for far more. Far from lucid she stared up at him in wonder, the Omega’s purrs scratchy from his harsh treatment of her delicate throat. “You’re going to ruin me,” Er’it murmured, thumb tracing the pouty redness of her lower lip.”

“A beast in a man’s skin, a monster she didn’t recognize under the syrup thick stains of blood and gore sheeting from his skin. Tobias’ wild green eyes swung up to meet Quinn’s. Lip curled up, showing the vicious edge of his teeth, he took in Quinn’s horrified face. Whatever else he saw snapped something inside of him. Something she felt torn asunder deep inside her heart. Pain, yes, but so much more. Possessive, protective. Swimming through it all the sharp edged sword of his love.”

“Aida sighed at her melancholy thoughts and tipped her head back to look at the sky stained with brilliant purples and blues tinged with vicious red. Cheery gold limned the low-hanging clouds with stars beginning to peek out from their hiding. Night would fall fast here in the mountain’s shadow, though less so than when they traveled at its feet. Squinting up at the vast expanse, she tried to pick out the stars she might recognize. Uncertain if they had names as so many things seemed to in this frightening world, she looked only for the brightest among them.The wind picked up, riffling through her hair and sending it into a tangled banner behind her as she continued to look up at the sky. Smiling as a break in the trees gave her an unimpeded view of the deep indigo scattered with diamonds. A few hours yet, and it would look just like her eyes. Midnight black with twinkling blue. The only of their kind that she knew of.”

It tingled against his skin and crackled along his senses. Power unlike anything he ever dreamed. An Omega. So rare as to be near extinct. Their numbers so diminished that what he knew of them came from dusty tomes and whispered rumors.”

“She felt alive. On fire and alight in the night dark sky, another star among the heavens. Soaring through a tempest raging around her. The knowledge that she was safe, no matter the way he roared and tore at the bedding, only added fuel to the blaze searing through her. She cried out his name as the twisting clench of muscle became painful, the looming plunge into oblivion coming ever closer.”
