Page 50 of Seducing Selena

“Yes.” The word was weak as Seb choked the life out of him.

“So you didn’t know she belonged to me, but you knew she belonged to someone and chose to touch her anyway,” Sebastian mused. “I’ve killed men for less.”

The man could no longer speak, struggling to get my Alpha’s hands off him. A small crowd was gathering in the nearby hall, staring.

“The only reason you’re not dead on the floor right now is because there are people watching—members of the public—and you’re not worth whatever lawsuit or fine killing you would bring. Not to mention our reputation. I don’t care who the fuck you are, whose son or cousin or whoever let you in here. No matter which side ofCatenayou’re on. When you’re in my domain, you follow my rules.”

He dropped him, and the man sputtered, hauling in a breath. “Fuck,” he groaned. “Overreacting much over some bitch?”

Metal flashed, and though it wasn’t visible to anyone else in the room, I saw the blade not pressing against the Alpha’s throat. “If you touch her again, I will kill you,” Sebastian said. “I can’t bar you from this club on a first offense, but if you touch anyone else who doesn’t belong to you, you’re out on your ass if I don’t get to you first. If I do?”

He let the threat hang in the air.

“Understood?”

“Understood.”

The knife disappeared and Sebastian picked me up off the floor, cradling me. I looked up at him, reaching up to touch his face as he strode with me to the elevator. “You saved me.”

The briefest touches of his lips on my temple. “No one touches what’smine.”

The crowd watched us as the elevator doors closed, Christopher Delano among them.

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

____________

SELENA

Sebastian strode into their apartment and didn’t stop. Where before there was no anger in him, now it poured off him in waves. Not at me, but at the man he nearly killed for touching me. We didn’t stop until we reached a room I assumed was his. Dark burgundy walls and rich wood furniture. A bed that went on for a thousand miles.

He laid me down on the bed and tore himself away from me before stripping his clothes off with a force that was beautiful to watch. Prowling to the bed, he spread himself over me, dark eyes fiery with a thing I couldn’t name.

Mine.

My soul recognized his in spite of everything.

He saved me when I needed it most, and right now, he needed me. There weren’t any words for him to say.

Seb grabbed my hips and flipped me over flat onto the bed. Shoving my thighs apart with his knee, he was there, cock pressing into me. So fucking big, and from this angle it felt even larger.

There was no mercy in him now. What little he had, he used to let the Alpha who touched me live. His fingers wove through mine, gripping my hands and pinning them to the bed as he began to move, fucking me with everything he had.

Ruttingme.

Ohgod. My eyes rolled back in my head, the way he moved, taking me with brutal instinct. He was in rut. Taking me back from that Alpha had sent him over the edge, and here we were.

His low growl sent arousal tearing through me. My pussy gushed wetness around his cock, only making it so much easier for him to fuck me like the world was ending. Did he expect me not to come? That wasn’t going to happen. When I did come, it was going to be an explosion like no other and there would be absolutely no stopping it.

Seb’s mouth was on my neck and shoulder, biting and licking before he spoke. “You say you don’t want to be a slave, princess. But every time we put you in your place, you surrender so fucking beautifully I can’t believe you’re telling the truth.”

“I—”

“Be quiet,” he growled, the Alpha command rolling through me, making me pant with need. He was already taking me hard, and the way he said it, pushing my hands into the comforter, made me need him to take me harder. “I’m going to speak and you’re going to listen while I fuck you, Selena.”

“Yes, Master.”

At this moment there was no doubt about who my Master was. It was him, and every piece of me believed it.
