“Leviaethan!”
Warmth spurted inside her as his release found him, and Camilla plummeted over the edge again, riding the last waves of pleasure until she turned boneless and fell back against Envy’s chest, breath heaving.
His arms circled her, drawing little shapes along her stomach, under her ribs, along the curve of her breasts with his own quivering muscles.
“Fucking hell.” His breath was warm on her neck, her skin pebbling pleasantly. He’d softened a little but remained inside her. “You kiss like a saint but fuck like a deviant.”
“I wanted our one night to count.”
“Fucking hell,” he said again, quieter this time.
Perhaps she had ruined him.
Her lips twitched upward before the smile faded.
Dawn wasn’t far off, and they needed to get the next clue. Their time was over.
The moment she stood, she knew she’d be leaving this fantasy behind.
To his credit, Envy didn’t seem to be in a rush to leave their little bubble behind either. She knew he must be thinking of the game again too. Of what it meant to his court.
Yet he stayed right there. With her. Like he didn’t wish to be anywhere else.
His hands moved to her arms, lightly tracing them.
Their breathing had long since evened out, and the silence hung heavy between them.
The slow, light touches moved along her silhouette, her waist, the curve of her hip, then meandered below her navel, sliding closer to where their bodies were still joined.
Her breath hitched as his hand dipped lower. He was hard again.
“What about the game?” she asked, hating that she had.
“Do you want me to stop?”
She shook her head. “Not at all.”
“Thank fuck.”
He shifted so that Camilla was fully seated on him but he was in a more commanding position. While she was still facing away, her back to his chest, he was the one in control, lifting her up along his shaft, teasing her with the ridge as he slowly pumped in and out, making love to her like he’d never let go. There wasn’t anything hard and fast about his movements.
Now that he was back in control, he focused solely on wringing as much pleasure from her body as he could. The ridge of him hit a spot inside her that stole her thoughts.
He pulled out, then thrust in again, hitting that same glorious place.
She leaned against him, hands curled back around his neck, playing with his hair. He reached around, cupping her breasts as he moved, allowing himself room to thrust.
“See that mirror over there?” he asked, pointing to a gilded mirror she hadn’t noticed across the room.
“Yes.”
“Watch.” He widened his legs, forcing hers to follow his lead, exposing her glistening sex. If his court had been here, they would have had quite the show. She had quite the show.
Envy’s fingers swirled over her clit, pressing against it while he slowly thrust up.
Camilla practically panted from the sight.
“Watch how hard I make you come.”
Camilla bit her lip, already feeling her body’s response to his wicked demand.
His gaze remained locked on where their bodies were joined, drinking in the sight like a starving man who’d come upon a feast. He drew his fingers to his mouth, attention locked on hers in the mirror as he licked her arousal off.
“So fucking sweet.”
When he touched her again, with his erection nestled deep inside, it was almost too much.
He pressed tender kisses to her neck, his fingers continuing to slowly torture her. He thrust once in a while, just to add to the overwhelming sensations vying for her attention.
His legs widened farther, baring her more. Soon, much too soon, her breath turned uneven. Her climax was close.
Her eyes drifted shut.
Envy slapped her clit, sending a wave of sensation through her. “Eyes open.”
“Beast.”
“You fucking adore it.”
That she did.
Camilla kept her attention fixed on their show, feeling and watching his skill as a lover; he was drawing pleasure the same way she could draw realms. And he was every bit as talented.
“Come for me, love.”
His teeth were on her neck, his thrusts coming faster now. Still slow, still punishingly wonderful. But he was close again too, waiting to join her the moment she tumbled over the edge. Camilla tried to hold off, tried to prolong this moment. But her body responded to his quiet demands, finally giving in to the overwhelming pleasure.
“Leviaethan!” She came with his name on her lips again.
This time, when he shouted her name, then held her in his arms, she felt like he was already long gone. Like a star shooting across the night sky, there was nothing left but the memory of how beautifully bright it had once shined.
FIFTY-FOUR
SURPRISINGLY, ENVY WASN’T the one who ended their night.
Camilla rode him two more times on his throne, calling his true name every time she came. Backward and forward, her appetite insatiable.
Each time she said his true name, something inside him wound tighter. He should have felt the tension easing after the first time they made love. It didn’t abate as he imagined it would.
He’d bent her over the damn throne, stroking and teasing and worshipping every inch of her body until she snapped at him to fuck her again.
Still… the want, the need, persisted.
They’d gone to his bedroom suite—so he could monitor what she saw in his House while his court was unpredictable, and so he could devour her on his mattress one more time.
One more time led to three more times. Her coming on his tongue, him on hers.
They were currently sprawled on top of his sheets, her legs tangled up with his, his fingers stroking the length of her arms, as he considered what had gone wrong.
Late-morning sunlight slanted into the room, signaling that their night had been over hours before. It was well past the time he’d normally feel sated.
Camilla pressed a kiss to his palm, then rolled to face him.
“It’s morning.”
His attention flicked to hers, amusement lacing his tone. “I do comprehend what the sun indicates, pet.”
Her gaze narrowed. “We need to get out of bed.”
He pulled her on top of him, nuzzling her neck.
“Soon.”
Camilla kissed him, softly at first, then succumbed to the gentle tease of his tongue against the seam of her lips. He was hard again, ready. They could definitely spare another hour before they left. He’d clearly deprived himself of carnal pleasures for too long. It was the most reasonable explanation for his thirst for her.
She pushed herself up, bracing against his torso.
“It’s time to get up, Envy. We need to go to the Twin Pillars.”
He gave her an annoyed look. “It’s Envy again, is it?”
“Why wouldn’t it be?” she challenged. “Did you expect something else?”
He raked a hand over his face. “No.”
“Lie.”
He looked her over. “Fae cannot sense lies like demons can.”
“Perhaps not, but I can read your face well enough by now.” She scrutinized him much too closely. “You’re not satisfied.”
“Incorrect. I am much too satisfied. Hence the issue.”
Camilla didn’t speak for a long moment, the tension growing uncomfortably thick as she stared down at him. It would have been less irksome if his cock hadn’t been twitching against her body every time her gaze flicked over him.
