“Pull the car over, Jordan, Marley’s going to be sick,” Zachary said.
Zachary couldn’t have been more right. Marley did get sick, horribly, gut wrenchingly sick. All she wanted to do was pass out right there in the grass next to the highway and sleep forever. But that didn’t happen. Zachary picked her up gently, laying her in the third row. Sleep found her before Jordan started driving again.

Guilt tore at Zachary’s stomach. What had he done? Marley hated him. He had to make things right. Why hadn’t he thought she would react this way? How could he make things better when she didn’t even want him around her?
“Cole, what do I do?” Zachary pleaded to his best friend.
Normally, he would never ask anyone’s advice, but he trusted Cole.
Plus, this concerned Marley. This wasn’t about him anymore. They were going to have a child together. He loved her. Never had Zachary been so lost.
“Go to her somewhere where she’s comfortable.” Cole nodded to the third row where Marley lay sleeping.
Zachary smiled and nodded. “You’re right, thanks. I knew I could count on you.”
It took some maneuvering for Zachary to finally get comfortable in the small seat, but he managed after folding his legs at odd angles.
Pushing everything from his mind, he began to focus on their connection. Around the edges of the blackness he felt the pull on his insides that would allow him to leave his body. A vision of Marley’s face flashed before him and he knew he had it. Now it was up to him to make things right.

Marley had no idea where she was. It almost felt like her old room. The darkness surrounded her and yet she could see the softest glow. That’s when she felt the presence, Zachary’s presence.

Is this the place where they always met? It felt like the same location, her bed.
Slowly, Marley looked up into his shadowed face, not seeing anything clearly. But she could imagine it perfectly. His lips, his perfect nose, she knew where every feature existed and exactly what it looked like.
Feeling as if it fought against water, she lifted her hand to Zachary’s face. No anger resided here, no pain or confusion. Just Zachary and her and their need for one another existed.
Heat radiated from his body, which seemed strange to her. This was supposed to be a projection. The Internet said projections weren’t thought to have smells, tastes, touch, or weren’t expected to be solid.
He should have been, well, invisible, so to speak. Of course, the researchers didn’t do their tests on werewolves.
Zachary came to Marley. His arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her against his body. Without hesitation, she wrapped her legs around him, noticing the dim glow becoming brighter, showing he sported the exact same clothing he wore in the car.
Marley pushed all thoughts away as they started to pop into her head. The outside world held so many problems, but this she could enjoy. This is the Zachary she had grown accustomed to. The one she loved from the first moment he touched her body.
With gentleness, she could feel her shirt being pulled off, slowly, brushing against every pore on her body. Electric jolts pulsed through her nipples while the fabric ran against them. This was the way Zachary and she were meant to feel. Not danger or miscommunications, just passion and pleasure, the untainted, savage feeling of raw lust in its purest form.
“Marley…” Zachary whispered against her lips.
She quickly put her finger to his mouth. Words would only stop this magical experience from happening.

They removed each other’s clothing leisurely, taking their time to feel one another’s body. Marley’s fingertips traced along the defined planes of his stomach, feeling the hardness tighten under her touch.
He looked so powerful, like a Greek god himself. Maybe he was.
It wouldn’t have surprised her one bit. It seemed nothing could surprise her anymore.
Running the tip of her tongue over his nipple, she worked her way down. Zachary moaned beneath her. Every sound, from his moaning to her ragged breathing, echoed through the vast emptiness.
Zachary’s thick cock rested between Marley’s breasts while she took nibbling bites along his lower stomach. She slowly worked her way down until she hit the dark patch of hair surrounding his cock.
The moment Marley’s fingers circled around him, he swayed forward.
In a circular motion, she ran her tongue around his tip, tasting the mixture of the unfamiliar flavors. The need for more drove her to experiment.
Applying more pressure to her lips, she squeezed his width trying to sample more of him. He intoxicated her, hypnotized her, with his distinct taste. Precum seeped onto her tongue. It was sweet, yet definitely male. She had to have more.
Some part of her wanted to have him inside of her. Like he had ingested her blood, she also wanted to ingest some part of him. His cum would be the perfect solution.
* * * *
Zachary’s hand clenched in Marley’s hair as he fought to hold on to the last ounce of his sanity. He lingered so close on the brink, already. Marley’s mouth performed wonders to his cock. It was almost like she
could
read his mind. She was soft when he wanted it, her suction harder when it needed to be.

Marley’s fingers clutched his hips as he tried to break contact with her mouth. Shock went through him when she dug her fingers into his skin, forcing him to let her finish. She needed this. He could tell she felt desperate to take a part of him inside of her. Zachary let her pump faster and felt himself swell. The pleasure from the suction had his eyes rolling back.
“Marley,” he said unsurely.
* * * *
Marley heard him but continued to pump him faster. After a few seconds, she felt him engorge in her mouth right as he exploded.
Sweet, with a hint of salty, cum filled every inch of her mouth. She swallowed every drop that she could get from him, delighted that he didn’t stop her when he could have so easily.
It registered in her mind how strange it felt that she was now completely satisfied. Yes, they could possibly have sex now. He remained semi hard, and she knew she could get him back in the game in no time, but no, he would have to wait until she was ready.
Somehow that empowered her.
He seemed to be reading her mind. Somehow, he knew she felt satisfied. Zachary shook his head back and forth, playing with her hard nipple.
“Marley, let me please you. Let me taste you like you tasted me.
You won’t regret it.” He gave her the wickedest smile she had ever seen.
Laughter struggled to get out of her throat. Marley knew she wouldn’t regret it. That smile alone caused her to become extremely wet. Her mind battled furiously with itself. As much as she wanted him to hurt for not telling her the truth about what she had gotten herself into, she couldn’t resist that smile or what he continued to do to her body.

With arms spread out, Marley fell back into the emptiness, trusting the nothingness to support her while Zachary’s hot tongue devoured her breasts. Need made her thighs separate while she moaned, giving herself to him completely. She never wanted to wake up. If they could stay here forever, everything would be perfect.
Luscious lips trailed between her ribs leaving a searing path while he worked his way down to her stomach. Impatiently, her hips wiggled down with wanting to feel him caress her pussy. She needed contact, the pressure of being filled.
Zachary read her mind, his fingers separating her folds. A desperate moan escaped her mouth. He used her wetness to glide his fingers over her clit in tiny circles, causing her legs to spasm uncontrollably.
“Zachary, slide them inside of me, please,” she begged.
Marley couldn’t take the emptiness that filled her. She needed completion. She needed him.
Two fingers eased inside of her. Desperate, she moved her hips down to meet his thrusts. Impatience surged through her veins. She wanted it fast and hard, merciless.
Zachary’s thrusts became demanding, causing her back to arch so she could receive him deeper inside of her. Zachary had mentioned wanting to taste her. This is where she would hold her power.
Willpower may not have let her resist him, but she would make him wait for until she felt ready for release.
It was the only punishment she had for him. When they would meet here in the future, this is where she would make him serve his time. Their projections would be the only place he would have her.
Never again would he have her in the flesh. Not until she found a way to forgive him for what he had done.
Marley already fought her orgasm once while he pounded his fingers into her. She could do it again. As the minutes went by, the urge became harder while his expert fingers tried different things. He wasn’t giving up.

Zachary’s face lifted up to look at Marley. He continued licking her clit while his fingers worked their magic. So many times Marley came close, and yet she made him wait.
That’s when he did something unexpected. He gave her one of his cocky smiles and, slowly, she felt his fingers withdraw from her.
Confused, she wrinkled her brows. What was he doing? Was he stopping?
Zachary traced the outside of her pussy, rubbing the wetness toward her back entrance. Marley tensed slightly, but he quickly removed them and slid back inside of her. His tongue worked her clit hectically, and that’s when she felt it.
One of his fingers slid into the entrance of her ass, and the orgasm was uncontrollable. Marley’s hips bucked wildly while she screamed his name. He removed them and flipped her on her knees. She had grown so out of breath she couldn’t have argued even if she wanted to, which she didn’t.
The moment his cock entered her pussy, his teeth entered the back of her shoulder. The last bite finalized it. He completed the blood tie and a thought so powerful rocked Marley. The words “blood tie”
alone scared her. He said something about reading her mind due to the bond, but what else did that mean he could do? She knew nothing about this, and yet she had freely let him, not even thinking of the consequences.
“Marley, please don’t pull away from me. I can tell you’re nervous, but please, I’ll explain everything to you afterward. Just come back to me, give yourself to me.”
Marley wasn’t sure how she was pulling away, but she could see herself becoming transparent and losing feeling. She couldn’t do this anymore. Disappointed in herself, her heart began to ache and so did her head. She couldn’t think.
“Please, Marley, come back,” Zachary pleaded.
His words echoed in almost a whisper, caressing her and trying to pull her back. With her mind, she jerked, feeling the snap. Heavy Ebook piracy is stealing. It is a federal offense.

eyelids fluttered opened, staring at the dark ceiling of the SUV. At the same time that she sat up, so did Zachary. She looked out of the window noticing the how late and dark it had become. Disoriented, she looked back at Zachary and was flood with the memories of what had just occurred.
Marley wasn’t even sure what she was doing. One moment, she was sitting there looking at him, the next, her body launched over the seat right at him. Anger consumed her, filled every crevice of her body.
“What have you done to me? Tell me! Don’t you think you’ve taken enough, my freedom, my life, now my thoughts…what else!”
Her fists pounded into his chest, yet he didn’t even deflect the hits. He let her kick, scream, and hit him until she lay limp in his arms. Tears dried on her face, leaving her skin tight, but she didn’t care anymore. Part of her hated him for what he had done.
Weak, she sat up, trying to climb back over the seat to the third row when he grabbed her around the waist and placed her on his lap.
Marley’s arms and legs ached, but it didn’t stop her from trying to go at him again.
“Marley, that’s enough,” Zachary ground through his teeth. His arms held her down easily. No matter how hard she tried to break free, she couldn’t move.
Angrily, their eyes met. Marley shook so hard in her rage that it took her a minute to register the pain he held in his features.
She had hurt him. Not physically, but emotionally. Guilt poured through her. Never once had she ever been this mean, no matter what happened in her life.
Although she had every right to be mad, she didn’t have to react or treat him this way. Marley was at a loss on what to do. She felt torn. Part of her wanted to tear him apart when another part wanted to hold him and tell him she was sorry.
“Zachary, let me go,” Marley whispered.

He shook his head, looking down at her. “I’m not letting you go until you understand. No matter what I tell you, you still refuse to come to terms with the way things are going to be. So I’ve decided not to let you go until you accept your fate.”
If Marley ever felt sorry for him it quickly vanished. All she had wanted was to be alone. Eventually, she would have calmed down and apologized, but now the urge to scream out in frustration choked her.
