This is shameful. But it makes Alejandro smile in pleasure, in pride, that he's able to break me and bend me into his will. "I believe I said that I was fine if you wanted to wait, " he admits.

The statement left no mark on Alejandro, instead, he thrusts into me harder, making me cry out but I didn't care, not anymore.
