Panting tiny breaths, she shivered from his words. Was that the reason why Kade kept him locked away?

Circling his hips, Demetri felt the unmistakable pressure of his pent-up frustration building within his core. With each wanton press, his heart pumped faster and faster. Making it harder for him to keep his demons under control.

“I saw you first, Lexi...I wanted...wanted you to bemine,”he confessed. “But I gave you away...tohim.”

Listening as he spilled his heart, her eyes blew open wide.What did he say?She didn’t understand what he meant by that.

“Why…did you give me…to Kade?” she asked, swallowing a moan as his cock tickled against her hidden crevice.

Spitting a curse, his adrenaline spiked through his veins, the pleasurable sensation leaving him dizzy and wanting more. Grinding against her ass, he couldn’t help but smile at the carnal sound of their bodies slapping against one another.

“You...you were different...than the others,” he disclosed. “You had a purpose...you...were special...useful.”

Turning her head, a chill raced down her spine as her mind processed what was being said. In an instant, she was transported back to the bunker where Kade had kept her captive. Back to the moment when she had found the necklaces.

“The others,”she whispered.

Not seeming to hear her, Demetri focused on the burning need of his body. Curling his lips into a sneer, he pulled his hand from her breast and placed it on her swollen belly. Spurred on by the intensity of his impending orgasm, he found himself spiraling out of control.

“But look at whathedid to you,” he growled. “She...should bemine.”

Furrowing her brow, Lexi slapped her free hand on the mattress to snap herself back to reality. There were too many conflicting emotions happening at once. Her mind was telling her to protect herself, to protect her baby. Her body, however, was betraying her, encouraging her to stay the course.

Letting out an animalistic groan, he dragged his hand from her stomach towards her throat. He was too far gone to realize what was really at play. “But she still can be,” his mouth pressing against her ear. “And you...you can be mine forever, too.”

Shaking her head, she gasped in surprise as he gently wrapped his fingers around her throat. Was he trying to hurt her? Or was this like the night at the cabin with Kade? She couldn’t quite read his intentions. Her body was too overrun with bliss.

Licking her earlobe, he dug his fingers into her neck. He could sense his body ramping up, preparing to snap in half. Would it be such a bad thing if he stole her away from Kade? To keep her with him for all of eternity? Judging by the way her body so enthusiastically responded to his, he didn’t think so.

She wanted this, too.He knew it.

“Give in, Lexi...come with me,” he purred.

Writhing in his arms, Lexi tried to suck in much needed air. Dark spots dotted her vision, her body shaking in a mixture of ecstasy and panic. She was on the brink; it would be so easy to surrender. Why was she fighting it?

Thrusting into her perfect cunt, he wrapped his free arm around her body to stop her from wiggling out of his grasp. Squeezing around her airway, he felt the sharp prick of his release pushing him closer to the edge. He wouldn’t be able to hold himself together for much longer.

“Give...in,”he ordered once again. “Be with meforever.”

Thrashing against his embrace, she latched onto the wrist threatening to extinguish the light behind her eyes. Trying with all her might to pull his hand from her throat, she cried out in vain. This was much more than rough sex, she finally realized.He wanted her to join the others.

Knowing she was slipping away, she used the last bit of her energy to claw at his wrist and arm. As the seconds passed, her body weakened under the suffocating pressure around her throat. As hard as she tried, she couldn’t maintain the fight.

Sensing that she was close, Demetri prepared himself for the wave of intense pleasure he was about to receive. Breathingheavily, he opened his mouth to offer her the last bit of comfort she would ever hear.

Kicking her exhausted legs, she heard his voice but couldn’t understand his words. A sense of overwhelming euphoria filled her limbs as her blood pressure plummeted. Hovering on the brink, she resigned herself to her fate. Karma had finally come to claim her, and she was done fighting.

Just as she relinquished control, she felt his body stiffen. Almost immediately, his hand released its death grip on her throat and his arm loosened around her. Freed from his dark embrace, she pushed his limp hand away. Coughing and gasping, she took in much needed air. Dragging her body from his, she was stopped by his arms wrapping around her once more.

“NO! Get off me!” she screamed, her voice raspy and broken.

“Lexi, stop! Lexi! It’s me!Don’t fight!”

Stilling her jerking body, she blinked in disbelief. Turning in his arms, she eyed his concerned face critically. The differences were minute, but there. Had she not experienced a switch firsthand, she wouldn’t have noticed them.

“Kade?” she asked wearily, her bloodshot eyes welling with tears.

Lifting his hands to her red face, Kade searched for any signs of acute harm. He was livid at himself for letting Demetri manipulate him, the fucker almost killed her. What the hell was he thinking letting him take control?
