LOGINI reach for his belt, fingers clumsy with need, but Damien catches my wrists and pins them above my head with one hand. His eyes fix on mine, smoldering and commanding.
“Not yet,” he rasps. “You said every inch. Show me how bad you want it, Elena. Ride me.”
He releases me, shifts back, and sits against the headboard, legs stretched out. In one smooth motion he shoves his pants and boxers down. His cock springs free—thick, heavy, veined, the head already glistening. It’s even bigger than I imagined, curving slightly, easily nine inches and so wide my pussy clenches at the sight.
I crawl to him, thighs shaky. He grips my hips and pulls me over his lap so I’m straddling him, knees sinking into the mattress on either side. The blunt head of his cock nudges my soaked entrance, hot and insistent.
“Sit down,” he orders. “Let me feel how greedy this cunt is for me.”
I brace my hands on his broad shoulders and lower myself slowly. The thick head stretches me open, burning in the best way.
I rock my hips in tiny circles, trying to work him in.
“Fuck… you’re so big,” I whisper, breath hitching. I push down another inch, stroking the base of his shaft with my fingers to help guide him. My walls flutter around the invasion, slick sounds filling the room as I ease up and sink again.
Damien’s jaw clenches, hands digging into my ass. “That’s it. Slow like that. Tease me.”
I roll my hips in a lazy, seductive rhythm, taking a little more each time. My clit grinds against his pelvis when I bottom out halfway. I stay there, clenching around him, then rise until just the tip is inside before sliding back down. My tits brush his chest with every movement. I lean forward and bite his neck lightly, sucking a mark there.
He groans, deep and tortured. “You’re fucking killing me. Go faster, baby. Show me how much you need this dick.”
I try. I really do. I pick up the pace, bouncing a little harder, but he’s pressing into me so full it’s hard to go quick without it bordering on too much. Every downward glide makes me gasp.
“Mmm—ahh, Damien… feels so deep already.”
His fingers flex on my hips, breath coming in rough pants. “You’re torturing me on purpose. That slow grind—fuck, I’m not gonna last if you keep—shit.”
Suddenly his control snaps. He grips my waist hard, plants his feet, and thrusts up sharply, burying the rest of his length in one powerful stroke.
I cry out, nails digging into his shoulders. “Oh my god—Damien!”
He doesn’t give me time to adjust. He starts drilling up into me, fast and brutal, hips snapping like a machine. The wet slap of skin on skin is obscene. My pussy creams around him, juices coating his cock with every punishing thrust. Pleasure slams through me so hard my vision blurs.
“Take it,” he growls against my ear. “This is what you begged for. Every. Fucking. Inch.”
I can only moan brokenly, head falling back. “Yes—yes, like that—don’t stop—”
He fucks me harder, one hand sliding up to pinch my nipple, twisting just right. My thighs tremble around him. Another orgasm builds fast and vicious.
“I’m—fuck, I’m coming again—”
“Do it,” he demands, slamming into me, voice rough with control. “Milk my cock.”
I shatter, pussy spasming wildly around his thickness. A loud, shaky moan rips from my throat as I gush around him. He keeps thrusting through it, drawing it out until I’m whimpering.
Before I can catch my breath, he lifts me off him effortlessly and flips me around. “On your feet. Dresser. Now.”
My legs are jelly, but he steadies me, walking me to the large mirror above the dresser. He bends me over the wooden surface, scattering bottles of cologne and a watch with one sweep of his arm. They clatter to the floor. Cool wood presses against my stomach and tits as he kicks my legs wider.
“Look,” he orders, fisting my hair gently to lift my head. “Watch how incredible you look taking my dick.”
I try, but the second he lines up and slams back inside me, my eyes roll. The thrust is so deep it knocks the air from my lungs. “Ahh—fuck!”
He sets a relentless pace, hips slapping against my ass. In the mirror I catch flashes—my mouth open in a silent cry, tits swinging heavily with every brutal stroke, his powerful body behind me, muscles flexing, face dark with lust. My hair is wild, cheeks flushed crimson.
“See that?” he grunts, never slowing. “That’s my pussy. Look at how it stretches around me. So fucking pretty.”
I can barely focus. Every thrust hits that perfect spot inside, making my toes curl. My nipples drag against the wood, sending sparks straight to my clit. “Damien—too much—oh shit, I’m gonna—”
He reaches around and rubs my clit in tight circles. “Come again, baby. Let me feel it.”
I break hard, moaning his name like a prayer as my walls clamp down. He curses, pounding through my orgasm, the dresser creaking under us.
He pulls out suddenly, spins me around, and lifts me onto the dresser. Items scatter more. My back hits the mirror as he hooks my legs over his arms and drives back in, folding me nearly in half. This angle is impossibly deep. I claw at his back, leaving marks.
“Harder,” I beg, voice hoarse. “Fuck me harder, Damien.”
He obliges, hips snapping with raw power. Sweat slicks our skin. The mirror behind me vibrates with every thrust. I lean forward and suck on his tongue, messy and desperate. He groans into my mouth, one hand sliding down to grip my ass, spreading me wider.
“Such a filthy little thing,” he mutters between kisses. “Coming all over my cock again and again. You love being ruined, don’t you?”
“Yes—yours—only yours,” I pant.
He shifts us again, carrying me to the bed but not laying me down. Instead he stands at the edge, turns me so I’m facing away, and bends me over the mattress. He enters me from behind once more, slower this time, grinding deep and rolling his hips in circles that make me see stars.
I push back against him, chasing the friction on my clit. “Mmm—right there, keep doing that—feels so good…”
His hand snakes around to rub me while he fucks me in long, dragging strokes. The pressure builds again, slower but intense. I’m sobbing moans into the sheets now, body oversensitive and still greedy.
“Come with me,” he growls. “One more time.”
He speeds up, thumb working my clit perfectly. I clench around him, tipping over the edge with a sharp cry. He follows right after, burying himself to the hilt and pulsing hot and deep inside me. His groan is guttural, body shuddering against mine as he fills me.
We stay locked together, panting. He presses soft kisses along my spine, then pulls out carefully. I collapse on the bed, boneless and thoroughly fucked. My body hums, every inch sore and satisfied.
Damien climbs beside me and pulls me into his chest. He brushes damp hair from my face, then places a surprisingly gentle kiss on my forehead, lips lingering. His voice drops to that cold, possessive tone that sends a shiver through me.
“No going back, Elena. You’re a Blackwood now.”
Walking into the dim master bedroom of the old mansion, my heels click across the polished hardwood. The smell of stale air and medicine hits me like a freight train. The family warned me that Knox is stubborn, cruel even in his decline, and that he hasn't touched solid food in nearly three weeks. They're paying me triple my usual rate to keep him alive until they can sort out the inheritance mess.I don't ask questions.At thirty-eight, with breasts that haven't stopped leaking since I underwent an experimental hormone treatment, I need the money far more than I need morals.Knox lies propped amid a mountain of pillows in the massive four-poster bed, his once-powerful frame reduced to sharp bones wrapped in thin, papery skin. Seventy-five years old, with silver hair plastered to his scalp, he fixes those pale eyes on me the second I enter.“Another caregiver?” Knox rasps, voice dry as dust. “Here to torture an old bastard before he finally checks out?”“I’m Mia, and I’m here to make
The lock clicks into place.No one else is getting in.Lucien stands a short distance from the couch, his gaze tracking me as though he's afraid I'll vanish if he blinks. That look always does something dangerous to me.I cross the space between us.My fingers curl into the front of his shirt, pulling him close enough that our bodies almost touch."Why do you keep coming back to me?" I ask."The same reason you can't let go," he answers. "We both know how this ends, and we still can't help it."I don't give him time to say more. I pull him down, and our mouths meet.The kiss starts slowly. Carefully. Like we're both testing whether this is just another mistake we'll regret later.His hands come up to cradle my face, thumbs brushing over my cheeks.Then the kiss changes.It turns deeper. Hungrier.Tongues sliding. Breaths mingling. Teeth grazing lips.I press myself into him, needing the steady heat of his body, the undeniable proof that he's here. His hands settle on my waist as he gu
I walk into Chancellor Whitlock’s office without an appointment. Amy tries to stop me, her voice rising as she calls my name from the reception area, but I brush past her with a curt, “It’s urgent.”The interruption earns me a startled look from Whitlock, who glances up from a stack of documents spread across his desk.He is holding a fountain pen in one hand, reading glasses perched low on his nose.“Professor Hale,” he says, setting down the pen. “Is everything alright?”The concern in his voice almost makes me reconsider.Almost.It is not that he sounds insincere. It is worse than that. It is genuine concern wrapped in institutional control, the kind that comes with knowing every decision here carries consequences beyond the person standing in front of him.If I wait any longer, I might lose my nerve.I remain standing. Sitting would soften this into a discussion instead of what it needs to be.“I am ending the special support arrangement with Lucien Grayson. Effective immediately
Lynn recovers first. A small, satisfied smile tugs at her mouth, as if she’s been waiting for this exact moment.“Well, this is awkward. Catherine. Didn’t expect to see you here.”I ignore her completely and fix my gaze on Lucien instead. My voice comes out cutting, stripped of patience. “Explain this bullshit.”The studio suddenly feels tighter, like the walls have shifted closer while no one was looking. Lucien steps forward with his hands slightly raised, his face drained of color.“Catherine, it is not what it sounds like. Let me explain.”Letting out a soft laugh, Lynn leans back against the piano, her arms still crossed. She looks exactly as she used to when we spent nights at clubs, trading secrets over drinks and music that felt harmless. The same woman who listened as I broke down for months over Mark’s growing distance. The same woman who apparently decided I was something she could step over.“Oh, please,” she says lightly. “Let’s not pretend there is confusion here. Lucien
Standing at the front of the lecture hall, I move through the material with the steady assurance years of teaching have carved into muscle memory. The notes on the projector advance behind me in sequence, though I barely rely on them. My voice carries cleanly across the room as I connect theory to lived decisions, the kind of choices people make when no one is watching, when ethics are tested in ordinary places.The students respond in uneven patterns. Some lean forward, pens moving across notebooks, capturing every structured idea. Others recline, eyes lowered to phones they try to disguise under the desk, still listening in fragments. A few nod at precise moments, as though something internal has aligned with what I am saying. The rhythm of teaching steadies something in me that has been unsettled. In this space, there is only structure, language, and the expectation of clarity. Everything else is temporarily muted.Halfway through the session, I scan the back rows and pause.Lucien
I wake before Mark, and the house feels lighter. The divorce papers have been sitting in my drawer for weeks. This morning, I finally pull them out, place them on the kitchen table beside a pen, and make myself a cup of coffee.By the time Mark stumbles into the kitchen, he's hungover, irritable, and scratching his stomach. His gaze lands on the papers, and he stops short.“What the hell is this?”“Divorce papers,” I say, taking a sip of coffee. “Sign them.”He stares at me as if I've suddenly started speaking another language.“Divorce? You? The old Catherine would never pull this shit. You always forgave. You always stayed.”I set my mug down.“The old Catherine is gone. Sign.”A laugh escapes him, but there's no real amusement behind it.“You can't be serious. We have kids. A life. You really want to throw that away because of one mistake?”“One mistake?” I fold my arms across my chest. “You fucked my friend for months. Disappeared for weeks. Called me leftovers. Don't talk to me a
I freeze on top of Lucien. His cock is still buried inside me. The footsteps downstairs grow louder. Keys hit the table. A familiar voice curses under his breath.Mark.He's home. After weeks of nothing, he chooses today of all days.Lucien’s eyes meet mine. He looks more amused than scared. I clam
The vibrator buzzes between my legs but it does nothing for me. I push it deeper, desperate for any kind of relief after weeks of avoiding Lucien. Flashbacks storm in without warning. The way he filled me. The low groan he made when he came inside me. I pump the toy faster, hips lifting off the bed
The knock on the door nearly makes me jump out of my skin.Lucien and I both go still.For a brief, suspended second, neither of us moves an inch. The air in the office feels abruptly compressed, as though the space itself has become aware of what it just interrupted. Whatever fragile equilibrium e
The ballroom pulses with low music and the clink of expensive champagne glasses. Crystal chandeliers throw golden light across masks and gowns, but I feel like I’m suffocating in the middle of it all. I tug at the edge of my silver mask, making sure it’s still secure. The backless black dress hug
