Deacon (The Sovereign Mountain, #3)

by Raya Morris Edwards

Alone is my favorite place. Quiet is my favorite sound.

“I will eat your pussy if I have to tie your legs open,” he says, voice harsh. “Not tonight, but I swear, I will.” My shame disappears as he takes control from my hands. This isn’t my fault, after all. He’s the one in charge. “You want to be fucked dirty?” he presses. Flushed, wet, my pussy spread for him, I nod hard. The corner of his mouth turns up and, in one movement, he slides an arm under me and flips me onto my hands and knees. The wind knocks from me. I don’t have time to recover before his hand goes to the back of my head. His fingers fist in my hair, dragging my head back. I see myself reflected a dozen times in the mirrors inlaid in the headboard. I’ve never seen myself so desperate. “Let’s fuck then, sweetheart.”

There’s no going back for me. She’s worth everything I’m going to do to make her mine.

“I’m gonna fuck you good and hard, sweetheart, so keep your head on straight for it.”

There’s something about seeing such a big man on his back, breathing hard because of something I’m doing, that drives me wild.

think she just wants somebody to see it too, maybe to tell her it’s alright to feel hurt.

“You call me daddy, sweetheart,” he says. “At least when I’ve got my cock this far up your cunt.”

“I’m your whore, daddy,” I whisper. “Say it out loud, or I’ll put you on your knees and fuck it out of you,” he says. He ruts his hips, and there’s a hint of cruelty in them. “I’m your whore, daddy,” I gasp out. “Good fucking girl.”

But I don’t pull away because he knows what I need. He doesn’t hold back his affection. My body is kissed, stroked, praised, and held until I forget everything. Until the stars flicker out as my eyes shut.

“Why put flowers in my hair?” she whispers. “Because I’m about to give you the most disrespectful fucking you’ve ever had, and I want you to feel beautiful for it,” I say. “Remember when you’re gasping for air and begging like a whore that I can be gentle.”

“I never dreamed of a big wedding, just somebody who loves me for all the days afterward.”
