The Monster in the Box Read online

  “You didn’t mark me,” she whispered.

  The creature cocked his head to the side. A low purr vibrated his body, including the parts of him still inside her. Rachel gasped, eyelids fluttering in pleasure. His tentacles slowly eased out of her and she could not hold back a whine at the loss. She stared in confusion, as he pushed her skirt up to reveal her thighs.

  “What are you…?”

  She trailed off when she caught sight of a strange mark on her inner thigh. The same symbol on the note that came with the box. The prince stroked a tentacle over the mark and she shivered. It was more sensitive than the rest of her skin. Rachel looked away from the mark to see the creature still watching her.

  She had been marked. The prince intended to keep her. She was not sure what she was supposed to feel, but all she felt was pleasure and the burn of arousal. Rachel licked her lips.

  “Alright. Now that you’ve marked me, what do you want to do with me?”

  The prince purred and jerked on her shirt. Several of her buttons popped free and her blouse gaped open.

  “Oh,” she moaned.

  They would get along just fine.
