“
In one fluid, controlled thrust, his body joined with mine.
I was familiar with his size—his length and his girth.
What I wasn’t familiar with were the strange feelings evoked by the connection.
Right, it sang. Perfect, it crooned. A melody thrummed inside my chest, euphoric in a way that made me forget the reason for it was someone I didn’t even know”

hor

“
He grinned, then groaned when he reached my opening, and his finger slipped inside. “Fuck.” He sat back on his knees, pushed my skirts over my stomach, and barked, “Open these pretty thighs wide.” I did, and his chest rose as he hissed in a breath through his teeth. “Wider. Fuck yes.” With another groan, his eye flicked to my face as he began to lazily fuck me with his finger.”

it’s a need

“I’ve no patience for undergarments.”
Indeed, they then tore right over my center.
The claw retracted, replaced with the roughened pad of his finger at the top of my mound. Eye steadfast on mine, he took his time tracing the tear he’d made. I shivered. He swallowed thickly when he parted me. “Stars, you’re soaked.”

hmm

“ Before I could so much as glimpse the entirety of the bookshelves encircling the room, the wolf was above me, staring down at me intently as he dragged a hand up my leg.
My skirts were taken with it. As was my breath, hitching when he reached the apex of my thighs. Something sharp grazed my skin.”

hmm

“
“May I have you?” he whispered to my cheek, the gentle words a violent contrast to his unyielding grip. He held me as if unwilling to let me go, his hardness meeting my core through my skirts.
I didn’t think. I didn’t let doubts creep in. Not when he pulled back to look at me.“Please do.”
“Thank the fucking stars,”

well

“I want to know you.” His whispered words heated in every way I needed. “Why do I want to know you?”
I couldn’t answer that, nor why I burned hotter at the thought of it. At the idea of this war-hungry wolf wanting something in a way he perhaps hadn’t before and feeling confused by it.
I couldn’t answer, but I could do what I grew more and more desperate to.”

hm

“. “A hunter, are we?”. “If that’s what you need.”
It was impossible to stop the jolt of energy that scorched through me, heating things I’d thought might long stay cold.
His nostrils twitched a moment. He could scent it. A true predator.
A wolf.
I had a feeling this male could say anything, so long as it was wrapped in the right intention, and most would find surrender the only option.”

hmm

welll a bit predictable

WTF IS THAT ENDING

“
“You deserve to be happy,” “Let me try to make you happy.”
“Okay,” she whispered.
He pulled back, lips parting in surprise. “Really?”
She nodded. “I’ll go with you to Caelis. I’ll be your wife.”
Alex wasn’t the strategic choice; he was the safe one. The boy she could be herself with. The boy she could actually share a life with—because he didn’t want her ”

damn

“. “And you’ll dance with me?”
“That’s a given.”
“What if we fight all the time?”
“I’d rather fight with you than do most other things.”. “You would?”
“Yes.”. “And after we’re done fighting, I’ll take you to bed, and we’ll reconcile. In fact, I think we should fight every day just so we can make up every night.”

hm

“So you can decide if this is what you want. If I am what you want.”
She studied him in the light shining from her lantern. “All right. Tell me.”
This is a game, he reminded himself, his chest tight. It means nothing.
But if that were true, why did he feel like he was walking straight off a cliff, hoping he wouldn’t fall?”

hm

damn that was so good

“Say it,” he ordered when he withdrew from the kiss. “Say it and we will find a way.”
“Stay.” She surprised herself with the desperation in the word, with the emotion that welled up and broke free of her relaxed grip on her mind and her magic.
“Yes, my queen.” He cupped her face in his hands. “My heart.”

yeah

“One never knows how long a lifetime is,” he murmured, “so we should begin now.”
Naime smiled, a soft laugh escaping, and nodded. “Such a practical thinker,” she purred, flicking open the top button of his caftan. ”

weee

“I see. You helped me to reveal my pain and failures as a favor.”
“No.” He gripped her waist, pulling her forward and stroking her with his gaze. “I wanted them. Every single one. I wanted you to unleash yourself on me, so that you are mine, your secrets and hurts mine to keep and guard.”

ummm??

“
The one thing he wouldn’t think of, couldn’t, was her laughter, and the look in her eyes at the last moment. The way he’d burst with the awareness that all he wanted in the world was to make her laugh like that, make her forget her discipline and her burdens. And the choking, bitter realization he never would. It would be someone else. In a few days, a turn at the most, they would part.”

bro

“I understand,” “I am not unaccustomed to being denied the things I want. And neither are you.” He turned, rising to one knee as he did, and caught her chin in his fingers. He gave her a gentle, chaste kiss and ducked his head when he pulled back. “You are the most beautiful thing to ever happen to me.”
The cords he’d unwittingly tied around her heart tightened until they hurt.”

oh my god

“
He pressed her back to the ground, hitching one leg up by her hip and burying his face in her neck to muffle his groan. The sound of it, longing and need, filled Naime with pulsing desire. He lifted the weight of his hips off of hers and dug his hand beneath her ferace, lifting up her entari, then tugged up on her caftan.”

theyre dry humping oh

“ “Oh,”. Shadow pulsed in the air around him, magic bleeding from him, aroused and unleashed by his desire.
“Yes, oh,” he mocked gently, “you are murdering me by degrees.”“I didn’t mean to.”“I have wanted to touch you since I saw you…” Her memories of his half-clothed body snuck up and tyrannized her thoughts at the worst possible moments.”

fuck

“I am finished. You’ve ended me.”
Naime closed her eyes, trying to find her calm in the raging swirl of fading desperation. No one had ever written in any history book that a destruction mage’s kisses might be just as devastating as their magic. Or perhaps that was only Makram.”

fuck

“She had not imagined she would feel the clutch of desire that stole her breath.
His first kiss was brief and fierce, the softness of his mouth laid over hers, warmth and little shocks of sensation bursting all over her body, not just where his lips touched hers.”

fuck i miss him so bad

“ I see“—she swallowed back her trepidation—”shadow like dusk, the peace at the end of struggle, magic to break down barriers that imprison us.”
“You are necessary.” She mirrored his touch by lifting her other hand so his face was caught between her fingers. “Your magic is necessary. And beautiful, like night.”

fuck that’s beautiful

“ You are willing to stand for a belief that goes against lifetimes of hate and prejudice. That is the bravest thing I have ever witnessed.”

“It doesn’t feel brave, it feels necessary, as if I sat back and did nothing I might cease to exist.”

true

“All right, Sultana. I am at your side. Command me.”
She could not speak, at first.“I have never known anyone like you, who does not demand to be first. That is so brave and forceful, and so humble.” She could not understand why everything he said and did made her want to touch him so badly. To connect physically as she felt them connect emotionally.”

bro

“
“I am not a monster,” he pleaded. “I am not…I do not kill for the joy of it. Please don’t“—he took a shuddering breath—”please don’t think I’m a monster.”
“You are not a monster.” Naime stroked his cheek. He sounded so broken. She didn’t know how to help.
“I was waiting for you,” he sighed. “Talk to me. About anything.”

this is too good wtf

“I don’t think I believe that. Not after what I’ve seen of you.”
He wanted to know what she had seen, what she thought of him. When he’d arrived in the throne room after the tunnels, she had looked at him with fierce, bright admiration. He’d wanted to stride up the dais and kiss her, and afterward had been angry for even thinking it.”

hes such a puppy

“Most magic manifested as a suggestion of its power, so, swirls of ice and crystal in her cousin, fire in Kadir’s eyes. But she simply glowed, so beautiful he couldn’t look away from her.
“May I?” “Is it meant to do that?” She came too close, her nose almost touching his, so her words and breath touched his lips. “Draw me in as if I’ll never escape?”

ummm

“All magic is beautiful,” “and terrible. Do you not see the beauty in yours, or the terror in mine?” Her fingers brushed his cheek. “You can stop a heart, and I can stop your breath.”
She turned her hand, her thumb tracing a sinuous path over his jaw and down his neck, following the trail of magic as it moved across his skin. His breath did stop, but not because of her magic.”

im inlove with her wtf

“
This was good. He’d leave the palace, get away from her, so he could remember what he was, and what he was not. He’d remember the things he could attain. And the things that would forever be barred from him.”

ohh
