“Everything you want to do to me will be for mutual pleasure, right?” she asks, her voice soft.

“Absolutely,” I tell her. “Noah and I have some sadistic preferences, as we both get off on power plays that involve pain. Though, our true desire is to provoke a euphoric response to that pain.”

The way her brow furrows suggests she doesn’t understand.

Which stirs an idea in my head.

“Would you like a demonstration, Aurora?” I ask softly, my thumbs drawing slow circles against her hips. “Perhaps an introduction into what I mean when I refer to my sadistic cravings?”

Her pretty brown eyes study me for a moment. “I can handle anything you want to do to me, Lazarus.”

My lips curl. “Of that I have no doubt, Ms. Bianchi. But it doesn’t hurt to have a better understanding of what I want to do to you, whatwemight do to you together. Yes?”

A fresh wave of honeyed slick flavors the air, making my mouth water for a taste.

“How about we play?” I suggest, my voice deepening as my knot begins to throb. “And if you want me to stop, saywasp.” I pull that word out of my memory because Johan mentioned that he used it to describe Noah when sending him off to retrieve her from Widows Peak.

It’s also a play on her beelike scent.

“Wasp,” she echoes, her nose crinkling. “Seems like a strange term to use.”

“That’s exactly what makes it a safe word, Aurora.” I press my lips to hers, giving her a sweet kiss. “The point of it is to make everything cease between us and to tell me I’ve gone too far. You can use it with Noah and Johan, too.” I kiss her again. “We don’t want to hurt you, darling. Not really, anyway.”

She gives me a dubious look. “That sounds ominous.”

“It should,” I murmur, my hands slipping down to her thighs to pry them away from my body.

She starts to slide down, but I grab her hips and toss her into the nest.

“Strip,” I tell her. “I want you naked and wet for me in the center of that beautiful nest.”

The way she glares at me from her back makes my dick even harder.

“Now, Aurora.” I place my hand on my belt. “I expect you to go up on your knees again and bend over so I can see that slick pussy.Thatis how I want to be invited into your bed.”

Technically, it’smybed. But she’s marked it as her own.

And I fucking love that.

She can have whatever she wants from me.

Bed. Room.Knot.

Fuck, I’ll even hand over the entire Ferraro fortune. She can buy hundreds of cities and turn them into omega safe havens.

All she has to do is name her wish, and I’ll grant it.

Aurora slowly sits up, her gaze challenging mine.

I wait.

Then I make a show of unfastening my belt. She watches every move, her tongue sneaking out to dampen her lower lip as I pop the button on my pants.

I gradually draw down the zipper, careful because I’m not wearing anything underneath.

And smile when she takes in an audible breath.

Her tits move with the inhale, her aroma deepening as she claims my space with her sweet slick.
