what he meant. He was acting like happy Gritt again. Like the Gritt I’d woken up beside.
“You don’t want this,” I reminded him.
“Maybe I do.”
I sighed angrily at him. “Well, maybe I don’t,” I snapped. “Maybe I want to give you emotional whiplash.”
He wasn’t deterred. “You mean, you don’t want me to do this?” Gritt challenged in a low, husky voice as he took another step forward and placed his hot hand around my neck.
Yes. “Definitely not,” I sputtered, backing away again, only to be blocked by the desk behind me.
“And you don’t want me to do this either?” He took the necklace in his hand and slowly started to unclasp it.
My Void knocked against my skin, begging to be let out. Yes, Yes, Yes. “Nope.”
His smirk widened, like he could hear the truth beneath the lie, but after he had the clasp undone, he kept the amulet pressed against my chest. He leaned in, and I was sure he must be able to hear how fast my heart was racing. “Admit that you want to feed from me.”
“No,” I said on a breathy sigh, my eyes fluttering closed.
His other arm wrapped around my middle, letting his large hand press against the small of my back. I automatically arched into him. His scruffy beard scraped against my skin as he ran his cheek against mine. “Liar.”
I couldn’t resist him for a single second longer. I didn’t want to. My new mantra was to take what I wanted, and I was starving for him. My lips crashed to his, so fast and aggressive that it caught him off guard. But he only paused for a second before he met me—lips to lips, tongue to tongue, teeth to teeth.
“Say it,” he growled against my mouth.
“You first.”
He trailed the amulet down my skin, until it was pressing between my breasts. At the same time, he moved his mouth down my neck, making chills erupt from the sensitive spots that he started to lick and nibble. The amulet was almost vibrating now, which only made my body even more aware of all the sensations that Gritt was wrenching from me.
He was right. I wanted him. I wanted this.
I reached down between us and let my hand rub against his hardness. He groaned and bit into my skin.
“I want to fuck you,” he admitted. “I want you to feed from me. I need both of those things like I need to fucking breathe. I can’t lie anymore. I can’t fucking hold back.”
Hearing him say it out loud made my need for him soar even higher.
“Then do it,” I told him, my eyes finding his.
His throat bobbed, the muscle in his jaws clenching. “You want me to fuck you, Void? Right here in the classroom?”
I whimpered in response and started stroking him more, but the hand at my back moved around so that he could grip my wrist, stopping me. “Then say it.”
I looked up at him. “I want you.”
“What do you want?” he pressed. I clenched my teeth. The asshole wanted me to say everything.
“I want to feed from you...and I want you to fuck me, right here in the classroom.”
He hummed in approval. “That’s right. And that’s what I fucking want too. Because you’re my godsdamned mate.”
His hand over the amulet released, and my Void shot out of my skin, coalescing from my pores. The smoke wrapped around us until all I could see was my body pressed against Gritt’s. He deftly lifted me up until I was sitting on the teacher’s desk, and he shoved my legs open to step between them.
My Void wrapped around his limbs in thin wisps, feeding gently. His eyes rolled to the back of his head as he moaned. “Fuck.”
I would have mirrored his response, but I was too high off the mixture of feeding while being completely lost to lust.
“This damn schoolgirl skirt fucking kills me every day,” he said, looking down at where the fabric was hiked up against my thigh. “I swear, it’s shorter today.”
“I’m pretty sure the necro made some mice hem it four inches shorter,” I breathed, reaching down to unclasp his pants. I popped them open and shoved them down hurriedly, earning a smirk from Gritt.
“In a hurry?” he teased.
“Yes! Just get inside me.”
His eyes flashed, and I swear, I was suddenly looking back at an animal in his place. “Fucking gladly.”
He pushed down his boxers, revealing his large, hard erection. I stared down at it in equal parts excitement and lust.
