Since he hadn’t given me permission to speak, I merely nod my head.
“Good, now I’m going to give you three colors you need to remember. Kiwi for if there’s something you really like. Banana for something you’re uncomfortable with but not to the point I won’t try it again. Raspberry if it’s a no-go. Got me?”
Again, I nod my head.
“Good girl, Now repeat the colors,” he commands
“Kiwi for if there’s something I really like. Banana for something I’m uncomfortable with but not to the point I won’t try it again. Raspberry if it’s a no-go,” I murmur repeating him word for word.
“That’s a good girl. You, Kitten, are going to listen to me and listen good,” he mutters sitting down next to me on the bed, his fingers gliding across my stomach. “You fucked up tonight. From the time you moved here to start over, you fooled me into thinking you were just a boring, predictable woman who didn’t want nothing to do with anyone. Then tonight after whatever Raven told you, you Luna, showed me exactly what you were capable of. All that fire inside you wanting to be released. And now after the way you reacted to me in the living room. Submitting to me the way you did. I know what you need and I intend to give it to you. It’s been a long time since I’ve actually wanted a sub for my own. Honestly, don’t think I’ve ever truly had the desire to take one on as much as I do right now.”
Oh my God. He knows.
He doesn’t just know he just claimed me as his sub.
“Have you ever had a Dom, Luna?” he asks.
I shake my head, answering him honestly.
“Do you know the rules of the game?”
This time I nod in response.
“Good, now I’m going to go over my own rules,” he declares, his fingers trailing ever so slowly along my skin moving from the edge of my breast to just above my slit where I want to feel him most.
“From now on, unless I’m there to give you permission, you do not go to a club dressed the way you were tonight.”
See I knew I was an embarrassment.
“I don’t need every fuckers’, in the club, eyes on what’s mine. Second rule, you don’t dance the way you were tonight without me right there with you. You only do that in private. Too many dickheads were envisioning sinking their cocks into this,” Shadow states as he cups me between the apex of my thighs.
“Another thing is, you will not hide who you are anymore. Now that I’ve seen it, I don’t intend to have you hiding anymore. You will also never, and I mean never, fuckin’ do what you did tonight and leave the club without not only telling someone but by your fuckin’ self.” Shadow thrusts a finger inside my core and slides it slowly torturing me as he stresses each word.
“Focus, Kitten, I’m not done talking yet,” he mutters. “What you did tonight put yourself in danger, but it also scared people who care for you. It pissed me off thinking you might have been kidnapped again. That’s not a phone call I want to make to your pops.” My body tenses at the mention of my dad. “Oh, he knows where you are. He also knows you’re under our protection as well as knowing how this occurred.”
If he knows where I am, why hasn’t he contacted me. I guess I really don’t mean anything to him. Or my brothers for that matter.
“On to the next thing, if some bitch talks smack about you and you hear it, don’t let that shit get to you, if it does you come to me, tell me what the fuck happened and I’ll handle it. From here on out nothing hurts you without repercussions. Am I understood?” To this I nod in response. Even if he gave me permission to speak, I don’t think I could as his words sink inside me.
“Good girl,” he says pulling his finger from inside. A whimper escapes me, and I want to protest his movement. Lifting his hand to my face, he swipes his fingers across my lips coating them in the juice that gathered on them and leans forward and captures my mouth in a forceful yet soul searing kiss I’ll remember for the rest of my life.
Shadow breaks the kiss all to soon leaving me wanting more, the same as he left me needing him inside me. “Now, we’re going to sleep,” he announces, moving from the side of the bed in order to pull the comforter out from under me. Draping it over my naked body, he bends down and removes his boots. Straightening he undoes his jeans and drops them to the floor where he steps out of them. I barely have a chance to take in his naked glory when he joins me in the bed, positioning us until I’m lying on my side, back to his front and Shadow’s arms curled around me.
My heart starts to pound within my chest when not only was Shadow in my bed naked and his arms were around me, he had one cupping a breast the other palming my apex. I swear this is the most intimate position there is.
“Clear your mind, Kitten,” Shadow murmurs against the shell of my ear.
“How do I do that when I feel my world tipping upside down?” I whisper, into the silence that fills the room.
“You do it by closing your eyes and letting me take the weight off your shoulders. By knowing I’m here to keep you grounded as your world changes.” That sounded nice. Like really nice.
Closing my eyes, I do as he says and for the first time, I don’t count in my head. Not the days. Not the time. Not how many times he says fuck or my name. Nothing. For the first time I
