So, when he saw Amara on the Academy's website, he knew he wanted her for far more than service or companionship. ~~~ Dorian kissed her shoulder as his fingers worked her core. She was dripping for him and it was taking all of his will power not to slam balls deep inside of her.

"I'm going to be gentle this time and the next time." He told her kissing her lips again. "But after that I'm going to fuck you like I own every inch of you." He growled out.
