Chapter 24

GRACE

We got there just as the sun was beginning to peek over the horizon. The vampires were always the first ones in, keen to avoid the harsh daylight.

The receptionist gave us a curt nod as we walked in. She wasn’t thrilled about me being so close to her boss, but I was his soulmate. I had every right to be there, and I’d never felt more sure of myself.

We stepped into the elevator, and I tugged on Haven’s tie, pulling him into a kiss. He wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close, and kissed me back. His hands were firm and possessive on my waist. He finally pulled away from my lips, leaning in to whisper in my ear, clearly pleased with our kiss.

“Do you like the tie, Grace?” he asked, his voice low and husky.

“Yes,” I breathed out.

He hummed in response, and I felt his hand slide under my skirt, touching me where my legs met. I gasped at the cool touch of his fingers, but I spread my legs to give him better access, earning a chuckle from him.

“You’re already wet for me, love. You can’t wait for master to pound into you, huh?”

“Yes.” I sighed as I felt his fingers push my thong aside.

The elevator doors slid open before he could do anything else, and in walked someone I knew well: Ashton. I spun around so fast, hoping he hadn’t seen what we were up to.

Haven’s eyes narrowed, clearly not happy about the interruption, but I wasn’t about to continue in front of Ashton.

“Hey there, Grace.” Ashton greeted me with a wide smile.

“Hey, Ashton,” I replied, trying to steady my racing heart.

“Wanna grab lunch together again?” he asked.

I felt Haven’s hand slide down my backside to reach my front. Surely he wouldn’t dare do it in front of Ashton. I felt his finger stroke my clit, and it took all my willpower not to moan and rock my hips to increase the pressure.

“Sure,” I managed to say as Haven’s finger was now circling my entrance.

The doors opened again, and Ashton stepped out with a ‘see you later.’ As soon as he was gone, I moaned because Haven pushed his finger inside of me as he pulled me into his chest with his arm under my breasts.

“You’re canceling your lunch with the human,” he growled. “You’re eating takeout.”

“Are we having a meeting?” I asked as I leaned into his chest, the pressure building in my stomach.

“No. I just want to eat with my lady.”

He pushed another finger in, but the doors opened again. We were on our floor. He withdrew his hand and quickly led me into our office. He locked the door behind us, and he took off his tie.

“Wrists,” he commanded.

I offered him my wrists, and he tied them just tight enough so I couldn’t move but loose enough so it wouldn’t hurt. He laid a small kiss above the tie, and he lifted me into his arms to carry me to the couch.

He sat down, and I heard him unbuckle his pants. He lifted my skirt and lowered my panties before pulling me closer until his legs were between mine.

“Show me your ass, love,” he said.

I bent over until my ass was at his level on the couch. I felt his tongue in my slit, making me moan loudly.

“Lower your voice, Grace. Many vampires can hear you here, and I don’t want them to be tempted. You’re mine,” he growled.

I bit my lower lip to stifle any sound as he resumed licking my slit. His tongue was relentless as it played in my folds, exploring, lapping at my clit lazily like a cat with milk.

My whole body was shaking, the pressure in my stomach building. He pushed his tongue inside, and I feared that my legs wouldn’t hold me up much longer. Damn, he was good.

“Haven,” I whispered-moaned.

His tongue shifted to my clit, and he pushed a finger inside of me. I tried to resist the urge to cry out, but my walls were clenching tight around his finger, begging for release.

His other hand went up my blouse and freed me from my bra. He started playing with my nipple as soon as my breasts spilled out.

“Please…,” I begged.

“Beg me some more, Grace,” he said. “You wanted to have lunch with another man when we just sealed our lives together? I don’t think so. You belong to me. You shouldn’t want to be with another man.”

“Please, Master. I only want you. You’re the only one. I...I need you,” I cried.

“Cum for me, love.”

He flicked his tongue over my clit, and I came hard. I bit my lip until I could taste blood in my mouth to stifle any loud moans, and he kept working me until I came down from my high.

He made me turn around and licked my lip to clean it from the blood. His eyes were a bright ruby red, clearly indicating that he wasn’t finished with me.

“You taste so good, my Grace,” he said huskily.

He lowered me face down on the couch and slapped my butt hard. I moaned as softly as I could, and he entered me with one push. His hands covered mine, and his body covered mine as he pounded hard into me.

“Keep your ass up, sweetheart,” he growled.

I tried, but my whole body was shaking from need and pleasure. He was piercing through me so fast in this position. His hard abs were pressed against my butt as he slammed his body mercilessly into mine.

His hands were holding me firmly in place, and his cock was rubbing through my walls until it reached my end. I felt the heat build again under his fast pace.

“Please, Master,” I moaned softly.

“Not yet,” he growled.

He thrust harder inside of me, but I was so tight around him that it was getting difficult to resist. I could feel him brush that spot again and again until I felt him slap my butt again. I moaned, arching my back under him, and he grunted.

“Damn, Grace, you’re incredible. This heat, this tightness, your wet, pulsing pussy—it’s all mine. The way you climax, the way you love—it’s all for me. Your body craves me. Do you want me to give you what you need? Do you want me to make you cum hard?”

“Yes! Please, yes! I’m all yours—always.”

He hit that sweet spot, and I exploded, screaming. I couldn’t hold back any longer. My body convulsed as I moved my hips, trying to prolong the sensation. He kept thrusting, so intensely that I felt him twitch inside me.

“Damn, your pussy is pulsing so hard, love. Do you want to get pregnant that badly? Do you want your master’s seed?” he grunted.

“Yes. Give it to me, Master,” I whimpered.

He thrust harder, grinding his hips against mine. My pussy was pulsing so intensely that I was amazed he could keep going. His cock drove into me, hitting my deepest spot until he couldn’t hold back any longer.

He released himself deep inside me, grunting my name. I moaned and shivered beneath him. It felt incredible. He shot a heavy load, and I could feel it seeping out of me as he pulled out.

“Don’t move,” he said, a hint of amusement in his voice. “I’m going to clean you up.”

He went to his desk to grab the wipes, and I found myself thinking about his earlier words. Did I want to have children with him? Yes, I would love to bear his children. But was I ready now? We’d always been doing it without protection, but I was tracking my cycle on my phone, and so far, we hadn’t been risky. The question lingered, and maybe it was time to address it.

“What’s got you so serious?” he asked as he cleaned me up.

“Kids,” I replied.

He tensed and stopped what he was doing to look at me. He was trying to figure out what I was about to say, but I wasn’t even sure how to broach the subject.

“Are you... I mean, we’ve been... But I can usually tell because your blood...changes when it’s time to...”

“I’m not pregnant,” I laughed. “I’m tracking everything on my phone, so relax. But...since we’re on the subject... I just wanted to talk about it. I want to know if you’re expecting to have any soon because...I’m not. I want to take my time.”

He gave me a serious look, considering my words. There were so many things I wanted to do before becoming a mother. In my opinion, that could wait. After all, we had eternity ahead of us.
