of him. No, strike that. You need a shower more than I do, she told Suriel. His arms were streaked
with demon blood.
He grinned and lifted his sword. You don t like the gore? I think it adds a little character to the
blade.
She rolled her eyes. No.
Definitely no, Raphael echoed, standing up with a groan. He grabbed Gabriel s arm. Let s
go home.
Gabriel nodded and looked up the steps. The faintest light from the main level of the house
shone down. The smell is rather unpleasant, isn t it? he asked, ever the master of understatement.
Ariel shot her brother a disgusted look and began the long slow climb to the light.
Epilogue
Ariel woke slowly, warm and comfortable. Afternoon sunlight streamed across her bed.
How do you feel?
She smiled into her pillow and then rolled over. Suriel lounged on the bed, the sun highlighting
his arms and upper body. His legacy marks were very blue in the light. She stretched, taking the time
to work all the kinks out of her back. His eyes traveled down her body as the covers slid away. The
look on his face made her blush.
I feel good, she said, smoothing her hair. The sun warmed her muscles, baking some of the
ache out of them.
You do feel good, Suriel said, running his fingertips down her arm.
She shivered, thinking about how he d tied her up last time.
He smiled at her, wicked and hot. I d like to touch you all over.
She laughed, arching her spine. I bet you would. Her breasts tingled as his eyes fell on them.
Suriel sat up and the covers slid down. He was nude. The muscles in his chest flexed as he
grabbed her, flipping her onto her stomach.
Hey!
Shh, he said, spanking her lightly.
She squirmed. I didn t say you could do that.
I don t need to ask your permission, he said, bringing his hand down again.
She scissored her legs, flipping over. Suriel reared back, his erection bobbing as he avoided
her feet. Bad girl. His eyes twinkled as he grabbed her ankles, dragging her up into him.
Ariel wrapped her legs around him and ground her pussy into his cock. He grunted, shuddering
as her wetness spread over his shaft. She lifted up, sliding him over her clit. God, he felt good. When
he tried to flip her over again, hands on her hips, she sat up, pushing him down. He smiled up at her,
hips moving and teasing. She narrowed her eyes at him and shifted, wings slowly moving out of her
body until she loomed over him in angel form. The sunlight danced over her feathers, tingling as the
energy she contained rose like sparks from a fire.
His eyes went dark as she leaned down, kissing him harshly. I don t want to lose you, she
said, remembering the demon. We have no idea how many other demons came through the portal
before we sealed it.
He used his strength to lift her until he was standing with her in his arms. She wrapped her legs
around him, sliding his cock deep inside her body. He gasped, then abruptly, his wings shifted out
too. If there are more of them, we will fight them until they are all dead and gone. You won t lose
me, he promised, walking to the window. Every step he took pressed him further inside her. She
wrapped her arms around his neck and hung on, trusting him to keep her safe. With their bodies still
connected, he shoved the casement open and leaped outside.
Ariel gasped, wings and energy working even as he lifted them up into blue skies.
Are you crazy? she yelled, wind whipping her hair around their faces.
It feels good, he replied, hips suddenly moving.
Ariel looked down, shocked when she saw a few people down below them, standing on the
stone courtyard connected to the castle. A few of them were looking up, watching them, and the
knowledge of what they might see sent a thrill through her. She clenched her inner muscles and Suriel
groaned, fucking her harder as they floated higher.
They can see us, she whispered in his ear.
He groaned, grabbing her buttocks and grinding into her. The contact pushed on her clit
deliciously. Let them, he ground out, wrecked. They will know we are truly mated.
Ariel understood. Only a mating pair could ride the winds this closely connected without
plunging to their deaths. In the past, the People s tradition dictated a mating flight before witnesses to
sanctify a true choosing between lovers. That custom, like so many others, had fallen away in modern
times.
Perhaps it s time to return to the old ways, she murmured, reveling in his heat. His cock
speared her again and again, pressing against her womb. She shuddered, hanging on, and then he
suddenly stiffened. Ariel threw her head back as his orgasm triggered hers. For one blessed moment,
