"Say you're mine." She tensed, defiant. "No." My cock throbbed at her fire. I pressed just the tip inside, then pulled back. "Then you don't get this." She squirmed, frustrated, wet, needy. "You're an asshole." "I'm honest." I rocked against her clit, teasing. "You came to my bed. Let me inside you. Chose this. Now say it-because it's true." Silence. Trembling. Her pride cracking. Then, a broken whisper: "Yours. God, I'm yours.Happy,now?" Triumph surged.

The sound of my voice will be the only thing you hear in your dreams. You will crave me. You will beg for me." My breath hitched, my entire body frozen in a state of horrified paralysis. He leaned in, his lips brushing against the shell of my ear, the contact sending a bolt of pure, unadulterated electricity through me. "And the best part?" he breathed, his voice a silken, venomous promise. "You're going to love every second of it." He pulled back, his eyes blazing with a triumphant, predatory fire.

"Hello, sweetheart." My pulse jumps wildly under his thumb as the entire hall falls silent. "Get off-" "No." His lips brush my ear, sending a shiver down my spine I refuse to acknowledge. His fingers close around the silver necklace at my throat. "You don't know me, do you?" "I've never seen you-" Something dark flashes in his eyes.
