“Tell me, if I were to refuse you—what would you do?” Hands settled on her shoulders. “I would not force you, if that is your concern.” “Would you kill me? If I wanted to lie with another instead—” He growled. One arm banded around her, yanking her against his chest.
“I would demand to know what they could give you that I cannot.” She gasped but found herself slinging an arm behind his neck as he caressed her, his hand wandering over her body. “What if I—” “No. None shall have you but me. None shall taste you but my lips or the grave. I am a jealous and covetous thing, my darling Maxine. Do not tempt my wrath. Are you curious for another?” “I am testing the edges of the chains you have me wear.” “You wear no chains. Yet.” He growled into her shoulder, pulling the robe away to kiss her there. “Someday, you will. And you will beg me for more.”
I love you, Maxine. And for as long as I walk this Earth, I will never, ever let you go.
