Under the beauty and magic of the swirling Northern Lights, she had professed her love for Adam and promised to be his forever, and he had done the same. There was only one thing they needed to do to make it official, and that required far less clothing.
If she hadn’t planned on saving her dress and handing it down to their children and grandchildren, she would have told him to rip it off her body. Hell, she would have helped him.
“I have no idea, but we will figure it out together!” She laughed as Adam gave up on getting her out of her dress and tossed her on the bed.
“Starting today and every day after that,” Adam said, kissing a path up her thigh.
“In this life and the next,” she panted.
He swiped his tongue over her folds once, twice, teasing her before he unzipped his pants and slid deep inside of her.
“Sorry, doll. We’ll do more of that oral support stuff later. Right now, I need to be in you.”
“Mmm, that sounds good to me. Besides, there’s something more urgent that needs to be done right now.”
“What’s that?” he asked.
“You’re going to think I’m crazy, but every instinct I have in my body is telling me to claim my mate,” she said, pulling him closer. Her gums itched, her fangs lengthening. When she glanced at Adam’s face, she saw his icy-blue eyes glowing, and his fangs had descended as well.
“There’s nothing crazy about it at all, doll,” he said, pulling back and slamming into her again.
“Oh, God!” she shouted. Her instincts pushed harder and harder until she finally latched onto his neck and buried her face against the soft skin of his neck. She kissed and licked a path from his ear to his shoulder and back up. Her teeth grazed his skin.
“Do it, doll,” he groaned.
Before she could talk herself out of it, Joy allowed her instinct to take over. Her fangs pierced his flesh. Much to her surprise, her orgasm crashed over her and sent her flying to the moon. Her body shook like it was shattering into thousands of pieces and being rebuilt into a new, stronger version of herself.
With each thrust, his blood coated her tongue and throat. Just when she thought it couldn’t get any better, she felt his fangs slam into her neck, completing the mating ceremony.
When she finally came down from her orgasmic high, she ran her fingers over the puncture wounds in her neck. Her heart skipped a beat and another. Images of the life she had always dreamed about flashed through her mind. And for the first time in forever, she knew those dreams had already started to come true.
