As soon as my arms are bound, he slowly peels down my underwear. I am fully naked in front of him while he is still dressed. It’s a form of vulnerability and degradation that makes warmth pool between my legs. I squeeze my thighs together and wait for the next orders.

“Bend over.”

He’s still sitting on the couch behind me so that when I bend, I am exposed and bared for him. I thought we would be doing it quickly, but I can tell he wants to take his time with me now. And normally I’d want that too, but right now I only have one thought on my mind.

“I need you inside me,” I groan as he glides his fingers along my sex.

“Oh yeah?” he moans, his lips against the skin of my backside. “You want me to fill you up?”

I let out a moan. “Yes.”

In the next moment, he twists me around and flips me over his shoulder. Then he carries me to the kitchen table, my arms still tied together helplessly behind my back. As he places me down, he bores his lust-filled stare on me as he unzips his pants and his cock springs free.

“You want my seed in you?” he breathes as he grips me by the back of the neck, pulling my face close to his.

“Yes,” I pant.

As he shoves himself inside of me, I squirm, loving the way I have to spread my knees even further to make room for him. “You want my baby growing in your belly?”

I don't so much as say yes as moan, “yes, yes, yes.”

Picking up speed, he watches my face as he builds up momentum. Everytime I lose my balance, unable to hold myself up with my hands, it turns me on even more. I’m helpless, and he has to hold me up—my rock, my everything. Without him, I could not survive, and he knows it. This isn’t just a game we play. It’s the life we live. He needs to be needed, and although I’ve known life without him, I never want to know it again.

And as we both come together, shaking in mutual climax, we both pretend that I’m not on the pill and that what he’s spilling into me would actually build a real future together.

For now, this is a fantasy.

But as he unties my hands and I collapse into his arms, I know we’re both thinking about a very real future, and absolutely nothing is holding us back.

Thank you

Thank you for reading Defiant. Some stories come together seamlessly and some you have to fight for. Ironically, this one came together so beautifully, and I left the fighting to the characters. This book rounds out the Wicked Hearts MC series, and I will miss Wicked Beach so much. I don’t know when I’ll be back or if I ever will, but I know it’s something special and where my journey began. You never forget your first love.
