us, the stars are bright in the sky, their arrangements recognizable shapes.

“The stars are the same here.”

“They are.”

“I like it here. It’s quiet, peaceful, and I love that the Fae share everything. How big is the island?”

“Possibly as big as Florida.”

“How is that possible? Don’t ships run into the island?”

“The winds force them around it.”

“Magic is amazing.”

“It is.”

A breeze lifts the sheer curtains into the air as the scent of saltwater fills my nostrils.

“Thank you for bringing me here, even though you terrified me with how you did it.”

“I’m sorry. I didn’t want to scare you, but you never would’ve believed me had I told you these things in New York.”

“You’re right, I wouldn’t have.”

“Can you forgive me for abducting you?”

“I can, but you’ll have to make it up to me.”

Turning toward him, I wink, and his smile widens, revealing his dimple. Strong hands gently turn me onto my back. Sliding between my legs, he opens them wide and gives me a wild grin before he leans down and presses his lips and tongue to my clit. Everything he does, he does with slow, purposeful motions. He sucks and licks as though he could do it forever, and I could lie here and let him.

“Griffin,” I whisper. “You make me feel incredible.”

Lowering his tongue, he dips into my folds, and tongue fucks me until my eyes water, and my body convulses with shocks of pleasure. This orgasm came even more aggressively than the last. I’m worried if my body can take the satisfaction of having sex with him.

Coming up from between my legs, he lies above me, pressing his hard erection against my soaking wet pussy.

“Do you still want me?”

“I do.”

“Then I’ll put on protection.”

Griffin reaches over for the tray, and I stop him.

“You don’t have to.”

His smile nearly reaches his ears. “Birth control?”

“Yes.”

“Without the condom, this will feel far better for both of us.”

“I want to feel you and your essence.”

“After tonight, you’ll never be able to forget how I feel.”

That’s what I’m afraid of.

The first kiss, the first thrust of him filling me, is already a moment I won’t forget. Griffin slides into me, filling me completely, the connection of us forcing satisfying energy into every nerve I have. The way he makes love is beautiful, patient, every motion sincere and rhythmic. He’s water enveloping the sand, rolling away, then coming back again. There are no thoughts to be had, only sensations and the desire to keep those sensations lasting as long as possible.

Each thrust draws a long, breathy moan, each kiss stealing a piece of my heart. As his ethereal essence swirls around us, enhancing the heat between us, the stars shift, and Griffin keeps his pace long into the night.

CHAPTER SIX

SELENE

Waking up in Griffin’s bed, a soreness between my legs, and the sun’s rays casting its glow across the sheets tells me this wasn’t a dream. I’m still in a Fae man’s house, on an island where I’m supposed to learn to use my magic. I’ve always longed for something more than reality offered, and it’s finally found me. I want to embrace it. I want to live it. I want more nights being made love to by Griffin.

As I lean over him to reach for the devotion fruit-lemonade, his sweaty, salty scent fills my nostrils. It’s crazy how good he smells after almost an entire night of sex. Thankfully, he doesn’t snore. He looks peaceful and beautiful, lying on his back with one arm over his head. With how long he lasted, I have a feeling it took a lot of magical energy. I loved every minute of it, and he’s right, I’ll never forget last night.

Setting the drink back down on the skinny table, I lift the comforter to go downstairs to shower. A massive swirl of silver-white forms about ten to fifteen feet away. Frightened, I climb back into bed and shake Griffin.

A moment later, the massive swirl opens, and a man enters through it. The silver-white swirl closes instantly as though it never existed. Shock fills my face as I stare at a tall man with milk chocolate hair longer on the top than the sides. He’s handsome with high cheekbones, a perfect nose, and scruff outlining his jaw. In front of his hazel eyes are black eyeglasses. He’s wearing a button-down, dark green shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and over the shirt is a gray vest. Below that, on long, slender legs are a pair of jeans with a brown leather belt. He has the look of a hot, stylish professor.

Cyrus!

Seeing me holding the comforter to my chest, he quickly turns his back to me.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t expect you to be in here.”

I shake Griffin again, and he wraps an arm around me, trying to tuck me into bed with him.

“Griffin.”

“What’s wrong, love?”

Griffin’s eyes snap open, looking in the same direction, and his hold on me relaxes.

“Morning, Cyrus.”

“Morning,” Cyrus grumbles.

“I’ll meet you downstairs.”

Cyrus gives a wave of his hand behind him, then leaves out the rooftop bedroom door.

“His portal scared me.”

“Are you okay now?” Griffin pulls me to his chest and kisses me.

“Yeah, I’m going to take a shower, then find something for breakfast.”

“I’ll have breakfast ready for you.”

“I could get used to this.” Pulling away from him is difficult.

“Good.” Griffin snags me back, pulls me into bed, and covers me with his sexy body. “I want you with me as much as possible.”

“This is crazy how I’m feeling. I barely know you.”

“I want to change that. I want you to know me.”

“I want you to know me, too. Hell, I want to know me.”

“You will. We’ll practice drawing out your magic today, so you can learn to control it.”

I put my forehead to his, and he strokes my hair and neck as he gives a sweet peck to the tip of my nose.

“I’m beginning to care for you… a lot. Last night was beyond amazing.”

“It was for me, too. I want you
