going beyond simple desire, her determination to hold her own with him rising as hot as her lust.
He stopped at her feet, his eyes narrowing as his hand went to the snaps of his jeans. Merinus’ hands
went to her breasts; she cupped them slowly, her fingers teasing her nipples as she arched her breasts
towards him. A move meant to tease, to entice. He growled low and deep, his lip lifting in a mild snarl.
Merinus smiled at him, her eyelids lowering as she licked her lips with her damp tongue, watching as the
thick, proud length of his cock emerged from the opening of his jeans.
“Open your thighs,” he ordered her, the grumble of his voice a sensual rasp over her nerve endings.
Merinus rose to her feet instead. She wouldn’t give him anything willingly this time. If he wanted her, if he
wanted to take her, make her his, then he would have to fight for it. Where the wildness came from, she
didn’t know. What made it rise like a demand in her body, she wasn’t certain. But it was there and
refused to be denied.
“You aren’t undressed yet,” she said a bit coyly. “Would you take me still dressed, with your cock the
only bare skin touching me?”
His eyes followed her movements carefully.
“I’m on the edge, Merinus,” he warned her, his voice dark. “This demon has risen too quickly, too hard
inside me. Lie down and don’t fight me. I don’t want to hurt you.”
She tossed him a look over her shoulder as she skirted a wide path around him.
“Perhaps you’re the one who will end up hurt,” she suggested, her voice low, pulsing with the arousal of
this new and intriguing desire rising inside her. “Why should I submit? You lie down, and allow me to
have my way with you.”
Her hand smoothed over her buttock as she passed by him, well out of arm’s reach. The sensation of
her own hand against her buttocks sent a tingle of pure heat rushing over her body. As she watched him
over her shoulder, she drew her nails across her skin, knowing she left the soft blush of the abrasion.
His face flushed, his eyes glittered. He moved without rushing, stripping his jeans from his body, the
powerful muscles of his legs and thighs tense and hard as he tossed the material to the couch.
“I won’t be easy, Merinus,” he promised her, moving around behind her, stalking her, his intent clear in
his expression.
“Neither will I,” she promised him.
She knew before he pounced. She watched the muscles of his chest bunch. An instant before he moved
she was streaking for the stairs. She felt her heart pounding harsh and loud in her chest, her blood raging
through her body, desire wrapping around them, urging them into a desperate game of domination.
He caught her halfway up the stairs. The heat of his body blanketed hers as he snagged her around the
waist, bringing her to a stop, bending her to her knees. Merinus bucked against him. She felt his erection
slide between the cheeks of her ass, heating the narrow crevice with his incredible heat. He was thick and
hard, and it would be so tempting to tilt her hips and allow him to thrust into the wet, needy channel he
sought.
She allowed him to believe that was her intention. She relaxed, moving against him, and when his arms
lifted to clasp her hips, she scrambled up the steps. Of course, he only let her go, she wasn’t fool enough
to believe she had actually escaped.
Merinus glanced back from the landing, watching as he came up the steps behind her. He was moving
fast, his expression savage. She sprinted for the bedroom, intent on slamming the door behind her,
locking him from her, leaving him only the scent of her incredible lust to beckon him. She made it as far as
pushing the door halfway closed, then he was there, pushing past it, slamming it closed behind them.
“Would you like to try hiding under the bed?” he suggested silkily as she backed up from him.
“Would you like to try my knee in your nuts again?” She smiled, watching him almost wince. His face
definitely tightened.
“You want me,” he accused her with no heat. “I can see your juices gleaming on your cunt.”
She licked her lips, running her tongue over them slow and easy as his eyes flared at the action.
“So take it.” She shrugged. “If you can.”
He smiled.
“You think it will be easy again, Merinus?” he asked her, his voice low and dangerous. “You think it will
merely be another hard, fast fuck before my barb anchors me inside you?”
Her vagina clenched in anticipation. But he only shook his head at her.
“Not this time,” he warned her. “This time, I will make you submit.”
“And just how do you intend to do this?” she questioned him archly.
