Page 37 of Their Offering

He towered over me for a split second before kneeling in front of my legs. I pressed them together in defiance, even though my middle was aching already.

After what happened upstairs with Keir, I needed to be fucked, even more now than before. He placed his hands on either side of my legs, and I had to focus hard not to melt into him. “You gave yourself to us as our offering, Lilly. You could have given us anything, yet you put your body on that altar. Now, it’s ours.” His eyes sparkled. “Aiden got you that night, but you still owe me what’smine.” He was whispering in my ear by the end of the sentence; I worked hard to keep my breath steady, but I was failing miserably.

His hands landed on my closed knees. My mouth went dry, and my heart raced despite my willing it not to. I bit my lip as I tried to think of something to say as I felt moisture pooling between my legs. I was soaked for him.

He rubbed his thumb across my bottom lip, and a quiet groan slipped out. “There’s our good girl.” My heart fluttered.

I wanted him to rip my clothes off right here and use my body however he saw fit. I was so distracted by my desire for him that I let my guard down and loosened my knees. He took the opportunity to spread them before I could regain my composure. He rubbed both hands up my inner thighs, and as he reached where they met, my head fell back, my face to the ceiling, my hips rolling to meet him, trying to feel more.

He slipped his hands into the waistband of my shorts and pulled them down before tugging my shirt over my head, leaving me in just my bra and panties. They didn’t match. I honestly don’t even know if I owned a matching pair.Damnit, I should have bought some while they were gone.All my doubts disappeared, though, when I heard him growl as he looked me over.

He leaned his head toward my middle and sniffed. The movement allowed me to see Aiden on the other couch, watching us. Even from here, I could see how hard he was, enjoying the show. “You smell so damn good. I want to taste you.” Nicholas pulled my panties to the side and slid a single finger in, pulling a moan out of me. He removed his finger and licked it clean, looking up into my eyes the entire time. “You taste fucking delicious.” He stood and offered me his hand. “Ready to give me what’s mine?”

I reached out for his hand, and he must’ve accepted that as my answer, because next thing I knew, I was thrown over his shoulder. I squealed, as he slapped my ass lightly, my pussy clenching at the impact.

“I can’t wait to fuck you, Lilly.”

Chapter 17

Keir

She shouldn’t have followed. She knew what she was getting into. I’d even told her to leave, and I’d warned her when she’d stayed.

Still, she refused.

I wasn’t sure if I admired her for her stubbornness or despised her for it. Few dared push me the way she did.

I was furious with her. She’d been so reckless the night she found the portal. She was half out of her wits when she’d done it; she’d thought the entire thing was a dream.Thatwas how drunk she’d been. I didn’t even pick up on it. I was so caught off guard by finding her, I didn’t even notice how impaired she’d been.

I’d let Aiden take her, make her his first. I could’ve had her that night then sent her on her merry way, none the wiser. She’d have thought it was just a drunk dream.

The moment she’d walked into my room, I’d wanted to rip her clothes off. The tension—the desire—was nearly unbearable.

The things I’d do to her had I let myself go.

“Okay, princess, just remember you didn’t leave when I gave you the chance.”

She nodded, consenting and submitting all at once. Such a good girl.

I grabbed her by the neck, her surprised gasp matching her wide eyes. I smirked, loving her like this: willing but fearful. She was scared of me. Good. She should be. I was her worst nightmare, the one who could—would—destroy her.

I leaned in until our foreheads were touching.

“Beg me to stop,” I told her.

Her eyes questioned me, looking back and forth between mine. She was trying to figure out why I’d ask such a thing.

I didn’t want to stop, but I knew I should, for her sake. If we did this, she would be ruined. She’d have to stop me. The need for her body against mine, my body inside hers, was too much.

Our hot breaths mingled between us. The smell and taste of her, sweet and earthy, already making me want to roll my eyes back into my head. She was irresistible.

“Beg me to stop,” I repeated. “Please.”

Her big green eyes just stared into mine as her chest rose and fell rapidly. The temptation to search her mind was overwhelming, but I wanted to be surprised by her. I wanted to hear what she had to say without knowing what was coming next.

She licked her lips, and I had to stop myself from licking them myself—making them mine.

“Why?” she asked, so quiet, I could barely hear her.
