“That my Little Sparrow is about to be mine.”

I wipe my thumb over my bottom lip as the door closes behind her and slip it between my teeth. Her sweet taste fills my mouth, drawing a low groan from the back of my throat. “Enjoy your three days of freedom, Little Sparrow.”

I deserve better than some guy who only cares about me when he wants to. I want to be someone’s everything.

“Matthias, I’m tired.” Her words gut me, knowing she means them in more ways than one. She’s been fighting for her place in this world, desperate to separate herself from her family’s wrongdoings.

I drop my forehead to hers. “Felt your breath on my skin.” Our mouths brush. “Felt your lips pressed to mine.” She opens for me, and I deepen the kiss. “Tasted the sweetness of your tongue.”

I have belonged to you for so long I can’t remember what it feels like to belong to myself.
