Tasting Darkness
Tempting Darkness Chapter 19

Lycus huffs and shakes his head before pecking Kalen’s lips. “He’s all yours,” Lycus laughs, pushing off Kalen, who tries to trip him as he saunters off toward the bathroom, where I could hear the shower running.

“Well, someone best be su_cking this c0ck. It won’t su_ck itself,” Tobias whines, squeezing his d!ck through his shorts. I chuckle and look expectantly at Kalen, whose lips tug up, and my smile falls when he gets to his feet, rushing toward the bathroom, and I hear the lock click in place. That little… I growl when Tobias’s hands fall on my shoulders, and I g***n, looking up to replace Tobias leaning over me.

“Hope you have your chapstick,” Tobias growls, and I g***n before gripping his arm and ripping him over the arm of the chair and onto my lap. How I missed him. We had been at each other’s necks, so to see him want me near without wanting to kill me and me wanting to kill him was thrilling, but I wasn’t su_cking c0ck this early in the damn morning. Tobias growled when I lifted my h**s while gripping his. “I am not su_cking c0ck, but you can feed on me,” I tell him, letting him sit up.

“Someone is su_cking this f*cking d!ck. I am not going to class like this!” he hisses, straddling my lap. I tilt my head to the side, and the temptation is too much, distracting him from his arousal momentarily as he sinks his fangs into my neck.

His tongue hungrily lapped at my neck, and his grip on my arms tightened. He feeds on me for a few minutes before pulling away, sated, and recharged. He runs his tongue over the bite mark when I hear Lycus’s phone bing making me twist my head to look at the nightstand.

Tobias clicks his tongue at Ryze, who flies over, scoops the phone off the nightstand, and brings it back, dropping it in his hand. “What’s wrong?” I asked Tobias as he flicked through Lycus’s phone. “Nothing,” he says, but the way his brows scrunched and the strange anger through the bond, which wasn’t directed at me once, was an indicator that he was lying.

“Tobias!” I asked, and he sighed, turning the phone around to show me.

500 “Like I thought. I will f*cking deal with it, “Tobias growls, climbing off my lap. I look at the screen and press my lips in a line. “What’s he want this time?” I snapped. “Probably the same thing as always, f*cking money.

And if I replace out Lycus was in the pits again for that bastard when he took off the other night, I will f*cking kill him,” Tobias snarls. Just as the bathroom door opens, Lycus steps out with a towel around his waist. His eyes go to the phone in my hand, and he storms over, snatching it from my grip.

“What the f*ck! Don’t go through my stuff!” he snarls, but I move before he can pull away and grips his wrist. “Were you in the pits?” I snapped at him.

He knows we hate him fighting, he hates it too, and if I replace out he is running around for that bastard again, he was in for a world of hurt. Lycus snarls and jerks his hand away, only to stumble backward and bump into Tobias.

“Answer him!” Tobias snaps. “I knew you smelt off when you returned home the other night after your run. I could tell you showered,” “I didn’t want to f*cking ask! It’s fine. I have it handled.” “Until he asks for more money. Cut him off.

I don’t understand why you still f*cking run to him whenever he comes looking for you,” I growl, furious. “I have it handled,” Lycus retorts, glaring at me as he storms off toward the closet. “How much is it this time, Lycus?” Tobias asks, but Lycus doesn’t answer when I notice Aleera standing by the bathroom door.

“What is going on?” she asks, looking at Lycus, who slams the closet door. “Nothing. Just f*cking Porter,” Tobias says.

“Who’s Porter?” “Lycus’s father,” I tell her, and she looks at me. “Wait, I thought his father put him in the orphanage?” she asks, and I nod my head. “Yeah, had nothing to do with him until he learned of who Lycus was mated to,” Tobias growls, walking off toward the closet. I motion to Aleera to come to me, and surprisingly, she does.

“Why would he talk to his father after that?” she whispered, still staring at the closet door where Tobias disappeared after Lycus. I tug her on my lap just as Kalen steps out, his hair wet and a towel low on his waist.

“What happened?” Kalen asks, and I grip Aleera’s chin when she goes to answer him. She seems to figure out my silent message as she looks at me because she doesn’t tell him. “Nothing, Tobias is harassing Lycus. So unless you want to su_ck his c0ck I would stay out here,” Aleera laughs, and Kalen’s lips turn up in the corners. I k**s her jaw, tugging on the front of her towel and opening it. She growls at me, snatching it closed.

“Are you right there?” she snaps at me, and my hand on her h*p moves as I squeeze her a*s. I tap her butt. “Get dressed. We have class,” I tell her, and I look at Kalen over my shoulder. “You will join us this morning. Tobias and Lycus will be busy,” I tell him, and he nods, moving toward the drawer to grab some shorts.
