“You taste the same. Like spun sugar. You could put a man in a diabetic coma.” Quick movements of my hand unbuttoned her coat, causing her nipples to harden in the chilly air. “You ever fuck in public, Princess?”

“Elis, what if someone sees?”

She shivered as I trailed kisses along her neck. My hands moved over her body, connecting with all the parts that made her moan. It was as if my brain had imprinted this girl there all those years, waiting for that moment.

“Then they’ll know not to touch what’s mine.”

“I’m not yours.”

“You can lie to yourself, Princess, but you’ll never be able to lie to me. Bet if I touch your pussy, my finger will be soaked with your lie.”

“You’re such an asshole.”

I smirked before undoing her pants and dipping my fingers into her panties. “I know that. Princess. Still doesn’t mean your pussy isn’t creaming for my touch. Tell me, Devlynn, what will you do to get my cock in your pretty cunt?’

She took a sharp inhale of breath, trying to pretend that the crass talk offended her. But the funny thing was, we both knew that the filthier my words, the hotter she got.

“Still pretending you wouldn’t be a slut for me, huh, Devlynn? Tell me what you would do to come.”

Chapter 10

Devlynn

I hated him, and I longed for him. Two dueling emotions that had festered in the depths of my soul. It was easy to ignore the void when he wasn’t in my orbit, but it seemed impossible now.

I despised how he made me feel. How I lost myself in his touch. How I’d do anything to have him in my orbit. But if I bent for him, I’d never forgive myself because I would’ve sold my self-respect.

“I’m not doing this with you, Elis.” I pushed at his chest, but he wouldn’t budge. He was a brick house, steady, unmoving, and impenetrable. “Get off me.”

He smirked, turning me around. My face hung over the park bench. I should’ve been frightened, but a small voice deep inside me kept saying, “this is Elis. You’re safe.”

But that little voice was the memory of the boy I loved and who loved me. This man wasn’t the same as the boy. He didn’t look at me like I was the sun rising after the dark night. In the depths of his dark eyes, I was the eclipse that turned his world black.

“What are you going to do, Elis? Rape me? Is that what would make it all better? To fuck me like a common whore? Show me who’s boss by breaking me? As you said, Elis, I’m already broken.”

I thought my words would shame him. Cause him remorse. Make him pause before he did something we’d both regret.
