Page 103 of Pretty Thing

“God, I don’t want to ask this. It’s so unromantic, but…”

“Am I clean?” I nod. “Yeah. I was always safe when I was active, and I’ve been tested.” He brushes his lips over mine. “I would never put you in danger like that, Eden. I swear I’ll always protect you, fight for you, and I’d even kill for you.”

I lick my lips and can’t help thinking about the man at the diner.

“That’s why I did what I did yesterday. Men like that don’t stop at making comments,” he says, like he’s once more able to read my mind.

“So, you did hurt that guy?”

Felix’s eyes darken. “I taught him a lesson in manners. He’ll live. I didn’t kill him. But Eden…no one, and I mean no one, talks to you like that.”

“I thought I’d be scared to hear you confirm it out loud.”

“And are you?”

There is a crackling tension in the air, but not in a bad way. It’s so easy to drown in his eyes. The sincerity and earnestness shining from their crystal depths fog my mind until I don’t know right from wrong.

“No,” I finally admit. “I’m not. That probably should concern me more than it does.”

With a sly smile, Felix leans on one arm while the other slips between our bodies. I suck in a shaky breath as he teases me. His finger pushes inside, and I moan as my eyes flutter closed.

“Are you sure you want to do this?”

I love how his voice drops and sounds rough when he’s aroused.

Opening my eyes, I watch him closely.

“Yes…do you?”

“More than you will ever know,” Felix answers, and I push my hips into his hand, forcing his finger deeper.

“I want you,” I say, feeling more in control of my life than I have in a long time.

He pulls his finger out and sucks it into his mouth.

“You’re addictive,” he growls, and if I wasn’t already melting, I am now.

“This will hurt at first, so I’ll go slow.”

“Okay,” I whisper as he rubs the head of his cock up and down my pussy, driving me insane.

I gasp when he pushes the tip inside, and then again when the bars of his piercing rub against me. I have no comparison, but the ribbed friction from each added inch is like nothing I can explain.

He stops and locks eyes with me. My breath is frozen in my lungs as my body adjusts to his size.

“You’re so fucking tight,” Felix groans. “Feels incredible.”

His lips drop to mine, and the kiss starts soft and sensual but quickly turns hungry. I wrap my arm around his neck as my pussy begins to throb for more.

Suddenly, he thrusts forward, and I feel like I’ve been stabbed. I scream, but it’s muffled by Felix’s kiss. My nails dig into his shoulders, and I whimper. I’m breathing hard and don’t dare move. Felix nips at my lip, and I open my eyes.

“It’s okay,” he whispers. “The worst is over. You’re incredible.” He brushes his lips against mine. “Relax, Pretty Thing, I’ve got you.”

Felix grazes his teeth down my neck and growls. I loosen my death grip on his shoulders, melting while he praises me.

“Fuck you smell good. You always do, and it drives me wild,” he says before nipping my ear.

The pain fades, but I still feel incredibly full.
