His Pretty Little Burden (Kids of The District, #4)

by Nicci Harris

"I got it, darlin'," he says with a wink that is all for show.

Hi Bronson

"Now, now, darling," Bronson says, that dark smile forming on his lips. "You know I won't let you kill them."

Voice of reason.

"She doesn't eat. Hardly sleeps." He pauses, and my heart becomes an erratic drum between my ears. "If you were my property, I'd bend you over my knee."

"Mine," I hiss. Mine. Mine. A word I didn't know I would use, but now that I have, it takes root inside me. My responsibility. Mine to protect. Mine to care for. To clothe. To look at. Mine.

Damn Clay

pout my way into the bedroom.

Grow up

I'm very rarely careless with my property.

Yuck

Leaning down, I blow softly on her nipples,

Eeeew dude she's sleeping

"The thorns and stems are what protected them. Roses are only able to be so soft and beautiful due to that protection."

Beat us over the head with the message huh?

I instantly comply, sitting down.

Ugh she's rIdiculous

Three aggressive veins create bulging blue channels up the length. The black lines from his torso tattoo lick down, finishing at the root.

Eew

"So pretty. Don't shower until I tell you to."

Eew. At least let her pee, that's a uti waiting to happen

You left. You left when I needed to be held.

Cause he's an alpha dick

"Destroy them both. She never sees them,"

I get why he doesn't want her to know. Its wrong but I get it

"I won't be yours, but you are mine.

Absolutely No

"Is this for Sir's campaign?"

Sir? Even outside the bedroom?

Stroking her plump folds, I watch her hips circle my meticulous movements.

Dude. She was raped while high and unconscious . You have this disgusting habit of doing this while she's asleep

I will still be using her when Dustin shows up. I will... She won't be harmed, at least not physically. Dammit.

Wtf

I sob. "Sir."

Geez even during this you're his little sub?

"This is the last thing, Fawn. I swear it! The last thing. I will drag God himself to Hell before I let you hurt again."

This is a line that would usually work for me, but from him it just comes off predatory

“I thought we were making progress. Do you need a repeat of what I did in the car?”

She literally just miscarried, the day before, this is gross

“I did good?”

Jesus Christ. She's annoying

"I'll dance with you."

Very least you could do Clay

"Comfortable."

I think he’s a cheeseboard...

Ridiculous analogy

“Her name is Kaya Lovit.”

Let me guess a love interest for Xander

"I love her."

Do you? Do you really?

"I love you," he says again. "And I want to love you so fucking hard there is no room for the past. Or the pain. And I will, sweet girl. I won't stand by and allow you not to like yourself when what I see is... spectacular."
