“No, you won’t electrocute me. Why? Will you try?”
My question has her glaring at me. “Of course not, I’m not like that,” she snaps.
“I know. I’m teasing you,” I say, not wanting to rile her up. “But as I was saying, we are not like your normal man out there. Our abilities are more enhanced, and so is our strength, sight, and hearing.”
“You are saying that you can hear and see better than most people?”
“What I am saying is that we aren’t exactly human, and before you ask, I’m not an alien.” My statement suddenly has a grin splitting across her face.
“That’s a shame. Aliens sound pretty cool right now.” Her joking has me growling playfully. I see she doesn’t believe me and thinks that I am teasing her, but with time, she will understand that what I am saying is true.
“It’s true, Siena, and as Elementals, we only have one mate. When we find that woman she will bring light into our life, and peace to our soul. You are that woman for me.” My words have a giggle escape her lips.
“In my case, I will bring the electricity that you will need to get your own light bulb to light up your life,” she quips with a laugh.
“I’m being serious, and with time, you will see that I am telling you the truth. Like it or not, you are mine.” Those words are more intense than I wanted, but she needs to understand that she is mine and no matter what, we will work it out and make it work.
“I have a drop-dead handsome guy telling me I am his. You think I’m going to complain?” she asks with a raised brow and a grin on her face. I can tell she still thinks I’m teasing her It’s time to show her that she’s mine, because it doesn’t look like words are doing the trick.
Raising my hand, I slide it behind her neck, seeing her expression sombre immediately, as she sees me nearing. When our lips touch, it’s a feeling like I have never had before, it’s like coming home. It’s at this moment that I decide that no matter what, Siena is my future and everything that happened in the past is the past.
Her murmur of pleasure has my cock straining against my zipper. I don’t know when I will be able to make Siena fully mine as we still need to understand what was done to her back and try to help her. But I do know that she is mine and even if I haven’t consummated our union yet, she will understand that. “You are mine!” I growl against her lips before deepening the kiss.
Doing this here is uncomfortable and crazy, but she is my woman, and it is time that she realizes what that means. I feel her hand against my heart, the warmth like a scorching poker reminding me of Isabela, which I promised to love for the rest of my life. I break the kiss abruptly, our hearts racing, and I realize that they are in rhythm with each other, beating to the same tune, to the same rhythm.
I’m sorry, Isabela!
