“How does it feel, Maya?” He raised his voice. A scream ripped through me as he used my hair as a weapon, forcing my head back so I had no choice but to hang further over the ledge. The only thing I could do was tighten my legs around him, making sure to hook my ankles together and press them against his back. Right now, that was my lifeline. “This is how you have me. I’m not just wrapped around your finger; I’m hanging off the ledge, and you decide whether I jump. Just like I can decide right now to save myself the trouble and throw you the fuck off this roof.”

He wouldn’t…would he?

“I’ll scream,” I panicked, my hands flying to my head, trying to untwist his fingers. A sob pushed its way through my throat as the tears pooled in my eyes. I shouldn’t have, but my eye met his penetrating gaze, and the darkened expression scared me. This was a man I didn’t recognize. This man’s eyes held a possessive, almost animalistic look.

“And what neighbors are going to hear you, Maya? Look around,” he grinned. “It’s just you and me now.”

As scary as this was, I was equally exhilarated, and he knew that, smirking as his head dipped low. This was it, twelve years of separation leading up to this moment, this kiss. My jawtrembled as I stared into his softening eyes. We can't mess this up, not this time. This wasn’t the parking garage; This was Maya and Riley.

A chuckle rumbled in his chest as he remained just over my lips, yet to touch them, teasing me. “Well, are you going to close the distance?”

He wanted me to take control of this, so that was exactly what I was going to do. I closed the distance with a fierce kiss, dominated by passion and regret for leaving him like this, so cold and empty all these years. But the feeling slowly faded as he suffocated every breath I took. I kissed Riley like I would never see him again. This kiss was two people who found each other again. A spark reignited. A dangerous one.

We pulled away, and he let out a shaky breath. “I never stopped loving you. I looked for you,” he whispered. “In everyone.”

His lips skimmed across my neck, nipping at the skin, and a soft moan left me, growing more desperate each time he bit down a little harder.

I relished in the pain he caused, and I could feel the wetness pooling between my legs as he sucked and licked at the sensitive flesh. “Cry for me, Freckles.”

More tears fell as I let go completely, forced to trust him with my life. His lips were hungry as they took mine, completely dominating me as his tongue slithered between my parted lips. Something buzzed within me, the sadness washing away and replaced by an insatiable hunger I never had. Finding a bit of my own dominance, I sucked his bottom lip between my teeth and bit down hard. Copper flew from his lip and into my mouth, and I only sucked harder with the growl that rumbled through his chest. Riley ripped his face from mine, moving his tongue to the base of my jawline, licking up my cheek to catch the tears.“I can taste your fear, Maya. It’s salty and fucking bitter.” He whispered against my skin.

This wasn’t Riley.

This was King in the flesh.

He was giving me what I asked for, and I could see the slight twinge of humanity in his features. Riley wanted permission to move forward, and call me bat shit crazy, but I gave it to him wholeheartedly. Even if he dropped me, in my heart, I knew he would jump right after to try and catch me.

Trusting him completely, my hands moved away from the railing to play with the hem of his shirt, making sure to trace every ridge of his skin as I removed the piece of fabric. He shivered against the cold and pulled me forward to rest more securely against the rail, rather than over it, but kept a firm grip on me as I pulled it off completely.

“Take off your pants, Maya,” he ordered.

Slowly, I hooked my thumbs in my waistband, pulling them over my ass, making sure to bend over and slide them down slowly as he watched. Once they were all the way off, I kicked them away, waiting for Riley’s next move. With a needy groan, he stepped toward me, his cold hand finding its way between my thighs and spreading them open.

“You’re so wet already, Maya, but I think you can do better,” Riley said as he dragged his finger painfully slow over my pussy. I moaned softly, the friction causing me to grind my hips into his hand, needing more than he was giving me.

Expertly placing pressure against my clit, he ordered me to hold on tight, and I gasped when my body fell backward again, being lifted in the air and set on the railing. I held steady, my pleading eyes watching as he worked his cock out of his pants, already hard and at attention, all for me.

At that moment, it was like the world had stopped, and all I could hear over the wind was our panting, nervous breaths. Itilted my head toward the sky as his thumb worked my clit in slow circles.

“I know you’ve been hurt. Time and time again, your choice ripped from you. You should have been in control.” His fierce whispers penetrated my chest, causing my heart to palpitate at his words. I wanted to push against him. I needed to feel Riley inside me. I knew it was safe with him. The whole time, his hand had kept a steady hold, planted where it belonged, supporting my body.

“Tonight, you’re getting that back. Are you ready for me, Maya?” Without giving me a chance to reply, he repositioned my hips against the ledge and slowly pushed his cock into me, stretching and filling me in a way I’d never felt before. Slowly, he dragged himself along my insides, waiting for me to give him a sign that he could pick up the pace.

“More…please.” With a long thrust, he buried himself inside of me, gripping tighter as our bodies collided. Every time his pelvis met my clit, a guttural moan ripped through me. This was something I’d wanted for so long, and he made sure I felt every hard inch of his cock as he increased his pace once more. Each time he brought forward a new wave of pleasure, and I was starting to get greedy.

Completely forgetting my body hung halfway off the balcony, my hips moved to meet his pace, each deep stroke rubbing along my walls as I clenched around him. I was utterly speechless, only able to manage to cry out against the night air. Earlier, I wanted to scream for help. Now, I wanted every single person in a twenty-mile radius to hear us.

His hand flew to the back of my neck, squeezing, and I looked at him with pleading eyes. “As much as I love to see you at my mercy, I need more freedom,” he grunted.

A growl of frustration left me as he withdrew, leaving me aching for more already, but he only laughed. “Oh, don’t worry,greedy girl, we aren’t done.” With a quick flip of my body, I found myself on the cold, hard ground, held up by my hands and knees. His other hand, now completely free, wrapped around my waist, and I cried out as a quick, harsh slap landed on my ass. “Far from it.”

I couldn’t help but jerk my body against him and ask for another. I welcomed the pain as the next slap came down on my throbbing ass cheek, harder this time. I needed him to take me again, so I pushed back, asking silently for more.

“Beg me,” Riley demanded. The head of his dick sat nestled between my lips, teasing and waiting for the moment he got his satisfaction, but I only faced the wall, smirking as he growled behind me. “Fuck this and fuck you for all the games you play.”

With a sinister chuckle, he thrust into me, immediately setting a punishing pace as I flattened my palms on the freezing shingles, trying my best to brace myself. Never missing a beat, he released my hair and grabbed my arms, pinning them behind my back, forcing my cheek to the flat rooftop. My eyes rolled at the repeated abuse. I wanted the pain that he inflicted every time his dick grazed against my cervix. Each punishing thrust stole my breath away, and I could feel my orgasm growing, heat spreading across my abdomen. This position, how deep Riley was fucking me, pushed me closer and closer, threatening to throw me off the very ledge he spoke about moments ago. I was going to jump and I wanted him to follow.

“Riley, harder, please,” I begged between ragged breaths. Tears fell down my cheeks at the carnal pleasure I felt. My pussy quivered each time I pushed back into his pelvis, and I was grateful he was letting me take what I wanted. Wetness dripped down my leg, warm against my cool skin.
