Ashes of Chaos (Legacy of the Nine Realms #2) - Amelia Hutchins Page 0,129

seen a woman pleasuring herself or been so fucking turned on in my entire existence than when Aria’s clumsy-as-fuck fingers pushed into her tight paradise while she held my stare.

I didn’t care who the fuck she was; I’d wanted her. Never in my entire life had I not taken what I wanted. Women begged to fuck me, and most of them regretted it the moment I entered their sheath, stretching it out painfully. I didn’t do soft or sweet fucking. I abused vaginas, making them sore because once I’d fucked them, it was over. I didn’t go back for more, ever. Not until Aria.

Aria was a savage, like me. She fucked like she waged war against my cock, and fuck if I didn’t enjoy losing for a moment to let her think she held some resemblance of control. Her eyes undid me, growing heavy with lust, banking with a fire that left me burning for her.

She took all of me, and when she got to the end of my cock, she lifted and slammed her pussy home, again and again. I missed that feeling. I missed the feel of her tight cunt clenching down hungrily against my cock, draining my balls.

I’d never had anyone take me on and want more. Aria was the first woman ever to do so without complaint. She fucking rode me hard, and when she finished, she climbed off, patted my chest, and walked out the door like my dick wasn’t the best thing she’d ever felt pounding into her cunt. That pissed me off even more.

So fucking what if it was the only cock she’d ever had? The moment she smiled with me buried in her pussy, she’d signed her soul over to the devil in red lipstick with a fucking ‘call me’ note on her panties.

“Are we going to talk about what the fuck happened back there?” Brander demanded, and I turned, glaring at him.

“That little bitch aimed for my heart, and she dug it out of my chest. Aria meant to hurt me, and I’d be fucking shocked if she hadn’t wanted me to give her that reaction. She’s like me. When she hurts, she strikes hard and fast, and she doesn’t miss.”

“That doesn’t excuse putting your hands on her,” Killian muttered, his eyes holding mine with unease. “You want her, fine. Take her. Fuck the little bitch out of your system, Knox. Hurting her during a battle is one thing, but putting hands on her because she hurt your fucking feelings isn’t something we do.”

“She asked me how Liliana and Sven would react to what we had happening in the camp,” I admitted, noting their foreheads were creasing. “Then she told me they couldn’t react because they were fucking dead. I pulled back, but I never even saw her injuries past my anger. It just wasn’t soon enough to stop my hand. If she were anyone else, she’d be dead right now. I barely fucking tapped her. Trust me, assholes; no one is more disappointed in me than I am right now.”

I stared up at the cloudless sky, closing my eyes against the rustling wind that cooled the heat of my skin. I’d hurt her, and I hated myself more than I already did because of it. I hadn’t meant to touch her in anger, but she’d ignored my warnings to reach for my rage.

I’d spent all night holding her tiny body against mine, unable to ignore how perfectly she fit against me. I’d never allowed a woman to sleep beside me, not until Aria. Fuck, not even my wife had slept beside me through any part of our marriage. I’d been horrified at the idea of harming Liliana with my sheer size, and her weak body hadn’t been able to handle me.

Aria didn’t cower from me, though, not even my anger. She dug her heels in, and that fire within her burned in challenge. I’d never in my entire life been denied anything until I’d met Aria.

Last night, her cunt dripped down my throat, and it was fucking gloriously delicious. I’d known I could have buried my cock deep into that naked flesh, but I hadn’t. I wanted and craved her willingly to want to fuck me.

She was my enemy, and yet I hated the idea of her in pain or hurt. That realization bothered me. However, the more I was around her, the more I understood that Aria was too perfect for me. Everything within her called to me.

I didn’t
