“Yes, but it hurts,” I murmured, hoping they would take pity on me and unchain me without making me play their stupid fucking game.
“You were right, Hazai,” Ramel murmured before crawling back on the bed and kneeling between my legs.
“I often am,” Shem purred. He abandoned his game and slipped up to the bed on my left, giving my other hand the same gentle treatment.
“I’m going to unchain you, Lilith,” Ramel said, leaning forward and touching my chin. I looked into his beautiful hazel eyes and took in the sharp cut of his jaw. He was so fucking pretty. Why did he have to be so damnevil?
“Thank you,” I whispered as Shem began rummaging through the nightstand again. I hoped this time it was for a key instead of more goddamn sexual torture devices.
Ramel chuckled, pinching my chin between his thumb and forefinger. “Don’t thank me yet, deathtrap.”
I groaned as he leaned forward, kissing me sweetly on the lips like he actually cared about me. I considered biting the shit out of his lip but thought better of it. I wanted them to untie me. I needed them to give me some space and freedom so I could figure out how to get the fuck out of here.
“Here,” Shem said, tossing Ramel what looked like a key.Thank fuck.My heart soared at the sight of it, only to immediately drop as Shem tossed another object to Ramel.
I frowned. What the…
Ramel held up the thick leather collar with a sinister smile. “You will wear this while you’re in the house. If you break any rules, we will leash you.”
“What the fuck! I’m not a fuckingdog!”I screeched, enraged at how degrading what he was suggesting was.
“No, but youdoneed to be trained. You’re still resisting. Don’t think I don’t know you’re already planning to run again. Until I can be sure that you will stay willingly, you will wear the collar,” Ramel said, leaning forward to fasten the collararound my throat. Shem tossed him a little padlock, and Ramel clipped it in place over the buckle. He leaned back, admiring his work.
“There.” He touched my chin, tilting my head to the side so he could see it better. I watched with horror as he immediately hardened. Lazily, he reached down and stroked himself as he examined this new form of torture he had forced onto me. “Fuck, that looks good on you.”
“Really brings out her eyes,” Shem said, grinning. Rage boiled in my chest, and my lip curled. I considered kicking Ramel right in his veiny, hard dick, but his eyes flashed.
“Whatever thought just crossed your mind is probably a good way to get yourself leashed for the day. I would strongly advise that you do what you’re told this morning if you want to be granted a little bit of freedom.”
I didn’t know how the fuck he could tell it was morning. It still looked like it was nighttime to me, and there were no clocks in here. I supposed I would just need to take his word for it.
He slid closer to me, spreading my legs wider as he did so. I gasped as he reached down and pressed on the plug that was still buried in my ass.
“Your life moving forward will be a series of rewards and punishments. How many you receive of each will depend entirely on you. For example,” he twisted the plug, and I yelped, arching against the uncomfortable sensation. I hated that it sent a line of need directly to my pussy. I yanked on the restraints, hoping the pain would bring me back to reality and remind me that I didn’t fucking wantanyof this.
“You were such a good girl last night that we’re going to untie you. It was Shem’s idea. Say thank you to Shem.”
I scowled but forced myself to look at my traitorous ex-cat, who was watching me with his hands in his pockets and an amused smirk on his face.
“Thank you, Shem,” I spat, making sure he heard the sarcasm in my voice.
Shem crawled onto the bed and kissed me softly on the corner of my mouth.
“You’re welcome, Lilith,” he purred against me. “We’ll have to work on that tone, but I’ll let it slide this time since you’re still learning.” He winked at me, and I shuddered. Ramel handed him the key, and I sighed in relief as he got to work unchaining my right hand.
Ramel ran a hand down my inner thigh, turning my attention back to him. “Now, I’m going to fuck you again before we go to breakfast,” he informed me matter-of-factly, stroking a hand up and down his hard cock.
“What? I thought I was being rewarded?!” I asked, ignoring the rush of wetness that pooled and focusing on the fiery pit of rage in my chest instead. The way he said it was infuriating. He said it like I belonged to him, and he was just using me for myintended purpose.
“You are, we’re untying you. That is your reward.” My right arm came free, and I groaned, pulling it close to my chest. Blood rushed back into my fingers, and I felt a spike of gratitude as Shem moved to untie the other one.
That’s so fucked up, Lilith. They’re the ones that tied you up!
“Now, you can either be a good girl and do what you’re told while I fuck you, or you can fight me the whole time. If you’re good, I will remove the plug from your ass when I’m done and allow you to get dressed before we leave. I might even let you take a shower.”
My other arm came free, and I hissed in a mix of pain and relief as I cradled it tenderly against my chest.
“Tell her what happens if she’s bad,” Shem purred, and I glared at him. He was watching me with a half-cocked grin on his face as if this whole thing was mildly entertaining and he was just waiting for something exciting to happen.
