“I hate you for bringing her here.”

“And I hate you for telling me I should while you went to your room with Archer, Viper.”

“Shut up,” she almost whimpered as I rolled over her clit again and again. I saw how her pussy was glistening, how she needed me to take care of her, but I needed to hear it. “Tell me this is what you wanted the whole night.”

She shook her head. “I just need to get off.”

“Bull. You need me to get you off, Jas. Say it.”

Her hips were rocking and her eyes shut tight, but she didn’t say what I wanted. So, I lowered my head to where I wanted to be.

I flicked my tongue over her clit and then dragged it down to taste her pussy again.

Wet. Tight. And still the sweetest cunt I’d ever had. I groaned as I buried my tongue in her.

The moans as her hands flew into my hair were enough of a sign to me that she wanted this just as much as I did. Both my hands gripped her hips and pulled her closer, so I could taste her deeper.

She cried my name over and over to a rhythm my tongue found, and then I was sliding one hand to work her clit too. She was close, rocking against my face faster and faster, but I needed more of her.

I lifted her from the bed, putting her legs over my shoulders, her thighs right up against my ears, and lowered myself onto the ground, lying flat on my back with her body above me.

She hesitated putting all her weight on my face even though it’s what I wanted.

“Give me all of you, Jas.”

“Callahan, I’m not going to suffocate you—”

“If I die, it’s where I want to be for what I deserved, right? Let me have your pussy the way I want it, and give me it. Sit on my face, Viper. I want to drown in you.”

She bit her lip, but there was only a moment’s hesitation before she gave in to her desire and my command.

She bore down on me, and I growled as I got enveloped by her scent, her body, the most intimate part of her.

I was lost to the sea of her, then. Lost, and didn’t want to find a way home. I lapped and licked at her as she rolled into my tongue. I gripped her ass, squeezing her globes tight, trying to get even more of her.

I watched as she brought her hands up, up, up to her hair, and then her pussy tightened around me as she screamed my name in the dark.

She was beautiful, flawless, unhinged, and free in that moment. It was the way I wanted her, the way she should always be.

Right then, I realized I wanted her to be screaming my name not just in the dark, but in the light of day for everyone to hear instead.

Yet, before I could make sense of it all, Jasmina came down from her high above me. Her eyes may have been hooded and her body relaxed, but she pushed herself to roll off my face, wasting no time getting away from me. She didn’t even so much as look at me as she grabbed her shorts and slid them back on.

I was too overstimulated, too feral for her, too confused at my feelings to move from the floor.

She looked down at me, her hands on her hips, and said, “If you really want me as your wife through and through, Callahan, I mean it when I say, you better earn me. Respect is a two-way street, and I encourage you not to forget that.”

She turned on her heel and left me lying on the floor like a dog in the dark.

Karma.

She was a damn viper, but I liked the bite.

Jasmina

I WENT TO BED somewhat rattled that night. My emotions were all over the place as I walked past Archer, but at least I could say I trusted him a bit more even as I closed the door to my bedroom and went straight to my shower.
