She nodded and dragged her teeth over her bottom lip.

“Now, tell me what you want. What you want me to give you. Pleasure or pain?”

“Both, Knight. Fuck me like you want to break me, and then fuck me like you want to put me back together.”

“Good girl. Now … watch.” My cock plunged in her hard. So hard, the bed slammed into the wall.

Over and over again.

I devoured her and ravaged her through the night.

She didn’t hold back in taking all she wanted either. I had claw marks and bite marks the next day to show for it.

But that was all she left.

I should have handcuffed her to the bed, knowing what I do now.

She snuck out before I woke and didn’t even leave a note.

Of course, I was resourceful enough to track down her number, and I texted her after three whole days of waiting to see if she’d reach out.

She didn’t.

And I couldn’t stand that I was considering getting eyes on her, that I wanted to know if she met back up with Tomás, that I was constantly checking my phone to see if a text came through.

You left.

Jasmina

Who is this?

This woman.

You know who it is. Don’t act like there were other men you left in the last week without leaving your number.

Jasmina

There were. Dozens.

My mind ran away with the idea … with how another man would love spreading her legs, love biting her plump lips, love hearing the sounds she made when she was close enough to orgasm to beg for it.

I want all their names.

Cool it, dumbass.

While you make that list, let me know when I can see you again too.

Jasmina

Never.

Wrong answer.

Come on, everyone needs a knight in shining armor sometimes.

Jasmina

Not me.
