Her fearful eyes met mine. “Please, don’t hurt me.”
I concealed my anger toward Lorenzo well enough. “Char, it’s just me. Are you listening?”
She blinked, and her eyes seemed to clear. “Hey. Yes. I am.”
I cocked my head. “If this gets too intense—or you need a breather—just say so.”
She nodded quickly. “Yeah, yeah. I can do that.”
I slid my hand away from her skin. “Now, where were we?”
I didn’t like how she flinched. I didn’t like how scared she looked. I loosened the binds around her wrists and ankles a bit, and I watched her release a breath that she had been holding. Lorenzo would get what was coming to him. He’d pay for what he had done to my precious, beautiful Char.
After I was done worshipping her.

I watched as he eyed me carefully, his stare raking over my body. And while a big part of me was still fearful this would get bad very quickly, the way he smirked proved otherwise. He shed his clothes for me and let my eyes linger against his naked form, my eyes beholding the beautifully-etched muscles that wrapped around his solid bones. His broad shoulders tapered into chiseled arms as his waist tapered into a pair of hips I wanted to mark with my own teeth. The veins in his forearms and thighs bulged, teasing my tongue as I licked my lips. I’d never beheld the sight of a man so beautiful, so luscious that all I wanted to do was spread my legs and let him have me.
I felt my panties wetting as he placed a knee on the bed.
“I can already smell you, Char, eager and desperate to be filled.”
I nodded my head quickly. “Yes. Yes that’s—exactly how I feel.”
He smacked the inside of my thigh. “You don’t make the rules. I do. Got it?”
His eyes danced between mine and I nodded. “Got it.”
“Good. Now, stay as still as you can and don’t make a sound. Otherwise, I might just have to blindfold you for it.”
His hand crept up my leg and I curled my lips over my teeth. His fingertips fiddled with my drenched panties, and I bucked against his hand. He paused his movements and my nipples puckered in anticipation for what was to come.
Then, he dipped his fingers beyond my panties and parted my folds.
“Oh, shit,” I whispered.
He paused his movements and smacked my thigh again. “Seems like someone can’t even follow simple directions.”
My eyes flew open. “Please, don’t stop. Teo, please, I’ve dreamt of you for so long, and I just--.”
He pushed himself off the bed and stormed toward his wall. I craned my neck to try and see what he was doing, but it was too dark over in the corner to make out his movements. When he emerged, though, electricity shot through my gut.
In his hands were a blindfold, a ball gag, and a clit stimulator.
My body began shivering as he tied the blindfold behind my head. He placed the ball gag into my mouth and I was already drooling on myself before he even got it tightened. I felt his cheeky grin and the way his eyes ran along my body, probably surveying the work he had just finished. And in that moment, I wanted nothing more than to kiss him.
But instead, he gave me something much, much more precious.
“Char, I have something I want to say to you, and I want you answer honestly. It’s only ‘yes’ or ‘no’, but take your time choosing.”
I nodded, but I couldn’t speak for obvious reasons.
“I want to make you a promise. No, a vow. I want to make you a vow I promise to uphold with everything I have and everything in my power. But, it requires a vow from you, too.”
I nodded again to let him know I was listening.
“I will always keep you safe, Char. I will always come after you. No matter where you are, no matter who has you, and no matter what life you choose, I will always be there to make sure you have everything you could possibly need. Money. Safety. Food. Reassurance. Whatever it is you need, I will always be there to provide.”
