I sucked in a deep breath.

It wasn’t really a scar, but a brand: the letters E.A., with an open-winged bird, were burned into her skin right where her hip would curve over to her rounded ass cheek. Jesus, someone fucking burned her!

“Ezra Alistair. The man who bought me from my family. He did that when I was sixteen.” My gaze flew up to her face that was looking out the window, instead of at me.

“Why did he brand you?” I was shocked that someone could do that to her, because I honestly doubt that she wanted it. She didn’t even have any tattoos or anything marring her skin besides this.

“The night after he took my virginity, he branded me as his property.” Her voice was confident, like she didn’t have any issues with what was done, but I saw the way she stared at that window like she wasn’t even seeing it. She was seeing the memory like she was still living it.

Fuck that.

My fingers caressed the skin lightly then moved over the rest of her body. Feeling her, showing her how sexy she was to me.

She didn’t stop my advance, but her head moved back to a neutral position so she could see me. It was time I helped her forget her painful memories for a change.

“You know my favorite thing about you, Lilith?” I asked as I put my mouth to her stomach and began kissing downward. The scent of her was driving me wild with need, but I was determined to be patient and make her see and feel nothing but me.

“What?” She wasn’t as turned on as before, but I would change that soon.

“I love your big fucking smile—the way you light up over every damn thing.”

Her whole body melted after that.

Keeping her legs where they were, I pressed a kiss to her mound and then slowly slid my tongue into her slit.

She tensed, and a small whimper bubbled out of her. Good.

I kept teasing her like that before opening her legs for me to slide between them, giving me the perfect view of her cunt.

Seeing her before me had done something to that control I had. I lunged for her like she was my favorite meal, licking slow, then fast, and faster.

Her back bowed off the bed, pushing those tits toward the ceiling. I love that sight.

One finger joined my tongue in the pursuit to keep her back off the mattress like that so I could stare at her pierced breasts while making her come on my mouth.

It wasn’t long. In fact, I’ve never known a woman could come so fast, but she was like a live wire.  She whimpered and writhed beneath my touch, and I couldn’t do anything but keep lapping at her and watching as her body was wrecked with the pleasure of it.

She had barely come down from her orgasm when she was reaching for my face.

Then my communicator went off.

Come on, man!

I reached over for it just as a beeping sound sounded inside Lilith’s jeans.

Seahill Elementary was on fire, with kids inside. Everyone was needed.
