“Maybe it should have been longer,” I tell her truthfully.

“Why longer?”

“Because there is still so much darkness in my head, Sage. So fucking much I can’t turn off.”

“So what?”

“So what? So I didn’t want to hurt you, Sage. I didn’t want to hurt the baby.”

“And you don’t think you hurt me by leaving me this long?” she asks, pain lacing her voice. I know I fucked up leaving her, but there was nothing I could do. I needed the space. I needed the time to work on some of the demons inside me.

“You know that’s the last thing I wanted to do to you.” The knife presses into my cock a little harder, causing me to bite my lip. Fuck, she doesn’t know what she’s doing to me right now. Or maybe she does, and she fucking likes it.

“Why’d you come back, Ares?”

“Because you’re mine, Little Lamb. You’re fucking mine, and you have been since the day I touched you in the pool.”

“I’m not yours. You left me. You could have come with me, Ares. You could have been there when I cried at night. You could have been there when I found out I was pregnant or when I felt so fucking alone!”

“You know I was always there, Sage. I’m a part of you, just like you’re a part of me. We shared our blood; we made that deal.”

“You made that deal,” she sneers at me. I nod my head. I get it. I fucked up.

“Fine. Say you don’t want me, Sage, and I’ll leave.”

“What?”

“This is yours. All of it. I wanted you to have a place of your own for you and the baby. This is it.” Her eyes fill with tears before she quickly blinks them away. She shakes her head and swallows hard.

“What do you mean?”

“Just what I said, Sage. This is yours. Say the fucking words, and I’ll leave. Tell me you don’t love me,” I demand. She tilts her head to study me for a long second, but she doesn’t say anything. I reach for her hand and remove the knife from her fingers. I toss it to the floor before I move in on her. Grabbing her around the throat, I pull her toward me.

“You fucked up, Little Lamb. You should have said the words,” I tell darkly.

“Why?”

“Because now you’re mine again, and this time it’s forever.” Before she has the chance to say anything, I crash my mouth against hers. I kiss her roughly until she gives in to me. She moans into my mouth, and everything else seems to fall into place.

I push her back away from me, and she watches as I kick out of my jeans and shoes. She steps back, climbing on the bed, her legs spread for me. I growl as I climb in between and get ready to take her.

“Are you going to say it, Sage?”

“Say what?” she asks as she watches me. I grab my cock and thrust into her, watching as her eyes roll back and listen to her moan.

“Say it, Sage. Fucking say you don’t love me!” I growl as I lean down and bite her neck. She cries out, and that just makes my cock harder than it was. I fuck her, and I fuck her good. I lift her leg and get in as deep as I can. My body is buzzing, and I can’t seem to stop it. Sage reaches up and wraps her arms around me, holding me to her.

“Ares,” she cries out.

“No. Say it, Little Lamb!” I roar in her ear.

“I love you, Ares. I love you.”

She lays with her head on my chest, breathing softly. Her warm breath dances over my skin, and I love every second of it. This is where she’s meant to be. Right here in my arms, with me.

I sigh when my phone rings. I stretch my arm out, grab it off the nightstand, and answer it.
