If anything, it deepened. “Then I’ll make sure you stay alive long enough to try.” His free hand ripped the flimsy red lace from my body like it was paper. I arched, trying to twist away, but his weight pinned me, all hard muscle and coiled rage.

I jolted. “Don’t—!” Too late. One thick finger pushed inside me, hard. I sobbed, my back bowing off the bed, but he only chuckled, working me open with slow, cruel, torturous strokes. “Tighter than I thought,” he mused, a cruel smirk curling on his annoyingly handsome face. “Did your little ex not know how to stretch this pretty little cuntt?” I kicked wildly, but his other hand clamped down on my hip, his nails nearly drawing blood. “Keep fighting,” he dared me, adding a second finger.

His thumb found my clit, circling it slowly, tauntingly. A low hiss escaped my lips. “Devil.” He chuckled, low and wicked. “You keep saying that.” His fingers slid lower, through my slick, and my breath hitched. “Yet here you are,” he murmured, “dripping for the devil.”lg...
