“Gods, yes!”

“Not yet.” Viciously, he pulled free of him, laughing when Rue screamed in frustration. Then he yanked him off the table and threw him onto the ground, grabbing Rue beneath both knees and folding them up practically to his ears. Ryker’s cock reentered without any more warning than that, easily picking up the same brutal pace from before.

He fucked him hard enough to leave bruises, contorted Rue’s body to his liking without asking, teeth flashing as he grinned down at him, looking more satisfied than Rue had ever seen him before.

Rue’s neglected dick bobbed between them, slapping against his stomach with each mind-bending thrust, splattering droplets of precome everywhere. For the first time, he recalled he wasn’t naked.

“My clothes!” Rue reached to pull it out of the way, worried about it getting noticeably dirty, but Ryker beat him to it.

The Black Hart let go of one leg to shove the material up, bunching it beneath Rue’s chin. His mouth instantly found Rue’s left nipple, sucking and licking at it until he had him writhing and leaking even more. When he clamped down around it and tugged, Rue saw stars.

“It’s going to be like this from now on,” Ryker darkly promised. “Whenever I want you, you’re going to spread these delectable thighs and take me. Isn’t that right? Say it.”

“Yes!” He’d agree to anything so long as he was allowed to come.

“You aren’t running from me ever again, and if you do,” Ryker’s look was deadly, “I’ll hunt you down and fuck you until you can’t walk. Is that understood?”

“Yes! Yes!” He sobbed. “Ryk, please! I can’t take any more!”

“You’ve got a little left to give.”

“No, no, no!” Tears ran down his face. “I need to come!”

“And I need you to understand.” Ryker captured him by the jaw and held him still until he’d pried his eyes open and met his heated gaze. “You’re mine, Rue. You’ve always been mine. You’ll always be mine. No more running.”

He hiccupped. “No more running.”

The smile he gave him was disarming and thrilling all at once. “Good boy.”

Ryker grabbed onto his dick and started pumping in time with his thrusts.

It didn’t take long after that for the orgasm to crash over him. Rue tossed his head back and screamed until his throat went raw, colors flashing over his vision, muscles clenching and twitching.

The Black Hart shoved in so deep there was another flash of discomfort, but then he was reaching his own peak, emptying a hot load inside of Rue’s body that heated and filled him.

Rue clung to him all the while, pulling him in close and burying his face against the crook of Ryker’s neck. He cried through it, held on for dear life and let the tears flow freely, the impossible mix of overlapping emotions confusing his system.

It took a while before he realized the room had gone silent aside from their heavy breathing.

At some point, the creature had given up and left.

“I was going to take you into the foyer” Ryker told him softly, remaining still when Rue’s arms tightened around him, afraid he’d try to pull away now that they were finished. “I had the others go first so it’d be easier to maneuver. I never intended for us—”

“I know.” It’d been Rue’s choice. He was the one who’d come on to the Black Hart.

“Why’d you torture yourself like this?”

“To make a point.” He dropped his head finally, thudding against the hardwood floor, and met Ryker’s gaze. “To show whatever is out there that they can’t control me. Last night, you guessed that there’s a reason behind this, that someone is pulling strings to trick and trap us. If that’s the case, I wanted to shut down any future attempts at using my mother’s voice to try and get to me. If I hadn’t…”

“You’re more afraid you’ll be forced to hear it again,” Ryker surmised. “What if this didn’t work, and you gave yourself to me for nothing?”

“According to you, there was nothing left to give,” he reminded, pondering for a moment before blurting, “Is it true? It really was you that night?”

“Yeah, sweetheart.” Ryker kissed his forehead. “It was me.”

“So…Ryder…?”

“Is a lying asshole.” He sighed and made to sit up, ignoring Rue’s protests. “Forget about that for now. We’ve got more important issues at the moment.”
