Chapter 8 : In The Darkness

As I suspected, Orion was gone when I woke up.

For a split second, I wondered if he had tricked me again. Fooled me through my dreams again…but then I smelled him.

The scent of his cologne on my sheets. I had forgotten how good it smelled. How badly I wanted to bottle it up for myself. Musky and masculine. As sinful as he tasted. My mouth watered thinking about last night. His kiss. The way he fed from me. The sensation of his hand around my throat.

We didn’t have sex. He wouldn’t even let me finish him off. I hummed in disappointment, getting lost in the fantasy of sinking to my knees in front of him. Watching the confusion wrinkle his forehead.

For once it wouldn’t be about my pleasure…it would be about his. I don’t know if he ever indulged in sex for the simple primal enjoyment of it. I wanted him to want me, not for the necessity of feeding his hunger but for his own desire.
