“I’m close.”

“And a glutton for punishment. You keep moving down when we both know I’m about to pound your pussy through this fucking bed. Are you sure this is what you want? You could barely sit last time.”

“I can take it. I need it.”

The last had me nodding. Kody’s pain threshold had increased over time. I half expected it after everything she’d gone through. She pulled to this side of life. Depended on it, like me. It was therapy, in a sense, and I wasn’t about to deny what she needed. I had gone easy with the cat. I could make up for it here.

“Tell me you love me again.”

I lowered, watching the smile tug back the corners of her mouth. I eased the head of my cock into her, holding still as I waited.

“I love you.”

Inching in, I let her adjust, stopping as I buried myself.

“Again.”

I withdrew almost all the way, waiting.

“I love you.”

The breathy whisper sent me slamming forward.

“Louder.”

“I love you.”

“Don’t stop.”

“I love you.”

Those three words were Kody’s currency. They were the dealer to her demands, the wish for her every want, and the dominant to her darkest desires. Those words were the key to unlock my monster or calm him completely. Right now, all he wanted was to claim her in the most possessive way there was, and there was no way in hell I was holding him back.

“God, I fucking love you too. Do you have any idea what you do to me?”

I pounded into her damn-near mercilessly. Her lips parted to answer, but my hand covered her mouth as I held firm, slamming and grinding my cock into her. Anything to make her see. To make her feel the overwhelming emotion she sparked inside of me. Disappearing into work was easy. Looking and taking down these men…it kept the suffocation away. I couldn’t run from my feelings when I wasn’t distracted, and neither could she. Kody was getting all of that with me. Stopping the intensity was impossible. Ignoring or sidetracking it was only a delay—a building of the inevitable.

“Jase. Say yes. J-Jase.”

Lowering, I slowed, nuzzling along her neck until I hovered just over her ear.

“Please. Oh, God. Jase. God!”

“Come.”

And she did. Screams filled the room as spasms had her tightening around me. I kept my thrusts slow, adding pressure over her clit with each grind of my hips. Only when she started coming down did I let myself go completely. I went back to fucking her hard, losing myself in her moans. In her wetness, and the way she fit to me perfectly. I surrendered a part of me I didn’t even know I had left as she cried out my name. We were both lost to each other, maybe even to the world as my cum shot deep inside of her.

Words. Whispers. Work. It all spun in my mind as I cleaned us up and snuggled her close. Despite feeling as if I had everything I could have wanted, something was off. There was something missing. Sleep beckoned, but my mind raced.

Light snores lured me into the shadows of my mind. I was taken to the days I was a prisoner of war. Back when cutting me open wasn’t punishment enough for my sins. Not to me anyway. Those days traveling from cave to dark cave, I’d longed for death. Not before my men, but if I could have gotten the remaining ones free…I had been prepared to pay the price for the ones I couldn’t save.

“Holy shit, man, you’re back. Are you okay? They had you a long time. I must have dozed off. Colter? Jase?”

“I’m fine, Rian. Go back to sleep.”

My voice sounded strangled and raw as I squeezed my eyes shut through the pain.

“I can’t. Someone has to say it. We’re all thinking it. This isn’t your fault. It was supposed to be a shortcut, Colter, you didn’t know they’d be waiting for us. Jase, can you turn over and look at me. Where are your clothes?”
