Kairus leaned down and pressed his lips into the top of my shoulder. I cried out when his teeth sank into my skin. Electric volts shot through my body.
There was no doubt in my mind, this was exactly where I belonged.
“We should talk,” I rasped. My throat was slightly sore from being choked, but I welcomed it.
After the round on the steps he brought me upstairs and tied me to the bed, eating my pussy until I begged him to stop, then fucked me again. I was tired and my body felt exhausted but I knew a conversation was needed.
“About what?”
“About me coming back.” His eyes narrowed.
I adjusted on the bed and rubbed my hands over the rope marks on my wrists. My eyes landed on the tattoo on my finger.
“I want to come back and live with you. I didn’t like how I felt when you sent me back home. I tried to go back to normal but it was pointless, you’ve become a part of me and I can’t deny that,” I started. “I have rules though.”
That caused him to raise a brow with mirth beaming in his eyes. “Rules, huh?” He leaned against his dresser. My eyes ran over his face, taking in all the scars on his skin. I loved his imperfections. He was so cold and cut off most of the time, those scars made me remember hewashuman.
“For one, I don’t want to be held captive here anymore. I want to be able to come and go as I please without you tracking my movements and without a driver.” His jaw clenched. “I am also signing back up for school. It took some work and a lot of time but I got everything situated when it came to me missing the end of the semester. Getting my degree is important to me and I don’t want anything getting in my way.”
“That’s it?” His head tilted, words void of emotions.
“No. Stop killing and beating people up over me. If we’re gonna do this then you have to realize that I only have eyes for you. There’s no need to hurt anyone because you think they’re going to take me away. Also, I want to know how you always know where I am. The whole time I was gone you tracked me somehow. I felt you but I never saw you.” My eyes narrowed. “How?”
Kairus didn’t reply right away. He pushed off the dresser and made his way toward me. His movements were slow and predatory.
When he got close to me, I tilted my head up as he brushed his hands over my neck and his thumb rubbed my pulse point.
“Your rules are cute.”
“Cute?” My mouth turned upside and my brows furrowed.
“Yes, cute. The fact that you believe I will ever be okay with another man being in your space is amusing to me.”
I reached out to grab his wrist. He continued stroking my pulse point.
“Kairus, I get you have issues from your childhood, but I need you to work with me here. I don’t want anyone else but you, that’s why I came back. You’ve imprinted yourself on me and no matter how much I tried to get over you I couldn’t. Please, stop hurting people because of me.”
His body tensed and he peered into my eyes, face unmoving. “What will I get in return?” he questioned.
I licked my lips. “Whatever you want.”
A taunting smirk formed on his face. “Careful, that’s a lot of power. You sure you’re up to it?”
I swallowed hard and nodded. “Yes. If it means no one will get hurt, then I am.”
He watched me silently. I was hyperaware of his touch. “As long as they don’t touch you, we can see how it goes.” It wasn’t the answer I wanted but it was a start.
“And the other things? Not being so controlling and treating me like a human and not property?”
“Mhm…but you are my property, Beauty. My name on you says so.” His voice came out low and husky. I had to remind myself that my pussy had just gotten a nice beating and needed a break.
“Kairus, I’m serious. I love how possessive you get over me but sometimes it’s too much.” I could tell by the darkness that flashed through his eyes he didn’t like what I said but it was the truth. I wanted the freedom to do what I wanted without worrying Kairus would pop up and cause a scene. I was a grown woman and had no desire to ask permission to go anywhere.
“You’re making a lot of demands and seem to be the only one getting something out of all of this.”
Breathing heavily, I shifted so I was now on my knees and lifted, causing his hand to drop. I wrapped my arms around his neck and smiled.
“You get me.” Leaning in, I pecked his lips. “All of me. You get to tie me up, mark me, claim me whenever you want for all to see if you please.” My voice grew lower and sultrier. His eyes flashed and his nostrils flared. “No one has ever gotten me like that before.”
