But, fuck me, Ilikedit.

“Which files did you read?” I pointed at the stack on the desk.

She flicked her hair over a shoulder and shrugged.

“Nothing important. They mentioned your name a lot.” A teasing lilt decorated her words.

I took a step closer, and despite all her bravado, she flinched. Lux recovered quickly, but I could tell how hard it was getting for her to hide her fear.

“I bet you think we’remonsters,” I rasped.

That was the only word for us.

But, Lux shook her head. “Iknowyou’re human. All of you,evenSolomon.”

I breathed a little slower at the mention of another’s name. She wasn’t supposed to havemy name,let alone anyone else’s. And, while I should have been mad at that fact, I couldn’t get over the sound of Solomon onher lips. Anger flared in my chest.

This wasmyhouse.Mygame.Mypack of rejected super soldiers. The only name onherlips should have beenmine.

My fingers twitched at my sides, begging to dig into her flesh. I didn’t hurt women. It was impolite, but,fuckshe was doing something dangerous to me.

“Bet you’ve fucked all of them tonight, haven’t you?”

Another step closer, and another flinch back. She nearly sat on my desk now.

“Yeah. I have,” she said, unabashedly. “I thought that was part of the game.”

The twist in my stomach tightened.

“How many of them came in you?” I barely managed the words through my gritted teeth.

“All except Solomon.”

There it was again. His name on her lips. His name onmylips. Everything about Lux Rhodes was made for me. Made for me toworship. Made for me tokeep. Made formeto ruin. No one else, and though I never minded sharing with my comrades, the sound of Solomon’s name on her tongue was enough to make mesnap.

With one hand, I held her wrists, the other, I tangled in her hair. Yanking on the strands, I forced her to look up at me. Her lips parted, big, dark, doe eyes stared into mine. I shoved her the rest of the way onto the desk, nearly knocking over my monitor.

She gasped but didn’t scream, and I savoredhow soft her skin was against mine. Most times, it hurt to touch or be touched,but not right now. For the first time since the experiments, the warmth of another’s body feltgood.

I barely had time to process that fact because she spread her thighs without needing to be asked.

What a good fucking girl.

“Even with all of them, you still want me?GreedyLittle Light.” I scoffed, looking down at her with mock disdain.

A shy smile curled one side of her full lips. That was the first thing I’d noticed about this bride; everything about her looked so soft, so inviting, sotouchable.

Mine.Mine.Mine.

My heart skipped, each thunderous beat forced more and more air out of my lungs.

Letting go of her hands, I dropped my towel. It was easier to breathe now that the saturated bamboo fabric pooled around my ankles, but only slightly.

“Why do you insist on playing with the dark, Little Light?” I husked, grabbing my shaft and running it along the moist heat of her slit.

She felt so good that my knees nearly buckled. I couldn’t wait to destroy that tight cunt of hers.

“You guys aren’t the dark… you’re justlost,” she breathed.
