And that’s when I started to fall.
That’s when I felt myself letting go, and felt everything start to explode.
“Come for me, Princess,” he groaned, biting the skin of my neck and driving in deep. “That tight, perfect, sweet little pussy belongs to me now, and I want to feel it come all over my big cock.”
My back arched off the bed, the scream caught in my throat, and I shattered.
“Come for me, my love.”
The scream tore from my throat as the orgasm ripped through me like a hurricane. His hands let go of my wrists, and my hands flew to his neck, clutching him close and crying out into his chest as I came again and again.
Logan roared as he drove every inch of his monster cock inside of me. I felt it swell up, and suddenly, I could feel it. He bellowed as he came, his cock throbbing and pulsing deep inside as I felt the warm sticky jets of his cum fill me to the brim. His lips found mine, and he kissed me fiercely as he rocked inside, pumping into me until I was sure I would pass out from the pleasure blowing through me.
He didn’t pull out when he was done, he just reached up with one finger and lifted my trembling, gasping face to his.
“Mine,” he growled.
“All yours,” I whispered back.
Epilogue
Logan
I walked into the ball that night at King Lucian’s palace looking for the quickest way out, so I could slink away back to my darkness. I walked in there a man on the brink, about to lose the last of my humanity forever.
Instead? Well, instead, I found the light.
I found her. And through my Princess, I was saved.
The curse lifted that night, up in her room at the top of that tower under the glowing full moon. When I was young, and stupid, I’d been punished for chasing fleeting beauty, for looking for temporary escape in the arms of a stranger. I’d lost myself after that. I’d forgotten who I was, because I was convinced it was the nail in my coffin. I’d considered it the worst thing to ever happen to me
I’m not so sure anymore. Because however dark and bleak those years were, that fucking curse led me to Isla. And for that? Well, for that, it may as well have been the best damn thing to ever happen to me.
I found redemption in her arms that night, because there was nothing fleeting about my beautiful Princess. That was for always — hell, I knew that the second I saw her. But making her mine that night, and claiming her as my own, and promising her everything? Well, that was the key to it all. That was how I broke free of the curse that’d dogged me for years.
I can’t say “the beast” disappeared that night, because that’s not true. A monster did, that’s for sure. The anger and the blinding rage and the hate that’d filled me for years did go away that night. But the beast? Well, the beast I kept.
For her.
Because my princess loves bringing him out in me, and damn does she love when he breaks free and comes after her.
The morning after that night was interesting, I’ll say that. I’d wanted to walk down hand-in-hand with her and face her father like a man. Isla had assured me that was the noblest thing she’d ever heard, she just wasn’t quite on board with the “hi mom and dad I just lost my virginity last night. Good morning!” aspect of it.
Fair enough.
And besides, I looked like a fucking wreck, since I’d been up the entire night putting my hands and tongue on every fucking inch of her, and fucking her until neither of us could move.
Instead, stealing kisses on my way and even bending her over and making her come once more on my tongue, I slunk away out the secret passage and made myself scarce by the side entrance to the castle grounds.
…Which is where I caught Magnus, Cade, and fucking Caspian, looking as sleepless as me.
But, those are stories for another day.
The second I got home, changes were made. I called together the entire household staff, apologized for my bullshit over the last few years, and doubled all their pay. I tore the dark curtains off my chamber windows, and finally allowed my poor housekeeper to have at my dump of a room.
I showered. I shaved. I dressed like the damn king I was.
And then I went right back to Avlion. I went right back to Lucian’s palace, sent word that I needed an audience, and marched right into his offices upon admittance.
I told him everything. I told him his daughter was the light I’d been waiting for. I promised him the curse had been real, but that it was gone now. I swore on everything in this world and the next to do whatever it took to prove to him that I was the man for his daughter, and that I’d give her the world on a platter for the rest of her life.
