I stare at him, and the world goes silent as the ground bends under my feet.

“What?”

“I have you forone year.”

“That…no.”

“Again, you seem to be under the impression that we’re in the negotiating phase. We’re not. It’s this, or that.Thisis you keeping to our agreement, after which, you’ll get back control of your former companies. Andthatis the door, through which you can walk and kiss goodbye any chance of seeing your money or your companies or your foundation ever again.”

I stare at him, my mouth agape as I slowly shake my head. “And what about all of the people whoworkfor those companies?”

“I quite honestly couldn’t give a fuck about them.”

I blink back hot tears. “You’re a fucking monster,” I hiss.

“And you were justcoming for me, like a greedy little slut,” he snarls, surging toward me.

I gasp when his fingers wrap around my throat, and instantly, the heat I felt before explodes again, deep in my core. My thighs quiver as wetness pools between them.

And hesmiles. Like he can tell. Like he knows.

“You like being my little whore, don’t you.”

I purse my lips. “You’re a pig.”

“And you’re my eager little slut.”

I shiver as my thighs clench. Deimos chuckles.

“I’ll have to remember you like being called that. Now tell me…” He lowers his lips to my ear, making me bite back a whimper. “What else gets that messy little pussy completely worked up?”

I clamp my mouth shut.

“What if I were to tie you up, or pin you down and fuck you without mercy?”

Oh God.

My breath catches in my throat as the darkness I keep locked deep inside me begins to hammer relentlessly against the door I’ve caged it behind.

“Interesting…” Deimos muses.

“That’s not…I mean, I don’t…”

“Oh, no, of course not,” he chuckles. I gasp sharply when he nips at my earlobe with his teeth. “My mistake,I’m sure.What else, Dahlia?”

I squeeze my eyes shut.

“What if I were to chase you, and catch you…” My breath becomes ragged when his hand slides up between my legs. It slips underneath my skirt, and I whimper quietly when he cups my slick pussy through my panties. “Andfuck youlike an animal in heat, heedless of your pleasure or consent?”

Oh my sweet fucking God.

The man is ripping into the most private places of my mind, yanking out my darkest, most fucked up and deviant fantasies, and putting them on display for all the world to see.

“Please,” he growls into my ear. “Lie to me. Tell me the idea of mecatching you, stuffing your mouth full of your soaking wet panties, and then fucking you bare and raw without mercy doesn’t turn you the fuck on and transform this greedy little cunt into a puddle.Lie to me. Because I can feel your dripping little pussy soaking right through your panties.”

My eyes roll back in my head as his fingers start to twist my clit underneath the lace.

“And of course, I could always find you while you’re most vulnerable…while you’re asleep, Dahlia. And you could wake up with my cock ploughing your deliciously tight pussy, or with my balls emptying my cum deep down your pretty little throat.”
