Chapter 6
Pyra waited for Eden to get cleaned up and paced around. He didn’t want to be away from her any longer than he had to be. There was too much lost time, and he was a wreck. He’d gone home and taken a shower while his mother was with her.
His mother helped her out and she smiled at him. “She’s all good to go. I told her to just holler if she needed me.”
He jumped up and kissed her cheek. “Thank you.” He took over and guided Eden to the couch. He hated how weak she was. She was rail thin and didn’t look well, but to him she was the most beautiful woman in the world.
“I feel like an old woman. Get me a walker so I don’t need help,” she said tensely.
He chuckled. His mate didn’t like to be taken care of, or needing help.
“Do you want to go home instead of staying here? Ciyrs can do the tests later.”
“I want it over with. I want to know if I’m still going to freaking glow and heal like I did.”
“I doubt it. He thinks that is what caused this, but since no healer in all of history has ever brought a human back to life we have no fucking clue.”
“I still feel different, only less sick.”
He went into panic and sat her down and rushed away without waiting for her to say anything else. Ciyrs came rushing in behind him.
“He says you still feel off?”
I glared. “I didn’t mean to go get the doctor. I meant the changes I felt before, I still feel them, but I don’t feel like I’m going to pass out or anything. I don’t feel like me though.”
Both men visibly relaxed and she laughed. “Geez calm down.”
“Eden you have no idea what it was like for us.”
“I know, I wasn’t aware of anything.”
“Well we were.”
“Fine, do your tests if you have to.”
Ciyrs took another few vials of blood and Pyra took her home. She wouldn’t be leaving his sight, and if he had to be somewhere someone would be with her. Last time he left her she went into a three month long coma.
I lay in Pyra’s bed and sipped broth from a coffee mug. It had been three weeks since I woke up and I was still too weak and everything else I ate came back up. From Pyra’s worried expression, he was about to cart me back home and have human doctors do some tests. Ciyrs still hadn’t found anything and no one would listen to me. I was fine—mostly. He hadn’t touched me sexually since that last night and I needed a release. He was so worried about hurting me, but I worried it was because I was so ugly. I couldn’t even stand to look at myself. I was a skeleton. It didn’t matter how much I tried to eat. Something in my life was missing, only I didn’t know what it was.
He came in and smiled. “How are you feeling, love.”
“The same. Come sit with me.”
He nodded and sat next to me. I was getting stronger. I climbed on his lap and laid my head on his chest. It was my favorite place to be. I felt his heart thump, and he wrapped his arms around me holding me close. I tipped my head back and looked at him.
“Kiss me.”
“It’s too soon.”
I glared. “I’ve been awake for over three weeks. When isn’t it going to be too soon for you? Have you wondered if maybe that’s what I need?”
“If that could heal you baby I would fuck you into the next universe.”
I gasped at his words and my eyes dilated.
It was then his eyes widened. “Your eyes—they’re orange.”
I felt him harden for the first time and moaned. “Kiss me, please I need you.”
I felt his resolve chipping away. “I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t.”
He closed his eyes, and I took the opportunity to press my lips on his. He stayed still while I kissed him. I kept the pressure light and slid my tongue along his bottom lip. His hands tightened, and I smiled against his mouth. He would give me what I wanted.
I pressed my body against his and rubbed against him. “Please, please take this ache away.”
His eyes shot open. “You’re hurting?”
I sighed and gripped his hand and shoved it between my legs. I knew he’d feel the heat and wetness through my shorts. “For you. Do you not want me?”
He growled. “Of course I do.”
“Then prove it.”
His eyes flared and he set me on the bed and stood stripping. I smiled. Finally, my core throbbed. I didn’t know what the hell was wrong, but something inside of me knew if he would give me what I needed I’d start getting better.
I lifted my shirt off and wrapped my arms around myself. I didn’t like my body, but when he eyes brightened I knew he still found me desirable.
“They’re still orange. I don’t know how this is fucking possible, but you’re one of us now, or at least you’ve adopted some characteristics.”
He was stunned, and at the moment I didn’t care what the hell color my eyes were. I wanted him in me, over me, and under me.
He walked towards the bed. His eyes were feral and a wave of lust washed over me. “Hurry.”
“Lay down. I’ve got to do this right, gently. I refuse to hurt you.”
I nodded and laid down spreading my legs wide for him. He could see the proof of my arousal.
“Oh shit.” His control broke and he was on me, but when I felt his fear I rubbed his back.
“You won’t hurt me,” I whispered.
“Never.” He slid inside me so agonizingly slow I cried out in frustration and went to lift my hips but he growled. “No, we do this my way.”
I whimpered when he slid out and then slowly eased back in.
My body wanted him so badly. “I can’t wait, seriously I need you inside of me now.” Then before he realized what I was doing I wrapped my legs around him and that pushed the rest of him inside me.
I moaned and clenched tightly around him holding his cock inside of me. “See I’m fine. Actually I am better than fine. Oh god you feel so good.”
His eyes widened. “You feel—different, familiar.”
I knew what he wasn’t saying. I suddenly knew what happened. Why I was so sick. Somehow Ciyrs changed me. I was now a female Denynso. I wasn’t sure how much so but enough that my eyes were orange, and apparently my pussy felt like a female Denynso.
“I’ve changed.”
He nodded and thrust in and out of me with ease. When I showed no discomfort he calmed and sped up. It was still slow and sensual, and I held on to him tightly as he rocked into my body. My senses heightened, and I could smell his arousal and mine mixed. I moaned and cried out when I climaxed. When my pussy tightened around him he grunted and I felt him come inside of me.
He clenched his teeth and sped up to finish releasing his seed inside of me. I grabbed his face and kissed him with love. For the first time I felt it, I felt how he felt for me when we met. It all made sense. He was mine and I was his—forever. I would never let him go.
