I was raised to believe that being a Lord is something special—nothing but endless wealth and power. Now I realize they are their own kind of prison, collecting us as prisoners. They chain us to them with no escape.

“I want you to feel me holding you down. I want you to hear yourself gasping for breath when I force you to come. And I want your eyes on mine while I make you cry. I’ll never drug you, Lake, because I don’t need you compliant. You’re now my wife, and I can take whatever I want from you.”

Being told that you’re not good enough over and over gets to you. No matter how much you try to ignore it, you start to tell yourself that maybe one day it’ll get better, but it doesn’t.

“Being alone in a world full of billions of people is hell.” I wrap my arms around myself, all of a sudden self-conscious of what I’ve let him do to me tonight. “I just wish for once in my life I’d get to choose something for me.” I turn and exit the bathroom, slamming the door behind me. Wet hair and all, I curl up in bed and let the first tear fall. This is why people shouldn’t drink. It makes you feel things you never did before.

The thought of her carrying not only one but two of my children turns me on so fucking much. I can’t wait to tie her to our bed at home and fuck her until she’s begging me to stop and then holding her in the bathtub, washing her body for her when she’s too weak to do it herself. I want to bring her breakfast in bed and help her get ready for the day. But then I also want those gorgeous blue eyes to cry for me while my cock is buried inside her. Taking her however I want, whenever I want.
