May I?

NALEDI’S POV

I wanted his mark.

Scratch that. I needed him to mark me.

Today was the second day and Caellum had not left my side. Having him around lulled the pain I felt but did nothing to the desire to bear his mark.

All through the night, we fucked. One way or the other, he was inside me, around me, cuddling and doing everything he could to distract me from the pain.

I was grateful for his efforts. Grateful that he was able to respect my wishes and control himself despite not wanting to overstep his boundaries.

Caellum wanted to mark me. I could sense it. Whenever he kissed my neck, he nibbled on the spot where the mark was supposed to be. Leaving a faint mark before begrudgingly moving to other areas that needed his attention.

His little antics didn’t go unnoticed by me. In fact, somehow, that managed to be all I wanted from him. Every time he hovered around my neck, I found myself leaning in, wanting him to take the fall, and sink his fangs in my neck.
