With that smirk still on his face, he leaned down and stole a possessive kiss from my lips. “Good choice.”

A thrill raced down my spine as he grabbed my hands and moved them up over my head. After crossing my wrists, he locked one hand over both of them, holding my arms trapped like that. Then he drew back slightly. His gray eyes glinted like steel in the flickering light from the candle as he wrapped his other hand around my throat.

My heart did a backflip in my chest.

With his weight on me, and his hands locked around my wrists and throat, I was completely at his mercy. My core throbbed in response.Thiswas what I wanted my brain to remember. Being dominated becauseIchose it. By someone thatIhad chosen.

The mattress swayed underneath me as Levi shifted his position until his cock brushed against my entrance. A jolt shot through me. He teased his tip over my wet pussy over and over again until I was squirming underneath him.

“Please,” I pressed out, my heart slamming so hard against my ribs that he must have surely heard it. Bucking my hips, I tried to get his cock where I wanted it. “Levi…”

He thrust into me.

I gasped as his cock slid all the way in. But before I could draw in another breath, he pulled out and then slammed back into me again. Pleasure washed over me. A moan dripped from my lips as I yanked against Levi’s hold on my wrists, suddenly desperate to feel his skin underneath my palms.

He tightened his grip on both my wrists and my throat while continuing to shove his cock into me.

“My hands,” he said, his voice low and dark as he started up a fast pace that had my body jerking against the mattress. “Only evermyhands.”

“Yes,” I gasped out like a promise.

Pent-up release thrummed inside me as Levi fucked me hard enough to make the headboard slam against the wall. I sucked in desperate breaths while my pulse fluttered under his fingers. My heart pounded against my ribs.

I squirmed underneath him again as the tension inside me reached unbearable levels, but he kept me mercilessly pinned as he pushed me closer and closer to the edge of another orgasm.

Just when I thought I was going to die from the tension trapped inside me, Levi hit that perfect spot that made the world around me explode with white light.

Garbled moans rolled off my tongue as my inner walls fluttered and pleasure crackled through my limbs. This time, Levi kept fucking me through the orgasm. Prolonging it. Riding it with me. Until my trembling pussy drew that sweet release from him as well.

His fingers tightened around my wrists as he came, and his groan ripped through the air, swallowing my own moaning as our very souls seemed to vibrate with pleasure.

Both hope and fear surged up inside me.

We’d had this. Before. Before everything went to hell.

And as I looked up at Levi’s lethally handsome face and the unguarded emotions in his eyes, I couldn’t help but wonder where this left us now.

Chapter17

Iwas already dressed and ready to leave by the time Eve finally woke up. Tossing her the now dry pants and shirt that I had hastily washed yesterday, I snapped, “Get dressed. We’re leaving in five.”

She blinked at me, stunned for a few seconds, but caught her clothes before they could smack into her face. Then she glanced around the room.

Early morning sunlight trickled in through the window, and everything in the cottage had been put back to how it had looked when Gemma and I arrived.

A brief hint of confusion and uncertainty blew across Eve’s face as she slid her gaze back to me, but all she said was, “Okay.”

Thick silence descended on the room as I stood there waiting with my arms crossed while she put her clothes back on. Once she had laced up her boots as well, she straightened and cleared her throat.

“About last night…” she began.

“Last night was a mistake,” I cut her off before she could say anything else. “It meant nothing and it changes nothing. It was just meaningless stress release.”

She jerked back as if I had slapped her.

“Now, let’s go.”

Before she could answer, I spun on my heel and stalked out the door. Our horses were already saddled and waiting, so I swung myself up on mine and grabbed the reins.
