driven by jealousy that shouldn’t even exist. Slowly, I released it and exhaled, calming my reaction to them. The man was infuriating. He confused me, and yet every part of my body heated for him. This wasn’t the first time the sight of Knox with another woman had made me a little unhinged.

My creature perked up, noting his presence. Her attention focused on the hand touching Knox, and I fought against the rattle that threatened to explode from my chest. Closing my eyes to prevent her from going bat-shit-crazy, I shoved the noise she wanted us to make in warning, down. Managing her was hard enough without Knox nearby. We wanted to murder in him in one breath and ride him like a pony in the next. It was part of my bipolar sparkling personality I was cursed to bear.

“Not cursed, blessed! Knox was blessed with a nice cock and the skill to wield it perfectly!” my creature crooned. “Remember the cobwebs and spiders? We don’t want that, do we?”

“Cursed! You are random as fuck, Creature. We also talked about spiders and the fact that we never talk about spiders, remember?”

“He touches her again; we eat her face! He only touches us! He is ours.”

“Quiet, Creature. Knox doesn’t know we’re here yet. Let’s keep it that way.”

“I am hungry and horny, and he is right there. He fucks good. We need a good fuck, Aria. Let’s fuck him and then eat him! It’s a win, Aria. Feed me his dick!” She was excited, vivaciously so, at the idea of being so close to that arrogant prick. She did not understand how toxic he was or how deadly he could be.

“He also wants our head, which he’d probably take while he fucked us. He doesn’t need our head attached to our body to use us. Remember? It’s a perfect head, Creature! We like our head, and we need it to keep breathing. Therefore, Knox is bad, very bad for our health and life expectancy.”

“He’s done bad things to our body that felt good, but he’s not always smart. We will rock his cock, and he will want to keep our head so we can breathe. Then we can ride that glorious cock whenever we want. He’s so dreamy, and I want to feel his cock pulsing within us… please, Aria? Just one quick rut, then you can fight him!” she sighed, and I cringed inwardly, which only made her laugh.

“That doesn’t even make sense. ‘He did bad things, so let’s fuck him?’ Who thought like that? It’s a wonder we’re even still alive, Creature.” I rolled my eyes, and she snorted from within as if I were slow in the head, which infuriated me. “Now, stop thinking about our vagina because this is a serious situation!” She snickered inside my head, and I groaned at the sound.

We’d been at odds for the last couple of weeks. She’d eaten a few of the dark witches we’d come across, and of course, she left me standing holding the dead body part the moment she’d had her fill of their corpses. She’d taken partial control of my body, tripping me repeatedly, trying to get us captured as we ran from Knox. She and I were at war over the need consuming us, and eventually, it was going to end badly for me. She’d be sated, but I’d be his prisoner, which my creature wouldn’t mind in the least if it meant a daily diet of Knox.

“He’s approaching, and we don’t want him alerted that we’re here yet. Do try to behave, and I’ll promise to let you out to play soon.”

“To fuck Knox? I am so horny, and you haven’t used our vagina correctly. You might as well have sewn it shut!”

“It’s our vagina. It’s a shared space, remember? I’m not fucking random cock because you want to… what did you call it?”

“Paint our vagina!”

“Right. Paint our vagina. Again, who thinks like that?”

“We need his scent. He smells so good. Can you smell him? Knox is alpha to his core, which means he needs to be in our vagina. Put him there, or I will find a way to fall onto his dick.”

“Are you seriously threatening to get me fucked right now? I’m about to face off with Knox, his army, and a castle full of witches behind us. Can you, I don’t know, maybe not worry about getting fucked or painting our pussy right now? Our unused vagina is literally the least of
