I looked away before that care could dig too deep, disrupting all my plans.
Then I saw them, those deep citrine eyes at the very back, covered in shadows. A towering, muscle-bound presence watched me, his eyes burning like twin suns. Daring him with a lifted chin, I met his stare.
You want to watch?Then watch.
I turned back to my wolf.
Storming toward him, I pressed into his body, letting my hands wander his taut form. He hissed under the contact, his jaw clenched.
“This is your final warning,” I said quietly, my voice laced with threat and promise. “Anything can happen up here, and it’s all for the crowd to see. You okay with that?”
My hands toyed with the bottom of his mask as I ran my teeth along his skin, using just enough pressure to convince him to stay. I wasn’t going to force anyone. That was never my game.
Itempted. Iseduced. I made you beg for it and regret it later.
“Yes,” he murmured, firm, unwavering. “I’ve been waiting for you.”
The depth in those words made me pause, looking up at him in question, but he’d already closed his eyes and tipped his head back, surrendering to me completely. That was all I needed.
Running my nose along his skin, I breathed him in. Delicious and sweet with a hint of heat, he smelled like the beginnings of a rainstorm and forgotten memories. My restraint unraveled.
Shoving up his mask just enough to free his mouth, I devoured his lips like an animal. Tongues clashed, sharp and hungry. He fought me for control, but his restraints made the outcome inevitable.
I owned him.
Sucking his lower lip, I dragged my tongue across it, earning a tremble and a moan. The sound pushed me to the next level, and I bit down on his bottom lip, hard. That burst of metallic tang on my tongue made my body coil with excitement. I wanted to devour him.Tear him apart.
Not yet, Ni. Not yet.
I pulled back, clenching my jaw before I fixed his mask, and watched his pupils stretch wide, more wolf than man now. His arms yanked at the chains as I climbed off him, a thick haze of desperation rising off him like steam from scorched skin. His eyes locked onto my blood-slicked lips. I licked them slowly, letting him see the crimson shine.
His growl vibrated the space between us, and it made my skin tingle and my pussy clench.
I liked him like this more than I thought I would.
Gripping his face between my hands, I kissed him again, rougher this time, lapping at the blood on his mouth. His body thrashed against the chains, desperate to get to me, so I slapped him. We’d just begun, and he needed to calm down.
His head snapped sideways but came back just as fast, a wicked smile curling on his lips.
“Who knew the soft kitten was secretly a cougar.”
Is he mocking me?I sucked in a breath, eyes narrowing.
Without breaking eye contact, I yanked open his jeans, the button popping off and onto the floor as I dragged the zipper down with agonizing slowness. My hand slid inside.
His eyes widened, panic slicing through the haze of lust, and Ireveledin it.
Leaning in, voice guttural, I growled, “I’m going to break you. Turn you into a puddle of cum and sweat. You’ll be fiending for more as soon as I’m done, but you won’t get it. You’llregretever stepping onto my stage.”
His reply was immediate, final. “Never.”
“What?” I hissed, squeezing down.
His body jolted, but his stare didn’t falter. “I. Will. Never. Regret. Today.”
My heart skipped, my hand loosening slightly with the force of my surprise.Who the hell is this wolf, and where did he come from?
“Do your worst,” he growled, chin high. “Whether it’s torture or pleasure, I’ll take it all, gladly. If it’s from you, it’s worth it.”
