This fanfic - the stories in each chapter are NOT my own work. I want to make it very clear that I am not claiming authorship; I'm just saving them here for myself, because I enjoy reading them all the time and thought it would be more practical to...

"I'll wrestle you to your fucking knees if you don't do it yourself." Cassian's ire slides up your spine like a blade straight from the forge, "So why don't you save us both the time and get down."
Your glare does nothing to deter the path of his lust-filled gaze, drinking in your revealing dress, the onyx ink adorning your bare skin from bargains made throughout your years, the sweep of coal around your eyes, covering only the most intimate parts of you.
Except for the one buried deep within your soul, your innermost feelings, he's attuned to. All because of that damned mating bond.
You cannot stand the male looking down at you. That spark in his eyes, the demands from those lips, curled into a cruel smile at the flare of anger he feels from you, all sharp teeth and drunk on lust. His stare is just as cutting, and you can hardly tell if he hates the silvery silk you're cloaked in, like moonlight dripping off your skin, or if the dislike is simply directed at your entire being.
Either way, you don't have time. The both of you are supposed to be joining the others in Rhysand's office for a final walkthrough of the plan before heading into the Hewn City for the night, one full of debauchery and putting on a show for the citizens that think you're nothing more than a crony for a single-minded High Lord.
But Cassian had caught you in the hallway and forced you back into your room, cock hard and demanding you get on your knees for him. It was a thing that you don't remember having started, as the both of you held a strong dislike towards each other for years, since Rhysand had brought you in to give a fresh stance on warfare. But lust had licked up your spine at his actions nonetheless. Damn that unaccepted bond purring in your chest, reacting to him in every way, betraying you to your core.
Rhysand didn't think that Cassian would react with such abhorrence to the presence of another well trained general, especially a female. It wasn't like he had brought you in to replace the warlord, although, from hearing some of his strategies, you thought you might've been brought in to do exactly that.
You size him up, as you always do, and his hazel eyes flicker at the challenge. Sparring with him always ended with both of you torn and bloody, neither of you willing to submit to the other. It carried on into the bedroom as well, fighting for control in the throes of lust, your unmated bonds thrumming in your chests, always reaching out for one another.
And yet neither of you had denied it, though the threat always lingered, both of you teetering on the edge of declining the other when irritated too much. But that itch was constant, never fulfilled, urging you to react.
You open your mouth to snap back at him, a nasty retort on the tip of your tongue, but he's quick – hundreds of years of Illyrian training under his belt had made him so. He grips your chin roughly, the bite of his fingers pressing into the hinge of your jaw makes your cunt clench, even as you glare up at him.
"Nuh-uh," he scolds, like he knows exactly what you had planned on spewing. The fucking smirk on his face tells you that the only thing you'll be spitting on is his cock, whenever he demands it. The steely, commanding look in his eyes makes a shiver crawl up your spine and your fists curl into the smooth fabric of your dress. "No talking."
