“Arrrrhhhhh!” A loud groan of pleasure slipped through my parted lips as my neck fell backward while Thane’s lips nuzzled my neck.

His two huge hands slipped up behind me to cup my breasts, his fingers wasting no time to twist the taut tips of my nipples as I dripped wet from my pussy, where Dhane had my legs spread wide on his broad shoulders, his head buried between my legs.

His fingers moved with rhythm as his tongue moved, lapping up every single drop of the juices I left off. As I neared the edge, electric buzzing ran from the tips of my toes straight to my brain as my toes curled, my mouth opened in a loud gasp and in the next second, the simultaneous piercing sensation in my neck and throbbing clit had my whole body jerking in pleasure as my voice rang out loud.

I felt so filthy but in a good way, having fantasized about having A vampire make my legs quake and now I got not just one but two!!

Finding out my own sister, boyfriend and best friend betrayed me was my last straw of undoing. It was supposed to be just one night of being reckless before I was sent off to my new master, but this one night opened a string of reactions that changed my once quiet life and all that I thought to be true about myself was not.

I was forced to fight my best friend to the death in a bloody arena, only to look up and realize the ruthless Demon Alpha watching us was my fated mate—and the immediate, dripping wetness between my thighs betrayed my hatred for him.

My breathing was constricted, my body bruised and battered. The heavy silver chains wrapped tightly around my ankles burned my flesh, but the physical pain was instantly eclipsed by the heavy, intoxicating scent of sandalwood and pure, aggressive male dominance.

I slowly raised my head, defying the rules, and locked eyes with the Demon Alpha. His striking eyes blazed with an unnatural fire, dropping down to stare at my torn rags that barely covered my heaving breasts. The moment our eyes met, a violent surge of energy coursed through my core, making my nipples harden instantly against the cold air.

"Mate," my wolf purred, practically whining for him to take us right there on the blood-stained dirt.

My blood ran cold, yet my body burned with a shameful, throbbing heat. The monster who bound my people in silver was the other half of my soul. He stared down at me, his gaze dropping to my parted, panting lips, his own chest heaving as his Alpha instincts battled for control. I could see the heavy bulge straining against his trousers as he took a step forward.

He didn't order my death. Instead, his voice thundered through the arena, dark and thick with lust.

"Bring her to my bed. Strip her. Now."
