"A witch’s heart is her compass; where it points, the magic follows."

Elysia

I t was definitely what I wanted, but I also needed her to be honest with me. I didn’t like that it felt like she was holding something back. All that worry melted away though as her lips met mine. The shared magic between us warmed my skin and brightened the area around us as our skin glowed, even as the cold wall of the tunnel pressed against my back.

Lunara’s lips set on a trail across my jaw down my neck to my collar bone. Each touch of her soft mouth sent flutters through my body.

“Is this wise to do here?” I asked as reality came crashing back. This wasn’t in the confines of my bedroom where we were safe and in private. “Maybe we should?—”

Teeth grazed my shoulder, and a low growl brushed my ear, sending goose bumps along my flesh. All reason fled me as I dug my nails into her jacket and leaned my head back. “Lunara. The things you do to me.”

She chuckled softly as she stepped back, threw off her coat, and ripped her shirt over her head. Both landed on the dirt floor at her feet. Her eyes swept from my face to my feet as she looked me over. “We have entirely too much on.” With an enticing smile, she shimmied out of her pants.

“What if someone comes down here?” I was stalling, I knew I was. Memories of the bedroom in Morgana’s house flashed through my mind. She’d made me climax so hard with just her fingers. I couldn’t imagine what else she could do to my body. This was all uncharted territory.

And I needed a map.

But even GPS wasn’t going to help me navigate my way around this. Swallowing my nervousness, I let out a shaky breath and followed her lead. After I discarded my jacket, she stepped up and grabbed the hem of my shirt, balling the material in her fists.

“Let me,” she purred, pulling the fabric over my head before letting it fall to the ground. Her gaze locked on mine as she reached down and grabbed the waistband of my skirt. Without breaking eye contact, she squatted and took the garment with her. “I’d forgotten the no underwear thing. Just means one less thing in the way.”

As she rose, I kicked the skirt off my feet and shoved it to the side with my toes. My heart pounded in my chest as a vision of her between my legs took over my mind. It was only a split second, but it was enough to make me weak in the knees. I’d never gotten premonitions like that before.

“You okay?” she asked as I wobbled in place. “Gods know I don’t want to stop, but if you’re not —”

I shook my head, halting her words as my cheeks flushed. I had to find my inner confidence to see where this led. Especially when I’d never shied away from men before. With the opposite sex, I found myself willingly accepting the challenge they brought. This would be no different.

Actually, I was hoping it would be different. This—whatever this was with Lunara—needed to be the thing that broke the cycle of horrible relationships.

As her eyes roamed my face, I finally said, “Just touch me.”

Her eyes sparkled with something devious as her lips crashed into mine. She devoured me like I was the last piece of cake and she wasn’t sharing. As her hands cupped my face, I reached behind me and undid my bra, letting it join the ever-growing pile below.

One hand left my cheek to cup a breast and she greedily kneaded it with her hand, rolling the nipple around as she swallowed my moans of pleasure.

“Mmm,” she murmured against my lips. “Your body feels perfect pressed against mine. She bit her lip as her eyes appeared to grow heavy with desire. I’m aching to taste you again.” She tugged me away from the wall and pushed me toward the slanted ladder.

I fell against the wood and gazed up at the trap door, knowing how well we heard the worker earlier when she was up there. “Someone is going to find us.”

“Not if you keep quiet.” Lunara dropped to her knees and wrapped her arms around my thighs.

She gave a tentative lick over my clit and I whimpered. “If we’re found out, this all stops.”

My hands fumbled for purchase on either side of the ladder as her head dipped between my legs once more. Her tongue was heaven as she licked around my clit, but as soon as she sucked it between her lips, I couldn’t contain the moans any longer.

“Oh gods,” I cried out, panting as I tried to hold in the next moan when she easily slid a finger into my wet pussy.

She let a second digit join the first. “I love that all this is for me,” she said between licks and nibbles. She crooked her fingers inside of me, hitting just the right spot. “No other woman has possessed you the way I am right now.”

My toes curled and I nearly slid down the ladder if not for the death grip my hands had on the railing. “Lunara,” I whispered between soft whimpers and choked down moans. “I’m—I’m so close.”

“Come for me, Elysia.” Lunara picked up the pace with her fingers, watching me grind and writhe on her hand, helping to escalate my own pleasure.

“Ahh!” My mouth fell open as my core clenched around her fingers. My body spasmed and shuddered as the pleasure washed over me in waves. “Good gods almighty, Lunara…”

She removed her fingers and licked up one side of her index finger and then down the other. “Victory tastes sweet, don’t you think?”

“Was I something to conquer?” I quirked a brow as I caught my breath.

“No, my dear. You were the prize.” She smirked and crooked a finger at me. “Come down here and sit. Rest.”

I sank to the ground and rested my head back against one of the steps. “Do you think anyone heard us?”

“You.” Her shoulder playfully bumped into mine. “You mean did anyone hear you. ” She pressed a soft kiss against my neck as she teased, “Probably.” Lunara sat confidently in her bra and panties, looking rather proud of herself.

She never got the favor returned to her in Morgana’s spare bedroom and I still felt guilty for that. Though, we’d been interrupted and hadn’t really had the chance to do anything else. I leaned forward and crawled over Lunara, forcing her to lay back.

“Elysia?” She gave a questioning look.

“Yes, Lunara?” I kissed her, my arms braced on either side of her body. My biceps shook, having had quite the workout from gripping the ladder earlier. Hell, my whole body ached deliciously from her, but I wasn’t complaining.

Lunara broke the kiss and shook her head. “I know?—”

I pressed a finger to her lips. “Shh! Let me make you feel good.” I placed languid kisses down her body, feeling little tremors with each press of my lips. I wanted to affect her as much as she affected me.

Easing her panties off, I tossed them aside, then placed soft, open-mouthed kisses across her hips. Each one went lower and lower until I teased the crease of her thigh.

She wiggled beneath me. With each lick, she spread her legs a little wider.

I stared at the junction of her thighs, trying to figure out what I wanted to do next.

“You’re thinking too hard, Elysia.” Her hand gently stroked the crease between my brow. “Just envision what you’d want done to you.” Lunara ran her hand through my hair with the softest touch. “And you don’t have?—”

I licked right up her center from the bottom of her wet opening to her clit, tasting all of her at once.

Lunara sucked in a breath so hard she nearly choked. “Dear gods. Warn a girl before you do something like that.”

Grinning, I lightly ran my nails over her thigh. “I’ll try to remember that next time.” My fingers walked over to her folds, teasing the edges of her opening. Her skin glistened from the moisture both from her and me. Secretly, I reveled in the fact that I was now in control.

“You still seem…hesitant.”

“Not hesitant, just pensive.”

“C’mere.” She guided me up and settled me against her.

What was she doing? I’d told her I’d wanted to give her pleasure.

“I don’t want you to overthink this.” Her hands briefly caressed my face before she shifted a little. “Let’s try something we can both enjoy.” She pressed her leg between mine and shifted a bit so one of my legs fell between hers.

And then she began moving.

“Oh!” The friction between us was sinful.

She ground her pussy against my leg and her soft moans echoed throughout the chamber.

“Shh!” I cautiously looked up at the trap door.

She pressed the leg between my thighs up against me. “Make me.”

I bit my lip and tried to contain the moan within my throat. “Fine!” My fingers tangled into her hand, pulling her head up as our lips crashed together. Opening her mouth, our tongues tangled together, each of us swallowing the other’s moans as we ground against each other.

We were nothing but a tangle of limbs, lips, and roaming hands as each moved against the other at a fevered pace. With each thrust against her, it brought me closer and closer again to climax.

Our skin began to shimmer the same way it had when we’d shared our magic the first time. I glanced at her forearm and saw it grow brighter with each passing second.

“Lunara?” I asked, concerned.

She shook her head, panting. “Don’t. Stop.”

I could tell she was close, because I was right there with her.

“Oh gods!” Squeezing my eyes shut, I saw stars as the first wave of my orgasm split me in two. Opening my eyes, I saw the whole tunnel was aglow in a greenish hue…from us .

My whole body convulsed from the pleasure and I could feel Lunara shuddering beneath me as well, her eyes squeezed shut like mine were moments ago.

I rolled off her and onto my back to find sparkles floating and swirling within the air like some magical fog around us. “What in the…”

“Our shared climax creates some pretty powerful sex magic.”

“Sex magic?”

“Yeah.” Lunara raised up on her elbows, breathing heavily. “Between two fae, it can help charge a spell that one of them might not be able to do on their own. I can only imagine it would have similar effects between a hybrid fae and a witch”

Suddenly, footsteps could be heard on the trap door.
