“They want me and only me. I’m the one that’s causing all of these problems. Maybe I should just let them kill me in order to save all of you.”
Everyone starts yelling at once, and Orion transforms back into his human form, quickly wrapping his hand around my neck and towering over me.
“Over my dead fucking body. You pull shit like that, and I will make sure your ass burns so hard you won’t be able to sit right for a month,” he growls at me, and I struggle to breathe. I’m caught between truly being afraid, and being seriously turned on. “Everyone, get the fuck out. Harleigh and I need to have a little chat.” He doesn’t even move his eyes to look at anyone, but I see Bry and Colt nod.
“I don’t fucking think so!” Dad bellows, and Colt steps in front of him.
“If you don’t leave, you’re going to watch your daughter in an overly… compromising position you will never be able to unsee.” Dad’s face turns green as he looks over to us, and a shiver runs through his body.
“Orion, if you hurt her, I will kill you.” Orion smirks down at me.
“I never hurt her more than she begs me to.”
I blush as Dad’s face blanches before he mumbles his goodbyes and leaves with Gramps laughing at his discomfort the whole way.
“Angel boy and I will be in the gym if you need us.” Colten laughs before they head out the door, Orion’s eyes never leaving mine.
Once the room is quiet, his eyes narrow on me even more, and I swallow. I’m not afraid of him, but I know I’m about to get punished for trying to put myself in danger. Again.
“You want to be a martyr?” he says, his voice overly calm when I know he’s vibrating with anger beneath the surface.
I can tell by the way his fingers are twitching against my throat. “You want to put yourself in danger. Again, and put all of us through the loss of our soulmate?”
I can feel the tears threatening to spill when I look into his eyes and see the pain he’s feeling so clearly.
“I just want everyone I love to be safe,” I whisper as a tear falls down my cheek, and his hand loosens, allowing me to suck in some air.
“It’s not your job to keep all of us safe. Losing you would destroy us in every single way. How can you not see that?”
I sniff.
“I can see that, but can’t you see how much it would kill me to lose any of you? We’re all going to battle because I’m a freak,” I cry.
He shakes his head, tightening his fingers again and growling, leaning in so his lips are barely touching mine.
“You’re not a freak, Harleigh. You’re beyond perfect.” He kisses me hard, his tongue shoving into my mouth, meeting my own in passion and want.
All of the emotions we’re feeling escaping through the kiss until we’re both left panting, my core soaked in need for him.
“I need you, O,” I moan, and he smirks.
“I know, baby. I will give you anything you need.”
I swallow and look at him, biting my lip, and he groans.“Control me.”
He nods, standing up and pulling me up with him, his hand still on my throat.
“You want this, baby? You want me to dominate you into submission?” It’s a rhetorical question. He knows I need this. Brian and Colten knew too, it’s why they left us alone, but I nod anyway, and he releases his hold on my throat.
“Strip, and present to me like the good little pet you are,” he orders, and I follow his command.
He’s trained me well over the summer. How to be his perfect submissive, so I can let everything go, and I love it.
Stripping out of my clothes while keeping my eyes down, I pull my hair into a high ponytail before kneeling in front of him. Spreading my legs as far as I can, I sit back on my heels before turning my palms up on my thighs and looking down to the floor.
He groans, and I can see him adjusting himself as he walks toward the closet where he keeps the toys he’s collected for us.
He had a collection he had used on women before me, but I refused to let him touch me with them and he didn’t argue. He just threw them away, and we shopped together for the things he knew I would love, and the things I was interested in trying.
“You’re a very good pet to wait for Sir like this,” he praises me when he comes back, bag in hand, and starts stripping off his clothes until he’s gloriously naked in front of me.
I can see his hardness pointing out from the corner of my eye, and I lick my lips wanting to taste him.
A hard hand comes down on my ass and I squeak, not letting myself move.
“Are your eyes supposed to be on me?” he asks, and I shake my head.
“No, Sir.” He nods and opens the bag, pulling out the flogger, and my core clenches.
“Then why were you sneaking looks at my cock?” He questions, and I moan. The flogger quickly comes down hard on the middle of my ass. “Answer me, pet.”
“I—I’m sorry, Sir.” I could explain to him exactly how badly I want to taste his cock, but he will deny me that if I do.
He smirks like he knows I’m being vague on purpose.
“That wasn’t really an answer though, was it, pet?” He kneels in front of me, bringing the flogger to slowly caress my clit, and I hold back my moan. “See, I think my pet wanted to swallow my dick, and she couldn’t help herself.” He leans in close to me, and it takes everything inside of me to stay still.
I feel alive with energy and need thrumming through my veins as he continues to swipe the leather straps against my core.
