Free The Coming Storm by Flynn Eire Page B

Daniel, I do believe you’re flirting with me,” I giggled as I batted my eyelashes at him, laying it on thick.
    “That depends if you would consider visiting again? If I thought it not only best for my coven that Aurelo travel with you but would be an additional way to keep you safe might that make you want to spend some time here?”
    “I wouldn’t come alone…” I hedged, letting him fill in the rest.
    “Your brothers are always welcome as well.”
    “They do have a friend here.” I smiled. “I won’t come without them, Daniel. We’ve lost too much already, but yeah, we can’t go back home. I don’t know what the future holds, but let me assure you if I could, I’d stay another night. Would that be a soon enough visit? Does that ease your mind about how I feel?”
    “Yes, dear Chicago,” he chuckled. I rolled my eyes as he kissed the tip of my nose before handing me over to Aurelo. “Pack what you need and accompany them. Do what you must to protect their mission and keep Chicago safe. A very wise suggestion, Aurelo. I knew you were the right choice.”
    “Thank you, Director.” He gave a slight bow with me in his arms. Daniel acknowledged the gesture before focusing on me.
    “Sleep well and I will see you before you depart.”
    “Sounds good.” Once we were in the hall, I tapped the massive chest I was snuggled against. “I can walk. I’m okay. I was just wobbly before.”
    “He said to keep you safe. You are safest right here,” he said in a strange voice. Odd but I was too tired to try and play guessing games as to what was up with anyone right then.
    It was well after five in the morning as Aurelo carried me towards the room I’d been given. I couldn’t remember what time we’d gotten to the coven but that we’d gone in the Federal building at like seven at night, thinking it was late enough where there wouldn’t be too many suspicious eyes, but not so late at night that it would send up red flags.
    If I had to guess, I’d say eight-ish, which meant I’d been having sex for over eight and a half hours. Go me! It was definitely a night I would never forget and thoroughly enjoyed.
    I was just starting to doze against him when he turned a corner off the main hallway and flipped me out of his arms. I gave a soft gasp and found myself pressed against the wall, my heart catching in my throat as I instinctively threw out my hands to push him away. Was Aurelo really the enemy? Could he be working with the humans?
    “Please, Chicago, I must have you. I know you are exhausted and spent, but I am so full of need for you I might shatter if I don’t feel you again.” His hands moved under the robe and found my ass, whimpering when he found my hole slicked up. “Why are you slicked up?”
    “Daniel said it was some type of tightening cream. He was sure shifters went back to normal but he said I was too precious to risk,” I whispered, still thrown by the turn of events.
    “He’s right. You are too precious to risk in any way,” Aurelo breathed against my lips. “I lied earlier, Chicago.”
    I swallowed loudly and met his gaze. “About what?”
    “About why I want to go with to deliver the files to the PP. Yes, I want to keep the coven in the loop and I care what happens to us all. But that was not the main reason.”
    I moaned as he started kissing along my jaw and tilted my neck to give him room. Aurelo undid the belt of my robe and wrapped my legs around his hips. As his fingers teased my hole, I momentarily forgot what we were talking about.
    “Wh-what is the reason?”
    “You. You are the reason. To spend more time with you, Chicago. To have a chance to be with you, to please you. To be alone with you so you might allow me to spoil you so that you might want me as much as I want you.”
    “You’d risk your life on a dangerous, probably suicidal mission just to fuck me some more?” I asked, disbelief in my tone. What the hell was wrong with this guy?
    “I did not say just to
