Free Blood and Reign (Cassandra Myles Witch Series) by Electa Graham

I swallowed hard as I looked at my handy work. Every touch made me want to touch him more. My body was on fire. I licked my lips, wanting to place them on his neck, his chest…lower. Images of us in bed together kept flashing in my mind. My body wasn’t under my control. I knew I needed to walk away, but I couldn’t.
    My hand s glided over his strong shoulders. He shuddered under my touch. He wanted me too. As my fingertips trailed down his arms, they sent sparks of electricity through my body. I was wet and my breath was coming faster and faster.
    “Cass .” His voice was little more than a puff of air.
    “Dominick, I want you. Oh God , I need you inside me.” It was painful not to have him.
    He flipped me onto his lap. I wrapped my legs around his waist, feeling his hardness pushing into my core. I rolled my hips, pressing myself against his hard cock. His smell of earth and musk filled me, intoxicated me. We kissed and our mouths were starving for each other. Nibbling and sucking. I couldn’t get enough of him. Each caress, each kiss only made my need stronger.
    Firm lips moved down my neck and his tongue darted out, lapping at the hollow of my collarbone.
    “You’ re so beautiful, Cass.”
    Slowly , I let the robe fall, taking the tatters of my dress with it. I felt free and sexy. This was right. This was what had to happen. I cupped my breasts, offering them to him. He took one rosy nub into his mouth and nibbled lightly. A low moan escaped my lips.
    Running my fingers through my hair and arching my back, I was about to cum without him ever even entering my body. Lost in that moment I started to scream, when something made a loud clunk on the floor. It felt like a cold bucket of water splashed over me. Quickly scrambling from his lap, I lunged for my robe and threw it around me. What had I done?
    “I’ m sorry, Dominick. So sorry. I don’t know what happened.” My cheeks were burning. I had behaved like some wanton slut. I had been out of control.
    He just stared at me like I had lost my mind and I think I had. “What the hell , Cass?” He was confused and angry. I didn’t blame him; so was I.
    “I don’t know. I was so out of control and then it was like someone shook me out of a trance.”
    He picked up a small brooch from the floor. It held a blood-red stone shaped like a heart and he dropped it immediately. “It was this. I touched it for a second and I’ve … ummm … never been so hard.”
    “How did I not sense it or feel it in my hair?”
    “It must be fae magic. I’m sorry, Cass. I thought you really wanted me. You know I’d never force you.”
    “Dominick , don’t. I should be apologizing to you. I’m the one who came on to you. It was like I couldn’t help myself. I mean, I’m attracted to you, really attracted to you, but this was different. This was like I had no control, just need.”
    “I get it , Cass.” He looked like he was in pain. Oh yeah, oops.
    “Sorry.” I was blushing from head to toe.
    A knock at the door sent me two feet into the air. We looked at each other, feeling silly. At least it broke the tension. Madly dashing around so we looked a little less mid coitus, I dashed for the door.
    “Good day, Your Majesty. I’m the royal healer. My name is Eli. I’ve come to see if I can be of any help to your friend.” Twinkling black eyes looked down at me from a thin face framed by silver and black hair. He carried a large, leather onyx bag that tinkled as he walked. Some fae like Na’min gave off an electric current. Some gave off nothing that I could detect. The healer gave off a calming effect.
    “Of course ; please come in. I was just about to go see him myself, Eli.” I didn’t add, but I got distracted by attacking the sexy werewolf to my right.
    “Your Majesty, it is my job as royal healer to do my best for you, but I must be honest, I’ve never tried to help a vampire. I don’t know how much I can do.”
    “I understand. Just the fact you are trying
