Bewitched, Bothered, and Bitten by C.C. Wood Read Free Book Online

what we shared two nights ago had been consensual. I had no right to be mad at him.
    He smiled. “Prove it.”
    “What?”
    “Prove how sorry you are,” he answered, his smile growing wider and revealing that his fangs were fully extended.
    “And how do you expect me to do that?” I asked. When he opened his mouth, I narrowed my eyes. “Think very carefully about what you’re about to say. I could probably set your entire body on fire with very little effort.”
    He chuckled. “How about a little kiss to make it better?”
    “Stop pushing me, Finn.”
    His hands framed my jaw, thumbs tipping my chin up. “I think it was you pushing me a few moments ago.”
    I rolled my eyes.
    “C’mon, Kerry. Surely, if you’re that unmoved by me, you could kiss me with no problem.”
    I scoffed. “What? Are we twelve? Next you’re gonna double dog dare me.”
    Finn’s thumbs met under the center of my chin. He leaned forward enough that our lips nearly touched. I could literally feel the heat of his mouth on mine.
    “I double dog dare you,” he whispered right before he kissed me.
    Damn, but the man could kiss. Any resistance I might have dissolved beneath his lips. Finn’s hands moved from my face, down my back to grip my ass so he could lift me off my feet.
    Shocked, I turned my head, panting so heavily I could barely speak. “Finn, put me down. I’m heavy.”
    He dragged the tips of his fangs along my collarbone, causing goose bumps to break out on my arms. “No, you’re not. Wrap your legs around me.” Finn moved his hips so the hard ridge of his cock rubbed over my clit.
    I moaned and lifted my legs, circling his waist with my thighs and locking my ankles together behind him. He rolled his pelvis, grinding the length of his erection against me over and over again. It was almost ridiculous how quickly he brought me to the edge of orgasm with a kiss and a few thrusts of his hips. I hadn’t been this horny since dry humping was a regular occurrence in the backseat of my first boyfriend’s car.
    Dear Goddess, what in the fuck was I doing? Despite what Finn might think, the coven elders would never accept a High Priestess with a vampire lover. They were convinced vampires either wanted to control or turn witches. Then there was the fact that he pushed his way into my dreams constantly, undermining my will to keep my distance. It was manipulative.
    Despite the fact that I was one breath away from an orgasm so strong it would incinerate my underpants, I tore my mouth away from Finn’s, dropped my legs, and pushed at his shoulders. I could practically feel his frustration as he released me, but he still let me go.
    “There’s your kiss. I need to return to the meeting.” I was glad my voice wasn’t shaking as much as my thighs.
    I vaguely heard his low, growling laugh as I hurried down the hall. I still had no clue where I was going, just that I needed to put some space between myself and the sexiest man on the planet, fangs or not.
    After a few wrong turns and backtracking, I managed to make my way back to the study. Finn was already there, looking completely unruffled. There was no sign that he had been seconds away from bringing me to orgasm five minutes ago. I wanted to zap him for that alone, especially since I was pretty sure I had no lipstick left and my hair looked as though it had gone a few rounds with a weed whacker.
    Conner and Lex exchanged looks after I entered, both of the handsome bastards were smiling smugly. Belinda gave me a questioning glance but I gave a slight shake of my head.
    “I’m glad you’re back,” she said. “We were discussing what safety precautions the coven and the pack should take until the Faction is dismantled. Conner and Lachlan suggested that you and I stay with shifters or vampires until a safe house can be arranged.”
    Scowling, I asked, “Why would we need a safe house, Belinda? The coven has been protecting itself for centuries without the help of vampires or
