Defiled: A Dark Paranormal Romance Read online

  Her exclamation was another one I hadn’t expected, but her verve and fiery eyes, the way her hair shimmered even in the shadows was positively enthralling. I was harder than I’d ever been before, my dark cravings exposed and the need to fulfill them pushing past any sense of reality.

  “You have no idea how intriguing you are, Sadie.” I swirled the glass, my eyes never leaving her. I could tell she was well aware I continued watching her, fascinated by her ingénue-like mannerisms, but she couldn’t fool me. Yes, she was innocent but there was much more to her, a woman clawing at her insides to get out. Tonight would be her first lesson in obeying.

  “I’m just a girl in search of higher education.”

  “And you and I know differently. For the sake of our conversation, I’ll tell you the truth. I hunger for you, Sadie. There is no denying that, but what I also know is that you’ve spent many nights dreaming about a man who could break your vow of chastity.” The words seemed to hit home, a very slight twitch forming in the corner of her mouth.

  “Chastity?” she asked, laughing.

  “Yes. You have no trust for men.”

  Her twitch turned into a twisting of her lips. “I have my reasons.”

  “But you trust me. Isn’t that true?”

  Sadie laughed softly at first, shaking her head even as she darted her eyes in my direction several times. “I don’t... know.”

  “Yes. You do,” I said carefully, keeping my tone melodic and even. “What’s more, you can be yourself around me. All your desires fulfilled. All your needs satisfied. Would you like that, sweet Sadie?”

  She looked down at the floor, swaying slightly.

  “Answer me, Sadie. And tell me the truth. I need the truth with everything you say.”

  “Yes.”

  “Then tell me what you want.”

  A fire seemed to spark within her, an awakening of the woman inside. Perhaps my lovely queen was finally free from chains that I’d help place around her, keeping her mind and soul locked away until the right time.

  Keeping her safe.

  Protected from the evils swarming, prepared to take great lengths to destroy my father’s household. I could barely think straight as I waited for her answer, the adrenaline flowing almost overwhelming.

  “I want pure ecstasy. I long for a man to hold me, adore me. Want me. I want the entire fairytale. What I want is forever.”

  Chapter Nine

  Christoff

  Forever...

  Immortal.

  Loved.

  She could have no understanding of what her frank words did to me. I took several additional sips of my drink before easing the glass onto the floor. The thud as the heavy base was placed against the hardwood made her jump, the sheen on her face increasing in intensity. “Come here, Sadie.”

  “Why?”

  Sighing, I moved to a standing position, very slowly removing my jacket, neatly laying it across the back of the chair. Next, I unbuttoned both sleeves, rolling the crisp white material in fold after fold until the shirtsleeves were just below my elbows. By the time I was finished, her body was swaying. I sat down once again, placing the tips of my fingers from both hands together, keeping them flexed open as I responded. “Because you’re going to be punished for your infractions.”

  Another nervous laugh was followed by a slight moan. “You’re serious.”

  I tilted my head slowly to the side. “I never joke about discipline or passion.”

  Her punishment would be severe. Every muscle in my body twitched, tension wrapping around every tendon, suffocating, intoxicating me as the hunger crept into all the dark places.

  “I’m sorry,” she said ever so quietly in a fresh and utterly vulnerable manner.

  “Unfortunately, saying the words no longer matters at this point. You disobeyed me. In fact...” I contemplated my words before finishing. “I believe you were doing nothing but testing me.” She had no understanding of the kind of man I truly was. Her instincts were complex, remain standoffish yet entice.

  Sadie narrowed her eyes before easing her glass onto the coffee table, wiping her hands nervously down her dress. I could tell her hands were shaking, much the way her mind was working through the various measures she could use to pull me into her feminine wiles. She simply couldn’t embrace my power, my hunger, or the things I would do to her.

  As she walked toward me, her eyelids half closed, I sensed a change in her. She still had no way of knowing about our past. Quite frankly, I wasn’t ready for her to remember, but I was prepared for her to submit.

  I brushed the tip of my index finger across my lips, my dark and demonic needs furrowing into my mind. I had to be very careful, only giving her a taste of my true power. Sadie Mullins would be required to accept her place in my world of her own accord.

  When she was only a few inches away, her face pensive, I simply studied the glowing fire for a few precious seconds. She was growing antsy, wanting nothing more than to rush through her punishment while I wanted nothing more than to take my time.

  Reveling in the accomplishment.

  “Remove your clothing.” I didn’t need to look at her to know she was astonished, perhaps even horrified at my request. After all, we weren’t lovers and had only just met. I held my tongue, pulling back on admonishing her for the additional hesitation. I was barely able to contain a smile when I heard the rustle of material, my human heart pumping in a manner I wasn’t accustomed to. The woman certainly could keep my blood pumping.

  I was aware when her dress was dropped to the floor, fisted my hand when I heard the scraping of her heels as she dragged them off her lovely feet. Inhaling, allowing her intoxicating scent to filter into every cell was almost too much, putting me close to the edge of the kind of hunger humans couldn’t fathom.

  Very slowly I turned my head, basking in her beauty. Her naked body was more than just a portrait of ultimate beauty. She was akin to the great goddesses of all time, her lush curves voluptuous and striking, long legs and the most insanely perfect nipples. My mouth watered, my cock ready to spill my seed deep into her womb.

  Patience, dark prince.

  I heard the voice rasping at me from the darkness of my mind, chuckling at the realization of just what kind of hold she had over me. Leaning back, I allowed my gaze to sweep to her crimson polished toes then back into her eyes. I eased her over my lap, settling her firmly across my knees.

  “What...” The question was unfinished even as she kicked out, taking several deep breaths.

  “You were warned. You disobeyed. As I said before, my requirements are quite simple and easy to follow.” I cupped my hand around her rounded bottom, caressing her skin then sliding the barest hint of my fingertips along her spine. “When you learn to obey my every command, the world will become yours.” Breathing out, I tugged her long strands of hair together, sliding them to the side.

  She dared try to look into my eyes, the same hint of fear remaining, but everything about this woman was beginning to become even more curious. A budding flower. A true ingénue. As my cock continued to throb, pulsing into her belly, I smacked my hand down against one ass cheek then the other.

  Yelping, she threw back her hand immediately, whimpering more out of shock. “Oh!”

  “Stay in position, Sadie. You deserve this.”

  She eased her arm down, her back rising and falling as she took deep breaths.

  I began again, bringing down my palm in swift and harsh motions, one coming after the other. The warm blush already creeping up on her soft skin was the most powerful aphrodisiac. I continued, peppering her ass with one hard smack after the other, enjoying both the sound of my hand hitting her skin as well as her subtle whimpers. A haze formed around my eyes as I continued, the beast deep within scratching at the surface.

  I was close to exposing myself, the truest form of my being. I was forced to close my eyes, struggling with the lewd desires, the insatiable need that continued to build to a state of ultimate frenzy. Within
seconds, my vision was entirely different, flashes of the past as well as the future mixing with the moment held within the present. The ability was damning, drawing me too far into the intense encounter.

  Death.

  Sex.

  Food.

  Everything was rolled into an amalgamation of heightened passion and a savage growl erupted from my lips. I brought my hand down again. And again. Until her bottom was red hot, soft whimpers pushing past her luscious lips.

  “Oh... That hurts.”

  “Spankings should hurt, my lovely Sadie.”

  “But...” She undulated on my lap, shifting back and forth, the friction absolutely delicious. I closed my eyes briefly, savoring the various sensations as I caressed her ass cheeks.

  “Quiet. This will help you understand.” I knew my words were cryptic, but she wasn’t ready.

  “I promise I’ll obey you.”

  “No, you won’t and that’s the beauty of the woman you are, but in time, things will change.” I spanked her again, sliding my hand from her upper thighs to her heated buttocks, taking my time to cover every inch of her delicious skin. Unable to resist, I slipped two fingers between her legs, darting them just past her sweet folds.

  Shuddering, she let out an elongated moan. “Oh... God.”

  I dragged the tip of my tongue across my incisors as I thrust my fingers inside. She was so wet, the scent of her juice filling my nostrils. I wanted nothing more than to sink my tongue into the very core of her, savoring every last drop of her cream. I plunged hard and fast before sliding my fingers up along the crack of her ass, teasing her as I caressed her bruised skin.

  Tensing, she eased her hand to my leg, her back now heaving. “Christoff...”

  “Do you hunger for me? Do you long to have my cock buried deep within you?” I wiggled my thumb between her ass cheeks, swirling the tip around her dark hole.

  “Yes.” Her answer was laced with a sultry subtleness, the single word fueling my increasing libido. She was crossing the simple line, a barrier she’d created for herself.

  Closing my eyes, I fell into a quiet state of being as I pulsed my thumb in and out. While she tensed, her entire body quivering, she also continued grinding against me. Her slickened pussy was so wet, her sweet juice soaking into the pressed linen of my far too stiff trousers. Soon, I wouldn’t be able to control my needs, hungers morphing into a beastlike state. I refused to stop assaulting her asshole, savoring the feel for a full minute then proceeding to smack her bottom with brutal movements.

  Every stinging sensation shifting into my skin was simply another awakening. I was methodical in my actions, moving from one side to the other in a practiced manner until I could take it no more. My entire body shaking, I threw my head back, releasing a scattered breath as I kept my true being from slicing through the surface. I wanted this experience to last, her submittal of utmost importance. I rubbed her beautifully reddened ass, taking deep breaths as goosebumps floated to every inch of her naked skin.

  Sadie took gasping breaths, her shoulders shifting then tensing, uncertain of what to expect.

  I eased her onto my lap, running my fingers through her disheveled hair as I studied her face. “Have you learned your lesson?”

  Her smile was nothing more than a taste of pure sin. “Probably not.”

  My booming laugh filtered into the dense air. “On your knees. Show me what that pretty little mouth of yours can do. Allow me to see what you crave. And what you require.”

  Her entire face seemed to light up, the shimmer illuminating her inner core pristine. She was... Honorable.

  Innocent.

  Mouthwatering.

  Purring, she did as she was told, sliding onto the floor in the most elegant manner, her fingers constantly touching. She slid the slender pads along the insides of my thighs as she eased my legs apart.

  I reached for my drink, allowing the ice cubes to clink against the glass as I pulled the rim to my lips. Watching her was fascinating, her tentative yet perfectly positioned fingers taunting me until my balls were almost blue, the ache biting. Jarring. Even though I hid the snarl slipping up from my throat, I sensed she had an understanding of the beast who sat in her presence. Then again, if she did, her courage was far more powerful than it should be.

  Her deft fingers unfastened my belt, caressing the leather as her mouth pursed. I wanted nothing more than to rip the strap from the loops, using it to whip her bottom and legs until they were ruby red in color. I savored the thought as she fumbled to unfasten the button, ever so slowly yanking on the zipper. When she peeled away the material, finally releasing my cock, I slid into a moment of utter nirvana, closing my eyes.

  She yanked my shirt, pushing it up as she slid her hands to my stomach, kneading her fingers across my skin. I heard the slightest laugh pushing past her lips and couldn’t help but smile.

  Every inch of my body was over-sensitized, awakened from a long winter’s nap, the creature ready to pounce. This would be a true test of patience.

  Sadie blew across the tip of my cock as she ran her hands underneath, cradling my swollen testicles. She squeezed in a loving manner as she darted out her tongue, tracing the thin slit on my cockhead. Nothing could have felt better. I felt the brush of her long hair whisking across my skin as she lowered her head, licking down the underside of my shaft.

  I opened my legs further, allowing her full access, the glass tumbler heavy in my hand.

  She rolled my balls between her fingers, adding just enough pressure to keep me enticed.

  To keep me on the edge.

  Her wet tongue became an incredible instrument, the slight roughness tickling every synapse as she licked up and down, taking her time. Her soft purrs never ceased even as she reached my balls. “So hard.”

  “Mmmm... Yes, Sadie. Imagine my cock filling you. Every hole.” I lolled my head to the side, lost in the moment as she rolled the tip of her tongue around my swollen sac before taking a portion into her mouth. So hot. So freaking wet. I tensed, my muscles aching like a son of a bitch as she wrapped her hand around the base of my cock, sliding her delicate hand up and down.

  She sucked on one testicle then the other, making gratuitous noises, all further igniting the flame. I had to give her credit. She knew exactly what she was doing, driving me to the point of sheer madness.

  Her effort to control.

  Nothing had changed in the three plus years. Except her verve was stronger. Perhaps her resolve was now laced with contempt. I managed to dump the glass on the floor, the fingers on one hand digging into the arm of the chair, the other fisting her long hair.

  Her shoulders heaved as she licked and sucked, the sounds of pleasure intensifying. She allowed a single husky growl as she abandoned the one task, dragging the very center of her tongue all the way up the underside of my cock. Another strangled sound left her throat, spilling past her voluptuous lips as she twisted her hand back and forth on my shaft, barely sucking the tip of my cock.

  I gazed down at her with hazy eyes, studying her actions, making note of the way she continued her impressive manner of control. The woman was a force to be reckoned with. The thought gave me more pleasure than it should.

  After all, she should have already succumbed to my every need.

  Once again, I closed my eyes, holding her in place as she sucked harder, pulling my cock deeper into her hot little mouth. I could feel her jaw muscles clamping around the thick invasion, keeping me in position as she fondled my balls. She took me down an inch at a time, twirling her hand back and forth on the base, pumping to meet her luscious mouth as she sucked.

  I could certainly have allowed her to continue for hours, bringing me to the very height of ecstasy then pulling back, forcing her to work hard for her prize. Tonight, I was nothing more than a human man, one ultimately hungry to bury his cock in her wet pussy.

  But there would be another time, a reminder of certain... abilities. I smiled, sucking in my breath as I pressed my fingers against her head,
adding more pressure.

  Sadie relaxed her throat, taking another inch. Then another. I heard the slight gagging sounds, her scattered breathing as she attempted to hold the wide girth inside. I wanted nothing more than to shoot my entire load deep in her throat, but that would come later.

  And often.

  She slid her mouth all the way up, darting a look in my direction before she shifted onto her knees, going up and down in a crazed fashion. My little girl was hungry, but not nearly as much as her master. I couldn’t get enough of watching her actions, her beautiful facial expressions, the way she cinched her eyes shut. Even my legs were shaking from the sheer volume of adrenaline, creating palpitations in a heart muscle that had no meaning, no claim on my body.

  My grip on her hair became firmer as I took over control, forcing her up and down on my aching shaft. She dropped her arms to her sides, her expression serene and her eyelids flickering open and closed.

  I was suddenly overwhelmed with desire, the ragged sounds emitted from my throat barbaric in nature, nothing more than a wild beast. As my eyes dilated, my true nature attempting to take over, I became even more crazed in my actions, face-fucking her in a frenzied manner.

  She moaned but accepted every hard thrust and all the while, there was no tension, no fear. Just...

  Trust.

  This was no spell, no enchantment at this point. She’d allowed herself to fall for the mysterious suitor, a man she barely knew. Her raw emotions were chilling, shifting ugly, vile thoughts into my mind. But I could take no more. Not now. Three long years I’d waited to be inside of her. Three fucking long years to have what already belonged to me. I was done playing the waiting game.
