“What dae yae feel, Nia?”
“Danger—from you,” she croaked as her anger dissipated, and I felt her become wary.
“And what else can yae feel coming aff me?”
Her confusion morphed into suspicion as she touched her neck. “What did you do to me?” Her voice became high-pitched and panicked.
She clawed off the covers and touched the centre of her chest, uncaring of her nudity.
“Get it out of me. What have you done to me?” she screamed as her nails raked her flesh.
I moved as quick as a lightning bolt to grip her wrist and pin her to the bed. She shook her head, but denial was futile.
“That’s oor mating bond. Nothing cun break it ahn it’s irreversible. Now,feel,” I said, pushing against our bond, I forced through waves of calming energy, forcing everything of hers out.
She stopped struggling and closed her eyes. The same bliss I saw during her heat resonated within her. I licked my lips, and my eyes returned to her mark. I gave her a little of the desire I felt. Her eyes snapped open.
“Is yer wee cunt getting wet, Nia?” I said with a cold smile.
When she didn't reply, I pushed my knee between her legs while pouring everything filthy thing I wanted to do to herthrough the bond. There was no resistance, and she opened her legs for me.
“Dae yae see now? It dusnae matter if we’re in the same room or a hunner miles away fae wan another.Thisis oor bond.”
I released her wrists to trace the scratch marks on her breasts and chest. There was no point in revealing more than I needed to about the bond. Not until she accepted me as her mate.
“If yae fight the bond all yer goin'tae do is harm yersel,” I said, grazing my fingertip down her ribs.
She is our mate. Conall protested with a whine.
Do you want her to run off?To put herself in danger?I snapped back at him.Until she starts acting like our mate, I will treat her how I see fit.
I splayed my fingers across her belly, and she raised her hips off the bed.
“Look at ye,” I murmured with a low and dangerous voice. “Yer body knows who it belongs tae even if yer mind dusnae.”
A shudder ran through her.
“Yer mine, Nia. Yae always were. Yae need to accept oor bond.”
I felt her resistance to my words, so I dragged my fingers through her dark curls until I reached her clit, teasing the flesh around it, but not enough for relief. Her pussy glistened, and I traced her lips with my fingers, smearing her arousal around her opening. Her breasts heaved along with her breath.
She wasn't in heat anymore, and there was no more pain. I pulled away from her.
“The choice is yours in how yae want tae live,” I said, climbing off the bed.
Her eyes widened with disbelief as I walked to the bedroom door. Leaving her with my cruel parting words. “With autonomy or without.”
Chapter 20
Nia
The bedroom door snapped shut behind him. He didn’t shout, rage or threaten me. He didn’t need to. A lone tear trickled out. I had no control of my body during the heat period, and now he used this—thing inside of me to control me. I angrily wiped away the tear and climbed out of bed, my muscles protesting at the sudden movement.
His bedroom reeked of us.
I was looking for some clothes when I remembered what I felt when I woke up. It was him. I could feelhisemotions. The affection, possession, and—I shook my head. He was toying with me. I gave up looking for clothes and returned to my destroyed bedroom.
With a shudder, I shut out the memory of misery and need. It didn’t work. Visions of our time together flickered like an old movie in my head—everything, even how I’d begged for his knot. I could still hear myself moaning his name, feel the phantom ache of his knot locking inside me.
