Resisting the Moon (Royal Shifters #2)(51)



“What about Amelie and Laila?”

He kissed his way up my neck and chuckled in my ear. “They’re big girls, they can handle it. And if they don’t want to, the outdoors is wide and vast.”

I would’ve normally protested, but I needed him right then and there. After discarding our clothes, Sebastian crawled up my body, smirking in a way that made my body tighten. Closing his lips over mine, he reached down to slip a finger inside me. As soon as his fingers found me wet, he growled deep in his chest.

“You’re killing me.”

I bit my lip and smiled. “You know what to do.”

He stretched my legs wider as he got into position. Licking his hand, he rubbed himself and then pressed his tip against my opening. Gently, he pushed inside. I loved how he filled me. Holding my hands above my head, he made love to me while keeping eye contact. My body trembled and I could feel my orgasm building. He rocked his hips more vigorously, his fingers tightening around mine.

“I love you,” his voice echoed in my mind, making me smile.

My whole body tightened and I moaned. “I love you too.”

Digging my nails into the back of his hands, I screamed out his name as he released inside me. Still connected, Sebastian let go of my hands and kissed me, his lips warm and smooth. “You have no idea how amazing that felt.”

“I know what would feel even more amazing,” I whispered. I thought about what I wanted in my mind.

He bit his lip and smiled. “You sure that’s what you want?”

Tilting my head to the side, I blew out a shaky breath. “Yes.” I was scared about us simultaneously taking each other’s blood, for fear of what I’d see in our vision. But if we didn’t do it, I’d always wonder. “I want to taste you too,” I murmured. He licked his lips and slowly edged closer to me, his mouth on my neck. Breathing me in, I felt his fangs press against my skin. “I’m ready, Sebastian.”

His teeth sank into my neck, as my own found purchase in his shoulder; the sweet taste of his blood flowing down my throat. Everything around us changed and we were thrust into a magical world of swirling mist. Only this time, it was a real place, and Sebastian was right beside me.

“This is weird,” I said, glancing around the field. There were mountains everywhere, but we weren’t in Wyoming. “Where are we?”

Sebastian intertwined his fingers with mine, a twinkle in his eyes. “Canada, my home.” He pulled me with him and pointed at a house in the distance. “That’s my house down there, or what used to be it. It’s changed so much. I haven’t seen it in so long.”

We walk toward it and I could feel the cool breeze sweeping across the landscape. “It’s beautiful here,” I said in awe. If I didn’t have my family in Wyoming, I’d move there in a heartbeat.

Sebastian nodded and I couldn’t help but notice the fascination on his face. He’d lived his life protecting others. It made me wonder if he missed the kind of life he could’ve had, one of freedom.

His gaze met mine. “I had freedom, love. Freedom is choice, and I chose to protect my kind. It was what I wanted to do. In the end, it brought me to you. I wouldn’t change a thing.”

“Nothing?”

He leaned over and kissed me. “Nothing.”

The closer we got to the house, the faster my heart raced. “What do you think we’ll find in there?”

That was when I heard it . . . laughing. We were almost to the house when the door burst open and an older version of me came running out. I barely recognized myself. My skin was wrinkled and my long hair had lost its blonde in favor of a bright white.

“Holy shit, that’s me,” I whispered.

Sebastian chuckled. “And you can still move too.”

I smacked him on the arm. “Let’s see how you catch up to me, old man. You’re a lot older than me.”

The old me held up her hand to shield the sun from her eyes, her chest rising and falling with her rapid breaths. “Sebastian? Where are you, old man?”

I burst out laughing. “She actually said it. This is crazy. I wonder where you’re at.”

Sebastian smiled and pulled me close. “Don’t worry, I’m coming.” I searched around the land, not finding him anywhere.

“Don’t tell me you’re scared?” The old me laughed. She started walking back to the house and that was when I saw a blur out of the corner of my eye. The old Sebastian came out of nowhere and lunged for her, taking her down to the ground. She laughed as they rolled down the hill.

Sebastian and I rushed down after them and found them holding each other in the grass, still laughing.

“You’re still as beautiful as ever,” Sebastian murmured.

I finally got a good look at the old Sebastian and my heart raced. His hair was white with wisps of dark gray, but no amount of wrinkles could take away the handsomeness of his face or the brightness of his blue eyes.

“And you’re still sexy as hell,” I replied back with a wink.

The old us started to kiss and when they stopped, they just stared into each other’s eyes. It felt strange spying on myself many years from now, but it gave me the closure I needed. We had a chance to live a long, peaceful life together.

“Do you think all visions will be like this?” I asked.
