When her release finally hit, her scream shattered the air, her body locking around him. His own followed, his body jerking against her, a relentless thrashing with growls tearing from him in roars.
Their bodies shuddered with the aftershocks. Nidev eased out of her, then carefully removed the toy, his breath catching as it left his body. She collapsed onto the couch, muscles wrecked. His body covered hers, chest pressing against her back, his breathing harsh, his arms locking around her like something might take her from him.
She felt his lips drag over her shoulder, his mouth trailing kisses along her sweat-dampened skin. The gentleness was a startling contrast from what they’d just done. But that was her King. He was her beast and guardian. Her destroyer and protector.
His voice was a gravelly, trembling rasp. “You feel it, Doo-nie? The way we’re inside each other?”
Her breath shuddered, her fingers curling over his forearm as if she needed to ground herself in his touch. “Yes,” she whispered. “I feel it. I never want to stop feeling it.”
A low, satisfied groan rumbled against her back. “Then you’ll love what comes next.”

Nidev slid his hands down her body then under her thighs, pulling her onto him. He stood with her and she latched her arms around his neck with a startled gasp.
“Are you ready for the final binding?”
Oh God. Was he finally making love to her? “Yes. So ready.”
He carried her to the bed and laid her down. The cool blankets were a shocking contrast to the heat of his skin, but the way he climbed over her, imprisoning her with his body, made everything else disappear.
His gaze locked onto hers, the silver blazing with something deeper than hunger. Something that stole her breath and made her tremble and crave.
His hands framed her face, his thumbs brushing over her cheeks. “I need you to see me. To see everything.”
“Okay,” she whispered, her voice broken and trembling. “I see you, Nidev.”
“Good.” His voice softened, but the intensity in his eyes grew fiercer. “This part isn’t just about pleasure. It’s about tying our souls together so tightly that nothing can ever tear us apart.”
Her chest tightened, tears burning her eyes as his words crushed her. “I want that,” she choked. “I want you. Forever.”
His groan was low and desperate, his mouth so gentle on hers it left her reeling. His hands slid over her body, slow and reverent, mapping the way to this binding.
“I love you, Doo-nie,” he whispered against her lips, his voice and words wrecking her. “I love you more than anything. More than my own life.”
Her tears slipped free, her fingers clasping his face. “I love you, too. I love you so much it hurts.”
His hands moved down her body, his touch almost reverent as he spread her thighs more, nestling himself firmlybetween them. His eyes never left hers, his gaze raw. “What we’re binding isn’t just our bodies. Or our minds. But our souls.”
“Yes,” she gasped, her hips arching to meet him. “Make me yours.”
His cock pressed against her entrance, the heat of him so fierce it made her entire body tremble. But his eyes… his eyes were pure devotion.
“I love you,” he whispered again, his breaths shaking. “I need you to feel it.”
He thrust into her with a single perfect stroke, sealing his body tightly to hers. Her cry mingled with his groan, their bodies moving in a rhythm that was slow and devastating.
His gentleness was almost unbearable, his hands tracing over her body, his mouth whispering words of love and worship against her skin.
“Look at me,” he urged, his voice a guttural rasp. “Keep your eyes on me. I want you to see me. I want you to know that I’m yours.”
Her gaze locked onto his, tears slipping down her temples. “I see you,” she sobbed. “I see everything.”
His breath trembled against her throat. “You’re everything. My light. My hope. My heart.” His hips rocked against hers, his thrusts deep and perfect, dragging her higher until she trembled on the edge. “I’m yours, Doo-nie,” he swore, his eyes blazing into hers. “In every way. Forever.”
“Forever,” she echoed, her voice breaking. “I’m yours, Nidev. Always.”
His groan broke with pure satisfaction, his pace quickening, hands gripping her shoulders as he drove into her. His drive turned frantic and desperate, all while his gaze stayed locked on hers, his love burning through every thrust, every burning breath.
