That makes his gaze snap back to my face.
 
 “Amity, what do you mean… Do I like you?”
 
 “It’s a simple question.”
 
 I tease myself with his cock, guiding it to my entrance, pushing it in only slightly. There’s a fire in my belly that burns bright, consuming me. It all feels so sinful, yet it’s right. I know it is. This man bought me, I am his, and this is exactly what’s supposed to happen – our union. It doesn’t matter that he’s a revenant and I’m human. It doesn’t matter he’s basically immortal, and I…
 
 “I don’t like you, Amity. I love you.”
 
 That takes my breath away.
 
 “You barely know me,” I whisper.
 
 “You’re everything I’ve ever wanted. I’ve been waiting for you, dreaming about you, yearning for you all my life. I’m glad I…” He pauses, and it feels like we’re frozen in time. I don’t know how long it lasts. A few seconds, a minute, maybe more? He lets out a breath. “I’m glad I didn’t do anything stupid. I’m glad I didn’t lose hope. Now you’re here, and I just can’t believe…” He sobs. “I can’t believe…”
 
 “Shh…” I pull him against me and inside me. “Shh…”
 
 He buries his face in my neck as he pushes his cock into my body, stretching my pussy to its limit. He’s big, long, thick… He’s exactly what I need. He thrusts gently until he’s perfectly sheathed, and we stay like that for a moment. We savor it until it becomes too much, and we both need release.
 
 What comes next is fast, hard, unhinged…
 
 He’s feral, he’s…
 
 I close my eyes and lose myself in him.
 
 Chapter Ten
 
 Riven
 
 Soft everywhere. So delicate that I could easily break her. At the back of my mind, a thought repeats like a mantra:“Must be careful.”My body barely obeys.
 
 I’m inside her, so deep that I can feel the firm shape of her cervix. Every time I thrust, she arches her back, lets out a moan, and it’s like her pussy opens for me even more, sucking me in. She is like a flower in my hands, so fragrant and beautiful, except for her sharp fingernails when she digs them into the flesh of my arms, my shoulders, my back as she clings to me. I love the pain she inflicts on me. I love how through it, she shows me how much pleasure I give her.
 
 What’s happening is surreal.
 
 The pressure builds, the fire in me burns so bright that I feel like I’m about to explode. I want all of her. It’s like no matter how hard I fuck her, it’s not enough. I grab onto her, moving my hands up and down her body, squeezing, kneading, holding onto her round, heavy breasts for a second before I move to her hips, my fingers digging into her soft curves until they leave red marks. I grab her thighs and push her knees to her chest, angling her in such a way that I can thrust into her faster, harder, better.
 
 I don’t know what I’m doing. My instincts take over, and I must be doing something right, because she’s practically screaming, not clawing at me anymore, but at the sheets. The bed is a mess, her hair is a mess, her face is contorted, and her body shakes under mine.
 
 “Yes… Yes, Riven… So close… Close…”
 
 I can barely hear her, barely understand her. I’m lost in all the things I’m feeling. In my body and in my soul.
 
 To possess someone so fully… I can’t believe Amity let me. A woman – a gorgeous, amazing woman – is letting me touchher, kiss her, grope her, fuck her. I’ll never recover from this. I’ll want to ravish her every minute of every day. I can’t believe I’ve waited so many years to feel… this. To feel alive.
 
 She slips up the bed, and I grab her from behind the knees and flip her onto her stomach. Again, I’ve no idea what I’m doing. Something primal has taken over, and even if I wanted to stop, I couldn’t. Maybe it’s the parts I’m made of that remember how it is to be with a woman. Maybe it’s this cock that I got from a pirate who got the death sentence. At least that was what Franklin told me when I asked who I was made of. He made me a list of where he got each body part, and I kept it. It’s tucked in an old journal in my workshop.
 
 So, yes. Maybe it’s the pirate’s cock. But that’s stupid. Oh gods, it sounds so dumb. It’s me. It’s all me. I’m doing this to Amity.
 
 She lifts her hips, and I penetrate her again, deeper than before. She cries out and pulls the sheets to her, burying her face in them to muffle the sounds she’s making. At this point, I’m not even sure whether I’m still making her feel good or she’s in pain, but she doesn’t ask me to stop, so I slam into her again and again.
 
 When she said she was close… I think I know what she meant. I feel like I want to pour myself inside her, all of me. I know how human bodies work, but it’s more than filling her with my cum. I want to fill her with my very being.
 
 She arches her back, pushing her hips into me, and lets out a loud, moaning scream. Her body shudders, and her pussy throbs and squeezes me hard. I know she is coming. It’s like the orgasm transforms her, and she doesn’t sound human anymore, she sounds like a beast in heat. When I think it’s over, she comes again, and that’s when I fall over the edge, too.
 
 My cum shoots out of me with force I didn’t think possible. I push the head of my cock against her cervix and keep it there,closing my eyes and envisioning my seed pouring right into her womb. It’s so intense that my heart aches. For once, I’m not soiling a napkin with my essence and feeling numb after an unsatisfying but necessary release. My release inside Amity gives me energy, it doesn’t take it away. For the first time, I think I can say I feel like a man. Not pathetic anymore. A man with a woman who wants him.
 
 Amity collapses onto the bed, and I fall with her, not wanting to pull out yet. She turns on her side, and I hug her from behind, hiding my face in her long, sweaty hair. We’re both covered in sweat that’s starting to cool off. I know we can’t stay like this forever. She’ll want to cover herself with something or take a bath, but until she starts complaining, I will cherish every second of this incredible aftermath. No matter what happens next, no matter where our destiny takes us, our first time will be my most sacred memory.
