free, that same thumb ran along my chin and up to my lips, gathering some of his release I had missed. This was so he could force it back into my mouth. I opened immediately, and he grinned down at me before saying,
“My greedy little Princess.”
After that, well then…
I had to agree with him.

Hog Tied
After our foreplay in Lucius’ strange bathroom, I ended up lying back against him in the pool, whilst he played with my hair and we talked about a few of the things we should have already spoken about…like his past.
Of course, this started when he finally asked me what it was the Keepers of Three had shown me, much of which I knew was hard for him to hear. I could understand this, as there were parts that I knew he would have done anything in his power to keep from me, starting with witnessing first-hand how he had come to be the Vampire King he was today.
But with this being said, I also wanted to keep the conversation as light as it could be, as after what we had both been through, well, I think we needed this time between us. Obviously, we had checked hot make-up sex off the list, along with reunited lover’s dirty sex off that list too. Oh, and adding to it punishing oral sex which Lucius most definitely won at. But now, with me yawning every five minutes, Lucius was definitely getting the hint and despite me trying to hide it, he was soon lifting me from the water.
“I think I tired my girl out,” he said in an amused tone and I replied,
“What? I’m not ti…erred.” I said yawning halfway through that sentence, making him chuckle to himself as he placed me back on my feet. This was so he could wrap a lush robe around me. It was dark grey, thick, and like his bedsheets, unlike any other material I had ever felt before. But it was soft, big, and covered me up in warmth that felt comforting. Not as comforting as being in Lucius’ arms of course, speaking of which, that was precisely where he wanted me now. And well, I was so tired, I let him without a word of protest.
He carried me back up the staircase and by the time he was laying me down on the bed my eyes were finding it hard to stay open. I felt the whoosh of air from his wings as he folded them away after using them to get us into bed. I felt the covers being pulled from under me, before Lucius rid me of my robe and covered my now clean naked body with the sheets.
“And what do I do if I need the toilet in the middle of the night?” I asked referring to the cage of spikes that surrounded the bed, speaking now without opening my eyes. This was after I first felt him getting into bed beside me. He scoffed a laugh and said,
“Hold it.” It was my turn to scoff this time as I opened one eye a crack to find him on his side, with a hand to his face, propped up on an elbow looking down at me. Then he reached out and flicked the collar still around my neck, reminding me that it was still there.
“I think despite how fucking sexy I find seeing my collar around your neck is, I also think it’s safe to take this off now,” he said before coming over me and this time my eyes opened wide.
“Are you sure you don’t want me to keep it on…you could add a little bell to it and everything,” I teased making him smirk down at me whilst trailing his gaze from the top of my hairline down to my chin, which followed his fingertip.
“Mmm, that’s not a bad idea,” he mused making me add,
“Oh, who am I kidding, knowing you it would be a homing device you added, not a bell.” At this he grinned big and replied,
“Now that idea I like more.”
“I knew you would,” I whispered back after raising my face up and speaking over his lips before kissing him. He responded on a contented growl making me giggle whilst still on his mouth. He pulled back to raise a brow at me, silently asking me why I was laughing in his mouth. So, I walked my fingers up his own neck and said,
