Devin grinned. “Do you like it? You moved too much the last time I ate you and it was annoying to lie between your legs so long, so I came up with this. Undress and crawl up there.”

Anna obeyed. He cuffed her wrists above her head and adjusted her height so she had just a little bit of weight on her knees, which were spread apart and chained to the front of the table near the chair, angling her lower body toward him. Devin sat down and smiled. “Perfect. It’s much more civilized to eat at a table than in bed, don’t you think?”

Anna didn’t know how to respond, and he didn’t seem to care if she answered. He leaned forward and began licking at her. Despite her discomfort, she found herself moaning as he flicked at her clit with his tongue.

Devin growled. “Stop wiggling, or I will shove a stick up your ass to keep you still.”

She held as still as she could, but found herself leaning into him, desiring release even as he licked her raw. But whenever she was close, he would move his tongue away. She grunted in frustration.

“Your orgasms are mine to give you, Anna. Your body is mine, remember? You don’t get an orgasm unless I say so.” He looked up at her, his mouth wet with her juices. He licked his lips and smiled. “You are delicious.”

He continued to lick and suck at her, and her eyes filled with tears as the pain increased. And then it lessened as her entire body grew numb. She hung limply from her wrists. It felt like he was sucking the life out of her. Maybe he was. Her eyes closed and her head fell backward.

When he finally uncuffed her, she collapsed in a heap to the table and would have hit her head, except that Devin caught her and carried her to the bed. He undressed and fucked her, but she didn’t feel anything.

Kaveh showed up a while later. “You got it all out of her.”

Anna couldn’t move. She felt... empty. Not dead or sick, just... like a part of her was missing.

“You do know she needs some of it to survive,” Kaveh said.

“So, give her some. What you give her, I want. I can’t help it if I drain her dry.”

Kaveh grunted in disapproval, but the bed moved and she felt a nudge at her lips. He caged her jaw to open it and shoved something inside. Instinctively, she started sucking and tasted Kaveh’s cum.

Devin laughed. “She knows what she needs. Just like a baby for its mother’s tit.”

Kaveh lay next to her, his cock at mouth level. She pushed herself forward and lay her head on his muscular thigh, sucking eagerly on his massive cock. He groaned and put his hand on her head.

Her energy returned as she sucked him. His hand tightened on her head and he slowly fucked her mouth. She eagerly swallowed every drop he offered as he came, and then rolled onto her back.

Devin looked at her hungrily and lunged at her, but Kaveh snaked out his hand to hit his chest. “If you want her to survive this, especially long term, you need to let her rest. Fuck her all you want, but take no more of her essence after your session. She needs to replenish.”

Devin growled, but sat back. “Fine.”

Kaveh looked at her. “Sleep, Daughter.”

She closed her eyes and listened to Devin and Kaveh arguing as she drifted off to sleep.

Chapter 72

Devin nudged Anna’s legs apart and thrust inside her. She opened her eyes to look at him as he held her hands by her head and fucked her hard and fast. She moved her hips, feeling the build inside her, but he came before she found her release. He slapped her face when she hissed in frustration.

“They are mine to give. Don’t forget that.” He rolled off her and stood. “Your car is in the garage. Your ballet shit is in the other room. Use your family credit cards for lunch and whatever the hell else you need. You will come home immediately after rehearsal, clean up, and be ready for Kaveh when he arrives. Then you will wait for me in here as instructed previously.” He looked her up and down. “Make sure you eat properly. I don’t want you losing weight again.” He spun around and stalked away.

Anna crawled to the edge of the bed and stood on shaky legs, staring at the floor for a moment. She glanced at the clock next to the bed. She had an hour and a half before she needed to be at the studio. Inhaling deeply, she tried to get a sense of her body after being numb the night before, and then headed into the bathroom.

The glass steamed up as she stood under the hot water in the shower. Had it really only been a month since Vitaly’s funeral? She’d lost Peter and a baby, but Wilhelm and Kurt were back in her life. Kind of. She’d made Kurt let go of her so he could find someone and be happy. And now she was back where she’d begun, with Devin. No matter the events in her life, good or bad, she always ended up back with Devin. He was inevitable.

Maybe if she was good Devin would be nice again. Yes, that’s what she would do. Be perfect for him and not give him a reason to be angry.

With that resolve, she finished her shower and got ready for the day.

Anna carefully drove Alex’s car into the city in and repeated Devin’s rules in her head over and over again. Eat properly. Go home immediately after rehearsal. Behave. Let Kaveh chase me to please him. Don’t go anywhere without permission.

She sighed. She thought she could do it, but how often she had failed in the past!

Her phone beeped as she turned off the car. She pulled it out of her bag and her mouth dropped open. Thirty missed calls. Fifteen messages. Twenty texts?
