“I am more.” My head lifted to kiss her, but at her shake, I grew still. Tauren shifted, and I followed her every move as she dipped in close. Her breasts were nearly in my face, and Idid lift again, sucking her nipple into my mouth. The click was quickly followed by another set of grinding clicks. It had my eyes shooting open as Tauren drew back to look at me.
Immediately, I drew my hands down, feeling the metal catch around my wrists.
“Taur…where—What are you doing?”
I looked towards my door, feeling my head shake in a sickening panic at what I feared. Had she lied about her feelings to get me cuffed? Had this all been a ruse for her to prove some sort of point?
“Where… That’s actually what you wanted to ask. You want to know where I got the cuffs. We both know the answer to that.”
“I can explain.”
“You don’t need to. I already understand.”
“You don’t. Taur, this isn’t funny.”
“It’s not meant to be. How do you think I felt when I unlocked that door?”
Shame. Betrayal. I felt my heart nearly collapse into itself. “I told you not to worry about it. To keep out. But this… How could you?—”
Lips crushed into mine, and my mind spun even more as she rocked her hips against me. I should turn away. I was angry, hurt at her revenge, but her kiss was stealing parts of me. My sanity. My rage. My pain.
“You were never going to let me leave.”
I jerked against the cuffs. “I told you that from the beginning. I never lied to you.”
She reached under my pillow, sitting and shifting as she adjusted so that she was sitting on myupper thighs. Leather strands close to a foot long trailed over my chest, and heat took over my face.
There was no denying it now… She had found her way into my secret room, and now she was using it against me.
“Taur, stop this. You’re mad. You want revenge. What are you planning to do? Hurt me? You’re already doing that.”
“Am I?” The strands didn’t stop caressing back and forth at her slow swings. Tauren didn’t even look at my face as she continued. “I’ve had hours to think over this. Over us.” Her eyes lifted to mine and the look sent my blood racing even hotter. “I said I understand, and I do. You wanted to try to brand your love into my body so that I could see it. Maybe to make me see my own. Am I right?”
My brows drew in, and my attention went to my name on her chest. Bleeding, raw….all me. And now she wanted this other part of me as well? “Taur.”
“Answer.”
“Yes. I wanted you to see it. Tofeelit.”
“Alright.” She nodded. “Me first.”
She placed the flogger down, easing to lay across my chest so that her face was inches from mine. The pressure against my cock had me moving into her.
“I’m showing you that you don’t need to restrain me so that I don’t run. Reid, I’m not going anywhere.And neither are you.From here on out, we’re in this together. You may be willing to go as far as it takes to make sure I can’t escape?—”
“Because you’re mine.”
“And you’re mine. So tonight, you’re going to see that. Every inch of you will know who it belongs to by the timeI’m finished, and come morning, you’ll have no more doubt. Are you ready?”
“Depends. Are you my girlfriend?”
“This isn’t starting off in your favor, Reid. I believe I’m the one asking questions.”
Tauren grabbed the small flogger and crawled off the bed, standing. Leather strands barely made contact as they slowly made their way over my chest and throbbing cock. When she reached my thighs, her arm drew back and an inferno branched against my skin. She didn’t go easy. She didn’t hold back. I almost couldn’t believe the power behind her swing. Heat grew a heartbeat as it mixed with the lust of her bloody form beginning to pace. The moan that left me couldn’t be stopped. I never saw her flipping our roles. I never imagined this.
“How long have you been planning to keep me?”
“Taur—”
