When I didn’t move, trapped between knowledge of what this place was with the denial of the truth, he reached forward and held out this hand. “Come. Let’s get you inside.”
Just because I understood this world a little better, thanks to Sully explaining how his magic worked, didn’t mean I could force my brain not to buy into this seamless hallucination.
My hand rose to meet his.
Our fingers touched.
My knees buckled.
He dragged me inside and slammed the door.
The second the outside world vanished, I no longer cared about my surroundings. A generic lounge with two black couches, a TV, large picture windows to a pretty garden, and a white kitchen in the distance.
I didn’t care about any of it because the man shoved me against the door and pressed his body to mine.
I whimpered as he rocked his erection into my belly.
“Fuck, I’ve missed you.”
I wanted to ask how he thought we knew each other. Why he cared so much about his son’s girlfriend, but his lips crashed onto mine.
Instantly, the final army I had against the elixir’s invasion threw down their weapons and yielded. It felt as if my chest cracked open, revealing a too-fast heart, unzipping me from the inside. My need was exposed, dripping in bright red blood and crackling gold lust. I lusted right down to my bones. Desperation infected me from the top of my scalp to the bottom of my feet.
He could touch me anywhere, and I’d probably come.
“I want you so fucking much. I think I’ve always wanted you. How can I exist knowing that you exist? How can I survive if I don’t take you for my own?”
His lips bruised mine.
I moaned into his kiss, into his declarations, swept away by my body but held hostage by my mind.
Sully.
I only wanted to kiss Sully.
Not this man.
Not Scott.
Not anyone.
Just Sully.
His tongue swept over mine, and my thoughts crackled with bad reception, sending hissing snow, burying my misplaced loyalty with yet more uncontrollable elixir.
I didn’t know what I was most upset about.
That I would willingly kiss a stranger back. That I would clutch at his hair and rock my hips into his, or that I felt disloyal to Sully…not Scott.
That my heart cried because I wanted the monster who bought women to be the one kissing me, not my caring, travelling partner who shared my life goals and destinations.
What sort of minx did that make me?
What a goddamn harlot.
I hated myself.
I wanted to punish myself.
So I kissed him harder, throwing myself at the stranger’s mercy.
With a guttural groan, he ripped himself away, reeling backward as if I’d done the wrong thing submitting to him. “No…we can’t.”
I blinked. My lips burned from his. My breasts heaved with breath. With him gone, all the urgency and potency from my own desire returned tenfold, and my fingers fluttered to finish his task.
I curled my hands, doing my best not to pinch my nipples, or to rub my clit in pain.
“You’re off-limits. You’ve always been off-limits.” The man paced with his hands buried in his hair. “I can’t have you. It would kill me if I did…” He rubbed his mouth. “And it would kill him…my son.”
I struggled to follow, resorted to a writhing, wanting mess. “Why…why am I off-limits?” My voice was unrecognisable—thick and throaty, lusty and seductive.
“Because you’re his!” He spun to face me, his hands falling helplessly to his sides. “Because you’re dating my son.”
“Oh.” I blinked again, everything hazy with the need to be taken and used. “Is…is he here?” Had I messed up this daydream? Was I supposed to sleep with this man’s son instead? How was I supposed to know what my service was to be if Sully never told me who to pleasure?
I didn’t want to pleasure anyone else.
I wanted someone to pleasure me.
That was the whole purpose of elixir—to take away my morals and leave me a gasping, begging beast.
Well, I was one.
I’d reached the end of my limit.
I had nowhere else to go, nowhere else to fall.
I needed to come.
Now.
Immediately.
Please!!!
Claustrophobia wrapped me with tight thorny claws, and I reached for the tie around my throat. Tugging it off, I threw it to the floor, then worked feverishly on my shirt buttons.
“Wha-what are you doing?” The man stopped and stared. His gaze turned to blazing blue gems. “Please…stop.”
God, what was with this messed-up illusion?
Stop?
I couldn’t stop!
That was the problem!
Sully had turned me into a monster who needed, positively needed to be fucked. I didn’t care how or who by…only that someone did.
Stepping toward him, I worked on my skirt. The button popped off my hip, followed by a zipper. I shivered as I stepped out of the grey material, leaving it pooled on the floor.
I kicked off my heels.
He jerked, his gaze locking onto my legs. My bare legs. The only thing I wore were my white high socks, white shirt, and whatever underwear this fucked-up fantasy had given me.
