She looked wary.
“You’ve never dealt with an incubus before, have you?” He frowned at her and stroked his hand down his cock, keeping it hard for her. The feel of her juices coating him was enough to have him hard as steel again.
She shook her head.
Payne smiled to reassure her. She was crazy for leaping into this without knowing what would inevitably happen at some point.
“Under the best of circumstances, asking me to do this is like asking me to stop my heart beating. Impossible. This isn’t the best of circumstances. This is the worst.” He couldn’t believe that he was going to say this and he wasn’t sure what her reaction would be, but he needed to put it out there. “I haven’t been inside a woman in nearly a century.”
Her eyes widened, wonderfully startled. “A man?”
He shot that one down with a glare and pink tinted her cheeks again.
“Why?” she whispered and her eyes darted between his, searching them for the reason.
“Just because.” He didn’t have a reason to give her, not one that wouldn’t reinforce what she already felt about him.
Her eyes narrowed and he again had the feeling she was seeing right through him, down to his tainted soul.
“You wanted to erase that part of you. You wanted to make it go away and you couldn’t, so you chose to deny your incubus hungers in the hope it would fade away... you really hate it, don’t you?”
Too close to the mark. Payne glanced away, settling his eyes on the ceiling. He could feel her staring still, probing and opening wounds that stung. He wanted her to drop the subject and accept what he had said. Some part of him had thought she would be pleased that he hadn’t been with a woman this way in a very long time, but he wanted to do this with her.
What the hell did that mean anyway? Was he already too far gone to save himself? That phantom’s words still haunted him.
He dropped his gaze to Elissa and the softness of her expression took his breath away. Only one other woman had ever looked at him like that and he didn’t want to draw parallels between her and Elissa. It hurt too much.
“We don’t have to do this.” Her voice was small but he felt as though she had shouted that.
“Oh, little witch, we’re doing this.” Payne grabbed her hand and wrapped it around his cock, forcing her to stroke. When she began moving her hand, he released her and let her continue, his length hardening for her again.
“Are you doing this just to get the ring for your friend?”
Now wasn’t the best time for questions, they broke his concentration and he needed all of it to mentally and physically prepare himself for what Elissa proposed, but he would answer this one.
He looked into her eyes and hid nothing from her, because she looked as though this had stopped being a game for her too and she felt as lost and uncertain as he did.
“No.”
A tiny smile curved her lips and she stroked him harder, tearing a groan from his throat that ended on a growl.#p#分页标题#e#
He took her hand away.
“I’ll do my best to hold back my hunger.” He tore the condom packet open, took it out and rolled it onto his cock.
“But that defeats the purpose of this.”
Payne felt like asking whether the purpose of this night was ever anything other than her getting into his pants but held his tongue.
“Fine, you’ll get your taste of my incubus side, Witch.” He grabbed her waist and pulled her onto his body. She straddled his hips and sat back, her heat trapping his cock between their bodies. “But I warn you that if my markings change colour, you have to stop. Promise me.”
She swallowed and nodded. When he had warned her about them earlier, he had noticed her curiosity and had known that she wanted to push him too far to see what would happen. This time, he would spell out what awaited her.
“You shove me over the edge, and there is no coming back, and I can’t guarantee I won’t... I don’t want to kill you.”
Her eyes shot wide and her fear flowed over him, intoxicating him and drugging him as heavily as her sexual energy did. Message received. He doubted she would risk it now. Curiosity might just kill his kitty.
Elissa rose off him. Payne held his cock, poising it between them, and watched as she sank down onto him. The erotic sight of his erection easing into her, coupled with the breathy gasps of pleasure she unleashed, sent his temperature rocketing again.
She settled on him, her eyes closed in bliss that ran through his veins. His fae markings shifted in hues of red and pink, colours of passion, but already patches of gold and blue tainted it. Elissa opened her eyes and frowned. Payne smoothed his expression to hide his apprehension from her. She went one better, erasing it by rising off him and driving back down again.
