Chapter 89

89 (Lucian POV) Boundaries

Lucian

Making love to Mara never felt the same twice-but somehow, it always felt better. My body craved her constantly. That morning had been no exception. I needed her. And she gave herself to me-completely, fully, beautifully.

I’d also started to notice she wasn’t very vocal in bed. So I made a decision: I’d help her open up, ease into her pleasure more freely. She deserved to enjoy every bit of it, just like I did.

Breakfast followed. And for once, it was everything a morning should be-peaceful, quiet, ours. No Martha lacing every

bite with venom.
