He pulls his hips back, a long, slow slide that makes me gasp, and thrusts back in. Then he sets a rhythm that’s steady and deep and fills me completely with each stroke. His lips part and he huffs out short breaths, but he never takes his eyes from my face. I want to see him like this in every part of life. There is so much intensity in him to match his soldier’s strength, and when it is all focused on me, it’s the only thing I want in the world.
His kisses are deep and include a few nips of my bottom lip. It seems he will never be satisfied that I have had enough pleasure, because he makes me come again with his fingers, and then again with just the angle of his hips.
Delirious with pleasure, I fall apart on the sheets, gasping and crying out and trembling. Ryker switches to making me come gently, which I had not thought was something that he could do after I had come so many times, but he can do anything.
I can do anything with him.
This is a form of magic. This pleasure and union. It’s strong and this spell will never be broken. I come again just from that thought, and Ryker growls into my ear, speeding up his thrusts.
It feels as if it’s healing the broken parts of me and doubling my powers and clearing my head all at once. This has to be fate. It has to be a sign from the moon.
As another orgasm threatens, I cry out, clutching at Ryker, begging even though I can hardly form words. I know it will not make sense to him. It does not even make sense to me. But I want him to stay. I want him inside me. I want him to be with me, no matter what happens.
Ryker answers with his body. He pumps deeper inside me, thrusting with so much power that he can hardly find my lips with his. He manages it every so often, and we press open-mouthed kisses to each other’s lips. It’s sinful and everything I need right now.
I spread my thighs wider and hook my legs behind his back, and then I have no choice but to fall off the edge of a forbidden cliff on the all-consuming pleasure of him.
He fucks deep into me and roars out his pleasure as he comes deep inside of me.
We fall to the pillows after that, and Ryker throws his arm over me. For a while, there is no sound but our heavy breathing.
As sleep drifts into my mind’s eye, I don’t think I could get up to go to the window and search for the moon, but I do not need to. The moon is always there.
I close my eyes and picture her in the sky.
Please, I think, with my heart as open as it has ever been. Let me have this love in all that it can be. Please, let him stay with me. I want our broken souls to heal each other. He is already healing mine. Please.
I take a few deep breaths.
“So mote it be,” I whisper to the moon. “So mote it be.”
I am still whispering it as I fall asleep.

RYKER
Ididn’t doubt that Idalis was my mate. It’s not the kind of knowledge that can be doubted. Not the kind of feeling that can be second-guessed for long. It’s far above the level of thought.
But if I had doubted, all of those doubts would have disappeared as she came for me, over and over again, and with me, staring into my eyes as if she had never seen anything more intriguing or precious.
When I finally come inside her one final time and find myself dragged down to the depths of a peaceful sleep, I have the feeling the night will last forever. It’s as if the moon has stopped time for us, and I don’t need to worry about the sunrise, or the following days, or my place in the army waiting for me even now.
I don’t have to worry about anything.
I’m no longer cursed, and I’m no longer alone. For the first time, I close my eyes in a perfect world. Idalis lies next to me, her heart beating fast but settling slowly as sleep takes her under as well.
