Her forehead hit the window as her limbs shook with the need to collapse. But his coercion kept her upright. It created an intoxicating mix of irritation, confusion, and bliss—all emotions she had no business experiencing.

But his tongue circled her in a way that overruled reason.

“I don’t… This is…” Her breath faltered as waves of foreign warmth lavished her from head to toe. “A-acceptable.”

If he responded, she didn’t hear it over the beat of her heart. It reminded her of a drum, sounding rhythmically in her ears as she struggled to stand upright. Each flick of his tongue ricocheted violent shocks to her limbs.

Her nails clawed the glass in an attempt to fist her hands, but she couldn’t obey that simple request. Sethios had forbidden her from moving, something her body remembered even while her brain faltered.

His thumb dipped into her sex as his opposite hand caressed her thigh. She had no idea where he put her knife; she would worry about it later.

Give in, a dark part of her begged. Feel.

No. Her logical voice was weak at best. Don’t give him the satisfaction.

It’s a learning experience. Embrace it.

Oh, Sethios.

Her knees trembled as the remaining vestiges of her sanity shattered under his assault. Flames overwhelmed every inch of her, engulfing her in an inferno of lust. She recognized the signs, had researched them, but never thought to allow them.

Why have I lived without this? her spirit whispered. Such a waste of life.

His thumb left, replaced by two fingers as he thrust deep into her channel, hitting her in a place she didn’t know existed. Her core clenched and unfurled as a climax took her over the precipice into sensation. She never expected it to feel… so… hot.

Intense.

Frozen in time.

Can’t feel my legs.

Too much, oh it’s just too much.

Caro shuddered, overwhelmed by it all and unable to process. And the sound escaping her mouth—she didn’t know her lungs allowed that.

Somehow she remained standing through it all, just as he demanded, but it almost hurt to comply. Her legs begged to fold, her hands sweating from the effort, and her head swimming in a sea of forbidden emotion.

Sethios laved her deeply before leaving the apex between her thighs, his chuckle vibrating her deep within. “Oh, angel, you do not disappoint.”

Sethios ran his palms over Caro’s firm ass and up her shaking spine. The gorgeous blush tinting her pale skin pleased him immensely.

“You enjoyed that,” he murmured as he placed a kiss against the back of her neck. “Now it’s my turn.” He threaded his fingers in her blonde hair and yanked her head back. “Drop to your knees and remove my pants.”

No sense in wasting time. They had seven hours together, and he intended to use every minute. Once he took the edge off, they could begin properly.

Caro nearly fell under his command. Her nimble fingers found his belt as her drowsy gaze narrowed up at him. Oh, he approved of that look. It would be so much fun to fuck her mouth while she glowered up at him with that defiant gleam in her beautiful eyes.
