Butterflies erupted in my stomach.

He was beautiful.

Toned. Strong. Every muscle was defined, and every inch of him radiated dominance and control.

Heat flooded my core.

His fingers traced my waist before gripping my shirt and ripping it clean in half.

I gasped.

Pulling back, he tossed the ruined fabric aside as his eyes devoured me.

“Fucking perfect,” he breathed, his voice thick with hunger.

His mouth trailed kisses down my stomach before moving back up to unhook my bra with ease.

My fingers buried in his hair ashis tongue flicked teasingly over my hard nipple.

A desperate sound left my lips, but Zane wasn’t satisfied.

He sucked harder, his teeth grazing over the sensitive peak.

The room blurred, and my body melted.

His fingers dipped lower, undoing my jeans and sliding them off my legs with ease.

His breath caught, and his pupils dilated.

“Look at you, so fucking beautiful.”

He bit the side of my lingerie, dragging it down with his teeth in a deliberate motion.

A shudder wracked my body as his lips touched my burning skin.A hand gripped my ankle, moving it to his shoulder.

His other hand wrapped around my throat, tilting my head upward to meet his lips.

The kisses were rough and messy, distracting me from feeling any shame for being completely naked.

His warm palm moved from my ankle to between my legs. It began as a teasing stroke, a slow torturous rub against my clit that tore a sharp gasp from my throat.

Every time he kissed me, his fingers moved, coaxing pleasure from my body with agonizing precision.

I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think at all. I could only feel.

My mind went blank as a finger slipped inside me. Pain, pressure, and heat.My body arched unconsciously, and tears pricked my eyes.

Zane added another finger, stretching me. His movements were slow but deliberate, and his jaw was tight as he scrutinized my face.

“Amelia.” He licked a tear away and kissed the tip of my nose. “You’re mine.”

I whimpered as his fingers pumped into me, rough and relentless.

I surrendered. Completely.

A strange sensation coiled in my stomach. I wanted to sob. I wanted to shatter.

Zane watched me intently, his cock pressing hard against my thigh.“I need you.”
