What you wanted

ZARA

My grin widens as Kade staggers, stunned by the intensity of his climax. His come tasted far too good not to swallow and when his thumb brushes my cheek, it’s hard not to gush.

I tell myself I hate him.

I tell myself I only feel this way because of the ebon chain.

I tell myself I can’t possibly be enjoying this for any other reason, and try to tell myself that I have taken no pleasure in the last few minutes.

But even I know that’s a lie too far. My head and heart won’t believe it and the dazed look from the man standing before me has me feeling many fabulous emotions I shouldn’t be experiencing at all. Not with someone like Kade. Not with a warlock.

I shake my head and try to reconcile how I feel about this man. I hate him. Truly, I despise him. I won’t forgivehim for murdering my sisters but somehow that’s paling into insignificance. It’s as if their sacrifice means nothing now the ebon chain ties me to him, and nothing that happened before seems to matter.

He hums as his thumb keeps stroking my face and I lean into it, seeking more praise from Kade.

“Such a good slut,” he muses, his eyes sharpening as they focus on me. “Now thank me and I’ll let you have my cock again.”

My teeth clamp against each other. “That wasn’t the deal.”

“Let’s get something straight right now, kitten. I’m not soft. I’m not kind. I’m not submissive, not in any way. But I am a damn good fuck and you’re dripping for my cock. I can walk away right now and make you suffer until you give me what I want, or you can spare yourself the misery by thanking me like a good girl.”

I toss my head and his hand slaps my face. Its sting burns and my mouth falls open as I gasp, shocked he’s actually hit me.

“Last chance, kitten,” Kade growls. “It’s two little words and then I’ll fill your tight little cunt with my fucking huge cock.”

My legs shake and my core trembles. I’m getting off on this, and Kade knows it. I know he knows it and we sigh in unison, both wondering how far I’m willing to go for the pleasure he promises. I’m not exactly naïve and I’ve gone to some lengths before, but this is different. This is Kade. This is a warlock who’ll take a mile if I give him an inch, and I don’t know if I can trust him not to screw me over.

“You’re fucking with me, aren’t you?”

Kade laughs and I squirm, unsure if I’ve just made a fatal mistake.

“Of course, kitten. But I give you my word you’ll be satisfied by the time I’m finished. You don’t need to trust me to know it’s true. The blood weave will take care of your needs, at least in this instance.”

My eyes narrow and I remind myself I need to persuade him to tell me more about how this damn bond works. He’s said it’ll pull us closer together and hurt us if we try to move apart, but I’m guessing at some point it’s satisfied our connection is secure enough to let us part. At least for a little while. At least if we have to or we both agree on it.

“Fine,” I huff. “Thanks.”

Kade arches his eyebrow and shakes his head. Just once. Because he doesn’t need to do more. We both know I’m being insolent and now we both know he won’t tolerate that kind of behaviour.

I grind my teeth and my eyes find a really interesting rock. It’s grey and smooth, utterly dull and perfect to distract myself from what I’m about to do.

“Thank you.”

“For?” he asks.

I groan and stare harder at the rock, wondering why it hasn’t exploded or shattered into a thousand pieces under the intensity of my gaze. My weight shifts as the heat between my legs becomes an inferno and my clit is so damn sore that it takes almost all my willpower not to relieve the ache myself.

“Feeding me your cock.”

Kade exhales and only now he’s releasing it do I see his tension. I let my eyes wander back to him, following the lines that make up his muscular frame. I follow his torso down until I find his hand still gripping his cock, awestruck, as he pumps it slowly.

“You’re still hard.”

“It’s a talent,” he says in a tone of pure cockiness. “Tell me how you want this, Zara. Tell me everything, all the dirty fucking details so I can fuck you the way you want me to. The way you’ve always wanted someone to fuck you.”
