brow furrowed. “What? No.” She took a deep breath and traded the confused look for a patient one. “I appreciate your concern, Sorin, but I’m not leaving them here alone.”
“Of course not. I’ll have someone outside the door all night.”
“I…I’m fine . It was nothing. Really.”
Her took away her excuse and she still scrambled for more? Why didn’t she want to sleep in his cabin? “This isn’t negotiable, Harmony.”
She looked to her friends and t hey nodded. “Just go with him,” Monica said. “We’ll be fine.”
Gaze on him, she toyed with her bottom lip, reminding him of when she’d sucked his finger last night. His erection was starting already and she wasn’t even in his bed yet. He tried to adjust himself discreetly, but when Harmony smirked he knew she’d noticed.
Little brat.
“Pack your things,” he ordered, leaving no room for backtalk. Satisfied she’d obey, he stepped outside to call a guard for the cabin.
He did a sweep of the area outside but didn’t detect anything out of the ordinary. Could it all be in her head? He thought for a moment then discarded that idea. Harmony had good instincts. He couldn’ t have asked for a better mate. At that, the urge to hold her, smell her, became too much.
He knocked on the cabin door then walked in. Harmony was just on the other side and he scooped her into his arms , inhaling the flowery scent of her hair. She smelled like home.
Vaguely, he regi stered the girly awww’s behind him. He barely refrained from placing a proprietary hand on her ass. Instead, he whispered in her ear, “You’re mine. You go where I go.”
Her small shudder made him smile.
She tried to pull away, he held her a couple seconds more, just to show her he could before releasing her.
After grabbing her bag from the floor, she said a qu ick goodbye to her friends. Marcus was already outside for the first watch.
“Thanks, Marcus ,” Harmony said as they walked down the cabin stairs.
Sorin took her bag and they walked toward his cabin on the other side of camp. It was quiet tonight, which unsettled him even more after Harmony’s concern. The air felt more still than usual – like just before a storm. He hugged Harmony to him, feeling the overwhelming need to protect her.
She peered up at him, her forehead crinkle d in an adorable look of uneasiness. “Are we going to…”
“Fuck? Yes.”
In the dimness of the night, he couldn’t tell if she was blushing or not, but he imagined she was.
“Are you going to…tie me up again?”
Her audible gulp made him grin. “Did you like that? ”
“It wa s okay.” She shrugged nonchalantly, but he wasn’t fooled.
With an arm wrapped around her waist, he pulled her behind the closest cabin, in to a shadowy spot where no one could see.
She yelped when he threw her up against the wall.
“This,” he shoved his hand down the front of her jeans, “tells me it was more than just okay.” As he’d expected, her underwear was wet.
She moaned and buried her head in his neck.
He pressed on her clit and held her there. Her weight fell on his shoulders.
“ Sorin,” she rasped. “Please.”
His cock twitched at the sound of his name on her lips, especially with her voice so needy. She was a lusty thing. This pleased him. He removed his hand before he lost control and fucked her up against the cabin. He wasn’t even sure whose cabin it was.
“I won’t tie you up, love,” he said, placing little kisses on her neck. “As long as you behave.”
That brought his feisty demoness back. She snorted and adjusted her jeans. “Behave my ass.”
“Your ass will behave if it wants to stay out of trouble.” To send the message home, he gave that ass a hard squeeze.
She squeaked, which sent his inner predator into overdrive. When she gazed up at him, wo rrying her bottom lip, he growled. He wanted to tell her to run – to chase her down like the delicious prey she was. But he hadn’t been able to get one
