“I put these rules in place to protect you, Cadence, and what do you do? You throw it back in my face and force me to abandon my post to come and find you.”

Drool spilled down my chin, and I could feel my cheeks growing hot as my lungs screamed out for air. I tried to pull away from him, but Ryker only tightened his grip.

“You breathe when I say you can breathe,” he spat as he slammed his hips forward once more.

When Ryker pulled out, I greedily sucked air into my starving lungs. Once my breathing had evened out, I glared up at him.

“Oh, you thinkyou’reangry,” he growled, the sound deep and terrifying.

Ryker gripped the base of his cock and stroked his length up and down with rough, furious movements.

“What do you suppose would have happened to you if one of the other men from court had found you, hmm?”

I knew exactly what was going to happen. In fact, I’d been counting on it. I had planned to show Ryker that I wouldn’t simply warm his bed while he sought gratification elsewhere. Now, though, as I stared into his murderous gaze, I had to admit it had been reckless, if not dangerous.

“Or what if Celeste had revealed that you are Seelie to any of the men taking part tonight?”

Ryker’s movements became jerky, and I was distracted by the way the vein on the underside of his cock throbbed, that it took a second for his words to sink in.

My head snapped up, and I locked my gaze with Ryker’s. His upper lip was curled, and he was pumping his shaft with a brutality that almost had me wincing.

I let his earlier remark wash over me. If Celeste had told anyone about me, then coming out here alone and unprotected had been more than foolish.

It was suicidal.

Suddenly, I understood Ryker’s rage, and it must have shown on my face.

“Now you understand, Temptress,” he said roughly. “No one, not even the gods, gets to take you away from me.”

Ryker’s gaze never left mine as hot ropes of his come hit my chest and face. He continued to pump his cock furiously, draining every last drop of his orgasm.

Breathing heavily, Ryker leaned down and smeared his come all over me. The intensity with which he worked made it appear as though he was an artist and I was his masterpiece.

Satisfied, his eyes returned to mine.

“Tell me, Temptress. How wet are you for me right now?”

Without waiting for a response, Ryker slipped his hand between my thighs and gathered the evidence of my arousal. He raised his glistening fingers to his lips and sucked them clean.

Then he invaded my space, his mouth brushing against my ear as he whispered, “Now the real fun can begin.”

Chapter Forty-One

Ryker

I had promised Cadence I would take care of her, so forcing her to choke on my cock in a moment of fury probably wasn’t the best idea in the circumstances.

Then again, seeing how much she enjoyed it made me think she wouldn’t hold it against me. My mate wanted to submit to me; her mind just couldn’t rationalize her body’s desires.

According to Malesh, she was a well-respected healer in her village, and many people relied on her for help. Perhaps the thought of giving up all of that responsibility and letting someone else take control for her,of her, was an attractive one.

And I had many plans for how that could play out.

I rose to my feet, drawing a startled gasp from Cadence at the abrupt motion. Kicking my boots free, I ripped my trousers down my legs and wrapped my fingers around the base of my cock as I stroked leisurely. Already eager for another round, it stood to attention, a drop of pre-come glistening from the tip.

Cadence watched my every move as though I were a viper ready to strike. A sinful smirk curled my lip at the thought. My Temptress sensed the predator lurking just beneath my skin, and she was right to be wary.

I fisted her hair in my hand and dragged her to her feet. She grunted at my rough handling, but she didn’t cry out or ask me to release her.
