That didn’t mean I couldn’t do things to him.

“I have an idea,” I said. “But it…we would switch positions and control. If that’s something you want to try.”

He let out a soft hum. “I should be taking care of you.”

“You do take care of me,” I said, slipping my hand into his. I gave him a gentle squeeze and smiled. “Raider, you take care of me in a way no one ever has. Let me help you. We have a big day tomorrow. So let me help you with this heat.”

A growl rumbled in his throat. “I don’t want you to if you’re too tired or thirsty or…”

I snorted and leaned over, reaching for the water I had on the nightstand. To make a point, I drank most of it, holding his gaze.

He narrowed all eyes on me. “You’re a stubborn gal. You know that?”

“I am,” I said. “Now, get comfortable. It’s time the giver receives.”

“I don’t know, Mari…”

I reached down and just touched his cock, only barely. He immediately moaned, his back arching.

A very devious side of me liked that.

“How about this? Since you’re such a dominant individual. Think of this as me taking you as a form of submission. I’m doing this for you, as an act of service. I’m serving you and your body. And loving you,” I said.

“I’d planned to use the ball-gag and paddle on you…”

“We can always do that later,” I said, smirking.

He stared for a moment and then nodded. “Serve me, then, sugar. I don’t know how we’ll break this heat.”

“You know I like a challenge.”

CHAPTER18

Heat

Raider

Mari nudged me to the center of the bed. My entire body felt like it was on fire. The moment that I had come inside her, it was as if a wildfire had started within me. I wasn’t sure exactly what set it off, except seeing her come over and over again, had certainly put me in a different headspace.

There hadn’t been any doubt before, but I knew now 100% that she was mine. She was my mate. There was no other way that I would have this reaction.

In fact, I had thought that it was a myth.

I wasn’t sure how long the heat might last. I could only hope we could break it now.

I should have known earlier when I started feeling hot…

The moment we’d said we loved each other seemed to be the catalyst.

And oh how I loved her. All I could think about was spending every day showing her that she was loved and cherished. I wanted to give her everything I could in the world.

Need rushed through me. I groaned, breathing her in.

“Mari,” I whispered.

She looked like a goddess. Her skin was flushed, her hair slicked back. I could still see the rope marks on her skin, decorating her body.

The scent of her filled the room, making my cocks throb.
