Chapter 35: Daring

    After the knock, Nyla announced Phoebe and the others would be there within the hour. Finn parted from me with a swift kiss on my forehead before sitting beside me. Grabbing onto his cloak, he leaned into my ear.


    “Can I have this now?” he asked, tugging it slightly.


    If he pulled it off, he’d see me bare. However, it wouldn’t be anything new to him.


    “Are you going to see your generals?” I mumbled, feeling envious.


    Finn gazed towards the window, nodding.


    “Levaira and Astrid should be back soon.” He informed.


    Of course… it must be those two out of the five.


    “You’ve slept with them, right?” I grumbled.


    It made him shift his blue orbs back onto me. He was surprised by the tone of my voice.


    Did it have hostility in it? Crap…


    “I’ve had sex with many people. Some who I devoured right after.” He confessed.


    Again, he hid nothing from me.


    Yet… you won’t do it with me? Always running from me… why?


    “I guess humans are easy prey for your pretty face.” I sighed, feeling dejected.


    I wasn’t pretty like Lillia or any other girl in his life. No, I was skinny and barely had any meat on me, which meant my chest was flat compared to other females. It even lacked the curves, thanks to my malnutrition, before I got to this place.


    Thanks to Gael, I had been gaining some weight, but it wasn’t enough.


    “Well, it helped when I didn’t have anyone to rely on.” He shrugged.


    Before the incubus, he had to feed himself, much like me. I shouldn’t have been comparing our different lifetimes. After all, he had lived more than a few hundred years. Yet my nerves were getting the best of me.


    What if I can’t match all the girls in your life?


    Silently, I gazed down at the bed. My hand refused even to make a fist. He grabbed me by my chin and tugged me to meet with his blue orbs.


    “Does it bother you I have a high body count?” he asked.


    His eyes had gone cold, and his azure aura from before was gone, too.


    Ah… Are you worried like me?


    Shaking my head, I grabbed onto his hand. “No, but it makes me wonder if there’s something wrong with me. Every time, you always pull away.”


    Cupping my cheeks in his palms, I saw those deep blue eyes of his widen in shock.


    “What?! No, love. You don’t know how much I want to ravish you. Fuck! Every instinct tells me to rip this cloak and make you mine. Unlike all the women before you, I want to cherish you.” He bit his lip, pressing his forehead against mine.


    I was a moth caught by a bright light. This man always said all the right things. However, before I could speak, he continued.


    “I want us to be more than a simple fuck. It’s all I’ve ever had, but I don’t even know if it’s possible.” He sighed, tugging away from me.


    Before he could speak, I grabbed his shirt, pulling him into a sweet kiss. It was a short brush.The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.


    “I wish to be more, too!” I declared, holding onto him.


    Leaning into me, he locked his lips with me again, allowing his tongue to caress mine. Tugging away from me, he shook his head.


    “I don’t want to let you go to Phoebe.” He breathed, struggling with his morals.


    His pupils again were narrow, with a faint blue aura coming from his core.


    “Finn… does your cloak smell like me?” I asked, snuggling myself into it again.


    He gazed away from me.


    “Hm? It does. It smells like I was in bed with you all night.” He hummed with rosy cheeks.


    If that was the case, then…


    “Take it and make sure those two get a good whiff of it.” I pouted, allowing it to fall from my shoulders.


    It exposed my chest when he wasn’t gazing towards me.


    “Oh, love, they know I’m yours.” He chuckled, glancing back at me.


    The moment his gaze rested on me, his cheeks turned bright red, and his eyes shimmered, appearing hungry.


    “Didn’t sound like it last time,” I mumbled, feeling my face burn.


    I wasn’t backing down, though.


    “I’ll take it and wear it, but how about you add something else?” he suddenly suggested, voice shaking a bit.


    I tilted my head. “Hm?”


    “Mark me.” He announced.


    “W-what?” I stumbled out.


    It almost felt like my brain fried.


    “Give me kiss marks, sweets.” Finn smiled playfully, undoing the buttons on his shirt.


    My eyes followed his moments, unable to pry them off.


    Who knew I was so thirsty for this demon? Get a grip!


    “Won’t it heal?” I asked, feeling my heart pop out of my chest, especially when he removed his shirt.


    I gawked at his features before he clasped onto my hand, guiding it to his chest. The feeling of his skin on my palm left me tingly, and I felt him shiver under it. Gazing up his face, I saw an expression I hadn’t seen before.


    He wanted me to touch him more, and it made my heart throb like never before. At that moment, he was mine, and I wanted to dominate him.


    “It won’t if I don’t want to.” He let out a small sigh when I trailed my hand down his chest.


    Unlike him, I wouldn’t run away.


    Skin this fair will be easily marked.


    “Won’t it be embarrassing?” I asked, leaning into him.


    “Not when it comes from you.” His voice squeaked when he felt me press my lips against his pec.


    I didn’t know what I was doing, but it wasn’t hard to make a hickey. Sucking his skin in my mouth, I left a light mark with a simple pop of my lips. Grabbing me by the back of my head, he let out a small groan when I continued to leave light marks on his fair skin, trailing my way up his chest.


    Unable to hold it, I pushed Finn, wanting him to go down onto the bed. Allowing me to take the lead, he let himself fall on me, allowing me to straddle him, dragging the cloak with me quickly. It hooked to my hips, covering my lady bits from him.


    However, something poked me from below when I pressed my lips on his neck. Licking it, I smirked, knowing a tent was in his pants.


    If I leave a mark here, everyone will see it.


    Instead of pulling away from me, he stayed where he was. One of his hands was on my hips while his tail coiled around one of my legs. The arm that lagged rested on his chest as I used the other to hold myself up.


    Leaning into him more, my chest brushed against him, driving him shivering again. Peeking at him, I noticed him gazing away from me, cheeks flushed. He bit into his other hand, trying to hold himself in place.


    Oi! Oi! Oi! I feel like a vixen now! Can this demon be any cuter?! How dare that ugly woman call you a bore?! You… are adorable! Ah… her loss is my gain! Yes… my fucking gain!


    “Don’t hold back,” I whispered near his ear.


    Again, he shivered, tugging his hand away from his mouth.


    “If I don’t, I’ll… Fuck!” he cursed, feeling me lick his neck again.


    The tone in his voice pitched, making me want to bully him more. Tightening his hand on my hip, I sucked his skin in my mouth, leaving a mark behind. Tugging away from it, I relished the sight of everything I did.


    Underneath me was a Finn who was close to losing his sanity. His eyes glowed so brightly when he followed me. It wasn’t the first time anyone had looked at me with that desire, yet he was different. He wouldn’t hurt me even when he wanted to have me.


    Cherish me. At the same time, I’ll make you lose your senses to me.


    Leaning onto my chest, he licked the side of my left breast before leaving a light mark on it, too. It burned hotter than my lips did with every kiss he left on my skin. A soft sigh left him before burying his face in my bosom.


    “You should get dressed before I make you not show up.” He warned, causing me to frown.


    I twirled his hair on my fingertips, wishing for more than this demon was willing to give.


    “Hm… you’re all talk and no bite.” I shrugged.


    His blue aura was erupting from him, and it was getting thicker.


    “Only to you, Sparky. Well, to a point.” He breathed, gazing at me with eyes I thought I would never see.


    There was some life in them. It was still far from how he was, but this was a start. A soft smile rose on my lips.


    If it were up to me, he wouldn’t leave. But…


    “I’ll let you escape for now, little king,” I simpered.


    A nervous chuckle left his lips. “You’re really one of a fucking kind.”


    Kissing me one last time, he vanished a second later, leaving me alone in the bed. His cloak was missing, too. However, Solas''s tail wagged when I gazed towards him. I had completely forgotten he was around.


    Shaking my head, I asked him to help me dress as my right arm refused to listen. Struggling to dress, it wasn’t long before Nyla had to come to help me. Phoebe and everyone else were already waiting downstairs.
