She’d not been a virgin—her father’s men had made sure of that—but this was the first time she’d ever gotten to choose. The man between her legs was there because shewantedhim to be there.
Fabiana swallowed hard as pain filled her chest.
He didn’t—couldn’t—know how important this moment was.
“Pequeña.” Adonis swiped his thumbs under her eyes, drying the tears she’d shed. “There is only, and will ever only, be me. Nothing else matters. No one else matters.”
How?
How did he read it so clearly? How did he reach into her chest and take her heart?
His kiss was gentle, a moment of softness, a fusion of her taste and his before he moved. His thrusts became deep and hard. If they hadn’t been lying on smooth marble, his arm around her back for support, she’d have fallen apart. He gripped her thigh just under her mark.
“Mine.” Thrust. “Mine. Thrust. “Alwaysmine.”
Adonis’swords imprinted deep inside her, washing away anything that had come before. She wouldn’t have been able to break away if she tried. He was wild, letting go of her thigh and sitting up to change the angle before wrapping his fingers around her throat.
It wasn’t a hold to scare but one to keep her in position as he fucked her. His rough, jagged thrusts forced soundless screams from her. He watched her through it, growling when she wrapped her fingers around his wrist near her throat. She stroked his skin to soothe the beast. She didn’t want to get away; she didn’t want to break his hold.
In fact, she pressed his hand harder into her flesh.
And like before, he read her need, tightening his fingers until her pulse thudded in her head.
There.
Hot, liquid need swirled through her body, expanding every blood vessel and artery. Her nostrils flared, taking their combined scents deep into her lungs. Their bodies came together with thundering slaps as he pounded into her, wringing every bit of pleasure from her.
“Come for me again, Fabiana. Milk your cock.”
She couldn’t deny him and cried out. He released his hold on her back and lifted her other leg onto his shoulder, and the pleasure sliced through her.
“There, baby. Right there,” he urged, jerking her down to meet his thrust.
Implosion.
Fabiana caved, her whole body folding in on itself. Adonis rode her through it, pushing her hips higher for his thrusts. She took the whole of him with a cry.
“Again.”
He would kill her. She couldn’t do it again, couldn’t possibly climb any higher.
But she did.
He forced her to that place.
He’d dragged her step by step, pulling her away from the darkness of the past until his light was so blinding she couldn’t see beyond it.
Fabiana was hoarse and crying by the time he bellowed his release, her body limp and useless to do more than accept his seed.
“Sleep now. I’ll take care of you.”
That was one command he didn’t even need to give. Her eyes were already closing by the time he pulled out of her body.
